Let's Play Monmusu Quest: Paradox [part 2] - 14: Yamata no Orochi Caves

<- Previous: Yamatai Village

Working out the blogpost breaks for the Yamatai Village quests is a bit awkward for reasons that will become apparent.  I did think about giving the village and shrines separate posts, but there isn’t enough happening in Yamatai Village on its own and the village + shrines is too big for a single post.  And then there’s that back-and-forth into the Yamata no Orochi Caves (which I think is the right name for this location).

Anyway, we’ve satisfied the Cat and Fox shrine quests.  Now it’s time for the Raccoon Shrine quest, which involves going into the Yamata no Orochi caves to find the Raccoon God.

And not fight Yamata no Orochi.  Alice is absolutely insistent on this.  She tells us Yamata no Orochi is a very powerful demon.  I think the game is trying to subtly hint that Yamata no Orochi is a challenge boss along similar lines to Sphinx in part 1 (and Leviathan earlier).

Paradox makes use of the MGQ Chapter 3 Yamatai monster girls to populate the caves.  This means appearances for the Miko Lamia and Kejourou.  There is one new monster girl – a Miko Arachne.

Dancing dancing spiders

She has a very annoying curse dance.  If you’re relying on magic attacks for damage, make sure to have Nullify Silence equipped, or you might end up like this:

She's a rare spider girl. She doesn't eat Luka afterwards.

To find the raccoon tanuki girl*, take the right fork on entering and walk into the big cavern behind the waterfall.

*Pedantic aside warning.  I wrote it as machine translated, but raccoon is not strictly accurate.  Japan doesn’t have racoons, it has raccoon dogs (tanuki), which while sharing a superficial resemblance to America’s lovable (unless you’re a pet owner) trash pandas, are a completely different animal.  They look like someone spliced a raccoon and badger together, and threw in a bit of fox for good measure.

Tanuki girl is cowering over on the left.

Quest objective for shrine #3

She asks not to be eaten.

Alice never passes up an opportunity to bully (sort of) fox girls

After some teasing from Alice about tanuki pots, we’re returned to the Tanuki Shrine.  That’s shrine #3 solved.

Oddly, you don’t seem to be able to recruit tanuki girl.  I tried talking to her afterwards without much luck, so I don’t know if she can be recruited.  Maybe she’s exclusive to players on the Ilias route?  Maybe you’re supposed to recruit her later?

I don’t know to be honest.  If she is recruitable and you know how, post in the comments below (but please avoid spoilers if it involves waiting for a later event to unlock her).

Last shrine is the snake shrine, and I’m guessing this is where we’re going to have to do some fighty stuff.  The snake shrine is in revolt, and it’s as suspected.  The good white shirohebi sister confirms on the bridge—her more rebellious twin has been corrupted by Black Alice and is raising an army.

Was raising an army.

While speaking to Good Shirohebi there’s a loud crash from the main shrine building behind her.  On entering it we find a lot of bashed up monster girls.  Nobody is dead, but they aren’t in any state to fight.  On the second floor we find the reason for all this, and it’s not much of a surprise.  Neris (Alice 17th) has been beating up all the monster girl queens Black Alice recruited and it’s Evil Shirohebi’s turn.

Neris getting involved again

Or would be Evil Shirohebi’s turn.  For some reason we picked the wrong time to show up as Neris scarpers leaving us to fight Evil Shirohebi instead.

Boss fight!

Now don’t get tempted there Luka-clone.

They're fighting... I think

Shirohebi is a lamia, so blast her with ice magic effects and all will be fine.  This is a repeat boss fight from the original series, which might also explain why Neris ran off.  “Classic” Luka fought Evil Shirohebi at some point in his adventures so it might as well be here, or something like that.  I still don’t know what’s going on.

That’s enough to settle the issues of the 4th and final shrine.  If you go back to the village headman he’ll reward you with the Book of Eastern Secrets.  This unlocks the Samurai, Taoist and Ninja jobs.

It also triggers the beginning of a side quest.  Outside the main hut you’ll find a group of four young men.

