Strap Yourselves In
PART 04: DAY 1 - COZY BY THE FIRE


"Do you like what you doth see...?" said the voluptuous elf-maiden as she provocatively parted the folds of her robe to reveal the rounded, shadowy glories within. Frito's throat was dry, though his head reeled with desire and ale.

She slipped off the flimsy garment and strode toward the fascinated boggie unashamed of her nakedness. She ran a perfect hand along his hairy toes, and he helplessly watched them curl with the fierce insistent wanting of her.

"Let me make thee more comfortable," she whispered hoarsely, fiddling with the clasps of his jerkin, loosening his sword belt with a laugh. "Touch me, oh touch me," she crooned.


[Voice]
"... Ayano, Tosaku!"

44-shore-dusk-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"Ah... Monica."​

[Monica]
"You're finally back. I was worried that you guys were going to get lost in the middle of nowhere..."

[Kosaku]
"Sorry... the sunset was so beautiful."​

[Monica]
"I don't know what you were thinking... But it seems that you've found some food."

[Kosaku]
"Yes, it's because we've gone deep into the jungle... Is everyone back safely?"​

[Monica]
"What are you talking about... They were all here a long time ago. But... you have to come with me now. Reiko has found a cave where we can all live."

[Kosaku]
"What, really!?... Well, that's good. So, where is this place?"​

[Monica]
"It's in the jungle... You were late, so they went ahead. I know where, so let's go together."

[Kosaku]
"All right... let's go there right now. Lead the way."​

[Monica]
"Ohkei... Ayano, I'll take half of your fruit."

[Ayano]
"Ah... Thank you."

[Monica]
"Well, you better follow me. I'm going to leave you behind if you don't."

[Kosaku]
"All right, let's go."​

Led by Monica, we walked through the jungle towards the place where Reiko-san had found a place to live. In contrast to the relaxing sunshine on the shore, the dense forest was already shrouded in darkness like it was midnight. I wondered if Reiko-san and the others were there... Relying on the markings on the trunks of the trees along the way, we made our way through the dense, dark, treacherous forest.

......

Before long, we saw a light coming into view from beyond the trees... A small bonfire shone softly in the grass in front of a steep rocky slope.

45-cave-evening.png


[Monica]
"Over there... That's where the cave is that's going to be our home for the time being."

When I looked closer through the bushes, I found a cave with a gaping hole in the mossy slope of the rock. It was just big enough for a person to bend over and get in.

[Kosaku]
"So... This is the cave that Reiko-san found?"​

[Monica]
"That's right. I'm sure they're all starving."

In front of the cave the trees opened up and there was a grassy area covered with soft undergrowth. In the middle of the meadow, a small bonfire was burning.

[Yumi]
"Welcome back, Kosaku-san."

46-cave-evening-yumi.png

[Kosaku]
"Here we are, Yumi-chan... Look at all the fruit we've picked."​

[Yumi]
"Y-yes... Right..."

[Kosaku]
"Hmmm?... What?"​

[Yumi]
"Oh, that..."

[Reiko]
"Welcome back... You've been gone for a long time, haven't you?"

47-cave-evening-yumi-reiko.png

[Kosaku]
"Oh, Reiko-san... We're finally back."​

[Reiko]
"I was worried that something might have happened to you."

[Kosaku]
"I'm sorry... We went quite far into the jungle to pick this fruit."​

[Yumi]
...

[Kosaku]
"Ah... So, what were you talking about, Yumi-chan?"​

[Yumi]
"No, it's... it's nothing."

[Kosaku]
...?​

Yumi was on the verge of saying something when she walked away. It felt like something was wrong.

[Kosaku]
I wonder... Is there a problem, Yumi-chan?​

[Reiko]
"So many... I see you've picked a lot of fruit."

48-cave-evening-reiko.png

[Kosaku]
"Hmm?... Ah, it seems that there's a lot of them growing deep in the jungle."​

[Reiko]
"Thank goodness... None of us could find any food."

[Kosaku]
"Well... It's a good thing we were all looking together."​

As I said that, I looked around and saw no sign of Shiori-san.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Where is she?"​

[Reiko]
"She's in the cave... She's probably resting in there."

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Is something wrong with her?"​

[Reiko]
"I don't know... She looked pretty tired."

Understandable... Even though I had some confidence in my physical strength, I was very tired after walking around in the dense forest all day long. The professor's fate remained unknown, and Shiori-san must have been overwhelmed with fatigue and exhaustion.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Reiko]
"If you're worried, why don't you check on her? ... We'll get the food ready for you. Would you mind also fetching her for me?"

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... Well, okay then. You're coming too, Ayano-san?"​

[Ayano]
"Yup... I'd like to see what's inside."

[Reiko]
"Well, could you leave the fruit here? ... Monica and I will prepare them for you."

[Kosaku]
"Thank you... Let's go inside, Ayano-san."​

[Ayano]
"Okay... Let's go."

I accompanied her into the cave. The entrance was narrow and shrouded in pitch-black darkness, but the interior was slightly illuminated. As soon as I got through the entrance, the interior became wider, a kind of circular room with a diameter of about five meters.

49-cave-inside.png

[Ayano]
"Wow... it's so big inside."

It was a bit damp in the cave, but there were no animals in it, and it was very clean. There was a lamp in the center, vaguely illuminating the interior.

[Kosaku]
"Really... Well, with this, we'll be okay in a rainstorm, won't we?"​

When I looked around, I saw Shiori-san sitting against the wall. She seemed to have noticed me.

[Shiori]
"Welcome back... You made it back in one piece. I was so worried about you."

50-cave-inside-shiori.png

[Ayano]
"Here we are, Shiori-san...I'm sorry we're late."

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Is something wrong?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... I think I'm a little tired. But I'm okay... I feel much better after a little rest."

[Kosaku]
"... That's good."​

Maybe it was the light from the lamp... Shiori-san's face looked terrible to me after half a day of not seeing her.

[Kosaku]
"Oh, I picked a lot of fruit. We're going to have a great meal together. Do you think you can eat?"​

[Shiori]
"Well... I don't have much of an appetite."

[Ayano]
"You should eat some of this while you still have a chance... Shiori-san. You never know what's going to happen."

[Kosaku]
"Ayano's right... If you don't eat well, you're not going to make it."​

[Shiori]
"... Okay, I'll eat... Kosaku and the others took great pains to collect it, right?"

[Kosaku]
"Anyway... I'm hungry. Let's go outside and get some food."​

[Ayano]
"I'm starving too... Come to think of it, I haven't eaten anything all day!"

[Shiori]
"Heh, heh... Ayano-san and Kosaku-san are so full of energy. I feel like I'm getting pumped up too!"

[Kosaku]
"Hahahaha... For the time being, I'm proud to stay positive."​

[Ayano]
"Oh, excuse me... So I'm not?"

[Kosaku]
"What? ... No, I didn't mean to say it like that."​

[Shiori]
"He-he-he... I'm glad you two are so close. I'm so jealous of you. Anyway, you were starving... Let's get out there."

We were all gathered around the bonfire for the first meal of the day.

45-cave-evening.png

[Monica]
"If that's not enough for you, let me know. We still have a little fruit left over."

Reiko-san and Monica are handing out food to everyone.

The fruits were offered to me on a large leaf which I didn't know where it came from. They were neatly peeled with a knife.

[Kosaku]
... Indeed, I'm surrounded by girls.​

It's not like it's been cooked properly or anything, but... The tension I've been feeling until now has eased up, and I felt pleasant fatigue pouring in. It wouldn't be like this if it was an all-male group. I felt relaxed and at peace after a hard day's work.

[Monica]
"Now that you all got your meal... Come on guys, eat up."

They were all probably really hungry... For a while, everyone was silently absorbed in the process. I was so engrossed in the fruit that I was eating... It had a strong acidity that filled my mouth, but it didn't bother me much because I wanted to eat so badly.

[Monica]
"Those are sour fruits by the way, aren't they? I'm not complaining because at least we have them... I guess I'm going to be even more thirsty now."


[Kosaku]
"It's the only fruit we found that's edible. You don't have to eat it if you're gonna complain, right?"​

[Yumi]
"... Thank you for the food."

46-cave-evening-yumi.png

[Ayano]
"Yumi, you're not going to eat anymore? ... There's still so much left."

[Yumi]
"Yes... I'm so full..."

Yumi finished her meal leaving the fruit almost untouched... And I've been feeling a little lethargic for a while now.

[Monica]
"Yumi, is something wrong? ... If that's the case, you've got to eat a little harder or your body won't last, right?"

[Yumi]
"No... No, it's not like that. I'm just so full I can't eat. Don't worry about it so much... I'm fine."

Despite saying so, Yumi-chan's face looked a little strange... It seemed like she was trying hard to be positive.

[Shiori]
"I, uh... I can't eat anymore, too."

51-cave-evening-shiori.png

Just like Yumi-chan, Shiori-san also finished her meal... And she also left most of the fruit behind.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... If you don't eat right, you'll break down later, you know."​

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry... But I really can't eat anymore."

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
"Excuse me, but I'm going to bed now... Kosaku, if you want, please eat my share too."

[Kosaku]
"Oh... Shiori-san."​

Shiori-san held out the half-eaten fruit to me and disappeared into the cave.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Yumi]
"Oh, Yumi wants to lie down too..."

[Kosaku]
"I don't mind... Yumi-chan, are you sure you're all right?"​

[Yumi]
"Yeah, I'm fine... I'm sorry I'm troubling you."

Yumi disappeared into the cave as Shiori-san did.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Monica]
"We're all exhausted... I don't blame her, we've had a pretty eventful day."

[Ayano]
"Well... I'm exhausted too. I just want to get a good night's sleep on a nice, soft bed."

[Kosaku]
...​

[Monica]
"I'm sure you're both going to be fine tomorrow. Let's get you some sleep tonight."

[Kosaku]
"Okay, well... I'll leave you alone."​

I sighed and tossed all the remaining fruit into my mouth, flattening it out in one fell swoop.

[Kosaku]
"... Phew."​

For the first time in a day, I was full... My stomach was active and I could feel it.

[Kosaku]
"Well, finally, I've got a full stomach... We'll have to think a bit about what we're going to do tomorrow."​

I waited a while for the rest to finish their meal, and then I said that.

[Monica]
"Right... First, let's talk about what happened today."

52-cave-evening-reiko-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"Yeah, right... Let's do it."​

Accepting Monica's suggestion, we briefly discussed today's events with each other. However, we didn't get much new information from her or Reiko-san, and eventually, we had to reaffirm that the island was isolated in the middle of the ocean, and covered by deep dense jungle.

[Ayano]
"In the end, we have no choice but to survive on this island until a boat passes by."

[Kosaku]
...​

[Monica]
"Anyway, what are we going to do tomorrow? ... Tosaku."

[Kosaku]
"Right, well... From what I've seen up there on the tree, it doesn't seem to be a very large island, so we're going to explore every inch of it looking for food."​

[Reiko]
"All right... let's do it."

[Ayano]
"Huh... Another day of wandering around the jungle."

53-cave-evening-monica-ayano.png

[Kosaku]
"I guess so... We still don't know what the other side of the mountain looks like, and the only food we've found is that sour fruit, right?"​

[Kosaku]
"Besides, we don't know anything about this island yet... I think it's worth a look."​

[Monica]
"Sure... We'd better do what we can to stay alive and safe until one day a ship comes by and rescues us."

[Kosaku]
...​

Well, you should try to do the best you can... I was curious about that strange mucus-like substance I'd seen back on the trail.

[Kosaku]
What in the world was that?​

When I thought about it, it almost sent a shiver down my spine. I've tried to shrug it off.

[Kosaku]
...​

The flames of the bonfire have almost gone out. A soft, warm breeze was blowing out of nowhere... I poured dirt on the remaining fire, put it out, and got up.

[Kosaku]
"Okay... we have to get up early tomorrow, so let's call it a day."​

I took a spot by the entrance to the cave, and I laid down. The hard ground would normally feel painful, but right now it felt cool and comfortable to me. The lamp that illuminated the cave has already been turned off, and in the darkness, you could hear the sounds of the girls breathing softly... Everyone was so tired that they fell asleep quickly.

[Kosaku]
... Jesus, we've had a long day today...​

54-cave-night.png

When I closed my eyelids, all the things that happened yesterday on the yacht and today's events came to my mind one after another like a distant memory.

......

My body was so tired that I didn't want to move anymore while lying on my back, but my mind was strangely excited. Even with my eyes closed, I couldn't quite fall asleep.

[Kosaku]
... If I don't get a good night's sleep, my body won't last... Tomorrow we'll have to walk around in the jungle...​

Talking to myself in my head, I tried to calm down.

......

... *rustling*

[Kosaku]
Huh?​



I tried not to think about it, and finally, I was almost asleep. But I heard that tiny noise and woke up. It's as if someone went out of the cave, gently creeping around.

[Kosaku]
Who is this... at this time of night?​

[Kosaku]
...​

For a while, I remained silent in the darkness, waiting for a sound, but the owner of the footsteps went out and never came back. I started drifting into the sleep again.

CHOICE

様子を見にいってみる - Let's take a look
いやこのまま眠ろう - No, I'll just go back to sleep

(and that's where the interesting stuff starts to happen...)

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
Well... let's go and check it out.​

I sat up quietly and walked out of the cave. Perhaps because it was pitch black inside, the moonlight felt surprisingly bright when I went out. There was no wind, a thick, choking scent of grass filled the air, and some nameless insects buzzed loudly around me.

[Kosaku]
...​

As soon as I left the cave, I looked around... But I couldn't see anyone, at least within the moonlit area.

[Kosaku]
... Nobody's here... Was I dreaming or something?​

The footsteps that I heard so clearly earlier seemed like a dream. I looked around and walked to the middle of the meadow.

[Kosaku]
... What?​

I stopped walking, and I listened... I could hear a faint voice in the dark jungle.

[Voice]
(...)

[Kosaku]
I heard it right... someone must have walked out.​

I wondered who was doing what in the middle of the night... Questions arose in my mind and my curiosity was piqued. As if attracted by a strange voice, I crept closer and closer in the direction I heard the voice from. Passing through the bushes, I made progress in the direction of the voice, while suppressing any hints of my presence. Blocked by the branches and foliage of thickly growing trees, the moonlight could not reach this far, and the jungle was shrouded in pitch-black darkness as if it had been smeared with ink. The sound of my footsteps trampling the undergrowth seemed so loud to me. My heart was pounding like an alarm bell. As I went on, the voice became louder and clearer... A stifled, strained gasp.

[Kosaku]
Oh... Is that?​

On the other side of the big tree in front of me something vaguely white was moving in the grass... As soon as I found out it was a person lying down, I quickly hid behind a large tree.

[Kosaku]
...​

Holding my breath, I watched her quietly... Hidden among the bushes, a girl was lying down there...

[Kosaku]
Is, is that... Yumi-chan!?​

[Yumi]
"*pants heavily*"

Yumi was lying on the grass, writhing and cowering, stifling labored moans.

[Kosaku]
What the hell is going on... Is there something wrong with her?​

Speaking of which, I remembered that Yumi was behaving oddly ever since I arrived at the cave...

[Kosaku]
Oh, my God... I'll have to take care of her.​

(he's a lil' dense, ain't he? tho judging by the description it is kinda darker than the image tells us)

I jumped out from behind the tree where I was hiding and tried to get to Yumi's side, but I stopped in my tracks... Something wasn't right.

[Yumi]
"Ah... Haa..."

Yumi's voice was strangely sweet as she gasped softly. Looking closely, I could see that her clothes were in disarray, and her white skin was exposed. As my eyes have grown accustomed to the darkness, I saw the white moving shape more clearly.

[Kosaku]
Yumi-chan... W-what the heck?...​

Yumi had one hand on her chest and the other one on her crotch, and she was wiggling around. Occasionally, her body would twitch and tremble, and she would give out a sweet sigh.

55-yumi-masturbate.png

[Yumi]
"Un... Haa, haaa, haaa..."

As I looked at Yumi's figure wriggling in the dark, I couldn't move from the spot like I was tied up.

[Kosaku]
... M-maybe... Oh, wait, she's masturbating?​

(slowpoke at its finest, gentlemen)

I gulped and swallowed my saliva. I couldn't comprehend the situation, but Yumi's voice was definitely caused by sexual arousal. Before I knew it, the thing in my lower body was stiff and swollen. My heart couldn't stop throbbing. Thumping and thumping, my heart was pounding heavily. Surging excitement with a sense of guilt ran through my body.

CHOICE

Yumiに近寄る - Approach Yumi
この場を去る - Leave this place

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
......​

I was unable to resist, so I stood up and gently approached the lying Yumi. I stepped on a dead branch on the way, and the crackling sound echoed in my ears very loudly.

[Kosaku]
I... What the hell am I doing?​

A vague doubt flickered through my mind... But my body was acting on its own. As it was, I climbed on top of Yumi, who was writhing wistfully and panting, and pressed my body against her.

[Yumi]
"Wh... Eeeek!?"

Yumi gave a small squeal of surprise as she awakened from her dream.

[Yumi]
"Ko... Kosaku-san?!"

Yumi stared at me with a mixture of surprise and horror on her face. It didn't matter, I tore off her shirt, which was already rolled up, and forcibly ripped off her bra. Yumi's small breasts were exposed to my eyes, white even in the night.

[Yumi]
"N-no..."

Yumi screamed in a muffled voice and tried desperately to resist... But she was no match for a man's strength. I grabbed both of Yumi's wrists with one hand, held them over her head, and I let my fingers crawl over her tiny breasts.

[Yumi]
"No..."

The breast was still hard and lacking in volume, but its skin was moist and soft.

[Yumi]
".. Stop it..."

Yumi let out a small squeal as she jerked and squirmed. My fingertips touched the small, pointy buds at the top of her breasts. I put my mouth on the hardened nipple and licked it around like a dog while wrapping my palm around it.

[Yumi]
"Ha... Aaaah..."

Yumi flailed her limbs in a desperate attempt to get away from me while making a sweet, nasal sound.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Kosaku]
I... What the hell am I doing... How can I do this to her?​

Blood rushed through my head, and only beastly lust dominated my consciousness. My member was hot and hard as burning iron, pulsing and throbbing. As if driven by an irresistible urge, I stripped the culotte skirt from Yumi's desperately struggling lower body.

[Yumi]
"Stop. Stop... Please stop."

Yumi was struggling desperately with her arms and legs, crying and pleading with me over and over again... But that voice only served to encourage my lust. I pulled the underwear off of her tightly closed inner thighs and forced her to open her legs wide.

55-yumi-sex.png

[Yumi]
"No, no!!"

It was white even in the night, and Yumi's plump mound was exposed in front of me.

(okay, i'm at my limits here. never read any pornography so all these plump mounds and pointy buds have me at a huge disadvantage.)

I put my hand around it and let my fingertips crawl over, tracing its lines.

[Yumi]
"Oh... noo...."

That part of Yumi was already burning hot and moist enough to wet my fingertips. I buried the tip of my middle finger in the crack and wiggled it around.

[Yumi]
"Don't... Ahhhh..."

Every time I thrust my fingertips inside tender flesh, I could hear the lascivious sound, making me want more.

[Yumi]
"Waa... Ah... No..."

The tip of my cock was throbbing painfully, and I couldn't wait to stab it in. My body was desperate to get inside this soft flesh as fast as possible.

[Yumi]
"Un... Stop it..."

Yumi's lips let out a small desperate moan... There was hardly any pubic hair, and her pink crack was visible. I used my fingertips to spread her opening. Pushing it wide, I played with little protrusions that poked out in my face.

(俺は指先で閉じ目を押し広げるようにすると、顔を出した小さな突起を弄んだ. - at least I THINK he's spread out the vaginal lips but all of the machines think 目 is an eye and it's mostly a guess anyway. i guess vagina is shaped somewhat like an eye...)

[Yumi]
"... Ah... Ooohhh..."

Yumi's body trembled a little with trepidation, and she let out a pitiful gasp... The nectar oozed out from the depths of her vagina, and my fingertips got wet. Her panting and the tantalizing sound of my fingertips touching her echoed in the darkness.
(once again, "from the depths of her closed eyes")

[Yumi]
"Ohh... Haaaa..."

Holding Yumi down with one hand, I unzipped my jeans, pulled them down to my knees along with my underwear, and took out my erect penis.

(そそり立ったいちもつを取り出した - RISING ICHIMO, ICHI GIBLETS, a rustling tangle, slithering tangles. wth)

damn the machines, they don't know shit about sex, it seems. only edict and wwwjdic mark いちもつ (ichimotsu) as:

a)[/SIZE] first-rate specimen; first-rate object; superb item; superb article; excellent thing; pick (e.g. of a litter); superb person; excellent person,
b)[/SIZE] (1) plot; ulterior motive; secret intention; (2) thing; article; (3) (esp. いちもつ) penis

My cock pulsed with heavenly passion, throbbing like a living thing.
(dayum)

[Yumi]
"Ah... No, no!?"

Yumi's face contorted in fear, a muffled, unvoiced scream. I forcefully thrust my hips into her inner thighs as she tried desperately to close her legs. I pressed the tip of my cock against her privates. Her soft flesh curled up and cupped my moist cock.

[Yumi]
"... Aaah... Stop..."

I bent my back, holding Yumi's waist as she tried to escape, and I slowly pushed my body forward.

[Yumi]
"Haa....Aaaah"

My hot rod rammed into her.

[Yumi]
"... Un....! Naaaa!"

... Gunyu.

[Kosaku]
Eh?​

I unexpectedly stopped the movement of my waist, which I had thrust in halfway. I felt my dick hitting something different than her body.

[Kosaku]
Wh-what?... Is there something inside of her?​

I felt the object hitting the tip twitch, and I hastily pulled out of her.

[Yumi]
"*pants heavily*"

Opening Yumi's legs wide, I looked into that area. Her cunt moved, and something seemed to come out of it... At that time...

[Voice]
"... What the hell are you doing there?!"

There was the sound of rustling in the grass behind me, and suddenly a voice rang out in the darkness. I was about to turn around when I received a sharp blow to the back of my head.

[Kosaku]
"... !!"​

For a moment, I lost track of what was going on, and then I slumped forward to the ground onto my hands...

[Kosaku]
"‥‥‥‥‥‥"​

My nose smelled a foul smell, and something warm poured on my head in a trickle.

[Yumi]
"... Eeeeeeeek!!!"

Yumi shrieked lying there crumpled underneath me. But her voice was oddly distant as if coming from behind a wall for some reason. I looked at Yumi, who was staring at me with a horrified expression and trembling. Suddenly, her body was covered in scarlet blood droplets as if splattered with red paint.

[Kosaku]
...​

I tried to turn around, but I couldn't move my body. I felt my strength drain out of me, and my consciousness drifting away. Then I fell facedown, sprawled on the ground with a thud.

[Voice]
"Messing with this girl... What a stupid man."

I heard a voice and the sound of footsteps approaching... The voice was muffled, and I recognized it. The owner of the voice kicked me violently and turned me onto my back. But I could hardly even feel the pain anymore. I could barely see the black silhouette looking down at me in the darkness. In its right hand was a large rock covered in blood.

[Kosaku]
... What was... What was that thing?​

Gradually losing awareness, I was wondering about the object in Yumi's body. But I'd never know the answer because..... Because... It's...

[Voice]
"How unfortunate. If only you had behaved yourself... You could have lived a little longer."

A shadow standing over me murmured in a derisive, chuckling voice. And a large rock in their right hand swung down hard on my face.

... Gusha.

Losing consciousness, not being able to see or hear anything... When I couldn't think anymore, I plunged headlong into the darkest depths of death.

END No1

(ahem... well, that was the end of Kosaku-kun, this letsplay is over, moving on.)

Strap Yourselves In
PART 05: DAY 2 - GURURURURURU

(so, what if we didn't approach Yumi back then?)

CHOICE

Yumiに近寄る - Approach Yumi
この場を去る - Leave this place

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
Th-this... I can't look at it.​

For some reason, I felt intense shame, like I was watching something I wasn't supposed to, so I left the place. Making sure I moved quietly, I backtracked to the cave.

60-flowers-night.png

I returned back to the point where I couldn't hear Yumi's voice and finally let out a sigh of relief.

[Kosaku]
... Phew...​

I felt like I could still hear that muffled gasp if I listened carefully. The image of Yumi's white body moving in the dark was still vivid in my mind and I couldn't get rid of it.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Kosaku]
Yumi-chan... I can't believe she did such a thing...​

I still couldn't believe what I saw. It was hard for me to imagine the cheerful and energetic Yumi like that.

[Kosaku]
I mean, she seemed so childish, but... I don't understand women at all.​

As I was thinking about it, I was walking around feeling very tired.

[Kosaku]
There is no mystery here... Yumi is a girl of her age, so she probably masturbates sometimes... I'll forget what I just saw. One nap and I won't even remember.​

As I was walking towards the cave, I finally sobered up from the excitement and told myself to change my mindset.

[Kosaku]
I've got to wake up early tomorrow... I'll go back to the cave and go to sleep.​

I made that decision in my mind and quickly went back to the cave... Finally, I made it through the dark jungle to a place where I could see it. The grass in front of the cave was illuminated by the moonlight. It made me feel somewhat relieved.

[Kosaku]
... What?​

As I walked, I looked closely at the grass. In front of me, a slender silhouette stood out against the pale moonlight.

[Kosaku]
Ah... That's...​

57-shiori-cave-night.png



Shiori-san was sitting there, apparently doing nothing.

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori-san."​

[Shiori]
"Kosaku... -san? What's wrong? ... It's so late. You just walked in from the jungle, right?"

[Kosaku]
"Eh?... N-no, it's..."​

When Shiori-san asked me, I was at a loss for an answer. I couldn't possibly mention Yumi-chan.

[Kosaku]
"Well... I just had to go pee, that's all."​

[Shiori]
"... Oh."

Shiori-san didn't ask anymore. She seemed to be distracted by something else other than my lies.

[Kosaku]
"... How long have you been here?... Can't sleep?"​

[Shiori]
...

Shiori-san didn't answer the question, she just looked away silently and slumped down.

Seeing that, I finally figured out why she couldn't sleep.

[Kosaku]
Yeah... She worries about the professor...​

(after that it merges into the start of conversation with Shiori)

(this one is from the point before going outside)

CHOICE

様子を見にいってみる - Let's take a look
いやこのまま眠ろう - No, I'll just go back to sleep

(now that we know how choice 1 went with Yumi, so let's just go to sleep instead)

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
... Maybe someone went out to pee... I don't care.​

It was a plausible reason, and I felt somewhat relaxed. I took my mind off of it and fell back into the slumber.

... Jari.

A little while later, I guess... I heard slow and deliberate footsteps, as if someone was making sure everyone's asleep while leaving.

[Kosaku]
Here we go again... Who the heck is it this time? ...​

I couldn't keep my curiosity in check, so I got up on my feet and slipped out of the cave. Perhaps because it was pitch black inside, the moonlight felt surprisingly bright when I went out of the cave. There was no wind, a thick, choking scent of grass filled the air, and some nameless insects buzzed loudly around me.

[Kosaku]
...​

As soon as I left the cave, I looked around. In the grass in front of me, a slender silhouette stood out against the pale moonlight.

[Kosaku]
Ah... That is...​

57-shiori-cave-night.png

Shiori-san was sitting there, apparently doing nothing.

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori-san."​

[Shiori]
"Kosaku-san... I'm sorry... I woke you up, didn't I?"

[Kosaku]
"No, I just couldn't sleep ..."​

[Shiori]
"Well... All right, then."

[Kosaku]
"Can't sleep?"​

[Shiori]
...

Shiori-san didn't answer the question, she just looked away silently and slumped down.

58-shiori-moon.png

[Kosaku]
"... Do you mind... If I sit down next to you?"​

[Shiori]
...

Shiori-san nodded her head silently. I sat down next to her and quietly watched the scenery for a while.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
...

After I sat down, Shiori-san didn't say a word, she just stared up at the night sky with a lonely look on her face. We were surrounded by the noise of insects. Time passed on as we remained silent to each other.

[Kosaku]
... At a time like this... Should I say something?​

I wanted to say something to Shiori-san, but... What could I say, I was unable to find the right words. I sat in awkward silence, unable to bring up any sensible topics of conversation.

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
...

The air was absolutely steaming. Even if I stayed still, my skin would get sweaty... My shirt felt sticky and clung to my body. Shiori-san's slender neckline was moist with sweat. Her thin blouse was slightly damp, revealing the underwear.

59-shiori-back.png

[Kosaku]
... At a time like this... What the heck am I thinking?​

I chided myself for my foul behaviour in my head. Now was not the time to think of such things.

[Shiori]
"Kosaku-san... Do you hear this?"

[Kosaku]
"Huh? D-do I hear... What?"​

Suddenly, Shiori-san spoke up, and I panicked as if she knew the dirty thoughts I was thinking.

[Shiori]
"This insect... It has a really small voice that blends with the other insects' noises, but it's beautiful like the crystal singing, isn't it?"

When Shiori-san told me so, I listened closely to the insects.

[Kosaku]
...​

Indeed, among the noisy voices of other insects, there was a beautiful moderate timbre.

[Kosaku]
"... I can hear it. It's so beautiful. But I've never heard an insect like this before... I wonder what kind it is."​

[Shiori]
"Hehe... It's a very rare insect that's only found in the South Pacific."

[Kosaku]
"Heh... Shiori-san is so knowledgeable."​

[Shiori]
"... It was a long time ago when I met Michio... He went to the trouble of catching one for me on a trip and told me about it."

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
"But even though they make such a beautiful sound... They're basically just cockroaches."

[Kosaku]
"Co-cockroaches? ... With such a beautiful sound?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... They're so much alike that you can barely tell them apart."

[Kosaku]
"Haha... I can't believe it, listening to this sound."​

58-shiori-moon.png

[Shiori]
"I know... I couldn't believe it, too. And then... With a serious voice, he said... Sometimes it's better not to see things the way they are. You're lucky you're blind... He said that."

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
"At the time, I wondered how he could be so rude... Later, I found out about the insect... It is sensitive to changes in its environment and can hardly survive outside its habitat. I guess, Michio... He went to a lot of trouble to bring that bug back to Japan just so I could hear it. After that... I started to fall for him more and more."

[Kosaku]
"... I didn't know that professor had that side of him... I'm sorry, but I can't imagine."​

[Shiori]
"Hehe... He's still a hard man, but he's always been nice to me."

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
"But since we started going out... Michio has become more committed to his research than ever before. My eyesight... My doctor says it's inherited and there's no way to cure it. Hazama told me that if he completed the research he was doing, he might be able to cure it through application."

[Kosaku]
"Well... It would be wonderful if that really happened, wouldn't it?"​

[Shiori]
"If I was able to see... I would be so happy. But I would be so much happier if he was always there for me instead..."

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori-san..."​

[Shiori]
"What if... What if I were to lose Michio like this... I... I don't know what I'd do then..."

As she finished speaking, Shiori-san held her knees tightly and lowered her head. Her thin shoulders started trembling as if she was carrying some big weight.

[Shiori]
...

[Kosaku]
"D-don't worry... Shiori-san... I'm sure the professor is alive and well... Everyone survived the storm. I don't think he's the only one who didn't make it! I'm sure he did too... He was washed up somewhere on this island and we just haven't run into him yet. So don't worry... Cheer up, Shiori-san."​

[Shiori]
...

Although I didn't know what the hell I was talking about, I tried to comfort Shiori-san by saying that.

But Shiori-san kept her face down as if she wasn't listening to me and was sobbing quietly.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san..."​

CHOICE

そっとしておく - Leave her alone
Shioriを抱き寄せる - Hug Shiori

===================

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
...​

I couldn't say anything else and just stared at Shiori-san in silence.

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry... Kosaku-san..."

[Kosaku]
"... D-don't apologize... It's okay... Shiori-san."​

Feeling frustrated that I couldn't do anything I finally said it. Shiori-san's quiet sobs turned into full weeping that gushed forth from her.

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry, Kosaku-san... I'm so sorry..."

Shiori-san apologized to me over and over in a blubbering voice and kept crying. After sobbing for some time, she finally looked up. I felt pity looking at her red swollen face with moist eyes.

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry... I should go and get some rest... Thank you, Kosaku-san."

Saying this quietly, Shiori-san gently stood up and walked back into the cave.

[Kosaku]
...​

The sticky, wet wind caressed my cheeks... And a faint lingering scent of sweet perfume wafted through my nostrils, tickling them.

CHOICE 2

I put my hand gently on her shoulder and pulled her to my chest.

[Shiori]
"...Kosaku...-san..."

Shiori-san leaned on my chest, grabbed my shirt, and burst into tears.

[Shiori]
"... I'm so sorry, Kosaku-san... So sorry about this..."

[Kosaku]
...​

I remained silent and gently caressed her hair as an answer. I felt a little guilty about that, perhaps because Shiori-san was the professor's wife.

[Shiori]
...

Shiori-san apologized to me over and over in a blubbering voice and kept crying.

After crying for some time, Shiori-san finally let go of my chest. I felt pity looking at her red swollen face with moist eyes.

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry... I should go and get some rest... Thank you, Kosaku-san."

Saying this quietly, Shiori-san gently stood up and walked back into the cave.

[Kosaku]
...​

My shirt chest was damp with her tears. And a faint lingering scent of sweet perfume wafted through my nostrils, tickling them.

(remember, guys, girls smell good even after surviving through shipwrecks)

For some reason, I was feeling awful.

[Kosaku]
... I don't know if I'm... Am I falling in love with Shiori-san?​

CHOICE

そうかも知れない - Could be
そんなことはない - No way

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
... Maybe... I'm falling for her.​

When I thought of Shiori-san's slender neckline and lonely profile, my heart ached in my chest.

[Kosaku]
Now that the professor is missing... I'm the only one Shiori-san can rely on.​

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
... This is absurd. I don't know what the hell I' m thinking...​

Even though she was not that different in age from me, Shiori-san was professor Hazama's wife. I quickly shook off the thought that had popped into my head as a momentary distraction.

[Kosaku]
But... Now that the professor is missing, I'm the only one she can rely on.​

(merge)

[Kosaku]
...​

Lying down in the grass, I stared up at the night sky. As if sprinkled with silver paint, the night sky was covered with a myriad of twinkling stars. Since we were in the southern hemisphere, the star pattern was different from that of Japan... And you probably couldn't even see such a scene there unless you went to a place with very clean air.

[Kosaku]
... When I watched it like this... I felt an eerie feeling of being sucked in.​

As I gazed at the overwhelming mass of stars, I slowly drifted off into a trance, and before I knew it, I fell into a deep sleep.

......

[Voice]
"... Kosaku-san..."

[Kosaku]
Uh...​

[Voice]
"Wake up... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
...Uhhh...​

[Voice]
"... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori... -san?"​

61-cave-shiori.png



[Shiori]
"... Are you awake?"

I must have fallen asleep while I was lying on the grass staring at the stars. I was awakened by the voice of Shiori-san.

[Kosaku]
"What?... Th-this is..."​

I looked around, wondering. I was sure that I had fallen asleep on the grass outside the night before, but I found myself lying in the cave.

[Kosaku]
"H-how did I... get inside...?"​

[Shiori]
"This morning, we found you and brought you here all together... No matter if it's tropics, you're going to be very sick if you sleep outside."

[Kosaku]
"... Ah... Is that so?"​

[Shiori]
"Heh, heh... You still sound sleepy."

Shiori-san chuckled when she said that. She looked refreshed as if last night had been a dream. I rose up stiffly and stretched. After that, I moved my body doing some exercise. I felt refreshed after a good night's sleep. My body was full of energy. It seemed that there was no trace of yesterday's fatigue in it.

[Kosaku]
"... Oh yeah, where is everyone?"​

I looked around and asked Shiori-san, feeling a little upset.

[Shiori]
"They've all gone off to find food. It's just us two left."

[Kosaku]
"Whaaaat?... R-really?!"​

I jumped up on the spot and rushed out of the cave. I think I've hit my head on the ceiling at the entrance on the way.

62-cave-day.png

[Shiori]
"... W-wait, Kosaku-san!"

[Kosaku]
"... Th-there's nobody else here... Did they really all leave already?"​

When I looked up, I saw that the sun had already risen high in the sky and was shining bright. Apparently, I've overslept pretty badly.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-why didn't you guys wake me up?"​

63-cave-day-shiori.png

[Shiori]
“Even though you had some chances when we carried you to the cave... But you didn't even stir.”

[Kosaku]
...​

[Shiori]
"And yet everyone... We were waiting for you to wake up until just a moment ago. But if we waited for you any longer, they wouldn't be able to find food and come back before sundown... So they had no choice but to leave."

[Kosaku]
"Like that... You should have woken me up by force."​

[Shiori]
"We were going to do that, but... Kosaku, you looked so peaceful in your sleep, so..."

[Kosaku]
"No way, haha... Looking so peaceful, you say."​

[Shiori]
"And Reiko-san... She said since you worked so hard yesterday, you could take a day off today to rest..."

