The calm...

The mood for sex was gone long ago, so Victor and Eva decided to shift the time for later in the night instead. They dressed up again and Victor sold off his mobile wheelchair for 3'011 Gold Coins and the crutch for 249 Gold, pulling his gold counter back to 108'825, adding with the hourly income of 80 thousand gold coins he received some time ago while he was heading to the beehive.

With Eva's support, Victor began to walk forward with his repaired leg. Fortunately it had been only 11 days with a broken leg, and he already walked with one leg a few times through those 11 days. Because of that, it didn't take much time for Victor to recover his ability to walk.

By the time Victor and Eva arrived at the main road again, Victor was fully capable of standing on his own feet.

Their presence attracted everyone's attention as the four remaining traveling partners turned in their direction.

"Oh, you guys are ba-What the…" Just as Luka was welcoming them, he paused when he noticed that Victor was walking on his own feet, without any support holding him up.

"Wah! You are walking!" Penny excitedly spoke as she rushed at Victor, while Alice and Granberia stared at him with wide eyes for a couple of seconds before they recovered from their surprise.

They already had the talk, there is no use getting surprised over and over again… Although they were curious about what he had bought to recover his leg in a way that not even the Monster Lord could.

"Sup." Victor greeted them while Penny hugged his legs with both arms. The additional weight made Victor lose his balance again and fall on his butt, but he wasn't hurt in the slightest. The only thing that came out of him was a chuckle as he stroked Penny's head. Her floppy dog ears twitched in reaction from being headpatted while her smile was getting wider.

"Victor, you can walk again!" Luka exclaimed in surprise as he also approached him. Luka extended one arm in his direction, which Victor grasped immediately before he was being pulled up with an impressive amount of strength coming from the little guy.

Once Victor was on his feet, his smile was gone as he blankly stared at his hand that was pulled by Luka. He shifted his gaze from his hand to Luka and asked in a surprised tone. "How the hell did you get this strong? You wouldn't even be able to hurt a Slug Girl before."

"What do you mean? I'm as strong as I always have been." Luka merely tilted his head in curiosity, which prompted Victor to unconsciously let one of his eyebrows twitch in reaction.

'Well… As expected from the level up, I guess…?' To be fair, this entire world was part of a visual novel disguised as a RPG. There are still many things that he doesn't know of, and maybe one of those secrets will be the answer for how in the name of God was Luka able to struggle out from the binding attacks of certain powerful monsters while still being limited to a human body.

"Nevermind that… Anyway, yes, I can finally walk again. Though, I am still going to get to the Treasure Cave for the money."

"That's great! Now you can also defend yourself! ...Wait, I mean… Well, you can also fight while standing up." Luka awkwardly scratched the back of his head as he remembered that Victor saved himself almost every time, even when he had one broken leg.

"Yes, yes, I get it, whatever. Anyway, the talk with the Bee Girls ended great; they are willing to split off a small group of them so that they can teach the harpies how to be beekeepers. Now let's get off from here and return to Iliasburg."

"Okay!" Penny hastily nodded as they grouped together around the road while Victor retrieved his car from his inventory, and everyone entered in their pre-set seats.

"Alright, the driving should be smoother now…" Victor muttered as he held both of his legs over the accelerator and the clutch and began to drive much faster than before, when it would take a bit of time to start moving.

And just like that, the travelers headed west, towards Iliasburg, and fortunately without any interruption in the way. According to Granberia, apparently, no monsters around here would throw themselves in front of the car, but some stronger ones would not hesitate to do it just to have some 'snacks'.

…

Another hour had passed and it was 11 o'clock. By that time, Victor had gained two more loads of money: one from around the time he started the car after showing up with both of his legs fixed, and the other came right now, which summed up together to 270'229.

To be honest, he couldn't help but smile once he saw that number. It wasn't even two weeks ago that he was struggling to get a total of 10 Gold, and now he is on the way to become a millionaire. He only needs some more time and he can even rent out a room in Sutherland Inn without discounts if he wants so.

