Pandora of Fantasy And Reality Chapter 131

Orc King Ponsuke

「Shah! Come at me-!」

The orc king who was standing in the way of Ponsuke and others  wearing only a pant fought them with only his fists despite his wounds.

Around them were unconscious orcs. The orc king had also tossed away the hammer that he was holding at the beginning.

The orcs surrounded the king.

They were on top of a ring that was prepared……Ponsuke too was already unarmed.

「This is the worst. To think that the orc king will become stronger the more participants there are……I want to retire.」

Their equipments also weren’t at the best condition.

They had just cleared a clearing quest.

They had only done the minimum repair. They didn’t give it their all to prepare.

In addition.

『What are an orc like you doing using magic!』

『Higyaaaa!』

『You, how dare you use such shrewd method!』

『Uncle-! Uncle, uncleeee!』

The magician and priest orcs gave up after the orc king tossed away his hammer and put them into joint lock.

Some orcs used item or skill to lower the king’s status……they got blown away by a lariat.

The orcs who were lying on the floor outside the ring couldn’t stand up.

Prey talked to Ponsuke.

「Ponsuke-kun……I leave the rest to you.」

「Work harder! How should I fight an opponent like this huh!」

When they tried to surround and attack from all directions, the king blew them away with a lariat from his huge body.

Ponsuke definitely felt scared seeing an orc who was bigger than himself.

「Sshaoora!」

Ponsuke dodged the orc king’s drop kick and countered with a punch. The orc king stood up and laughed.

「Nice punch. As expected a warrior has to be like this.」

「It’ll be absolutely better if the orc king has more majesty.」

Ponsuke complained against an NPC while also thinking how he should fight.

But, the orc king’s demeanor changed.

「I wonder when was the last time I got cornered to this degree. Was  it since I got chased around by the elves at the Capital of Temperance?」

「You had also gone through a lot huh.」

The Capital of Temperance was the elves’ stronghold, so it was a  harsh world for orc. Ponsuke wanted to sympathize with the orc king who  had apparently gone through hardship in such world.

「My blood boil and muscles sing when I look at a warrior like you. I shall get serious too!」

After saying that, the orc king became even bigger using orc’s skill Rampage.

「T-this guy can also use that.」

Ponsuke was astonished, but the opponent was orc king――the embodiment  of the last trial itself. It wasn’t strange at all that he could do  something like that.

While Ponsuke was hesitating to use Rampage…….

(No way. It forcefully――)

His body was enlarging with ripping sound.

His hands became larger and his appearance turned animalistic but――.

(Strange. I’m not losing control at all even though I’m in Rampage?)

Normally he would go out of control right now, but Ponsuke was still maintaining control.

The orc king narrowed his eyes seeing Ponsuke’s appearance.

「……Different color?」

Ponsuke was red in color. The orc king fell into thought for a while before he started laughing.

「I see, lord! So you are a lord!」

(What is he saying?_

The orc king spread out his arms.

「Blessing to the orc who is beloved by the goddess! Our god will be delighted too!」

「No, I don’t get――」

「You’ll understand that kind of thing――through battle! DAAAAAAAA!」

The orc king came with a tackle. Ponsuke blocked it and grabbed his horn before throwing him.

(I’m stronger with Rampage! I can do this!)

Ponsuke rejoiced that he could control himself while punching the orc king away.

It seemed that there was something different between Ponsuke and other orcs.

The Necklace of Kind Heart on Ponsuke’s chest was shining.

The orc king stood up again even now and attacked, but Ponsuke was  slightly bigger and he was pushing him back. Perhaps his status was also  higher.

「Youuuu!」

「Take some of this!」

The orcs yelled seeing the two started a fist fight.

「King, king!」

「Lord, lord!」

「Lord! Lord Ponsuke!」

Like that the duel reached the climax…….

「I-it’s over.」

The one who emerged the victor of the fistfight that made the bones creaked and flesh torn was Ponsuke.

The orc king was on his knee on the ring.

「……Magnificent, Lord Ponsuke.」

「Ah, yes.」

And then the orc king’s appearance returned to normal. Ponsuke also returned to normal and…….

「You must have understood from the fight just now. The final trial.  The reward from it is the control of Rampage. From now on, the weakening  period will be shortened.」

Ponsuke nodded even while feeling something was out of place hearing the orc king talking about such game term.

