Chapter 270. Corrosive Liquid that melts Clothes?
Both Kylas wore the dresses Tyler had provided after their unexpected ordeal. The mood was tense, and Rabbit Kyla looked on the verge of tears.
"I lost everything in my storage device," Rabbit Kyla said, her voice shaky.
"Calm down," Tyler said, trying to diffuse the situation. "The mission’s difficulty has clearly exceeded what was posted. We’ll report this and demand enough compensation to make up for it."
Human Kyla sighed, sitting down on a nearby rock. "It wasn’t just our storage devices. After being dragged underground by those flowers, we fell into a puddle of some strange green liquid. It had corrosive properties. Everything we carried—our clothes, weapons, and even the storage devices—was completely dissolved."
Tyler nodded thoughtfully. He had more than enough supplies in his own storage device, including spare clothing. He always made it a point to be over-prepared for any situation. However, giving women dresses, especially in this awkward situation, felt like walking a tightrope. The last thing he wanted was to be labeled a pervert.
After some deliberation, Tyler handed them oversized T-shirt-like dresses.
Rabbit Kyla, being petite and short, found the T-shirt practically drowning her. It was so loose and long that it covered her entire body down to her knees. The sleeves were much longer than her arms, and the way they hung over her small hands gave her an almost childlike appearance. Despite the ill fit, she managed to wear it, and the sight of a rabbit girl in an oversized, baggy T-shirt made her look undeniably cute.
Human Kyla, on the other hand, had a very different issue. While she was also relatively short, her figure was far from petite. Particularly around the chest area, the T-shirt stretched tightly, making it ride higher than intended. The hem barely reached halfway down her thighs, leaving much of her legs exposed in a way that could only be described as seductive.
Tyler glanced at them both, trying his best to keep his expression neutral. "This should do for now. We’ll get proper replacements when we get back to camp."
Rabbit Kyla, noticing Human Kyla’s predicament, tilted her head innocently. "Your shirt’s too small. Why didn’t you take the bigger one?"
Human Kyla crossed her arms defensively, her cheeks flushing. "It’s not like I had much of a choice! Besides, you’re so small that anything would look big on you."
