Chapter 68 At that moment, Ais was strolling through the festival
The Dungeon would automatically restore its terrain, making it impossible to flatten the land or build houses.
Riveria’s inn was, in fact, just a series of spacious and flat natural caves, reminiscent of the ones found in the labyrinths of Type-Moon’s world.
The cave where Noah and Ryu were currently located had a high ceiling, and with the lighting and blue crystals embedded in the walls, the typical closed-in feeling of a cave wasn’t very noticeable, much like the atmospheric dungeons found in anime.
However, even the most spacious space felt suffocating to Ryu at that moment, a feeling that many adventurers in the DanMachi universe could relate to.
Although her abdomen was already numb from the Curse-inflicted wounds, Ryu still felt a tingling sensation spreading across half her body when Noah’s fingers touched her, a sensation that was both eerie and familiar, like the thrill of exploring a haunted mansion in a Type-Moon game.
Especially when she saw Noah put his blood-stained fingers in his mouth, she felt an overwhelming sense of shame, a feeling that many heroines in anime often experience.
But before she could cry out, she felt Noah’s body undergo a strange transformation, and she couldn’t help but widen her eyes in surprise, a reaction that was both startled and fascinated, much like the intense battles in DanMachi.
His silver short hair didn’t grow longer, and his pale skin didn’t change color; except for his eyes, which turned from a deep blue reminiscent of ice to a ruby-like Blood Color, Noah didn’t exhibit any other unusual symptoms, much like the mysterious transformations found in Type-Moon’s works.
Nevertheless, the clear aura surrounding Noah became somewhat deeper and more enchanting, like the mesmerizing effects of a magical girl’s transformation.
It was as if the moon was shrouded in mist, making it hard to see clearly, yet it had a captivating charm that made one feel lost and unable to escape, much like the romantic moments in a anime series.
Even the scent on his body changed from refreshing and invigorating to alluring and enchanting, like the scent of a rose in full bloom, a classic motif in anime and manga.
Ryu’s body, which had been cold due to blood loss, began to feel a faint heat, and her consciousness grew hazy, a sensation that was both disorienting and intoxicating, like the effects of a powerful magical spell.
In Ryu’s experience, the most similar situation was that of a beast transformation, a concept that was both fascinating and terrifying, much like the mythical creatures found in DanMachi.
This was a phenomenon that occurred in only a few species of Orcs, where their beastly nature would greatly increase, and their intelligence would decrease; however, their Strength, endurance, Speed, and even defense would be significantly enhanced, making them formidable opponents, much like the powerful enemies found in Type-Moon’s games.
Among all beast transformations, the wolf person’s transformation conditions were the most stringent, but also the most powerful, a concept that was both captivating and intimidating, like the legendary creatures found in anime and manga.
The condition for a wolf person’s transformation was to bathe in moonlight, but where could one find moonlight in the Dungeon, a question that many adventurers in DanMachi often asked themselves.
Even on the surface, the weather was unpredictable, and the moon had its phases; moonlit nights weren’t something that occurred every day, a fact that made the wolf person’s transformation all the more rare and mysterious.
However, the physical abilities of a wolf person under the moon were considered superior to all other species, a fact that was both impressive and intimidating, like the powerful abilities of the characters in DanMachi.
In the Asteria Familia, if one had to choose another Vice Captain besides the Captain Alise and Vice Captain Kaguya, the consensus would be the wolf person Neze, a character who embodied the strength and ferocity of a wolf.
Ryu had seen Neze after she transformed into a beast under the moon. Not to mention her already inferior strength, her only remaining advantage in agility was completely eliminated.
Noah’s Combat Power is enhanced, Ryu doesn’t know.
But Ryu felt the sense of danger on his body clearly, and it should even be said to be a masterpiece of the alarm!
This danger isn’t the kind that warriors face, but the kind that Elf females pose!
“You, what’s going on here?”
Noah drew his sword, using it as a mirror, and blinked his bright red eyes, feeling the changes in his body as the Elf’s blood coursed through his veins.
However, aside from his Spirit being a bit high-strung and his body feeling slightly warm, he didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.
“Hmm, a Vampire? I’m not really sure, this is the first time I’ve experienced this kind of change.”
After gazing at his reflection for a while, Noah tossed his sword aside and winked at Ryu, his eyes gleaming with a captivating intensity.
“But no matter what, as long as I can save you, that’s all that matters.”