[Kosaku]
"Gimme a break... I can't let the girls find food while I, a man, rest."​
(i've left the slightly awkward manly manliness phrasing as a point)

[Shiori]
"... You're right... I'm so sorry."

[Kosaku]
"Oh... N-no, you don't have to apologize..."​

[Shiori]
...

[Kosaku]
"Sorry... I overslept by myself and it's my fault."​

As I apologized for taking it out on Shiori-san, I was thinking about what I should do now. Anyway, I couldn't just sit here and relax all day.

[Kosaku]
"If they were here just a little while ago... They can't all be that far away yet, can they?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... Right."

[Kosaku]
"I'm going to go after them. I might still be able to catch up. Oh, but... You're going to left all alone here?"​

[Shiori]
"Don't worry about me... I'll be fine on my own. I'll stay here and look after our home."

I stared at Shiori-san without thinking... Suddenly I remembered last night.

[Kosaku]
Is it really okay to leave her alone?​

CHOICE

大丈夫だろうい - She'll be fine
や何か心配だ - I'm a little worried

(so welcome to day 2. that's where the game opens up significantly. lots of paths to go through, just look at this diagram i made while playing. some of it is the same choices + different flags set but i couldn't be sure about some of the flags so i've probably made a bigger diagram than necessary. i won't be going through all of this right now in the interest of keeping the plot line going forward but i'll probably revisit this once i'm done with at least some of the happy endings)

day2-graph.png

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
...​

Shiori-san looks more cheerful than she did last night... It'll probably be all right.

[Kosaku]
Right... Shiori-san may be blind, but she's not a child.​

Looking at Shiori-san's lively face, I decided to trust her.

CHOICE 2

Shiori-san's expression was a far cry from last night's. But there was something about it that made me feel bad.

[Kosaku]
"Are you sure... You're gonna be okay on your own?"​

Feeling a little worried, I asked Shiori-san about it.

[Shiori]
"You know... Don't give me any special treatment, Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"... Huh?"​

[Shiori]
"I'm indeed blind, so I can't do things the others can do... But I don't want to be a drag on everyone. That's why... I don't want you to worry about me specifically."

Shiori-san said in a dispassionate, yet firm voice.

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori-san..."​

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry for saying this when Kosaku-san is so worried about me."

[Kosaku]
"No, I never thought Shiori-san would think of it that way... It was my fault."​

[Shiori]
...

(merge here)

[Kosaku]
"All right... I'm going to go after the others, after all. But if you feel like you're in danger, yell for me as soon as you can. No matter where I am... I will come to Shiori-san's aid."​

[Shiori]
"Heh-heh... I see. I'll do that... Thank you, Kosaku-san."

Shiori-san said so gleefully and gave me a mischievous smile.

[Kosaku]
"Well... I'm going to go catch up with the others."​

I surveyed the jungle. Even though I said I'd chase the others, it was actually pretty vast.

[Shiori]
"Speaking of which, yesterday we were going to go to the beach where we were washed up... As I recall, Monica and the others were talking about it. Maybe you could meet them on the beach?"

Shiori-san suggested as if suddenly remembering it.

[Kosaku]
"Right, thank you... I'm going to go now."​

[Shiori]
"See you later... Take care so you don't get hurt."

[Kosaku]
"Yup... See ya."​

With Shiori-san seeing me off, I stepped into the jungle. I said goodbye to her and walked through the thick, dense jungle. It was as dim as yesterday, blocking my way like a thick veil of deep green. The cries of unknown animals echoed from somewhere, creating an eerie atmosphere like before.



Pushing aside the bushes, I made my way through the dense vegetation for a while, and then looked back. Already the cave area was obscured from view, hidden behind overgrown trees.

[Kosaku]
... Shiori-san said... They were heading to the beach, right?​

I remembered what Shiori-san had told me before I left. I didn't know exactly how long ago they left the cave, but it seemed that Monica, Reiko-san, and the others went to the beach.

[Kosaku]
Will I be able to catch up with everyone else by simply going straight to the beach? ... Or maybe I have a higher chance of meeting them if I go through the jungle.​

I stood there in the jungle, trying to figure out which way to go.

27-flowers.png

CHOICE

海岸にいってみる - Go to the beach
ジャングルの奥へ進む - Go deep in the jungle

(we'll leave the beach for much later and instead go into the janguru)

[Kosaku]
Right. We don't all have to be together... I'll go deeper into the jungle... If I'm lucky, I'll run into the guys at some point.​

I made up my mind and moved deeper into the jungle.

[Kosaku]
Maybe... If I go to the mountain side, I'll meet everyone.​

I remembered we all talked about it over supper, and I headed toward a dormant volcano that loomed low in the center of the island. As usual, the ivy got tangled under my feet making it awfully hard to walk. I took the knife out of my pocket and swung it around as if I were mowing through the bushes, working my way through the greenery.

I didn't know how long I've been walking... Sweat pouring onto my body, drenching my clothes and making me feel terribly sick. Wading through the ivy tangles, I must have gotten quite deep into the jungle, but so far I haven't found anything particularly unusual.

[Kosaku]
Phew...​

Come to think of it, I was starving. I knew it was too late, but... I realized that I went out into the jungle without breakfast in a hurry to catch up with everyone else.

[Kosaku]
Oh, man, that was a mistake. I should've brought some fruit at least.​

I was angry about my screw-up, but it seemed I had gone a little too far into the jungle to get back to the cave for the fruit.

[Kosaku]
Can't help it... I'll just have to endure it and move on.​

Staggering from hunger, I tried to move forward.

[Kosaku]
...? What's that smell... Is that fruit?​

I stopped and looked around hearing my stomach grunt. It was really faint, but... There was definitely a sweet fruit aroma coming from somewhere.

[Kosaku]
Could it be... Some fruit grows nearby? Let's see what I can find.​

Sniffling and snorting, I followed the faint scent of the fruit. Soon I found a small group of trees with brightly colored fruit huddled in the middle of a thick jungle.

[Kosaku]
That's... I found it.​

I ran to the nearest tree.

[Kosaku]
"Th-this is..."​

I looked up at the fruits growing in clusters on the tree and muttered to myself. The trees bore abundant fruits of unusual color giving off an indescribably sweet smell.

[Kosaku]
"Is this... Banana?"​

It looked a lot like a banana but had a bright pink color. It seemed to be a different kind of fruit altogether.

[Kosaku]
"Never seen or heard about bright pink bananas before, hmmm... I wonder if they're edible...?"​

I reached out carefully and picked a fruit from the tree. It was well-ripe and had a sweet and delicious aroma. I peeled off its skin to reveal the white pulp. It was somewhat more watery than the real banana, and the flesh seemed tender to the touch.

[Kosaku]
... *gulp*​
(ごくり - gokuri)

The sweet scent thickened more and more, provoking my stomach.

[Kosaku]
Right... Let's try a bite.​

CHOICE

食べてみる - Try it
やめておく - Don't

(this mysterious pinku banana... should i... should i, uh, eat it? hmmm?)

(okay, i'll do it)

I took a small bite of the white pulp and started chewing.

[Kosaku]
...​

It had an indescribably soft and sweet taste with plenty of moisture, which spread in my mouth.

[Kosaku]
So sweet... So sweet and delicious.​

My burning thirst was suddenly quenched... I ate another bite of the fruit without thinking.

[Kosaku]
...​

The fruits I found yesterday were no match for this. It was so sweet that it melted on the tongue, yet it had a refreshing aftertaste that filled the entire mouth. I was hungry, and before I knew it, I had eaten all of it.

[Kosaku]
... Phew.​

My hunger has subsided, and a pleasant feeling of fullness engulfed me. I let out a sigh of relief.

[Kosaku]
... Alright... let's move on.​

I left the banana trees behind and went deep into the jungle again. For a while, I just kept walking without thinking, and eventually, I found myself walking through a dense mangrove wood.

[Kosaku]
Another mangrove patch. It really does grow well on this island...​

Careful not to get stuck in the muck, I climbed over the dense mangrove roots.

[Kosaku]
Hmmm?... That's...​

Through the gaps in the mangrove roots, the overgrown shrubs laid down like they had been trampled by something, forming a narrow path.

36-jungle-path.png

[Kosaku]
It's another one... Like the one we saw yesterday.​

Yesterday, when we were in the jungle with Ayano-san, we saw the same kind of path.

[Kosaku]
I wonder... What kind of creatures are leaving this?​

With that in mind, I observed the trampled area closely.

[Kosaku]
I don't see anything... They didn't leave footprints. Speaking of that, it was on a path like this that I saw that mysterious mucous substance. What on earth was that?​

It seemed to me that this must be the trail left by some creature, but I had no idea what it was.

[Kosaku]
Well... Should I walk along the path? Animal trails are often connected to their feeding grounds. Who knows, maybe I can find food this way? But it might be a little risky. I don't know what kind of animals I could run into. What should I do?​

CHOICE

けもの道をたどる - Follow the animal path
沿わずに奥に進む - Do not do it

(we'll follow it for now)

[Kosaku]
Yeah... Let's go along the path. If I can find a good feeding ground, I might be able to find something to eat.​

It's a bit risky, but it could be easier to find food this way instead of wandering aimlessly through the jungle. I walked along the path, keeping an eye around. It was winding and weaving its way through the trees with no end in sight.

[Kosaku]
...​

You never know when, where, or what kind of creatures you'll run into... I walked along the path, carefully observing my surroundings.

[Kosaku]
...Huh?​

As I walked along the path, I noticed a tree beside me. There was something like a little spike stuck in its trunk.

[Kosaku]
What's... This? It's sharp like it had been carved out with a knife or something. Are these spikes... Organic?​

It was like the needle from a blowgun. Could there be other people on this island besides us? I took the spike gently in my hand. It had some kind of viscous liquid around it and emitted a faint odor.

[Kosaku]
What is this liquid? ... I have no idea...​

I threw the spike away and looked around unconsciously. It seemed that someone was staring at me from deep within the dark jungle. A picture of the natives from an old movie flashed through my mind.

[Kosaku]
Wait... Do cannibals live here? ... Hahaha, no way... It's not a manga.​

I couldn't help but chuckle at my thoughts. I pulled myself together and walked down the animal path again.

...*rustle*!!
(gasagasagasa - sound of rustling)

[Kosaku]
...?!​

The bushes in front of me suddenly rustled and shook.

[Kosaku]
Wh-who... Who's there?​

I grabbed the knife from my pocket and braced myself quickly.

64-jungle-path-monica.png

[Monica]
"Tosaku... Tosaku?!"

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what... Monica, is that you? Really... You scared the shit out of me..."​

[Monica]
"I'm the scared one. What the hell are you doing here?"

[Kosaku]
"I don't know what you're talking about... You all left me behind. I couldn't just sit around doing nothing, so I went after you guys."​

[Monica]
"But Tosaku wouldn't wake up no matter how much we tried... So we had no choice but to go."

[Kosaku]
"Uh... Wh-when you put it this way... W-well, fine, I guess... because I met you anyway. What about the others, by the way?... They aren't with you?"​

[Monica]
"Well, in fact... I've just gotten separated from everyone else."

[Kosaku]
"... Separated?"​

[Monica]
"That's right. Reiko and Yumi went off together back on the beach... And I got separated from Ayano and I've been looking for her."

[Kosaku]
"Separated... Where the hell was that?"​

[Monica]
"It's a short walk away from here... Just before I met you, Tosaku."

[Kosaku]
"Yup... I haven't met anyone before meeting you."​

[Monica]
"Ayano... I don't know where she is now."

[Kosaku]
"... Alright then... Let's find her first."​

[Monica]
"Yeah, you're right. If we keep looking around, I'm sure we'll see each other soon enough."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... Let's do that."​

We were looking for Ayano, who disappeared somewhere, and we stepped on the animal path.

[Monica]
"Tosaku... Do you hear that?"

[Kosaku]
"... What is it?"​

[Monica]
"It sounds like running water... What the hell is that noise?"

[Kosaku]
"You're right... I can hear it..."​

[Monica]
"It's like it's coming from the other side."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... Let's go check it out."​

Leaving the animal path, Monica and I went in the direction where we could hear the sound from.

[Monica]
"Oh... look at that, Tosaku."

[Kosaku]
"Ah... That's... A lake, huh?... How unexpected!"​

Suddenly the jungle opened up and there was a small lake surrounded by rugged rocks. A small waterfall rushed into it making a relaxing sound. Perfectly clear water was transparent and seemed to be cool.

65-waterfall.png

[Monica]
"So that's what I've been hearing... The sound of a waterfall."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... It's clean water."​

I crouched down by the water, scooped it up with both hands and washed my sweaty face.

[Kosaku]
"Phew!... It's cold and it feels so good."​

[Monica]
"You know... We could take a bath here."

[Kosaku]
"... A cold bath... Come to think of it, I'm all sticky and sweaty."​

I pinched my shirt with my fingers and tugged on it. The fabric was sticky on my skin and felt definitely unpleasant.

[Kosaku]
So... Let's take a bath, shall we?​

66-waterfall-monica.png

CHOICE

水浴びをする - Take a bath
水浴びをしない - Don't

(you know, let's not. why, you might ask? because reasons)

[Kosaku]
"Well... Let's not do that right now."​

[Monica]
"Oh, why not?"
(it'll all become clear in a moment, Monica. i promise)

[Kosaku]
"Now that we know there's a lake here, we can bring everyone else back later."​

I said as I looked up at the sky. I wanted to explore the jungle a little more before nightfall.

[Monica]
"I guess so... All right, all right. Let's get back to the animal path."

[Kosaku]
"Uh-huh... Let's go, then."​

Monica and I decided to go back to the animal path and continue onward. It continued deep into the jungle going around the lake. We walked on and on, following the path that snaked its way through the jungle trees.

36-jungle-path.png

[Monica]
"It doesn't end... How far does this thing go? This animal path?"

[Kosaku]
"I don't know... But if we keep going, we'll find out."​

As we walked further, we passed through the mangrove patch and continued on through rough and rugged terrain.

[Monica]
"*breathes heavily*... Why is it so bumpy. It's so hard to walk."

[Kosaku]
"Keep it up, Monica. There's still a long way to go... Wh-what?"​

[Monica]
"What's wrong... Tosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"This, this path... It, it ended?"​



I couldn't believe it. The path suddenly broke off in the middle of the jungle.

[Kosaku]
"That's ridiculous.... Where did it go?"​

I looked at the end of the path, but I couldn't find anything. There was only thick, dense vegetation that went on forever.

[Monica]
"What are we going to do... Tosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"What should we do... I don't know..."​

I was at my wits' end, looking around the jungle. Monica was also surveying the area.

[Kosaku]
"... Can't help it... Let's go back..."​

[Monica]
"Wait a minute... L-look at that, Tosaku!"

[Kosaku]
"... Huh?"​

67-temple.png

When I turned to look at the direction Monica was pointing to, I let out a surprised gasp. Beyond the thick jungle vegetation stood a huge, brightly colored stone pillar.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what... Is that?"​

[Monica]
"Look, it's not just that one... There's another one over there?"

Monica pointed in another direction. And there was another stone pillar like this one. The pillars stood orderly spaced at equal intervals in the dark jungle.

[Monica]
"I wonder what's going on... Here?"

[Kosaku]
"... I don't really see much from here... Let's take a closer look."​

[Monica]
"You're going to examine those pillars... Got ya."

We decided to get closer to the stone pillars.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what... Is this place?"​

When we walked up to the stone pillars, we found a huge door behind their orderly rows.

[Kosaku]
"There's a door ... Carved in that cliff?"​

The stone pillars were lined with cobblestones carved into neat squares, leading straight to the door.

[Monica]
"It's like... A temple of some kind, isn't it?"

[Kosaku]
"Right... But why is there a temple here all of a sudden..."​

The area was covered with thick grass, and the stone pillars were weathered and crumbling in some places. There was a lot of moss growing on the cobblestones, and it was extremely slippery underfoot... It seemed that no one had set foot in here for hundreds of years.

[Kosaku]
"These are the remains of an extinct ancient civilization... Are they?"​

[Monica]
"Well... This feeling..."

[Kosaku]
"What a creepy temple..."​

We looked around slowly, checking out the temple up close.

68-temple-monica.png

CHOICE

石畳を調べる - Examine cobblestones
石柱を調べる - Examine stone pillars
石扉を調べる - Examine stone door

(not really a choice, just like the one with fruit back in day 1)

CHOICE 1 - Cobblestones

Mossy cobblestones were laid out in an orderly manner, leading to a stone door like a pathway. They have been exposed to the elements for a long time and have become quite weathered, but their workmanship was superb, they were cut into precise squares and decorated.

[Kosaku]
...​

As I investigated, I noticed reddish-black stains on the cobblestones.

[Kosaku]
"Huh?... That's?"​

[Monica]
"... What's wrong?"

[Kosaku]
"This, this is... Is that blood?"​

The traces were so faint that it was hard to tell if you didn't look carefully, but there were small blood stains on the stone pavement.

[Monica]
"That's right, it is blood... It's not that old, these blood traces are very recent."

When I looked closely, I could see that the blood had fallen in dots here and there on the cobblestones, disappearing into the bushes nearby.

[Kosaku]
"There's a trail of blood... Where does it lead to?"​

I followed the trail of blood casually, sifted through the bushes and let out a startled cry.

[Kosaku]
"Th-this is..."​

[Monica]
"Wh-what is it?"

69-temple-rag.png

I found bloody, torn scraps of cloth in the bushes. I've seen it before...

[Kosaku]
"Th-that's... That's a piece of the professor's jacket!"​

[Monica]
"Ehhh... What did you say?!"

[Kosaku]
"... After all, the professor did end up on this island... And he'd come to this place alone without ever meeting us."​

[Monica]
"..."

[Kosaku]
"And here... Did something happen to the professor here?"​

I picked up that bloody piece of cloth and looked at it. The blood staining it was reddish black and completely crusted.

[Monica]
"This blood... It's all dried up, isn't it?"

[Kosaku]
"Uh huh... It's been a long time since it was spilled, hasn't it? ..."​

There was no sign left by the professor behind the bushes.

[Kosaku]
"The professor may be lying nearby... Monica, let's go look for him."​

Monica and I wandered around searching through the nearby bushes.

[Monica]
"I don't think he's around here..."

[Kosaku]
"Not here... What the hell happened to him?"​

I wondered if he's been attacked by a ferocious beast. Then again, it didn't seem like he's lost a lot of blood.

[Monica]
"What do we do now, Tosaku... Continue looking for the professor?"

[Kosaku]
"No... Let's see if we can find out more about the temple."​

I tucked the rag in my pocket and went back to the temple.

CHOICE 2 - Pillars

A number of humanoid figures with ominous expressions have been carved into the stone pillars, going up.

[Monica]
"These pillars are so disgusting... When I'm in between them, it's like they're staring at me."

[Kosaku]
"Maybe that's what they were built for, to keep people out... Anyway, let's check it out."​

I walked over to a relatively unbroken stone pillar and examined it.

[Kosaku]
"I don't know about this face, but... What the hell is that thing at the top is supposed to represent?"​

At the top of the pillar, a round object was depicted as if it were a bowl turned upside down, and below it, a figure was depicted as if it were suffering.

[Monica]
"It's a weird shape... What is it?"

[Kosaku]
"Um... Maybe a human being taken away by UFO?"​

[Monica]
"Huh? ... I'm sorry?"

[Kosaku]
"No, no... It's nothing. Hahaha... No way."​

I chuckled at the absurdity of my thoughts.

[Kosaku]
"I'm sure it's just a sign of an impending calamity or something... I don't know what that is."​

When I stared at the pillar, I had a strange feeling. I felt as if the grotesque shapes carved on it suddenly came alive to attack me, and I quickly turned away.

CHOICE 3 - Door

[Kosaku]
"Let's check that door."​

[Monica]
“All right... let's get closer to it.”

We walked slowly to the stone door, looking around. I wondered if it was carved out of the rock face of the cliff. The pillars on both sides of the door were thick enough to express a complex carved design. The heavy-looking door was taller than me and made out of a single slab of rock. It was tightly closed as if to prevent anyone from entering.

[Kosaku]
... I have no idea when it was built, but... It's very impressive.​

I touched the huge door and pushed it gently.

[Kosaku]
"Huh... Did not budge even an inch?"​

[Monica]
"It's just that... It's so massive. I wonder what's in there."

[Kosaku]
"This is a very strong door ... Something important, maybe..."​

[Monica]
"... Something important?"

[Kosaku]
"Or something dangerous..."​

Such a heavy door was meant to seal something. We stared at the huge door for a while, then gave up and turned away.

[Kosaku]
"There's nothing more to examine in here."​

[Monica]
"Well... There's still a lot I don't understand."

Leaning on a stone pillar, I thought about what we should do next. I've been feeling kind of tired for a while now.

[Monica]
"... What's wrong, Tosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"Huh? ... Oh, nothing, I've just had this little headache for some time."​

Since we got to the temple I had a slight headache, a painful throbbing around my temples.

[Monica]
"Are you all right? ... I hope you're not seriously ill."

[Kosaku]
"Haha, I'm fine... I might be a little tired, but I don't think it's anything to worry about. More importantly, what are we going to do now?"​

The cries of unidentified animals could be heard in the distance. There was silence around the temple as if an invisible force was at work. I looked up at the sky. The afternoon sun has already lost its scorching glow and was about to be replaced by the darkness of twilight.

[Kosaku]
"It's getting late... If we don't get back to the cave, we won't make it back before sundown."​

All I cared about was Shiori-san, who we left behind in the cave.

[Monica]
"Tosaku, if you're not feeling well, you should go back and get some rest... Let's go back to the cave now."

[Kosaku]
"Right... Let's get back, I guess."​

I got up, left the temple area and started to walk away.

[Kosaku]
"Wh... what?"​

[Monica]
"H-hey, Tosaku?!"

... *thud*



Just as I started walking, I was struck with sudden dizziness and collapsed to the ground.

[Monica]
"What's the matter, Tosaku?... Are you okay?"

[Kosaku]
"Aaaaaah, I'm fine... I just got a little dizzy."​

I was still light-headed. I tried to get up, but I lost my balance again, and almost fell down again, shaking. Monica rushed to help me.

[Monica]
"What's going on?... I can't believe he just collapsed..."

[Kosaku]
"I don't know... *pants heavily*... I have, I have no idea."​

My body was burning like in a fever, and I felt terribly sick. My head hurt as if it was being hit by something.

[Monica]
"You look pale, Tosaku... should we go back to the cave?"

[Kosaku]
"*pants heavily*... Shu, sure."​

[Monica]
"Are you okay? ... Can you walk?"

[Kosaku]
"Aaah... Puh-robably."​

[Monica]
"Anyway, let's get back to the cave... Hold on to my shoulder."

Monica lent me a shoulder to prop me up... Pathetic, but otherwise I couldn't walk straight.

[Monica]
"We'll be back in the cave in no time... It's going to be tough, hang in there."

[Kosaku]
"Aaaah, ahhh... Yeeeah."​

Wobbling, I grabbed hold of Monica's shoulder and started staggering forward.

... *thump-thump*
(heartbeat)

My heart was palpitating like I was having a seizure, and I felt the illusion of my whole body swelling up.

[Kosaku]
"...?!"​

The warmth of Monica's shoulder felt very stimulating. Catching glimpses of her cleavage from inside her tank top felt really seductive. A faint, sweet scent of her hair stimulated my nostrils.

[Monica]
"What's the matter... You can't walk?"

[Kosaku]
"Ahhh... No, no... It's nothing."​

When Monica asked me that, I got flustered. Despite the situation, I had a weird sexual desire growing inside me.

[Kosaku]
What's the matter with me... Dammit."​

[Kosaku]
Wooomaaan... I want a woman so badly...

I felt like I was in a fever, unable to concentrate on my thoughts, my head foggy. At the same time, my whole body was extremely sensitive to external stimuli. My manhood was already stiff and erect in my pants.

[Monica]
"Tosaku, is something seriously wrong with you? ... You're sweating like crazy..."

Without even noticing my condition, Monica gently wiped the sweat from my neck with her fingers. The soft touch of her fingers running over my skin removed the last shreds of my common sense.

[Kosaku]
"... Huff, huff... Huff, huff... Uh... Aaaaaaaaaaah!!"​

[Monica]
"Huh?... Eeeeeeek!!"

I yelled and grabbed Monica pushing her down violently on the cobblestones.

[Monica]
"Wh-wait, Tosaku!... Wh-what are you doing !!"

Ignoring Monica's panic at the unexpected event, I pulled up her tank top, grabbed her bare breasts, and roughly rubbed them.

[Monica]
"No, no... Stop it!!"

[Kosaku]
"... Huff, huff, huff, huff..."​

Monica's breasts were soft like fine marshmallows and bouncy, pushing back my fingers as I squeezed them. Her dark skin was moist, sweaty and shiny, creating a rather erotic feel. Small pink buds bloomed at the tips of her breasts.
(エロチック - erochikku. oh no, not buds blooming again. okay, i'll do my best, fellow 'dexers)

[Monica]
"No, no, no!... Stop it, Tosaku!!"

Monica was screaming at the top of her lungs and was trying to push me away with both hands. I grabbed her wrists and held them together with one hand on top of her head.

[Monica]
"Aaaaah... No, no!!"

I pressed my face against Monica's chest and licked all over her nipples slurping around...

[Monica]
"Ah... Oh..."

Her cherry blossom-colored nipples rose up. Monica writhed, shivering and bending her back.

[Kosaku]
“... Huff, huff, huff...”​

[Kosaku]
Woooman... Wooooman's body... I waaant iiiit...

My body was so hot that it burned. Only ravenous lust reigned in my mind as I lost all reason.

[Monica]
"Stop it, Tosaku!... Please! What happened to you?!"

[Kosaku]
"Wooo... Woooomaaan... Waaaant... Wooo... maaan."

...Merimerimerimerimeri!

Again, my whole body felt like it was swelling up.

[Monica]
"Huh... Tosaku?!"

My body was going through some huge changes. Purple mucous liquid started oozing from my skin, and my whole body swelled up, melting and losing its shape. Several small protrusions shot out from my abdomen and wriggled around as tentacles.

70-monica-tentacles.png

[Kosaku]
"... Gurururururururururu..."

My body had turned into a horrible, giant mollusk monster.

[Monica]
"EEEEEEEEEK!!!"

With a piercing shriek, Monica desperately struggled, breaking free from my grip. Just like a startled rabbit, she was running away from me.

[Kosaku]
"... GURURURURURURURURURU..."

Now, the only thing in my mind was the instinctive, beastly lust. I extended my hideous tentacles to reclaim my escaped prey.

...JURUJURUJURUJURUJURU!!

As Monica desperately tried to escape, my tentacles flew around her from both sides. She couldn't get away, and was quickly cornered.

[Monica]
"G-get back... Pl-please... "

With a horrified look on her face, Monica let out a faint voice. The tentacles that were a part of me swooped down on her without hesitation.

[Monica]
"NOOOOOOO!!"

...JURUJURUJURUJURUJURU!!

My wriggling tentacles wrapped around Monica's limbs, preventing her from moving. The tentacles that entered through the gaps in her clothes crawled around every inch of her body.

71-monica-hentai.png

(IN JAPANESE HENTAI...)
YOU'RE THE POKEMON
lKgmiu4.gif

[Monica]
"Ahhhh... Aaaaaah!"

Monica's voice was a mixture of despair, pain, and pleasure as she writhed violently. Her figure reminded me of a feeling of quenching your thirst.

[Kosaku]
"... GURURURURURURU..."

Giving in to the tentacles that crept in one after another, her clothes were ripped apart with an audible noise. I lifted Monica's body up and I let my tentacles enter the holes in her body, twisting and turning.

[Monica]
"Hnnn... Aguuu!"

Covered in slippery mucus, Monica kept writhing as monstrous tentacles crawled all over her body. My hungry form was filled with a sense of satisfaction. I kept devouring her body with my lust.

[Monica]
"Nnn... Fuunnn... Uuuun..."

Monica's gasping voice gradually increased in sweetness. Soon, her whole body began to twitch and convulse.

[Monica]
"... Nfuuuu!!"

Filled with intense ecstasy, Monica's body jumped up and bent her back as she ascended to heaven.

[Monica]
"...Oooooohhhhh..."

Monica's body went limp with her strength drained out. Still, I kept my grip on her, indulging more of my moving tentacles.

[Kosaku]
"...GURURURURURU..."

And at that time...

...Swoosh... Thud!

[Kosaku]
"Guaaaaa?!"

Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my body, and I let out a muffled scream that was no longer human. I didn't know where it came from, but a long spear was stuck deep in my back. Purple bodily fluid oozed out of the torn skin, staining the ground. I turned slowly in the direction the spear had come from.

72-linna-temple.png

[Voice]
"Ezu, ra, da... Rondo rondo!!"

I turned around to see a girl in a brightly colored garment in front of me. She raised her spear and shouted something, looking hostile.

[Kosaku]
"...GURURURURURU..."

Who is this girl who appeared so suddenly... That question didn't occur to me at the moment. All I felt was an animal reaction to a new, fresh prey.

[Kosaku]
"...GURURURURURU..."

I instinctively sent my tentacles to catch my newfound prey. A number of them rushed towards the girl, writhing viciously.

...JURURURURURURU!!

[Voice]
"Haaaa... Yah!!"

...Slash!

Wielding the spear, the girl slashed through the tentacles that attacked her.

[Kosaku]
"GUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!"

The pain was so intense that I retracted my tentacles reflexively. The girl followed through, cutting in hard.

[Voice]
"... Dorusa, ra, vista!"

...Smack!!

[Kosaku]
"... GUAAAAAAAAAA!!"

Her long spear pierced deeply into my body, and purple liquid gushed out of the wound in a fountain.

[Kosaku]
"...BUJURURURURURURU..."

My body fluids wouldn't stop flowing out of me. I writhed in intense pain in a sea of my own liquids. Consciousness, power, desire... All the life force poured out of my body rushing forth.

[Kosaku]
"... GURURURU... GURURURU..."

All the senses in my body were rapidly going numb. Eventually, my vision faded and I couldn't hear anything around me. In my fading consciousness, I was returning to what I was before I became a monster.

Why did I become such a monster? Who was that girl that suddenly appeared? Everything would remain shrouded in mystery, forever unknown, as I approached my final moment of existence.

But it didn't matter to me anymore. I felt only peaceful drowsiness enveloping me gently. Everyone will get to their end, it's just some a little bit earlier than the others. That's what I've been thinking.

Gradually... I lost consciousness. Before long, I was just a lump of flesh lying in a sea of my own spilled blood.

You are doing God's work, man.

I had this game find its way to me sometime in the 90s on one of those 150-games-on-a-CD discs that became popular once the format took off but most games were still distributed on floppies. It stood out like a sore thumb against the rest of the games. How a porn game ended up on a disc they sold to kids I will never know, though I guess being pirated does lower your standards for following the law. :M

Naturally I didn't know a word of Japanese and tried to find my way through it blindly. It wasn't very successful.

Once I learned of translation hooks and other advanced stuff I searched the Web far and wide to first identify and then find the game again, and find out what the hell it was about! But I couldn't get it to run on my PC, and eventually abandoned the idea.

Never thought I'd find it on Codex of all places, and a translated LP as well.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, man. Another mystery from my childhood crossed off the list. :love:

Glad to be of help :salute:. Thankfully, nowadays the whole thing is not that hard to set up with all the guides available. I'm anticipating some problems with Win95 games, though, but haven't looked into it yet. Oh yeah, and I couldn't get the PC98 CD-ROM ones to work so far.

Strap Yourselves In
PART 06: DAY 2/DAY 3 - A NICE COLD BATH SOLVES EVERYTHING

(so let's go back to where we could take a bath and take it. cold shower, after all, is the medicine to take when feeling horny)

CHOICE

水浴びをする - Take a bath
水浴びをしない - Don't

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
"All right, let's take a bath."​

I stripped off my sweat-soaked shirt and put my hands on my pants.

[Kosaku]
"Wh... What?"​

[Monica]
"H-hey, Tosaku?!"

... *thud*

Just as I began taking off my clothes, I was struck with sudden dizziness and collapsed to the ground.

[Monica]
"What's the matter, Tosaku?!... Are you okay?"

[Kosaku]
"Aaaah, sure... I'm just a little dizzy."​

I was still light-headed. I tried to get up, but I lost my balance again, and almost fell down again, shaking.

Monica rushed to help me.

[Monica]
"What's wrong?... I can't believe he just collapsed..."

[Kosaku]
"I don't know... *pants heavily*... I have, I have no idea."​

My body was burning like in a fever, and I felt terribly sick. My head hurt as if it was being pummeled by something.

[Monica]
"You look pale, Tosaku... should we go back to the cave?"

[Kosaku]
"*pants heavily*... No, no, I'm fine."​

I said as I stood there clenching my temples.

[Monica]
"Tosaku... Are you sure you're okay?"

[Kosaku]
"Aaaah... Yeah, I'm... good. "​

The pain was slowly subsiding. After a while, my headache went away and I felt completely fine again like I hadn't just collapsed.

[Kosaku]
"I, I guess I'm okay now... What the hell was that all about?"​

[Monica]
"Are you sure... You must be exhausted to collapse so suddenly."

Monica was staring at me with concern.

[Kosaku]
"I don't know... What was all that now?"​

[Monica]
"Tosaku... I think you should go back to the cave and get some rest for today."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... Right. Can't help it... Let's go back to the cave."​

Monica and I decided to go back to the cave. The jungle was already shrouded in darkness, and nocturnal animals were chirping energetically from somewhere. The afterglow of the sunset has already faded and countless stars have started to shine in the ultramarine sky. We kept walking fast through the vegetation and finally made it back to the cave.

45-cave-evening.png



[Kosaku]
"Phew... We're finally back."​

[Monica]
"We're here at last... I wonder if they're all back already."

[Shiori]
"Welcome home..."

[Kosaku]
"Ah... Here we are, Shiori-san."​

Shiori-san welcomed us on the meadow in front of the cave. When I saw the smile on her face, I felt as if my fatigue from the hard day evaporated.

51-cave-evening-shiori.png

[Kosaku]
"... I hope nothing happened to you while we were gone?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... Nothing much happened. You're both tired... So get some rest, okay?"

The light of the bonfire was flickering in front of the cave. Even though I've only lived in the cave for one day, I somehow felt a sense of warmth and security.

[Kosaku]
"By the way, Shiori-san... Is everyone else back already?"​

[Shiori]
"Ayano-san is back... Reiko-san and Yumi-chan aren't here yet."

[Ayano]
"Ah, welcome back... Kosaku."

73-cave-evening-shiori-ayano.png

[Monica]
"Hey, Ayano!... Where the heck have you been?"

[Ayano]
"Monica... So you were with Kosaku. I lost sight of you halfway through the jungle, so I came back."

[Monica]
"I'm glad you're okay, but I've been looking for you... Jeez."

[Ayano]
"Hehehe... I'm sorry."

[Kosaku]
"Reiko-san and Yumi-chan aren't back yet... It's already kinda late."​

[Shiori]
"I thought you were all working together today?"

[Monica]
"We were together... Half of the way."

[Ayano]
“At the beach, we decided to split up in two parties, so we went our separate ways from there.”

[Shiori]
"I hope they didn't have any accidents... I'm worried about them."

I looked around for a while. The whole place was already covered with jet black darkness.

[Ayano]
"Reiko-san and Yumi-chan... They could be lost in the jungle somewhere."

[Kosaku]
"No way... But I'm kinda worried."​

I had a bad feeling about it, and anxious thoughts ran rampant in my head.

[Kosaku]
"Well... Should I go and look for them?"​

CHOICE

探しにいってみる - Go look for them
探しにゆかない - Don't

(why, we certainly will. i hope i'm not spoiling the surprise, but as we all know by now, rule one of japanese vns is that night is when hentai happens)

60-flowers-night.png



[Kosaku]
"Сan't help it... I'm going to go look around."​

Succumbing to a feeling of anxiety, I decided to go find them. Something could have happened to Reiko-san and Yumi-chan.

[Ayano]
"I don't mind you looking for them, but... You won't get lost in the dark, will you, Kosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"Don't worry... I'm not going to go looking for them that far."​

[Shiori]
"Be careful... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah, I'm off now."​

I walked into the thick forest in search of Reiko-san and Yumi. Thickly growing trees blocked even the slightest moonlight and deep darkness enveloped the jungle. I looked for Reiko-san and Yumi-chan as I walked, it was so dark that I couldn't even recognize the objects a few steps ahead.

[Kosaku]
"I can't find either of them... Where have they both gone?"​

As I walked around near the cave, I looked for Reiko-san and Yumi-chan, but I couldn't find them.

[Kosaku]
"Did something happen to them after all?"​

So many unsettling guesses ran through my mind, and I couldn't stop thinking. I shook my head to get rid of them.

[Kosaku]
"Nothing I can do... I'm going back to the cave."​

Even if I were to look for them more, I didn't think I could find them in the dark and it would be dangerous, too. I decided to go back to the cave and turned in that direction.

