Chapter 69: The Troublesome Adventure of the Little Pigs
[After mistakenly eating the Greek witch's barley porridge and turning into pig, you encountered a wild Kotomine Kirei who was also turned into a wild boar.]
[If you don't quickly find a way to break the curse, you might get caught by the group of chefs.]
[Or face an even more terrifying fate.]
The basement library of Chaldea Academy.
Three pigs carefully stepped out of the library door, led by Artoria, the most reckless wild boar of them all.
"Area confirmed safe!"
Artoria shouted,
"Eikou-san, what should we do next?"
"Don't walk so fast, we should be more discreet. What if we really get caught?" pig Eikou advised.
"I agree too, it's better to be cautious." — demon boar Kotomine Kirei spoke with the tone of an adult.
"No, I want to get rid of this wild boar form as soon as possible,"
Artoria shook her head,
"You guys are different. One of you is a cute and lovable little pig, and the other is a majestic and intimidating demon boar, so you're not in a hurry to turn back. But I don't want to be a wild boar for even one more second!"
"What's wrong with being a wild boar? Dimitri has been called a 'mountain pig' for years and never complained."
"Who the hell is Dimitri!?"
Artoria roared.
Eikou thought to himself, this girl must really hate being a wild boar…
Even so, he personally felt quite optimistic — even if they turned into animals, this was still a new and fresh experience.
As long as they found the right Servant, they could definitely return to their human forms.
But clearly, Artoria didn't like being seen as a wild boar.
Eikou thought that in this case, he should tell her one or two jokes to cheer her up a little.
"In this situation, I just happen to have a line I really want to say. You two stop for a second and listen to me for a bit…"
"What line?"
Kotomine Kirei and Artoria both turned to look at him.
"Look at me, I have something to declare!"
Eikou jumped onto the step, looked at his two kindred, and solemnly declared:
"I am Pigman!"
Artoria: "..."
Kotomine Kirei: "..."
"..."
The atmosphere instantly turned awkward.
Eikou couldn't help but blush in embarrassment.
"Say something, damn it!" — he yelled with a bright red face — "Not saying anything is making me even more embarrassed!"
"Sorry… I've never really played with people my age, most of the time it's just me alone, so I don't really get a lot of jokes…" Artoria said regretfully.
Kotomine Kirei followed up: "My apologies, I'm a person lacking empathy to a certain extent, with emotional deficiencies… so I actually don't understand the joys and sorrows of others…"
Please, don't go setting up tragic backstories to save the mood like this! Just say the joke wasn't funny, what's so hard about that!
"All right, enough joking around!"
Eikou, still embarrassed, quickly changed the subject:
"Let's hurry and find a Servant to ask for help. Priority should be students from the Japan Class and Greek Class — the former might have Servants with Animal Communication skills, and the latter might know how to break the curse of the Greek witch."
"I see, Eikou-san, you're really smart." Artoria praised.
"Just decent, but we need to be careful with certain Servants. The chefs are a no-go — they'll catch pigs the moment they see them. And there's also Proto-Saber, the infamous pig butcher, we must stay far away from him. Besides, we also need to watch out—"
Before he could finish, Eikou suddenly felt a sharp gaze coming from behind.
In that instant, all three pigs simultaneously felt an overwhelming pressure that froze their bodies — as if they had just come face-to-face with a predator at the top of the food chain, a fear that pierced deep into their bones.
Eikou and his two kindred instantly went cold all over.
This is bad — I told the joke too loudly earlier, someone overheard us!
All three turned around at the same time to look toward the approaching figure.
Due to the low line of sight of a pig, Eikou at first only saw a pair of purple high heels, along with long, shapely legs wrapped in black stockings.
Then, when he raised his head a little — what appeared before him was a seductive secretary in a tight-fitting uniform.
The girl had long, wavy pink hair. Her thin, loose uniform was held together by only two buttons, barely 'resisting' her voluptuous chest.
Even though her shirt was buttoned, the hazy cleavage alone was enough to spark infinite imagination; her slim waist, the wide neckline revealing snow-white skin — just looking was enough to make blood rush to one's face.
No doubt about it — this was the very image of a "sexy secretary."
And that person was none other than — Secretary Tamamo, also known as Koyanskaya!
All three pigs trembled inside at the same time.
Oh my god, that was truly the aura of a Beast, a dangerously powerful Super S!
And she appeared at the exact time when all of them were turned into pigs — the weakest moment in history!
Eikou instantly broke into a cold sweat — this fox secretary was more terrifying than ten billion murderers combined!
"Gyaa! It's Beast! Everyone, retreat!!"
Eikou screamed to the others to run, then turned around to run himself!
However, before Eikou could take more than a few steps, he was grabbed by the collar and lifted into the air by a pair of slender gloved hands.
He shut his eyes tightly in despair, his life flashing before his eyes like a montage.
It's over, he thought — this time I'm done for.
"Got you~♡!"
But the terrifying scene he imagined didn't happen.Koyanskaya only let out a gleeful cry, then pulled him into a loving embrace.
Her soft lips rained kisses on his head.
"Eh…?"
By the time Eikou regained his senses, his face was already buried deep between her soft, snow-white, voluptuous breasts.
"What an adorable little piggy! So innocent, so easy to bully, and so stupid too~ That tiny patch of blue hair on top is the perfect highlight of cuteness! Did this little one grow up eating 'adorable' as food? Oh my god, I can't handle this~♡ Let me touch your fur a little, okay?"
Koyanskaya spoke while hugging Eikou even tighter.
Eikou's heart skipped a beat.
Damn it… I've run into a Beast who loves animals, especially small, cute ones!
Is this good news or bad news…
"You guys… run! Don't worry about me! I'll stay behind to find a way to hold her off!" Eikou blushed as he spoke, his face still tightly squeezed in the soft embrace of the secretary's chest.
"Don't give me that! You're obviously enjoying that hug!!" Artoria shouted angrily, "Even after turning into a pig, you still can't hide your charm, huh!? I knew it, pink pigs are always cuter than wild boars!!"
"Umm…"
Koyanskaya tilted her head slightly, her golden eyes glowing with seductive allure as she stared at Eikou:
"Would you like to come with me~? From now on, live in my Koyanskaya Paradise. For such an adorable creature like you, I guarantee you'll live a life more luxurious than a human emperor's~♡"
What the hell is this!?
Why am I being seduced by some mysterious big sister even after being turned into a pig!?
Eikou screamed in his heart.
Damn it, I absolutely can't fall for this kind of seduction…!
"Can I rub your belly a little? Pretty please~?" Koyanskaya asked with a hopeful tone.
"W-wait! That… that's not a place you can just casually touch! Don't touch me—Kyaa~"
Eikou's face turned bright red like a boiled shrimp.
"Hey, hey! What kind of situation is this!? It's getting weirder by the second!?" Artoria yelled.
Kotomine Kirei only muttered a short sentence: "Women… haizz… Beast."
No, if this keeps going, Eikou will be completely swallowed up by her charm, dragged away in that half-resistant, half-accepting state.
So this is the Beast from the legends, this terrifying!?
They had to break this situation immediately.
Without thinking further, Artoria raised her hooves and charged straight at Koyanskaya.
Charging straight like a wild boar!
