Magical Explorer

What am I hesitating for when we have already come this far. Haven’t I already prepared myself for what’s going to happen next?

Yuika is holding a cloth in her hands. Those are the outfit that a magical girl would wear. Unfortunately, it is the type that came from the program that broadcast on Sunday morning…….not. They are the suggestive type that came from the late-night show instead.

“I can feel some strange power from it.”

“There’s no mistake that it was magically enchanted.”

“Even so……this design…..”

“Really, it looked super embarrassing. Even if it has good performance, I would hesitate to wear it.”

No no, there’re a lot of people who would happily wear it you know! Moreover, some characters would have their abilities greatly improved when they do a magical girl cosplay you know! Take the serious type character like vice president Fran for example. She would embarrassingly say that she doesn’t want to wear it but she actually wants to try wearing one. It looks great on her too.

No, that doesn’t matter now.

What should I do? Should I insert magic power into the magic circle to activate the projector? There’s one thing I want to make sure that it is the same as the game here.

I put magic power into the projector’s magic circle. Yuika looked at me with a surprise but as the image and ancient letters were projected, she decides to take a look at them first and ask me about it later.

“What is this?”

“…..I wonder? I can’t read the letters but I think I can understand something from the picture. Hmm, It seems to depict people that go on an adventure while wearing the clothes we found in the chest.”

I too can’t read what it says but after I saw the image projected I confirmed my theory. It is this after all. You have to wear these clothes to proceed further inside.

“Even so, what is this picture? It looks like she is protecting her chest with both her arm from water.”

“Her eyes are [X] marks so should we simply interpret that she stepped on a trap?…..Eh, What’s wrong Takioto-san. Aren’t you acting a little suspicious?”

“It’s, it’s nothing.”

“….don’t tell me, you can read ancient language? Takioto-san.”

I haven’t done anything right? She’s too sharp.

But what do I do? I can’t just say it like it’s nothing. Even if I do tell her everything, she will surely protest.

“On, Only just a little.”

“Really!? Then what is that?”

Saying so she points at the projected image of the girl. Next to it is a picture of a wiggly path.

“First, it says that this is not the end of the dungeon. It seems that it will continue for a little more……”

“So this wiggly shape is a passage right?”

“Yeah about that. It is about what it says. Umm, it seems women will not be able to continue any further unless they wear these clothes…….!”

Hearing me, Yuika’s expression changes. From a concentrated gaze to an angry one.

“Haaa?”

“Yu, Yuika, you are making a face that you shouldn’t normally let others see you know.”

“But isn’t it well deserved. Takioto-san, can you think about what you just said again. Why do I have to wear this?”

“Wa, wait, calm down. Look, see, isn’t it nice and breezy clothes.”

“Haa? Did you smack your head or something?! Then, Takioto-san tries wearing pants full of holes that barely cover anything and shout [Yeah, it’s nice and breezy] for me please.”

“ISN’T THAT JUST A PERVERT!”

“That’s what you just said Takioto-san!”

“B, but I just said what was written there you know…..and if you don’t wear it we can’t continue on either….an, and look at that.”

Saying so, I point at the round and square objects drawn on the wall.

“If you perform well you can get a commemorative medal and even a certificate you know.”

“Is this some kind of competition! Are you stupid! There’s no way such a thing exists! In the first place, what is a good performance anyway!?”

I think so too, we seriously don’t need it. But you see, the certificate is an important item in the game, there’s no way I would throw it away right? I can’t leave it alone right!

“Right, there seem to be a lot of traps ahead you see. Isn’t it the certificate for those who can efficiently avoid them…..?”

“I, I get it. So the picture where the girl protects her chest with both arms is really about the trap isn’t it.”

It is but it isn’t. It isn’t just that AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

If this is just a simple Galge then that might be the end of it but this is an eroge Magiex you know? There’s no way that it would be over with just that! !

“………Takioto-san. What are you looking so worried about.”

“Eh, no, this is.”

“………Follow me for a bit Takioto-san. Gabby, please wait here for a moment!”

Yuika firmly grabbed my arm and pull me through the magic circle to the previous room despite the grunting Gabby.

“Now, Takioto-san. Please spill it.”

Getting Kabedoned by a cute girl is a little scary. But I am happy about this after all.

“I, I wonder what you are talking about?”

“You actually know something right? I won’t get angry so please tell me about it.”

Why do you know that! I never said anything right!?

As I was wondering what to do, Yuika sighed with a slightly lonely expression.

“Hey….Takioto-san. Takioto-san might now know this but I am actually grateful to you, you know.”

“That is—-”

“Sorry, please listen to me quietly a little longer. I am grateful and have my trust in you as well. Ludi-san, Yuikne-san, and Nanami-san seem to trust you from the bottom of their hearts too. Most importantly, you have been properly listening to me until now.”

Saying so, Yuika brushed away her brown hair over her ear and smiled innocently.

“This time…..I will tell you about everything that I have been worrying about. That’s right, since I will tell you all of that how about I include my three sizes in there as well! That’s why, please tell me about what’s on your mind too.”

?

“Th, Three sizes!?”

Wait, you, what are you saying! Did you drink some weird medicine! ?

“I have that much resolve you see, it just what came to my mind when I think about it! Eh? Perhaps, Takioto-san really interested in my three sizes!? This Erosuke♪”

Don’t poke my chest with your finger!