Victor had parked at the bottom of the hill that was holding up Iliasburg, roughly around where Granberia was waiting for them yesterday. Everyone jumped off the car, with Alice and Granberia taking their human forms again while Victor simply put a blue ribbon over Penny's head rather than the hat. After all, if Iliasburg accepted Amira, they shouldn't say anything about an innocent Dog Girl, right? Besides, unless she flaps her ears, nobody is going to notice anything.

After pulling the car within his inventory, he clasped his hands together as he looked at the grouped team in front of him. "Alright, it is still 1 hour before lunch, so how about enjoying this hour by ourselves before we meet up at the central plaza to eat together? You know, have our fun separately. I can hand 500 Gold Coins to each of you so you also won't lack money."

Luka raised an eyebrow and asked. "Are you sure? That's a lot of money…"

"Heh…"

"Hehehe…"

"Pfft… Hahahahaha!"

Victor simply went into a full-blown laughter like he was being told a funny joke as he handed over four bags with precisely 500 Gold Coins for each bag. Luka, Alice, Eva, and Granberia each received one bag.

"Heh… Just take it, I already have quite a sum within me." Soon, he finished laughing and replied to Luka's question. For some reason, Luka felt like he had been insulted by Victor laughing over him…

"Anyway, remember. Fun for one hour and then everyone at the central plaza, okay?" As if he was a teacher telling a group of students how to behave on a trip away from school, the other five nodded before they made up their four groups: Alice is with Granberia, Victor is with Penny, and Luka and Eva went alone, each by themselves.

With that kind of formation, everyone entered Iliasburg.

Victor pulled Penny over his head and let her sit on his shoulders. She was just a bit heavy, but nothing he couldn't handle… Eva was heavier, but she… Huh?

Now that he thought about it, it is quite hard reading her. One time she is quite friendly, another time she acts like a normal hero would against monsters, and then there is her lusty self. Boy, that girl is weird and sexy as fuck at the same time… If it wasn't for her usage of Holy Energy and her being a baptized Heroine, he would have thought that she might be another monster in disguise like the succubus in Iliasville.

Maybe it is because he actually doesn't know her from the franchise, so she is more of a stranger to him than Alice and Luka, who are characters he both played and interacted with in the visual novel and the RPG sequel.

Victor immediately walked through the main road, separating from the others. He looked up to Penny and asked. "Hey Penny, what do you want to do?"

"I am hungry!" Penny answered, making Victor shrug. "Alright, let's check some food stalls for a snack. You will have to wait for lunch after eating it, okay?"

"Yes!" Penny pumped up a fist in the air. Some people couldn't help but watch the siblings-like couple and smile in reaction, although some were a bit weirded out at the fact that a '13 years old' girl is riding on her 'brother's' shoulders.

Victor walked past the people on the road and soon reached the shopping street. There was a weapon shop at his left, a tool shop some buildings away from the former, and many stalls selling different products which were either made up of carpets with random stuff or proper stalls that sold potions or food.

Yeah, Victor could have bought something from his store, but he felt like eating something made here instead. It's like eating the same kind of food served both at home and in a restaurant: the mental image adds up with the taste. He also has that kind of privilege to decide what to eat.

Victor approached a food stall selling fast food and glanced at the side, seeing a signboard with different kinds of snacks that the young boy at the other side sells. Hamburger, hot dogs, chili dogs, potato croquettes, fried chicken, and…?

"...Hot Dog Deluxe?" Victor raised an eyebrow, and the young boy elaborated once he noticed Victor's curious expression.

"Sir, the Hot Dog Deluxe is similar to a hot dog, but we use a large potato croquette as the bread and also deep-fried meat along with the normal ingredients for a hot dog. Its tastiness is only comparable to the amount of calories it contains, so it is not advised for people with heart problems."

Victor stared at the guy with wide eyes and pointed at him with a grin on his face. "You genius bastard, bring up one of that stuff and a normal hot dog for the little girl here."

