A Hentai System in the World of Danmachi.

Chapter 138 – Gilgamesh.

The swarm of monsters was quickly closing in on us. We took battle positions and waited. Since we were practically surrounded, there wasn't much we could do.

But to our surprise, Luan decided to act on his own. He didn't want to fight with the three of us.

"This many Orcs could be a bit dangerous." I have confidence in my strength and trust Tiona and Tione, but this is the first time something like this has happened. We could handle it easily if it were just one to ten Orcs, but there are so many that I can't count.

An anomaly inside the dungeon.

"And it's not just Orcs." Silverbacks, Hard Armoreds, Bad Bats, Imps. All these monsters were working together to create an enormous, extremely deadly monster army.

Did this happen because of Luan's magic?

No, these monsters were already together before; they couldn't have decided to team up and form an army in just a few minutes.

"Tiona! Tione! Get ready to fight!" I shouted.

"Yes!"

"Right!"

They both responded.

I could see sweat dripping down their faces. They're nervous!

I'm calm enough, but I still have a bad feeling.

"Where did Luan go?!" Tiona shouted.

"I don't know. He started running to my left at high speed. He's heading straight for the group of monsters!"

"Is he insane?! He could get himself killed!"

"I trust him," I said. "I'm sure he'll be fine. Let's focus only on our battle."

"... Urgh. This will be a bit difficult."

In seconds, the monsters were already very close.

And so, a deadly battle began.

But the fight ended sooner than we expected.

As I was facing several Orcs head-on, a wall of fire suddenly appeared around me.

Not only around me but around Tiona and Tione as well.

The wall of fire expanded, engulfing the nearby monsters and incinerating them. They were all killed instantly.

"Sorry for the delay." Luan suddenly appeared right next to us.

"Huh?"

He just appeared. Did he teleport or something?

Luan still has many secrets.

*Luan's POV*

The moment I finished showing them my magic, I felt something was off. I had sensed a few monsters before, but suddenly, multiple presences appeared all at once.

It was as if monsters had suddenly spawned from all directions.

"But they're far away." They must be about a kilometer. Maybe almost two kilometers? The monsters were approaching rapidly and would reach us at any moment.

Depending on the monsters, this could get dangerous.

Then, new system notifications arrived.

[ Attention! Urgent mission! ]

[ Your magic has provoked the wrath of all monsters on this floor; be cautious and protect the three women in your care! ]

[ Do not let any of them get hurt and kill all the monsters! ]

[ Reward: 50 points. ]

[ Bonus: Your favorability with the three characters will increase by 50%. ]

Oh? A new bonus! I have to do this.

After handing Ais her sword, I activated my abilities [Dvergr Enhance], [Strength], and [Speed] all at once. Then, I started running at high speed in one direction.

I was moving so fast that the fog around me began to disperse.

I reached the monsters in a second.

As I approached, I stopped running and clicked my tongue. "There are more monsters than I expected." In front of me were many Orcs, and between their legs, numerous Imps and other monsters were hiding.

The only ones not hiding were the Bad Bats, who immediately flew towards me to attack.

I swung my dagger, and with a few moves, I sliced three of them in half. But there were too many of them. As if they had a neural link, they all flew at me.

I kept slicing many of them in half while being pushed back.

To deal with this number of monsters, the best option is magic with a large attack range. I ran backward to escape the Bad Bats, then used [Dark Magic] to create spears that rained down from the sky onto the monster horde. Grotesque sounds filled the air as the spears pierced their bodies.

A large number of monsters were killed.

I got their attention.

Good.

Many of the monsters stopped heading towards Ais, Tiona, and Tione and turned to me, starting to surround me.

When they were all around, I created a barrier of flames that expanded, engulfing all the monsters. The flames were hotter than usual, glowing with an intense orange hue.

Even my skin felt like it was burning.

The fire and brightness also impaired my vision, so I closed my eyes.

When I opened them again, the monsters around me had already vanished. But more of them were coming.

I wanted to draw them all to me. The more monsters I attract, the better.

Ais is very strong, but I don't know if they can handle this.

I was only able to lure the monsters on this side. I need to get back to help them. I'll try to reduce the number of monsters as much as possible before I get there.

The effects of the abilities I used to enhance my strength and agility faded, and my speed dropped significantly.

Even so, I'm fast as hell.

The monsters also increased their speed, but it still wasn't enough.

While running towards where Ais and the others were, I continued casting large-scale magic, killing every monster nearby.

The number of monsters dropped significantly. When Ais came into my view, I noticed a lot of monsters. All of the monsters were focusing their attention on the three girls. That's why the mission is to protect them.

Tsk!

Then, I used teleportation.

I appeared beside Ais, and she didn't even notice. 

I used my fire magic.

I created two flame barriers: one around me and Ais and one around Tiona and Tione.

It was similar to the magic I used before but even stronger. The barriers began to expand, swallowing all nearby monsters. Once the two protections touched, they merged into a large dome of flames that continued to grow.

"Sorry for the delay." I smiled at Ais.

"Huh?" She looked confused.

But there was no time to explain.

I pointed my dagger to the "sky", and then used [Dark Magic] to create multiple blades.

I felt like Gilgamesh.

The blades, controlled by me, began to fly at high speed in all directions.

The monsters were pierced by them and died instantly.