[Kosaku]
...?​

I stopped in my tracks and listened intently to the sounds in the area. I could hear the faint sound of a woman sobbing coming from somewhere.

[Kosaku]
Th-this voice... Isn't that Yumi-chan?​

I tried to listen more closely to the voice. I could certainly hear Yumi's voice coming from somewhere in the dark jungle.

[Kosaku]
Yumi-chan... Maybe she's crying because she got hurt and can't move?​

All sorts of speculation raced through my mind in an instant.

[Kosaku]
"A-anyway... I should go look for her."​

I walked towards the direction where I could hear her voice from. I could see a place where the dark jungle had a gap in it and the moonlight was shining brightly through. Yumi's voice seemed to be coming from there.

[Kosaku]
Over there... I'm coming.​

I walked quickly to the spot and stopped abruptly.

[Kosaku]
S-something... Something is not right here...​

Mixed with Yumi's sobbing voice, I could hear Reiko's voice as if she was chuckling.

[Kosaku]
What the hell is going on here?​

I crept closer stealthily and looked in from behind the bushes.

[Kosaku]
?! ... Wh-what on earth are they doing?​

I almost cried out, but I managed to hold back and stared at the scene before me. Something incredible was happening right before my eyes.

74-yumi-hentai.png

[Reiko]
"Hehehehe... I still can't see well enough, Yumi. Spread your legs more... Get your butt up higher."

[Yumi]
"No, no... It's so embarrassing..."

It was a peculiar sight. On the meadow illuminated by the moonlight, Reiko was standing with her arms crossed while Yumi was crawling on all fours before her. With no underwear, Yumi's raised buttocks were open revealing her pristine white private parts. Reiko stood directly behind her with a wry smile on her face and looked down on her body.

[Reiko]
"Hurry up, Yumi... Or don't you want to?"

[Yumi]
"Please, Reiko-san... Don't do this anymore..."

[Reiko]
"So... You won't listen to me? If that's the case, fine... But instead..."

[Yumi]
"No, no... I'll, I'll do it. I'll raise it higher."

Sobbing, Yumi opened her legs and lifted her butt up high towards Reiko. Smiling slightly, Reiko was gazing at Yumi's naughty bits.

[Kosaku]
Wh-what in God's name is she doing?!​

Lurking in the bushes, I stared intently at the two of them breathlessly.

[Yumi]
"Aaaah... Don't look at me like that...."

[Reiko]
"Hehe, I can even see your asshole... And isn't this private area of yours moist?"

[Yumi]
"N-no..."

[Reiko]
"You say no, but you're still very wet... All this glistening moisture down there, such a naughty girl."

[Yumi]
"Th-that's not true... Don't say that... Because... Th-that's... Reiko-san..."

[Reiko]
"All right, that's enough. Now lay down on your back."

Reiko's voice, filled with amusement, echoed in the air. Sobbing and weeping, Yumi rolled over on her back like she had given up.

75-yumi-hentai.png

[Reiko]
"More... Spread your legs wide."

Reiko crouched down to peer into Yumi's crotch and grabbed Yumi's ankles, opening them wide.

[Yumi]
“Waaaah, don't looook... Puh, pleeeeease...”

Yumi let out a faint sob as if she couldn't bear the embarrassment.

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh, heh... It fits tightly. It's twitching in there... It really does feel good, doesn't it?"

[Yumi]
"No, no... Ta-take iiit baaack... Pleeeease... I'm, I'm sorry... Please forgive meee.."

[Kosaku]
What in the world do they mean by "fits" and "take it back"? Shit...​

I couldn't see the most important part with Reiko's head covering it. Reiko buried her face in Yumi's crotch with a thin smile, as if she didn't hear her pleas. She seemed to be playing with her vagina with her fingertips.

[Yumi]
"Aaaah... Stooop..."

The tone of Yumi's voice, who kept crying, changed gradually, mixing with pleasure.

[Reiko]
"Heh, if I'm right and you're a good girl, I'll remove it one day... But not right now."

[Yumi]
"Waaah... No, no... I can't stand it anymore..."

[Reiko]
"Hehe, haven't I told you before? ... You won't escape me anymore.

[Yumi]
"... Uuuuuu..."

[Reiko]
"Then you'll do as I say... Now, what should I have you do?"

Having said that, Reiko stood up and slowly pulled up her skirt, which had a slit in front.

[Reiko]
"Well, maybe you can clean up my place... Get on all fours and lick it like a dog."

[Yumi]
"...No... I'm sorry..."

[Reiko]
"... Go ahead and lick it."

Like slamming the door, Reiko cut her off.

[Yumi]
...

After sluggishly getting up with doll-like movements, Yumi gave up and slowly brought her face closer to Reiko's crotch.

76-yumi-hentai.png

[Yumi]
...

Before long, I could hear the wet slurping sound along with Yumi's sobbing voice.

[Yumi]
"...Uuuuu... Nnnnn..."

[Reiko]
"Be more thorough... Yes, lick every inch of it clean."

Grabbing her hair, Reiko made Yumi lick her crotch.

[Kosaku]
... Wh-why is Yumi-chan obeying Reiko-san? What the hell did she do to her...?​

The sound of sobbing mixed with obscenity echoed in the darkness. Looking displeased, Reiko made Yumi continue.

[Reiko]
"Not quite there yet... Lick it harder."

[Yumi]
"...Nnnnn... Nnnn..."

Yumi kept licking Reiko's crotch even as she closed her eyes tightly spilling tears.

[Yumi]
"Nnn... Nooo mooore..."

[Reiko]
"You can't... Don't stop now. Lick your way deeper."

77-yumi-hentai.png

Reiko grabbed Yumi's hair and pressed it strongly into her crotch.

[Yumi]
"Nmuuu... Nnnn... Foo-forgiveee me..."

Yumi sobbed while running her tongue over Reiko's crotch as if she couldn't take it anymore, but Reiko didn't release her hand.

[Yumi]
"Aaaaah.... Stoooop..."

... *crack*

[Reiko]
"Who?!.. Who's there!!"

The sound of a dry branch snapping, which I had accidentally stepped on, rang out loudly as I gaped at the bizarre scene.

[Kosaku]
... N-not good... What do I do...​

CHOICE

じっとしている - Stay still
一目散に逃げ出す - Run away fast

(this one is just for flavor, it seems)

CHOICE 1

I just crouched there, breathless and unable to move. My knees were trembling. I wrapped them tightly with both hands, desperately trying to stop it.

[Reiko]
"... I thought I heard something, but maybe I just imagined it?"

I heard her say that. I couldn't even look in her direction because I was so scared.

[Yumi]
"Pl-please... forgive me..."

[Reiko]
"Humph... Can't help it, really. We'd better get back to the cave or everyone will start getting suspicious, so let's just call it a night."

I heard Reiko's voice as she laughed, and then the place became quiet.

[Kosaku]
So... Nobody there now?​

I slowly peeked out of the bushes. The meadow was deserted as if what had been going on earlier was a dream.

[Kosaku]
What the hell did I just saw?​

It was like I'd dreamt it all along. My heart was still pounding.

[Kosaku]
A-anyway... I'd better get back to the cave.​

I hurried back to the cave to get ahead of Reiko and Yumi.

CHOICE 2

As soon as I heard Reiko's voice, I jumped out of the bushes and ran for my life. I rushed through the jungle in pitch-black darkness.

[Kosaku]
Sh-shiit... Shiiit...​

I ran away to the cave, and when I made sure Reiko wasn't chasing me, I broke down in a heap on the spot.

[Kosaku]
*pants heavily* What the hell did I just saw?​

It was like I'd dreamt it all along. My heart was still pounding.

[Kosaku]
A-anyway... I'll just go back to the cave and act like I didn't see anything.​

I decided to hurry back to the cave and act like nothing had happened.

(merge)

45-cave-evening.png

I returned to the cave, told the guys that I hadn't found anything, and decided to prepare my meal. I used the knife to remove the skin from one of the Akebi-like fruits and lay it on leaves like on a plate. We prepared a simple meal and after a while, we finally finished serving it for everyone.

[Kosaku]
"Phew... We're done. Now... All we have to do is wait for them to come home."​

When I looked around the scenery, I heard a rustling sound in the dark and then Yumi-chan appeared looking exhausted.

46-cave-evening-yumi.png

[Yumi]
"Ah, Kosaku-san... I'm back."

[Kosaku]
"Yu, Yumi-chan. It's so late. I was worried about you."​

[Yumi]
"Um, yeah... sorry."

[Reiko]
"I'm back, too... Kosaku-san."

47-cave-evening-yumi-reiko.png

[Kosaku]
"Re, Reiko-san... Welcome back."​

I broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that Reiko would notice the look on my face.

[Kosaku]
"I can't believe you're so late... Did something happen on the way?"​

[Reiko]
"I'm sorry... We went deep into the jungle and got lost on the way..."

[Kosaku]
"Oh, okay then... I was worried when you didn't come back, no matter how long we waited. Anyway... I'm glad you're both safe."​

Apparently, Reiko didn't seem to notice it. I felt deeply relieved.

[Kosaku]
"So, you must be tired. The food is just about ready, so let's all grab a bite."​

[Reiko]
"Thank you... I'll do that."

Unlike Reiko, Yumi-chan looked really exhausted. Now that we were all here, we finally started having a meal.

[Kosaku]
"Phew... So full."​

After a dull meal of sour fruit, I decided it was time to talk to Reiko-san about today.

[Kosaku]
"Reiko-san... Did you notice anything unusual in the jungle today?"​

[Reiko]
"No... I didn't find anything new. Yumi-san and I walked deep into the jungle..."

[Kosaku]
"... Really."​

[Reiko]
“What about you, Kosaku-san?... Did you stay at the cave with Shiori-san all day today?"

[Kosaku]
"No, I got up after everyone left, and I went after."​

[Reiko]
"Oh... Did you find anything new?"

[Kosaku]
"Hmmm, I guess so...?"​

I thought about today.

[Monica]
"Come to think of it, Tosaku, you seem to be doing quite well already."

52-cave-evening-reiko-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"Yup... I'm fine as you can see."​

[Reiko]
"What happened to you?... Kosaku-san."

[Monica]
“Tosaku just collapsed in the middle of the jungle... His face was so pale and horrible."

[Kosaku]
"I don't know what was all that about... I'm totally fine now."​

[Monica]
"... Maybe you ate something bad?"

[Kosaku]
"Umm... I don't know if it's because of that banana-like fruit."​

[Reiko]
"A banana-like fruit... Is it?"

[Kosaku]
"Mm-hmm. I found it by accident when I was walking through the jungle. It's shaped like a banana, but it's pink in color."​

[Reiko]
"Kosaku-san, did you... Eat that fruit?"

[Kosaku]
"Uh-huh... A little bit."​

[Reiko]
...

Suddenly silent, Reiko-san was staring at me intently.

[Kosaku]
"So... What's wrong?"​

[Reiko]
"No... It's nothing."

FORESHADOWING?

[Reiko]
"So ... did you find anything?"

[Kosaku]
"Umm... Yes, I found a lake in the jungle. "​

[Reiko]
"... A lake?"

[Kosaku]
"Yes, it's a beautiful lake with a small waterfall flowing into it... I found it by chance when I was with Monica."​

[Monica]
"Just when I was looking for Ayano."

[Reiko]
"Taking a cold bath in a beautiful lake... Come to think of it, I haven't even taken a bath since we got shipwrecked."

[Kosaku]
"So... Tomorrow, we'll all go for a bath."​

[Reiko]
"That's nice. I want to take a bath in it."

[Monica]
"It's decided, then... We're going to go to that lake tomorrow."

After extinguishing the bonfire, we went into the cave and settled down to sleep. Many things that happened during the day came and went in my mind.

[Kosaku]
A lot has happened today...​

A pleasant sense of exhaustion enveloped my whole body and I fell into a deep sleep before I knew it.

......

[Voice]
"Kosaku-san. Wake up, it's morning."

[Kosaku]
"... Uhhhh..."​

[Shiori]
"Good morning, Kosaku-san."

61-cave-shiori.png



[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Good morning."​

[Shiori]
"Everyone's already eating outside. Kosaku-san, you better hurry up, too."

I felt uncomfortable because my shirt was drenched with night sweat and stuck to my body. My head was drowsy like I've had a fever, my body seemed very heavy. Sluggishly, I went out of the cave.

[Ayano]
"Good morning, Kosaku... I see you've managed to get up."

78-cave-day-ayano.png

[Kosaku]
"Good morning, Ayano-san... That sounds so mean."​

When I walked out, it seemed that everyone had already had their food. I tossed pieces of fruit into my mouth and hurriedly finished my meal.

[Monica]
"Are you done eating yet?... Let's get to the lake already!"

79-cave-day-ayano-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"Alright then, let's go."​

Once we were sure everyone was accounted for, we headed into the jungle, towards the lake. Following Monica and Ayano's lead, we walked through the dense vegetation one after another.

[Ayano]
"Somehow, when we all walk like this, it feels like we're on a hike."

[Kosaku]
"You're so carefree, Ayano-san... If you're not being careful, you won't know when something happens, right?"​

[Ayano]
"Humph... I'm careful."

As we walked on, talking about nothing, a familiar path came into view. Soon after that, we made it to the lake.

[Reiko]
"Beautiful... What a beautiful place."

The lake was as crystal clear as yesterday, and the waterfall sounded just as refreshing as before.

65-waterfall.png



...

[Kosaku]
Tsk, what the... All together...​

I looked around, somewhat irritated. From the other side of the bushes, I could hear the joyful voices. There was a trail behind me running along the shore of the lake, twisting and turning.

[Kosaku]
That animal path... I wonder where does it lead to? Everyone is bathing... Shall I go check it out?​

CHOICE

調べにゆく - Check it out
調べにゆかない - Don't

(being curious and all, let's go check it out)

CHOICE 1

36-jungle-path.png

[Kosaku]
Right... Since we didn't check it out yesterday, I'm going to go there now.​

When I decided to do so, I yelled to the girls on the other side of the bushes and proceeded down the path. It continued deep into the jungle going around the lake. I walked on and on, following the path that snaked its way through the jungle trees.

[Kosaku]
It doesn't end... How far does this thing go?​

As I walked further, I passed through the mangrove patch and continued on through rough and rugged terrain.

[Kosaku]
*breathes heavily*... Why is it so bumpy. It's so hard to walk.​

(yeah, yeah, it's almost the same thing as walking it with Monica until the temple part)

[Kosaku]
... Whaaaaat? This, this path... It, it ended?​

I couldn't believe it. The path suddenly broke off in the middle of the jungle.

[Kosaku]
That's ridiculous... Where did it go?​

I looked at the end of the path, but I couldn't find anything. There was only thick, dense vegetation that went on forever.

[Kosaku]
This is hopeless... What should I do ...​

I was at my wits' end, looking all around the jungle.

[Kosaku]
"... Huh? Wha... What's that?"​



I let out a surprised gasp involuntarily. Beyond the thick jungle vegetation stood a huge, brightly colored stone pillar.

67-temple.png

[Kosaku]
Wh-what's th-that... There's another one over there?​

There was another stone pillar like this one. The pillars stood orderly spaced at equal intervals in the dark jungle.

[Kosaku]
"I wonder what's going on... Here? I don't really see much from here... Let's take a closer look."​

I decided to get closer to the stone pillars.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what... Is this place?"​

When I walked up to the stone pillars, I found a huge door behind their orderly rows.

[Kosaku]
"There's a door ... Carved in that cliff?"​

The stone pillars were lined with cobblestones carved into neat squares, leading straight to the door.

[Kosaku]
It's like a temple of some kind, isn't it?... Why is there a temple here all of a sudden...​

The area was covered with thick grass, and the stone pillars were weathered and crumbling in some places. There was a lot of moss growing on the cobblestones, and it was extremely slippery underfoot. It seemed that no one had set foot in here for hundreds of years.

[Kosaku]
"These are the remains of an extinct ancient civilization... Are they? What a creepy temple..."​

俺は神殿の細部を調べるように、あたりをゆっくりと見まわした.
I looked around slowly, checking out the temple up close.

(and that's where the interesting part starts)

[Voice]
"... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-who's there?! Re, Reiko-san... Reiko-san, isn't it?"​

I was ready for anything, but it was Reiko who appeared from the bushes.

80-temple-reiko.png

[Kosaku]
"What's the matter with you... Are you all alone?"​

[Reiko]
"Yes... That's right."

Reiko said that with a somewhat detached smile.

[Reiko]
"May I have a word with you? ... I'd like to ask you about something, Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"Ask me?... About what?"​

I said, somewhat defensively, with a strange premonition.

[Kosaku]
Maybe... Maybe that damn Reiko knows I was spying on her?​

[Reiko]
"It's hard to talk about it here... Let's go this way."

Although her voice was soft, she started walking away not caring if I followed her or not. I had no choice but to follow her.

[Reiko]
"What I want to ask you is this..."

81-reiko-tree.png

Sitting on a fallen tree a short distance away from the temple, Reiko looked up at me, crossed her legs provokingly, and started talking. The slit of her tight skirt split open, revealing a seductive white inner thigh. Her cleavage was very tantalizingly peeking out over the edge of her blouse. I was somewhat bewildered by the boldness of the gesture, which was unlike her at all.
(タイトスカート - literally taitosukatto)

[Reiko]
"Kosaku-san... You said yesterday that you ate a banana-like fruit in the jungle, is that right?"

[Kosaku]
"Eh? ... Y, yes. I did eat it, but... What about it?"​

[Reiko]
"No big deal... It's nothing important... I wonder if it agrees with your body."

[Kosaku]
"M-my body?... What do you mean, agrees with my body?"​

Without answering my question, Reiko made a gesture like she was thinking about it. Her unusual delays in speaking gave me a very peculiar feeling.

[Reiko]
"I hope it doesn't hurt anywhere... I'm sorry if I'm being weird."

Nodding her head in agreement to herself, Reiko deflected the subject.

[Reiko]
"Ah... It's so hot here, isn't it?"

While saying this, Reiko pinched the shirt on her bosom and made it flap to fan her body. Each time, her ample cleavage was exposed deeply and my gaze was glued to it.

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... What is it you're looking at, Kosaku-san?"

82-reiko-close.png

While noticing my stare, Reiko didn't seem at all embarrassed by it, but instead smiled enticingly and flapped her shirt to show off her chest. The dizzying image of the soft cleavage between her moist breasts was burning into my eyes. My heart pounded like a bell, its palpitations tightening my chest. I was starting to feel a headache around my temples again.

[Reiko]
"Is something wrong... With my body?"

Reiko unbuttoned her shirt and reached inside, lifting her breasts in the palm of her hand. Wrapped in pale purple underwear, her full bosom was exposed.

[Reiko]
"Well?... Is it strange somewhere?"

[Kosaku]
"Uuu... Um..."​

When I finally managed to squeeze that much out of my dry throat, I shook my head. My head was foggy and my thoughts were so badly out of focus.

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... If you want to touch it, you can do so."

[Kosaku]
"... *gulp*"​

I gulped involuntarily. I lost all sense of reality from the scene in front of me as if I was in a daze. Reiko took my hand in hers and slowly guided it to her own chest.

[Reiko]
"... *sigh*!"

As soon as my fingertips touched her, Reiko let out a sigh. The feel of her chest, soft as a marshmallow, filled my palm.
(マシュマロ - mashumaro... oh shit, wait, i know where this is going)

[Reiko]
"Well?... Is it soft?"

Reiko whispered sweetly while looking at me with her slightly moist eyes. My body was burning and my head was clouded. I just moved my hand like a puppet, indulging in the softness of her breasts.

[Reiko]
"... Nnnnn"

Reiko moaned in satisfaction and stretched out her arms to hug my waist.

[Reiko]
"You are so cute... Kosaku-san. Here... I've made you so hard."

Burying her face in my crotch, Reiko rubbed her cheek over and over against my hard, erect member.

[Kosaku]
"Uhhhhhhhhh..."​

With the rubs of her soft cheek, my manhood bent backwards like a katana, and my hips trembled with pleasure. A guttural beastly grunt came out of my throat. Reiko slowly pulled down my pants and took out my rigid phallus.
(yes, like a katana)

83-reiko-blowjob.webp

[Reiko]
"...Nnnn"

I groaned loudly again as I felt the moist, warm sensation envelop me. Her lips swallowed my shaft all the way to the root.

[Kosaku]
"... Uhhhh"​

The soft tip of her tongue crawled around every inch of my cock, giving a numbing pleasure to the core of my body.

[Reiko]
"... Nnnnn"

Rocking her head back and forth, Reiko squeezed my cock with her lips and stimulated my balls with her fingertips. My tool was about to explode, throbbing and pulsing.

[Reiko]
"Nnnng... Lovely, Kosaku-san."

Reiko whispered as she stimulated my dick with her fingertips and tongue. My heart was pounding so hard my chest was going to break through. A tingling sensation went through my body like lightning to the core. I was already about to explode.

[Reiko]
"... Kosaku-san, you can come."

Reiko, keenly sensitive to my reaction, quickened the movement of her lips as she said it. As if inspired by her voice, I slammed it into her mouth and released what was accumulated.

[Kosaku]
"...Uuuun!"​

White, sticky liquid oozed from Reiko's lips dripping on her throat. Still, she continued, engrossed, without a care.

[Reiko]
"...Nnnn"

Even though I've just released semen, my cock didn't deflate, it swelled up even bigger for more pleasure.

... *thump-thump*!!

I felt wrapped up in violent palpitations. A strange power was bubbling up from inside of me, and it was starting to change my body.

[Kosaku]
"... Uoooooooo!!"

... *thump-thump*!!

A scream that had nothing to do with my will erupted from my body. A fierce desire started to take over me.

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh, heh... It seems that it started."

Taking her mouth off my cock, Reiko giggled, as if she knew something.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what?! ... My b-body..."​

My body was starting to change with intense pain. A beastly desire dominated my mind, driving away human reason.

[Kosaku]
"... Guuu....aaaa!!"

...Merimerimerimeri.

My body was losing its form as if it were melting. Long tentacles sprouted from my flesh, twisting and undulating.

[Kosaku]
"... GUOOOOOOOOO!!"

With a piercing roar echoing around, my body transformed into a horrible monster.

[Kosaku]
"... GURURURURURURURU..."
(he's back at it again)

80-temple-reiko.png

[Reiko]
"Hehehehehe... What a revolting thing you've turned into."

Reiko laughed coldly as she stared at me turning into a monster.

[Reiko]
"Do you want to hear why this happened to you? But I'm sure it's of no use... Because you don't have any humanity left."

[Kosaku]
"... GURURURURURURURU..."

Reiko was right, I had very little left of my human soul. Only the beastly desire dominated my mind, wanting to assault this woman.

[Kosaku]
Woooman... Wooooman's body...

[Kosaku]
"... GURURURURURURURU..."

I stretched out the tentacles that sprouted from my body and tried to attack Reiko.

... Shaaaaaaa!!!

...Zashu!!

I screamed as several spears shot out of the grass and pierced my body. Before I knew it, I was surrounded by masked men.

[Kosaku]
"... GUOOOOOOOO?!"

Were the spearheads coated with poison? ... My body wouldn't move as I wanted it to.

[Reiko]
"That's good... Capture him."

I heard Reiko calmly instructing the men. Gradually, I lost consciousness... I was bound in some kind of net, and the men carried me away.

...

I don't know how long it's been since I was locked up in that dark cell.

... GURURURURURURURU...

84-end11.png

There's prey for me in the cell. Except for the occasional man coming into my cell and injecting me with some strange medicine, I lived every day devouring the prey over and over again. Outside the cell, I heard someone talking. But I didn't catch the voices as conversation, only a mere noise, not recognized by my consciousness.

(voices are actually unmarked in the original but i did that for better readability)

[Voice 1]
"So... How's the test subject..."

[Voice 2]
"I guess it was a failure... It appears to have little to no human consciousness."

[Voice 1]
"Hmm... It's not very promising."

[Voice 2]
"You've already made the next prototype, haven't you?"

[Voice 1]
"I've exhausted most of the data from that one, so why don't we try a new test specimen?"

[Voice 2]
"Right... But we'll have to get a new man again."

[Voice 1]
"Don't worry... If we lure them with money, we'll find one soon enough."

[Voice 2]
"Hmm, I suppose... Then, let's proceed with that."

[Voice 1]
"Well then, I'll make arrangements right away... What's our next step with this one?"

[Voice 2]
"Regrettably, we cannot leave it as it is... It will be an inconvenience if it gets out on a rampage. Please, dispose of it."

[Voice 1]
"I understand... Well, then..."

The sound of their footsteps echoed coldly in the corridor as they walked away. But I didn't think anything of it, I just stretched my tentacles and gorged on the prey set on the table.

[Voice]
"Nnnnn... Aaahhhh"

The live prey raised its voice in anguish... But that voice was the best part of my meal.

... GURURURURURURURU...

I let out a satisfied groan and continued to indulge in it. Eventually... Not knowing that I'll be disposed of by the professor and his assistant who changed me into this...

I am on the 2nd update (it's slow going), but I have a comment.

From the upate:
[Kosaku]
"Well.. in a place like that you don't know what danger is about."

I said that while restlessly looking all around us. The dense jungle had an eerie atmosphere that made it easy to see what came at us at any time.
(蒼としたジャングルは、いつ何が出てきてもおかしくないような不気味な雰囲気をたたえている. - shywn, this one's a pita, too)
It means: "The dense jungle had an eerie atmosphere that made it seem as if anything could jump out at us at any moment," or something to that effect. The exact wording is closer to "it wouldn't be strange/surprise me if something came at us at any moment".
He is unsettled and wants out.

[Kosaku]
"Yeah, that's why I'm going to divide us into three groups of two."

[Monica]
"What do you mean?"

[Kosaku]
"Now, there are six people in total, including me. It's better to divide us into two groups to do both of these tasks by sunset. It's more efficient than going all together, I think."
There is some confusion because he talks about three teams (two search the jungle, one scouts the shoreline), but the next phrase only mentions two groups, and two tasks. It might be better to refer to groups as "pairs" to avoid confusion.
"It's better to divide us into pairs to do both of these tasks by sunset."

Strap Yourselves In
PART 07: MENOMAEGAMAKKURANINARI

調べにゆく - Check it out
調べにゆかない - Don't

(this time let's not be adventurous and just take a bath like everyone else)

65-waterfall.png

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
No, if I suddenly vanish... Won't everyone be worried? Right, well... Let's take a bath for now.​

On second thought, I decided to take a bath, took off my clothes, and jumped into the lake.

...*splash*!!
(zaban)

[Kosaku]
"Phewww... The water is cold and it feels so good."​

It felt so refreshing when the sweat and dirt that had been stuck to my body slowly washed off of it. I soaked my whole body in the water, scrubbing all over and rinsing off any lingering dirt.

......

I washed my body thoroughly, soaked in water for a while, and then slowly went out.

[Kosaku]
"Phew, so invigorating."​

I rinsed my sweaty, sticky clothes briefly, then squeezed them hard and put them back on again.

[Kosaku]
What are the others doing... I wonder if they're still bathing. I said I'd call them before going back, but... Girls take their time with these things.​

I sat there for a while, waiting, but they never showed up. I began to feel more and more uneasy. It was so quiet around the lake that I couldn't hear a single sound.

[Kosaku]
"There's something wrong... Let's take a peek."​

Pushing aside the bushes, I tried to make my way towards the others.



[Voice]
"... EEEEEEEEEEEEK!!"

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-what's that?!"​

Suddenly, a piercing scream echoed around the lake.

[Kosaku]
"J-just now... Was that Ayano-san's voice?"​

[Monica]
"Tosaku!!... Ayano's in trouble!!"

Monica yelled when she spotted me peeking out of the bushes. I heard the sound of water splashing around and turned my attention to the lake.

[Ayano]
"NOOOOOOO!!"

[Kosaku]
"A-ayano-san?!... What the hell?!"​

85-ayano-tentacles.png

I couldn't believe my eyes... Several black tentacles burst from the lake, splashing and trying to assault Ayano-san.

[Ayano]
"... H-help meee!!"

[Kosaku]
"Ruuun... Run away, Ayano-san!!"​

One after another, tentacles shot out of the lake and flew through the air to surround Ayano-san, who was trying to escape.

[Kosaku]
"A-ayano-san... This way, quick!!"​

Whether frightened or caught up in the water, she couldn't run as fast as she needed to.

[Ayano]
"Nooooo... Somebody, help me!!"

Wriggling wildly to catch its prey, black tentacles ensnared the desperately trying to escape Ayano-san.

[Ayano]
"Eeeeeeek?!"

[Kosaku]
"... A-ayano-san!!"​

One after another, many tentacles wrapped around her body as she tried to push them away shrieking.

[Ayano]
"Aaaaah... Nooooo...?!"

Despite her best efforts, the tentacles kept coiling around her relentlessly. Her body was slowly lifted into the air as her arms and legs were entangled, unable to move.

[Ayano]
"Aaah... Aaaaah..."

Lifting her body high in the air, the wet tentacles were crawling all over. Like a nightmarish penis, the tip of the tentacle has thrust into Ayano's face.

[Ayano]
"... Hnn...!"

Just barely managing to turn her face away, Ayano caught a wad of cloudy viscous liquid, released from the pulsing tentacle, and it ran down her cheek.

[Ayano]
"... Uuuu..."

86-ayano-tentacles2.png

Ayano's body, who had been struggling so hard until then, suddenly became weak, and she passed out. As she went limp, her legs were slowly spread open and the slimy tentacles crawled towards the base of her inner thigh.

[Kosaku]
"A-ayano-san!... Damn, I have to do something!!"​

[Monica]
"Ah... T-tosaku!"

I jumped into the lake, pulled out my knife, and ran to Ayano.

[Kosaku]
"Monster!... Release her!!!"​

I swung the knife up and slashed at the tentacles coiled around Ayano's body.

...Zupa!!!

The tentacles that I cut writhed in pain, splashing purple fluid everywhere, and left Ayano's body.

[Kosaku]
"Take that... And that, and that!!!"​

I swung the knife around, frantically slashing at the tentacles. However, new ones came out of the lake one after another and tried to coil around Ayano's body.

[Kosaku]
"Kuh... They keep coming!!"​

More and more tentacles were coming at me. Suddenly, I got swept off my feet and fell into the water.

... *splash*!!

[Kosaku]
"...Ga, gabo...!"​
(don't know what that sound is)

Tentacles wrapped around my legs and I couldn't stand up. I struggled desperately in the water.
(come to think of it, i've never actually seen gay tentacle porn... and i have no wish to)

[Kosaku]
(!? Th-there!!)​

Wrestling with the tentacles around my body, I saw a black lump floating in the water, all the swaying tentacles seemingly extended from it.

[Kosaku]
(Oh, so that's what its body is...?!)​
(they've used the word 正体 shoutai here, which translates as "true form" or "origin". initially, i used the word "core", but then decided to simply go with the "body")

I finally shook off the tentacles coiling around me and stood up again.

[Kosaku]
"Phew!!!... *pants heavily*..."​

... Zazazazazaza!!!

Following me, the monster also rose up to the surface, revealing its glistening, slimy, black and eerie body.

[Kosaku]
D-damn monster... It's no use unless I cut the body.​

As I slashed through the tentacles that flew at me one after another, I tried to get closer to the body of the creature. But I couldn't do it, blocked by the tentacles that were constantly attacking me.

[Kosaku]
"*breathes heavily*... Damn, what should I do..."​

When I was out of breath, the tentacles grabbed my neck from behind.

[Kosaku]
"Ugu!!... Sh, shiiit..."​

The tentacles tightened around my neck with tremendous power. The knife slipped out of my hand before I knew it.

[Kosaku]
"Ffff... ffffuuuuuccccckkkk..."​

I used all my strength to try and remove the tentacles around my neck, but they dug so deep into my throat that I couldn't even breathe.

[Kosaku]
"... Fffuuu..."​

I saw haloes around my vision, and my consciousness began to drift away. The sounds around me were drowned out by the ringing in my ears, and I couldn't hear anything anymore.
(hareshon - halation)

[Kosaku]
... It, it's over... A-ayano-san...​

My vision went completely dark and I almost lost consciousness. Then, all of a sudden, the tentacles around my neck came loose, and I was thrown into the lake.
(目の前が真っ暗になり is pronounced as MENOMAEGAMAKKURANINARI and translated as: (1) to lose hope; (2) to be plunged into darkness. this sounds so fucking badass, i wanna use it somewhere, like evil monks throat chanting a spell or something)

...Bashan!!!

[Kosaku]
"*cough* *cough*... *pants wildly*... Wh, what happened?"​

Gasping for air, I looked at the monster.

[Kosaku]
"...Huh?"​

... Shaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

... Zazaza...
(i leave what these mean to your imagination)

The monster squirmed and writhed in agony as it sank into the water. The tentacles that were entangled with Ayano's body also receded into the water giving up. Leaving only purple fluid on the surface, the black shadow disappeared into the lake.

[Kosaku]
"... *pants heavily* ... Are you alive...?"​

I held the unconscious Ayano in my arms and climbed onto the shore.

[Monica]
"Tosaku, are you okay?!"

66-waterfall-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"Aaah, yeah... Somewhat."​

Monica and Shiori-san rushed to Ayano's unconscious body to take care of her.

[Kosaku]
"What the hell was that thing?"​

[Monica]
"I don't know... We were on the shore and suddenly I heard Ayano's screams and then the monster was there."

Monica shrugged and shook her head as if to tell me not to ask more.

[Kosaku]
“I thought we were done for... But that creature withdrew suddenly and we were saved. Why did that monster stop attacking us all of a sudden?"​

[Monica]
"A spear came flying from somewhere and struck it."

[Kosaku]
"... A spear?"​

[Monica]
"I couldn't see who threw it, but... When Tosaku got caught, it flew from the other side of the lake and impaled the monster."

[Kosaku]
"Rescued just like that, huh... Anyway, who the hell was it? Wait... You think maybe one of the natives came to our rescue?"​

[Monica]
"I don't know... But I'm glad you're okay."

[Kosaku]
"Erm?... Come to think of it, where's Reiko-san and Yumi-chan?"​

I looked around and noticed that they were nowhere to be seen.

[Monica]
“Eh?... N-now that you mention it... I thought they were here just now?"

As she realized it, too, Monica stood up and looked around uneasily. But the two of them were nowhere to be seen.

[Monica]
"They're not here... I can't believe they're both just gone! Tosaku... What should we do?"

Monica asked me as she looked around anxiously. Shiori-san looked uneasy too.

[Kosaku]
"Right..."​

CHOICE

Reiko達を探す - Look for Reiko
洞窟に戻る - Return to the cave

(what to do, what to do... i'll let you guys decide)

CHOICE 1

I looked at Ayano as she lay there. She still hasn't regained consciousness. For the time being, I thought we should go back to the cave and take care of her.

[Kosaku]
"I'll go look for Reiko-san and Yumi-chan... Monica, you and Shiori-san, take Ayano-san back to the cave."​

[Monica]
"Okay... we'll go ahead to the cave."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... I'm worried about Ayano-san. Do it right away."​

Monica has put unconscious Ayano on her back and started walking away with Shiori-san.

[Shiori]
"Kosaku-san... Be careful."

[Kosaku]
"Yes... I rely on both of you. Now, I gotta find those two."​

俺はReiko-sanとYumiちゃんを探して、密林の中を歩きだした.
I started moving through the jungle in search of Reiko-san and Yumi-chan.

...

I wandered aimlessly through the lush vegetation, looking for them.

[Kosaku]
Shit... where are they?​

Finding two missing people in the dense jungle was not going to be easy. I made my way through the jungle with a feeling of urgency in my heart.

[Kosaku]
... Huh?​

[Kosaku]
"Wha... What's that?"​

I let out a surprised gasp involuntarily. Beyond the thick jungle vegetation stood a huge, brightly colored stone pillar.

[Kosaku]
Wh-what's th-that... There's another one over there?​

(yeah, we find Reiko in the temple and that's the end of that. the main difference is that this time we're allowed to investigate it, just like way back with Monica)

84-end11.png

END No11

CHOICE 2

GO TO UPDATE 08 (skip to the words "洞窟に戻る - Return to the cave")

(moving on)

(to actually progress, we need to go back to that fateful choice of eating the pinku banana on day 2 and refrain from it)

DAY 2

(while we're at it, why not go to the shore instead of the janguru while we have the chance)

27-flowers.png

CHOICE

海岸にいってみる - Go to the beach
ジャングルの奥へ進む - Go into the jungle

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
Right... Even though they have a good lead, they still walk like girls. Maybe I can catch up with them on the beach. All right, let's go there.​



I decided to follow them to the beach and started walking in that direction.

......

18-shore.png

I finally made it to the shore through the dense jungle. It looked as clear and nice today as it was yesterday. The sky was fully blue, with midsummer clouds hovering over it. A deep blue horizon stretched out in front of me. The sun was soaring high in the sky. I've been walking through the dense, dark jungle for a while now, and the scorching sunshine was blinding my eyes.
(沖天 - this word translates as "rising into heavens". i wonder how it would be best to translate that leaving the original most intact)

I squinted unconsciously and looked around. I searched for people all along the shoreline, resenting the glare of the white sand. But there was no sign of anyone anywhere.