And sorry about this but I already know your three sizes!!!

Rather, why did you know that I want the Ero detail!? I never said anything like that right?

Aah Mou, if it comes to this then wouldn’t it be better if I just tell her? But it’s that you know? But if I don’t tell her…………AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

No, let’s take a deep breath.

Should I tell her or not? I can pretend not to know anything too. No matter what happens, it wouldn’t be life-threatening after all. And if it comes to that I can just warn them to mind their step in the dungeon too.

But if she was able to read me to this extent, I can’t just say nothing to her.

If something happens, it is certain that Yuika will look at me with cold eyes. Well, if I spill everything now she would still be looking at me with cold eyes too though.

But for her to demand me to tell her to this extent, it’s impossible for me to keep hiding it from her like this.

“Un, Understood. But I want you to listen to me without getting angry okay.”

“I won’t…..! In the first place, it is not Takioto-san’s fault isn’t it.”

Right, that’s what I think too.

“Al, Alright. Okay…….actually you see, the thing that was written in the ancient language was not just about the clothes.”

“Well, I can guess that much.”

Right.

“So, in that picture, there’s one with the water right? Actually, there’s a trap that spring out water if you step on it but….what show there was the outcome of the trap you see.”

“Heee, so that’s what it is about.”

It shouldn’t inflict that much damage, right? There’s a cushion to soften the damage after all. But Water, water, if we talk about the water then……

Crap, I can’t think of anything! Let’s tell her something that fit the description then!

“Y, You know. Water is transparent right?”

“….what are you saying all of a sudden? Of course, it is right?”

“So you see, you know how clothes are right? That’s why when it gets soaked with water it will become transparent too right?”

“You are not making any sense though? There’s no way that’s the case, isn’t it? Clothes that turn transparent is…………Nn? Soaking in water, soaking…………!”

“Ac, Actually those clothes. If you sprinkle it with water it will turn transparent!”

“……..HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?”

“It will turn transparent if you sprinkle it with water Ma’am!!!!!”

Stupid~~~The development team was an idiot! Of course, we all roll and rush into the water to get the CGs but AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! !

“Isn’t that just stupid!? Why did they put those into the treasure chest then? Why can’t we proceed without wearing them!?”

Just think about it, Of course, it is there for the H Scene! Naturally, you would have to wear it right!?

“Yui, Yuika?”

Yuika lowers her head while her clenched fists are trembling. I can’t clearly see her expression but her face is bright red up to her ears.

“I, I understand. If we step on the trap we will be showered with water and our chest will be exposed right……….! That’s why she was covering her chest and her eyes turned into X mark isn’t it…..!”

“S, Sorry. But I just want to say this, It’s not my fault okay!”

“OF COURSE, I KNOW THAT!?”

The bad one is the developer! It is absolutely not my fault. Certainly, the gentlemen said that they want some erotic events after the boss battle, the developers understand that and answer their expectations but we eroge users never voice that out loud. Regardless, the developer team still put the H scene here.

That’s why everything is the developers’ fault ! ! But I can’t say that can’t I!

Crap, I can’t be escaping from reality now! I have to say something to make her see the bright side of wearing a transparent swimsuit here……!

Th, that’s right! There’s that isn’t it!

“Wa, wait a minute. There’s good news too you know. On top of getting a medal if you don’t get wet, you can get a certificate too you know!?”

“Yeah, I got a certificate! You thought I would say that!? It’s like I got something useless like a centipede leg!? So the good performance from earlier is about not getting wet!?”

Isn’t it too much to compare it to a centipede’s leg! It’s still a certificate you know!? But if you compare a [certificate] to the [H CG] then the certificate is really worth about the same as a centipede’s leg! ! No, it’s even lower than that!?

“Uuuuuuuu! I understand, FINE, I GET IT! !”

“Y, You get it?”

“I’ve decided, I will wear it.”

“Ha?”

“I will wear it! I WILL WEAR IT ALRIGHT! I just have to avoid every trap without getting wet is it.”

She says that and grabs my chest. Her face is bright red, her lips are shivering but she looked at me with determination.

Since the trap has more impact it seems like she forgot about how sensual those magical girl outfits are. Well, I will leave that alone since I don’t want to poke the sleeping dragon.

“Let’s not tell this to Gabby. We don’t know what will happen after all.”

Whether we tell her or not, those things still likely to happen though.

“Then I will be changing over there, please wait here until we call you over okay.”

Saying so she released her hand and turn around.

Seeing her like that I hurriedly call out to her.

“Wait, Wait. is it really alright!? If something happens…..”

It will be totally see-through you know!?

“Either way, if we don’t wear it, we can’t advance, right? Moreover.”

Turning back, she slowly walked over and placed her forehead on my chest.

“If I step on a trap……….. Takioto-san will be there to protect me right?”

“…..Of, Of course, I am!?”

“Right! Then, I’m going to get change alright!”

She walked toward the magic circle and turn her head toward me.

“Takioto-san.”

With her back facing me, she calls out.

“What is it?”

“You know. I think I have to say this just in case.”

“Say what?”

“I would absolutely hate it if other men see me like that but if it’s Takioto-san………..I think it’s okay to let you see a little bit.”

Saying so, she entered the magic circle.