You're going to have to find these four idiots at some point

They have a plan to see the world and... get fucked, basically.  The side quest is to find them after they’ve dispersed.  Three can be found right now, but the fourth buggered off to Succubus Village, which we haven’t reached yet.  I’ll come back to this side quest when we reach that location.

We’re still not done with Yamatai.  Evil Shirohebi can be recruited if you talk to her in the snake shrine.

Her good sister has to stay around and run things, but Evil Shirohebi is available (probably in more ways than one).  But first she requires we fetch her a Beckoning Cat item from the Yamata no Orochi caves.

This had me stumped for a while.  If you ask around the NPCs they’ll tell you rumours of a secret treasure cave in the Yamata no Orochi caves.  I didn’t find it on the first lookthrough and so assumed it was something that was unlocked later, maybe when your party has levelled up enough to defeat Yamata no Orochi.

This isn’t the case.  Enter the caves and this time take the left fork.  This leads to another waterfall area with chests.  While they might look unreachable, the first party member can hop across the short gaps.  It’s a variation on the classic top-down JRPG ice puzzles.  The Beckoning Cat isn’t here (the far chest is another boxed girl).

The thing I missed was this damn rope here.

Completely missed this rope the first time around

Climb down it and then walk to the right to enter the secret treasure area.

Walk through the waterfall to the right of the sign...

...to find the secret treasure cave

The Beckoning Cat can be found in here as well as a bunch of other treasure.  Now you can go back and recruit Evil Shirohebi.

And that’s all for Yamatai Village.  With both Caesar’s and Arthur’s side quests resolved, it’s time to hop back onto the main quest line and check out Mephisto’s school of magic for Queen Noah.

Wait, what about Yamata no Orochi?

Well you can find her here, in the cave north of where you find Tanuki Girl.

Warning: Yamata no Orochi, do not approach

But I wouldn’t recommend fighting her unless you have a serious fetish for tongues and licking that you absolutely have to satisfy right now.

Okay, okay.  But don’t say I didn’t warn you.

It's okay Luka.  She'll let you go in a year.

-> Next: Mephisto’s School of Magic

Let's Play Monmusu Quest: Paradox [part 2] - 13: Yamatai Village

<- The Road to Yamatai

We’ve arrived at Yamatai Village.  It’s time to enter walkthrough mode, and believe me, we’re going to need it here as I imagine this place was pretty damn confusing for anyone trying to play without translation.

Yamatai Village is pretty big.  These settlements seem to get bigger and bigger no matter how small and rustic they look on the map.  In the original series the problem here involved a sacrifice to Yamata no Orochi.  This time around the problem seems to be unrest around the sacred shrines.  There are four of them – Cat, Raccoon, Fox and Snake.

Before then there’s the usual bout of information gathering and stealing things out of pots.

The mysterious mountain leads to the elf village Yamatai has some kind of deal with.  It’s not possible to enter right now as it’s protected by a magic force.

The most important quest item we need to pick up here is the Eastern Book of Secrets.  That unlocks the Ninja, Samurai and Taoist jobs.  There are various other NPCs looking for that information.  Kappas are sumo wrestling with the young men, who don’t seem to be trying to win too hard.  There are more nods to Japanese folklore with a Yuki-onna that can only stay married so long as her husband doesn’t realise she’s a Yuki-onna (he seems oblivious enough that she doesn’t have anything to worry about).

Yamata no Orochi is still about and still requires a yearly sacrifice.  There aren’t any shortage of volunteers for this in Paradox world as they’ve figured out sacrifice means being licked to a state of extreme erotic bliss for a year and then coming back home.  Alice mentions Yamata no Orochi is very old and very tough, so I’m guessing she’s an optional boss along similar lines to Sphinx.

There are not one but two battlefuckers in Yamatai – Yayoi...

Likes swords

...and Satsuki.

Likes nipples

Unlike most of the other battlefuckers, they actually have proper H-scenes rather than random close-ups of whatever body part we happen to be rubbing our dingaling against at that particular moment.