(I’m honestly grateful that it’s possible to control the Rampage now with its demerit decreased.)

With this he wouldn’t become a bother to other anymore.

While he was thinking that, the onlookers――Prey and other orcs became bewildered.

「W-wait a second! We can’t receive the whipping anymore with this then!」

「Erasing the reward like this is too much!」

「I wouldn’t take this trial if only I knew!」

They were seriously frustrated, but both the orc king and Ponsuke ignored them.

「And, I have another reward for Lord Ponsuke. Take it.」

「Reward!」

The orc king started taking off his pant while Ponsuke was thinking about the special reward.

A mosaic appeared to cover the orc king’s crotch.

Ponsuke was dumbfounded.

「Eh? Umm? ……Eh!?」

The orc king smiled. He smiled while holding the red pants toward Ponsuke.

「This is the proof of kingship. The orc king pants. Take it, Lord Ponsuke.」

The orc NPCs at the surrounding cheered. There were even some of them crying.

「No, e……err. Right! Please give it to the other!」

He tried to push it toward Prey, but they were currently sitting on  the floor while looking seriously in despair. They weren’t paying  attention at the slightest to his way.

The orc king put his hands on Ponsuke’s shoulders while his crotch was covered in mosaic.

「Take it, Lord Ponsuke!」

Ponsuke cried.

Even if the pants had some kind of amazing effect……he swore to send  complain to the management that prepared an orc’s used pants as reward.

.

.

.

Ponsuke was crying when he returned to the town.

He was wearing a red pants without any other equipment, in other  words it was a pants-only style……that was because his other equipments  broke.

Also there was just one more problem.

「……I can’t take it off.」

He could take it off if he wanted to, even so the red pants would get equipped again when he changed equipment.

In other words, he would absolutely equip it in the end.

It was the proof of defeating the orc king. In addition it also  possessed various effects like great boost to status and shorter skill  cool down.

The guild masters including Rook who were relaxing in the town were  at a loss of what they should say to Ponsuke after seeing his  appearance.

Rook kindly spoke to Ponsuke who was wiping his tears with his arms.

「T-there won’t be any problem if you put on clothes on top of it.」

「Yeah. But, I can’t take it off. The pants that the orc king wore……I can’t take it off.」

No matter how amazing its effects were, what if he recalled that it was something that other person had worn before?

The red pants had effects that a hardcore clearer would accept  without question, but a casual player like Ponsuke couldn’t accept it.

「There should be others right? Like crown, or some item or weapon that look more kingly!」

Dandy and Pinky averted their gazes from Ponsuke.

Isami and Platina were already gone when anybody realized. Rook was at a loss in front of his friend.

「I-it looks good on you.」

「That doesn’t make me happy.」

◇

The real world.

Akito felt bad when he woke up.

He took off his new headset and stayed in a daze on the hotel’s bed.

「……I’m, dirtied.」

There were two women in underwear who started to wake up at his  sides. Originally he should blush and avert his gaze here but……Akito’s  gaze was fixed to the ceiling the whole time.

Noin――Yumi stretched.

Her large breasts jiggled. They looked like they would spill out from her bra.

「Morning “Ponsuke-kun”.」

「Good morning. Err……Yumi-san.」

「Geez! Just call me Yumi without “-san”.」

As expected he was hesitating to act so familiarly like that. Then Reona got up and put on her clothes.

A single shirt over underwear…….

「It was fun yesterday. Well, normal day that’s no different from the  usual is also good but, stimulation is necessary in moderate amount.」

Clearing quest was a moderate stimulation.

Ponsuke put on a dark smile.

「……I want to take some day off for a while from the clearing.」

「Is that so? Well, that’s also fine though……」

Reona looked slightly embarrassed.

「C-come to think of it, there will be summer festival soon.」

Yumi also started changing and cut into the conversation leisurely.

「Apparently there will be firework too. I wonder if it will be flashier than Pandora.」

Ponsuke grabbed his smartphone.

(So it’s that time already.)

There was also a plan for summer festival inside Pandora. But, there  was a talk that they would gather and enjoyed festival in real life  before that.

Reona was apparently looking forward to it.

