The Five

"Together with Bloom-san?! Absolutely not!!"

　Lady Staaf said as she hid behind me.

　I'm completely scared of blooms...!?

"Now, now, calm down. We were just looking for someone to join us in the dungeon. Don't you think that's a nice coincidence?"

"Didn't you apply for dungeon training after hearing our story?"

"There are three people on your side and two on our side, making a total of five. We meet the conditions to enter the dungeon. It must be fate!"

　There are some people who easily feel that something is fate.

　....

　yeah?

"There are three of us, but two on your side? There's only one, you know?"

"There's More, isn't there? He's my servant, have you forgotten?"

　No, I remember it.

　You must be Claymore, the man who accompanied Bloom, a nobleman, as his bodyguard, right?

"But Moa-san isn't here, is it okay to go ahead without her permission?"

"She is my servant. She cannot go against my will. She will act according to my decisions. That's all."

　....

　Well then, I'll try and act like a servant too.

"My lady, what may I do for you?"

"Absolutely! Absolutely not!!"

　So it just wasn't meant to be this time.

"Wait, wait, wait. Are you sure that's okay?"

"After all, a servant can't go against his master's wishes, right?"

You said "absolutely" twice, do you really hate it that much?

"But this is probably the only way you can enter the dungeon right now. If you don't accept us, you'll just have to waste months waiting for the upperclassmen to open the dungeon."

　That's also true.

　The young lady groaned, her voice heavy as if she was coughing up blood after a long period of anguish...

"I understand, I will accept you, Bloom-sama...!!"

"My Ladyyyyyyyy!!"

　He instinctively embraces the young lady, who has now made up her mind.

"This training is important to both Sao-san and Caliba-san. I can't let it be delayed just because of my selfishness...!"

"How kind of you, my lady!"

　She cares about her subordinates! I want to make a decoction of her nail dirt and make that beautiful Takarazuka actress drink it!

"I understand. Then, Mr. Thao, Ms. Caliba, Ms. Starf, Ms. Bloom, and Mr. Claymore, we will form a party and submit an application to conduct dungeon training."

　Teacher Whip makes good progress.

　Isn't it okay to be a little touched by the young lady's dedication?

"But there's one problem with that."

"What is it?"

"Since you have not completed the required courses, Clay More, we cannot grant you permission for optional training."

　Oh my gosh.

"You should be taking a test now to see if you meet the graduation standard, and if you pass that, you'll be given permission to do your training. Either way, we'll know the results next week."

"There's no problem! I'll make sure Moa passes the exam and accompany me to the dungeon!"

　So, Mr. Moa isn't here?

　While I felt sorry for her, who was being swayed by Bloom's unfounded confidence, I once again thought to myself how lucky I am that our master is Lady Starf.

◆

　Although we ended up having to wait, it would be much better if the two months were shortened to a week.

　Moa passed the test and was given permission for independent training.

　However, we were not given the freedom to choose what to do during our independent training.

　He took us to the student training dungeon.

"The talks have progressed without my knowledge...!?"

"Stay strong"

　Leaving the royal capital and travelling less than a day's distance, there is a small village, and within that village is the dungeon.

　It's a small dungeon.

　Apparently, the dungeon had been explored long ago, its boss monsters defeated, and it was no longer dangerous or appealing at all, but the government had bought the rights to it and was managing it as a practice dungeon for students.

　They took a horse-drawn carriage to get there, but because Bloom and More were with them they couldn't indulge in sex in the carriage.

　My sister and my lady were also feeling an itch in their bottoms, perhaps remembering the time they had sex in the carriage on the way from their hometown to the royal capital, but they managed to endure it.

　Since there are outsiders inside the carriage, it's a public space after all.

　I still feel there is a gap in solidarity among the members.

　When they finally arrived at the student practice dungeon, a man was waiting for them.

"Welcome, newbies! To the entrance of Hell's Cauldron! I've been hired by the Royal School to manage this dungeon, and to instruct the students who use it and ensure their safety!!"

"Thank you very much."

　I've heard the story from Teacher Whip.

　Follow the instructions of the local staff.

"Whip-san has spoken to me! There have been some cheeky guys this year, so he wants you to give them a hand. But it looks like this year is going to be a bumper crop!"

"A good harvest?"

"Well, to have conquered the first year course at such an early age and attempted to challenge the dungeon, I have to admit that it is quite a talent! Still, there are about one genius of that caliber in every twenty students every year!"

　is that so.

　Yeah, they get new students every year, so I guess I can see the pattern.

"Still, there aren't many years when enough talented people gather together to form a party! At most there are only one or two, and since that's not enough to form a party, they have to wait obediently for the upperclassmen to open a dungeon! Gathering enough people like this and coming here early... well, I guess it happens once every five years!"

"Is it okay to brag about it?"

"Yeah yeah! Get your pride going while you can! The role of this dungeon is to crush it!"

　The old man who was the dungeon manager had a malicious smile on his face.

"No matter how many brilliant geniuses you gather, they are only at student level. Once they enter society, their lead will be nothing more than the comparison of two acorns. This dungeon is where you can experience the harshness of the world!"

　Although this dungeon was prepared for practice, it was extremely close to a real battle, and it certainly seemed different from the lessons they had taken so far.