At Victor's excited tone, the young boy merely smiled and nodded. "Right away!"

In front of Victor, the boy mashed potatoes together and split the potato dough in half with a knife. After doing that, he stuck the entire thing within egg yolk, spread bread crumbs all over it, and left the potato croquette in a pot filled with boiling oil being held by four iron sticks over a fire.

Penny watched the boiling croquette to pass time, focused on it. Meanwhile, the young boy brought up a normal loaf of bread and cut it on its midsection before he took a sausage from his stock and left many half-deep cuts over and over again on its entire length. He left the sausage on a rather primitive grill at the side of the pot.

After that, he brought out another sausage and this time stuck it within a bowl filled with egg yolk before rolling the wet sausage over breadcrumbs, and then left it on the frier together with the croquette.

It had been only 5 minutes, but the young boy then retrieved the sausage from the grill using metallic pincers and placed it within the sliced bread. He looked up to Penny and asked with a smile. "What do you want in it, young lady?"

Penny smiled in enthusiasm and replied. "Everything!"

At Victor's nod in agreement, the young boy proceeded to put lettuce, garlic, pepper, and yogurt in the bread, before putting in the wurstel, and then he spreaded both ketchup, mayo, and mustard over it. To add a last touch, he stuck the hot dog inside a small package that he handed over to Penny.

"Here you go, young lady."

"Thank you!" Penny cheerfully thanked the food vendor and grasped the hot dog, before eating it with taste. The young boy chuckled and asked. "Are you two siblings?"

Victor shook his head. "No, we are more like traveling friends. We and our other friends are stopping here until lunchtime is over before we can proceed elsewhere."

"Oh? And where will you go?"

"Well… It isn't decided yet, but I think we will take care of a problem that was reported to us. It was something about monster bandits, I don't know if you heard of them."

"Oh, them…" The young boy nodded in understanding. "I'm sure you heard that they also have a dragon and a vampire within their ranks, right?"

Victor nodded, and the young boy continued. "I don't know if it can help you, but I saw children working for them. They were very young, probably around 9 or 10 years old. I remember a little lamia that stole bread from the shop over there…" He pointed to a bakery on the other side of the road.

"Monster children?" Victor asked with a fake curiosity, since he already knows what is going on behind the rumors.

The young boy nodded. "Yeah. I don't know why children would belong to a bandit group with a vampire and a dragon, but it is certainly not for any normal reason. Who knows, maybe they are all a family, or the bandits are trying to help the poor; after all, the bandits only stole food and important resources.

They never touched gold or other precious things… Still, don't let pity take you. Who knows when the bandits will raid this city? Some soldiers still haven't recovered from the invasion of the Heavenly Knight two days ago, so this is the best moment for them to attack Iliasburg."

"I understand." Victor nodded while the young boy grabbed the deep-fried croquette and sausage from the frier with pincers and put them on the counter. He spread over the same ingredients that went on Penny's hot dog and then served it to Victor within a package.

"Here you go, it will be 1 Gold Coin for the hot dog and 2 for the Hot Dog Deluxe."

Victor placed four Gold Coins on the counter before taking his own serving. "Take one as a tip for the information."

The young boy gratefully picked the four coins and replied. "Good luck with your job and have a nice time here. Be careful when eating that caloric bomb, sir."

"Haha. Good luck to you too, boy." Victor smiled at the young boy as he walked away. With one hand, he was holding Penny's left leg hanging on his chest while the other hand was holding his snack.

Now it's time to find a place where he can give an extended view over his system…

…

Alice and Granberia were currently walking across the repopulated roads that were deserted the last time the dragonkin in disguise was here.

"So this is how things go in Iliasburg?" Granberia commented as she looked at the peaceful area in front of her. She had seen this kind of scene many times during her youth before she became a Heavenly Knight, but she actually never visited Ilias Continent before, so she didn't know much of this place.

