The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri

As Kiyono Makoto spoke softly, the item's attributes were quickly displayed before the girls' eyes.

[Item: Skill Sealing Stone]

[Category: Curiosities]

[Note: This item has several layers of seals, which can only be unlocked after completing a series of real-world tasks. After breaking the final seal, you will randomly obtain one sealed skill.]

[Note: Sealing Stones have an automatic detection function. The higher the compatibility, the higher the quality of the skill that will be unlocked.]

"It can automatically detect compatibility; everyone should give it a try."

Kiyono Makoto handed the sealing stone to Eriri beside him, saying, "Whoever has the highest compatibility will get the sealing stone."

"I'll give it a try."

Eriri curiously took the skill sealing stone. The stone, which had been emitting a faint blue light in Kiyono Makoto's hand, quickly turned into a dim white light.

"It seems someone's compatibility is quite low."

Kasumigaoka Utaha held out her right hand. "Give it to me."

"whispering sound."

Eriri gave a soft hum and handed over the sealing stone.

The next second.

The sealing stone emitted a faint blue light in the senior's hand.

"Looks like I'm a little better than someone else."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's lips curled up slightly.

Eriri: "It's just a tiny bit, what's there to be so proud of!"

Next, Rio Futaba and Shoko Nishimiya both received sealing stones, but unfortunately, the compatibility wasn't good; they were either white or blue.

"It seems we're not a good match..."

Eriri complained as she returned the stone to Kiyono Makoto.

"Kato has not yet tested the compatibility."

Kiyono Makoto reminds you.

"Huh?"

Eriri's eyes widened upon hearing this, only then realizing that she had completely forgotten about Kato Megumi, who was standing quietly beside her. She quickly stuck out her pink tongue.

"Ahem... Kato-kun, here you go."

"Thank you, Eriri-san."

As Kato Megumi extended her right hand, a golden light suddenly shone forth the moment her fingertips touched the skill sealing stone.

"Huh, golden light?"

"Wow, that's amazing! It must be much more powerful than blue and white light, right?"

"..."

The girls were astonished.

"It seems Kato's skills are a very good match."

Kiyono Makoto looked at the bob-haired girl and said simply, "This skill stone is yours."

"Well......"

Kato Megumi pursed her pink lips, not refusing, but softly thanking everyone, "Thank you... It seems that only after leaving the instance can the real-world quest be unlocked."

"Then we'll talk about it after we evacuate."

Kiyono Makoto withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Eriri:

"Let's get started."

"Huh?"

"Go lure the monster; we have to take care of that archer, otherwise we won't be able to cross the bridge."

The enemy was in the dark while we were in the light, and we had no idea from which direction the arrows would come from. The arrows were also incredibly fast and powerful. Apart from Kiyono Makoto, who could dodge them with his animal instincts, none of the girls could escape. Therefore, we had to deal with the player blocking the bridge.

At times like these, something is needed to charge into battle and serve as a target.

Eriri clenched her fists upon hearing this:

"...I understand, let's go."

Kiyono Makoto looked at his seniors and the others, his tone calm: "You guys stay hidden for now. If anything happens, just send a message."

"clear."

"Kiyono-kun, please be careful."

The girls gave each other words of advice.

After finishing his explanation, Kiyono Makoto looked at Takumi and bent down to squat down:

"Come on up."

"Hmph~ It's not like I can't walk by myself..."

Eriri's pretty face flushed slightly, and she muttered something under her breath, but she obediently lay on Kiyono Makoto's back.

There's no way around it; she hasn't enhanced any of her attributes yet. Letting her lure monsters alone would only make her a useless snack.

"Hold on tight."

Kiyono Makoto stretched his hands behind him and supported the girl's delicate, silky thighs.

"Hmm~"

Eriri's voice trembled slightly, her tone shy:

"You idiot, Seino... don't touch me like that!"

"If you don't touch it, you'll fall."