[Kosaku]
There's no one here. Have they all gone into the jungle already?​

Shiori-san said they were all heading for the beach, but I guess it was a mistake. Otherwise, I may have passed them while I've been making my way through the jungle.

[Kosaku]
What to do... Should I go back to the jungle?​

I was hoping that if I got to the beach, I'd be able to join everyone right away, but I hadn't thought about what to do if they weren't there.

[Kosaku]
I'm in trouble... What should I do?​

Once again, I slowly looked around to make sure.

[Kosaku]
Hmm... What's that?​

I looked closely at the beach and noticed a series of footprints on the white sand. Judging by their number, they probably belonged to Monica and the others.

[Kosaku]
What the... I guess they did go to the beach.​

From the dryness of the sand in the footprints, I could tell that it hadn't been long since they had walked here.

[Kosaku]
All right, let's follow these footprints.​

Once on the beach, I started following the footprints. They continued far along the shoreline. The heat of the sand spread to the soles of my feet through the shoes. Their inside gradually got stuffy, and my feet became unbearably hot. Picking a wet part near the water's edge, I walked down the beach.

As I walked along, I noticed some sort of object washed up in the sand. Apparently, the wreckage of our ship was brought ashore sometime last night.

[Kosaku]
There's a lot of stuff here. Maybe... There might be something in there that we can use. I'll see what I can find.​

I strolled along the shore, searching for things that were washed up.

[Kosaku]
Oh... What's that?​

The leather attaché case floated on the water's edge. The antique design of the case was familiar to me.
(atasshukesu and antikuna dezain)

[Kosaku]
I'm pretty sure... It belongs to the professor.​

The case was badly damaged all over due to the storm and partly open. Most of its contents seemed to have been washed away, it was like an empty box. I grabbed the case, which was about to be swept away by the waves, and opened it up on the beach.

[Kosaku]
There's nothing in there... Most of the contents have been washed away.​

Only drenched in seawater notebook was left inside. I picked it up and flipped through the wet and sticky pages.

[Kosaku]
All the ink is blurry... I can't read a thing.​

Reluctantly, I stopped trying to read it and put the notebook back in the case.

[Kosaku]
...?​

A piece of paper sticking out from between the pages caught my eye.

87-photo.png

[Kosaku]
Is this... A photo of the professor?​

The photo seemed to be taken when the professor went on a research trip. It was probably a snapshot of the location. He did not seem to notice the camera at all and was staring off the frame into the distance.

[Kosaku]
I wonder... Who this is?​

My attention was drawn to the figure next to the professor. A cool-looking young man with slit eyes was standing beside him.

[Kosaku]
I wonder if he's the professor's assistant... Could it be someone who had been an assistant before Reiko-san? If that's the case, this must be a very old photo. I'll keep it for now. I'll show it to Shiori-san or Reiko-san and they'll know.​
(except Shiori can't see shit, but nevermind)

I put the photo in my pocket. The footprints continued along the beach. I followed them some more while rummaging through the washed-up wreckage.

Further along, the footprints on the beach suddenly split into two groups.

[Kosaku]
... Oh-oh? So... This is where they all split up?​

One of the footprint sets turned into the jungle, while the other continued farther through the sand.

[Kosaku]
Which way am I supposed to go?​

CHOICE

足跡ジャングルに向かっている - Follow footsteps into the jungle
足跡海岸をまっすぐ進んでいる - Follow footsteps along the shore

(the first choice is, if you remember, leads us to the pinku banana choice, but otherwise, they both merge at the animal path. so, for the sake of completeness, let's stay on the beach)

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
"Let's follow these footsteps."​

Once again I followed the footsteps heading straight down the beach. They went on and on on the white sand. The midsummer sun was beating down on me, and combined with the glare of the sand, it was very hot.

[Kosaku]
It's like being in a toaster oven... I'm going to get cooked.​

I walked along the beach, sweating profusely.

[Kosaku]
Dammit, how far does it go... Why are they still walking along the shore?​

As I began to think about it... The footprints suddenly broke off the beach and disappeared into the jungle.

22-shore-bushes.png

[Kosaku]
Oh... Is this place...? I've seen this place before... Isn't that where we found the lifeboat yesterday?​

That was the same place where we found the lifeboat yesterday. There were still clear drag marks on the sand where the boat was dragged. The footprints have passed right through there and disappeared straight into the jungle.

[Kosaku]
Come to think of it, I recall us leaving the lifeboat here.​

With that in mind, I casually looked for the lifeboat.

[Kosaku]
... Huh? The boat is gone... Was it really here?​

I walked up to the bushes where the boat was. The bushes were still down indicating that the lifeboat was indeed there before, but now it was nowhere to be seen. Even though it was just a lifeboat, it was large enough that it would take five adults to carry it normally. Even if it were folded up, it would still take two to do it.

[Kosaku]
Where the hell did it go... Don't tell me they carried it with them. It's pointless to speculate... I'll follow them for now. Maybe they know about it.​

With a sigh, I pushed aside the bushes and entered the jungle again. As soon as I stepped into it, the footprints disappeared, and I proceeded through the dense vegetation, relying only on my intuition.

[Kosaku]
Perhaps... If I go to the mountainside, I'll meet them.​

(i've to note that this section starting from the beach/jungle choice is heavy on lines containing only ellipses, signifying that Kosaku is taking a lot of time to walk, but I've started to remove them for the most part to make for easier reading)

I remembered that we all talked about it over supper, and I headed towards the dormant volcano that loomed low in the middle of the island. The ivy was still tangled underfoot making it terribly hard to walk.

(and this is the place where i'll start skipping chunks of text since a lot of it is repeats with no changes. in this case, it's a chunk of Kosaku going through the woods until he finds the animal path)

36-jungle-path.png

CHOICE

けもの道をたどる - Follow the animal path
沿わずに奥に進む - Do not do it

(we'll still go along the animal path this time. choice two leads us to the temple and with no pulsating pinku banana of lust in our bowels, it's the usual temple investigation with meeting the mysterious girl afterwards)

(this choice starts as usual, Kosaku walks along the path, finds the blowgun spike, but then...)

[Kosaku]
?... I can hear the sound of water.​

As I walked along the path, I noticed that I could hear the faint noise of running water from somewhere.

[Kosaku]
Where the hell is it coming from?​

I went off the animal path, towards the sound of water. Suddenly the jungle opened up, and there was a small lake surrounded by rugged rocks.

[Kosaku]
Ah... That's... A lake, huh?... How unexpected!​

65-waterfall.png

A small waterfall rushed into the lake making a relaxing sound. Perfectly clear water was transparent and seemed to be cool.

[Kosaku]
So that's what I've been hearing... The sound of a waterfall.​

I crouched down by the water, scooped it up with both hands, and washed my sweaty face.

[Kosaku]
Phew!... It's cold and it feels so good.​

I looked around, feeling like I'd come back to life.

[Kosaku]
Huh?... That's where they were...​

89-girls-bathing.png



[Ayano]
"Eeeek!... Stop that, Monica!... Come on, it's freezing!!"

[Monica]
"Ahahahaha... If it's so annoying, why don't you fight back?"

[Ayano]
"You said it... I'm not going to hold back. Take that!"

[Monica]
"NO, Ayano!... It was a joke, a joke!"
(joku yo, joku)

[Ayano]
"Too late to say that!!"

[Monica]
"Eeeek!... Fuh-freezing!!"

[Ayano]
"...Ahahahaha!"

[Kosaku]
Over there... I think that's Monica and Ayano.​

Monica and Ayano were in the shallow part of the lake. They were happily playing with each other in the water.

[Kosaku]
Tsk... They've left me behind, and now they're goofing around like children.​

I looked around feeling somewhat disgruntled. No other people were in the lake. It looked like they were the only two bathing.

[Kosaku]
Reiko-san and Yumi-chan aren't here?...​

Right, they parted ways on the beach. I remembered how the footprints were divided on the beach, and I was convinced.

[Kosaku]
Well... I'll go call them.​

They were having so much fun, they still didn't notice my presence.

[Kosaku]
...I wonder what should I do?​

CHOICE

素直に声をかける - Be honest and call them
悪戯っ気を起こす - Cause mischief

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
Well... I'll just give them an honest shout.​

[Kosaku]
"Hey!... Monica, Ayano-san!!"​

[Monica]
"Eh?... EEEEEEK, Tosaku?!"

[Ayano]
"Oh no!... What's Kosaku-kun doing here!?"

...*splaaash*!

When I called out to them, they both turned around in surprise, screamed, and hurriedly ducked into the water.

[Ayano]
"K-kosaku-kun... How long have you been here?"

[Kosaku]
"How long, huh... Only a few minutes?"​

[Ayano]
"No way, you pervert!... You've been watching from there all along!"

[Kosaku]
"I-it's not like I was watching you. I just ran after everyone, and then I stumbled upon you two in the water."​

[Monica]
"A-anyway, we're getting out of the water... Don't turn your head for a while!"

[Kosaku]
"Tsk... Okay, I get it."​

[Ayano]
"I'll be right up... Don't look at me."

I heard Ayano's voice with the sound of splashing water. Both of them were probably trying to get to the shore in a hurry.

[Kosaku]
Pfft... Why the hell do I have to be treated like a voyeur? If they were going to say that to me anyway, I should have joked around with them a little.​

Feeling hurt, I mumbled to myself... With my back to the lake, I waited for the two of them to get dressed.

......

[Monica]
"Sorry to keep you waiting. It's okay now... Tosaku."

CHOICE 2

[Kosaku]
"Right... I'll surprise them."​

A want of childish mischief rose up inside of me. Hiding in the bushes, I quickly stripped off my clothes and dove gently into the lake so that they wouldn't notice. I swam up underwater to the two of them... Their lower bodies were standing out in the water.

[Kosaku]
That little bum over here is Ayano... And those voluptuous thighs over there must be Monica.​

I kept swimming, and when I got in between them, I jumped out of the water at once.

...*splash*!

[Kosaku]
"...Pheeeeew!!"​

[Ayano]
"Huh... EEEEEEEEEK!!"

[Monica]
"Eek!... W-what the hell!"

[Kosaku]
"Wahahahahahaha... Got you?"​

[Monica]
"...Tosaku?!"

[Ayano]
"K-kosaku-kun! ...Not a chance, I'm not scared!!"

The two of them were quite startled to see me jump out of the blue. Frozen like dolls for a second and staring at me, they hurriedly ducked into the water.

[Ayano]
"W-where the hell did you come from? ... What are you even doing here?"

[Kosaku]
"What, huh... I was chasing after you guys and I saw you two bathing, I thought I'd give you a little surprise."​

[Ayano]
"No way, you pervert!... You've been spying on us all this time!"

[Kosaku]
"D-don't be ridiculous... I didn't do anything like that."​

[Monica]
"A-anyway, we're getting out of the water... Don't turn your head for a while!"

[Kosaku]
"Tsk... Okay, I get it."​

[Ayano]
"I'll be right up... Don't look at me."

I heard Ayano's voice with the sound of splashing water. Both of them were probably trying to get to the shore in a hurry.

[Kosaku]
Pfft, I only scared her a little... There's nothing to get mad about.​

Feeling hurt, I mumbled to myself... Trying not to look in their direction, I returned back to the shore and put on my clothes.

......

(merge)

90-waterfall-ayano-monica.png

[Ayano]
"But still, how did you manage to keep up with us... I was surprised to see Kosaku come out of nowhere. I was so shocked."

[Kosaku]
"What are you talking about... I can't be the only one resting while everyone else is looking for food, so I was desperate to catch up with you."​

"Oh?... We left because Kosaku wouldn't wake up no matter how much we tried."

[Ayano]
"We just had to leave, you know?"

[Kosaku]
"Uhhh... When you put it this way..."​

[Monica]
"It's fine, but... Tosaku, what about Shiori?"

[Kosaku]
"Ah... Shiori-san is looking after the cave."​

[Ayano]
"Huh... Are you sure she's okay on her own?"

[Kosaku]
"That's what I thought, too... But Shiori-san said it was going to be okay."​

[Monica]
"I hope she's okay... but I'm a little worried about her."

[Kosaku]
"D-don't scare me...Where did Reiko-san and Yumi-chan go? Weren't you all going together?"​

[Monica]
"We made it to the beach together... But we parted ways there, so I don't know what happened after that."

[Kosaku]
"Hmm... I see..."​

[Ayano]
"What are we going to do now... Kosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"Let's see... Have you found any food yet?"​

[Monica]
"Not yet... We were walking down the animal path in search of food, and we found this waterfall, so we started bathing in it!"

[Ayano]
"Yeah, I see. Nothing's really changed since we got here..."

I wondered what was there at the end of the path. I looked up at the sky to see where the sun was. It didn't look like we had much time left to get back to the cave before sundown.

[Kosaku]
I'd like to go a little further down the animal path, but now is not a very good time... And we still need to find some food.​

[Ayano]
"Don't worry about the food, we'll just go to where we were yesterday."

[Kosaku]
"Where we were yesterday... Oh, that place."​

I remembered the fruit-filled area we found yesterday.

[Kosaku]
If we go there... I guess we'll just have to give up on the animal path, time-wise. Oh, well... I'll follow the animal path tomorrow.​

[Kosaku]
"Alright... Let's go pick fruit at yesterday's place and go back to the cave."​

[Ayano]
"We're going over there... All right."

Relying on our memory, we made our way through the jungle to the place where the fruit was growing.

38-fruit.png

[Monica]
"Gureito... I've never seen so many fruit trees growing together like this."

I heard Monica mutter, with a twinkle in her eyes.

[Monica]
"It's so wonderful... It's like a rainbow spotlight glowing."
(supottoraito)

The sweet scent stimulating the appetite filled the whole area.

[Kosaku]
"It's great, isn't it? But... There's only one fruit in all of this that can be eaten properly."​

[Monica]
"So it's just that akebi-like fruit... There are so many other fruits growing there."

[Ayano]
"Now, let's go pick some fruit and go back to the cave."

[Kosaku]
"Right... Let's just pick the fruit as fast as we can."​

We split up and picked out only the akebi-like fruits from the group of fruit trees.

......

[Kosaku]
Hmm... That's a lot of stuff.​

With my arms full of plucked fruit, I looked around. Before I knew it, I had gone to the outskirts of the place where all the fruit was growing. Monica and Ayano were hidden somewhere among the trees.

[Kosaku]
I'm sure they've already picked the fruit... We should get back to the cave.​

With that in mind, I turned to go back to the others.

[Kosaku]
... Whu?​

88-jungle.png

I was casually looking at the trees, and then I noticed something strange.

[Kosaku]
Other than the ones I've picked... There are marks where the fruit was torn off?​

Every tree except the one I plucked the fruit off had traces as well.

[Kosaku]
Monica and Ayano-san? ... Or maybe it's just an animal living in the jungle?​

When I got suspicious, tilting my head...

...*rustle*!!!

[Kosaku]
"...?!"​

91-linna-jungle.png



[Mysterious girl]
"...?!"

[Kosaku]
"Wh-who...?!"​

Suddenly a young, sweet girl, dressed in bright national dress and holding a spear in her hand, appeared through the bushes.

[Mysterious girl]
"Yapana... Vi, Ya, Beena, Hera!?"

With a surprised look on her face, the girl muttered something quietly.

[Kosaku]
"Y-you are... Are you a resident of this island?"​

[Mysterious girl]
"Habba! ... Kayla, lotto, kurzeirah!!"

While surprised for a moment, the girl suddenly raised her spear and started talking sharply.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what are you saying...?"​

I couldn't understand a word the girl said, but I could tell from the mood that she was hostile to me.

[Kosaku]
Wh-what's... What's with the attitude?​

[Mysterious girl]
"Kayla, habbat!"

[Kosaku]
"Woah... W-wait a minute!?... Waah?!"​

...byuh!!

The girl lunged at me with a spear held at the waist, screaming. I almost got stabbed in the gut, but I managed to dodge it and yelled out loud.

[Kosaku]
"J-just a moment... I'm n-not your enemy!!"​

...byuh!!

[Mysterious girl]
"Soli no!... Ni, iskena!"

[Kosaku]
"... Aaaaah!"​

The girl thrust her spear sharply from the waist. I tried my best to dodge it and convince her to stop, but apparently, it didn't work.

[Kosaku]
B-bad... I'm going to die like this!​

CHOICE

説得を続ける - Continue talking
実力を行使する - Use force

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
I don't know what you're mad about, but... I just want you to know I'm not the enemy.​

I dodged the tip of her spear and tried my best to convince the girl that I was not hostile.

[Kosaku]
"A-anyway, calm down, and let's talk about... Whoa!"​

...byuuh!

[Mysterious girl]
"Kera, na, yapana!"

[Kosaku]
"N-no, I mean, I'm not an enemy to you... Yipes!"​

...byuh!

[Mysterious girl]
"Ni, iskana!"

[Kosaku]
"Listen to me... Hiyaaaah!?"​

...Zaku!!

[Mysterious girl]
"Dena, ya, destona!"

[Kosaku]
"Son of a bitch... Why can't you at least listen to me!?"​

I yelled at her as I ran desperately around. But the tip of her spear pursued me relentlessly.

[Kosaku]
"Okay, you got me angry... In that case, I won't take it lying down."​

[Mysterious girl]
"Ni, miva, tedre!"

CHOICE 2
[Kosaku]
A-Anyway... We can't talk if I don't do something about that spear.​

I dodged the spear attacks, desperately trying to catch the girl off guard.

[Mysterious girl]
"Kera, na, yapana!"

(merge)

...byuh!

I dodged an incoming spear tip, leaped to her chest, and swept her leg.

[Mysterious girl]
"... Ah!?"

...*slam*!

Even with a spear, she was still just a weak girl. She collapsed on the spot immediately. I snatched the spear from her hand and thrust it at the downed girl.

92-linna-defeated.png

[Kosaku]
...*pants heavily*... Now, what do I do?​

She looked up at me with upturned eyes, her angry expression still on her face. I stared at her again.

[Mysterious girl]
"..."

She looked like she was 17-18 years old... Even her frowning, angry expression did not hide her innocence. Her slender, dark-skinned body wrapped in a bright, floral costume suggested that she was living a very primitive life.

[Kosaku]
Um... Not a very talkative mood here. In any case, you need to know that I'm not hostile to you.​

I retracted the spear, placed it on the ground beside me, and crouched down in front of the girl. She had a wary look on her face, her eyes alternating between my face and the spear on the ground.

[Kosaku]
"Do you see what I'm talking about?... I don't have anything against you."​

Looking into her eyes, I talked to her slowly. The girl's expression turned puzzled, and then she frowned suspiciously.

[Kosaku]
"I am not your enemy... My name is Kosaku."​

[Mysterious girl]
"... Ko... Ko, saku...?"

[Kosaku]
"Yes!... That's right..."​

She kept muttering my name over and over again as she stared straight at me warily.

[Kosaku]
"My name is Kosaku. What is your name?... Tell me your name."​

I gesticulated and continued speaking to the girl. She seemed to be listening and trying to understand my words, even though she was still suspicious.

[Kosaku]
"What's your name? Where did you come from? ... What part of this island do you live on?"​

[Mysterious girl]
"..."

The girl's expression was just a little bit relaxed when she was about to say something...

[Voice]
"... Kosaku-kuuun!"

[Voice]
"... Tosaku... Where are you?!"

I could hear them looking for me through the trees.

[Kosaku]
Th-these voices... Is that Monica and Ayano?​

The girl's body twitched and her face became frightened again.

[Kosaku]
"... Whu?!"​

While I was distracted by their voices, the girl grabbed the spear from the ground and ran like a rabbit.

[Kosaku]
"W-wait!!... These are my friends!"​

I got up quickly and tried to catch her.

[Mysterious girl]
"Ni, tangera... Vamona!"

Shaking my arm vigorously, the girl dove into the bushes. The necklace that hung around her neck was torn off and left in my hand.

[Kosaku]
"W-wait a minute!... I, I wanted to talk..."​

I rushed to catch up, but I was no match for her, she was used to running through the jungle. The girl disappeared into the foliage in a matter of seconds.

[Kosaku]
"... She's gone... Son of a bitch...There was still so much I wanted to ask about."​

I slumped my shoulders in disappointment and looked around the jungle.

93-jungle-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"Kosaku-kun... Why on earth did you go this far for the fruit?"

[Monica]
"Tosaku, I think I heard a voice... What's going on?"

[Kosaku]
"Ah... Just now, I met a girl here."​

Ayano and Monica emerged from the bushes. I told them the story of what had happened just now.

[Monica]
"So... This island isn't entirely uninhabited."

94-jungle-ayano-monica.png

[Ayano]
"Even so... Why did she attack so suddenly? We didn't do anything wrong..."

[Kosaku]
"Hmmm... Somehow, she looked like she had a reason for it, though? If we could talk a little more, I might have found out something."​

[Monica]
"But nevermind that... After a while, we may run into each other again."

[Ayano]
"But we don't understand her language, you know?... What will you do if we get attacked out of the blue in the jungle?"

[Kosaku]
"You know... That's a possibility..."​

When she said that, I suddenly became concerned about Shiori-san, left behind in the cave, and the other girls, who were somewhere else.

[Kosaku]
"I'm worried about Shiori-san and the others... Let's go back to the cave now."​

[Monica]
"Right... Now that we've gathered some food, let's do that."

We quickly grabbed a lot of Akebi-like fruits.

[Kosaku]
"Alright... let's get back to the cave."​

With our arms full with the fruit, we walked back to the cave.

(the rest of the day 2 is mostly the same, apart from this scene. we're back at the cave and Reiko is back with Yumi)



After a dull meal of sour fruit, I decided it was time to talk to Reiko-san about today.

[Kosaku]
"Reiko-san... Did you notice anything unusual in the jungle today?"​

48-cave-evening-reiko.png

[Reiko]
"No... I didn't find anything new. Yumi-san and I walked deep into the jungle..."

[Kosaku]
"... Really."​

[Reiko]
"What about you, Kosaku-san?... Did you stay at the cave with Shiori-san all day today?"

[Kosaku]
"No, I got up after everyone left, and I went after."​

[Reiko]
"Oh... Did you find anything new?"

[Kosaku]
"Hmmm, I guess so...?"​

I thought about today.

[Kosaku]
Oh, yeah...​

Come to think of it, I found this picture when I was on the beach.

[Kosaku]
"Reiko-san... Can you look at this picture for a second?"​

I took a picture I found on the beach from my breast pocket and handed it to Reiko-san.

[Reiko]
"This picture... Where on earth did you find it?"

[Kosaku]
"It was in the professor's attache case that washed up on the beach."​

I asked Reiko-san, pointing to the person standing next to the professor in the picture.

[Kosaku]
"Who is this guy next to the professor... Maybe Reiko-san knows?"​

[Reiko]
"This man... used to be professor Hazama's assistant before me."

[Kosaku]
"Oh, yes?... Right..."​

[Reiko]
"Why do you want to know?... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"Nah... I was just thinking he looks a lot like Reiko-san."​

[Reiko]
"That's right... Because that is my older brother."

[Kosaku]
"Oh?... Oh, I see. That's why I thought you looked alike."​

I looked at the person in the picture again and again... True, it made sense that they were brother and sister.

[Reiko]
"My brother was Professor Hazama's assistant for a long time before I took that position... If it's about him, Shiori-san would know more."

95-cave-reiko-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"Reiko-san's brother... Before he went missing, he used to go on research trips with Michio."

[Reiko]
"Yes... Right..."

[Kosaku]
"M-missing, you say...?"​

[Reiko]
"Two years ago... My brother was on a research trip with Professor Hazama when he suddenly disappeared."

[Shiori]
"When that happened, Michio did everything in his power to find Reiko-san's brother... But he was never found."

[Reiko]
"My brother was a dedicated researcher... I replaced him as Professor Hazama's assistant to continue my brother's work."

[Kosaku]
"S-so that's what this is all about. I showed you something bad, didn't I?... I'm sorry, Reiko-san."​

[Reiko]
"It's okay... don't worry about it."

Reiko-san said so, lowering her eyes.

[Reiko]
"You couldn't find anything else? ... Kosaku-san."
(you might've noticed that Reiko oftentimes adds this "Kosaku-san" at the end of her sentences after a pause. i'm not sure whether she suddenly remembers that she has to be polite, or what)

[Kosaku]
"Nope... Oh, by the way... The footprints were split in two midway along the beach, so I walked straight on and came to the spot where you all had dragged the boat up yesterday... And that rubber boat is gone. Which group had gone straight down the beach when you've split up?"​

[Monica]
"Weren't it Reiko and Yumi?... Because I and Ayano went into the jungle."

[Reiko]
"It's true, we were the ones who went straight down the beach, but... But I didn't notice that... Maybe you did, Yumi-chan?"

96-cave-reiko-yumi-scared.png

[Yumi]
"Nuh-uh... Yumi doesn't know anything about that."
(now that i think about it, that's only the second time I hear Yumi talk in third person since the intro)

[Kosaku]
"Hmm... Okay. It's not like the wind can blow it away... There was no sign of the animals' fooling around or anything like that... Then who the hell took the rubber boat?"​

[Reiko]
"Maybe Kosaku-san mistook the location?"

[Kosaku]
"No... I don't think that's the case."​

[Reiko]
"... Was there anything else?"

[Kosaku]
"One more thing... Yes, we've found a lake in the jungle."​

[Reiko]
"... A lake?"

[Kosaku]
"Yes, it's a beautiful lake with a small waterfall flowing into it... That's where I met Monica and Ayano."​

52-cave-evening-reiko-monica.png

[Monica]
"Just at the moment when we were taking a bath."

[Reiko]
"Taking a cold bath in a beautiful lake... Come to think of it, I haven't taken a bath since we got shipwrecked."

[Kosaku]
"So... Tomorrow, we'll all go for a bath."​

(the rest of day 2 and start of day 3 is the same. there's a minor difference in the dialogue before they all jump into the lake)

[Reiko]
"Beautiful... Such a place here."

The lake was as crystal clear as yesterday, and the waterfall sounded just as refreshing as before.

66-waterfall-monica.png

[Monica]
"The water is cold and it feels good... Come on, let's take a bath."

[Kosaku]
"That's all well and good... But what am I supposed to do?"​

[Ayano]
"Kosaku, you have to go to the other side, see?... Take a bath a little further away."

90-waterfall-ayano-monica.png

As she said this, Ayano pointed to the other side of the overgrown bushes.

[Kosaku]
"Pfft... I knew it."​

[Monica]
"I don't know what you knew... Tosaku is a man, so it's natural... Just so you know, don't come here for a peep."

[Kosaku]
"W-well, I wouldn't do that."​

[Ayano]
"I don't know... Kosaku, you set a precedent yesterday."

[Kosaku]
"T-that is... I just happened to be there, and you two were bathing."​

[Monica]
"Yeah, yeah, all right, just get over there."

I had no choice but to go into the bushes as Monica pushed me without hesitation.

[Ayano]
"... We'll give you a shout before we leave, okay?"

[Kosaku]
Tsk, what the... All together...​

I looked around, somewhat irritated. From the other side of the bushes, I could hear the joyful voices. There was a trail behind me running along the shore of the lake, twisting and turning.

[Kosaku]
Since they're all bathing... That animal path... I wonder where does it lead to? Shall I go check it out?​

(i've checked my previous update and this part disappears, making a rather abrupt transition from "here's the lake" to "those bitches". there are differences in the positions of the sentences in the last two lines, so that's a different script with copied parts)

CHOICE

調べにゆく - Check it out
調べにゆかない - Don't

(anyway, we'll stop here before going to the temple. now that the pinku banana of lustful demise is properly avoided, we can move on into the day 3 to the final part of the game. what further adventures await Kosaku and the girls? what did Reiko do to Yumi? is the professor still alive? who is this mysterious flower girl? tune in next week to find out!)

Monica】「あ‥‥‥あれを見て、Tosaku」
[Monica] "Oh... look at that, Tosaku."

Kosaku】「あ‥‥‥あれは」
[Kosaku] "Ah... That's..."

Kosaku】「み、湖じゃないか‥‥‥こんなところがあったなんて」
[Kosaku] "M-maybe it's a lake... I wonder."
They have already spotted the lake, and Kosaku doesn't have to wonder when he can see it clearly. That is another case of こんなところがあったなんて. The better translation would be:
"Look, Tosaku!"
"Ah... Isn't that..?"
"Would you look at that! It's a lake!"

He can't believe his eyes, and the expression reflects it.
...actually, you did use an alternative phrasing in the 7th update:
Ah... That's... A lake, huh?... How unexpected!
And it means pretty much the same as mine. But he speaks the exact same line in both updates.

Reiko utters a similar phrase in the 6th and 7th, but the sentiment is slightly different.
【Reiko】「綺麗‥‥‥こんな場所があったのね」
[Reiko] "Beautiful... Such a place here.
I think it can simply be translated as "What a beautiful place!" dropping the implied [we found here].
【Kosaku】「もうこんな時間か‥‥‥そろそろ、洞窟に戻らないと日が暮れるまでに帰り着けないな」
[Kosaku] "It's getting late... We'd better get back to the cave or we'll never make it back before sundown."
[...]
【Monica】「Tosaku、体の調子が良くないなら早く帰って休んだ方がいいわ‥‥‥もう洞窟に戻りましょう」
[Monica] "Tosaku, if you're not feeling well, you should go back and get some rest... Let's go back to the cave now."
This dialogue doesn't make sense. First, he seems to be saying "we'd better get back to the cave, or we don't get back to the cave before sundown". No shit, Sherlock! Second, Monica's next sentence repeats what he said. So I went back and checked it.

What he is actually saying is "if we don't turn back soon, we won't make it back before sundown", and Monica says "let's go back now".
【Monica】「本当に大丈夫なのね‥‥‥突然倒れるなんて、よっぽど疲れがたまっているのかしら」
[Monica] "Are you sure... You must be exhausted from suddenly collapsing."
She says that he must have been exhausted to collapse so suddenly. She doesn't know about pinku banana, so it's the only explanation she has to offer about what must be wrong with him.
そう言うとReikoはおもむろに立ち上がり、フロントにスリットの入ったスカートの前をゆっくりとはぐり上げた.
Having said that, Reiko stood up and slowly pulled up the front of her skirt. It had a slit in front.
I think it's better to rephrase that to reduce the focus on the skirt. "Reiko stood up and slowly lifted up her skirt with a front slit."
押しつけられる柔らかな頬の感触に、俺のいちもつは刀のように反りかえり、快感に思わず腰が震える.
With the rubs of her soft cheek, my manhood bent like a katana, and my hips trembled with pleasure.
If your manhood bends in the midst of that, it must be a shitty katana. Shamefur dispray. :M
What 反りかえり means is to "bend backwards", i.e. he got such a hard-on that it bent the other way.
草むらをかき分けて突然現れたのは、鮮やかな民族衣装を身にまとい槍を手にした、うら若い可憐な少女だった.
Suddenly a young, sweet girl, dressed in bright national dress and holding a spear in her hand, appeared through the bushes.
National dress? Of which nation? I think he meant "aboriginal costume/getup".

Random comments.
(目の前が真っ暗になり is pronounced as MENOMAEGAMAKKURANINARI and translated as: (1) to lose hope; (2) to be plunged into darkness. this sounds so fucking badass, i wanna use it somewhere, like evil monks throat chanting a spell or something)
Blindness is just a 1st level spell. :M
俺はReiko-sanとYumiちゃんを探して、密林の中を歩きだした.
You left this line in Japanese in the 7th update.
(yup, we go with Monica to the temple aaaaand we're dead)
I think the choice is to go back to the cave, not the temple?
"... She's gone... Son of a bitch...There was still so much I wanted to ask about."
She doesn't speak your language, bruh. You can ask her about the question of the meaning of life and universe, but what good would it be?
"That's right... Because that is my older brother."
Ah, is he the one residing in the lake? I think we should arrange for a family reunion.

By the way, for all of his bravado and casual dismissal of girls, Kosaku is pretty wimpy. He goes down with what, a single spear strike? Meanwhile, the nameless tentacle monster fought them tooth and nail to the last tentacle before withdrawing. He must be the true protagonist of this story.

Let's meet him again. I believe it's his turn to make the appearance now.

Added all the fixes in.

I was thinking more along the lines of:
upload_2020-5-5_13-49-59.png

> You left this line in Japanese in the 7th update.

Removed.

> I think the choice is to go back to the cave, not the temple?

Hmm... L-looks like my notes were wrong... T-that changes my plans for the next update somewhat. I'll begin with that choice, then. You can progress with pinku banana at it might lead to the two endings that I missed when I played the game for myself.

> Ah, is he the one residing in the lake? I think we should arrange for a family reunion.

AFAIK that's never said outright. But, as I've said, I'm missing two endings yet.

> By the way, for all of his bravado and casual dismissal of girls, Kosaku is pretty wimpy. He goes down with what, a single spear strike? Meanwhile, the nameless tentacle monster fought them tooth and nail to the last tentacle before withdrawing. He must be the true protagonist of this story.

You'll get your wish, for sure. But, honestly, you can't tell them apart and it might just be another one.

I have no idea about that plot thread, and the only things I know about the story are the things I could deduce from the screenshots twenty years ago. I am kinda surprised I could progress as far into the game as I did, with no understanding of choices or even a way to tell one choice from the other. Must've been beginner's luck.

One of the reasons for me following this LP was to understand what kind of story I played through without noticing. Did I eat the pinku banana? I stumbled on a lot of dead ends on my subsequent attempts, and could never quite replicate the combination that lead me to a proper ending.

But the timeline fits. And there must be some kind of law of conservation of assistants, too. I mean, they are unlikely to undertake more than one such trip per year.
Of course, there could always be other test subjects before this one...

The next update will have a lot of answers to a lot of questions, hehe. Including, I feel, why Kosaku is such a wimp as a monster. I've "recorded" the material with that choice I was mistaken about and it led me to 2 more endings (I was actually missing three). I know what's in that last one, so I'll leave it for the very end.

PART 08: DAY 3 - THE THIRD EYE REVEALED

CHOICE

調べにゆく - Go check
調べにゆかない - Don't go

CHOICE 1

(going up to the temple is the same as in update 6, so i'll leave it out altogether)

[Kosaku]
"These are the remains of an extinct ancient civilization... Are they? What a creepy temple..."​

I looked around slowly, checking out the temple up close.

(last time, we've met Reiko here, and it ended badly. now, though...)

[Voice]
"... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"!... Who's there?! Y-yumi-chan... Is that you, Yumi-chan?!"​

130-temple-yumi.png



I was ready for anything, but it was Yumi-chan, who appeared from the bushes.

[Kosaku]
"What's the matter with you... Are you all alone?"​

[Yumi]
"Kosaku-san... I need to talk to Kosaku-san."

Without answering my question, Yumi said that almost inaudibly. She was staring at me with a horrible, tormented expression on her face.

[Yumi]
"Yumi... Yumi needs your help..."

Swept by a wave of emotions that burst out like a dam, Yumi-chan couldn't speak well.

[Kosaku]
"What is the matter with you, Yumi-chan?... If you don't tell me what's going on, I won't be able to understand."​

[Yumi]
"R-reiko-san did... T-to Yumi..."

[Kosaku]
"Reiko-san?... What did she do to you?..."​

The words were no longer audible, and tears started to trickle out of her eyes. Not knowing what's going on, I was baffled by her behavior.

[Kosaku]
"A-anyway, if you want to tell me something, I'll listen to you when we get back to the cave... So, stop crying already."​

I was trying to get Yumi-chan to stop crying, desperately trying to soothe her. However, she just kept shaking her head from side to side and couldn't stop crying.

[Kosaku]
(T-trouble...)

Unsure of what to do, I just stood there helplessly, while Yumi sobbed.

[Yumi]
"L-look at this... Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"? ...W-where?"​

In front of my bewildered eyes, Yumi began to undress, slowly pulling down her skirt.

[Kosaku]
"...Y-yumi-chan?"​

With a soft thud, her skirt fell down on the ground. The only thing left on the lower half of her body was her underwear.

[Kosaku]
"W-what the hell are you doing... Yumi-chan?"​

Without replying, Yumi ran her hands over the white fabric that covered her gently curving pelvic area. Feeling embarrassed, she turned around and slowly pulled down her underwear.

[Kosaku]
"Y-yumi-chan..."​

I saw a small but plump and tender looking round ass. Yumi crouched down, turned to face me again, and slowly opened her closed legs. Her private parts were exposed to me immodestly. But when I saw what lay beneath her childlike pallor, I cried out in astonishment.

131-yumi-eye.webp

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what... the hell?!"​

[Yumi]
"R-reiko-san did this... Against my will... Please, Kosaku-san... Remove this..."

A mysterious mucous object was stuck to the most important part of Yumi's body. Light purple in color, it squirmed slowly as if it was a living organism breathing repeatedly.

[Kosaku]
"T-the fuck... Is that thing..."​

[Yumi]
"When we were alone in the jungle... Reiko-san forcibly... When Reiko-san commands... It does exactly what she says..."