"You thought it was more militaristic?" Alice asked with a soft tone. Her attitude towards Granberia had been totally different from when she was together with Luka, Victor, and Eva. Right now, Alice seemed more free, showing a slightly larger range of facial shapes. Of course, now that she was alone with someone she actually knew a lot, she didn't have to put up her barriers against outsiders.

"Well, this is the town where Heroes go after getting baptized. I expected it to have more… Well, I thought it would be more similar to San Ilia." Granberia replied. "If I knew it was such a normal place, I would have directly attacked Iliasville instead."

"Too late." Alice commented as she looked around the streets. At the moment, she is hungry, and she doesn't feel like waiting for lunch. "Are you going to do it?"

"...No. I already got defeated once, even if it was a two-against-one fight. Attacking Iliasville would be petty for me now." Granberia shook her head in negation to Alice's question. "Of course, I would not hesitate to teleport there if it was by your order."

"No need. I decided to travel the world to observe humans, not to cause mayhem. It is still too soon to judge and see if they are worth my mother's sacrifice."

"I understand. In that case, I will not take any action… However, I have a question."

"Ask away." Alice told Granberia, who didn't miss a beat to ask her the question.

"What are you going to do with Victor in the future? It is clear by now that the more time passes, the stronger he becomes. With the rate at which he is growing, I'd say that it won't take too long for him to reach a level where he can threaten even us, unless there is an actual limit to his special power."

Alice sighed and shook her head. "There is no need to 'do something about Victor'. He is not a Hero who serves Ilias, so we don't need to worry in the short future that he will rampage on monsterkind."

"However, there is a possibility that Eva and Luka can change their minds." Granberia rebuked.

Alice nodded. "That might happen. However, while there is Eva and Luka influencing him to join Ilias, aren't we also within the group? Just like the two Heroes can pull on their faction, we can also pull him away from that side.

Besides, he has his brain in the right place, he won't fall for some simple scam. The most he can receive by being a Hero is a big discount from the shops in human settlements, and also remain untouched by monster girls who are looking to taste semen.

He has a power that can turn the first offer invalid for him, and he isn't affected by Critical Ecstasy, so there is no reason for him to join the church of Ilias. The bare minimum that he could get from there is a 'free spot in Heaven', but he isn't such a person to accept that cheap crap."

"You have a good point, my lord. If that's the case, do you wish to leave Victor as a wild card?" Granberia curiously asked, but Alice shook her head again.

"No, that would be no different from throwing a bomb in the streets and hoping that it won't kill anyone. While he won't be swayed by Ilias, he might be able to create a separate faction if he wishes so. Even if he acts lazily now, who knows if and when he will change. I'll talk about it with Tamamo first, she might recognize this special power of his."

Granberia nodded. "I see. Then I'll simply keep an eye out for him when we are together. By the way, I want to inform you that there is currently another Heavenly Knight in action in the Ilias Continent."

"Is that so?" Alice curiously asked with a raised eyebrow, and Granberia confirmed with a nod.

"Yes, it's Alma Elma."

"Oh Founder…" Alice pinched the spot between her eyebrows and shook her head. That woman was so mysterious that not even she can see past her actions. "...What is she doing?"

Granberia sighed in exasperation. "She is attacking every passing ship between Ilias Continent and Sentora. She had been going at it for a year, actually. However, because of the distance between the two continents and her speed, she would need to check around once every 6 hours for the maximum.

Needless to say, she only goes around there whenever she wishes to do so and still manages to stop all the ships from passing through. I figured that she didn't say anything, and you are here now, which is why I deemed it important enough to report it to you."

Alice merely stared at Granberia with a blank expression. "...She actually managed to do this for one whole year?"

"She can have some mood swings sometimes…"

"You mean that she is fucking weird? The only one who could possibly match her is Victor; weird-ass people..." Alice exasperatedly muttered under her voice. She ended the subject with a sigh and said. "Let's go to the shopping district, I'm getting hungry."

