Hiryuu Range

We finally arrived at our destination: Hiryuu Range

Since it would have taken us about half a day to get there from Saint Bell, we decided to use a ‘Turtle Car’, which is a carriage pulled by Rock Turtles instead of horses, so we could get there faster.

I think they were able to reach a speed of about 25 miles per hour.

The trip was less bumpy than I had imagined, and was indeed quite pleasant.

But its only problem was its cost.

The fare was a shocking 5,000 Col.

A round trip would cost us a whopping 10,000 Col.

The driver would only be able to wait for us for one day while we were out there exploring.

Given the risk of being attacked by monsters before reaching our destination, we wouldn’t be able to do business without conceding that much.

With that in mind, this wouldn’t pay off unless we managed to take a cool dragon back home with us… no matter what it takes

“Ooh! So this is the Hiryuu Range?”

White smoke was coming out of the exposed rock at the top of the mountain.

By the way, this part of the Hiryuu Range apparently has an active volcano that erupts every 10 years or so.

I have never seen such a vigorous volcano when I was in Japan, so I was naturally filled with excitement.

“Uhh~. I tried changing into the ‘Fire Fairy Clothes’, but how do I look?”

“Ah… Um, let’s see… I guess it really suits you?”

“Pff… haha! What? What’s with that kind of answer? I wonder if my charming body is too stimulating for you, Souta…”

“…”

Crap!

The fact that it’s not really a problem makes it even more frustrating!

Aphrodite already had a bombshell of a body, so much that it can make any man lose their mind, but it seemed like those ‘Fire Fairy Clothes’ she was wearing were making it even worse… or better.

No matter how you look at it, I was in no shape to be climbing any volcanoes.

Her huge breasts were already too much to handle under normal circumstances, but they were so highlighted by the new clothes that I felt like I was going to lose it.

“Thank you so much for the new armor! I’ll make sure to put it to good use.”

“Uhhh… Now that I look at it… I’m a bit embarrassed to show this to you, Souta…”

When I summoned Carolina and Cielle from the ball, the two of them had already changed into the ‘Fire Fairy Clothes’.

Both of them were wearing jackets and trousers in order to avoid showing too much skin, but yeah. Definitely too sexy for just adventuring.

“Come on, Souta! Let’s go! Now that I think about it, I’ve never seen a dragon before. I’m looking forward to seeing what it looks like!”

“Yeah, let’s go.”

Aphrodite started climbing the mountain, and I followed right behind her tender butt.

Easy, easy now.

There was no time to be charmed with the three of them.

After all, if we didn’t return by sunset, the Turtle Car would charge us a cancellation fee and we would have to return to the city on foot.

So we had a time limit to complete this mission due to our means of transportation.
