Chapter 267: The Poisonous Bug and the Snake
<<Previous Chapter | Live Dungeon! | Next Chapter>>
Today was the team’s first day off since the alliance with Silver Beast had been forged. In the Clan House’s living room, a newly installed sofa — massive, luxurious, and crafted from the hides and scales of various monsters — dominated Diniel’s attention. She sank into its plush, melting into it as though she were a soft rice cake easing into warmth.
“Looks like someone’s a fan,” Tsutomu observed, seated at a respectful distance from Diniel.
“I want one in my room,” Diniel murmured without opening her eyes.
“Good luck with that. The crafter’s totally booked.”
The sofa, an opulent piece made to order, was as rare as it was indulgent. Thanks to Ollie’s deep connections in the Royal Capital, they had managed to acquire one, but it was not a luxury that could be casually secured. Its maker’s list was full for the foreseeable future, a year at least.
Hearing the soft sound of footsteps descending the stairs, Tsutomu rose to his feet.
Korinna’s team had already left the Clan House, setting off for God’s Dungeon. Amy and Amira, meanwhile, had been obsessed with mastering the latter’s new skill, <<Dragon Union>>, to the point that it was not unusual to see them wandering about with wings sprouting from their backs. The two had even made headlines in the local papers, with Amy’s fans praising Amira for unlocking new heights of power and fashion for the former.
Garm was still hard at work, refining his physical techniques to push his limits, while Xeno, with the help of his Dungeon Maniac wife, Pico, had been trying out a more supportive, Buffer-style approach to combat. Both men now spent most of their time in the depths of the Dungeon, chasing their individual goals.
