Leveling Up with My Adorable Monster Girl Harem!

Chapter 44: Daily life on an adventure with two monster girls

"It's like America all over again…." Leon looked ahead of himself, gazing at the road continuously extending forward, seemingly having no end.

It was the fifth day of their adventure. In those five days, Leon, Louise, and Celes became much closer than during their days in the village. They always spent time together, after all.

Louise cooked, and her friends helped her hunt and prepare stuff. Leon tended and fed horses. He also used their help to fix the carriage's wheels, as some roads were worse than Poland's highways. He'd also force them to follow their schedule for the best progress, too.

Celes kept her eyes and bats on the surroundings. But the former was questionable since she mostly drank and complained that her liquor disappeared way too fast.

Three of them also slept in the carriage, which was quite cramped. Of course, the party would be able to stuff two more people for their adventure, but Leon wasn't sleeping with normal people. Louise's tails grew significantly larger since she leveled up, and Celes often spread her arms and legs, her tits spilling on both sides.

"America?" the owner of those abundant peaks asked Leon as she took a seat next to his driver's seat.

Leon sighed, recalling his time in a new continent as he'd visited it to play for one of the championships. "North America, to be precise. It's a continent. Looking at the map, you wouldn't expect it to be this big. But it's actually damn too big. After winning a championship, I stayed with Athena to sightsee for a few more days. You can guess how it ended."

"You spent more time in a 'car', didn't you?" Celes curved her lips up, amused.

"Yeah."

Leon's party was on a similar journey now.

The difference was that Leon couldn't just stop and eat in a restaurant. Sleeping in a hotel would be more comfortable, too, but Leon didn't really mind sleeping with Celes and Louise. He only hated when Celes's hand would slap him out of nowhere, waking him up in the middle of the night.

It'd be great if they trained so much that she wouldn't have any strength to move during her sleep. It was impossible, for they needed the energy to protect themselves in a vast world.

Of course, it'd be good to have someone on a watch, but Celes reassured them that they could leave their carriage's safety to her bats — those would notify them of any dangers.

"Wouldn't it be better to tame and raise a bat?" Leon suddenly asked as he reminisced about today's night with the slap on his face burning.

Celes was also here because of it. Even though it was not really her fault and it amused the girls, she'd apologized.

"I'll contract a monster bat from the spirit realm when I hit level one hundred," Celes revealed one of her future skills. "It's better than raising a monster bat from the Freya World. If such a bat dies, he'll turn into a spirit form and return to the spirit realm for resurrection. The monsters outside the spirit realm don't have that privilege."

Leon's book of monsters flashed with new pieces of information. "I might be able to turn a bat into a card and give him to you. That doesn't sound like a bad idea, actually."

He'd decided to focus on high-quality monsters, so those from The Human Emperor's hands became Leon's target. He also believed that powerful monsters slithered around those areas — Celes was a good example of it.

"If you find a good one, I'll take it as a present." Celes liked the idea, too.

"I received a few presents from you already." Leon flatly spoke.

Celes turned her red eyes to him and grinned. "Skills or slaps?"

"Guess."

Knowing that those skills were actually her pay for having her life saved by Leon and Louise, Celes tactfully became silent and looked ahead. She couldn't help but smile again, much wider than before. Her heart felt so light and comfortable in Leon's presence — all because of no strict rules.

Even Leon and him forcing them to follow his schedule wasn't strict. Celes could complain and even throw a bottle in protest, and he'd only glare at her back and forcefully draw her out of the carriage.

"I feel like I understand you better, Master." Celes suddenly parted her lips.

Leon glanced at her with one of his eyes. "Hmm?"

"I kinda wouldn't mind if we adventured like that for a thousand years." Celes ambiguously shared her thoughts, alluding to Leon's wish for a slow life in the village. She didn't know exactly what stopped Leon from stepping outside, but a slow life was surely not bad. "I wonder how our adventure would end."

"With a better and more spacious carriage, that's for sure." Leon guffawed aloud.

Celes covered her lips, for she burst out laughing as well. "What about our relationship?"

"Oh, well. If we were to adventure for thousand years, my left cheek would remember your slap. And your ass would remember mine." Leon shared some of his newly developed thoughts.

Two nights ago, he wanted to slap Celes back, but it felt like a sin to slap such a gorgeous face. His eyes naturally went below. He'd decided to keep it to himself, at least for now, but Leon shared it with her since she became more open about their future.

"It's been just five days, and you already thought of domestic violence?" Celes stifled her laughter.

Leon narrowed his eyes, shut his lips, and wheeled to her. That look in his eyes drew out the vampiress' giggles.

"I've also thought of snatching your liquor. But that would end up with you biting me, wouldn't it? Now, that's a quality liquid I must protect from your teeth." Leon struck back, or so he thought.

"It's nice to hear that you're prepared in case I suddenly attack you, Master. It gives me more confidence to snatch that neck of yours." Celes happily patted Leon's shoulder, giving him one of her unique, appealing gazes.

He just hovered his eyes on her beautiful face.

"I'll head back to Louise. She must be feeling lonely. See you later on a dinner, Master." Celes bid farewell before Leon could reply to her ambiguous smile.

She hopped off the seat without stopping the horses, then simply entered the carriage's interior as though moving horses weren't a problem.

"Louise, want to know about America?"

"America?"

"It's a continent from Master's world."

Because Celes emphasized how vast that continent was, Louise had a nightmare that day.

She was in a broad jungle without any road outside, lost.

Having that nightmare, Louise elbowed Leon in his sleep.

His eyes snapped open, and he glared at the dark ceiling. "I'll make these two work for a better carriage."

Celes heard those words, her lips curving up.

"It's finally a city, Master! We'll find subsidiary guilds here and start our career, right?!" Louise peeked outside the carriage, her eyes widening at the expanding city before her.

After many villages and stops, Leon's party finally stepped on a higher level.

A grand city spread itself before them.

Leon gazed ahead, feeling excited. "Yeah."

Celes silently overlooked their situation. "So many carriages… It seems like an event is happening inside the city… Master, you might meet more than a subsidiary guild and its people."

"Isn't that good?" Louise turned around to look at the vampiress and asked, blinking.

Leon replied from the driver's seat, "More people, more chances for trouble. And if the event is big, we'll meet big fishes. Well, let's find out what's going on."
