Behemoth's Pet

Chapter 82: Clenched Fists And Sandwiched Cat

「Lily-chan, Faeri-chan, both of you’re amazing!」

「We’re serious nyaa! You girls were the one we needed the most right nyaow!」

Vulcan and Aria praised Lily and Faeri, both puffed out their ch t pridefully.

「Fufu~, I’m really happy being praised like that by Aria and co.」

「W’re really happy we can be of use for you guys~!」

Lily and Faeri were smiling delightfully with a flushed red face as they got praised like that.

They both felt indebted to Aria and co after the Gladdstone incident.

Thus, they were really happy to know they could help Aria and co in combat

（Now is our tu-!）

While Vulcan and Aria were still dazed by Lily and Faeri’s prowess, Stella’s eyes were sparkling.

She went straight to hug Tama from behind.

「Nyaa~!?」

Tama who was suddenly lifted up like that let out a loud yet adorable cry.

When he tried to somehow slip out of Stella’s hug, she plugged him into her melons’ valley.

Tama was desperately trying to get out of there but, his kitten level strength was no match against the dragon incarnate Stella.

「Stella-chan! Why are you hugging Tama on your own!」

Tama’s cry made Aria snapped out of her daze.

When she approached Stella to take Tama away…

「Uuh… Do you really hate me that much… Tama?」

Stella said with a trembling voice.

It was as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment.

（M-Muu… Crying girls are just…）

For a proud knight, a girl’s tears were Tama greatest weakness.

「N-Nya?……」

Thus, he weakly purred as he nested himself into Stella’s twin melonss sandwich.

Stella grinned broadly after seeing Tama’s reaction.

「T-Tama!? Mu~h! Unforgiveable… Stella-chan, how dare you to take advantage of Tama’s weakness!」

Seeing Tama’s condition and Stella’s grin, Aria came to the realization that Stella’s tears were crocodile tears.

She approached Stella, feeling angry after watching her knight(Pet) being deceived by Stella’s crocodile tears.

MUNYU~N!

Another pair of melons pressed against the one Tama was nesting in. They were Aria’s’s.

It was a “Kaijuu” level twin melons sandwich battle.

Although all she had to do was take Tama back from Stella’s hands, it seemed like Aria intended to make Tama come out of his own will.

Thus, a twin melons sandwich battle to decide who was Tama’s most appropriate partner started to unfold inside of the labyrinth.

「Nya~~~~~!?」

The cat himself was attacked by dizzy spells as its body was being sandwiched by soft and fluffy melons. Coming from both side, the nice fragrance produced by both girls came to assault his nose.

（C-Crying Stella from the back! Pouting master from the front! S-Someone please tell me what I should do!?）

As a knight, he couldn’t make a girl cry.

And yet, his master was now pouting when he tried to coax one not to cry.

Tama knight soul’s raison d’etre was torn between the two of them.

「Wa~i! It’s the great oppai sandwich battle!」

Maybe because Lily found that the scene of Tama being sandwiched by Aria and Stella’s melons was interesting, she wanted to make the situation even merrier and jumped to join the battle. But on for the victim side…

「A~h! So sly~! Let me in too~!」

Faeri who saw the situation started to circle around Aria and Stella while shouting 「Me too! Me too!.

「Stella-chan, remember your promise about hugging Tama. It’s only when you have my permission!」

「Humph, Aria, you just arbitrarily decided that on you own! I mean, just last night, I was strolling around the street while hugging Tama! And he didn’t show any resistance at all!」

「W-What did you say!?」

Stella’s reply hit Aria like a giant sledgehammer.

Aria’s eyes opened wide as she stared straight at Stella’s face.

And then… Her cold, piercing gaze moved onto Tama.

（Y-You’re mistaken, master! I mean, Stella looked like she was about to cry last nig—! Damn it, I hate the fact that I can’t talk at times like this!）

Tama was cursing about the fact that he couldn’t speak to explain himself the situation.

However, he still shook his head to convey his meaning to his master, Aria.

「Well… I’m sure it wasn’t because Stella-chan seduced Tama. Let me guess, you were faking your tears what you’re doing right now, right?」

Aria understood the situation as soon as she saw Tama’s gesture.

「GEH, NANODA!」

Stella ended up wincing when she heard Aria’s deduction.

（What!? Stella, you little- so those tears were just crocodile tears!?）

Tama immediately noticed when he saw Stella’s reaction.

「Uwa~~! Don’t ignore me pwease~~~!」

In the midst of this strange conflict, Faeri who was completely ignored by both parties from the beginning was the one who really cried.

「Awawawa! Don’t cry, Faeri~!」

Lily then leapt out from Aria-Stella’s twin melonss sandwich to pacify her best friend. (ED: She actually managed to get in there?)[Note : Lily is Palm Sized Fairy after all]

There was a kitten who was caught in between Kaijuu-class twin melons battle between a dragon girl and an elf girl, a pixie who leapt out of said battle and started pacifying her crying best friend… It was truly a chaotic situation to witness.

It was during that time…

「N-Nya~~~~! Please stop frolicking like it’s nothing! We are inside of the labyrinth nyaaan!」

Though Vulcan didn’t catch the sign of any incoming monster, she finally snapped after being left out like that.

◆

「Fue~… We angered Vulcan-san…」

「Why is this happening…」

Both Aria and Stella’s cries echoed through the labyrinth

They were sobbing sadly, one could see a huge bump on their head.

Since they ended up making too much noise in the labyrinth, Vulcan knocked on both of their head with her fists of fury.

Both Aria and Stella were crying when they witnessed the normally gentle Vulcan became something akin to a fierce god.

Though both girls were just reaping what they sew for making too much noise inside of a dangerous labyrinth.

「Fa!… Tama-chan is so cu~te?」

Behind the crying girls was the figure of Faeri frolicking with Tama.

Tama’s kitten size body was a perfect fit to be inserted in between Faeri’s twin melonss.

Sandwiched alongside Tama was none other than Lily who was muttering 「Being hugged like this while fluffing Tama is za beeesht~」 with an enraptured voice.

「Tama’s peaceful face is so moe-nya~n? Let me hug him later, Faeri-nyan!」

「But of cou~rse~, Vulcan-sa~n!」

Vulcan who saw Tama peaceful face after being released from the hell called 〝Sandwiched Cat? ended up wanted to hug him too.

As expected of Vulcan.

She didn’t let her guard down even while she was looking at the adorable Tama.

Though her rank was below Aria’s due to the event in Gladdstone, she displayed the wisdom of a veteran adventurer during this kind of time.

「「Mu??……」」

Both Stella and Aria who were previously competing for Tama could only watch that scene with a grumpy look on their face.
