Lonely Attack on the Different World (WN)

Day 80 – Nighttime, White Weirdo Inn, Training Grounds

Shroud myself. I can use『Wrap』as naturally as breathing. That’s the point I’ve reached. But that itself was a problem. I kept using this skill ever since it still was『Mana Wrap』, before understanding its mechanism, before I was even able to clarify uncertainties, I simply kept using it to survive. Unless I fully grasp, deconstruct, comprehend, reassemble, and learn to subconsciously control it, I won’t be able to realize its true value or evolve it further. There is something beyond, I’m barely handling it at the moment after all.

A moment later a layer of heavy air stick to the body. As if the air around suddenly became a liquid, turning heavy and sticky, coiling around me. I push through the heavy world, dragging myself through as it sticks to me, almost as if swimming, gasping for air with each breath.

ViT represents physical strength, endurance, and toughness. Since it went up, my body can withstand more punishment, but it still hurts. Any damage I take can be healed with『Regeneration』but it still hurts. Damage from physical attacks is also reduced, but pain is still pain. In the end, I even managed to pull off『Kyojitsu』,but a few muscles tore and a few bones cracked here and there, though they healed quickly, it still hurt! It hurt, but it was usable. But successive usage is not sustainable.

「Looks like this is the limit of what can be achieved with equipment improval~? As I thought, mastery and control effects seem to be rare. That’s what I really wanted though. Raising ViT only slows self-destruction, and it still hurts. I regenerate immediately, but since I keep self-destructing it just keeps hurting? It’s painful, you know?」

(Jiggle-Jiggle)

Oooh, that’s deep. I see, even light feathers can sink a ship if piled up like a mountain. So that means I’ll sink? No way!

(Bounce-Bounce!)

I got it wrong, it seems? I see, so it’s a matter of a light load breaking the axle, huh? No matter how light is the load, if you pile enough of it, the axle will break? So, does that mean I’ll break too? That’s no good!

Ah~. I see, You’re saying that I should break a leg, going all out? But, like, I’m actually bleeding here? My bones are literally shattering, and my muscles are tearing apart, so this idiom isn’t quite an idiom here?

「「「Why are you making a comedy with Slime-san? A-and you even made matching bow ties just for this!」」」

「The bow tie is the one I wore to the ball, you know? Yup, I also made one for Slime-san, but being busy as orphans’ bodyguard Slime-san couldn’t unveil it back then? There was also a cute spherical dress, but it didn’t have its moment to shine and seemed to get in the way of transformations, so I had to stash it away. Such a waste, right?」

Looks like they are done bathing.

And now I’m surrounded by orphans and 23 beauties who just left the bath? Steam is still rising from their bodies, and the skin has a faint cherry blossom hue, slightly flushed. The exposed skin area is overwhelmingly large, with short pants, mini dresses, doing nothing to cover those long nice legs. The upper body is exposed in vulnerable deep V-neck T-shirts, tank tops, or sleeveless, with the shoulders, neckline, and collarbones completely revealed, approaching… or rather, you’re close?

「「「「Whoooooa. Onii-chan, are we going to play?」」」」

Dodging the barrage or orphan torpedoes who keep jumping at me as usual I look out for the escape route, but the formation has no openings. Behind the wall of orphans’ barrage they are awaiting me in a perfect battle order.

「Onii-chan, a request……」「Bro! Expecting a novelty.」「Onii-chan, chestnut buns.」「Onii-chan, I want some fresh cream cake.」「Onii-sama, I’d like a yukata.」「「「Onii-chan, additional requests……」」」

MMMmmnm. Crap, it’s a trap!

In the past, this scenario would be followed by only one development, so this is a sure pattern! Looks like the bras were a perfect fit, the chests are completely packed! No, wait, that’s not the point. This situation is definitely a demand, a request, a petition… or just plain begging. And if I don’t say yes, only one thing awaits: the highschool girl body pile, also known as the 『Mugyu-Mugyu Squishy Hell』 until I give in. But honestly, with all the soft, plump, and squishy pressure closing in, it’s less of a hell and more of a heaven.

While my Physical Resistance and recovery were boosted by increase in ViT, one shouldn’t be deceived by this tender sensation! This plump, squishy flesh belongs to the ones who transcended over level 100. Being surrounded by this fortress of living flesh, and tossed about in this maelstrom of bare skin, I’m completely at their mercy, with no hope of escape even with computing ability from 『Wisdom』.

Parting with『Staff of the World Tree』,『Cloak』and even『Gloves』after the training proved fatal. I’m being swallowed up by a torrent of highschool girl bodies, with every fleeting opportunity for escape being instantly sealed off by Dancing Girl-san and Armored Pres-san. There isn’t a single opening. The very moment I try to focus my mind on slipping away with 『Teleport』I get hit with SQUISH, as if they were expecting that, making me lose concentration.

