Shota’s Isekai NTR Adventure

Inside of the cave.

After the Chimera Ants chased the Vikal Kingdom soldiers away, I led my group over to the closest hole in the ground in front of us.

They all had worried looks as we stood there in front of the whole, as if they were afraid that we would be ambushed by more Chimera Ants.

But I just calmly poked my head out and looked down into the hole.

As I looked down, I saw that it wasn’t that deep like I had expected and that it would be easy to jump down.

So without any hesitation, I went forward to jump into the hole.

Or at least that was what I had been planning on doing, but there were two people that stepped forward that suddenly grabbed me.

It was Shaka and Cecilia.

Naturally they had also come with me on this mission, but they had been silently watching since they trusted me.

Still that was a completely different matter from me jumping down the hole.

The two of them held my arms and just lifted me off the ground, not letting me go any further forward.

While holding me like this, Cecilia asked, “What are you doing?”

Though Shaka didn’t say anything, it was clear by the way that he looked at me that he was thinking of asking the same thing.

I just looked at them and said with a calm look, “I’m going down to find the queen of the Chimera Ants.”

It wasn’t just the two of them, almost all of my subordinates suddenly looked at me like I was a crazy person. Follow current novᴇls on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Though if I was in their shoes and someone said the same thing to me, I would have thought the same. They had just witnessed the scene of the Chimera Ants slaughtering the entire Vikal Kingdom army troop, so it wouldn’t be strange if they were terrified of these Chimera Ants.

I just shook my head with a faint smile before saying, “We can’t leave anyway and if we just leave them here, the Chimera Ants will eventually hurt the innocent. We should at least take care of this before leaving, right?”

Though I said this, my real goal was to get the treasure that came from clearing this dungeon.

The Vikal Kingdom army had already cleared out most of this place, so of course I would reap the benefits that they left behind.

They all looked at me with strange looks, but it didn’t seem like they disagreed with what I said.

It was only Cecilia and Shaka who looked at me with gazes like they were questioning me before Cecilia asked, “Is it dangerous?”

I thought about it before saying, “It’s a little dangerous, but as long as I’m here, it should be fine.”

There was a moment of silence before they slowly let me down.

I let out a sigh of relief seeing this before turning back to the hole to gauge the jump down. However, what I didn’t expect was that Cecilia and Shaka jumped down before I could even do anything.

Both of them didn’t seem to have any fear as they jumped right down, which made me reveal an awkward look.

I never thought that the two of them would trust me this much.

They didn’t fall that far down and landed without any problems. They were still close enough that I was able to see them without any problems.

However, the two of them didn’t continue further down the tunnel that they had landed in as they turned around to look up at me. Then the two of them raised their arms as if they were waiting to catch something.

It took me a few seconds to understand what was happening.

They had turned around to wait for me to jump down so they could catch me.

I couldn’t help revealing an even more awkward look, but I still jumped down on the end into their waiting arms.

After landing, I ignored the rest of them as they struggled on whether to come down or not and started looking on the ground. I was looking for the tracks that had been left behind by the Chimera Ants.

These were their tunnels, so of course there would be tracks left behind.

As for the other subordinates, they eventually jumped down after a large amount of internal struggle. Though they didn’t get the same treatment as me, so many of them misjudged their jump because of how dark it was and they landed on their butts or faces.

After a while, I suddenly stood up and turned in a direction before saying, “This way.”

It was to go in the reverse direction since that would be where their nest was.

The others looked at me with a strange look, but they still followed me. This time, they followed with much less resistance than before.

After all, we were already down here, so there was nowhere else for them to go. Their only choice was to follow me since I was the only one that seemed to know what I was doing.

We eventually came to a crossroad where there were several different paths for us to take.

However, I just looked carefully on the ground for tracks before choosing one of the paths.

This was the path that had the most ant tracks, so this was the one that they all took to reach their nest.

After passing several crossroads, I finally raised my hand for the rest of our group to stop.

All of them had serious looks on their faces since they could hear the same thing as me.

There were the sounds of ant feet skittering that were coming from in front of us.

It was clear that we had arrived at the nest of these Chimera Ants.