"Yes, my lord." Granberia respectfully replied and walked with Alice to the spot where Victor and Penny were some time ago.

…

"Alright… I have a new set of clothings, Angel Halo, and food rations to occupy three more meals… And a buckler." Luka was sitting on the central plaza at the moment, and was checking over his stuff to see if he missed anything. With the 500 Gold Coins he was handed by Victor, he can buy more useful stuff that he couldn't buy before.

However, he took notice of the wooden buckler that he didn't use for the entire time for some reason. Actually, it would be great to equip it now. There will be many occasions in the future where he cannot dodge an attack, and he will only have this small shield to protect him; he can't simply trust the Enrikan Shirt to take the hit, since it was the only thing separating the attack from his flesh and bones.

Besides, he can attach it to his left arm and still have both of his hands free, which will permit him to hold Angel Halo with both hands. Such a thing would be only a negligible weight on him and provide him with a lot of usefulness.

Unfortunately, he should replace it with a sturdier one. A wooden buckler won't assist him much against the monsters he will encounter in the future, he knows that. He could use the money to buy a steel buckler, though.

He will also have to buy the rest of the kitchenware to cook food much faster and better…

"Hmm!" Once he finished the mental shopping list, Luka nodded in determination and stood up from the fountain's edge at the center of the plaza, which was the place where he and many other people were sitting.

Luka pulled his traveling bag over his shoulders and walked away. However, before he could head to the shopping district, there was a mob nearby that caught his eyes. Luka approached the mob and easily pushed himself through the group, before he stepped in front of what seemed to be a board filled with many pinned sheets of paper.

There is a man sitting on a small counter at the side of the board, probably the one who was managing it.

The board was something that was present to Iliasville, too. Actually, this is the spot where Heroes always start.

No one was dumb enough to immediately go to the continent of Sentora; after getting baptized, the Heroes would come here and pick up one of the job requests. This board is owned by the Traveler Guild to give a possibility to the poor people to obtain money by doing good deeds, considering that people would travel around the world often, and the chances of being robbed by monsters or bandits are high in the wild.

After doing some monster-hunting jobs, the Heroes would then proceed to Sentora. Because of that, normally, there would be a lot of requests pinned on Iliasburg's board. However, for some reasons unknown to him, the connection between Ilias Continent and Sentora had been broken.

Well, there is no need to worry about that when he is still in Iliasburg.

Maybe he could do some short job here after buying everything he needs, to kill some time.

"Let's see… 'Help my son train on swordsmanship', 'We lack on military staff, please join us', 'My child disappeared, please find her', 'My neighbor can't stop yelling and it disturbs me, shut him up once and for all', 'Tracks of a serial kidnapper has been noticed by the Information Broker Guild, please assist us in finding the criminal and capture them'... 'The Harpies are kidnapping our men in Happiness Village, please help us before it is too late'?"

Luka raised an eyebrow as he noticed the paper sheet on the right edge of the board. Now that he thought about it, they left Happiness Village 3 hours ago, so the news might have not reached this place yet.

He approached the man responsible for the board and spoke. "Sir."

"Hmm?" The man looked away from his book and looked at Luka with a raised eyebrow.

"I wanted to give notice that the problem at Happiness Village has already been resolved, so there is no further necessity to hold that request on the board."

"Oh, the kidnappings at Happiness Village?" The man asked as Luka nodded in confirmation. "My friends and I had fixed the problem, although we came to know about it from the owner of the Sutherland Inn rather than coming here."

"I see. In that case, we'll send one of us over there to confirm your claim. If what you said is true, then you will receive your reward of 2'000 Gold Coins. We will notify you after two working days, can you please leave here the name and birthplace of your party group?"

The man pulled a sheet of paper from under his desk and a quill and ink. Luka picked the quill and ink and began to write: Luka, Iliasville; Eva, San Ilia…

Luka paused there for a moment and asked the man. "Actually, I don't know the birthplaces of some of my friends, what should I do about it?"