「Front left!」

They were totally aiming for this. Elven Little Sister is reading what I’m focusing on, sending signals to the pres, who then gives appropriate instructions to maintain the encirclement, keeping me pressed, squeezed, and entangled by female bodies, wrapped up in their limbs and trapped by their bodies. And since any momentary gap is shut down by the Dungeon Emperors duo, I can’t find an escape route. Of course, were I to use 『Magic Hands』with『Lewd Techniques』,『Vibration Magic』and『Sex King』, even this skin-colored sea of flesh would forced to part as shivering and twitching mess. But I sense that this would spell trouble both Highschool boy-wise and Affection Rating-wise. Forcing them to go back to the bath after they just left it seems kind of mean. Yeah, taking that at full force leads to all kinds of things so they will need to wash themselves again, you know? At this point I’ve gotten pretty good at drying futons, yeah, it’s pretty rough.

「Wait, hold on! I’ll listen to your demands, but demands come first, bodypile comes second! Why are you crushing me to weaken me before making your requests?! That’s no longer a request, that’s something else entirely! For a high school guy, this is a dangerous negotiation, if my self-control slips before I even hear the request, we’re looking at a full-blown catastrophe! I’m already at full alert dealing with all this squishiness! Submit your request forms first, then resort to force if negotiations call for it! Why does it always start with a full-contact assault?!」

I don’t think I can last any longer! But the equipment was effective enough, my HP barely went down, while MP absorption was more than enough, it didn’t go down at all. Even so, in a high school boy’s sense, this is a completely irresistible attack, it would require specialized gear like 『Plump Resilience』 or 『Squish Nullification』 to counter! But even if such a thing existed, it probably wouldn’t work, no high school boy could withstand this. Anyone capable of calmly withstanding that is either into BL or LO.

Even so, I managed to neutralize physical attacks, so there are no issues equipment-wise. Mentally I’m a highschool boy so it can’t be helped. No, absolutely nothing could be done here!

「「「「Onii-chan, please take care of this!」」」」

Looks like they made a killing from dungeons. With energy returning to order forms night work also respawned, wait… Huh?

「One, two, three…… Twenty one. In other words every single one ordered a bunny girl outfit! Are they going to wear that?! Where?! When?! At last, a store with highschool bunny girls is going to open in this world? Or a casino opened somewhere? The price tag is quite steep, I might make quite a lot from this?」

It’s not that I dislike this, far from that, in fact, I love bunnies so much that I’m even planning, plotting, and scheming to boost my Affection Rating by assuming the role of a kind-hearted, bunny-loving high school boy. I mean, being sandwiched between Armored Pres-san in black bunny outfit and Dancing Girl-san’s white bunny during a blissful carriage ride was pure heaven, so yeah, I love bunnies! However! An inn with highschool bunny girls sounds way too risky to operate, so risky it might be impossible to even get a permit for such enterprise, is what I think, but at the same time, it’s Meripapa-san who’d be issuing such permits, so taking care of that would be a piece of cake, but there is also the question of public perception, ethics, moral, but more importantly, it’s very risky in a highschool boy sort of way.

That fishnet stocking bunny-san has too much destructive power. With 23 of them around highschool boys will be unable to stand up due to certain physical issues! Does this also count as a physical attack? No, maybe it has a high school boy-exclusive action restrictive effects, but is that really something they should be wearing as standard equipment?

(Alright, he took the order forms!) (Perfect.) (According to Angelica-san and the others, he’s weak to bunny girls after all…) (Yeah, he was totally into Oda-kun’s story about rabbit-eared beastkin girls.) (Does this mean he likes bunnies?) (((…In a way, probably?)))

「That leaves the yukata proposal, huh… A yukata itself isn’t issue, but since it also involves designs, the work on multicoloring it haven’t progressed much? We’re still waiting on the final yukata design from the bitches here. And this one, they’re requesting new mule designs, but don’t they already have like 20 pairs each? Are they centipedes or something? How many legs do they have? If any more bare legs show up, it’ll push a highschool boy past his limit! And also, this, as expected, well, I was planning to make headbands eventually, but brought it up first.」

Which leaves the usual swimsuits, new underwear, pajamas for room wear, slippers, and… D-D-D-Don’t request girls daily necessities to a highschool boy!!! But this order form is jointly signed, so I guess it’s for real? Well, basically, I just need to create something that can absorb it, but… The level of details and warning points on this blueprint is kind of disturbing, but the main point… No leaks, no irritation, no itching allowed?! S-So this has been the real objective all along?!

I was given an unused sample, and I can’t help but be deeply concerned about the Affection Rating of a highschool boy who receives unused sanitary pads from highschool girls… Just where did you go, my Affection Rating?