While making sarcastic remarks, Kiyono Makoto followed his memory and quickly rushed into the fog.

A moment later.

A sea of ​​blood-red spider lilies appeared before the two of them. The air was filled with a strange odor that smelled like flowers but also carried a faint stench. In short, it was extremely unpleasant.

"Eri, quickly think of a solution using your purple mood!"

Makoto Kiyono stopped at the edge of the flower field.

"Ugh, this is something taken from a comic book, it has nothing to do with me!"

Eriri responded with embarrassment and annoyance, while quickly opening her backpack, taking out the Purple Mood, and turning it on.

Buzzing.

A vibration and noise immediately rang out.

"Give."

Eriri blushed slightly, as if her hands were burning, and quickly transferred her purple mood to the crow on her shoulder.

The chibi-style crow grabs the prop with both hands, spreads its wings, and, under Eriri's command, rushes into a wooden house beside a sea of ​​flowers.

A few seconds later, a furious roar suddenly rang out.

With a roar and heavy footsteps, the earth seemed to tremble slightly, and then a ferocious monster more than two meters tall, covered with spider lilies and rotting flesh, charged in.

"Eri, guide me."

Kiyono Makoto quickly gave the order.

"......good."

Eriri held her breath nervously, having already taken out the sacrifice doll. Seeing the giant of the spider lily lured out, she quickly asked the doll a question:

"...Where is the archer who blocked the bridge?"

The doll subtly turned its arm in response.

"Qingye!"

Eriri wrapped her right arm around Kiyono Makoto's neck, and held a doll in her left hand, presenting it to him.

"We've found the right direction!"

"receive."

Without saying a word, Kiyono Makoto carried Takumi on his back and began to lure monsters.

at the same time.

Eriri suddenly felt something was wrong with her body.

It wasn't out of fear or dread; although the ferocious giant monster chasing her from behind was indeed terrifying, Eriri actually felt quite safe clinging to Makoto Kiyono's back.

The thing that's not right is...

Why do I feel a chill?

As Kiyono Makoto started running, the chilly feeling suddenly became very noticeable, like... like that time in middle school when he overslept, was in a rush to get to class, and forgot to put on his winter clothes before leaving the house...

Click!

A flash of lightning suddenly struck her mind, causing Eriri to tense up instantly.

"No, really?"

"Is this a lie?"

"We've used sacrificial dolls before, but they were just ordinary clothes..."

Eriri quickly twisted her body to check her clothes.

The clothes were neatly arranged, but Eriri's expression grew increasingly ashamed and indignant.

"Damn it!"

"Why am I so unlucky?!"

Kiyono Makoto noticed the girl on his back moving around restlessly, and while trying to distract her, he asked:

Why are you suddenly twisting and turning?

"I......"

Eriri parted her pink lips, her fair and delicate face now flushed crimson, almost as if it were about to bleed. The words she was about to say, however, she swallowed back.

"I'm fine... I'm just a little itchy..."

Tell Kiyono Makoto to stop, and then change your underwear yourself?

no.

You can't say anything.

The monster was only twenty or thirty meters behind us. If we stopped, we'd be crushed instantly!

Eriri had no choice but to bite her lower lip tightly and silently endure the humiliation.

"Hold on, don't panic... As long as you don't say anything, no one will find out..."

After a thrilling chase, Kiyono Makoto, carrying Takumi on his back, successfully lured the spider lily monster back to the location where they had been ambushed.

"Junior, sir."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes lit up, and she quickly waved from the corner.

Kiyono Makoto glanced over, nodded slightly, and before he could go over to greet him, he slipped and quickly dodged to the side.

A few seconds later.

A round, plump crow, clutching a purple mood, buzzed and flew past, while the spider lily monster roared in pursuit, whistling past Kiyono Makoto and Eriri.

With Takumi on his back, Kiyono Makoto followed behind the spider lily monster and began to advance.

"Let's go."

Rio Futaba spoke calmly:
