Never give up (TL: Title originally in English)
When I wake up, I was hugging Roxanne like a pillow.
Our legs entwined. My hands around Roxanne’s back.
Waking up so early in the morning with beautiful women on both sides is really pleasant.
My mornings have never been so pleasant before.

Lying like this between the two, I can’t move.
Both my hands and feet arepletely clinging to Roxanne.
Have I really been longing for Roxanne’s back hair so much?
I wonder if Sherry is too small to be a body pillow.
Roxanne’s breasts are supple as ever.
Because I’m hugging her from front, I can savor this suppleness to my heart’s content.
I tighten my embrace a little to test it out.
Having gotten squeezed a little, they spring back out with incredible force.
This is irresistible.
“N~”
While I was having fun with her breasts, Roxanne kisses me.
This is bad.
It seems she’s up.
I’m totally busted.
“Good morning, master.”
“G-Good morning.”
I greet her back in a constrained voice.
“Ah, good morning.”
Sherry too seems to be up.
For she greets from behind me.
Feeling guilty, I take my arms away from around Roxanne, turn around, and embrace Sherry.
“Good morning to you too, Sherry.”
I say that and ce my lips on hers.
Sherry is still clumsy at kissing.
So it’s difficult to kiss her.
But I havee to love it somehow.
Although it feels a lot better how actively Roxanne responds to my kiss, it’s wrong topare them, I think.
Sherry will get ustomed to it over time.
I can’t help but seek Roxanne’s lips again when I was changing into my clothes.
Roxanne’s tongue entwines with mine.
Our tongues entwined. Lips wriggling. Mouths slurping.
Because Roxanne said she loves it, there shouldn’t be any problem.
Because I haven’t selected Sex Maniac job yet, it shouldn’t be Enhanced Vigor skill at work.

We check our stuff and get ready to go.
The more jobs I get, the more jobs I want to select.
Because Party Formation skill is necessary, I can not cancel Explorer job.
Effects of Hero and Wizard jobs are too great to cancel.
Taking emergency situations into consideration, I can not cancel Monk job either.
Now it alles down to Alchemist, Cook and Sex Maniac. I can’t decide on one.
Other people can pick only one job at a time. Luxury of choice can be problematic sometimes.
Human greed knows no bounds after all.
By the way, it seems party will dissolve automatically, if I cancel Explorer job.
Also, to make use of Item Box skill of Cook job, Explorer job can alternatively be entrusted to another member of the party.
“All ready.”
“Let’s go then.”
Sherry reports and we Warp to thebyrinth.
Early morning. Vale townbyrinth floor 2.
“Master, why here?”
“Vale townbyrinth floor 2 is perfect for Sherry’s first time in our party.”
Roxanne can tell from the smell that it’s not Quratar townbyrinth floor 7
I shortly exin it to ease her doubts.
“I see. I understand.”
“First, I want to see Sherry’s fighting style. I will weaken the monsters with my magic, then Sherry will attack and finish off what’s left.”
“Y-Yes.”
“Roxanne will take the frontline and hold the monsters back.”
“Very well.”
I open up bonus points distribution interface, and allocate half of the points to Intelligence to be able to kill Lv2 monsters in one magic attack.
Surviving monsters shall be left for Sherry.
Sherry swings her hammer.
And hits a Green Caterpir Lv2 in its guts.
That must have been quite an impact.
Enraged, the monsterunches a counterattack. Roxanne easily sidesteps.
For Roxanne, dodging that was a piece of cake.
Sherry takes that opportunity to strike it with her hammer.
Good team work.
With that, Sherry takes out the monster.
“Oh well, that was no good.”
I immediately open up party job settings interface, but Master Smith job was not there.
So taking them out with hammer is not the condition.
Or perhaps it also needs Viger Lv5?
“Was it not good enough?”
“Ah, no, Sherry did well. Next time, please use this spear.”
Oops, a slip of tongue.
It was notpletely in vain, I think.
After that, we tried copper spear, copper sword, and bare-handed attacks, but nothing resulted in a new job.
Most probably, Viger Lv5 is another condition for Swordsman and Monk.
To ascertain it, we will have to wait for Viger job to level up.
“Uh!”
As expected, Sherry is taking hits from monsters when she takes them on bare-handed.
It can’t be helped. I too received hits from monsters when I was fighting bare-handed.
But it’s not to the extent of causing concern, for Roxanne is engaging them from the front.
“How are the monster attacks? Is their level too high?”
I ask Sherry while healing her injuries.
“I-Is this Recovery magic?”
“That is so.”
“Like I thought, multiple jobs… Ah, no. One or two attacks of this extent are not a problem.”
Sherry answers me while fighting.
Even under attack, she looksposed.
To get Recovery magic, you have to understand pain, you have to receive damage.
