Mutualism Symbiosis

It was a snowy day outside. Fantastic Dreamers decided not to take a job and simply enjoyed their new life in the mansion. Right now, I'm going out by myself to buy me some furniture and decoration to make our mansion feels more… Cool Headquarters Like…

Only brutal monsters were active during this season. The only ones who would go out on quests while wearing armor were the people from Japan who possessed cheat-like blessings.

And those wandering around town when it was so cold were either idle people like me…

– Or the acquaintances of mine such as those acting suspiciously in front of me.

Those two acquaintances were eyeing a shop suspiciously, so I called out to them.

"Yo, afternoon you two!"

They both literally jumped at my greeting and quickly turned around. "Oh, senpai…" Keith sighed a little. "Don't surprise us like that, not everyone of us is a level thirty adventurer you know?"

But I didn't…

"So, senpai, what are you doing? The other three not with you right now?" Dust asked.

I shook my head. "No, just going out to shop some furniture for our new house," I told him.

"You bought a house?"

I pointed at the general direction of my mansion. "You know that huge mansion in the suburbs? That's the one,"

Keith looked down in deep thought before looking at me in confusion. "Hee, isn't that place haunted?"

"I have Aqua,"

Dust and Keith looked at each other before chuckling among themselves.

"Aah… I envy you so much senpai, to be living under the same roof with three ladies, in a fancy mansion no less," Dust said in a mixture of amazement and self pity.

"Sensei, you mind if we use your female companions as our tonight's dream?"

Huh?

---

A succubus cafe that gives man any erotic dreams of their choosing. It's beautiful, wonderful, symbiotic relationship between the male adventurers and the succubus operating in this town. Seriously, just hearing about the harmony is enough to bring me to tears.

Well, not really, but I think it's pretty darn cool.

"But sensei wouldn't need to visit them right?" Keith asked. "Don't you have a harem already?"

I shook my head and put a hand on Keith's shoulder. "That's where you're wrong young Keith, it is not simply about satisfying one's self in a quest of lust, but also satisfying the other,"

The two of them looked at me in a newfound awe as we stepped into the dark alleyway.

"Wh-what do you mean, senpai?" Dust asked

"Think about this, with this dream, you can practice on any girl of your choosing. Learning about her sweet spot and make her first time closer and closer to heaven, do you understand?"

The two of them nodded in agreement.

"I understand sensei!"

"Yes, thank you for your wisdom senpai!"

With that, we entered the succubus cafe. At a glance, it looked like a normal restaurant, but…

"Welcome–!"

The one greeting us was an onee-san with a body all men dreamed of. Ushered in by the beautiful onee-san with such a tempting body, we entered the shop and found all the patrons to be men.

There were several other onee-sans with alluring figures moving around inside.

I'd be lying if I said that I could keep my calm and cool veteran adventurer composure in check. Heck, I don't even know if I can keep myself from drooling at the sight of all these beautiful onee sans walking around the place.

To be frank, this was causing an urge to well up in my chest, one I could barely suppress.

It was a restaurant, but there were no food or drinks on the table of the patrons. All the customers were staring at a survey form intensely at their table, concentrating hard while writing something down.

After the onee-san led us to empty seats, she held a menu and smiled at us.

"Dear customers, is this your first time visiting us?"

The three of us nodded.

The smile of the onee-san became more brilliant.

"… Well then, do you know what kind of shop this is, and who we are?"

We nodded in silence once more.

That onee-san seemed satisfied and laid the menu down on the table and said:

"Please place your orders. It's fine if you don't order anything either… And please fill in the necessary information on the survey form and hand it in to the cashier when paying your bill."

I looked at the survey form. It's basically trying to fill out the details on our dreams. From our own appearance, the settings, situations, and all the necessary details of the target. It doesn't even have to be too detailed since our brain will fill in the blanks.

Both Keith and Dust is already filling in a heck ton of details.