As for actual plot, first we need to find and talk to the village headman.  He can be found in the main hut here:

Village head's hut

This is the NPC you need to talk to

He will then explain the problem with the shrines.  The snakes have gone militant and are building an army to conquer the village.  Alice thinks it’s the work of the other Shirohebi sister.  That sounds like it’s going to be a fight against a returning boss from the 3rd chapter of the original series.  The racoon god has gone missing.  They think this has put the fox god in a funk as she won’t talk to anyone.  The cat shrine has the opposite problem – so many cats they can’t work out who the real cat god is.

So there are our missions.  Time to head to the shrines.  This is a separate location reached by following the road north through the village and walking onto the next screen.

The base of the hill is fairly touristy.  The shop here sells various treats.  Ilias is here with her pitiful party and she and Alice bicker as usual.  The shrines are reached by walking up the steps by the north exit.  Thankfully there are shrine maiden NPCs located at each shrine and at the base of the mountain to shortcut walking up or down all those steps.

The first shrine is the cat shrine.  In the warehouse next to it you can recruit the last of the unfortunate quartet if you have one of them in your party when you talk to the Unfortunate Nekomata.  She(?) will also give you an item that unlocks the Nekomata race for beast girls.

A cat girl.  Nya nya.

The cat shrine problem is fairly easy to resolve.  Talk to the shrine maiden.  Then talk to each of the cats to find out which one is the cat god (it’s not, as I thought, the sleeping cat girl).  Then go back to the shrine maiden.  By this point you will have lost which cat girl it is, but it won’t matter because the shrine maiden wisely decides to go “fuck it” and pick any random cat girl to be cat god.  It’s not like anyone will notice any difference.

(although it might have been fun if the game randomly slipped a level 60 nekomata in as one of the encounters outside the village)

It was this one in my playthrough

Cat shrine done, time to move onto the Fox shrine.

I put the adorable kitsune pair, Kamuro and Kitsu, in my party to see if they had any additional dialogue when talking with the NPCs.  Other than cooing at the cute normal foxes wandering around outside they don’t.  Two new kitsune (which I imagine we’ll fight later at some point) are guarding the gate, but we’re allowed entry for now.

Nero is here and is getting mobbed by foxes.  I don’t know why to be honest.  Machine translation got a little lost here.  Fox tails decorating his clothing that the other foxes don’t like?  Answers below if you know, please.

Not really sure what the foxes are doing with Nero

I really shouldn’t be surprised by the identity of the fox god.  Who else is it going to be but Tamamo, and the real deal this time rather than an illusion.

Unhappy Tamamo

She is depressed about something.  I can’t tell what as Tamamo has always been a nightmare for machine translation.  I think it’s because she’s written to speak with an old-fashioned Japanese accent.  From what I can work out, the source of Tamamo’s unhappiness is Alice’s mother.  I don’t think Tamamo agrees with some of the orders she’s been given.  Whatever it is, she doesn’t want to speak with the player further.

However, this does count as resolving the problems with the Fox shrine.  Onto the Raccoon shrine.

Just outside the raccoon shrine is a group of rat girls.  They seem to be plotting some kind of coup over the fact they don’t have a shrine of their own, but I think they’re just background NPCs.

There’s nobody at the Raccoon shrine other than a crying Kitsune.  Talk to her and you find out she’s crying because she challenged the Raccoon God to go to the Yamata no Orochi caves and she never came back.

So it’s a rescue mission, and an excuse to visit those caves.

So off we go... next post.

(I was originally going to put all the shrine stuff here, but we’re already over 1,000 words.)

-> Next: Yamata no Orochi Caves

Let's Play Monmusu Quest: Paradox [part 2] - 12: The Road to Yamatai

<- Previous: Minotaurs’ Labyrinth

With Caesar’s quest complete, it’s time to head off to Yamatai Village to complete Arthur’s Quest.  First we have to get there.

The road from Finoa to Grand Noah splits in two at a signpost.  The right fork leads to a cave entrance.  On the other side of those tunnels is Yamatai.

