Natalie was fucked.

  And not even in the good way. Though, by all indicators, that would be happening soon. But for the moment, Natalie meant in how thhly she'd been promised. How easily Ana had extracted those admissions from her. The plete and total embarrassment she'd made of herself, just because anirl had gotten up close and teased her.

  How was she supposed to look Ana in the eye, now? She'd already been struggling to be normal around her, and now she'd been forced to expin just how badly she wahe irl to pin her down and fuck her senseless. And holy, even Natalie hadn't known how much she did, until five minutes ago. She'd been trying to fight it, because what a shameful situation to be in, wanting to be fucked by her own cock.

  There was one saving grace keeping Natalie from melting into a puddle: The bloodthirsty morying to kill the two of them.

  tinuing the pattern, the room opened with bat. It was hard to be blushing and tripping over her feet while focused on survival. It was a good, if intense, pate ser. And Natalie k only deyed the iable. A brief distra before the real shenanigans of the dungeon began again. Before … whatever happened , between her and Ana.

  Hell, a sed ago, Natalie had been ready to be pinned down without the intervention of the dungeon. For Ana to take her right there in the hallway. What had gotten into her? What had gotten into Ana? Seriously. The cool, aloof, academic she knew Ana as did not seem to fit with how she could just switto another mode. Ohat would pin Natalie against a wall and force her to admit some of the most mortifying things that had ever e from her mouth.

  And why was Natalie so weak to it? Why did it turn her on so much?

  In short, Natalie was a mess, and very much appreciated the reprieve grao her in the form of a vionster.

  The sed bat challenge of this bizarre series wasn't a swarm, but rather, a sirong oppo—which was, on paper, her and Ana's more preferred fight. But that didn't mean it was easier than the crystal spider swarm. The difficulty had been ramped up by several tiers, so despite them beier suited to siarget bat, they were pressed far harder. The [Animated Shard Knight] was a cye wielding a massive two-handed sword, and [Hunker Down] could only save Natalie on a while—and she was g armor, and also still adjusting to Ana's new body.

  By the time Natalie and Ana put the creature down, she anting, bleeding, and had thankfully had her mind cleared from earlier embarrassments. She much appreciated the fight, sidering that.

  But it had been a real challenge, enough to make Natalie fear what the third bat room would be. Whether they could even ha. They didn't have a healer on standby to save them from serious injuries.

  For minor ohough, they had the health potions from earlier. Natalie drank ohehe ing solution to freshen up. She appreciated the slippery liquid's ability to clear away just about anything, bringing her baore presentable state—especially sihe gruesomeness of dunge had apparently been bined with lovemaking. It would be rather unpleasant to get into anything intimate while actively wounded.

  Like usual, a loot chest cttered into the ground after the [Animated Shard Knight]'s defeat. After ing up and healing, she picked up the materializing monster core from the creature's now-disied corpse, then headed over to see what they'd gotten. As always, she felt a mix of trepidation aement at what might be ihe chest. Sure, Natalie appreciated how their team seemed to receive much better loot than most teams, but the bizarre items that came out certainly caused problems for her heart—and occasionally, her sense of shame.

  But this was a bat enter, so thankfully—or maybe disappointingly?—nothing lewd came out. Instead, it was more of the stat potions from earlier.

  "Potions that give perma stat bonuses," Ana said, shaking her head. "And we're not getting just one of them, but multiple, now. It's unbelievable."

  Natalie agreed. Before, they'd received a siion that granted furor. This time, they'd gotten three more: two that boosted prowess, and one for tenacity.

  "Guess it depends on how much of a boost it gives, but yeah," Natalie said. "It's basically a mini level-up." Gear could also improve stats, but there were only four equipment slots and two on slots—so there were hard limitations there. Potions, however, could simply be ed, and the user would see perma boosts forever.

  "I figure it's roughly the same as a minor equipment boost," Natalie said. It would make sense if the w was so simir because they gave simir effects. So, in a way, it was like having ara level-two item equipped at all times. Put like that, she became even more incredulous at just how fantastic the items were. Maybe not their most immediately game-ging loot, but still pretty crazy.

  "Only have four total now," Ana said. "One more and we could split them evenly."

  "Challenges aren't over yet. This chest isn't over. Might get more." Natalie tucked the potions in with the health potions, which were stored in the bag they'd gotten in the first room. She hahem delicately sihey had to be worth a fortune. How much so, she wasn't sure, but if a price ut on them, it would probably be enough to make her eyes water.

  Having secured the vials of gss, Natalie closed and popped open the chest. A sed bag of s followed, this one just as heavy, but with more silver mixed into the broha. For a sed time, Natalie found herself disbelieving at the sheer lucrativeness of dungeon delving—and especially her brand of dungeon delving. Even Ana, who as far as Natalie knew, was a minor noble or perhaps someone of eveer importance, was impressed at the sums they were drawing out. Though maybe that was just at the disproportionate payout pared to what they should be receiving. An academiterest. Ana hadn't ever seemed especially ied in their delving rewards in a financial sense, only how they could be used for their progression.

  A third open-and-close of the chest revealed ay bottom. Natalie could hardly be disappointed by three stat-boosters and a hefty payout, and a part of her was even relieved that they didn't have to deal with another fiasco item.

  At the st distra being handled, Natalie was forced to front the loomi. The sed lewd challenge, ing up shortly. The first had been to sua's cock, and seeing how the theme seemed to be progressively more inteuations, Natalie o be ready for anything.

  She swallowed. Her intuition told her it wouldn't be some slightly more lewd event. If using bat as a guide, the swarm had been easy, and the bat of this room had nearly been too much to handle. Following that pattern, it was likely time that Natalie would be getting what she'd begged Ana for.

  Her own cock, inside her.

  Oh, heavens. Was she ready for that?
