Mushroom Biome

"I think we should enter in single." I said to Lif. But she seems unconvinced.

"No, let's go in together. I want to do that thing now." I didn't push it much because I felt the determination in her eyes.

We went into the river and it was really cold, as if the Lif don't care much, but it's really cold.

She started washing her body with soaps she took from her bag. She finished her job, and now it's time for 'What he wanted so much'.

"You've been peeking on me since just now, and now it's my turn to have fun with your body!" she said and jumped on my body, I've lost my virginity now.

Joking aside, she washes my body, and she's very good at it.

"If I remember correctly, people did not have soap and similar things." one thing I'm really surprised about is that there are no people, but there are druids.

"You're wrong, there is soap and similar things, but it is more used by kings and people close to that rank. As for us, everyone has it!" she said the last sentence with her chest stretch. After all, this is really a matter to be proud of, the value of soap is very, very high.

"Really? Isn't it hard to provide soap to all druids?"

"No, usually everyone finds the materials and we do it with mana. Since the whole race is female, we are good at external appearance."

"Hey Lif, control where you're touching." Her hands are slowly slipping down.

"Interesting, don't like bone. But how does it get tough?" She is playing like a child who has just been given a toy, I hit her on the head and she pulled her hand away apologetically.

'I'm glad we're stopped here, we could have done that thing if we'd gone further. Actually, I want to, but... Well, I have more important things.'

"Hey Lif, you know how to make a mana shield, right?"

"Yes. Why do you ask?" she should have been surprised that I asked at once.

"I've only seen the mana shield made orbicular, can it be made in other ways as well?" It's a question I'm very curious about.

"It is possible, but it requires much more attention. It's easy to imagine orbicular and square shapes, but when you go out of that, the job becomes difficult. You're probably asking to wrap it around your whole body, unfortunately it doesn't work that way..." She said and gestured for me to stop with her hand.

"Hush!!!"

The arrow from Lif's bow had shot a leopard-like creature in the throat.

"A mana shield moves by adhering to its center, so once it's done, it doesn't disappear until its mana is over. If it was the way you said, then you need to move according to that shield, since it will remain surrounding your entire body at that moment. That's why mana shields move 1-2 meters away from the person's center, I don't know if you understand. After all, I'm not a teacher or anything like that."

"From what I understand, the mana shield is something like solid and... Something like the moon."

"Moon? What's that?"

"Isn't that the earth-bound satellite? It's that." I pointed to a celestial body that does not look much like the same as my own world.

"Aquirus, this is really a problem. That thing's name is Nephius." she said, and she still has her eye on my dick from time to time, I think I'll be hunting like a rabbit soon.

"Lif, let's replenish our water supply if there is such a thing as a river soon." It came to me when I looked at the water in the canteen in my hand and saw the bottom.

"I doubt if the water that is here is drinkable. I can create some with mana if you want." She said this by creating a water spell in his hand.

"I doubt if that created water is drinkable." I said directly what I was thinking, so it doesn't seem very healthy to me.

"I think this kind of thinking is common in people. Believe me, you won't find a cleaner water than." she said and drank the water she created himself, I bought some because I had to, but I won't drink this water for now.

And we really didn't have a lot. We are no more than 1 week away from the Mars Kingdom.

"Aquirus, if you want to be careful, I smell poisonous creatures here."

"..."Well, I guess I screwed up. A scorpion stung me a few hours ago, but I'm still fine. Either it's a late effect or that scorpion was non-venomous.

Ehh, probably won't be a problem.

We had to go around it because there was a 30-meter mountain in front of us.

We found the abandoned January mine, we dived in because the Lif was curious.

"Something smells very nice from this mine." The Lif is moving forward with a watering mouth.

'I think these druids are crazy.' I'm probably right all the way through.

"Ahh!!" something like a rock hit my back and I fell to the ground.

I looked back and saw a 50 cm tall rock-like creature. I kicked him, but I was the one who got hurt because he was too hard.

"Lif, do you know these?" I asked, it looks a little like the geodude in that pokemon game. Of course, it is a little different as a basic building element.

