Chapter 762: Chapter 741 ( Great Haltina Labyrinth - VIII )
"A princess?" - Kaori said in surprise as she watched Shizuku duck her gaze in embarrassment.
"Yes..." - Shizuku muttered with a face red with embarrassment. Her dream was simple, she always wished to be a fairytale princess, that's why she couldn't contain her happiness after Cloud gave her the [Princess Set], that's why the illusion she was trapped in felt so real to her.
"I understand, umu" - Tio nodded calmly as she started to think - "Though I'm surprised you didn't do the same thing we did, try to hoard Cloud for yourself."
"It's because I know that will never happen" - Shizuku replied as she shook her head - "If that were the case, none of us would be here"
"You have a point..." - Remia said while stroking her daughter's hair - "Now we just have to wait for Cloud to come back to continue our journey, although it's a relief that we all managed to pass the test."
"Girls, I found my way to the next floor" - Cloud exclaimed in the distance.
"I guess that's our cue for us to continue" - sighed Kaori as she shook her head - "At least we're all together now."
"True, though I hope we don't have to go through another similar ordeal" - muttered Shizuku as she shook her head.
The group advanced to where Cloud was, and they saw a new seal engraved on the ground.
"I have a bad feeling about this, like whatever's behind this thing is something we're better off not seeing" - Kaori said as she felt a cold sweat run down her back.
"I don't think it's any worse than everything we've been through, especially the part where we transformed into monsters or animals" - replied Tio as she snorted in annoyance.
"I don't know what you're complaining about, you seemed to enjoy it" - Cloud said as he gave her a blank look.
* * * * *
"I knew it!" - Kaori shouted in terror as she watched a black creature approach while making a hissing noise.
Yue was silent, unable to say a word, while Remia had a forced smile on her face.
Tio was as if without showing a change in her expression, but if one were to look closer, one could notice how he was trembling.
"Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck!" - Shea shouted as her whole body trembled from the disgust she felt at the creatures that were running against them.
Shizuku had a cold smile on her face as her eyes glittered with mischief, as if she had met the ultimate enemy of her life.
Cloud for his part, was giving the girls a blank stare after he had incinerated this entire section of the forest after a strange white slime tried to ambush him. He had originally intended to devour the slime because the creature had the ability to dissolve mana, which would make its assimilation speed much faster, but the girls stopped him because the scene was something they didn't want to see because of the strange sexual connotation.
That left us with the current situation, the group was in a bare field, being besieged by a group of black monsters with long antennae.
"G-chan?" - Myu said as she cocked her head to the side.
"Yes, Myu, G-chan (Gokiburi: Cockroach)" - Cloud answered while nodding.
"Don't you feel disgust or repulsion for that creature?" - Remia asked while trying to keep her composure.
"It's a simple insect" - answered Cloud as he pulled out the gun and eliminated a few giant cockroaches, which quickly started to dissolve - "Although that doesn't mean I'm going to come in contact with them..."
"What kind of bullets did you use, dad?" - Myu asked as she pulled out her gun.
"Oh, they're not made of mana, but more were synthesized with the white slime liquid" - Cloud replied as he waved his hands and the girls watched as the white slime liquid seemed to concentrate into some sort of cores that were quickly molded into magical bullets - "Cockroaches are horribly resistant, so I wouldn't be surprised if these monsters were resistant to magic, that's why I decided to create bullets with the corrosive slime liquid."
"When was it that you created those bullets?" - Shea asked in surprise.
"While they were shocked by the appearance of those things" - Cloud answered while shrugging his shoulders.
"Wait, there's something weird about all this" - said Kaori as she looked at her best friend - "Why are you acting so hostile, Shizuku-chan?"
But to her surprise, Shizuku didn't answer her questions.
"Shizuku-chan?" - Kaori said as she moved her friend's body, noticing how she was frozen - "Shizuku-chan!"
"I think she's unconscious" - replied Shea as she saw how the black haired girl wasn't responding - "Wow, she's worse than us."
"If I remember correctly, she had a bad experience with those things, it was during our second year of elementary school" - Cloud replied as he continued to watch how the cockroaches were starting to gather - "Some idiot brought a bag full of dead cockroaches and threw them into the girls' bathroom"
"Did you see what happened!" - Kaori exclaimed with a pale face.
"Yes, although when I saw, it was already too late" - replied Cloud while shaking his head - "Quick summary, Shizuku was the "lucky" one received the cockroach bath while the pranksters were expelled from the school!"
"What a cruel fate" - muttered Tio, who despite not being afraid of these creatures, had an instinctive disgust for them.
"Shizuku-chan had to go to therapy for a year after that, that's why I was surprised to see her acting so fierce, now I see that was a way to hide her fear" - sighed Kaori as she used a spell on her friend in order to relax her body - "Do you think you can kill all those things?"
"I don't have enough bullets" - Cloud replied as he shook his head - "Though I think this is a good time to cast some spells or take normal shots"
Cloud quickly held out his hand as he concentrated a huge amount of fire mana - "Inferno!"
The cockroaches began to scream as they were consumed by the powerful flames, and to the group's surprise, they died extremely easily.
"That was anticlimactic..." - Cloud muttered as his expression changed to one of terror when he saw everything around him being covered by a powerful white light.
"What was that?" - Remia asked as she looked around in surprise, though she quickly began to feel an enormous amount of disgust for all the people around her - ". . ."
"What's wrong, Remia-san?" - Shea asked, though she too began to feel a growing rage.
Cloud noticed this as he tried to calm his emotions.
"Cloud..." - Yue growled as she narrowed her eyes - "That light reversed our feelings for each other..."
"I know" - Cloud replied as he took a long breath. He quickly looked around and saw a strange, huge red cockroach that seemed to be the leader of the "pack".
"Don't you feel any different?" - Yue asked angrily because this was strange, after all, it would be normal for Cloud to be disgusted by them.
"I have the ability to resist abilities that affect my mind" - Cloud replied as he took a long breath - "I can also control my emotions well..."
Yue narrowed her eyes before holding out her hands.
Cloud noticed this so he quickly snapped his fingers, creating some sort of chains that trapped the girls - "I'm going to finish this.
The cockroaches jumped against Cloud when they saw how he stepped out of the barrier, only to collide with a wall of fire that immediately consumed them.
"Kichaaaaaaaaa!" - the cockroaches began to shriek at the sight of so many of their sisters being wiped out, but they didn't take another step even when their leader seemed to be ordering them to do so.
"It's good to see that the survival instinct is greater than your leader's control" - Cloud said with a huge grin as he continued to create a powerful heat wave with him as the central core.
The red cockroach let out a squeak of annoyance before jumping up next to his "bodyguards".
Cloud narrowed his eyes before disappearing and appearing above the cockroaches, to quickly prepare to launch a powerful elemental breath, though his expression changed as he saw a huge silhouette appear above him.
"Die!" - Tio roared in her dragon form as she attacked fiercely.
Cloud quickly moved from the spot and watched as the breath struck the huge insects, narrowly almost hitting the cockroach leader as well.
Cloud could feel the deep hatred Tio felt for him, and the trouble didn't end there, in fact things were much worse after seeing how the other girls were also looking at him with a hatred that could freeze even the bravest man.
"I didn't think their love was so great that their hatred with the cockroach attack was so deep..." - Cloud muttered as he wiped away the sweat, mostly because he could feel the killer instinct of even little Myu-chan's.

"This will be interesting ~"
"There are times when I think your sense of humor is much worse than Meiru's..." - Belta said after hearing her former colleague's explanation.