"You can just write their names if you want, but they won't be eligible to reclaim the reward due to the lack of proof that they and their names match."

Luka nodded as he continued to write, adding Alice, Penny, and Victor. However, for safety, he omitted Granberia. The city had been attacked by her two days ago, so it would sound really suspicious if someone with her same name appeared again.

Once Luka finished, the man retrieved the paper and read through it, before nodding. "Alright, I'll put this somewhere safe. Once again, please wait two days before coming here again to reclaim your reward, if you are indeed telling the truth."

"Oh, speaking of which…" A certain thought appeared in Luka's mind as he asked. "My friends and I aren't going to stay here for long, so I don't think that we can be here to reclaim the reward two days later…"

"There is no problem. The communication between the branches of the Traveling Guild are much faster than it might seem. As long as you give out your name, they can give you the reward that you deserve."

Once the man cleared Luka's doubts, the latter nodded in confirmation. "Alright then, I'll go to check again if I can pick a job."

"Please do so."

Luka sidestepped towards the board and gazed over it again. Since he was of a small stature, the people behind him didn't feel disturbed by his presence.

There were two jobs that caught his eyes. The first one is about the neighbor making noises that are annoying the employer who requested for help, while the other was on a corner of the board…

'Midas Village is currently suffering through its annual infestation of Slug Girls. This year is especially bad, we think that there must be a high-ranking Slug Girl guiding the group. Our local exterminator is too old to work, so we wish for some help from nearby Heroes.'

Midas Village is a place situated at the far north from Happiness Village, which meant it was at the extreme north-east from Iliasburg. Even still, it would take less than a day to reach there with Victor's car.

Also, Midas Village is famous for its usage of Gold to forge their equipment. Even though it is a soft metal, they seem to be using an alloy instead of the pure metal, which makes it hold a strong shape while retaining its golden luster. There are also rumors that Midas Village's weapons can wield the power of lightning, but they are simply unfounded rumors with no basis.

Still, if monsters are hurting the villagers in Midas Village, Luka can't just close an eye to it. Unfortunately, the direct way to Midas Village is closed by a mountain range in between, and the only way to reach it is to pass through Happiness Village. It felt a bit annoying going back and forth, but that is nothing compared to what the people in Midas Village are probably feeling!

Besides, he is already lucky to be able to sit in a car. Other heroes and travelers have to do it either through foot or a horse-pulled carriage, which was way slower than a car.

"I want to take these two jobs." Luka pointed out to the man, who pushed himself a bit over the edge to see what Luka wanted to do.

"Oh, the neighbor one and the Midas Village one? Sure, just put on your signature over here." The man extended a document towards Luka, who gladly signed up after reading its contents.

The man handed Luka a copy of both the jobs written on paper and told him. "As always, you can go to any branch of the Traveling Guild to reclaim your reward as long as you can let the manager of that place confirm your identity. Good luck on your jobs, boy."

"Thanks." Luka replied as he walked away.

Alright, first comes the buying, second comes the short job, and then it should be lunch time.

…

Eva is currently walking through a clothing store. Her golden spear was sheathed on a strap behind her back instead of staying on her hand like when she was outside the city. Like other girls within the store, she was scrolling past the hanging clothes in front of her.

She wasn't looking for simple underwear or something like that, but for an entire set of clothings that she would like to wear. Actually, the white military uniform-like set of clothes she is wearing wasn't anything special. Even the few golden armor plates around her were only for decoration. The only kind of metal that would be good enough for her was Meteorite Ore, but there wasn't anyone in this world capable of forging with such a tough material.

She could easily block physical attacks with her spear or enhance her already powerful body through magic, while magical attacks can be stopped with her own spells. It was better spending money on something of her tastes rather than useless stuff.

Eva was wearing a militaristic outfit, so which kind of style should she use now? A barbaric one? Nah, she didn't like showing off too much of her skin like Alice does.