As for me, well, I'm not idiot. Since my target is someone I know and she's sleeping in the same room as mine, I am going to need to make sure that I can differentiate between dream and reality. So, for the target details I wrote:

'Megumin from Fantastic Dreamers but she wore a bright purple ring on her ring finger and when asked, the ring is made out of an 'Inf*nity St*ne'. She's also oddly obedient and didn't resist much no matter what I do with her. Please take note on the details and sensitivity of her body, make it as realistic as possible.'

As for the setting details, I wrote:

'In a log cabin near the Keele Dungeon, we landed there after a botched teleportation attempt.'

There, a foolproof plan, no stupid encounters because I thought I sleep but actually I didn't. She has to wear a ring made out of the power stone or it just wouldn't work. So now, I just have to turn this forms in and…

"Shit."

Keith and Dust stopped their writing and looked at me.

"What is it senpai/sensei?"

I turned towards them. "Aqua put up a massive barrier around the mansion, the succubus won't be able to sneak in so easily."

"Can't you sleep in a hotel?" Dust asked.

"I'm sleeping with Megumin and she's still not used sleeping alone in a haunted mansion, I don't think she'll let me go like that."

"Hee, that sounds problematic, you sure you can't think of anything? Come on senpai, you're the smartest guy in Axel, I'm sure you can figure it out," Keith encouraged me.

I clicked my tongue and looked at the two of them. "Say, you won't get caught even if you were sleeping in the stables beside your female companion right?"

"Don't worry, you won't move at all, kinda like sleep paralysis… Maybe…"

Okay, let's figure this out. "Dust, Keith, I'm sorry but I'm going to ramble for a bit while I figure this shit out. If you think it wouldn't work, please speak up, I'm counting on you."

"Leave it to us senpai/sensei!"

I took a deep breath before I started brainstorming. "There are two major problems in this scenario. One is Aqua's barrier and two is the fact that I have to sleep next to Megumin. Can I ask Megumin to let us sleep in a hotel somewhere outside?"

"That's suspicious"

"You're too famous"

"Dammit, okay, the mission objective is to get the succubus safely to my room and whisper dreams into my head. Can I teach a succubus how to break through Aqua's barrier?"

"No, Succubus cannot learn skill from adventurer"

"Aqua sama is over powered!"

"Okay, okay… Invitation! I will formally invite a succubus into the house and tell Aqua to put down the barrier. I'll make something up to… I'll tell them that… I want to learn a skill from the succubus! But to do that, she has to demonstrate it to me through the dream!!!"

Dust and Keith looked at each other and they grinned in agreement.

"Yes, that could work!"

"As expected of sensei!"

"But that will only work once… I will need to make up a new excuses for later dreams but…" I sighed a little. "Fine, I'll let future Kazuma figure it out, for now," I waved my hand at a waitress. "Excuse me, onee san! Can I ask you something, it's about this order."

I sat down in small office-like room. Sitting in front of me is a pink haired succubus with voluptuous figure wearing secretary uniform. I couldn't help but gulp nervously at the sight of her as I explained the situation to her.

"Kazuma kun, isn't it? Forgive me if I ask, but why go great length for a dream when the real thing is literally next to you?"

I looked down for a moment and sighed a little. "Because I have no experience… So I'm hoping I can learn from the dreams so that her first time wouldn't, you know, suck…"

Goddammit I sound like a complete loser now aren't I?

The succubus giggled a little at that. "This is the first time I've ever had someone coming to my shop with that purpose," she stood up from her position and put both of her hands on the table, giving me a full look on her melons. "Tell you what sweetie? You got yourself a deal, I will walk through the front door for dinner today and I guarantee you the best dream ever, mkay?"

"Th-thank you! How much do I have to pay for this?"

"Ara, the magic and vitality of Axel's strongest hero is more than enough," she giggled some more. "You don't have to pay me at all Kazuma kun, now go back and have some dinner, okay?"

"O-okay, thank you…"
