Reincarnated as a Dungeon Master, I Became Unstoppable by Doting on My Monsters—My Gorgeous Monsters Have Started to Conquer the World on Their Own! - Chapter 43: The Impulsiveness

The white floor of the giant tower of Nadinares expressed the intensity of Biondetta’s battle as it was

The many layers of bloodstains, like the rendezvous point of a river, indicated that they, who had been fighting there, had continued to fight, still wounded.

One belonged to Grimrich, who had fought despite being chopped to pieces, and the other belonged to Biondetta, who had fought despite losing her arm.

Alan didn’t know which of those blood belonged to, but he could tell it was the amount of blood that could endanger his life either way.

“I-I’m sorry! I didn’t think you thought so highly of me… I-I’ll protect you even if it costs me my life from now on.”

“…Biondetta. I might have misunderstood you. I thought you were selfish and selfish, but you charged in prepared to die for the sake of your friends.”

Alan and Tot thanked each other.

All of them were misguided, but to them, Biondetta looked plenty heroic.

“Stop joking around. You can’t beat the enemy, and the right to protect me isn’t something someone like you can obtain.”

Biondetta’s statement made Alan lose his temper and speak.

“I-I may not be able to do it right now, but I want it to happen sooner or later! So please don’t die until I get back! After all, I…”

In that instant, Biondetta punched Alan in the face.

It was a full-speed hook punch from Quickness Status S, and Alan slammed hard into the wall. He immediately lost consciousness, blood spilling from his head.

“Th-That was close… The outside world is dangerous. I-I almost had my first confession event taken…”

Biondetta was breaking out in a cold sweat for the first time since she’d stepped outside.

Alan had cornered Biondetta even more than Grimrich, a B-Rank monster, through his confession.

Tot’s mouth trembled at the excessive turn of events, meaninglessly pointing at Alan’s toppled body.

“H-Hey! Wh-What are you doing?! What are you going to do? Carry her and go home…”

“Aiwanabonchu, Yuashatashata, and the second confession has your name. Amaryllis!”

Hesitantly closing in on Biondetta, Tot was knocked unconscious by Rosarosa’s chant. Rosarosa had made the decision that she couldn’t fool him any further.

“I put them both to sleep. Let’s pretend these two fainted when they saw the blood.”

Rosarosa then surveyed her surroundings as if troubled.

“Yeah… I’ll spread the poison around here. It’ll pass through, and since Biondetta-chan cleaned up the enemy, I don’t think people will die even if I sprinkle poison or something around here.”

With that, Rosarosa began inspecting monster corpses. Planting poison in corpses was one of her specialties.

“I’ll leave it to you. I’m asking if the subjugation team is coming.”

The rest of the time was spent preparing the poison-dispersing device Rosarosa had originally designed for her inconspicuously.

That said, it was something Rosarosa could only use using her Unique Skills, and it wasn’t much of a setup—it was a booby trap using a bag and clasp.

However, its area of effect and incubation period of poison were among the best of Rosarosa’s concoctions, and I’d figured that if I could scatter this, I’d be able to bring Nadine’s Dungeon Attack to a halt.

Rosarosa set up that poison sac prepared using Nadine’s materials, with a kiss of “Please do.”

“Man, it’s been a long time, Nadine. But I’m looking forward to going home. You’ve finished moving the dungeon, right?”

… Biondetta’s skill, “Wasp Summoning,” can be used to carry letters.

Biondetta and Rosarosa still couldn’t write in Etina’s language, but they’d paid the local representative and used the code to contact the other Nanaya shrine maidens.

Over the past month, the two of them had known through that letter that the members of the Yuuto’ Labyrinth of Ragnel had taken over a certain island and departed from that land of Ragnel.

“Well, there’s nothing useful about us being there to renovate the dungeon.”

Biondetta answers unfriendlyly.

“What? Rosarosa wanted to be there for the design! Unlike all the cramped dungeons up until now, you get a floor just for Rosarosa, right?”

Rosarosa’s eyes sparkled as she spoke.

“First, I want a mixing room, a flower field, a greenhouse, and plants that grow in the desert. Ah! All I have to do is make a tiny Earth, and everything will be solved!”

Rosarosa smiled theatrically in surprise.

“There’s no way you’d get that much DP at your disposal.”

“Why?! Rosarosa-chan’s working so hard to infiltrate!”