These cave systems seem to get windier and more maze-like each time.  The route to Yamatai also has some cave rooms with treasure chests inside.  Look for the cave entrances that look like large cracks.

In the original series, the route to Yamatai was over some snow-covered mountains, where Luka was attacked by a Yuka-Onna snow spirit.  She can now be found in the tunnels to Yamatai, along with the ninja and samurai elves of the original series.

Kunoichi in Torotoro Resistance’s universe are non-supernatural humans or elves that have mastered ancient arts of pleasure to almost succubus levels.  She’ll kill you, but you’ll enjoy every minute of it.

The deadliest of ninja techniques...

The samurai has a filthy mind and loves a bit of tight anal, with the emphasis being on tight.

Samurai elves are very dirty girls

They were all present in the original series, so nothing new here.

What is new is the Nure-onna.

It's a lamia.  Is she like Miia from Monster Musume?

She’s a lamia type and can also be found in the caves on the way to the Minotaur Labyrinth.  She also knows a few filthy little tricks with her snakes, but be warned, she’s a man-eater.

I think this bit of 69 went wrong somewhere...

Literally.

No, I don't think she's like Miia from Monster Musume.  Helllpppp!

Lamia vaginas – just a little bit too flexible.  Don’t show her any mercy next time, Luka.

The nekomata we’ve been seeing as various NPCs throughout the game also finally show up as encounters in the woods and fields surrounding the village.

Yamatai seems to be based on Ye Olde Japanese fantasy, so most of the monsters in this area are sexy versions of traditional Youkai.  The Akaname, or long-tongue women, return from the original series.  New additions are the Futakuchi, or two-mouth girl...

Um, you appear to have something on the back of your head

...and Kappas.

Kappas, photobombed by a random cat girl

Kappas really like cucumbers for... reasons that are probably best not to ask.

Kappas also like sumo, including some holds that don’t seem legal or fair.

Foul hold!  Foul hold!

Her Bad End is to stick her fingers in our ass, rummage around until she finds our ‘ejaculation button’ and then press it until empty (and unconscious).  Pretty sure that move is definitely not legal in sumo.  It could be worse.  At least she’s not using that cucumber she’s always carrying around.

Kappa also has another scene you can request back at the castle.  It also involves prostate massage (she really likes sticking her fingers in our ass for some reason), but with sex as well.  I think.  This is another one of those pieces of art where I’m not entirely sure which way round Luka actually is.

Two-mouth women are spirits of women that were excessively greedy or gluttonous in their lives and are cursed to return with an insatiably hungry mouth in the back of their heads, if I remember my Japanese folklore correctly.  The futakuchi girls in Monmusu Quest: Paradox also have that perpetual hunger.  Every item drop is a food item.

Despite their uncontrollable hunger, vore is surprisingly absent from their Bad Ends.  Lose to one out in the woods and she’ll tie you up with her hair before letting that mouth on the back of her head suck out every drop of semen.

It's sort of a blow job... I guess...

I’m not sure what to make of it other than thinking there’s probably a really good horror story for Edward Lee somewhere.  Rednecks capture a mysterious Japanese girl to give her a header.  Messy castration ensues.  Fuck it, I’ll write it myself.  Except it will probably have to be British chavs.  I usually fuck up when I attempt to write in an ‘American’ voice (oh H-space, why did I have the US government discover you first).

Futakuchi also has a couple of other request scenes – a more conventional blowjob, frottage between her buttocks, and the same scene with full vaginal intercourse.  She’s also endearingly apologetic when she loses control of her second mouth and sucks out so much Luka is knocked out for a day.

But that’s enough fraternising with the locals.  The destination is Yamatai Village, which can be found here:

Yamatai Village

North of Yamatai is a white mountain and another visit-able location.  That leads to the elf village, but it’s impossible to reach at the moment as you’ll get teleported back to the start after taking a few steps.

East of Yamatai Village is another cave system.  I’m guessing that’s where Yamata-no-Orochi is hanging out.  We’ll check that dungeon out later.

