My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 220:

Dungeon Stampede 2.0 Kawamo

By flying, Serai-san and I planned to head straight to the river.

Our calculations had us gliding eastward about a kilometer at an altitude of 200 meters to reach the river. However, we actually shot up to about 300 meters high, and then both of us suddenly dropped to about 100 meters in altitude. Just when it seemed we might crash, wings inexplicably sprouted from the back of the Fly Queen suit, stabilizing our flight.

Guided by this unknown power, we were now transitioning into the Edo River landing phase.

(Hmm… Heading south is causing us to catch a lot of crosswind… It's natural, but those thick pillars supporting the highway on our left are worrisome. If we get blown into one of those, we won't escape unscathed…)

Additionally, lowering our altitude made us feel the speed more acutely. The wind whipped around us fiercely, making stable flight difficult without angling the membranes.

(Serai-san is… alright, she's fine. Still in that kitten-caught-by-the-scruff position, but following closely thanks to the mucus rope. Let's focus on the water landing…)

Flying for the first time, I was both excited and nervous. But I'm a die-hard otaku; it's not like I've only ever played eroge games.

I've spent dozens of hours playing realistic 3D simulation games where you pilot real fighter jets. So, even if this is my first real flight, I'm well-prepared simulation-wise. My partner in the back seat often praised me with "Bull's-eye!" So… I'll be fine.

"Here we go… Now!"

[Puff!]

The mucous membranes on both sides ballooned out, dramatically reducing our speed.

At the same time, I closed the lower membrane, creating a banana boat-like mucus balloon. This is the foundation of the mucus boat. By infusing it with magic, it flattens into an oval shape.

Thickening it and bringing it underfoot, the mucus boat now caught the wind, increasing air resistance. By tucking in my arms and adopting a stance to press down on the mucus boat, we could land in this position…

[Splash! Splash! Splish! Splosh!]

(Hah… Successful landing! When the highway loomed close, it was nerve-wracking, but we managed somehow.)

Landing safely on the dark green Edo River, I reeled in Serai-san with the mucus rope.

"Stretch out your hand! …A little more! …Got it! Are you okay? Any injuries?"

Serai-san landed softly in a kneeling position on the mucus boat shaped like a rubber raft. A perfectly clean soft landing.

"………"

"Are you hurt somewhere?"

"Mo…"

"Hm?"

"It was so scary! You idiot, Egetsu!"

"Guh!?"

As I leaned closer to hear her small voice, Serai-san started shaking me vigorously while crying. Hey! Serai-san…! That's getting in the way!!

…..

Though we landed safely on the Edo River, Serai-san became extremely upset. It seems she was really scared, thinking she might die in the air.

"Serai-san…?"

"……"

No response. She's really mad.

"Hey, Serai-san…?"

"………"

Well, I have no choice but to use a little trick.

"Machi… You must have been really scared to be this angry. I'm truly sorry for frightening you."

"………"

"But I wanted to fly with you, Machi."

"……What?"

"Everyone has childhood dreams, right? It's a bit embarrassing, but my dream was to fly."

"So?"

"But Nina-san is rational, and Ruu is timid. I thought only you would understand my adventurous spirit and share this special moment with me."

"Only me…?"

"Yes. Experiencing a first flight alone would be a waste, right? I wanted to share this special moment with you, Machi…"

"Egetsu…"

"But I made you really scared because of my selfishness. I'm truly sorry!"

"N-no! Maybe I overreacted! I wasn't that mad…"

"Really? Thank you! We had a scary moment, but this special memory is ours alone."

"Yeah… Thinking back, it was kind of fun! Our first flight together!"

"Yes, Machi!"

"Egetsu!"

Machi's faceplate opened as she hugged me and moved in for a kiss… Maybe I'll cover it with a mucus sheet from here on.

…..

Thus, the mucus boat drifted lazily down the river.

Inside the boat covered with a mucus sheet, Serai-san and I lay side by side, flirting like on a park date.

But this isn't thanks to the skills of the numerous eroge protagonists inside me, but rather Nina-san's advice. Honestly…! I often got a lot of romantic feedback from Nina-san.

It's embarrassing to get romantic advice from a younger woman. But I was greatly helped by it.

Before meeting them, I was an otaku who never had a girlfriend. That's me.

Yet now, I'm in my first relationship with two women, involving both physical and emotional intimacy. This is like a beginner attempting a high-difficulty dungeon right from the start.

So, while keeping my inexperience a secret, Nina-san couldn't overlook my awkwardness and lack of romantic sense.

Thus, I often received helpful advice from Nina-san, like, ‘In this situation, you should do this,' or ‘You need to act more like this…' I followed her advice and managed to get by. Her timing was always perfect, providing tips while there was still time to recover.

I've been saved by her advice countless times…

"Egetsu… I love you…"

"I love you too… Machi."

So, the way I made up with Serai-san was actually thanks to Nina-san's teaching.

That's why I hold Nina-san in high regard. Without her, I wouldn't have maintained such a harmonious relationship.

"You're thinking about Shizu now, aren't you!? I can tell!"

"N-no! I was just thinking it's a bit unfair that we're the only ones happy like this… And wondering if Nina-san and the others are okay…"

"Well, that's fine then…"

With that, Serai-san leaned into my chest again, a satisfied smile on her face.

Phew… Even though the Moth King mask only has the mouth part open, you can tell, Serai-san. But since you seem to be really enjoying this, I'll let you be for a while longer.