“It’s obvious that we need to secure Yuuto-sama’s defenses first.”

And just as their argument heated up, Alan’s body, which should have been put to sleep, twitched.

“I… I…”

And while muttering those sleep-talking words, she reached for her sword.

“Huh? He’s awake.”

Rosarosa looked at Alan blankly.

“What are you doing, Rosarosa? I gave you some sleeping pills.”

“Yeah. With her power, he should be asleep…”

Rosarosa lost all her energy at the unexpected turn of events and stared blankly at Alan as if her eyes had been stolen.

“This, it must be the power of love. Because Biondetta sacrificed her arm to protect him, it’s not just a vague fondness. He’s properly ‘in love’ with her.”

Rosarosa’s voice was trembling, and she was speaking quickly.

What she was saying was true, and Alan had been able to adore Biondetta as a member of the opposite sex properly, but there was no way Biondetta would be happy about that thought.

“I wonder how thin a man is to fall in love with a mere arm. How much Yuuto-sama sacrificed his life for us.”

Biondetta snorted in boredom, but Rosarosa was muttering to herself, observing Alan’s movements.

“But even if this is a misunderstanding, he’s prepared to sacrifice his life. It’s true love, a love so strong he would lay down his life for Biondetta-chan.”

Rosarosa’s eyes were unfocused as if possessed.

Biondetta undid the skill, saying it was “bad,” and looked at Rosarosa. In this state, Rosarosa couldn’t be taken on in one hand.

“‘Aiwanabonchu’ and ‘Yuashatashata’…”

And just as Biondetta had predicted, Rosarosa tried to activate the skill without any refusal. Biondetta had already guessed that it would cause a deadly poison.

“You can’t kill these guys, Rosarosa .”

Biondetta paid attention in a motherly voice, completely changing from the harsh voices she’d heard so far.

“Let’s prove that love is greater than romance. Let’s show that even without such a fling, Lord Wito is far more magnificent.”

Rosarosa blinked her large, round eyes expressionlessly and spoke to Biondetta.

“Yuuto-sama doesn’t want that.”

“Besides, Alan-kun is such a good boy. Onii-chan might scold you if you kill such a good boy. And then maybe he’ll kill Rosarosa-chan. Maybe he’ll choke you down while shredding you.”

Rosarosa must have thought chanting would stop her because she approached Alan’s sleeping body. Though she was unsteady on her feet, there was joy on her face.

“Hah. Geez. Don’t get Yuuto-sama involved in your crazy fetishes.”

Biondetta scratched her head.

“Geez, Rosarosa. It’s all right. It’s all right. Everyone loves you, the cute Rosarosa. Of course, I love you, too. Everyone does love you. And it’s always been that way. Even for a moment, Yuuto-sama will never forget you. After all, he loves you from the bottom of his heart.”

With that, Biondetta hugged Rosarosa from behind, then patted her on the head to calm her down. Once she realized that Rosarosa still wouldn’t stop reaching for Alan’s neck, she forced him to turn around and suck on her lips.

…That was one of Rosarosa’s bad habits.

She’s always afraid of losing the love of the wight because she thinks that the moment the wight falls in love with her, she’ll throw herself away.

And ever since he learned that he could never forget the three women he’d hurt because he couldn’t fall in love, he’d been seized by the desire to be deeply hurt by the weight himself.

Even if it was a regret or a painful memory, he thought it was better than being forgotten by the wight… That said, it was just an impulse, and after thinking about it, he hadn’t made that decision.

As such, it was common for Rosarosa to feel anxious about losing Yuuto’s love, and she always took steps to kill good creatures to get Yuuto to scold her.

Until now, the other Nanaya shrine maidens had succeeded in stopping that urge every time.

That was why, even then, Biondetta had comforted her as usual—to say that Yuuto would never abandon Rosarosa.

And that should have been no problem, as usual—as long as she hadn’t been distracted by Rosarosa’s heinous behavior and turned off her “wide hearing.”

Zaza. The sound of someone stopping. Biondetta and Rosarosa kissed each other as if to prove their love for each other, and when they heard that sound, they regained their sanity.

“Umm, I came to save you, but what are you two doing, covered in blood?”

Next to them stood Evelyn, the A-Rank Hunter standing in front of them during the rally, her face plastered with a smile as she readied her weapon.