"Yes, these Guulum. They mainly live in mines, and their defenses are generally very harsh." When she finished, she looked at me as if she was surprised, so I asked if something had happened, and Lif opened her mouth.

"Where did you learn about that strange movement? I don't remember you doing this before."

"Well, when I fell to the ground, my body did it on its own." When I fell to the ground, my body jumped into the air and I landed a spinning kick with both hands resting on the ground.

"Aquirus... Ahhh! Forget it!! Come on, get up and let's keep cleaning up this mine."

She seems a little angry, but I don't understand why... Or I choose not to understand, even I don't know.

After about half an hour, we were able to reach a wide clearing.

"... Wow!!"

"Really, wow."

An underground biome of glowing mushrooms and strange trees. It's like I'm in a fantasy game.

"You must have heard of such a place before, Lif."

"No, we Druids don't have much to do with the underground. This is a first for me too. And it's also like the source of this beautiful smell is here." It annoyed me a little that she kept talking while her mouth was watering.

"Wipe the side of your mouth first, Lif. Seriously."

"E-excuse me." At least she has some shame.

"So, is it dangerous here?" I asked, it's impossible not to see the amount of sports in the air with the eye.

"Well, probably yes. But I went through druid training. I mean, I'll be fine, you?"

'What is it that these druids can and can't give by education?!' i thought, they're probably trying to create a superior race.

"Even if there is something... I'll be fine." As long as there is no interference with the cycle, this is like a perfect training camp for me.

"Aquirus, watch me carefully. Do your foot exactly as I showed you and direct the center of gravity downwards." she said, and like a cliff, she slid down from the ground using only her foot.

I tried to do the same as he did, and halfway through I lost my balance and twisted my mouth and face.

"Look at you, hahahah!!" She started laughing, God knows when she'll stop.

"... Don't laugh and help me get up." I held out my hand, and when the laughing fit was over, she helped me to get up.

It's really more beautiful when you look at it closer.

"... Really good," did I just shoot my inner thought out? Shit.

"Eh..? Well, I think it's really nice here."she corrected me. Thanks, Lif.

It's the 3rd hour of our arrival here, and there's really a lot to be surprised about. All the living things here have been taken over by fungi.

"Do you think this is normal?! I mean, look. All living things!"

"Aquirus, calm down. I know this is ridiculous too, but believe me, your body is more ridiculous. Also, I think I heard about this kind of mushroom when I was little." She put her hands to his chin, thought for about 5 minutes.

"I think those name is a Lying Mushroom. And this doesn't take over like you said, it just plays with its simple emotions and makes its attack... And... And, I think I missed a detail, but I don't think it's very important."

"Are you sure? The detail that is always forgotten in movies and so on is the most important., " I said.

Lif tilted her head to the side and said, "The movie? I don't know what that is, but rest assured. It wasn't such an important detail. When the main body dies, they blow up the body or what. It was something similar to that."

"Well, there's nothing to eat here." said Lif. And I think she's right.

"The supplies we brought with us will last for a maximum of 2 days."

"I'm sleepy, come with me. We will build a safe space."

After a walk of about 40 minutes, we reached a place like the border of the region.

"The noble soul, hear my voice and answer my prayer...."

I stepped aside because she was doing some kind of magic, and she carved the inside of the whole mountain a little bit, and it's 20 meters above the ground, it's very solid and invisible from the outside. She did a bunker-style thing.

"You ... Why didn't you do it before?!"

"... Hold me." After she said that, I managed to hold it without falling towards the ground.

"That you saw... Like, it's exhausting."

"Well, how are we going to get up there." after saying that, she hit her face. And after she told me to use soul magic, she pass out.

'I think I'm going to get a bit tired.'

Note: There was a big earthquake in my country, maybe you have heard. Even if I didn't feel it firsthand, it hit my psychologically. I had no writing at all, although it was on February 6th, I'm just coming to myself. Schools open in 2 days. I also don't know why I wrote this, maybe I wanted to spill my guts. Anyway, thanks for reading.