I tried to say something, but my mouth was opening and closing repeatedly without any sound.

[Yumi]
"It's... Moving... In-inside... Stop that... Yumi is going crazy... Help me. Please... K-kosaku-san!"

Interrupted by sobs, Yumi-chan tried to explain the situation.

[Kosaku]
"In other words... Reiko-san attached this... So, it's wriggling when Reiko-san tells it to, right?"​

I finally managed to get my voice out, and asked Yumi to confirm it. Flinching from sobs, she nodded her head.

[Kosaku]
"What the hell is this thing... It's wriggling around like it's alive."​

[Yumi]
"Remove it... Kosaku-san, I'm begging you."​

[Kosaku]
"R-remove it... C-can't you do it yourself?"​

[Yumi]
"Y-yumi tried to remove it... B-but it goes all the way in and moves around there..."

I made up my mind and touched the mucous object softly with my fingertip.

...Zuruzuruzuru!

The object, which had been undulating slowly until then, shrank and disappeared inside Yumi's body.

[Yumi]
"... Oh!"

Yumi let out a small scream as she jerked her hips forward.

[Kosaku]
"Remove... this?"​

The object slipped inside Yumi's body and became hidden. The flesh of Yumi's vagina twitched and moved as if the object was wriggling inside.
(once again, 閉じ目 is "closed eyes", which is somewhat appropriate here)

132-yumi-hidden.png

[Yumi]
"Nnn... Waaaa... Please..."

Yumi writhed her hips in agony as she let out a sob mixed with a lustful sigh. I wiped my sweaty forehead with a palm.

[Kosaku]
"...N-not a chance..."​

[Yumi]
"Nnnn... Stop this already..."

Covering her face with both hands, Yumi began to sob in confusion.

[Kosaku]
(The fuck... is this thing? Why did Reiko-san put Yumi-chan through this... Why did she attach it?)​

As I watched Yumi crying, the anger at Reiko began to grow in me.

[Kosaku]
I'm going to go back to the others and confront Reiko-san... And have her get this thing out of Yumi's body.​

[Kosaku]
"Let's go back to the lake, Yumi-chan... I'm going to have Reiko-san take it out."​

I nudged Yumi and turned my back to her. Judging by her squirming, she put her underwear back. I waited for her to get dressed and then we went back to the lake without a word on the way.

65-waterfall.png

[Kosaku]
"We're back at the lake... Where is everybody?"​

Standing on the shore, looking out over the lake, I looked for the others who were supposed to be bathing.

[Kosaku]
"Oh... Nobody here? Weird... Where did they all go?"​

Only the sound of a small waterfall flowing into the lake echoed through the air.

[Kosaku]
"Did they all finish bathing and go back to the cave already?"​

I tried walking along the shore, looking for everyone... But I didn't see anyone else as I circled the lake.

[Kosaku]
"Something... is wrong. Oh, well... Anyway, let's go back to the cave."​

With a sense of foreboding, we decided to go back to the cave for now.

62-cave-day.png

[Kosaku]
"Huh? ... N-no one's back here either?"​

We went back to the front of the cave, but I didn't see anyone there.

[Kosaku]
"R-right... Maybe they are inside the cave?... Nobody inside... That's not right. Where the hell is everybody?"​

Did they get lost on the way back from the lake?

[Yumi]
"Kosaku-san... There's some noise outside..."

133-cave-yumi.png

[Kosaku]
"?... I wonder if they're all back."​

After Yumi said that, I turned my attention to the sounds outside. I could certainly hear the muffled sounds of people outside the cave.

CHOICE

表に出てみる - Go out
じっとしている - Stay inside

(now that we're here on this cliffhanger... let's return to the pinku banana branch at the point where Nevill pointed out my mistake (thanks). i promise we'll be back here soon enough with some minor differences)

(as a refresher, we started day 3 and went to take a bath with everybody. then the hentai monster attacked Ayano and we noticed that Reiko and Yumi disappeared. Following Reiko led us to our lustful demise, but what if we went back to the cave instead, carrying unconscious Ayano? let's find out)

CHOICE

Reiko達を探す - Look for Reiko
洞窟に戻る - Return to the cave

CHOICE 2



I looked at Ayano-san. She still hasn't regained consciousness. For the time being, I thought we should go back to the cave and take care of her.

[Kosaku]
"I'm worried about Ayano-san... For now, let's get back to the cave."​

[Monica]
"What about Reiko and Yumi? ...Tosaku."

[Kosaku]
"I'll look for them after we return to the cave."​

[Monica]
"... All right. Let's do it."

I humped the unconscious Ayano on my back and started walking towards the cave.

[Kosaku]
"... *pants heavily*..."​

[Monica]
"Good job, Tosaku... We'll be back at the cave soon."

Ayano-san was still unconscious. I went on, panting.

...

[Shiori]
"Are you okay?... Kosaku-san, it sounds like you're having a hard time breathing."

[Kosaku]
"...*breathes heavily*... L-let's, let's take a break..."​

And then, when I've put Ayano-san down and tried to sit down in the grass...

97-flowers-linna.png

[Kosaku]
"...?!"​

As I've sat down, the bushes in front of me suddenly shook, and a girl in a bright garment appeared in front of me.

[Mysterious girl]
"Habba! ...Kayla, lotto, kurzeirah!"

The girl shouted something sharply and pointed a spear at us.

[Monica]
"Wh-what are you talking about...?"

98-flowers-monica.png

I wondered if the girl was a native of this island. I couldn't understand a word she said, but I could tell from the mood that she was hostile to me.

[Shiori]
"We will not... Forgive anyone... Who defiles our forest...?"

[Kosaku]
"Y-you can tell?... Shiori-san!"​

[Shiori]
"I don't know for sure, but... It's very similar to the language I know."

[Monica]
"T-tosaku... Careful!!"

[Mysterious girl]
"Kaila, habba!!"

[Kosaku]
"W-wait a second!!"​

...byuh!

[Kosaku]
"Wa, wa, wa..."​

Screaming, the girl lunged at me with a spear held at the waist.

[Monica]
"T-that spear... It's the same one I saw earlier flying at the monster in the lake!"

[Kosaku]
"W-what?!... Then, it was she who killed that monster..."​

[Kosaku]
"J-just a moment... We're n-not your enemy!!"​

[Mysterious girl]
"Soli no!...Ni, iskena!"

...byuh!!

[Kosaku]
"Y-yikes!!"​

[Monica]
"No, Tosaku!... She can't understand you!"

As I dodged the incoming spearhead, I tried to gesture and explain my lack of hostility.

[Kosaku]
"Th-that's why I'm not your enemy... Woah!"​

...byuh!!

[Mysterious girl]
"Ni, iskena... Yapana!!"

[Kosaku]
"N-no way... I'm going to get killed like this!"​

Apparently, she couldn't comprehend that I'm not hostile to her. Dodging her incessant attacks, I gave up trying to talk her out of it.

[Kosaku]
"N-no choice... I'll just have to fight!"​

I shook off the incoming spear tip and leaped to her chest.

[Mysterious girl]
"... Ah!?"

Grabbing the hilt of the spear, I punched the girl in the gut.
(panchi)

...bosu!!

[Mysterious girl]
"... Ugh!"

The necklace on the girl's chest had come off and remained in my hands. Maybe she was caught off guard when I didn't show resistance, but she just collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
(nekkuresu. also i don't quite understand how that happened from the previous actions)

[Kosaku]
"...*pants heavily*... Who the hell is she?"​

[Monica]
"I wonder if she's a native of this island... Should we worry about being attacked out of the blue?"

I looked at the collapsed girl intently. She seemed to be living a rather primitive life, judging by her appearance and the number of words she spoke.

[Kosaku]
"Just when I thought we finally found someone... I'd rather we were still on a deserted island than have them pounce on us without warning. Okay, I knocked her out, but what do we do with her?... I think it would be bad to just leave her here like this."​

There were many questions I would like to ask this girl, but the language barrier was going to be a problem.

[Shiori]
"It's a pity to leave her like this... Kosaku, take this girl with us to the cave and we'll take care of her."

99-flowers-shiori.png

[Kosaku]
"Take her with us... What are you going to do with her, Shiori-san?"​

[Shiori]
"... I'd like to talk to her for a moment."

[Kosaku]
"Can Shiori-san understand what she says?"​

[Shiori]
"I don't know for sure, but... Somehow, I feel like I understand the meaning."

[Kosaku]
"All right, we'll do as Shiori-san says... Let's carry her to the cave, then? Monica, I'm sorry, but I need you to carry Ayano. I'll carry this girl."​

[Monica]
"OK... Let's do that while she's unconscious."

[Kosaku]
"Right... Let's get back to the cave as soon as possible."​

I picked the girl up and we started walking towards the cave.

...

After returning to the cave, I put the girl down in the back inside... She was still unconscious.

[Kosaku]
"It looks like neither Reiko-san nor Yumi-chan have returned to the cave."​

After we returned, we immediately checked for the two of them, but they weren't here.

[Monica]
"Tosaku, Ayano's not waking up... What should we do?"

Monica murmured anxiously as she laid Ayano down. Caught in the midst of a series of baffling events, I didn't know what to do.

101-cave-linna-out.png

[Mysterious girl]
"Nnn.. Nnn..."

[Shiori]
"Oh... That girl. She's waking up."

Shiori-san rushed to the girl's side who let out a small sigh.

[Mysterious girl]
"... Haa!"

As soon as she opened her eyes, the girl jumped up and staggered back.

102-cave-linna-close.png

[Shiori]
"There's no need to be afraid... We didn't bring you here to do you any harm."

Shiori-san spoke softly and slowly, trying to persuade the girl. Though frightened, the girl looked at us with a stubborn look in her eyes.



[Mysterious girl]
"Kula, me!... Vata, dena!"

[Shiori]
"Vi, ni, inoma, ya... Ni, inoma... Ya."

[Mysterious girl]
"...?!"

The girl stared at Shiori-san with a surprised look on her face. I had no idea what they were talking about, but apparently, Shiori-san's words were getting through to her.

[Shiori]
"Vi, ni, inoma, ya... Vata, ya, nima?"

[Mysterious girl]
"Nima? ... L-linna..."

Even though she looked at us suspiciously, the girl seemed to have lost her guard just a little bit.

[Kosaku]
"What did you say... Shiori-san?"​

[Shiori]
"We're not hostile to you... Apparently, she believed me."

[Kosaku]
"Right... Thank goodness."​

[Shiori]
"She says she's a 'Keeper of the Sacred Place' from a village on the other side of the mountain."

[Kosaku]
"Linna... Is it? What's this holy place she's talking about?"​

[Shiori]
"Who knows... I'll try to go into a little more detail, but it's like I can only speak in fragments."

Shiori-san then started talking to Linna again. Even though I didn't understand a word of the language, I could feel the atmosphere of the slow conversation. After patiently asking and answering for a while, Shiori-san looked back at me with a pale face.

[Shiori]
"I can only understand her partly, so I'm not really sure... Apparently, there's something terrible going on on this island."

[Kosaku]
"Something terrible... What do you mean?"​

[Shiori]
"Let me explain for a bit... First of all, this island has been inhabited by weird monsters since ancient times, and the natives have been living in fear of their shadows."

[Kosaku]
"You mean like that monster we saw on the lake...?"​

[Shiori]
"Yeah... These monsters are sucking the life energy out of humans for sustenance. Every time they went into the jungle, they were attacked by monsters... The natives of this island have been living like that for a long time."

[Kosaku]
"..."​

[Shiori]
"But at some point, men came from beyond the sea and trapped these monsters in a holy place. Apparently, they periodically bring in sacrifices and offer them to the holy place to control the monsters. The leader among those people was treated as a hero by the villagers, and they would listen to anything he said."
(rida - leader)

[Shiori]
"One day Linna overheard them talking about sacrificing her people one day. She told the other villagers and they wouldn't believe her... On the contrary, Linna was targeted by the man and had to flee the village. And then... We showed up in front of her, while she was looking for a chance to take him down after leaving the village... She thought we were with him..."
(chansu)

[Kosaku]
"So that's why... Now I get why you attacked us so suddenly. Still, this is starting to sound like a load of trouble... Who the hell are these people?"​

[Shiori]
"I can't give any more details... Than this. If I had the time and the resources, I'd be able to understand a little more."

[Kosaku]
"What the hell do we do now?"​

I looked around hopelessly.

[Monica]
"Hey, Tosaku... What's all that noise?"

100-cave-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"...Huh?"​

After Monica told me to, I started listening. Linna tensed her body with a twitch as if she had noticed something, too.

[Kosaku]
"Right, there's a strange commotion outside the cave, isn't there? What... The hell?"​



CHOICE

表に出てみる - Go out
じっとしている - Stay inside

(this is where the previous branch with Yumi merges, with the difference that there are other people inside with us instead. and this is the lamest choice i've seen in this game)

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
"I'm going to take a look outside."​

When I was just about to come out of the cave...

CHOICE 2

When Monica told me, I paid attention to what was going on at the front... There was definitely something strange out there.

And at that moment...

(merge)

A large figure appeared from the bend at the entrance of the cave and suddenly attacked me.

[Kosaku]
"...W-woah!"​

[Shiori]
"... K-kosaku-san!"

A figure came in, hit me hard, and I was dropped instantly.

...Gah!!

I heard the disturbing sound of footsteps and the screams of the girls echoing in the cave. When my hazy mind became clear, I saw an incredible sight.

103-cave-outside-professor.png

[Professor]
"How are you feeling?... Nishijima."
(i should note that the professor uses 君 (kimi) to address Kosaku and others except for his wife, which is, afaik, normal for him because he's older and more senior to everyone on the social ladder. i don't know of any way to emphasize that nuance in translation)

[Kosaku]
"Puh... Professor Hazama!"​

I was surrounded by strong men in masks who brought me out of the cave. Monica, Ayano, and Shiori-san were screaming as the men held them captive.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what are you doing... Let us go!"​

I tried to get up, but the masked men held me down from behind and made me kneel in front of the professor.

[Kosaku]
"...Kuh!"​

[Professor]
"I'm glad you're fine... Nishijima. When our ship was shipwrecked, I wondered what was going to happen, but I'm glad to see that you're all safe."

[Shiori]
"M-michio-san... What on earth is this all about?"

[Professor]
"Oh, Shiori... Most importantly, you're safe... Going through such a dangerous ordeal, are you hurt in any way?"
(the professor is another interesting translation challenge, especially for an amateur like me. i can see how he talks harshly like a 50-year old dick to pretty much anyone, but he shows some emotion for his wife.)

[Shiori]
"..."

[Professor]
"This is why I did not want to bring you along... Oh, well, we'll discuss that without any haste afterwards."

[Kosaku]
"The man Linna was talking about... Professor Hazama, that's you!?"​

[Professor]
"So, the native girl told you... That is correct, I am very interested in these monsters... I have these people helping me with my research."

[Kosaku]
"What the hell are you going to do to us..."​

[Professor]
"What's the matter... Did you forget? You all came as my research assistants. Of course, it's obvious that you're going to assist me with my research, don't you agree?"

The professor said with an evil grin on his face.

[Professor]
"What, it's not that difficult... Those monsters, they subsist on human life energy. They are particularly fond of that youthful exuberance... All you have to do is provide it."

[Kosaku]
"As if we would assist you like this... Who would do that!"​

[Professor]
"You have to consider your situation before you speak... Are you in a position to pick and choose now?"

The professor said so in a dismissive tone of voice. I gritted my teeth in anger, but there was nothing I could do about it.

[Kosaku]
"...Ssshiiit."​

[Professor]
"By now, Reiko has returned to the village and started preparations... Takanashi is with me."

[Kosaku]
"Reiko-san... Is your partner?"​

[Professor]
"Indeed... Haven't you realized it yet? Because of the shipwreck, the monsters are getting hungry... We need to return to the village immediately."

The professor snapped his fingers, and the natives around him got moving all at once. They started walking into the jungle with us in tow.

[Kosaku]
"Damn it... Let me go, bastards!"​

I fought back with all my strength, and the natives punched me in the back of the head, knocking me unconscious.

...

Next thing I knew, I was locked in a dark room. While I was out, my arms were tied tightly behind my back.

[Kosaku]
Where... Am I...?​

104-hut.png

I looked around me. I was in a simple but sturdy-looking room with walls made out of logs. It must have been used as a warehouse or something. There was a lot of stuff piled up around there.

[Monica]
"Tosaku... It looks like he came to."

Turning towards the voice, I saw Monica, Ayano, and Linna all imprisoned together with me.

[Kosaku]
"Are you all... Safe?"​

[Monica]
"We are in the middle of a native village... They brought us here while Tosaku was unconscious."

Monica whispered quietly.

A small window was inlaid with a bamboo lattice that allowed the light from the outside to enter the room. The entrance was also blocked by a bamboo lattice door, outside of which there was a strong native man wearing a mask, standing guard over us.

[Kosaku]
"We're missing Shiori-san and Yumi... What happened to them?"​

Taking a look around, I asked without addressing anyone specifically.

[Ayano]
"I don't know about Yumi, but... The professor took Shiori-san away somewhere."

Looking like she was about to cry, Ayano said in a subdued voice.

[Kosaku]
"... I see."​

For a place in the middle of a village, it was pretty quiet outside. The chirping of the birds echoed peacefully out of tune with our current situation.

[Ayano]
"What's going to happen to us now... Are we going to be fed to that monster?"

No one answered Ayano's question. I was silent remembering what the professor had said. If we stayed here obediently, they would come for us and we'd be eaten by that disgusting monster.

[Kosaku]
"Looks like it... If we don't figure a way out soon..."​

[Ayano]
"I don't want to... No."

A few large tears dropped out of her eyes when Ayano said this quietly looking down.



CHOICE

逃げ出す努力をする - Try to escape
おとなしくしている - Stay still

[Kosaku]
"Well... Let's think of something to get out of here."​

I spoke reassuringly to cheer Ayano-san up.

[Monica]
"But even if we did get out of this room, we'd still be in the middle of a native village... And there'd probably be a lot of natives around. Even if we were lucky enough to escape their pursue, wouldn't we be caught sooner or later on such a small island?"

Monica said calmly while staring at me.

[Kosaku]
"But if we don't do anything now, there's zero chance that we'll be able to escape... It's better than doing nothing, isn't it?"​

[Monica]
"Well... Tosaku may be right. Let's figure out a way to get out of here."

We've decided to think about a way to escape from here.

[Kosaku]
"You can't get out of the window, there's a guard standing at the entrance..."​

[Monica]
"But first, we need to deal with these ropes... I wonder if there's a way to do it."

[Kosaku]
"... Right."​

It looked like my survival knife has been taken away from me. I looked around and saw if there was anything I could use to loosen the ropes.

[Kosaku]
(Oh... Maybe that will work?)​

The shiny silver cross on Monica's chest caught my eye. The long part of the cross was thin and pointed, it might be able to cut the rope.
(kurusu)

[Kosaku]
(I don't know if it'll work... But let's try it anyway.)​

I quietly walked over to Monica and whispered in her ear so that the native at the entrance wouldn't notice me.

[Kosaku]
"Monica... Use that cross on your chest to cut me loose."​

[Monica]
"OK... Guddo aidea. I'll get it for you."

Monica laid down on her side and removed the cross from her neck, gently dropping it down. Back to back with her, I picked it up with my hands behind my back and began to cut the ropes on my wrists.

...gishigishigishi...

Little by little, the rough rope was being cut.

...gishigishigishi...

I watched the native standing guard at the doorway. He looked around like he was bored and didn't seem to notice what we were doing.

...gishigishigishi...

...buchi!

Soon I heard the snapping sound of the rope and I felt it loosen.

[Kosaku]
(Yay!... I'm free of the rope.)​

[Monica]
(It's my turn... Come on, Tosaku.)

In the same way, I undid Monica's binds... After a while, we were all free from the ropes.

[Kosaku]
"Well... Now for the main event."​

Although we were able to free ourselves, a stout native warrior stood guard at the doorway. We were never getting out of this room unless we took him down somehow.

[Monica]
"The door to the entrance is locked... Now what, Tosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"Right... We need to get his attention. I have an idea, Monica, listen to me."​

[Monica]
"...?"

I whispered my thoughts softly to Monica.

[Monica]
"NO...I-I don't want to do that."

[Kosaku]
"Our lives depend on it... I beg of you. Make it happen."​

[Monica]
"Fine... I'll do it."

Reluctantly, Monica nodded her head. I put her rope back on, and then I tied it again.

[Monica]
"Nnnn... It hurts..."

Crawling near the doorway, she curled up on the spot and let out a pained sound.

[Monica]
"Haaa... Aaahhh... M-my stomach..."

The guard has noticed that and was watching Monica from outside. Watching him, she moaned seductively in response.

[Monica]
"Nnnn... H-help me... My stomach hurts..."

When the man opened the door, muttering something, I jumped on him.

[Guard] "Uoo!... Vata, dena!"

...bam!

My knee kick landed beautifully in the pit of his stomach and he collapsed to the floor.

[Kosaku]
"Alright, let's get out of here while we still can... Hurry!"​

I quickly tied the man up and ran out of the hut. For some reason, there was not a figure in the village and it was silent.

[Kosaku]
"Why isn't anyone here?... Feels even more creepy."​

[Monica]
"It's just the right time to get away. Tosaku... Let's get out of here while we still can."

[Kosaku]
"No... Wait a minute..."​

I was concerned about Shiori-san and Yumi-chan, who were being held by the professor somewhere.

CHOICE

二人を助けにゆく - Find others
部落から逃げ出す - Escape village

(and on this cliffhanger we'll wrap it up. the next update will feature a lot of different paths through the village so i'll try to post it in a single chunk)

Grabbing the hilt of the spear, I punched the girl in the gut.

(nekkuresu. also i don't quite understand how that happened from the previous actions)
That's because he punched her in みぞおち, which is the solar plexus. Apparently it was a hard enough punch to tear the necklace off.
いきなり槍なんかで襲いかかってきて、危ないったらありゃしないわ
I don't want to be in any danger of being attacked with a spear out of the blue.
This expression is a bit beyond me, but I think she is wondering if the girl is a native and should they be worried about being attacked with spears out of the blue... presumably, by other natives.
[Kosaku] "Shiori-sanは、この女の子の喋っている言葉が分かるのかい?"
[Kosaku] "Can Shiori-san understand what she is talking about?"
A minor nitpick, but "says" works better here.
"Shiori-san, can you understand what this girl says?"
Probably would work better if this
[Kosaku] "わ、分かるのか?‥‥‥Shiori-san!"
[Kosaku] "Y-you can understand her?... Shiori-san!"
was changed to "Y-you can tell?..." to avoid stating the same thing twice. Recognizing a phrase is not the same as understanding the language.
"おお、Shiori‥‥‥無事でなによりだよ"
"Oh, Shiori... Most importantly, you're safe"
I think the common expression is "thank goodness you are safe".
[Hazama教授] "何を今更‥‥‥忘れたのかね?"
[Professor] "What's the matter... Did you forget?"
[...]
[Kosaku] "そんなこと‥‥‥誰が協力するものか!"
"Assisting you like this... Who would do that!"
[...]
Shiori-sanなら、Hazama教授に別の場所に連れられていってしまったわ
Professor Hazama took Shiori-san with him to another place.
Nothing particularly wrong with those except being overly literal. "Don't tell me you forgot", "as if we would cooperate with/assist you" and "Hazama took Shiori-san away/somewhere else" should probably work better.
"[Ayano] What's going to happen to us now... Are we going to be fed to that monster just like that?"

[Kosaku] "そうだな‥‥‥このままじっとしていれば、多分‥‥‥"
[Kosaku] "Right... If we stay restrained, then maybe..."

[Ayano] "そんなの‥‥‥いやよ"
[Ayano] "That's... No."
Their dialogue is literally this:
"If we stay still, then [we are going to die/be fed to the monster - context is taken from the previous sentence]". No maybes about it.
"No, I don't want to [die - same as above]"

So something like:
"What's going to happen to us now... Are they going to feed to that monster?"
"Looks like it. If we don't figure a way out soon..."
"I don't want to die."
A few large tears dropped out of her eyes when Ayano said this quietly looking down.
おとなしくしている - Stay obedient
Obedient? :lol:
It means "sit still", "do nothing" etc. Exactly what Kosaku said would be the prerequisite for becoming monster food.

Speaking of, what happens if you choose that? It was a choice, come on!
THE THIRD EYE
Here we go again.
ever1772.png
Naturally, the H-game would have its own take.
[Yumi]"Remove it... Kosaku-san, I'm begging you."
This line is not formatted.
"Indeed... Haven't you realized it yet? Because of the shipwreck, the monsters are getting hungry... We need to return to the village immediately."
I went back and checked, and yes, he says 遭難したおかげで... but what does the shipwreck have to do with it?

How many days are there in the game? I think I've been captured before and even lost clothes somewhere along the way, but I don't know if that happens in this route or some other one.

What happens if you choose to sit still? I assume it would be another Bad End, but is it a unique one?

...also, you said that this update might contain explanation for why Kosaku was such a wimp. I can definitely see it, but no explanation is forthcoming. :M

Strap Yourselves In

Everything I've left out in the post below is used as is, as usual.

> That's because he punched her in みぞおち, which is the solar plexus. Apparently it was a hard enough punch to tear the necklace off.

Yeah, I still don't get it :)

> A minor nitpick, but "says" works better here.

It's one of these things. They have no misgivings about writing something like:
- Can you understand her?
- Yes, I can understand her.
- Hey, she can understand her!
So she can understand her... Good.

I usually try to find synonyms to have it more lively but it often slips in. More passes and more eyes on the text certainly helps.

"おお、Shiori‥‥‥無事でなによりだよ"
"Oh, Shiori... Most importantly, you're safe"
I think the common expression is "thank goodness you are safe".

[Hazama教授] "何を今更‥‥‥忘れたのかね?"
[Professor] "What's the matter... Did you forget?"

These were intentional. Hazama never uses something normal like "yokatta desu" or whatever, so I've tried to characterize him a bit in the translation.

> Nothing particularly wrong with those except being overly literal. "Don't tell me you forgot", "as if we would cooperate with/assist you" and "Hazama took Shiori-san away/somewhere else" should probably work better.

Kosaku and Ayano lines fixed, though.

> Their dialogue is literally this:
> "If we stay still, then [we are going to die/be fed to the monster - context is taken from the previous sentence]". No maybes about it.
> "No, I don't want to [die - same as above]"

Man, these damn half-lines... Note they never say the word die or fed, etc. I'll leave it out, too. I'll do it like this:

[Ayano] "What's going to happen to us now... Are we going to be fed to that monster?"
[Kosaku] "Looks like it... If we don't figure a way out soon..."
[Ayano] "I don't want to... No."

> No maybes about it.
> [Kosaku] "そうだな‥‥‥このままじっとしていれば、多分‥‥‥"
> [Kosaku] "Right... If we stay restrained, then maybe..."

Then what does 多分 mean in this context?

"Indeed... Haven't you realized it yet? Because of the shipwreck, the monsters are getting hungry... We need to return to the village immediately."
> I went back and checked, and yes, he says 遭難したおかげで... but what does the shipwreck have to do with it?

I've had my doubts about it, too, and my explanation is that due to the shipwreck they've lost a lot of time with monsters being hungry for 3 days instead of, I assume, the professor feeding them on day 1 if the shipwreck did not occur.

> How many days are there in the game? I think I've been captured before and even lost clothes somewhere along the way, but I don't know if that happens in this route or some other one.

Lost clothes? Hmm, no such thing here. Day 3 is the last one. Maybe you're remembering the first scene with Shiori lying naked on top? How do you remember it visually?

> Speaking of, what happens if you choose that? It was a choice, come on!
> What happens if you choose to sit still? I assume it would be another Bad End, but is it a unique one?

My plan is to map out all of the village scene and then move on to this, so no spoilers :)
> ...also, you said that this update might contain explanation for why Kosaku was such a wimp. I can definitely see it, but no explanation is forthcoming. :M

Erm, yeah. I wrote this after recording all the text in a big chunk, thinking about it as "the next update". After working on it, I've realized it's more of a... 3-4 updates, I'd say. So the previous one was the first, village will be second and the next one after that should explain Kosaku's subpar tentacle performance.

> A minor nitpick, but "says" works better here.

It's one of these things. They have no misgivings about writing something like:
I think what actually happened was:
Girl: [Gibberish]
Shiori: [Translates]
Kosaku: Wait, you got that? [i.e. the phrase the girl said]
Girl: [Unconscious] X_X
Kosaku: Shiori, can you understand the language she was using? [literally 喋っている言葉 the-words-that-someone-speaks, meaning can Shiori hold a conversation?]

So I don't think there was a duplicate there.
Man, these damn half-lines... Note they never say the word die or fed, etc. I'll leave it out, too. I'll do it like this:
[...]
[Ayano] "I don't want to... No."
They do, once, it's the line above they get their context from. Specifically 餌 from あの怪物の餌にされてしまうの.
Thing is, the memetic "do not want" is a perfectly valid sentence in Japanese or even in Russian, not so much in English. So inserting the context back to avoid sounding like a doge is sometimes inevitable.

Also, it's probably "No, I don't want to!" since the structure of Japanese often places at the end the parts that sentences in English start from. No one says "like this... not", because the proper structure is "not like this". Sometimes it causes an additional headache when, say, the reveal at the end of the sentence changes its meaning, yet you have to spoil it right off the bat when using King's English. But somehow this phrase associates with active denial in my head instead of quiet resentment I associate with "I don't want to die". I dunno.

Then what does 多分 mean in this context?
In this context it means a possibility with high likelihood. "Probably", "likely". Far closer to certainty than a maybe.
Word for word translation looks like: "That's right. At this rate if we stay still, probably/likely [we ded]."
I used less definitive "looks like it" for そうだな, and more definitive "then" for 多分, swapping things around a bit.
Lost clothes? Hmm, no such thing here. Day 3 is the last one. Maybe you're remembering the first scene with Shiori lying naked on top? How do you remember it visually?
No, I definitely had seen naked sprites for several characters. Which characters were those, I do not recall, but I can find Linna's sprite on VNDB, and I think there was another one. Ayano? Yumi? I don't remember, it's been 20 years!
55909.jpg
Can you, like... check the game resourses or something?

Edit: you can! I didn't dream it up! So Ayano and Monica, at least. Which makes sense, since Shiori is off-limits, Yumi is Reiko's personal plaything and potential sacrifice, and Reiko is an accomplice.

Also, I wonder what ending this screenshot comes from...

I think I got that one too.

Well, I don't see the difference. "I don't want to... No!" can sound both agitated and quietly reserved.

I used less definitive "looks like it" for そうだな, and more definitive "then" for 多分, swapping things around a bit.

Ahem, I've always treated "probably" and "maybe" like synonyms.

Ah, you meant one of the girls is naked. I thought you saw the protag naked somewhere. Linna and Ayano naked shots are from later on in the mysterious cave. Coincidentally, I have all of the game art ripped, courtesy of the now-defunct hitomi.la (116k files, 7.2gb of delicious pc98 with a tinge of win95 hentai goodness :smug:). You know, you probably got very close to one of the happy endings of the game. This cave is pretty much the last section of the game and you can't get to it with pinku banana inside of you.

Edit: you can! I didn't dream it up! So Ayano and Monica, at least. Which makes sense, since Shiori is off-limits, Yumi is Reiko's personal plaything and potential sacrifice, and Reiko is an accomplice.

These didn't load. Also, I do plan to show all of the 14 endings, since I have all but one unlocked and this last one is obvious.

PART 09: DAY 3 - FRIENDLY LOCALS

107-village-ayano-monica.png


CHOICE

二人を助けにゆく - Find others
部落から逃げ出す - Escape village

(i'm going to do an experiment here with the branching narrative. the forum spoiler tag and the simple tree-like structure allows me to map this whole section as it plays out)

CHOICE 1 - Find others
[Kosaku]
"Monica, guys, please go ahead and run... I'll find Shiori-san and Yumi-chan and then we'll go after you."​

[Ayano]
"No way!... Kosaku, you're just going to get caught again."

[Kosaku]
"But we can't just leave them like this and run away. If I get caught... At least you guys will get away."​

[Ayano]
"...Kosaku!"

[Kosaku]
"That place at the beach where you were washed ashore... I'll meet you there. If we're not there by the end of the day, do as you want."​

[Monica]
"Got it... We'll meet each other on the beach."

[Kosaku]
"Okay, I'm off to look for Shiori-san and Yumi-chan."​

Carefully, I walked through the village looking for the two of them. Inside the village, it was quiet and empty, as if deserted.

[Kosaku]
Why... Is it so quiet here?​

I wandered through the village looking for Shiori-san and Yumi-chan.

...

Hiding in the shadows of the buildings and creeping, I checked the inside of the buildings one by one.

[Kosaku]
There's nobody inside... Where did they all go?​

Having no other choice, I was about to move on to the next building, when I saw a masked native walking up from behind the corner of the building.

[Kosaku]
Sh-shit, it's bad...​

Tiptoeing, I hurried to the other side of the building, trying to hide there.

[Kosaku]
Huh?... What's that...​

108-throne.png


Right in the middle of the village I saw a place against a cliff that looked like an altar for some kind of ritual. Similar to a stage, a square altar was raised by piling dirt, lined up with two large torches and ominous stone pillars with carvings on them. In its center, there were three luxurious chairs, decorated with pelts. In front of the stage, a large space of well-trodden dirt was circled by small stone statues of monsters.

[Kosaku]
Is this... Some kind of ceremonial place?​

Masked natives were moving around the altar, working busily.

[Kosaku]
What the hell do they want to do with us?​

It was probably for the ritual to sacrifice us. I shuddered at the thought of it.

[Kosaku]
Anyway, I've got to find Shiori-san and Yumi-chan.​

When I turned around to look for them again...

[Voice]
"..."

I heard a scream coming from inside one of the buildings.

[Kosaku]
"A scream?! ... That voice was...?"​

CHOICE
詩織さんか!? - Shiori-san?
優美ちゃんか!? - Yumi-chan?

CHOICE 1 - Shiori-san?
[Kosaku]
"That voice... Was that Shiori-san!?"​

I approached the building where I heard the voice from. As I got closer, I could hear fierce arguments coming from inside. I peered through the slight gap in the window.

[Kosaku]
(Th-that's... Professor Hazama and Shiori-san!)​

109-shiori-down.png

[Professor]
"... Are you saying that what I'm doing is wrong?"

[Shiori]
"What on earth is all that about, Michio-san? Please give me an explanation!!"

[Professor]
"You don't need to know anything... It's all for the sake of completing my research."

Inside, the professor and Shiori-san were in the middle of a quarrel. Standing intimidatingly in the center of the room, Professor Hazama shouted angrily at her.
(仁王のように部の中央 - amusingly, deepl insisted on translating that as "stood like a ninja in the center of the department", but then conceded to "like a king")

He must have slapped her... Shiori-san broke down in tears, holding her cheek.

[Shiori]
"Sacrificing innocent people... What kind of research needs that? I beg you!... You have to help Kosaku-san and the others."

[Professor]
"In order to complete my research... I need that monster, no matter the cost. Those monsters are extremely valuable in biological evolution research... Apparently, they live off of human life energy. The sacrifices are absolutely necessary to continue the study of those monsters."
(enerugi)

[Shiori]
"I don't understand... What kind of research is so important for doing such a horrible thing?"

[Professor]
"If this research is completed... People will be freed from all sorts of diseases and disabilities. As a living being, man is capable of taking the first step on the path of great evolution. Precious sacrifices were always required for the purposes of outstanding research... Why don't you understand that, Shiori?"

[Shiori]
"Even so, pretending that she's your assistant, bringing in innocent people and sacrificing them to a monster... It's so cruel!!"

[Professor]
"... I shouldn't have brought you on this trip after all... Just let it go and forget about it."

[Shiori]
"Forget about it?... I'll never be able to forget such a terrible thing."

[Professor]
"Why on earth do you want to protect them so much? That guy... Nishijima, did something happen between you and him after the shipwreck? I didn't expect you... To fall for that boy!"

[Shiori]
"Th-that's so awful, you saying that!! Michio-san... Why do you say this? What happened since the time when you were so kind to me?... Or... Or was it just me failing to see you for what you are?"

[Professor]
"Shiori... I will never give you up to that immature boy!"

[Shiori]
"Th-this has nothing to do with Kosaku-san... No matter who it is, you should not do such a horrible thing."

[Professor]
"Shut up!... How long have you been..."

Red with anger, Professor Hazama pushed Shiori-san down roughly.

[Shiori]
"S-stop it!!... Please stop it, Michio!"

Unable to just watch, I jumped through the window into the room.

[Kosaku]
"Enough with the violence... Professor Hazama!"​

[Shiori]
"K-kosaku-san!?"

[Professor]
"B-bastard... How did you get here?!"

110-hut-professor.png

Surprised for a moment, professor turned around, exclaiming this. But he quickly regained his usual composure and continued.

