I see that sometimes.

A clothes-shredding trap that triggers the instant our party goes all-female? What an erotic dungeon this is.

If this is the dungeon master's doing, I feel like we'd get along swimmingly.

"At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if clothes-dissolving slimes showed up next."

"Ah, I see those sometimes, nya. There are even garbage disposal slimes trained not to eat living things."

"Wait, those actually exist?"

Anyway, we have no choice but to press on… Actually, hold that thought.

"What do you think is at the bottom of this pit trap?"

"Eh, well… a garbage dump, maybe?"

"It's a pit designed to strip away clothes and equipment while keeping intruders alive."

"Ah. Now that you mention it, that sounds like it'd lead to a jail cell nya!"

Exactly. Meaning there's some kind of space down there. Rather than following the route normally, we might be able to shortcut deeper in.

Sure, it probably leads to a jail cell, but all we need to do is bring our equipment through without it getting shredded. Let me set a pointer so I can teleport back here just in case.

"Alright. I'll stash all my clothes in storage for a sec and dive through."

"Eh, no, just teleport past the net, nya. Even if you say flesh is fine, diving through that is terrifying, nya."

… True. That is both faster and safer.

"The title of wise general isn't just for show, huh, Misha."

"Karina's a dummy so it can't be helped nyaa."

"You do realize I'm the only thing keeping you from plummeting headfirst right now, right?"

"Whatever, if we're going then hurry it up nya. We don't have much time, right?"

And so, I teleported with Misha to see what awaited us at the bottom of the pit trap.

Just as expected, it was set up like a jail cell. Cushions were arranged at an angle to catch falling victims safely. The lizardman we'd dropped earlier was lying limply inside.

"Now that I think about it, I could've just shot a pointer into that lizardman and teleported down after dropping it. Would've saved time and been safer."

"For Karina, getting back takes an instant anyway so it's the same nya?"

"Fair point. So then—"

I turned my gaze to the blonde woman with crimson eyes standing before the cell.

Hmm, a beauty indeed. Blonde ponytail, white lab coat, doing that whole glasses-adjustment thing.

… Honestly? Very much my type. I'd really love to have a taste before handing her over to the Goddess as a sacrifice. Then again, if I pulled something like that, I'd probably get hit with divine punishment for acting without permission.

"So you're the one going around calling yourself that ridiculous name, True Chaos God?"

"And you're a demon's servant, am I right?"

"Eh? Ah, umm? That's… a good question…?"

Being asked in return put me in a tight spot.

After all, to Alchemia… well, the former Alchemia… I'm nothing short of a god of destruction.

Even if you called that Goddess a demon, I couldn't exactly disagree. I have no choice but to dodge the question…!