Looks like they had trouble bringing that up, but the demand was there for quite a while. But even if they had trouble bringing that up, imagine how I feel! And that’s why they tried to mix it in with other request forms and forced them on me with schoolgirl bodypile. In other words, they very earnest about this. Be it bras or pads, being a girl sure is tough. But making a highschool boy solve that is tough on him, you know?

But once again it’s pretty complex and high tech. First bras, now pads, isn’t the girls’ stuff the only thing advancing by leaps and bounds? Should this be considered a form of discrimination against men that such advanced technology is exclusively developed for women? The multi-layered surface material prioritizes a soft feel against the skin, while the main absorbent core is designed with leak-proof material, ensuring a one-way absorption system to prevent seepage. On top of that, it even includes anti-slip features to keep everything securely in place… It’s pretty sophisticated, but why is a highschool boy the one who has to explore the depths of that sophistication time after time? I’m getting slightly depressed by how knowledgeable I’m becoming on this, but it is something necessary. The stock is getting low apparently.

「Ah, so it was this structure that they kept calling wings and what not… Which reminds me, every time a commercial for it came on, I got this indescribable awkward feeling, I really wish they’d be a little more considerate of high school boys. I see, this part is designed to fit snugly to prevent any leaks through the gaps… So it has to fit like this… The shape is… (Distant gaze, lost in thought)」

The only options would be either to develop a special fiber or somehow deal with it with magic. Putting aside why a highschool boy has to tackle this issue, unless I resolve this somehow, nothing can be done. While considering the temporary use of cloth napkins as a stopgap, factoring in dungeons and battles, it seems that disposable fiber-based ones are necessary. And not thinking about why a highschool boy is supposed to think about this!

In a fantasy world without chemical materials, I’d likely need to rely on magic. If I imbue a thread with something like 『Absorption』 or 『Desiccation』 before weaving it into fabric, then cloth napkins would be the way to go. If they are to be reusable reusable, making them in Multicolor and adding a 『Dirt Repellent』 effect should help them last longer. The real question is whether this is something a high school boy should even be worrying about, but with such a complex system, it’s no surprise that finding a solution is difficult.

『Wisdom』already finished analysis and started calculations on blueprints. I’m sure even『Wisdom』-san is startled. I mean, even I’m surprised, here I was wondering what the hell am I doing making bras in a fantasy world, and now it’s sanitary pads… Just what the heck this isekai stuff was about?

「As I thought, that gel is oil based… Moreover, this has the same structure as a cooling gel pad!」

No worries about being the only one treated like a pervert then. Because apparently, everyone was sticking them on their foreheads, yup, everyone is a pervert!

Nowhere in all my past reading did I ever come across the structure of a napkin, and if I had, that would have raised some serious questions about what I was reading! When it came to isekai stories, production-type jobs were pretty popular, so I read a lot of them… but did anyone ever make bras or napkins? I don’t remember a single instance! Most of those stories had heroines, but now that I think about it… none of them ever made a bra, let alone anything else! How come?

However, paper is still prone to trapping moisture. If the fibers swell from humidity, it gets stuffy, and if they absorb moisture without releasing it, ventilation holes can’t be added. That leaves fabric as the only option, but to prevent leaks, the shape becomes crucial. If it doesn’t fit perfectly, movement could cause leaks. A perfect shape… the shape… wait… (Out-of-order, please wait for a while)

「Ah, this is it, the one I researched for sports bras, 『Mana Molding』! With this… I won’t have to do the fitting myself! Because no matter how you look at it, a high school boy manually fitting a cloth napkin to perfectly match a high school girl’s shape is just… no good! That high school boy is done for in so many ways!」

It’s likely that magical materials would be more advantageous than chemical ones, but in terms of cost, disposables would end up quite expensive. As for fiber-based options, unless some kind of special fantasy material from this world is found, they’d probably only work as a backup. And I sort of hate the idea of adventuring in a fantasy world in search of sanitary pad materials?

「If it’s hooked onto the shorts with a clasp, it won’t shift… So, by using 『Mana Molding』 for the gather parts and designing the wing-shaped sections separately, then alternating 『Absorption』 and 『Desiccation』 layers for each piece of fabric… And finally, adding a one-way 『Waterproof』 effect to prevent leaks~? Ahh~, I’ve somehow ended up making a really well-crafted one, but instead of feeling accomplished, I just feel strangely melancholic. This really isn’t something a high school boy is supposed to fully understand and master, is it? Seriously!」

And the greatest issue remains… Gotta have them test this first, and then gradually improve based on the results, but those results… 『Used ones…』… (Deliberating?)

Cloth napkins also need to be washed, but with 『Dirt Repellent』 effects and magic-infused fibers, their durability should be outstanding. However… 『I’m the only one who can wash them with magic~』 (Grieving?)

That night, there was a lone highschool boy, gazing in sorrowful contemplation at the napkin in his hand, illuminated by a distant sun shining in the night sky. (According to him.) Kind of?