Before then, it’s time to see what has Yamatai Village in uproar.

-> Next: Yamatai Village

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

Let's Play Monmusu Quest: Paradox [part 2] - 10: The Coliseum

<- Previous: Fossil Cave

The coliseum is a location accessed from Grand Noah.  Leave the city by the west road and you’ll go to the coliseum rather than exiting to the world map.  Some of the teams are excited about trying to win the Queen’s Cup.  One group of guards is excited about being beaten (and presumably fucked) by various monster girls (Both Alice and Sonya call them out as perverts).

Ilias is here with her little party of slime girl and dog girl.  Haven’t you even got around to recruiting a fourth party member yet, Ilias?

(I’m probably going to regret this somewhere down the line when she shows up with a party of elite angels.)

In the foyer there are two NPCs behind the desk.  The one on the right seems to be selling tickets for spectators.  If you try to do this Sonya and Alice will berate Luka for even considering it.  They probably have a point.  If the coliseum is anything like the one from the original series, the fights all end up in big sloppy sex shows.

The person you need to talk to is the girl on the left.  This will enter you into the Queen’s Cup tournament and after some text letting you know a couple of days have passed, you’ll be taken to a staging room within the coliseum.

How to enter the tournament

This is another locked-in quest in that you won’t be able to leave or warp away.  As with all locked-in quests, there is a book to enable us to re-organise the party, change jobs, etc.  There are even a few NPC vendors dotted around the room.

We come back to the action after Luka and friends have already progressed to the quarterfinals.  Ilias and crew are already out, having been defeated by the sea horse marine squad in the second round.

Toldya you should have recruited a 4th member.

Once all the preparations are complete, it’s time to exit the room at the top-left.  That takes us out into the coliseum and a first fight against Arthur the Dullahan.

Arthur has three dark elf flunkies for the player to fight first.  As none of them seem to have levelled up since leaving Enrika, fight is a generous description.  Arthur is a proper boss fight though.  She’s also not new.  ‘Classic’ Luka fought her back in Monster Girl Quest chapter 2 and I’m assuming it’s the same Bad End.

Next match is versus Caesar the Cerberus.  She also has an orc, grizzly and wolf girl squad as a warm-up fight.  They don’t appear to have levelled up either.  Caesar seemed a lot weaker than Arthur.  That sort of makes sense considering she’s number 2 to Arthur’s number 1.  But it’s probably more because she’s a beast girl, and they’re pathetically weak to pleasure attacks.

Mephisto puts in an appearance before the final.

She has no ulterior motive for forcing us through this tournament.  None at all...

Unsurprisingly, she reveals she has ulterior motives.  She wants Luka in the final in the hope a ‘certain’ person shows up.  I wonder how much Mephisto knows as this seems to be another attempt to force history follow the ‘correct’ path.

Is the game going to bait’n’switch us again.  Nope.  Our final opponent is...

The first heavenly knight has arrived

Alma Elma!

Finally, after a long wait, the heavenly knights have arrived.

Should you be tempted to... ahem... throw the fight, her Bad End is the same as the one from the coliseum in the original series.  She ties Luka up with her tail and wanks him off in front of the audience.

We lost.  What a shame.

After ‘beating’ her, Alice correctly points out we shouldn’t get too triumphant about beating an opponent that’s clearly only showing a faction of her true power.

Then... plot-twist spoiler central warnings.

The surprise factor on this one might have been helped by my having to use shonky machine translation.  Initially I thought Mephisto was doing the White Rabbit thing of trying to guide history down the correct path (where Luka fights Alma Elma in the final of the Queen’s Cup).  Instead she was using us as bait to lure out Alma Elma.  The succubus queen has turned traitor and is refusing to obey the demon lord (presumably Alice’s mother, or whatever is masquerading as Alice’s mother).

Then... another plot twist.  Mephisto has brought along an ally to bring Alma Elma to heal.

Was not expecting Granberia to show up as well

It’s none other than Granberia.