[Professor]
"I don't know how did you get out of the prison... But you're not getting off of this island. So, I suggest you give up."

111-hut-professor-cool.png

[Kosaku]
"... Let go of Shiori-san!"​

As soon as I screamed, I jumped on Professor Hazama. He did not give in. We grabbed each other by the chest and wrestled fiercely.

[Kosaku]
"You have no idea how much Shiori-san cares about you... You don't get it, do you?!"​

[Professor]
"You little... Our private life is not your business!"

The professor was strong for his age, he was pretty much my equal. We spun around the room, wrestling hard. The furniture toppled over with a loud crash and its pieces scattered all over the room.
(a shame we don't have the manual, it would probably say that Kosaku is a badass martial arts guy or something, not your typical weeb weakling)

[Kosaku]
"D-damn... You!"​

The professor's thick arms wound around my neck... Being strangled, I couldn't take a breath.

[Kosaku]
"...Ugu...!"​

I rummaged through the floor blindly, grabbed something I had touched with my fingertips, and swung it around with all my might. A metal oil lamp struck the professor directly in the back of his head.

[Professor]
"... Guha!"

Gasping once, the professor dropped like a stone.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Are you all right?!"​

112-hut-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"Y-yes... Wh-what happened to him?"

[Kosaku]
"Don't worry... He's just unconscious."​

[Shiori]
"I-I'm sorry, Kosaku-san... You've suffered so much."

[Kosaku]
"It's nothing for Shiori-san to apologize for. But we need to get out of here now... The others have all ran away already and are waiting for us."​

[Shiori]
"Yes... B-but..."

Shiori-san frowned at a loss of words.

[Kosaku]
"If we don't get out now, everything will go back to where it was. Quick!"​

Somewhat forcibly I grabbed Shiori-san's hand and darted out of the building.

[Kosaku]
"... Huh?!"​

113-village-reiko.png

[Reiko]
"I wonder where are you going... Kosaku-san?"

We ran out of the room and Reiko stood there in front of us.

[Reiko]
"I thought I heard a loud noise from the professor's hut and came to check it out... How did you manage to escape?"

With an icy smile on her face, Reiko spoke matter-of-factly. The area around the building was already surrounded by spear-wielding natives.

[Reiko]
"The preparations for the ritual are complete... Please don't cause us any more problems."

[Kosaku]
"...Shiiit..."​

CHOICE
強引に突破する - Break through
部屋に逃げ戻る - Run back

CHOICE 1 - Break through
[Kosaku]
If I run to the jungle, Monica and others are waiting for me... But I need to get away from here first...​

I glanced at Reiko. You think you've already got me, don't you?... Reiko was standing in front of me open for an attack...

[Kosaku]
No other choice... I guess...​

Taking advantage of Reiko's lax defense, I swung my right foot up into her belly. Making a thud, it landed right in the middle.

...dosu!

[Reiko]
"...Ugu!"

While she was folded in agony, I twisted her arm and whispered into her ear menacingly.

[Kosaku]
"Tell them to get away from us... Or I'll break your arm!"​

[Reiko]
"What a fool... Even that won't get you off this island."

Coughing and choking, Reiko retorted, as her stubborn attitude remained unbroken.

[Kosaku]
"Never mind that, tell them!!... You don't want me to break your arm, do you?"​

I said as I squeezed Reiko's arm... She moaned again.

[Reiko]
"... I-I'll do it. I'll say it."

[Kosaku]
"It's all I want... Get on with it."​

[Reiko]
"Stepa, dosa! ... Ola, stepa, dosa!"

When Reiko shouted in their language, the natives reluctantly cleared the way in front of them.

[Kosaku]
"Tell them... To leave me alone."​

After I told that to Reiko, I started moving forward using her as a shield.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san, follow me."​

Holding Reiko's arm, I moved forward... And then...

...*thud*!!

[Kosaku]
"...Gua!!"​

Suddenly I felt a dull thump in the back of my head and I fell forward.

[Shiori]
"M-michio-san...?!"

I heard Shiori-san yell in surprise. As I collapsed to the ground and laid on my back, I saw the professor taking her arm.

[Professor]
"How dare you hit me!... You damn brat, you'll get yours!"

[Shiori]
"...K-kosaku-san!!"

I stood up unsteadily in a haze and tried to turn to the professor.

[Reiko]
"Careful!... Professor, step back!"

I could see a glimpse of Reiko raising her hand in the air giving a signal while shouting.

[Kosaku]
"...*cough*."​

...Dosu!!!!

Suddenly my gut felt like it was burning, and I looked down at my feet involuntarily. When I did, I saw thick spears stuck in my body. Something came up my throat and I gagged hard.

[Kosaku]
"...*cough* *cough*!"​

The power went out of my knees, and I crumbled to the ground. As soon as the tip of the spear was removed from my belly, the red blood began to gush out and my feet were stained with it.

[Shiori]
"Ko... Kosaku-san?... M-michio-san?... Kosaku-san is...!?... What happened to him?!"

As I vacantly listened to Shiori-san's hysterical screams, I was aware that I was witnessing the moment of my death.

[Professor]
"I cannot save him... Not with all this blood spilling out."

[Shiori]
"K-kosaku-san...? No, Kosaku-san!? ... Answer me, Kosaku-san!!"

At that moment I felt relieved that Shiori-san could not see. At least she won't be able to see me die in such a miserable way. But now, I didn't even know how badly I fell down. My consciousness was enveloped in a deep dark fog. It wasn't long before I would be gone from this world. With all that would be left... A bloody corpse.

114-end4.png

END No4

CHOICE 2 - Run back
Surrounded by so many natives, I was at my wit's end. I turned around and ran back inside like a rabbit with Shiori-san.
(手も足もでない - translated literally something like "having neither hands nor feet")

[Kosaku]
"...Yikes!!"​

126-hut-professor-angry.png

[Professor]
"B-bastard... How dare you hit me!"

As soon as we got back inside, the professor was there, conscious, and waiting for us. I staggered back and eventually pushed back outside.

127-village-reiko-professor.png

[Reiko]
"Are you hurt in any way... Professor?"

[Professor]
"It's all right... The back of my head hurts a little bit."

[Reiko]
"That was a close call... So, what do you want to do with this man?"

[Professor]
"Are the preparations for the ceremony... complete?"

[Reiko]
"Yes... Already finished."

[Professor]
"I cannot delay my schedule any longer... Lock him up until the ritual begins. This time make sure he absolutely cannot escape."

[Reiko]
"I understand... Lead him away."

As soon as Reiko signaled them with her eyes, I was violently dragged off by the natives...

I heard screams coming from the other side of the building.

[Monica]
"Let me go... Free me!"

[Kosaku]
"M-monica?!... Ayano-san, Linna!!"​

Three people who should have fled the village were being brought back by the natives, just like me.

[Monica]
"Sorry, Tosaku... We got caught after all."

Monica said to me dejectedly. Once again we were tied up and thrown into the prison.

TO BE CONTINUED

CHOICE 2 - Yumi-chan?
[Kosaku]
"That voice just now... Isn't that Yumi-chan's voice?!"​

I walked up to the building where I heard the voice. I could hear Yumi's crying voice from inside of it as I approached. I cautiously peered through the open window and into the room.

[Kosaku]
... W-what the?​

115-yumi-reiko-hentai.png

[Yumi]
"Nnn... Aaaah..."

[Reiko]
"Heh-heh... You're so cute, Yumi."

[Yumi]
"... Stop..."

On a large chair placed in the center of the room, Yumi-chan, stripped to the nude, was screaming as she was held by Reiko. Stroking Yumi's bare skin lovingly, Reiko gave a subdued chuckle.

[Yumi]
"... Aaahh..."

[Reiko]
"Hehehe... Does it feel good? Shall I make my alter ego work some more?"
(分身 - other self/alter ego/part of oneself/representation of oneself (in someone or something else)/incarnations of Buddha??? what the hell does she...)

When Reiko said that, Yumi anxiously wiggled her hips and gasped loudly.

[Yumi]
"Afuuu...!!"

[Reiko]
"There's nowhere to run anymore... You're going to live by my side to satisfy me."

[Yumi]
"I don't... Want to."

Yumi desperately rejected Reiko's words while almost drowning in pleasure surging through her. But her words were too quiet, mixed with sweet gasps.

[Reiko]
"You still say that... Well, nevermind then."

Reiko massaged Yumi's gentle chest with one hand and sucked on her hardening nipple with her mouth.

[Yumi]
"...Haaa!"

Yumi's body tensed up, and a shiver ran down her spine. With both hands behind her back, Yumi shook her whole body in refusal.

[Reiko]
"See, it's... Soaking wet, no? It's leaning on my leg."

Holding Yumi, Reiko whispered as she peered into her crotch. I could clearly see from here that the area between Yumi's round buttocks had a moist sheen to it.

[Reiko]
"No matter what your mouth says, your body seems to be more honest."

While whispering insulting words to Yumi, Reiko did not slow down her caressing hands.

[Yumi]
"...*pants*...Aaaaaah!"

Her eyes moistened and her cheeks flushed, Yumi was too aroused to answer any more. Seeing this expression on her face, Reiko grinned broadly with satisfaction.

[Reiko]
"Hehehe, I guess it's about time you became more honest with yourself... And that's good."

[Yumi]
"Nnn... Yeeeees..."

[Reiko]
"Well then, I'll remove it from you..."

Reiko put her hand between Yumi's legs and moved it around.

[Yumi]
"... Aaah... Ahhhh..."

There was a damp splash and a mucous object fell on Reiko's palm.

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... You've been inside her for so long, she's soaking wet... How did it feel to be teased around, dragging it out, without being satisfied?"

The mucous object twisted and writhed in the palm of her hand.

[Kosaku]
(Whu... What the?!)​

The mucous object was being absorbed into Reiko's body. Right before my eyes, it gradually became a part of her body and disappeared.


[Yumi]
"*pants heavily*... P-please, enough..."

[Reiko]
"I can't do that... I'm going to make sure you're satisfied."

With that said, Reiko held Yumi in her arms, then deftly pulled up her skirt and pulled down her underwear. When I saw Reiko's crotch revealed, I was amazed once more.

[Yumi]
"...Fuuu!"

When she removed her underwear, Reiko's crotch revealed a prominently protruding erect penis.
(... oh... note to self: need to google "t1000 liquid metal porn" at some point)

[Kosaku]
Wh-what... The fuck is this?!​

The color, the shape, it couldn't be fake. This throbbing, pulsing thing was no different from my own.

[Reiko]
"Heh-heh... It's a little big, but if you're that wet, it will be able to get in."

[Yumi]
"Nnnn...no!?"

Yumi screamed while shaking her body as she gazed upon the luster of the huge black phallus. Ignoring her wishes, Reiko placed her hands on Yumi's thighs and made her lift her legs, then pushed the tip of her giant cock against Yumi's wet pussy.
(okay, i rechecked but i don't get how we went from "the color, it's not a fake" to the huge black phallus)

[Yumi]
"Hiiiiii...!!"

Pushing the flesh to expand, the phallus disappeared inside Yumi. An involuntary shriek came from her mouth.

[Yumi]
"Ahh... It's ripping me!"

[Kosaku]
I c-can't just sit here and watch this... Wh-what do I do?​

Without thinking, I got carried away and leaned on the window.

[Kosaku]
(...Shiiit!!)​

...gatan!

The wood supporting the window came off and made a loud noise. Reiko, who had been immersed in the act until then, turned around in surprise.

[Reiko]
"Is there someone in there?... Come on out!"

CHOICE
部屋に飛び込む - Jump into the room
じっとしている - Stay still

CHOICE 1 - Jump into the room
[Kosaku]
She found me... No choice then!​

I went around to the entrance and barged inside.

116-hut-reiko.png

[Reiko]
"Y-you... What are you doing here?! How the devil did you get free?"

Reiko glowered momentarily upon seeing me but quickly said in a calmer voice.

[Reiko]
"Peeping at me... Such a bad taste, Kosaku-san."

[Kosaku]
"Let go of Yumi-chan... I won't allow you to do any more terrible things to her."​

[Reiko]
"What an interesting thing to say... What do you mean you won't allow? What in the world is there not to allow?"

Reiko spoke to me with a confident smile on her face... I slowly approached her. Just as I was about to jump on her, she quickly reached over to the desk, picked something up, and put it to her mouth.

...Piiii!!!

The high, ear-wrenching sound of a whistle echoed through the room.

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-what the hell did you do?!"​

[Reiko]
"Who knows... What did I do?"

Smiling calmly, Reiko feigned ignorance.

[Yumi]
"W-we have to run... Kosaku-san. The natives are coming! You don't have to... Worry about Yumi..."

Yumi cried as she crouched down on the floor near Reiko's feet.

[Reiko]
"If you want to take Yumi with you, you can do that... But you can't run away from this village, can you?"

When Reiko said that, she backed away suddenly, making it easier for me to help Yumi-chan.

CHOICE
優美を助ける - Help Yumi
令子に飛びかかる - Jump on Reiko

CHOICE 1 - Help Yumi
[Kosaku]
"Yumi-chan... Are you okay?!"​

I ran up to Yumi and tried to pick her up on her feet.

[Yumi]
"Don't look... Kosaku-san, this is embarrassing..."

Yumi glanced at me and broke down in tears. Hastily taking my shirt off, I've put it over her body.

[Kosaku]
"Can you stand up by yourself?... Let's get out of here..."​

I glanced at Reiko as I helped Yumi up. She was looking at us with her arms folded and smiling with contempt.

[Reiko]
"Yes... It'll all work out, right?"

When Reiko said that... Making a commotion outside, the natives rushed into the room.

[Reiko]
"... Seize him!"

Before I could resist, the natives jumped on me... I was pinned to the floor in no time.

[Yumi]
"...K-kosaku-san!!"

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... Like I told you, you can't escape."

Reiko laughed triumphantly as she looked down at me.

[Reiko]
"Take him with you... And tie him up so he can't escape again."

Following her instructions, the natives forced me to get up. I was taken out of the building, leaving crying Yumi-chan behind. The natives roughly led me through the village...
(i've no idea why the natives suddenly understand her japanese)

I heard screams coming from the other side of the building.

[Monica]
"Let me go... Free me!"

[Kosaku]
"M-monica?!... Ayano-san, Linna!!"​

Three people who should have fled the village were being brought back by the natives, just like me.

[Monica]
"Sorry, Tosaku... We got caught after all."

Monica said to me dejectedly. Once again we were tied up and thrown into the prison.

(very minor changes with choice 2, i know)

TO BE CONTINUED

CHOICE 2 - Jump on Reiko
I jumped on Reiko, who tried to back off, and twisted her arm behind her back.

[Reiko]
"Ow... Wh-what are you doing?!"

[Kosaku]
"Be quiet... We'll hold you hostage until we leave the village."​

As I said that, I looked at Yumi-chan at my feet.

[Kosaku]
"Yumi-chan... Are you okay?!"​

[Yumi]
"Don't look... Kosaku-san, this is embarrassing."

Yumi glanced at me and broke down in tears. Hastily taking off my shirt, I've put it over her body.

[Kosaku]
"Can you stand up by yourself?... Let's get out of here..."​

[Reiko]
"Yes... It'll all work out, right?"

Reiko muttered sarcastically.

[Kosaku]
"I'll make it happen... Now let's get out to the front."​

I started to push Reiko and we were leaving the building... When the natives rushed into the hut making a commotion.

[Natives]\n
"Vadaga!... Kena, iskano."

The natives seemed baffled to find Reiko being held hostage.

[Kosaku]
Tell them to move out of... The doorway.​

When Reiko said something in the natives' language, they reluctantly cleared the way.

[Kosaku]
"Yumi-chan... Don't leave my side, just follow me."​

We walked slowly through the surrounding natives. When I tried to go through the doorway, Reiko gave me a sudden elbow strike.

...dossu!

Her elbow dug deep into my gut. I let out a pained groan, hearing her voice rang out.

[Reiko]
"Now... Seize that man!"
(この男を捕まえなさいっ, that "polite but firm" -nasai form makes it an interesting thing to ponder, how does Reiko address the natives, where are they hierarchically?)

The natives jumped at me in a flash. I was pinned to the floor in no time.

[Kosaku]
"...S-shiiit!!"​

[Yumi]
"...K-kosaku-san!!"

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... Like I told you, you can't escape."

Reiko laughed triumphantly as she looked down at me.

[Reiko]
"Take him with you... And tie him up so he can't escape again."

Following her instructions, the natives forced me to get up. I was taken out of the building, leaving crying Yumi-chan behind. The natives roughly led me through the village...
(same here, i've no idea why the natives suddenly understand her japanese)

I heard screams coming from the other side of the building.

[Monica]
"Let me go... Free me!"

[Kosaku]
"M-monica?!... Ayano-san, Linna!!"​

Three people who should have fled the village were being brought back by the natives, just like me.

[Monica]
"Sorry, Tosaku... We got caught after all."

Monica said to me dejectedly. Once again we were tied up and thrown into the prison.

(repeated just for better flow)

TO BE CONTINUED

CHOICE 2 - Stay still
I quickly crouched under the window, hiding from sight.

[Kosaku]
(This is not good... Not good at all.)​

I wondered if Reiko saw me. If she found me now, I wouldn't be able to save Yumi-chan.

[Kosaku]
For now... Let's get the hell out of here.​

I was just about to move along the building while crouching.

...Piiiii!

A high, ear-wrenching whistle sounded from inside the building, and the confused natives appeared out of the surroundings.

[Kosaku]
Dammit... They found me!​

When the natives recognized me, they grabbed their spears and chased after me. I completely forgot about hiding and ran.

[Voice]
"Yapana... Ni, iskena!"

Shaking off the pursuing natives, I raced towards the door in the wall around the village. And then all of a sudden another group of natives showed up in front of me, rushing towards me.

[Kosaku]
"*pants desperately*... Oh, shit..."​

With buildings on both sides, I couldn't run away from them... I was caught right between the two groups.

[Kosaku]
"T-there's no way out of here...!?"​

105-village.png

CHOICE
とにかく前を突破する - Break through
建物の窓に飛び込む - Jump into the window

CHOICE 1 - Break through
I looked around, but there seemed to be no escape route. And all the while, the savages were rushing towards me. I picked up a piece of firewood on the wall of the building to my side... And I made up my mind.

[Kosaku]
"All right, then... I'm going to have to break through their ranks."​

I swung a piece of wood and jumped in the midst of the natives with a yell.

[Kosaku]
"...Uaaaaaa!"​

It wasn't as if they didn't expect me to counterattack, but there was a gap between the natives. Seeing the thinnest part of the group, I ran towards them.

...gashi!!

I hit the first one with all my strength and leaped past him. I ran through the whole group, and without looking back legged it towards the exit in the wall.

[Voice]
"Iskano!... Dena, yapano!"

I could hear the screams of the natives chasing after me. Spears buzzed around me, hitting the ground with thuds. The village was surrounded by a high wall, but there was a door in front of me for people.

[Kosaku]
"There... If I can just get through there!"​

I had reached the exit door and was about to remove the bar from it...

CHOICE 2 - Jump into the window
[Kosaku]
Damn it...​

I boldly jumped into the window of the building. The room wasn't very large, but it looked like a storeroom.

[Voice]
"Iskarno! ... Dena, yapano!"

I could hear the confused voices of the natives from outside. I quickly found a way out the other side and ran out through the door. On the outer side, there was a wooden bar and fixings for it. When I closed the door, I fastened the bar to prevent it from opening.

[Kosaku]
"Th-this is going to buy me some time...!!"​

I was just about to turn around and start running again...

(merge)

...Zaku!

A heavy blow shook my whole body and I was slammed against the door like I was being blown off.

[Kosaku]
"Eep!?"​

Without a thought, I tried to remove the bar, but I couldn't move...
(this line is probably different in choice 2 but i'm too lazy to re-check it)

I looked at myself unconsciously.

[Kosaku]
"...Crap!"​

A thick spear handle was piercing my body from the back. The spearhead sticking out of my belly impaled me on the door. The pain rippled through my body, gushing out of my mouth. I fought with all my might to pull out the spearhead that was stuck in the wood. I could hear the natives shouting behind me. Finally detaching myself, I turned around to find myself surrounded by them.

[Kosaku]
Shiiiit...​

My whole body was hot like in a fever and I was in a daze. I crouched down in a heap on the spot as the power slipped from my knees.

127-village-reiko-professor.png

[Reiko]
"What's going on... Hey!?"

Reiko and the professor showed up among the natives... They both looked startled when they saw me.

[Reiko]
"This... Is not going to help."

Reiko muttered while furrowing her brow in pity.

[Professor]
"Nobody told you to kill him... This is useless, isn't it?"

[Reiko]
"I am deeply sorry... The natives seemed to be in high spirits before the ceremony."
(sometimes i want to put all the "sorry"s in the notes, because, oh boy, they have a lot of different ones. this 申し訳ありません - moushiwakearimasen, is one of the longer ones)

[Professor]
"There's nothing we can do now that he is dead... What about the other ones? Have you caught them yet?"

[Reiko]
"Yes... I'm getting reports they caught them in the jungle and are on their way back."

[Professor]
"That's good... They'll last for a while. You'll have to bring them back soon, though."

[Reiko]
"Do not worry. I'll get on it right away... Professor."

I overheard the conversation between the professor and Reiko while fading out. I couldn't see anything anymore, I couldn't feel any pain. It was just a muffled voice in my ears that proved I was still alive.

[Shiori]
"K-kosaku-san!?... N-no, what's happening?!"

[Kosaku]
(?!... Sh-shiori-san!!)​

[Professor]
"Sh-shiori... Don't come over here! Reiko-kun, take Shiori to your room!"

[Shiori]
"N-no, let go of me... Kosaku-san!!"

I could hear Shiori-san's heartbreaking screams in the distance. At that moment, I thought to myself, I don't want to die so miserably. But now it was too late...

My consciousness would fade away and I'd never be the same again. I was at death's door... I couldn't come back from there even if I had any regrets. Deep darkness was beginning to cover me, blocking my consciousness. Eventually, I wouldn't be able to think. After I returned to nothing, all that was left behind was... Just a chunk of meat crouching in a pool of blood.

114-end4.png

END No5


CHOICE 2 - Escape village
[Kosaku]
"We can't just leave Shiori-san and Yumi-chan like this and run away."​

[Monica]
"But running around the village and looking for those two is like asking them to catch us again. Don't you think that right now, the best thing to do is to get out of here?"

[Kosaku]
"Right... Maybe Monica's right. Let's just get out of here now."​

Checking out the area, we started to run out of the village. The area around it was surrounded by a sturdy wooden wall made of sharpened logs that was about twice as high as the buildings.

128-forest.png

[Kosaku]
"D-dammit... There's nowhere to go!"​

When I looked around in confusion, Linna pointed to the other side of the wall and shouted.

[Linna]
"Oppa... Della, oppa!"

[Ayano]
"T-there... There's a door over there!"

[Kosaku]
"Let's go!"​

In a flash, we ran towards the door. And at that time...

[Voice]
"Yapana!? ...Iskano, yapana!"

[Monica]
"Jizasu!... They found us!!"

A masked native emerged from somewhere behind the buildings shouting when he saw us and calling out for help.

[Kosaku]
"Oh, no... Come on, hurry up and run through that door!"​

With natives after us, we ran to the door, removed the thick bar from it, and rushed out of the village.

[Kosaku]
"Everybody run... We need to get out of here!"​

When I turned around, the natives with spears in their hands were charging out of the door.

[Ayano]
"Kosaku-kun, we're running... But where do we run?"

[Kosaku]
"The beach!... Run to the place where you were washed up!"​

I yelled gasping for air. We ran through the jungle with Monica first, followed by Linna and Ayano after.

[Kosaku]
"Hurry up... Guys, run faster!"​

[Monica]
"*pants*... That's as fast as we can go!"

As the girls ran ahead, their feet were getting caught up in the weeds and they couldn't run any faster... From behind us, I heard the cries of the natives.

[Voice]
"Ni, iskano!... Ni, da, razana!"

[Kosaku]
"G-goddamn it... At this rate..."​

...byuh!

[Kosaku]
"... Yipes!!"​

A spear buzzed over my shoulder. I picked it up in a hurry, desperately trying not to trip over, and kept running.

[Kosaku]
"...*pants intensely*..."​

[Ayano]
"...*pants*... I-I can't go on...!"

Stumbling, Ayano-san slowed down.

[Kosaku]
"Ayano-san... Stay with me!"​

I steadied Ayano with one hand and continued to run.

[Kosaku]
"...*pants extensively*..."​

The natives were closing in on us. After all, there was no comparison between their legs, which were used to the jungle, and ours. We were about to be overtaken by them.

[Kosaku]
If I don't do something, they'll catch us... What should I do...​

CHOICE
槍を投げかえす - Throw spear back
左右に散って逃げる - Scatter right and left

CHOICE 1 - Throw spear back
[Kosaku]
A-anyway... I have to buy us some time...​

I turned around and held the spear in my hand. The masked natives were closing in on us.

[Kosaku]
"Eat... THIS!!"​

...byuh!

I threw the spear with all my strength and it flew at the closest native.

[Voice]
"Ga... Ganbo!?"

The native who hastily avoided the spear lost his balance and fell down, and the ones who came after him fell like dominoes.

[Kosaku]
"Yes!... Now, hurry!"​

I kept running while desperately supporting the swaying Ayano-san.

[Kosaku]
"...*pants incessantly*..."​

[Ayano]
"...*pants like a horse*... Eeeeek!?"

[Kosaku]
"W-woah!?"​

...batan!!

[Ayano]
"... O-ouch!"

Ayano was caught in the weeds, lost her balance, and we fell down in a heap.

[Kosaku]
"A-ayano-san, get up!... They're catching up to us. We need to move it!"​

[Ayano]
"I c-can't... M-my foot is sprained. I can't run anymore..."

I tried to force Ayano to get up as she squatted down on the ground, almost crying.

[Voice]
"Unda, la, kratzen!"

...Gah!!

[Kosaku]
"...?!"​

I crumpled to the ground with a groan as the native slammed into me from behind.

[Ayano]
"Wh-hat!?... K-kosaku-kun!!"

The swarming natives, who had quickly caught up with us, pinned us down.

[Kosaku]
"A-ayano-san!... D-dammit..."​

[Linna]
"Varmo... Lotto, me, varmo!"

[Monica]
"は、離してっ!‥‥‥離しなさいよっ!!"
[Monica]
"L-let me go!... Let go of me!"

Linna and Monica, who were running in front of us, were also captured by the natives and brought back. We were taken back into the village, tied up tightly again, and locked in the prison hut.

TO BE CONTINUED

CHOICE 2 - Scatter
[Kosaku]
Oh, right... If we all just scatter and run...​

The natives would be confused for a moment as to which way to go. I shouted to Monica, who was leading the way.

[Kosaku]
"Monica, we've got to split up!... Let's meet up at the beach!"​

[Monica]
"G-got you! ...Meet you at the beach, right?!"

Monica changed course with Linna behind her. I ran through the jungle in a different direction from them, helping Ayano-san with my hand.

27-flowers.png

[Voice]
"Dagaba!... Yapana, iska, do, vai?!"

I could hear the frantic voices of the natives behind me.

[Kosaku]
"It worked! ... Hurry, while we can!"​

I kept running while desperately holding the swaying Ayano-san.

[Kosaku]
"...*pants profusely*..."​

[Ayano]
"...*pants in unison*..."

[Kosaku]
"...*pants*... W-we're almost at the beach. Do your best, Ayano-san!"​

[Ayano]
"*pants*... The beach... Then what, Kosaku-kun?"

[Kosaku]
"I-I haven't thought about it, but... First of all, we need to figure out how to get off the island."​

Unsteadily, we kept running hard to the beach.

[Kosaku]
"...*pants increasingly desperate*..."​

[Ayano]
"...*even more pants*... Eeeeek?!"

...Zubuzubuzubuzubu!!

[Kosaku]
"W-woah?!"​

While we were running, our feet suddenly sank deep into the ground, and we couldn't move.

[Kosaku]
"W-what the?! ... I-it's a bottomless swamp!"​

[Ayano]
"No... I'm sinking fast!"

In the blink of an eye, Ayano and I were up to our waists in the swamp.

[Kosaku]
"D-damn it...!!"​

I struggled to get out, but the more I wriggled, the more I was dragged into the swamp.

[Voice]
"... Unda, la, kratzen!"

While we were trying to get out of the swamp, the natives caught up to us. Ironically, they threw us a rope and we escaped the bottomless swamp only to be captured by them again.

[Linna]
"Varmo... Lotto, me, varmo!"

[Monica]
"L-let me go!... Let go of me!"

[Kosaku]
"M-monica!... Linna..."​

Linna and Monica, who had fled in another direction, were captured by the natives and brought back here, too. We were taken back into the village, tied up tightly again, and locked in the hut.

TO BE CONTINUED

BONUS:
(but what if we stayed still back in the cell?)

CHOICE

逃げ出す努力をする - Try to escape
おとなしくしている - Stay still

CHOICE 2

Sure, I wanted to run away, too, but there didn't seem to be anything I could do about it in this situation. Even if we were to escape from this room, we'd be in a native village outside. The natives would be all around us. And even if we got out of the village without being spotted, our pursuers would soon find us on such a small island.

[Kosaku]
For now... We'll just have to go along.​

The sound of Ayano's sobbing echoed through the room. I closed my eyes slowly, feeling neither despair nor resignation.

TO BE CONTINUED
:troll:

(as you might've guessed, TO BE CONTINUED means it all merges in the end)

Strap Yourselves In
PART 10: DAY 3 - METAMONA! YAPANA, METAMONA!

“Yes… it will be wonderful. It will be almost utopian. We will lead all of Elvenkind to salvation. To a new era of wonders never seen and felt before…”

117-hut-evening.png

Once again locked in the cell, we remained silent. Eventually, it started to get dark outside the window... Again, the night has fallen on this island. Some time ago, the distant sound of dreadful drums started ringing. At times I could hear what sounded almost like animal roars.

The voices were getting louder and louder and seemed to be getting closer to where we were, along with the sound of footsteps. Soon, the entrance door opened and a group of masked natives stepped into the room.

[Native]
"Geta, ora!"

[Ayano]
"... Kiyaaaa!?"

[Monica]
"N-no... Let go of me!!"

[Linna]
"Vamona... Me, vamona, parano..."

The masked natives didn't pay any attention to me and were taking Ayano and the others out of the room roughly.

118-hut-evening2.png

[Kosaku]
"W-wait... Where are you taking them?!"​

With my hands tied tightly together, I desperately tried to stop the natives.

[Native]
"Da, intellana! ... Kelano, ya!"

...*thud*!

[Kosaku]
"...Gua!!"​

Sadly, I was thrown to the corner of the room.

[Ayano]
"...K-kosaku-kun!"

[Monica]
"Tosaku?! ...Nooo, let go of me!!"

The girls were taken outside screaming. Next time, another native came in and raised me to my feet roughly.

[Native]
"Kamana... Begna, serabina!"

[Kosaku]"Leave me alone, asshole! ... What are you going to do to me?!"

Holding me with both arms, he took me outside where I couldn't see the girls anywhere. They were taken away already.

[Kosaku]
"Shit... Let me go, damn you!! Where did you take them?! ... What the hell do you want with us?!"​

[Native]
"Shura... Kamana, Slento!"

119-village-evening.png


The ominous booming of drums echoed throughout the village. Surrounded by the darkness of the night, I could see a place in the middle of the village lit brightly by the torches. The drumming seemed to be coming from there. Tied up, I was led by the natives to the center of the village.

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-what the?"​

I raised my voice involuntarily. I was taken to a place where some kind of altar was set up to perform a ritual. In the circular space in front of the altar, a number of natives were dancing. The shadows of the wildly dancing natives were eerily writhing on the ground in the torchlight. In the center of the open space, a figure of a shaman was praying up to the heavens.

[Native]
"Fresa, Heera! ...Banga, Mona!"

With my hands still tied, I was brought to a corner of the altar and roughly thrown down on it.

[Kosaku]
"Ouch... Goddamn it, what the hell is going on?"​

120-ritual-watching.png

[Professor]
"How does it feel to gaze upon the ritual from the special seat?... Kosaku-kun."

[Kosaku]
"P-professor, Reiko, Yumi-chan... And Shiori-san!"​

Shiori-san was sitting on a throne set up on the altar. Her eyes looked strangely empty.

[Kosaku]
"What have you done to Shiori-san... You bastard!"​

[Professor]
"She seemed to be very excited, so I just gave her a sedative... She must've been tired from all the previous events."

[Kosaku]
"How dare you do that... You're Shiori-san's husband!"​

[Professor]
"Hmph, be silent... I have no reason to explain myself to you!"

...*thud*!!

[Kosaku]
"... Guha?!"​

The professor stood up and kicked me in the gut... His shoe caught me in the pit of my stomach, and I started choking.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what... Are you going to do to us!!"​

121-ritual-professor.png

[Professor]
"*sigh*... As I've told you before. I'm going to feed you all to that tentacle monster."

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... That was the original plan we had in mind when we brought you here, you know?"

[Kosaku]
"What exactly is that monster... Professor, what the hell are you trying to do?"​

[Professor]
"You want to know? ... If you want to know it so much, I'll tell you so you can die in peace."
(冥土のみやげ - meido no miyage, pleasant memory to take to the afterlife/good memory/something that makes one feel one can die in peace)

The professor smiled meaningfully and began to speak slowly.
(long exposition follows)

[Professor]
"Three years ago, a research team under my command shipwrecked in these waters. The members of the team were scattered in the wreck and were washed ashore on this island. Some wandered through the jungle, some met the natives and arrived at this village. I was received by the natives as a guest and they told me of the monsters that have inhabited this island since ancient times."

[Professor]
"Those monsters possess a number of viscous tentacle appendages, and when they seize other creatures, they feed on their life energy... They also possess superior life force, and it seems that the spears of the natives were not enough to exterminate them."

[Kosaku]
"So... It was one of these monsters earlier?"​

[Professor]
"Yes... The natives learned to surround their village with a strong fence to prevent the monsters from attacking them, but every time they would go outside, they were worried about the casualties. I was fascinated by the story. How helpful it would be to my research if I could solve the mystery of their life force, their immortality?"

[Kosaku]
"..."​

[Professor]
"The opportunity to see one of these monsters in person came unexpectedly soon... One of the team members who reached the tribe with me suddenly transformed into a monster."

[Kosaku]
"Transformed... Really?"​

[Professor]
"Indeed... Haven't you noticed? The extraordinary thing about the plants that grow on this island."

[Kosaku]
"?... What the hell are you talking about?"​

[Professor]
"All of the plants on this island have been considered extinct since time immemorial... Some of them have never been discovered by anyone before. And among them was a fruit that could transform a human being into a monster, when eaten."

[Kosaku]
"Just by eating the fruit... That will turn you into that horrible monster!?... Nonsense!... There's no way such a fruit exists..."​

[Professor]
"Actually, it is very real... I didn't believe my eyes at first. Apparently, it was only later that we discovered that that fruit contained ingredients that could throw a person's genetic information out of whack..."

[Professor]
"Anyway, I wanted to make a thorough study of this monster... So I made a proposition to the natives. In exchange for their full cooperation with my research, I would wipe out the monsters in the jungle so that there were no more victims."

[Professor]
"Assisted by the natives, I have managed to contain most of the monsters in the temple underground. I was idolized as a hero by them, and now they do what I tell them to do. Eventually radio contact was made and before long we were rescued and returned to our country."

[Professor]
"As soon as the government learned of the monsters' existence, they immediately offered me assistance. They must have thought that the monster's life force could be used for military purposes. This was a chance for me to study the monsters to the fullest. Naturally, I've accepted their offer. I want to complete this study by any means necessary. If only, if only I could finish this..."

[Kosaku]
"You are insane... Professor!!"​

[Professor]
"Whatever you say... Soon you'll be monster food anyway."

[Kosaku]
"...Ku!"​

[Professor]
"Now, the time for chit-chat is over... The ritual is about to reach its climax."
(kuraimakkusu)

The professor said coldly, then looked up at the space in front of him. The drumming got louder, and the natives shouted. Soon, a girl was brought under the altar with masked natives by her sides.

123-ritual-linna.png

[Kosaku]
... L-linna!?​

[Reiko]
"Heh-heh... The other natives were willing to help us, but this girl was the only one who rebelled. She's one of the shamans who were protecting this village for generations... She doesn't think too well of us, doesn't she?"

122-ritual-yumi.png

[Reiko]
"I heard that she ran away and hid outside the village and was a lot of nuisance for us until now, but that's over today... You will all be fed to the monsters together... Take her away."

When Reiko gave the order, the natives took Linna and left. Underneath the altar, masked aborigines were dancing madly like possessed by demons. There was a loud shout, and all of the captured girls were brought out to the center of the square.

[Kosaku]
"A-ayano-san, Monica... Linna!!"​

Stripped of all clothes and screaming, they were tied to the stakes erected in the center of the square. The natives continued to dance like crazy around it.