　Is this the students' first baptism of fire in real combat?

"Even if you nearly die, I'll come and save you, so go and get beaten up without worrying! You'll have the experience of having your pride crushed in your first year. Think of that as the result of your training!"

"That's none of your business. I don't want you to lump us together with the average people."

　Bloom, the Takarazuka lady, hits back head-on at the old man's insults.

"In that case, let's conquer this dungeon on our first try and show off our talent and ability! When that happens, you will have to admit that we are not one in ten, but one in a hundred geniuses!"

　I said to the dungeon manager.

"You want me to right these youthful mistakes, right?"

"That's right."

　And now we finally enter the dungeon.

◆

"Yay! It's a dungeon!"

　A maze! A trap! Tentacles! Aphrodisiac gas!

　A female adventurer is captured in a monster house and a goblin's nest and gang-raped.

　Furthermore, they gather up the women they capture and turn them into a human ranch, where they line them up and rape them.

　Wall ass trap!

　A room you can't leave unless you have sex!

　There is none of that!!

"It's just a normal dungeon..."

　Well, since it's a practice dungeon for students, it's not like it has any particularly edgy attributes.

　While you may encounter monsters inside, they are nothing more than weaklings, at most similar to small slimes.

　They are not our enemies, as we have been approved to complete the course early, but we will destroy them from the moment we encounter them.

"Hmph! This isn't even a warm-up! Isn't it just a false intimidation to think that the severity of real combat is just a false alarm!?"

　The most energetic of them all is Miss Bloom, who instantly burns any slime she sees with magic, regardless of whether it's coming towards her or fleeing.

"Bloom-sama's vocation is to be a magician."

　Moa explains.

"But in my hometown, she's a prodigy who read all the normal magical books by the age of ten. The lord is blessed with many children, but among them, Bloom is the most talented and is loved by everyone. When I was assigned as her guard, they made it very clear to me that I must protect her at all costs."

"I see..."

"But it's pathetic, as soon as I enrolled I lost to you and tarnished Lady Bloom's honor. Things haven't gone well since then, and I was the last one here to be allowed to graduate early…!"

"Isn't that amazing enough?"

　Since you've accomplished something that would normally take a whole year to complete early on, graduating early is a sign of being an excellent student, right?

"No you can't! As long as I can't defeat you, I won't be worthy to be Lady Bloom's servant!"

"Why me?"

"Why do you think Bloom-sama is always teasing your husband? She's trying to lure you away whenever she gets the chance."

　Huh? Why?

　My abilities and talents will forever belong to Lady Staaf.

　And Miss Starf's breasts, ass, and pussy, her sexual love, and the right to impregnate her are all mine.

"That just shows how impressed I am with your fighting style. During the friendly match on the first day of school, I was completely helpless against you. Even if you weren't Lady Bloom, if you saw that, I'm sure you would want to fight with me instead."

"But I'm Lady Staaf's bodyguard..."

"That's my only salvation. While Lady Bloom is confused and not knowing how to steal people's belongings, I need to somehow get stronger and surpass you. And I need to get Lady Bloom to acknowledge that I'm more worthy of serving by her side!"

　....

　It seems that More has her own goals and is working hard.

　A hardworking woman is beautiful.

　When I thought about it that way, More began to look attractive to me for the first time.

"..."

"Buuuuuh?!"

　Before I knew it, I was hugging Moa and kissing her.

　Her lips were sweaty and salty.

"Ah, mm, slurp... mmm!? ...What!? What's this all of a sudden!?"

"Moa-san looked cute so I just had to."

"Don't just kiss me out of nowhere like that! ...Ahh, my first kiss was with a guy like that...?!"

　That's good.

　My first kiss was stolen from me in such a passionate way.

"Bloom-sama… you haven't noticed, have you? You're on the front lines, busy wiping out the weaklings…!?"

"So can you do more?"

　I got carried away and grabbed Mr. Moa's butt, but he punched me with his fist.

"Don't mess with me! If you do it again I'll tell the teacher and have you expelled!"

"Guh...?! That's a problem...?!"

　He made a threat that actually worked on me.

　Even though I had finally come to recognize More as an attractive woman, I had no choice but to suppress my lewd desires.

"Anyway, I'm definitely going to surpass you! I'm going to train you thoroughly in this dungeon training! Be prepared!"

　I learned that everyone has their own struggles.

◆

　By the way, looking at this party again, I realized that it's a solid combination.

　My sister (knight) and More (swordsman) were on the front lines, Bloom (magician) was providing covering fire with magic, and Lady Starf (cleric) was solidifying the rear guard with healing magic.

　This is a well-balanced party that could be found in a textbook.

"Not really. The only drawback is that there are no thieves or rangers."

　Miss Moa picked up on my monologue and pointed it out.

"Thiefs are essential to conquering dungeons because they can remove locks and see through traps. Well, if you, a member of some incomprehensible class called a 'Pole Master', could do that, you'd be perfect."

　I replied to More-san, who had a malicious smile on her face.

"Yes, I can."

"picture?"

　Luckily there was a door ahead of me that was locked, so I started picking the lock.

　It was unlocked in forty seconds.

"Why!?"

"Because [the rod maker] is good at putting stuff in holes."

　If you pretend to be a thief, you can also steal.

　It's your heart.