At this point I’m a little confused.  Are we supposed to side with Alma Elma or Granberia?  That question is answered when Alma Elma joins our party.

Important tip.  You know how a new girl joins your party and you immediately send her back to the castle to wait until you can properly sort out her job and gear later.  DO NOT DO THIS HERE.  You need Alma Elma for this fight.

(Ignore the previous paragraph.  The game is smart enough to not let you remove Alma Elma from the party.  I checked this out later.)

It’s really just a fight between Alma Elma and Granberia.  Luka and friends are mostly here to be a bunch of chumps and eat some of Granberia’s attacks instead of Alma Elma.  It’s not like she needs us.  Anyone that remembers their little sparring match at the end of Monster Girl Quest will know that Granberia is rather weak to pleasure.  Alma Elma knows an awful lot of pleasure skills.

And I mean a lot.

Looks at Alma Elma’s list of sexcraft skills.

Wonders if we can ask her for a sparring session afterwards.  You know, for ‘training’ purposes.

Should you lose, you get a repeat of Granberia’s first Bad End from the original series – she stamps on Luka’s crotch with a big dragon foot until he leaks.  MGQ Bad End scenes have come on a long way since then.

You probably won’t lose though.  Use up all of Alma Elma’s SP on a sexcraft skill like Queen’s Drain, follow it by spamming any black magic spell with a heart icon and big damage bonus, and Granberia will last maybe three or four turns before she’s orgasming all over the place.

Mephisto reveals afterwards her plan had been to soften up Alma Elma with Luka's party and that she’d underestimated her strength.  Alma Elma asks her if she fancies a turn.  Mephisto wisely doesn’t want any piece of that.  That’s her cue to leave.

Granberia tries again to persuade Alma Elma back to the demon castle, but the succubus queen isn’t really interested.  She doesn’t seem to care for the current demon lord’s plans.  She’s a wind that blows where it wants.

Which also means she’s not interested in joining us either (aw, but I wanted a sparring session).  But on the other hand, she’s also happy to concede the final to us.

I guess that means we win.  Yay!

(Sonya doesn’t find it very satisfying).

After ‘winning’ we are awarded with the Queen’s Cup.  So that means we get permission to visit Esta and its nearby Tartarus region.

Well, no, not exactly.  It seems the queen has caught up to the fact that Mephisto might, in fact, be rather suspicious.

(What was it?  The green skin?  The weird glowing tentacles?  Or the fact she calls herself freaking Mephisto?)

She wants us to go and investigate her school of magic to the north of the city.

She’s not the only one with additional quests.  Caesar and Arthur greet us on the stairs with their own problems.

More side quests.  We're never getting to Esta.

Caesar’s problem is minotaurs, or rather a lack of them.  They’ve all run off somewhere and – as leader of sorts of the beast faction in these parts – she wants to get to the bottom of their disappearance.

Arthur, meanwhile, is our excuse to finally go to Yamatai Village.  Trouble is brewing there and she wants us to sort it out.

Okay, so it looks like that Tartarus expedition is going to have to wait.

As usual, when presented with multiple side missions, the best thing to do is to check with Amira back at the pocket castle.  According to her sliding scale of difficulty, Caesar’s quest appears to be next on the list.

Time to put on the cowboy hats.  Looks like we’ve got some stray steers to find.

-> Next: Minotaurs' Labyrinth.

Let's Play Monmusu Quest: Paradox [part 2] - 9: Fossil Mine

<- Previous: Grand Noah

We’re on a quest to find some dragon scale stone to upgrade a gear.  This is the fifth of these blacksmith quests (and the first of part 2).  They’re usually pretty straightforward – go to location, go to bottommost level, walk up to the big pile of sparkly stone and press the action button.

The quest location is very easy to find.  It’s the mine entrance just south of the city.

Entrance to Fossil Mine

Unsurprisingly, the mine is infested with monster girls.  There are more frog girls and two brand new monster girls.

The first is some kind of nope bug.

Attack of the nope bugs!