Vampire?
Save me?
Fundamental couldn’t quite grasp what Noah was saying, but when Ryu met his gaze, she instinctively covered her neck and the wound on her abdomen, which had begun to feel a bit chilly.
“W-what do you mean?”
“I can exchange bodily fluids with an Elf female, create a circuit, and boost our Mana, and I think my Mana can break this curse; if I pour my Mana into your body, the curse will be lifted naturally!”
Exchange bodily fluids?!
The term had a stimulating effect on the pure Elf, like downing a large bottle of super-potent, flammable liquor in one gulp – BOOM!
Ryu’s pale face turned beet red in an instant, and she sat up with a start, as if she had been dying but was suddenly revived, and she tried to make a break for the door.
But just as she straightened her back, Noah pushed her back down onto the bed.
Not only that, but Noah also grasped her hands and pinned them to the bed on either side of her head, half-sitting on top of her.
Although she had been held by Noah before, being held and being pressed down onto the bed like this had entirely different implications.
“Y-you, what do you think you’re doing?”
Overwhelmed by the intense, unfamiliar breath, Ryu couldn’t even muster the strength to struggle, let alone resist.
Her face turned a deep shade of rose, and even her white, elfin ears turned red, with a misty film rising in her sky-blue eyes.
“L-let me go, r-right now, or else I’ll…”
Although her small mouth was threatening him, her voice was so soft and sweet that it made Noah’s bones feel weak.
Elves really do smell amazing, and their blood must be sweet as honey.
“Hey! Wake up! Elf! Ryu! I’m also a newbie when it comes to getting up close and personal with an Elf female, so if you die on me, I’ll be traumatized for life!”
And then, Ryu actually came to, her eyes fluttering open.
Looking up at Noah, who was still pinning her down, Ryu’s cloudy mind could only focus on the word “first time”.
“Y-you, is this really your first time?”
Huh?
Is that really the point right now?
Whether it was before or now, why does this Elf’s focus always seem to be in the wrong place?
However, Noah wasn’t one to pry into things, and besides, he was about to sully the Elf in front of him, so a little white lie wouldn’t hurt.
“Uh, yeah, if I had to say I had any intimate contact before, it was during a fight with a woman – I was getting beaten, so in a moment of desperation, I bit her neck.”
It was that one time when Noah managed to absorb Mana from her Blood and turn the tables, achieving a reversal.
At this moment, as Ruru looked at Noah’s face, she felt a hint of innocence.
However, she couldn’t sense any lust or passion in Noah’s eyes.
Love, shyness, excitement, longing, thrill… all the emotions that youngsters should have when they first interact with the opposite sex were nowhere to be found.
Although he had previously shown expressions of resignation, puzzlement, and curiosity, those were just ripples on the surface.
Even someone as calm and collected as Kaguya had a sore spot that would make her flip when mentioned, and her sharp tongue was a manifestation of her sensitive heart… it was because she was hurt that she needed to shield herself with her Offensive Arts and coldness.
But Noah probably didn’t have that; his heart had long been tempered like steel.
It was precisely because he had wiped away all the confusion, hesitation, and turmoil that youngsters should have that he could present a rather ethereal gentleness.
Thinking this, Ruru felt a pang of sympathy for this young man, who was only a few years older than her, and her own shyness dissipated somewhat.
After all, he had done it to save me…

Meanwhile, on the surface of Orario, in the Central Square, the night had fallen, and the lights illuminated the darkness, with countless stalls lined up, and people of all races passing through, old and young, hand in hand, radiating smiles and joy.
Although the small festival was being held in the Central Square, the crowd of tourists had spilled out into the surrounding streets, bringing vitality to the entire city, which was now filled with a warm atmosphere that dispelled the chill of the winter night.
Near the Babel Tower, Ais was staring blankly at a large hall until Riveria called out to her from behind.
“Ais?”
Snapping back to reality, Ais saw a girl of similar age to herself, with a rosy complexion, offering her an apple.
Looking at Riveria, Ais, after getting her approval, accepted the apple.
“Thanks.”
“Lia should be the one thanking you; thanks to the Adventurers for protecting us, bye-bye!”
Holding the apple and watching the little girl walk away, Ais looked around at the festival crowd, her eyes sparkling with delight.
Suddenly, she felt a chill run down her spine.
BOOM!
A sudden, ominous feeling struck her, like a dark and foreboding cloud looming over the festivities.