「It seems that Lighter will also open a stall, so he’s going to participate in the festival for research.」

「I think it’ll be better if that uncle meet a painful experience at least once.」

He was a guy who kicked down his own comrade from a floating castle.

Even Akito thought that Lighter’s behavior had gotten worse.

Akito finished wearing his clothes and got out from the bed, but then Yumi hugged him from behind before he could stand.

Her large breasts were pressed on his back.

「Ponsuke-ku~n」

「U-umm. This is embarrassing.」

Seeing him flustered like that, Yumi licked his neck. She smiled seeing Akito panicking from that.

「You have part-time work today right? We’ll drive you there so there’s no need to hurry from the morning.」

「B-but――」

Reona had been in a call with someone. She ended the call and looked at Akito and Yumi.

「There won’t be any problem if we go by car to there after breakfast. Don’t worry, there’s enough time.」

There was also the matter of them buying the new device for him, so Akito accompanied them to the end.

.

.

.

At the part-time workplace.

Yakumo was in a bad mood since the morning.

「What’s the matter senpai?」

「I told you call me without honorific.」

「But we’re in the middle of work.」

Akito and Yakumo had been together in the workplace since morning,  but one person being in a bad mood caused the atmosphere inside the  store to be bad too.

There was no middle school student doing practice part-time work today.

It was also a time period when no customer came. They were free Akito thought about resorting the shelves or something but…….

「You smell like perfume.」

Yakumo hugged Ponsuke’s back and sniffed his neck while saying that.

Ponsuke shook from chills.

「E-err, yesterday I was with Yumi-san and Reona-san, umm……」

「Hmmm. So you were having fun with them until morning.」

Akito was bewildered by Yakumo’s interrogation. He was praying for a customer to come quickly.

Yakumo chuckled.

「Just joking. I wanted to try copying this quarrel scene in drama.」

Akito felt relieved. He pressed his hand on his chest while sighing.

「Spare me from that. I got really scared there.」

「Sorry, sorry.」

Yakumo said that while walking around to Akito’s front and hugged him again.

「S-senpai?」

「Nn~?」

Two part-time workers were hugging each other inside the store. A customer would feel irritated if they witnessed such scene.

「A-a customer is coming.」

「It’s still fine. Five more seconds……three, two, one」

Yakumo quietly let go. At the same time the automatic door opened and a customer entered.

「Welcome」

Yakumo greeted the customer with a smile. Akito felt his heart pounding even while returning to his work.

『The next news.』

The news was playing in the monitor inside the dark room. It was a news program about Pandora.

The former executive was analyzing the recording seriously.

「Sixty percent of the news is about Pandora now.」

There were too many people who weren’t concerned about just how abnormal this was.

Was people simply stupid? Or was it Pandora’s influence? He didn’t know what to think.

Prey――the former minister entered inside the room.

He brought ice cream as souvenir.

「How is it going?」

「It’s going well. Not only at this side, it’s also going surprisingly smoothly at that side.」

That side――the information broker and the new management.

Their plan was progressing without any problem at all.

「True. Our side too can’t do anything right now. Now then, about the time to make contact with Ponsuke-kun――」

「……I’m thinking at the summer festival.」

There would be a lot of people there. The number of security camera was also few.

And most of all there would be crowds.

It was perfect for blending in.

But, the former executive was concerned about something.

「Will he cooperate with us?」

「Do you think he won’t?」

「It’s possible. If guild master reject the world of Pandora, the  guild right now will also collapse. To put it simply, the women around  him right now will also return to normal.」

Those girls’ eccentricities were standing out, but were they like that originally?

They couldn’t say with finality that those girls weren’t getting influenced by Selector.

If they came to their senses, they might even distanced themselves from Ponsuke.

「……I think that’ll be for Ponsuke-kun’s own good though.」

「No, that’s true but! I think so too but……you know, he’s a boy. Any  boy will dream about harem at least once. Do you think he’ll be able to  let it go?」

The former minister fell into thought.

「I can’t speak with guarantee but, I also don’t want to obtain his  cooperation by tricking him. After all Ponsuke-kun will need that much  determination.」

The former executive also nodded.

「You’re, right.」

What would Ponsuke――Akito choose?

.

.

.

Fantasy――.

Or reality――.
