Leveling Up with My Adorable Monster Girl Harem!

Chapter 7: The Quest Feature

"I've seen my memory crystal in my shop, Master."

In the Freya World, people could forcefully take out someone's memory, alter it, and do whatever they want with it, even animating objects through other people's experiences.

That concept came in many skills.

Louise's memories had been turned into a crystal, shattered because of some terrifying experience, and scattered around the world. She just confirmed to Leon that her memories, most of them from her late years, were incomplete. Though Leon could see through her secrets in another way, which he'd never use unless necessary, the way she revealed them on her own surely pleased him.

He encouraged his companion. "Someone must have sold this item to The System Shop, and it waited for you. It means that majority of the world can not see through your memories and their origins. Your memories are safe, aren't they? We'll find them."

"Mmm!" Louise made a pretty cute sound of agreement, her heart warming from Leon's words and show of support.

After enjoying a good mood, which naturally unfurled between them, Leon and Louise talked about their plan to get money for clothes. The fox girl explained the currency to her master(100 copper coins = 1 silver, 1000 silver = 1 gold) and then about the quest feature.

This feature was like being hired by The System.

Residents could get a quest for pretty much anything, and the system would reward them with an income, experience points, and even skills or items!

"The quests come in two forms: a quest from the system and from residents," Leon repeated what he'd seen in the system message about this feature.

Louise nodded and added, "The System starts quests at an appropriate time and when there's room and chance to grow. If we find an enemy, we should receive a quest."

Having his companion talking more and more, Leon purposely slowed down his speech and left room for Louise to share her knowledge of the system. He enjoyed the process and her reactions when he thanked her for her help.

Feeling like it was a good time, Leon asked about Louise's battle style, "How do you fight?" And as she grew a little tense and nervous, Leon added, "I don't have any battle experience, but I managed to go through the tests and even smash one betrayer's solar plexus. He flew off the ground and landed before the humanoid rabbit. I'd say I have some talent."

It didn't happen exactly the way Leon described, for his punch wasn't so powerful, but the result was pretty much the same, so Leon coated his words to impress his new friend.

Louise was taken aback, then giggled faintly, "I know how to fight. I can show you, Master."

"Sure," Leon nodded and crossed his arms, waiting for her to showcase her abilities. He was also interested in how she'd move, for though she was short, Louise was a voluptuous woman. Her chest stood out even more because of her height, which Leon never commented on aloud.

Was it a D or E cup size, though? Maybe he'd learn about it soon while picking up clothes from the shop.

Unaware of her master's thoughts, Louise distanced from him, sucked a mouthful of breath, and her adorable face turned sharp. Her tails followed her confidence, standing erect. Because of it, the tail she used to cover her exposed and intimate part also went up, making Louise twitch from a breeze between her thighs.

She awkwardly glanced at Leon, only to quickly look away.

Louise managed to get a hold of her emotions, ushering confidence to her heart again, and her face and fox features turned sharp again. She channeled her mana, her fire tails flashing in a bright scarlet color, then jumped!

Spinning a few times mid-air, Louise let out a rapid and strong fire kick with every spin. Streaks of flames howled and danced around her slender legs but just for a second, for Louise was a fast fighter.

She dropped onto her feet, her fox tails falling after her, scratching the grass before standing erect, and turned her cute face to Leon, who stood with widened eyes.

Within his hues, Louise saw a deep concentration and comprehension! It confused her as Leon couldn't possibly be able to repeat what she'd done, could he?

Leon soon woke up from his stupor. In his eyes, he'd seen Louise in slow motion and studied her every move as deeply as he could. He saw how her muscles tensed, how she exactly moved her body, and how every kick landed on the same goal.

He would've seen through her mana pattern if he were more knowledgeable.

It was all because of his body, so Leon could only work hard to fill the gaps.

"That was awesome," Leon genuinely expressed his admiration for Louise's moves without a hint of his former thoughts of her curves, then asked, "Could you look after me? I want to try it, too."

Although he lacked fox tails, ears, and even a fire concept, Louise felt obliged to nod and agree to her master's request. It wasn't because of Leon's command or any other skill — Louise saw an unquestionable belief in Leon, which made her believe he'd be able to even cast flames of her scarlet fox race!

He repeated her moves perfectly, landing without even bending his legs as though he had been flying, then wheeled to Louise and smiled. "Seems like I did it pretty well! I have never felt so much strength in my body! It's a matter of technique, isn't it?"

Leon punched the air a few times, seemingly wanting to exhaust himself to feel even more rewarded, but soon clicked his tongue as it wasn't comparable to what he'd done by following Louise's movement.

His friend stood agape, gawking at him with dilated eyes, her three fox tails betraying her feelings as those rapidly waggled behind her. What Leon did was similar to the person who had taught her how to fight! The way he descended was just a cherry on top.

Louise grew too excited!

"I'll try again," Leon basked in her admiration and nodded coolly, only to fail the second time. His legs tangled mid-air, and he dropped onto the ground like a heavy bag.

Leon stared at the cloudless sky and whispered to himself, "Is this what he meant?"

Pleasant system messages dispelled all thoughts of the black spirit and his words about Leon's flaws.

[Because of your interactions with Louise, she's stepped on Kindling Path.]

[You can learn more about it in her monster card.]

[Both of you have improved significantly through your interaction.]

[Your soul connection equally grows stronger.]

[You've received 10 stats points to allocate.]

"Master! You did so well on your first try! You should train more!" Louise's adorable baby face cleansed all the system messages.

She was so aroused and happy that Leon wanted to start training with her immediately. Moreover, he'd been lacking such a smile for what seemed like eons for him, so he couldn't help but just lift himself up and listen to her while gazing at her expression.

Wasn't it a good time to finally get a skill from her?