Oddly, it’s one of the few monster girl names in my translated file that’s still in Japanese.  I think it’s Chrysanthemum Bug or something like that.  She looks like a caterpillar girl, but I guess she could also be a peripatus/velvet worm monster girl.  (Yep, that is a thing.  I wrote a H-space story, “Onychophoral Dreams”, featuring one, and that was inspired by artwork I’d seen floating around on the internet.)

Do I want to know what's happening here?

I’m not even sure what’s happening in this pic, so I think it’s probably best to leave well alone.  In her temptation scene, she sucks our cock into... something and extracts all the ‘milk’.

Her bad end has Luka all wrapped up in silk while she gives him a multi-handed handjob, followed by a blowjob finisher.  These are reversed in her request scenes, with the multi-handjob being her 10-affection scene and her temptation ‘sex’ unlocked at 100 affection.

The second new monster girl is a big-titted spirit girl and she is up there and in the running for one of my early favourites of the new batch.

Busty ghosts in need of bustin' (but not by the new lot, coz they're shite)

Her temptation scene is to wrap her big soft boobies around Luka’s cock and lick away at the glans with her long tongue.  Should you fail to resist that (guilty… sigh), she’ll move onto a sloppy blowjob with a lot of sound effects and deep throat Luka until he’s nearly empty.

She's hungry for more than cum

The nearly is an important distinction here.  Luka realises quickly that she’s slurping out his lifeforce as well as his cum (it’s what ghost girls do in MGQ-land), but the spirit girl tells him not to worry as she’s not going to drain him fully.  As with the Will-o’-wisp girl she finishes up with a “the taste is delicious, but if I take any more you’ll die.”

Aww, the ghost girls in MQ:P [part 2] are so considerate.

It’s still a game over, though, as Luka likes it so much he abandons his mission to come back and... well... come, again and again.

Like nope bug, if you recruit spirit girl, you can request an extended version of her boobilicious temptation scene back in the castle.

I'm sure we can spare a little bit of lifeforce...

Mmm.  Being wrapped in heavenly soft boobs and licked all over.

For all of the Monster Girl Quest series’ rep for squick and weirdness, you might be forgiven for thinking the game’s primary speciality is titjobs from what we’ve seen so far.  I’m sure that will change.  We’re going to get Xelvy-ed at some point.

And we do, the moment we’re foolish enough to open that suspiciously placed chest near the entrance.

Yargh! MIMIC!!!

The mimics have upgraded again.  This one is called Boxed Girl.  I’m not sure what’s trying to burst out at the seams of that wooden box, but it does not look girl.

As with all mimics, she’s a fairly tough fight.  It’s also another indication I’m probably over-levelled, as I was able to beat her.  The mimics seem designed to whomp any player not prepared for them the first time around.

Boxed girl has a mystery prize box shtick to her.  Her temptation move is to try to get the player to open her treasure box by inserting a ‘key’.

I think we all know what she means by ‘key’.

It seems a pretty naff temptation move.  I mean, what kind of idiot is going to voluntarily insert their erection into a slimy hole lined with wriggling tentac—

*shakes head*

Goddamn it, Luka.

It’s not as icky as I was expecting.  Like the mermaid merchant, boxed girl likes to drain Luka’s gold as much as his sack.  Her scam is to get people to shove their dick in the hole in an attempt to unlock her ‘treasure’.  When Luka fails to resist her sexy palpating of his penis, she talks him into handing over more gold for another try.  And another.  And another.  And another…

On the plus side, we have plenty of gold.

On the negative side, I don’t think even Luka has that much cum.

For a Xelvy, it’s fairly restrained, to be fair.

Anyway, that’s enough playing the slot machines, we have some rare stone to retrieve.

It’s fairly easy to find.  The staircase icon is a little different, and does blend in a bit with the background, but not enough for you to miss it.  Just head west from the entrance.  On the next floor the quest objective is to the northwest.

The quest objective

And that’s that.  No boss encounter here.  Grab the stone and head back to the blacksmith.  This unlocks Dragon Scale gear.

Now we should be ready for the Coliseum.

-> Next: The Coliseum
