Isekai Rohan

It took the group an entire week to reach their destination on foot. There was no way they would be afforded horses. As adventurers had such high rates of fatality. The lords didn't really agree with also sending the mounts to their deaths. Not to mention the upkeep costs.

Before entering the liquid like sphere, that was the portal into the dungeon. Asai looked at his new skill again.

[Delicious essence]

As he expected. He had received a skill in accordance to the woman's personal skill set. When Annie was seated upon his face. He had noticed that she tasted amazingly sweet. Almost addicting. For scientific purposes, he had cut his own finger to taste his blood. Rather than the iron like taste, he found it to be sweet like sugar. 

As much as Mel loved the new taste of his cum. Even questioning him as to whether he had switched up his diet in which he replied.

"Yeah, I've been eating more pineapples lately." He honestly worried. Would beasts find me to be more alluring, more tasty? My meat, my flesh, my blood... Ugh. 

...

"Hey Mel, are you sure about what you said the other night?"

"Mm? Yep, definitely. One hundred percent, no mistake about it."

"I-It doesn't feel right to me though."

"Mmm~ Honestly, I think you're too stiff. You're still young, you definitely should explore more. And besides, I'm confident my pussy is your favourite, so no matter how many flavours you taste. You'll come running back to me at the end of the day."

-

"Mel's view on life is that I'm too uptight, and that I should learn to live a little more, let loose and enjoy more. Am I really destined to become a harem protagonist?" Asai internally questioned himself.

...   

[Asai: Lvl 47]  [Mel: Lvl 29]  [Clam: Lvl 28]  [Benny: Lvl 24]  [Gary: Lvl 22]

At daybreak. The party dived into the dungeon headfast. Thankfully the portal didn't close like Crystal Quarry's dungeon. 

"You guys wait here and prepare for battle. I'm going to go on ahead to scout." He ordered towards the others.

"No, let me come with you, just in case." Mel was reluctant to letting him go solo. It was here that he had to awfully blunt, for their sake.

"Look, my entire battle style allows me to perform better solo. You guys are basically deadweight to me until you get strong enough. I'm nearly twice your levels."

"Levels?" Questioned Gary. Benny and Clam also nodded in confusion. By now they were getting used to these terms and words that Asai would occasionally use.

"Ah, err. Never mind. Just follow my orders alright?" The three lads saluted, whilst Mel nodded.

Venturing in alone, Asai felt better, he was now in his element. Casting [Hide] and waltzing in like a walk in the park, it didn't take long for him to find his first monster.

[Mollek: Lvl 45] 

"Perfect. A solo mob, just what I needed as warm up."

The monster stood tall, its legs bulging with muscles like a body builder. Its feet consisted of long horse like hooves. This beast was a humanoid type. Adorning a Cows face, with the metal ring within its nose. It wore a red belt around its neck like a scarf. On One shoulder it sported a blood-red shoulder pad that was larger than its head. It's long arms were long and hairy. In one of its arms was an axe that could cut humans asunder.

"Well, no time like the now." Before he brought the others down, Asai decided to personally compare himself. Approaching with [Hide] Out of stealth he dropped [Psychic Phantom] onto the Mollek's small head. It erupted as expected, slaying the monster.

Suddenly, a light bulb lit up within his mind. 

"Yeah, lets test that!" He delved deeper in until he found another solo Mollek. Within this encounter he covered his dagger with [Divinity] before casting [Psychic Phantom]. The golden energy mixed with a vein of black, the two shot out and although Asai had only targeted its head, the torso blew up into pieces along with it.

"More damage I see..." He commented, whilst wiping the blood of his face. Deciding that to be enough tests, he returned to the group. Out of habit he travelled in [Hide]. Upon returning he was overjoyed to find the MFC training, sparring against each other whilst Mel gave them pointers.

Both Asai and Mel preferred using daggers, and short swords. The MFC however preferred longswords. When Asai popped out of [Hide] he gave the group quite the fright. 

"Alright, here's the plan. I've scouted a bit and it seems most of these monsters run solo. I will use my stealth and hide, whilst you four surround and attack it. I want you guys to gain as much practical experience as possible whilst we're here. So I won't intervene unless absolutely necessary. Or If I deem it time to move on to the next mob." As much as he wanted to tell Mel to stay on the backline, he knew she had her own pride as an adventurer to be treated like a damsel in distress.

"Yes boss!" The MFC saluted.

"Oh, and I don't recommend blocking, try to dodge and only if you have no choice, then try to parry. The monster here is called Mollek, its choice of weapon are battle-axes."

"How did you know the name boss?" Questioned Benny. Asai at this point had revealed some of his skills to them. mostly [Hide] and [Psychic Phantom] however, he decided it best to keep his system to himself.

"I err. Saw it in a book back in Einhoren. Unlike you idiots, I actually did my part and studied. Enough chit-chat lets move."