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what the hell... Are they going to do?!"​

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh, you can tell by looking... It's a ritual to boost the vitality of the sacrifice before it's offered to the monster."

Reiko chuckled, alternating between the nightmarish spectacle unfolding under the altar and my face. Then, amidst the sound of drums and the shouts of the natives, the screams of Monica echoed across the altar.

[Monica]
"NO!... S-stooop!"

[Kosaku]
"... M-monica!?"​

One of the swarm of natives leaned on Monica's bound body and rubbed her breasts.

[Monica]
"Ahhh... N-nooo!"

Monica screamed and wriggled, trying hard to escape, but she was no match for the man and was forced to open her legs wide open.

124-ritual-monica.png

[Monica]
"N-nooo... Someone help me..."

Removing his straw dress, the native brought his erect penis close to the base of Monica's wide-open thighs. Forgetting that I was tightly tied up, I screamed at the professor furiously.

[Kosaku]
"Make them stop!!"​

Without any change in the expression, the professor glanced in my direction and said in a calm voice as he quickly returned his gaze to the natives.

[Professor]
"This ritual of theirs... There's nothing I can do to stop them. And, I don't want to ruin my friendship with them just yet."

[Kosaku]
"Damn it... This is barbaric and needs to stop!!"​

I was tied up with my hands and feet and tried to crawl on the floor to get to the professor's feet. Each time I fought back, the rope would bite into my limbs, and eventually, blood started seeping out, but I didn't care.

[Reiko]
"This will all be over soon... Please be quiet."

...*thud*!

Reiko kicked me in the stomach annoyed. I tumbled below the altar from the force of it.

[Kosaku]
"...Gua!"​

Holding back the intense pain, I could now hear Ayano's voice in my ears.

125-ritual-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"...S-stoooop!!"

[Kosaku]
"... A-ayano-san..."​

[Ayano]
"Agu! ...Nnnn... S-stop..."

Her scream turned into a muffled moan when a cock was forced into her mouth.

[Kosaku]
F-fuuuck... I can't do anything...?!​

Gnashing my teeth, I squirmed, desperately trying to undo the ropes. But the more the rope moved, the more it dug into my skin and never seemed to unravel.

[Ayano]
"Nnn... Nguuu... Aaah!"

Holding down Ayano's hips, the native rhythmically moved his body. Tortured from the front and the back, Ayano kept gasping and writhing her body.
(rizumicaruni)

[Ayano]
"S-stooop... Enough..."

Even amid the beating of the drums and the shouts of the natives, I heard these muffled gasps strangely clearly. As I rolled, writhing on the ground, Reiko's voice came down from the top of the altar.

[Reiko]
"Stop wasting your time. You can't untie that rope no matter how hard you struggle... Or are you just doing it to hide your excitement?"

CHOICE

はっきり否定する - Deny it
何も言い返さない - Stay silent

CHOICE 1
[Kosaku]
"Don't be ridiculous!!... Damn it, stop it already!"​

I looked back at Reiko, ranting and raving.

CHOICE 2
Pretending not to hear Reiko's voice, I continued to struggle even more.

(okay, that was even more lame)
(merge)

My member was definitely hard and erect, but it wasn't because I was really aroused. I kept struggling even more to break free. Meanwhile, more natives took turns to assault the sacrificial girls.

[Linna]
"Ahhh... Ahhh, sitapa..."

[Kosaku]
"... L-linna..."​

[Linna]
"Nnn... Nnnnn... Fule, parana..."

129-ritual-linna.png

The native was penetrating Linna's body from behind with his thick cock. She was moaning painfully, as yet another one was shoved down her throat.

[Linna]
"Nnnn... Naa!... *cough* *cough*!!"

With her hair grabbed, Linna was violently choked, as the native shoved his flesh deeper and deeper into her mouth.

[Native]
"...Uooo!!"

The native plunged his cock deeply into Linna's mouth and let out a beastly roar.

[Linna]
"Nguu...Ahhh!"

The white cloudy liquid oozed out of Linna's mouth and ran down her slender neck. Ignoring her cries and begging, the other native continued to move his hips.

[Linna]
"Ahh... Parano..."

The maniacal feast went on endlessly. The blood-soaked rope dug into my numb wrists. At times I just stared at it dementedly, forgetting that I was struggling to loosen my ties. The natives who filled the space eventually began to dance around it, leaving behind limp and immobile sacrificial girls.

A man, dressed as a shaman, proceeded to the center and held out his hand toward the heavens. The hysterical beating of the drums had subsided, and the natives who had been dancing madly had fallen silent.

[Professor]
"The ritual is now over... Now, it's time for the sacrifice."

Professor Hazama shouted while rising from his throne. The girls were finally untied, and their limp bodies were being carried away by the natives. Half-relaxed, the natives came to my side and tried to put me up on my feet. And then... My body started to change.

[Kosaku]
"..."​

My head was throbbing in pain and my thoughts were getting blurry. I moaned low as the center of my body burned hot and I felt power surging from deep inside me.

[Kosaku]
"...GURURURURURU..."​

The natives, who were trying to pick me up, stopped moving as if they had noticed something. The next moment, something surging inside me exploded, uncontrollably, making me jump.

[Kosaku]
"...GUUUUUAAAA?!"​

The rope that held me creaked and then finally snapped. My body swelled up enormously.

[Native]
"Vata!?... Yapano, metamona!!"

Screaming in horror, the natives tried to get away from me. Reaching out with the tentacles that sprung from my abdomen, I grabbed a native.

[Native]
"Vamo! ... Ni, Kera, vamo!"

He screamed and tried to escape frantically, but he was no match for my power. I sucked out the life energy from his body in one gulp.

[Kosaku]
"...SHAAAAAAAAAA!!"​

A sense of fulfillment, similar to ecstasy, washed over my body. Before I knew it, I was turning into that horrible monster.
(ekusutashi)

[Aboriginal] "Metamona!... Yapana, Metamona, Greciano!!"

The area around the square, which had been quiet until now, suddenly became loud with the panicked voices of the natives.

[Professor]
"Ku... That guy, he ate the fruit!? Reiko-kun, calm down the natives!!... We've got to catch him alive before he goes on a rampage!"

On the altar, the professor was looking at me with a look of disbelief on his face. I was thinking about what to do in this situation.

CHOICE

暴れまわる - Go on a rampage
逃げ出す - Run away

CHOICE 1 - Go on a rampage
[Kosaku]
"...SHAAAAAAAA!!"​

I let out a scream that was no longer human, moved to the center of the square, and spread my tentacles everywhere.

[Native]
"Hiiiiiiii! ... Vamo, vamorana!"

Catching the fleeing natives at random, my hideous tentacles sucked their life energy. The air was filled with the screams and shouts of the natives, and the whole place was in a panic.
(panikku)

[Professor]
"What are you doing! ... We need to do something about him!"

Standing on top of the altar, the professor was yelling. I made a sudden move, kicking away the scurrying natives and headed for the altar.

[Reiko]
"Stand back, please!... It's dangerous, professor!"

...JURURURURURU!!

Reiko quickly defended the professor, and the tentacle I sent at him swooshed through the air.

[Professor]
"Damn it, they just do what they please... That... Let's get that thing!"

[Reiko]
"Huh?... B-but isn't that thing still developing?"

[Professor]
"I don't care... In theory, it is complete. Besides, I have to experiment with it at some point anyway."

[Reiko]
"...I-i understand, this way."

On the other side of the altar, the professor and Reiko were running away. I noticed Shiori-san and Yumi-chan, who were left on the altar.
(it just occurred to me that Yumi didn't have a word this whole scene. looks like the script writer completely forgot about her, which is even more surprising, considering she's right there on the images)

They both laid limp and unconscious, not even twitching.
(oh yeah, Yumi is, err, she's just out. ignore the art)

[Kosaku]
...SHURURURURURU...​

I moved their bodies to a place that seemed relatively safe and slithered off the altar.

[Native]
"... Kera, greciano!"

...byuh!

The natives had finally recovered from their panic. As I returned to the open space, spears came flying at me.

[Kosaku]
"...GUAAAAAA!!"​

Waving my tentacles, I brushed the spears off. Some of them pierced my body, but a spear wound wasn't fatal for me now. Grabbing another kicking and resisting native with my tentacles, I sucked his essence out of him.

[Native]
"Haloah... Haloah, toka, gera!"

The sacrificial victims were being carried by the natives into the village.

[Kosaku]
"...SHAAAAAAAA!!"​

Spreading my tentacles, I swept the carriers off their feet and picked the women up.

[Kosaku]
"...GURURURURURU..."​

Gradually, I felt my thoughts fade and the beastly desire to feed grow instead.

[Kosaku]
Th-this is bad...​

The desire to suck the energy out of Ayano and the others in my arms was raising in me. Mind and body, I was turning into that repulsive creature.

[Kosaku]
While I have my own will... I need to find the professor and Reiko...​

I was going to rob them of their life energy. I knew it was the only way I could save the girls. I've gently lowered them onto a relatively safe place. I looked around the square again, searching for the professor... And then...

...Zaku!!

[Kosaku]
"...GUAAA?!"​

Spears thrown by a new group of natives from the other side of the square thrust into my body. The professor and Reiko were standing at the back of the group, apparently, directly controlling the natives. I moved straight toward them.

[Kosaku]
"...SHAAAAAAAAA!!"​

[Professor]
"Don't waver... Once more, throw your spears together!... Fire!!"

...Byuuu!!

As I tried to dive head-on into the group, the natives hurled a flood of spears. I swung my tentacles, shoving most of them aside.

[Kosaku]
"...GUOOOOOOOOO!!"​

Not caring about the spears, I reached out with my tentacles and tried to grab the professor's body.

...SHUUUUU...

[Kosaku]
Huh?... Wh-what...?​

I looked at my wound once more. My body was changing, starting from the part where the spear was stuck in it.

[Kosaku]
N-no way... I'm going back to being human?!​

A sensation of great power left my body. The tentacles that were almost reaching the professor, pulled into my body again. And the wound where the spear got stuck in my body started hurting a lot.

[Kosaku]
*cough*... I-is this it?...​

I was back in full human form, and the spear was stuck deep in my body. I crumpled face down on the ground.

[Native]
"I, Garo!... Dana, greciano!!"

The natives who came running to me were shouting around.

[Reiko]
"This is... Unsalvageable, isn't it?"

Reiko, who came in from among the natives, said in an emotionless voice as soon as she saw me.

[Professor]
"Well, that was a sufficient demonstration of the new drug's capabilities, wasn't it?"

[Reiko]
"As you can see, professor. I've only applied it to the spearhead, and it worked perfectly."

[Professor]
"Hmmm... It was something I've been wanting to test out since I'm still developing it, but it did kill two birds with one stone."

Overhearing their conversation, I learned that I had been brought back to humanity by the professor. His research had already progressed that far.

[Professor]
"Really, when did he start eating that fruit... I had to go to all that trouble. Anyway... We have to take care of this mess. Shiori and the sacrifices are alive and well, aren't they?"

[Reiko]
"Yes... It seems that he had awareness even while he was a monster, right?... This man moved them to a safe place."

[Professor]
"Hmm... I see... But he's no good to us... He's almost dead. We'll be able to use his data for future research. I'd like you to store his corpse for me."

[Reiko]
"I understand... Professor."

[Professor]
"Let's go, there's still work to be done."

After he said this coldly, I heard the professor's footsteps leaving. That sound... Was the last thing I heard before I died...

114-end4.png

END No6

(i think this whole scene explains how Kosaku died so fast from a single spear with Monica: more hentacle essence sucking = more power)

CHOICE 2 - Run away
I made a sudden move, kicking away the scurrying natives and headed for the altar.

[Professor]
"Whoa... He's after me?!"

[Reiko]
Professor, careful... Back off!

...JURUJURUJURUJURU!!

I stretched my tentacles towards the top of the altar, ignoring the professor and Reiko, and taking Shiori-san and Yumi-chan.

[Professor]
"O-oh dear!... Shiori!?"

I quickly retracted my tentacles, leaving the panicking professor and Reiko behind, and started rampaging further around the square, while holding the girls.

[Professor]
"Damn... Good lord!!"

I saw the professor angrily gritting his teeth on the altar, and I made my way straight out of the village.

[Reiko]
"After him... I don't care if you kill him... And bring back the sacrifices!"

I broke through the wooden fence and rushed out into the jungle.

[Native]
"Kera, greciano!... Gella, ba, vikta!"

The natives were chasing after me with torches. Whether because I was unaccustomed to my body or because I was holding everyone else in my arms, I've been getting desperate, and I felt like my pursuers were going to catch up with me at any moment.

[Kosaku]
Goddamn it... Why am I so slow?​

My head was getting dizzy... Or rather, I was slowly losing the ability to think like a human being.

[Kosaku]
T-this is... Not good.​

The desire to suck the essence out of Shiori-san and the others in my embrace was growing inside me. Body and mind I was turning into that horrible creature.

...Byuuuu!!

The spears thrown by the natives came swooshing from behind. Looking back, I saw that they were almost near.

[Native]
"Ni, iskena... Greciano!!"

...byuh!!... Byuh, byuh!

One after another, the spears were hurled at me. I frantically fleed through the jungle, waving my tentacles and brushing off the spears.

[Kosaku]
R-really not good...​

I could notice that I was losing more and more of my human consciousness, leaving only a beastly desire and an instinct for self-defense. I checked each of the girls' faces, one by one. All of them seemed to be limp and unconscious.

[Kosaku]
If I get caught... We're all going to be taken advantage of by the professor...​

Even if they survived, they'd all end up as monster food. Then, wouldn't it be the same thing if I were to drain them of their essence right here?... That was what I've been thinking. There was very little time left for me to be myself. The natives were closing in on us from behind.

[Kosaku]
I... What should I do...​

CHOICE

みんなの精気を吸い取る - Suck everyone's essence
みんなをおいて逃げる - Run away with everyone

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
Right... I'd rather kill them with my own hands...​

I stopped moving and tried to suck the energy out of the girls. And when I did...

...Zaku!!

[Kosaku]
"...guh!"​

The spear thrown by one of the natives plunged deep into my body, and I emitted a scream that was not that of a human. But a wound like this couldn't be fatal to me now. Ignoring it, I tried to focus on absorbing the girls' life energy.

CHOICE 2
[Kosaku]
After all... I can't really kill them myself...​

I stopped moving and gently lowered the girls to the ground. I wanted to get away from them as much as possible while I had some humanity left. When I become a monster completely... I don't know if I'll be able to restrain myself from attacking them.

[Kosaku]
Goodbye... Everyone...​

When I looked around at everyone's faces and was about to start moving deeper into the jungle...

...Zaku!!

[Kosaku]
"...guh!"​

The spear thrown by one of the natives plunged deep into my body, and I emitted a scream that was not that of a human. But a wound like this couldn't be fatal to me now.

(merge)

...SHUUUUUU...

[Kosaku]
Huh?...Wh-what...?​

My body was changing, starting from the part where the spear was stuck in it. I looked at the wound involuntarily.

[Kosaku]
N-no way... I'm going back to being human?!​

A sensation of great power left my body. The tentacles that were holding the girls pulled into my body again. And the wound where the spear got stuck in my body started hurting a lot.

[Kosaku]
*cough*... I-is this it?...​

I was back in full human form, and the spear was stuck deep in my side. I crumpled face down to the ground.

[Native]
"I, Garo! ... Dana, greciano!"

The natives who came running to me were shouting around.

[Reiko]
"This is... Unsalvageable, isn't it?"

Reiko, who came in from among the natives, said in an emotionless voice as soon as she saw me.

[Professor]
"... The results of the new drug?"

[Reiko]
"As you can see, Professor. I've only applied it to the spearhead, and it worked perfectly."

[Professor]
"Hmmm... It was something I've been wanting to test out since I'm still developing it, but it did kill two birds with one stone."

Overhearing their conversation, I learned that I had been brought back to humanity by the professor.His research had already progressed that far.

[Professor]
"Reiko-kun... Take Shiori and the sacrifices back to the village."

[Reiko]
"... Understand."

[Professor]
"Is this guy... Still alive?"

[Reiko]
"... Yes, but... He's almost dead."

[Professor]
"We'll be able to use his data for future research... You'll need to take him back to the village, too."

[Reiko]
"I understand... Professor."

[Professor]
"... Come on, we need to return to the village."

I could hear professor Hazama coldly stating that. That voice... Was the last thing I heard before I died...

Strap Yourselves In
PART 11: DAY 3 - SPELUNKING

(now that the pinku banana line is over, let's go back to where we ate it at day 2 and then not do that. the game proceeds the same, except Reiko does not ominously ask you in the evening about eating the banana. skip all that until the ritual, which also proceeds the same until the end)



[Professor]
"The ritual is now over... Now, it's time for the sacrifice."

Professor Hazama shouted while rising from his throne. The sacrificial girls were finally untied, and their limp bodies were being carried away by the natives. Half-relaxed, the natives came to my side and tried to put me up on my feet.

We were taken to the village entrance and were locked in a bamboo cage. Led by the shaman, natives with torches were lining up one after another. Eventually, they started to walk out of the village carrying us deep into the jungle.

Illuminated by flickering torchlight the long procession moved through the darkness. The procession made its way through the jungle with the low thuds of drums echoing in the air.

Eventually the line stopped, and we were taken out of the cage. There was a suspicious temple there.

134-temple-night.png

[Kosaku]
Th... this is...​

As we all watched, the shaman stepped up to the stone entrance, muttering something like an incantation, and slipped something into the stone door. It opened with the rumbling sound. It was dark inside and I couldn't see anything, but it looked like there was a cave inside.

136-temple-professor.png

[Professor]
"Regrettably... It's time to say goodbye. You will all go inside the cave now. It's full of monsters that we've trapped. They've only been feeding them to the point of not dying, so I'm sure they're hungry."

[Professor]
"According to the natives, it's like a maze inside, and it's quite large... If you're clever enough, you might be able to evade those monsters. But it seems that no one has ever done that before."

The professor laughed really strangely, then suddenly returned to his calm tone and continued.

[Professor]
"... Untie their ropes."

The ropes that bound us were untied. With both arms held by the natives, we were taken near the entrance. Behind the stone door there was a dark cave that led into the depths. Shiori-san stood in front of the entrance, supported by the natives.

137-temple-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"..."

Perhaps because of the sedative the professor said he gave her, her face was expressionless, her gaze was hollow.

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori-san!!"​

I was dragged along by the natives, calling out to Shiori-san. For a moment, her eyes seemed to twitch in response.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Get a grip, Shiori-san!"​

[Shiori]
"K-kosaku... San? K-kosaku-san? ... Kosaku-san!!"



As if waking up from a dream, Shiori-san's eyes sparkled with life. She was about to run out in front of me when one of the natives grabbed her arm.

[Shiori]
"No... Let go of me... Kosaku-san!!"

[Professor]
"They're going to be sacrificed to the monsters now... Shiori, you need to stay calm for a little while longer."

[Shiori]
"Th-that's so awful... Michio-san, please. Make them stop!"

[Professor]
"I can't do that even if you ask me to... Shiori."

[Shiori]
"Why do they have to be sacrificed? They've done nothing wrong... Make them stop, Michio-san!"

[Professor]
"..."

Professor Hazama kept a grim look on his face as if he had swallowed something bitter and stayed silent.
(苦虫をかみつぶしたような - "as if having swallowed a bitter bug")

[Shiori]
"... Michio-san!"

[Professor]
"What are you doing!... Now, get these sacrifices into the cave!"

The professor shouted sharply and we were thrown into a cave.

[Ayano]
"Noooo?!... Help meeee!!"

[Monica]
"...NO?!"

[Girl]
"... Ahhh!!"

Right after the entrance there was a steep staircase. Pushed by the natives, Ayano and others rolled down the stairs, screaming.

[Native]
"Haloah... Haloah, Vamore!"

[Kosaku]
"Shiiiit... Shiori-san!!... Woooah!?"​

...bam!!

I was pushed into the cave just like everyone else. I looked up and saw the professor's silhouette in the torchlight.

[Professor]
"Bon voyage... My dear sacrifices. I pray you won't suffer much."

The professor's chuckling voice echoed through the cave. Soon the entrance door slowly started to close with a heavy rumbling.

...*rumbling*...

[Ayano]
"... Aaah..."

Looking up at the door, Ayano sighed in despair. Just then, behind the closing door, a commotion broke out.

[Professor]
"W-wait... Stop, Shiori!"

[Shiori]
"No... I can't just leave those people alone!"

[Professor]
"Someone... Someone, stop Shiori!"

Just as the stone door was about to close, Shiori-san jumped into the cave.

[Kosaku]
"...Sh-shiori-san!?"​

...*BOOM*!!

The stone door closed with a heavy sound, leaving the panicking professor and the natives outside. Inside the cave, an eerie silence enveloped us.

138-cave-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"Kosaku-san... Guys..."

[Kosaku]
"Wh-why the hell did you jump in... Shiori-san! These caves are crawling with horrible monsters!"​

[Shiori]
"I'm sorry, guys... I just didn't want everyone else to be treated so badly..."

[Kosaku]
"..."​

Her voice was shaky and tearful. I got choked up and couldn't say anything back.

[Kosaku]
"A-anyway... Let's think about what we're going to do."​

I couldn't think of any words to comfort Shiori-san, so I looked around instead. There was glowing moss here and there, dimly lighting the inside of the cave and I could see our surroundings. The place was resemling a hall, with three narrow passages lined up against the back wall.

Ayano, Monica, and that native girl were exhausted and sank down to the floor right there.
(we, of course, know that she's Linna but in this playthrough I've skipped all the chances to have Shiori talk to her)

141-cave-monica.png

[Monica]
"What to do... Tosaku, is there something we can do?"

[Ayano]
"Yeah... We're stuck here, it's hopeless. Sooner or later... The monsters will come from somewhere, and we'll be eaten by them for nothing."

[Kosaku]
"What are you talking about, guys! ... If you give up, that's the end of it, right?"​

145-cave-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"Then... What do we do?!"

Looking exhausted, Monica and Ayano were about to cry. Shiori-san went to their side and gently held their shoulders.

[Mysterious girl]
"Cadreena... Cadreena, mi, nikurisu!"

[Kosaku]
"... What are you talking about?"​

The native girl, who had been so calm and content before, suddenly shouted something at me, holding out her hand.

[Shiori]
"So important... To me... Give it back...?"

[Kosaku]
"Y-you understand her?... Shiori-san!"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... I'm not sure, but it's very similar to the language I know... Just a moment, I'm going to talk to her."

Shiori-san said so and muttered something like a spell to the girl.

[Shiori]
"Vi, ni, inoma, ya... Ni, inoma... Ya"

[Mysterious girl]
"...?!"

143-cave-linna-shiori.png

The girl stared at Shiori-san with a surprised look on her face. I had no idea what she was saying, but it seemed that Shiori-san's words were getting through to the girl.

[Shiori]
"Vi, ni, inoma, ya... Vata, ya, nima?"

[Mysterious girl]
"Nima?... L-linna..."

Even though she looked puzzled, the girl seemed to have lost her guard just a little bit.

[Kosaku]
"What did you say to her... Shiori-san?"​

[Shiori]
"It seems that her name is Linna... Her family has been 'keepers of the holy place' for generations in the village."

[Kosaku]
"... You mean someone who protects the sacred place?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... This temple is the holy place, I guess?"

[Kosaku]
"Right... Can you ask her if there's another way out of this cave?"​

[Shiori]
"Okay... I'll try."

As Shiori-san said that, she started talking to Linna again. Even though I didn't understand a word of what was said, I could grasp the atmosphere of the slow conversation. Shiori-san, who had been talking softly, eventually turned to face me.

[Shiori]
"Unfortunately... It looks like there's only one way out of this cave over there."

[Kosaku]
"Son of a bitch... I knew it."​

I dropped my shoulders in disappointment... At this rate we could only wait for the monsters to attack us.

[Shiori]
"But... There may be a way to save us."

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what?!... What is it?!"​

Just when I asked Shiori-san with a glimmer of hope in my heart...

...*slurp* *slurp* *slurp*...

I heard a spooky sound coming from the depths of the left passage, like something damp was being dragged.

[Ayano]
"... Th-that's the monster...?!"

...*slurp* *slurp* *slurp*...

The eerie sound of the monster's movement echoed through the cave, getting louder and louder. It looked like it was coming towards us.

[Monica]
"No... I-I think it's getting closer..."

Monica crouched on the spot and covered her ears with a shudder.

[Kosaku]
"This isn't a good place to be... So let's get out of here."​

I looked over at them and said that, trying to keep my somewhat trembling voice calm.

[Kosaku]
The monster seems to be approaching from the cave on the left... So we're going to run...​

CHOICE

右の洞窟へ逃げ込む - Run to the right passage
真ん中の洞窟へ逃げ込む - Run to the middle passage

(we'll leave the second choice for later updates)

CHOICE 1

[Kosaku]
"Let's go into the right passage... Everyone follow me."​

140-cave.png

I got them to their feet so they could follow me, and we went into the passage on the right. We swiftly made our way through the passage, followed by the sounds of the monster.

Twisting and turning, the dimly lit cave went on and on. We'd been going through the cave for a while, and I stopped. I could no longer hear the signs of the approaching monster from behind us.

[Kosaku]
"Phew... Looks like the monster isn't chasing us anymore."​

I sighed softly. In the dim light, I could feel the girls' tension easing.

141-cave-monica.png

[Monica]
"I don't like this... We got away now, but it won't always be like that in the future... I can't do this, Tosaku."

Monica said to me in a tearful voice. Certainly, we could not just run around in circles in the cave.

[Kosaku]
"Well... If it goes on like this, we're just waiting to get eaten by a monster."​

My brow furrowed as if I had swallowed something bitter.
(second time this expression comes up)

142-cave-shiori-calm.png

[Shiori]
"Kosaku-san... About what I was going to tell you..."

[Kosaku]
"Y-yes, Shiori-san... Let's hear the rest of it."​

[Shiori]
"Okay... I understand..."

Shiori-san began to speak slowly.

[Shiori]
"This temple is now used by Hazama to keep the monsters locked away, but originally it was dedicated to the guardian gods of this island... In ancient times, these gods lived in prosperity on an island many times larger than this one."

[Shiori]
"But at some point there was a big quarrel between them, and eventually some of them created these monsters to rule over the other gods. The monsters used their overwhelming power to annihilate the other gods... Though in that strife the island that was so prosperous was also devastated. The remaining gods were so terrified of that that they sank the desolate island with the monsters into the ocean... Apparently, the only thing left above was this island."

[Kosaku]
"It's a myth that's passed down on this island... So?"​

I stared at Shiori-san's face and prompted her to continue her tale....

That was not what I wanted to hear.

[Shiori]
"Deep in this labyrinthine cave is a shrine that is said to have been used by the gods. And Linna says that if we go to that shrine and perform certain rituals, we might be able to destroy those monsters."

[Kosaku]
"Is that how you think we might be saved?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes, that's right... Linna says so."

[Kosaku]
"What an unbelievable story... Really, that's how we're going to defeat these monsters?"​

[Shiori]
"If I undertood her correctly, but... I don't know what else to do, and I'd rather do something than nothing..."

[Kosaku]
"... If you can beat the monsters that way, why didn't she perform the ritual before?"​

[Shiori]
"It's a secret ritual passed down only by Linna's family who have been shamans of this island's guardian deity for generations. It's a ritual that they've been told never to go through no matter what..."

I was at my wits' end, feeling overwhelmed. Sure, it was better than doing nothing, but there was no guarantee that we'd be able to defeat the monsters this way.

145-cave-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"Let's try it... Kosaku-kun."

Ayano-san, who had remained silent until then, muttered.

[Monica]
"Yes, it's a whole lot better than being attacked by a monster without doing anything about it."

Following Ayano's lead, Monica seemed to be feeling the same.

[Kosaku]
"Okay... Let's go to that shrine then, shall we?"​

I finally made up my mind, looked around at everyone and said that... Their faces were a little bit more hopeful now than before.

[Kosaku]
"... But how do we get to that shrine?"​

[Shiori]
"Going to the temple... I'll tell Linna."

143-cave-linna-shiori.png

Shiori-san was talking to Linna in the local language. Linna gave a small nod at Shiori-san's words and reached out her hand towards me.

[Linna]
"Gabala... Gabala, teresia."

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-what is she saying?"​

[Shiori]
"You took her necklace, and she wants it back."
(nekkuresu)

[Kosaku]
"... Necklace?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... She said she can't perform the ritual without it."

Linna was looking straight at me and reaching out with her hand.

[Kosaku]
"Necklace... Maybe you mean this one?"​

I pulled the necklace out of my pocket, the one I'd taken from Linna the first time I ran into her.

[Linna]
"...Teresia! Lu, mina."

Linna snatched the necklace from my hand with shining eyes.

[Kosaku]
"Well, then, can you guide us to that shrine?"​

We were just about to follow Linna's lead...

...*splash*!!

[Kosaku]
"?!... Wh-what was that sound?"​



Suddenly, an weird sound echoed in the darkness, as if something mucuos had fallen to the floor. We looked around with an ominous premonition.

[Monica]
"Hi!?... Eeeeeeek!!"

[Kosaku]
"...M-monica!!"​

A shadow rose up from beneath her feet and suddenly attacked Monica. Tentacles flew out of the darkness and grabbed her body, dragging her deeper into the cave.

[Kosaku]
"M-monica!?... Damn it!"​

[Monica]
"...N-noooooo!?"

In the back of the cave, the monster that had pulled Monica to it had its slimy tentacles crawling all over her body.

144-cave-monica-hentai.png

[Monica]
"Ahhh... Let me go!"

Disgusting, obscene tentacles crawled over Monica's body as she struggled to escape their clutches. The sloshing, wet sound echoed through the cave, overlapping with Monica's anguished gasps. The sticky liquid that flowed from the tips of the tentacles made her body look seductive in the dimness.

...GUJURURURURU...

The monster squirmed and shook as if giggling, preventing Monica from escaping and forcing her to open her legs wide.

[Monica]
"Ahhh, haaaa... S-stooop..."

The flesh of her inner thighs was parted, and the tentacles penetrated Monica's vagina.

[Monica]
"Nnnn, aaaa... Nooooo..."

Monica's scream echoed through the dark cavern, sounding strangely enticing with the obscene tentacles crawling across her entire body.

[Kosaku]
"M-monica!... Shit, I have to do something!"​

I looked around the cave and picked up a large rock that was split from the wall. I hurled it at the montser's body with all my strength.

...Gah!

...Shaaaaaaaa!!

The monster shrieked and the tentacles around Monica's body stopped moving for a moment. Taking that chance, I managed to remove the tentacles around her body and freed Monica.

141-cave-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"M-monica... Are you okay?!"​

[Monica]
"... T-tosaku..."

...JURUJURUJURUJURU...

The monster quickly recovered and struck again. Holding Monica's body I yelled as I ran.

[Kosaku]
"Guys, run... Run to the back of the cave!"​

They all screamed and ran to the back of the cave. The monster's sploshes followed us through the darkness.

...JURUJURUJURUJURU...

We ran chased by the sounds of the oncoming monster, and suddenly we came to a place that looked like a hall. There were many stalactites hanging from the ceiling of the cave like icicles.

[Kosaku]
"... What the...?!"​

I looked up at the ceiling, and had an idea. I picked up a rock under my feet and turned around to face the monster. It rushed at me with an eerie slurping sound.

[Kosaku]
"... Eat this!!"​

Shouting, I threw the rock as hard as I could at the ceiling.

...*rattle* *rattle*!!

[Kosaku]
"...*pants heavily*... I-is it dead?"​

An icicle-like rock pierced through the monster, and now it was motionless.

[Kosaku]
"S-somehow... We got rid of it..."​

I sighed in relief and wiped the sweat from my forehead with the back of my hand.

[Monica]
"Did we... Kill the monster...?"

[Kosaku]
"Yeah, somehow... More importantly, is everyone all right?"​

145-cave-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"Linna's not here... Kosaku-kun!"

[Kosaku]
"Eh, what!?... Now that you say it..."​

We wandered around looking for Linna, but she had disappeared.

[Ayano]
"This is weird. She was running in front of me until we got to this place... I wonder if she'd gone further into the cave?"

Ayano murmured with an anxious look on her face. On the other side of the hall, there was a gaping passage that led further into the depths.

[Kosaku]
"That Linna... Maybe she went into the shrine she was talking about earlier? We're in trouble, because we'll never make it there without her."​

Linna was the only one who could guide us through this labyrinthine cave without getting lost. Now that we were separated from her, we wouldn't even know where we were in the cave if we started walking around.

[Monica]
"What to do?... Tosaku."

CHOICE

リィナを追いかける - Chase Linna
洞窟の入り口に戻る - Go back to the entrance

CHOICE 1 - Chase after Linna
[Kosaku]
"You're right, let's go after Linna. She's the only one who knows how we might be able to save ourselves... One way or another, we have to find her."​

[Monica]
"All right, let's find her."

We went further along, looking for Linna. The dimly lit cave went on and on, twisting and turning and changing directions. We were moving through it, disoriented and unsure of where the hell we were.

[Kosaku]
"We can't find her. Where the hell have we gotten to?"​

Driven by impatience and anxiety, we hurried through the cave. But we still weren't able to find Linna.

145-cave-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"There was no fork in the road, and... If Linna-san is walking, I think it's the only way..."

Ayano said with a look that revealed her anxiety.

[Kosaku]
"Let's see... Anyway, let's go a little deeper."​

...*tap-tap-tap*...

[Kosaku]
"?... Shh, can you hear the footsteps?"​

We stopped walking and listened to the sounds around us. From the front of the cave came the sound of someone walking towards us.

...*tap-tap-tap*...

139-cave-ayano-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"It's... Getting closer. Is it Linna?"

Shiori-san said tilting her head a little and listening closely. The footsteps were getting closer and closer to us...

We were stunned when we saw the figures emerge from the depths of the cave.

150-cave-reiko-professor.png

[Kosaku]
"R-reiko... And professor Hazama!!"​

[Shiori]
"...M-michio-san..."

[Professor]
"Fuhahahaha!... I've finally found you, Shiori!... It took me some time. Now, come back with me in peace!"

[Shiori]
"I can't do that, Michio-san... If you intend to help me, you should help everyone else, too."

[Professor]
"I've told you many times that it's impossible... I can't afford to abandon this research right now."

[Shiori]
"If you can't help us all together, I can't go back either."

[Professor]
"Shiori... Why can't you understand it. I've always been thinking of you despite of your actions..."

[Shiori]
"If you really care about me, then get everyone out of here... Please, Michio-san."

[Professor]
"... Alright... If you insist, I won't argue."

[Shiori]
"You're going to help everyone...?"

[Professor]
"Yeah, I'll do what you say. So come back here."

Suddenly Shiori-san turned to face me... She looked confused whether to believe the professor.

CHOICE

いくなと言う - Say not to go
詩織に任せる - Leave it to Shori

CHOICE 1
[Kosaku]
"You can't believe a word the professor says... It's an obvious lie!"​

I told Shiori-san confidently. She looked like she didn't know what to do.

[Professor]
"You keep your mouth shut!... Shiori, have I ever broken my promise to you before? You're my wife, aren't you? ... Who are you going to believe, this youngster nobody, or me?"

The professor sounded genuinely sad, as if he was really trying to sway Shiori-san's feelings.

[Kosaku]
"Don't be fooled, Shiori-san... As soon as you're gone, the professor will betray us."​

Shiori-san stood there worried with both hands pressed to her face. There was a slight gap between us...

CHOICE 2
[Kosaku]
"This depends on Shiori-san's feelings... Think it over."​

I stared at Shiori-san speaking to her slowly. She turned to the professor and asked him once more to be sure.

[Shiori]
"Really... You really mean that, Michio-san?"

[Professor]
"Of course. Who do you think I am... Am I not your irreplaceable husband that married you in love?"

[Shiori]
"..."

The tense air filled the cave. We waited with bated breath for Shiori-san's next words.

[Shiori]
"All right, Michio-san. Get them out of the cave. I'll go to your side then."

[Professor]
"All right, all right... We'll walk ahead of you, so follow me."

The professor flashed Reiko a glance, then turned around sharply. As if expecting us to follow, he started to quickly walk through the cave.

[Kosaku]
"... Shiori-san..."​

[Shiori]
"It's all right... Now, let's leave this place."

We were just about to start walking after the professor...

(merge)

...*thud*!!

[Kosaku]
"!!... G-guaa!?"​

151-cave-reiko.png

When I was off my guard, Reiko's knifehand chopped right into my neck, and, sadly, I fell down on the spot.
(手刀 - tegatana is an actual martial arts term, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegatana)

[Monica]
"... T-tosaku!?"

[Ayano]
"... Kosaku-kun!!"

After a short pause professor Hazama turned around, grabbed Shiori-san's arm and forcibly hugged her.

[Shiori]
"N-nooo! ... K-kosaku-san!! My god, what happened to you!"

[Professor]
"Wahahaha!!... You're back in my hands at last, Shiori!"

[Shiori]
"M-michio-san... You tricked me, didn't you?!"