Normal clothes would be too bland for her, so it will be a pass for those…

Gothic? Absolutely not. It would be nice to find something else that could give off an aura of 'pride', but also 'purity'. She liked that kind of combination, which is why she had picked these white and golden militaristic clothes to begin with; also wouldn't Victor be excited to 'taint' her 'pure' self when he will undress her tonight?

A chuckle escaped from her mouth at that thought. After a couple of seconds, she blinked a couple of times and shook off from her giggly self.

'Wow, I am really pent up…' That was her thought as she pushed out those dirty thoughts from her mind. It was rare for her to be this perverted, even in secret; in fact, she would rarely masturbate once in a week, at least. It could be that staying in close proximity to a man who had sex multiple times pushed a certain button of hers…

Well, it will be better when they will continue where they have left off after it turns late at night. It isn't right that only Alice gets to enjoy sex, after all… Yes, she had heard all of it two days ago in Sutherland Inn, and Victor wasn't the only one getting irked by that.

"...Hmm?" All of a sudden, something caught her eyes in between the layers of clothes. She pulled the dress upwards and found a leather jacket that definitely looked pretty nice. From there, Eva suddenly thought about a new set that she could try to wear.

Maybe she would directly change her style instead of sticking to the same one…

Eva took the jacket and once again scrolled through the different set of clothes in front of her, until she gathered all she needed and went to the changing room. Ten entire minutes passed within that small room before she stepped outside, revealing her new body accentualized by her new set of clothes.

She decided to take things a bit 'wildly' and wore a white leather top that was covering her breasts and showed off her bellybutton. In reality, that was a normal shirt; but with Eva's breasts, even a shirt would look like a top for her, and that was quite the detail that everyone nearby had noticed.

Over her shoulders and reaching her waist was the brown jacket she had found before, which was left unbuttoned to let air filter through her clothes.

As for her lower body, Eva dressed up in middle-length jeans that reached her calf and didn't go beyond that. And on her feet, she is wearing her usual leather brown shoes. The women who were looking at her held jealous eyes while the men switched their gazes between Eva's curvaceous body and the road in reaction to her showing off herself.

Eva walked over a mirror and looked at herself, before she nodded in approval. Now she simply has to fix her hair at a nearby barber and she will be fine.

The heroine walked to the counter and used her privilege as a Heroine to get the famed Hero Discount, obtaining everything for free. Of course, it was just a single set of clothes, so the shopkeeper didn't have any problem giving it out for free, especially in front of such a bombshell.

With a satisfied smile, Eva walked out of the store and looked for a barber shop. Maybe she can get a nice ponytail…?

…

Victor Luis' (future) Trivia Book: Leech Girl

The Leech Girl is yet another land-dwelling monster not belonging in any specific category in general. As the name dictates, she has the lower body of a giant leech while her human part lies over its head.

Even though she is part leech, she doesn't seem to feed on blood. However, if she finds any healthy man or woman, she will bind them with her lower mouth and let the tentacles, or 'tongues', surrounding the large gap that is her leech mouth, suck both sweat and urine--Semen too, if the prey is a man.

However, she is one of the more ruthless monsters, and as such, they don't seem to care whether the man inside her dies of dehydration or not. If she finds a high quality catch, through the same mouth, she sucks off their semen and discharges it to her genitals for reproductive purposes.

Even though they are land-dwellers, they don't carry any usable poison. In fact, they will never be able to make you sick through contact, no matter how dirty they might seem. And just like slugs, salt is quite dangerous for them if used in large quantities. However, when using salt, you have to be careful because they can vomit toxic stuff.

As a Leech Girl, she likes to live in dark shades under the sun and in the shadows, but most preferably in the water to refresh her body.

A small trivia for you people: If you have a monster girl fetish and are insecure about your fat body, you can court a Leech Girl. Because there is more to suck out of a fat person, the Leech Girls will certainly agree to your proposal, although you have to be lucky to not pick one that will kill you.
