Did You Know That a Playboy Can Change His Job to a Sage? Chapter 6
The Playboy Recalls a Bitter Memory
The Heavenly Tower of Babel.
Weâre still stuck wandering around on the second floor.
âWe really shouldâve been up on the third floor by now, butâŠâ
âWe canât find it, huh~?â
Truth is, the inside of this tower changes forms quite regularly.
So, the stairs change position as well. Even if you cleared the floor once already, itâs basically completely different the next time you get there.
Itâs a pain, but it does keep things fresh.
Tina and I walk side by side.
Since sheâs a tank, she really should be out in front.
But since weâre still just on the second floor, not to mention my higher stats, this is fine for now.
Honestly, Iâll probably be the one walking in front of Tina soon.
Not that I know how long Iâll be partied up with this girl.
When I looked at her beside me, I caught her eyes and received a big smile.
â(Smile)!â
âWas there something you wanted to say?â
Tinaâs eyes seemed to dart towards my equipment.
âDylan-san, youâre still wearing your tuxedo? Arenât you going to change since youâre a sage now?â
âAh. This tuxedo is actually really high-class gear, despite how it looks. Itâs tougher than your armour.â
âEhh!? Even though it looks so weak!?â
âWant to touch it?â
âBut⊠It just feels normalâŠ?â
âThen, want to try hitting it with a sword?â
âFuaaah!? N-no, I canât do something like that Dylan-san!â
âI donât mind. Wanna do it?â
âO-okay, I got it.â
Tina drew her longsword.
âThen, please excuse meâŠâ
She poked at my clothes with her sword.
âYouâre not really going to see it like that⊠Come on, really get in there.â
âIs that really okay!? Really!?â
âItâs fine. Even if you managed to wound me, I have potions and weâre close to the clinic on the first floor.â
âOkay⊠If youâre saying I should go that far⊠Ei!â
Tina thrust the sword hard. It might have actually been enough to kill a goblin, that stab.
But, Iâm fine.
âNo way!?â
âSee? Canât cut it, can you?â
Tina pulled up my shirt without permission and inspected it for herself.
âItâs trueeeeeeeee!!â
âThereâs some armour involved, but the biggest deal is âBlessing of the Godsâ.â
âThe gods are great!â
âI want to say I found it in a chest on the⊠78th floor?â
â78th floor!!?? Thatâs amazing! The gods are great, but Dylan-san is as weeeeeeeeeell!â
Tina excitedly jumps up and down while she still holds onto my shirt. Itâs chilly.
âIf youâve got it, letâs get going. My stomach is getting cold.â
âAhâŠâ
Tinaâs face seems to betray that she just noticed what she was actually doing.
Then, she stared at my muscles.
ââŠâ
Her face slowly turned red, then she let go of the shirt and looked at the ground, twirling her fingers in her hands.
âUm⊠SorryâŠâ
âN-no, itâs nothing.â
ââŠâŠ.(Twirl twirl).â
I said, donât worry about it.
If she gets that embarrassed, itâs gonna rub off on me as well⊠Iâm a jester so Iâm used to people seeing me in the nude, but this is a littleâŠ
Tinaâs reaction is too innocent, I donât know what to doâŠ
âLetâs go.â
âYe⊠YeshâŠ!â
Her voice sounds a little weird. So pure-hearted.
Jeez. I sighed.
When I was in a party that managed to stand before the Almighty King, I received confessions from the three girls in the party ăŒ that is, every member of the party ăŒ at the same time and things got really messy.
Inevitably the party had to break up. It was pretty bad.
Partycrusher, Playboy, all sorts of pretty bad rumours got going about me after that.
Those girls back then were just as innocent as she is.
Tina is still walking next to me, her red face focused on the ground.
ââŠHey, you okay?â
âEhh!? W-what do you mean!?â
âYou donât have to say youâre fine if youâre not, you know.â
âI-Iâm not faking anything!? J-j-j-just seeing a manâs stomach isnât enough to get me all worked up!?â
It totally is. It totally is enough.
âYou know, thereâs a lot of adventurers who barely wear anything at all. If you get all embarrassed about this, youâre going to have a tough time.â
âT-thatâs trueâŠ! Itâs just⊠If itâs other people I donât really mind, but whenâŠâ
âOh, a goblin.â
âOraaaaaaaaaah!!â
âGigyaaah!?â
We ran into a goblin in the middle of whatever it was Tina was saying. Tina seemed to be pretty pissed off about being interrupted and really went all out on that poor goblin.
With her shield, she ground it into the wall. Ehh⊠Isnât that a bit muchâŠ
âI donât mind if itâs other people, but when itâs Dylan-san IâŠâ
âOh, another Goblin.â
âDieeeeeeee!!â
âGogyooooh!?â
Tina stabbed straight through the goblinâs neck with the point of her shield.
Eh⊠Is this really fine�
Iâm a little worried now.
âFu⊠That surprised me⊠Iâve still got a lot to learn if I keep getting surprised by goblinsâŠâ
Tina took deep breaths as she held her chest.
I pretended not to notice her tits bounce up and down with every deep breath she took. They look soft.
Even though tanks are supposed to be such hard and sturdy guys, she looks softer than anyone.
Tina sees me watching her and smiles.
âIâm all better!â
âO-oh, is that so.â
Does she even need that longsword? Is what I wanted to say.
Iâm so happy!
Iâm really glad!
Iâm super excited!
With such happiness I, Tina, walked!
When I saw Dylan-san perform back in town, I felt an electric shock run through my body!
Love at first sight! Fate! I canât be wrong! My whole body froze up when I saw him!
Later on, some weird guys gave me some bad medicine and I couldnât move! It was a big pinch! But since Dylan-san saved me! Because of my luck! Maybe!
Now Dylan-san is next to me! Weâre going to go to the top of the tower together!
Itâs amazing!
Ah, I want this to last foreverâŠ!
I thought about that when I walked next to Dylan-sanââ
âItâs strangeâŠâ
âItâs really weird!â
No matter how long we searched, we couldnât find the stairs!â
Whatâs worse, the stairs to the first floor were gone as well!
Itâs really weird!
But, Iâm still happy!
âEven though itâs so strangeâŠâ
âWhatâs wrong!?â
âWhy do you look like youâre having so much fun?â
âAhahaăŒ! I donât know what youâre talking aboutăŒ!? Itâs all just your imaginationăŒ!â
One hour later.
Weâre still on the second floor.
âThis is really weird!â
âIt is pretty strange, huhâŠ?â
As we said that, I thought to myself âmaybe it would be best if this didnât last foreverâ.