It seems safe now to proceed.
Next, it will be I to take them out with hammer.
By acquiring a job from taking a monster out with hammer, it can be ascertained whether or not taking a monster out with hammer is the condition to acquire Master Smith job.
I raise my hammer up high and crash it down hard on a Green Caterpir Lv2.
“Unfortunately, I’m not as skillful.”
“To swing that, it would be better to use centrifugal force more.”
Hammer is more difficult for me to use than swords because I’m not used to it.
Because it’s centre of gravity is located at the farther end, you use its weight to strike.
Each weapon has its own qualities.
The monster is somehow dead, and I immediately check out my jobs.
A moment of anxiety. Anxiety of anticipation.
However, there is no new job.
I use spear next but the result remains same.
“What do I do now?”
“No, I have to keep trying.”
I now have Roxanne use spear and hammer to see if she gets a new job.
I use wand now to take out monsters, but nothing. That’s right, not all weapons have rted jobs, it seems.
Or probably the conditions to acquire them are not yet met?
In the end, we were not able to acquire any new job, including Master Smith.
“Getting used to it is not difficult, but strength is necessary to wield it. I still like swords better, however.”
Roxannements as she takes out a monster with hammer.
Hammer seems to be exclusive to Sherry here.
Although she looks like she can use spear, I decide against it, for Roxanne is our vanguard. She confronts monsters from close distance, while spear needs you to maintain some distance.
Roxanne should continue to be our vanguard.
Having tried various things out, we move to Quratar townbyrinth to go further up the floors.
Sherry was not able to try out Kobolds on Vale townbyrinth floor 3, but it can’t be helped.
Even if we go up to higher floors, Sherry can fight the monsters without any difficulty.
Sherry might be small and cute, but when she is in battle, she looks dignified.
She might not be at Roxanne’s level, but she is closer to me.
In the world of Rakugo, I’m a Rakugo artist who fortunately got better plot, and now I’mpeting with top Rakugo artists who got better skills than me. Take the plot away from me, and I’m hardlypeting with those below me. (TL: Rakugo is traditionalic storytelling in Japan.)
If I think about it, Sherry and I are probablypeting with each other.
“Uh!”
Wee across a group of 3 monsters on floor 5. Sherry receives an attack from a monster.
Facing a group of 3, I too receive attacks.
“Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. I have fought on floor 8 before. Floor 5 should not be a problem.”
I ask while healing her injuries. Sherry firmly replies.
“No, equipment and party members among other things are different this time. It’s better to use zero-based approach. Also, monsters attack aggressively every so often.”
“Thank you. Still, I’ll be fine.”
Real cause of my concern is the fact that I have leveled her down from Explorer Lv10 to Viger Lv3.
I have yet to tell her about her job change.
I had no choice but to postpone this.
With time, when Sherryes to trust me more, she might ept her job change.
“I hope you will be.”
When I look at Roxanne for her opinion, she nods reassuringly.
Although I’m notpletely free of my worries, it seems fine for now.
We move to floor 6.
To test Sex Maniac job, I add one more job slot to make it 6 jobs.
Because it’s scary to suddenly go fight without ting.
“Continuing on from where I left offst night, let’s see what kind of skill this Sex Maniac job has.”
“Sherry, do you know about it?”
Because it appears awkward to ask only Sherry about such a thing, I turn to Roxanne, who simply shrugs.
‘Why are you asking me?’ kind of expression.
Okay, from now on, I will direct all my questions to Sherry.
“I don’t know either. This job is not openly known, so not many rumors about it are passed around.”
Yeah, it would be terrible to talk about such a thing.
Even if you sessfully get Sex Maniac job, you won’t talk to your parents and siblings about it with your chest puffed with pride.
And on top of that, the condition for acquiring it.
Sex Maniac Lv1
Effects: Medium Increase in Spirit Small Increase in Intelligence Small Increase in MP
Skills: Enhanced Vigor Celibacy Strike
Presumably, Enhanced Vigor is a passive skill and Celibacy Strike is an active skill.
Having selected Sex Maniac job, what I’m afraid of is getting turned on indiscriminately by anyone.
However, if it’s Roxanne, I would obviously not mind doing this and that.
It won’t be out of norm.
You can’t live long with Sex Maniac job, when you’re in heat all the time.
But there’s always prison.
So it’s probably gonna be alright.
Actually it might be possible to live in confinement.
In the whole town, I haven’t seen a single human with Sex Maniac job.
So it is indeed not a job that’s publicly known.
I try to test out Celibacy Strike.
Roxanne finds a Mino Lv6 as I take Durandal out.
Calling for Celibacy Strike in my mind, I sh at the Mino.
Relying on an attack I’m using for the first time, I hit that Mino Lv6.
What’s th