[Professor]
"There was no way around it... It's because you didn't come back to me on your own."

[Shiori]
"Y-you're terrible, Michio-san!... You've betrayed my feelings!"

[Professor]
"You're not thinking clearly right now... You'll change your mind after you stay with me for a while."

[Shiori]
"Let go of me... What are you going to do with Kosaku-san and the others?!"

[Professor]
"You don't have to think about that anymore... Come on, it's not safe in here. We need to get out of the cave."

[Shiori]
"N-nooo... Let me go!"

Taking her arm, the professor pushed the struggling Shiori-san. Her screams faded away into the cave.

[Kosaku]
"W-wait... Professor!"​

I screamed, holding the painfully throbbing back of my head, and tried to run after Shiori-san, but Reiko stood in my way.

[Professor]
"Reiko-kun... I'm counting on you to take care of the rest!"

[Reiko]
"I understand, professor... Please leave it to me."

Reiko stood in front of us with an ice-cold smile on her face.

[Kosaku]
"Get out of the way... I have no business with you!"​

[Reiko]
"But I have one with you... It's a simple thing, though, so it'll be over quickly."
(そっちになくてもこっちにはあるのよ - must be some japanese adage which i can't find an english equivalent of)

Reiko gave me a wry chuckle looking fully calm.

[Kosaku]
"If you won't back down, I'll have to go through you!"​

I jumped to Reiko. She dodged my punches with ease and thrown a knee kick to my body midair.
(panchi)

...*thud*!

[Reiko]
"Underestimating me... Your loss!"

[Kosaku]
"...Guhaa!"​

Reiko's knee was a perfect counter, digging deep into my gut. I bent over like a shrimp and rolled to the ground.
(kaunta)

[Ayano]
"... K-kosaku-kun!!"

[Monica]
"Tosaku...!!"

[Reiko]
"There's no way I can be beaten by an amateur like you... Moreover, I've got some training, heh heh."

Reiko chuckled mockingly as she looked down at me groaning at the intense pain pulsating in my stomach.

[Kosaku]
"*cough*... Who the hell are you..."​

[Reiko]
"Heh-heh... Now, who am I, indeed?"

Reiko cheerfully responded to my question.

[Reiko]
"Alright, I'll tell you... You're all doomed to be monster food soon anyway. I'm a member of a secret government agency."

[Kosaku]
"A secret... government agency?"​

[Reiko]
"That's right... You can easily guess that the professor's research is something that must not get to other countries, right? In other words, my role is to be the professor's bodyguard in case things go wrong, as well as watch over his research."

[Kosaku]
"*cough*... T-that's what I thought."​

[Reiko]
"Now, enough talking... I'm going to put you all out so you don't have to struggle."

Saying that, Reiko walked slowly over to the girls.

[Kosaku]
"G-guys... Get out of here, run!"​

Gathering all my energy, I rose shakily to my feet, and clung to Reiko's body.

[Reiko]
"It's useless to resist...Stop wasting your time."

Reiko smiled and swung her knifehand down at the back of my head.

...Gah!

...

Next thing I knew, I was lying sprawled in a cave. It was dark around me, quiet and empty. My whole body was in such a pain that I couldn't even move it. I stared at the ceiling and thought about it weakly.

[Kosaku]
What the hell... Happened to the others?...​

I was clinging to Reiko. I couldn't remember what happened after I passed out.

...ZURUZURUZURU...

Soon, eerie wet slurps could be heard from the depths of the cave.

...ZURUZURUZURU...

[Kosaku]
I'm... Going to be eaten by a monster...​
(thankfully, the game does not have an image for that)

My whole body was going numb, and no matter how much I struggled, I could not move. As I listened to the sounds of the monster approaching, I idly pondered on the moment of my death.

...ZURUZURUZURU...

Strangely enough, there was no fear... Maybe because all my senses were already numb.

...ZURUZURUZURU...

The only thing I was worried about was Shiori-san. What happened to her?

...ZURUZURUZURU...

Unable to accept professor Hazama's twisted love for her... Will Shiori-san live the rest of her life like that?...

...ZURUZURUZURU...

Tears spilled from my eyes. Shiori-san would continue to live a life that is more painful than death.

...

Eventually, slimy tentacles began to wrap around my body. I was lifted up by the monster like a doll.

...GURURURURURU...

I could hear the monster's growl of pleasure, and my consciousness was fading away. Right, I was going to die with this monster sucking my life energy from me. All that was going to be left of me would be a dried husk like a mummy.

...GURURURURURU...

As I prepared to die, I quietly closed my eyes. In the darkness, only the groans of the monster echoed forever...

114-end4.png
END No9

CHOICE 2 - Go back to the entrance
[Kosaku]
"... Right..."​

Without Linna, we would never make it through this labyrinthine cave to the shrine. And even if we could reach it, only she could perform the ritual.

[Kosaku]
"Let's go back to the cave entrance... It would be bad to walk around in a cave and just get lost... Let's wait for Linna while we somehow get past the monster there."​

[Monica]
"I understand... Let's go back to the cave entrance."

We made our way back to the entrance, looking around carefully. Fearful of the monster's presence, we walked through the cave subduing all signs of our presence. Soon, a hall appeared in front of us and we were standing near the entrance.

[Kosaku]
"‥‥‥?"​
[Kosaku]
"...?"​

I came to a halt just before the hall.

139-cave-ayano-shiori.png

[Ayano]
"What's wrong... Kosaku-kun?"

Ayano asked with an anxious look on her face. I put a finger to my mouth and cautioned everyone not to make a sound.

[Shiori]
"It's just a little... The wind is blowing, right?"

Shiori-san muttered in a whisper. She was right, the air in the cave had been stagnant before, but now the wind was blowing through it.

[Ayano]
"What... What's going on here?"

Ayano frowned while saying that.

[Kosaku]
"In other words... The fact that the wind is blowing in a cave where there should be no exit means that there could be a way out somewhere."​

I explained to Ayano in a whisper, and quietly took a look around the hall.

...*rumble*...

[Kosaku]
(Is... Is that?!)​

The door at the entrance opened with a clattering sound. I could faintly hear the professor speaking from outside.

[Professor]
"... Leave a lookout and tell the natives it's all right for them to go back to the village."

[Reiko]
"I've already told them... Professor."

[Professor]
"All right... Let's go, Reiko-kun. We need to find Shiori no matter what."

As the stone door opened, two people entered the cave. These figures were unmistakably professor Hazama and Reiko. After descending, they seemed to be discussing something in hushed tones as they looked at the three passages.

[Kosaku]
(Oh, no... I need to hide.)​

I hunkered down in the shadows and kept an eye on them.

[Reiko]
"... I'm sure the one that goes the deepest is the one in the middle."

[Professor]
"Alright... Then let's go to the passage in the middle."

They went into the middle passage, listening to their surroundings. I looked back at the girls behind me.

[Kosaku]
"The entrance to the cave is open... We need to get out now while we can!"​

I picked up the rocks under my feet and climbed the steps to the entrance. I hit the native standing at the stone door with the rock and beckoned everyone from outside.

146-temple-ayano.png

[Ayano]
"So we're out... I didn't think I'd ever get out again."

[Monica]
"It's too early to celebrate... It's nice to be out of the cave, but what are we going to do now?"

With a serious look on her face Monica asked me a question.

147-temple-monica.png

[Kosaku]
"Yes, Yumi-chan is still being held in the village... We have to go back to it and save her."​

[Ayano]
"Save Yumi-chan... All right. Let's go to the village."

[Kosaku]
"Okay... Let's go."​

We made our way to the village through the jungle wrapped in darkness. Inside the village, it was dark and quiet. After the ritual the natives seemed to have fallen asleep. We kept quiet and stealthily went through the buildings one by one.

[Ayano]
"Kosaku-kun... Did you find Yumi-chan?"

[Kosaku]
"No, not yet... Where did Monica go?"​

[Ayano]
"... Monica's looking through the buildings over there."

While we were whispering, Monica came running back.

148-village-monica-yumi.png

[Kosaku]
"Yumi-chan!... Thank God you're okay.​

[Yumi]
"... Kosaku-saaan!"

[Monica]
"Yumi was tied up in the storeroom... That's just awful."

[Kosaku]
"Oh, man... Anyway, I'm just glad you're okay."​

[Monica]
"Now that we're all here... What are we going to do, Tosaku?"

[Kosaku]
"... Right."​

In the shadows of the building we were going to discuss what to do next...

[Professor]
"Dammit... I didn't realize they sneaked out of the cave to switch places with us!"

[Reiko]
"They will definitely be back here to get Yumi, I'm sure of it."

[Professor]
"You've already secured the area around the village, haven't you?"

[Reiko]
"Without a doubt... Professor."

Professor Hazama and Reiko were walking around, talking loudly. It seemed that they've found out that we had escaped from the cave.

[Kosaku]
(R-really bad... We have to get out of here now.)​

We were waiting for them to pass by us and were about to leave the village.

[Voice]
"Loca... Yapana, loca!"

One of the natives spotted us and gave a sharp shout.

[Kosaku]
"Well, that's too bad...!"​

The masked natives came running out of the buildings. Before we knew it, we were surrounded by them.

149-village-reiko-professor.png

[Professor]
"So much pointless struggle, you're really annoying."

[Reiko]
"But there's no way out... This time, it's over."

[Professor]
"Men, tie them up... Bring Shiori over here."

On professor Hazama's orders we were tied up by the natives.

[Kosaku]
"Damn... Let me go! Dammit!"​

As the girls were being taken away by the natives, I fought back against them vigorously.

[Professor]
"Noisy bastard... I don't care if you hit him. Take him out!"

...Gah!

[Kosaku]
"... Gua?!"​

[Reiko]
"What do you want to do with him... Professor?"

[Professor]
"Let's see... Shall I use him as a guinea pig for the new drug I'm working on?"

I could hear Reiko and the professor talking. Then the natives hit me in the back of the head and I fainted.

...

How many days have passed since then?... I've been locked up in that dark prison. I was starting to think less and less. Or, more accurately, I couldn't think much at all. A few days after the night we were captured, I was given a strange drug as an experiment for professor Hazama's research. It was a terrible medicine that turned humans into monsters. As a result, my body was completely transformed into that horrible monster, and my mind was also at the mercy of my animal instincts with little of free will left.

...GURURURURURU...

There was food for me in the cell. I spent every day by devouring the prey over and over again.

From outside the cell, I could hear professor Hazama and Reiko talking. But I didn't catch the voices as conversation, only a mere noise, not recognized by my consciousness.

[Professor]
"So... How's the test subject...?"

[Reiko]
"I guess it was a failure... It appears to have little to no human consciousness."

[Professor]
"Does this substance only change human into a monster in appearance and power... That's unfortunate."

[Reiko]
"You've already made the next prototype, haven't you?... We've exhausted most of the data from that one, so why don't we try a new test specimen?"

[Professor]
"Right... We'll have to get a new man again."

[Reiko]
"That's a good idea... So, what do you want to do with him?"

[Professor]
"Regrettably, we cannot leave it as it is... It will be troublesome if it gets out on a rampage. Please, dispose of it."

[Reiko]
"I understand... Well, then..."

The sound of their footsteps echoed coldly in the corridor. But I didn't think anything of it, I just stretched my tentacles and gorged on the prey set on the table.

[Voice]
"Nnnn... Aaahhhh"

The live prey raised its voice in anguish. But that voice was the best part of my meal.

... GURURURURURURURU...

I let out a contented moan and continued to devour more of it. Eventually... Not knowing that I'll be disposed of by the professor and his assistant who changed me into this...

Strap Yourselves In
PART 12: AT THE BOUND OF THIS WORLD

CHOICE

右の洞窟へ逃げ込む - Run to the right passage
真ん中の洞窟へ逃げ込む - Run to the middle passage

(now let's go to the middle passage instead. i'm going to do this one in a linear fashion since there are only two major branches left)

CHOICE 2 - Middle passage

140-cave.png


(there is no new music in this update, so i'll just use Yu-No remastered instead, the cave section reminds me of that game underground section very much)

[Kosaku]
"Let's run into the middle passage... Everyone follow me."​

I got the girls to their feet so they could follow me, and we ran into the passage in the middle. We quickly made our way through the cave, being chased by the sounds of the monster. Twisting and turning right and left, the cave went on forever...

It seemed to be getting narrower and more cramped. Eventually, there was only enough room for one person to pass through, and we squeezed forward between the walls. Further on, the cave suddenly widened, and once again we were able to get out into a hall-like area. I was out of breath and crouched down on the spot.

[Kosaku]
"*pants heavily*... This place here, the monster won't be able to come after us."​

The monster was much larger than us... I didn't think it was going to be able to chase us through the confines of the cave. Everyone else was also crouched in place, breathing hard.

[Kosaku]
"Shiori-san... Please continue with what you've told us earlier."​

I remembered her talking about the way we could be saved and asked Shiori-san about it again.

142-cave-shiori-calm.png

[Shiori]
"Okay... I understand..."

Shiori-san began to speak slowly.

(then she proceeds to tell the same story about the gods and monsters and Linna wants her necklace back. we'll skip it for brevity. last time in a different branch Kosaku gave the necklace back automatically because there was no way out of the bad ending. now, however, we get a choice of giving it back.)

Linna was looking straight at me and reaching out with her hand. I remembered that necklace I took from her the first time I ran into her.

CHOICE
ネックレスを返す - Return the necklace
返さない - Do not return

(let's keep it for now for the sake of, erm, walkthrough completion)

CHOICE 2 - Do not return

The necklace was in my pocket, but I was somewhat hesitant to give it back to Linna now.

[Kosaku]
"I'll give it back to her at the shrine... Tell her that."​

When Shiori-san told her so, Linna fiercely pressed on to me.

153-cave-linna.png

[Linna]
"Vata!?... Gabala, teresia!!"

[Kosaku]
"H-hey, now... You're can't use it now, can you?"​

[Kosaku]
"We don't know what'll happen before we get to the temple... I'm just saying I'll keep it until then."​

[Linna]
"Nino!... Ni, vatera, gabala, noah!"

Her momentum pushed me back and I explained to her why I'm not giving the necklace back, but Linna didn't seem to be convinced. She grabbed me by the shirt, and we were about to get into a fight...

...ZURUZURUZURU...

We could hear that horrible slurping approaching us again from the depths of the cave.

[Kosaku]
"...?!"​

141-cave-monica.png

[Monica]
"Hey, you two! ... It's not the time to be fighting!"

Monica's face tightened as she stepped between us. The sound of the monster coming from somewhere only grew louder.

[Ayano]
"I-it's getting closer... What do we do?"

[Kosaku]
"... L-let's run. This way... Hurry!"​

When we were trying to get back into the narrow gap...

[Linna]
"...Eeeeeek?!"

[Kosaku]
"?!... L-linna!!"​

A tentacle shot out of darkness and grabbed Linna, pulling her into the depths of the cave.

[Kosaku]
"Sh-shit... Wait!"​

[Linna]
"...Nooooo...!"
(suddenly Linna screams in japanese)

As I walked deeper into the cave, guided by the screams, I found Linna's form squeezed by a group of tentacles.
(spoiler: all the three girls get it in the cave of slurping monsters in different branches. except Shiori, of course)

152-cave-linna-hentai.png



[Linna]
"Vamo... Vamona..."

As Linna struggled to escape from the disgusting touches, the tentacles were releasing cloudy mucus from their tips.

[Linna]
"Nnn... Aaah... Vamona..."

Tentacles tightened on Linna's soft breasts, toying with her privates and moved around as if caressing her whole body. She let out a sigh of pleasure as she was aroused by the tentacles squirming around the base of her inner thigh.

[Linna]
"Ha... Aaah!"

Her struggling body gradually weakened, and her tightly closed legs opened up.

...JURUJURUJURU...

The tentacles that were crawling around split her pink flesh and penetrated her vagina.

[Linna]
"Aghh... Oooh!"

The wet fleshy sound like stirring meat in a pot echoed, followed by Linna's sweet moans.

[Linna]
"Haaa... Aaah, parano..."

[Kosaku]
"L-linna! ... I'll save you!!"​

I picked up a nearby rock and searched for the monster's core. Following the writhing tentacles, I saw them coming from a small gap in the rock wall on the left side of the cave.

[Kosaku]
"Dammit... Its main body is behind the wall?!"​

I gritted my teeth involuntarily. No matter how much damage I would do to the tentacles, I would not be able to defeat the monster unless I damaged the body.

[Kosaku]
"There's no other way... This is how it's going to be..."​

I looked around, searching for a waist-high rock that I could move. If I closed the gaps in the wall, the monster would not be able to do anything.
(again that phrase, 手も足もでない - no hands, no feet)

[Linna]
"Ahhhh... Haaahaaaa..."

Meanwhile, Linna was being violated more and more by the monster. Her skin was covered in the monster liquid and glowed enticingly in the dim light.

[Kosaku]
"There!... Th-this one..."​

I lifted the rock with all my might and pushed it into a crack in the wall.

...Zuzun!

With a splat, the tentacles coming out from the crevice were crushed.

...GUAAAAAA...

A sound like the monster screaming could be heard faintly from the other side of the wall, and the tentacles that were entangled around Linna's body trembled, twitched, and then went limp.

[Kosaku]
"Linna!... Linna, are you all right?!"​

I ran over to where she was lying and picked her up. Her body was covered in warm mucus and was slimy.

[Linna]
"... Koh-sah-kuh..."

With her eyes moist Linna muttered to herself. She still didn't seem to recover from the shock of the monster's attack.

[Kosaku]
"Thank God you're safe... Linna."​

I sighed in relief as I hugged her shoulder.

[Monica]
"... Linna, Tosaku!"

[Ayano]
"Are you guys... Okay?!"

Ayano and others, who finally got to us, asked us with worried faces.

[Kosaku]
"Yeah, as you see... We're safe somehow."​

When I grinned, they all smiled, relieved.

[Kosaku]
"Now we can be sure the monster won't attack again... Let's get to the shrine now."​

I told Shiori-san to ask Linna to take us to the shrine.

[Linna]
"Ya... Comu, ella..."

Linna nodded and calmly walked towards the back of the cave with her attitude completely changed from before.

[Kosaku]
"All right... Let's go. Be very careful, guys. And I want you all to have a rock ready. The sharper, the better."​

Even if it was only for show, it would still be better if each of us had a weapon to protect ourselves. We glanced around and followed Linna.

The dimly lit cave went on endlessly. Linna seemed to know the way through, and even when we encountered a branch on the way, she proceeded without hesitation. I didn't know how far we went into the cave, but the path seemed to go down deeper and deeper below the ground.

[Linna]
"..."

[Kosaku]
"?... What's the matter?"​

After going through the cave for a while, Linna suddenly stopped and looked ahead as if she was thinking. The cave split into two at the end. I asked Shiori-san why Linna was standing still.

143-cave-linna-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"Linna-san... She forgot which way to go on this fork."

[Kosaku]
"... She forgot?"​

[Shiori]
"Yes... She seems pretty certain that one of them leads to the shrine."

[Linna]
"..."

Linna had a pensive look on her face, still puzzled as she looked at the cave ahead. She couldn't quite decide which one was the right choice. We watched her in silence for a while, but soon I got tired of waiting, so I made a suggestion to everyone.

[Kosaku]
"If we get attacked by a monster while thinking, we won't be able to protect ourselves here... If we move on, you'll remember the path, Linna... Let's just go ahead."​

[Ayano]
"That's fine, but... Which way do you want us to go?"

[Kosaku]
"... Yeah..."​

CHOICE
右の道に進む - Go right
左の道に進む - Go left

(i'll mention where the right passage leads later on)

CHOICE 2 - Go left

[Kosaku]
"... Let's go to the left passage."​

My sixth sense told me the right passage was dangerous. I've decided that we should go left.

[Ayano]
"To the left passage. All right, let's go."

We entered the passage on the left and started walking again with Linna in the lead. The dimly lit cave went on and on, twisting and turning and changing directions.

We were moving through the cave, disoriented and unsure of where the hell we were. With an occasional tilt of the head, Linna silently continued on through the cave.

[Kosaku]
Are you sure... This is the way?​

A mixture of impatience and anxiety passed through my mind. I guess we all felt the same way. There was a tense air flowing between us.

...*tap-tap-tap*...

(and these footsteps, as we know, are from the professor and Reiko. the rest is the same ol' end 9)

(now let's return to the necklace choice and do the other one)

CHOICE
ネックレスを返す - Return the necklace
返さない - Do not return

CHOICE 1 - Return the necklace

I took the necklace out of my pocket and handed it to Linna.

[Linna]
"Kadrena... Kohsakuh."

I had no idea what she was saying. Linna smiled broadly and slipped the necklace around her neck.

[Kosaku]
"Alright, let's go to the shrine... Linna, lead the way."​

With Linna at the helm, we started walking again. The dimly lit cave went on endlessly.

Linna seemed to know the way through, and even when we encountered a branch on the way, she proceeded without hesitation. As I followed Linna, I was counting the branches just in case, but I gave up because there were so many on the way. I didn't know how far we went into the cave, but the path seemed to go down deeper and deeper below the ground.

154-cave-linna-necklace-shiori.png

[Linna]
"Locca... Kulo, donna, lucca!!"

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-what did she say?"​

[Shiori]
"We're going down the cliff... She says it's easy to fall, so be careful."

The steep precipice spread out beneath our feet. We followed Linna down as fast as we could.

[Kosaku]
"...Wh-what is this?"​

155-cave-passage.png

We climbed down the cliff and looked around, and the scenery was completely different. The caves we had walked through up to that point were all natural, but the place we were standing in now was an artificial corridor made of tightly hewn stone.

[Ayano]
"A-amazing... I wonder who built such a fine corridor in the depths of the Earth?"

[Monica]
"Gureito... It must've been a pain just to bring in the materials."

While we were surprised, Linna was swiftly moving along the corridor. Even more confused, we hurried to chase her... And then...

[Ayano]
"... EEEEEEEEK!!"

[Kosaku]
"What?... A-ayano-san!?"​

When I turned around at the shout, a black shadow suddenly descended from the top of the cliff and was about to swoop down on Ayano.



[Ayano]
"... N-noooo!!"

...JURURURURURURU...

The monster shot its tentacles weaving around Ayano's body. A slimy muted sound echoed through the cave.

[Monica]
"A-ayano?!... Careful, Ayano is..."

[Shiori]
"Ayano-san!?... What's going on here!?"

[Kosaku]
"Get back, both of you. You need to get out of the tentacles reach!"​

I picked up a handy rock that had fallen on the cobblestones and headed for the monster.

[Kosaku]
"You m-monster!!... A-ayano-san, I'll save you!"​

[Ayano]
"Ahhh... Haa haa... S-stooop..."

156-cave-ayano-hentai.png

The monster had its tentacles around Ayano's hands and feet preventing her movement and crawling all over her body.

[Ayano]
"Haaa... Aaah, stooop..."

The liquid spewed out from the tips of the tentacles and moistened Ayano's body, and then they went for her genitalia.

[Ayano]
"Aaah... Kuuu!"

[Kosaku]
"Beast... Let go of her!!"​

...SHAAAAAAAAAA!!

The monster's tentacles were reaching out to me as I tried to save Ayano-san. Its body was right below the cliff... I tried to get to it, but I couldn't move an inch because of the attacking tentacles.

[Kosaku]
"Damn... At this rate, Ayano-san will..."​

[Ayano]
"Ahhh... Nooo!"

The tentacle lifted Ayano's body and forced her into a pose like she was crawling on all fours. The tentacles slithered along her inner thigh.

[Kosaku]
"All right... It's all or nothing."​
(いちかばちか - ichi ka ba chika - all or nothing, make or break)

I tightened my grip on the rock and backed out of the tentacle range. I looked through the darkness once more to see where the monster's body was.

[Kosaku]
"Please... I hope it breaks."​

Screaming at the rock in my hand, I hurled it as hard as I could at the cliff.

...*thump*...

The sound of rock clashing against rock echoed in the cave... But that was it.

[Kosaku]
"D-didn't work?..."​

I was just about to pick up the rock under my feet one more time and head towards the monster.

...GOROGOROGOROGASHAN!!

With a roaring rumble, the cliff collapsed all at once, crushing the monster flat.

[Kosaku]
"... Ayano-san!!"​

I ran to Ayano-san amid the dust cloud.

[Ayano]
"... K-kosaku-kuuun!!"

Ayano-san threw herself at my chest crying and I held her tightly.

[Kosaku]
"Are you alright?!... You're not hurt anywhere?"​

Ayano nodded her head.

157-corridor-monica.png

[Monica]
"You did it, Tosaku. You didn't plan to collapse it, right?"

[Kosaku]
"Oh, cut it out... It just happened to work out, so it's a good thing."​

[Shiori]
"Ayano-san... Thank God you're safe."

[Ayano]
"Thank you... But I was so scared..."

The smoke finally cleared, and we were happy to see each other safe and sound. But I realized that Linna was gone.

[Kosaku]
"... What happened to Linna?"​

[Monica]
"Th-that's right... Where is she?

We looked around quickly... But Linna was not here, not even a sign of her.

158-corridor-shiori.png

[Shiori]
"I wonder if she went deeper into the cave?"

[Kosaku]
"No way... Basically, we don't know which way to go without her."​

With the cliff collapsing and making so much noise... If she went ahead, she would have noticed we're not with her.

[Monica]
"It's no use thinking about it too much... What do we do, Tosaku?"

CHOICE
リィナの後を追う洞 - Chase after Linna
窟の入り口に戻る - Go back to the entrance

(slightly different wording from before, if you're wondering. last time it was リィナを追いかける and 洞窟の入り口に戻る)

(option two leads to same End 9 with a different start)

CHOICE 2 - Go back to the entrance

I looked into the depths of the cave as if I could see through the darkness.

[Kosaku]
I wonder... If there's another monster like that crawling around down the road? If so, it's too dangerous to go on without Linna's guidance...​

[Kosaku]
"Well... Let's get back to the cave entrance."​

I said that and turned back towards the entrance to the cave. Frightened by the shadows in the darkened cave, we went back toward the entrance.

[Kosaku]
...​

Back near the entrance, we could not escape the monster being in the cave. But it was unsettling to stay still in the dark, and I felt better than deep in a cave.

...*tap* *tap* *tap*...

(proceed with the End 9 dialogue)

CHOICE 1 - Chase after Linna



I looked into the depths of the cave as if I could see through the darkness.

[Kosaku]
"Let's hurry up and go after Linna. Right now there's no doubt that she went ahead."​

[Monica]
"OK... Let's do this."

[Kosaku]
"And I want you all to have a rock ready. The sharper, the better."​

Even if it was only for show, it would still be better if each of us had a weapon to protect ourselves.

[Kosaku]
"All right... Let's go."​

We chased after Linna through the cobbled passage, moving quickly. Although the cave curved several times on the way, there were no branches, it was a slight downwards slope on and on.

[Kosaku]
"*pants hard*... We haven't caught up yet?... That Linna girl, where the hell did she go?"​

[Ayano]
"Hey, Kosaku-kun... Maybe we're already in the shrine..."

[Kosaku]
"Yeah... From the looks of it, we certainly are."​

[Monica]
"There were no branches on the way... So let's just get on with it."

[Kosaku]
"... Right."​

As we went down the passage, we were panting even more. Eventually, there was a turn at the end again, and we turned right.

[Kosaku]
"The light... I can see the light!"​

The passage ahead turned right again. The light on the other side of the turn was vaguely bright.

[Kosaku]
"...?!"​

I half-ran after the girls, and just before the turn, I gained on them. I saw the shadow of a person projected on the cobblestones at the corner.

[Kosaku]
(Linna?!... No, apparently not.)

There were two shadows. They both seemed to wield spears, standing upright and motionless.

(this choice is also where we'll arrive if we do not return the necklace to Linna and pick the right passage after that, with some differences later on)

CHOICE

そっと様子をうかがう - Wait and see
おとりを使ってみる - Try to use a decoy

CHOICE 1
[Kosaku]
"I'll see how it goes... Stand back, everyone."​

I motioned the girls to step back and peeked out of the corner.

CHOICE 2
[Kosaku]
"Let's see how it goes. Monica, help me... Everyone else, back off."​

I gave Monica the rock Shiori-san was holding and instructed her to throw it over the corner.

[Kosaku]
"When one comes out, you jump on him all at once... Okay?"​

[Monica]
"OK... Let's do it."

Monica agreed with the plan and threw the rock across the corner.

...*thud*!

The rock was rolling on the cobblestones, making a loud noise... However, the two shadows remained immobile keeping their position.

[Kosaku]
"...?"​

I made sure their shadows weren't moving at all, and then I poked my head out of the corner.

(well, that was quick once again. merge here)

[Kosaku]
"...W-whaaaaa!?"​

[Monica]
"Wh-what's going on, Tosaku?!"

[Ayano]
"K-kosaku-kun?!"

[Shiori]
"... Kosaku-san?!"

When I looked around the corner, I froze unconsciously. The girls rushed to me in a hurry.

[Monica]
"... Hi?!"

[Shiori]
"What's wrong?... What's in there?!"

[Ayano]
"... N-nooo way?!"

[Kosaku]
"A-are these... Mummies?"​

Behind the corner, there were the two mummies of stoutly built men standing upright. The mummies stood defending the corridor with their heavy-looking spears ready. I looked beyond them and raised my voice even more.

159-linna-computer.png

[Kosaku]
"Over there... Linna?!"​

After the entrance guarded by two mummies, there was a large hall. The interior of the hall was lit very brightly. In the back of the circular hall surrounded by smooth stone walls, the floor was raised, and in the center of the wall, a huge column covered with an intricate pattern stood out.

[Kosaku]
"Is this... The shrine Linna was talking about?"​

In front of the column, there was something like a table for offerings. Kneeling in front of it, Linna was muttering a prayer.

[Kosaku]
"Linna... Seems to be in the middle of a ritual."​

We just stood there and watched. Her low, growling murmur echoed through the deathly quiet hall.

...

[Kosaku]
"So long... Not done yet?"​

Linna was still on her knees, praying. I got tired of waiting and murmured to nobody specific.

[Monica]
"Shhh... It's better not to talk."

Monica put a finger on her mouth and looked at me. With a strange look, she continued to stare at Linna. Both Shiori-san and Ayano-san kept their eyes on Linna, too, watching closely to see how things would turn out. I glanced back helplessly.

[Kosaku]
(If we get attacked by a monster here, we'll have no room for error...)

So far, there was no sign of the monster approaching. But it could attack us at any moment. I wished Linna would finish the ritual sooner.

[Kosaku]
...​

She kept on praying. I turned my attention back to the mummies standing guard over the entrance to the hall.

[Kosaku]
(You know... Maybe I should take one of their spears, just in case?)

CHOICE

槍を取って - Take the spear
おく取らない - Don't do it

CHOICE 1 - Take the spear

I gently reached for the heavy-looking spear the mummified warrior was holding and snatched it from his hand. It was a heavy spear about my height, metal all the way to the hilt. It would come in handy if I needed it. Grabbing that massive spear, I turned my gaze back to Linna on the altar.

Eventually, she finished the prayer and looked up quietly. She took off the necklace from around her neck, untied it, and placed the jewels in the palm of her hand. Right after that she half-rose to her feet and inserted the jewels one by one into the platform in front of her.

[Kosaku]
...​

After arranging all the jewels I saw how she stroke her shoulders in relief. Apparently, the ritual was completed successfully. And when it did...

...*rumbling*...

[Kosaku]
"... Wh-what?!"​

...*rumbling*...

A rumbling from the bottom of the earth filled the area, and the whole cave suddenly began to shake violently. Soon the walls of the hall began to crack and the altar began to crumble.

[Kosaku]
"L-linna!... We need to get out of here!!"​

[Linna]
"...?!"

She looked around in a daze, seemingly unsure of what was happening, stuck in one spot.

[Kosaku]
"... Shit!"​

I had no choice but to run out to the center of the hall and take Linna by the arm. A large rock fell hard from the ceiling beside me.

[Ayano]
"... Kosaku-kun?!"

I shouted as I ran towards the entrance, avoiding the rocks.

[Kosaku]
"Run, guys!... We need to get the hell out of here!!"​

...*heavy rumbling*!!

The hall came down with a thundering crash as I ran for the entrance. Shards of rock hit my back.

[Kosaku]
"Ow-ow... what the hell is happening?! This is... Don't tell me that this is the result of your ritual?!"​

I yelled at Linna, who looked up at me with a startled look on her face.

160-corridor-linna.png

[Linna]
"Vata, dena... Mi, dano..."

It was no use shouting on her. The cave was still shaking. Now was the time to get out.

[Kosaku]
"Anyway, let's go someplace closer to the outside... Let's go!"​

I urged Linna to go back the way we'd come.

[Shiori]
"...S-stoop!..."

[Kosaku]
"?!... S-shiori-san's voice!?"​

We turned back in the trembling cave with the earth rumbling ominously around us.

161-corridor-reiko-professor.png

[Professor]
"... At last, the knight appears."
(naito)



[Kosaku]
"... Professor Hazama, Reiko!!"​

[Professor]
"I wonder if this earthquake is your work... What the hell did you bastards do?"

When I rushed over to the others, Professor Hazama and Reiko were there standing in front of us. The professor was holding Shiori-san by the arm.

[Professor]
"Good grief... I did not take you seriously at all... You do one nonsense thing after another."

[Kosaku]
"... Let go of Shiori-san!"​

[Professor]
"I refuse... Shiori is my wife. I am the only one who can protect her and set her free. Like hell I will give Shiori to some youngster."

[Shiori]
"Kosaku-san! ... Don't worry about me, just get out of here!! This cave is going to collapse soon!"

[Kosaku]
"S-shiori-san!?... No, but..."​

[Professor]
"... It doesn't matter... If this cave is going to collapse, so be it... But for interfering with my research you will pay with your lives."

[Reiko]
"It's dangerous here, Professor... Take Shiori-san and get out of the cave please."

[Professor]
"Hmm... I leave the rest to you, Reiko."

[Shiori]
"... K-kosaku-san!"

Professor Hazama hugged the struggling Shiori-san and turned around...

Shiori-san's voice echoed through the cave.

[Kosaku]
"Sh-shiori-san... W-wait!!"​

162-corridor-reiko.png

When I tried to go after the professor, Reiko blocked my way.

[Kosaku]
"Out of my way... Step aside!!"​

[Reiko]
"That's not going to happen... I've been told you all are supposed to die here."

Reiko smiled a freezing cold smile.

[Kosaku]
"Back off... Or you'll get hurt!"​

I shouted as I held my spear at my waist. I couldn't afford to be dealing with Reiko now.

[Reiko]
"Heh, that's the way it is... Go ahead and do it if you can."

Reiko didn't seem to be at all fazed by the spear point. I made up my mind and thrust myself at Reiko.

‥‥‥ビュッ!!
...byuh!!

The tip of the spear grazed Reiko's body, but Reiko dodged and dove at my chest.

[Kosaku]
"Ow!!"​

Reiko's knifehand drove into my hand holding the spear. I felt a numbing pain and the spear dropped out of it.

[Kosaku]
"... D-darn it!!"​

Reiko quickly grabbed my arm and twisted it behind my back. Her thin, supple arm wrapped around my neck and squeezed it tightly.

[Kosaku]
"Guuu... Uuuu."​

[Ayano]
"K-kosaku-kun!?"

[Monica]
"Tosaku?!... Take that!!"

Monica picked up a stone from the floor and hurled it at Reiko.

...*thud*!

The stone hit Reiko in the back, and her arms loosened for a moment as she screamed. I got free without missing a beat.

[Reiko]
"Kuh... Don't you dare!"

[Kosaku]
"Stop it... Stop it, Reiko!! If this place collapses, we're all going to die!"​

[Reiko]
"As if it's such a big deal... Fine, if this happens, you'll all die together nicely."

Reiko was not listening to me at all. She chuckled fearlessly, and then suddenly crouched as soon as she got away from us.

[Kosaku]
"?!... What are you doing?"​

Reiko's body was suddenly swelling up, reshaping... Before our very eyes, Reiko had transformed into a horrible monster.

163-reiko-monster.png

[Reiko]
"...SHAAAAAAAA!!"

[Ayano]
"EEEEEEEEK?!"

[Kosaku]
"Wh-what the... Hell!!"​

[Monica]
"Inkuretiburu... What on earth is going on here?!"

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh, heh... Surprised, are you? Professor Hazama... Has been studying these monsters to correct the defects in humans. That research can also be used to create a being with more power than human... We encouraged him to conduct research for military purposes instead of asking for help. And the first biological weapon created by applying this research... Is me. Heh, heh, heh."

[Kosaku]
"M-monster... What the hell are you...?"​

[Reiko]
"Heh, heh... Let's just say I'm a member of the intelligence agency reporting directly to the government. I'm so grateful to professor Hazama for giving me this body... After all, it doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman if you can change your body at will."

[Reiko]
"And when it comes to fighting..."

Disgusting tentacles extended from Reiko's monster form.

[Kosaku]
"...Argh!"​

...SHURURURURURURU...!!

Suddenly a tentacle grabbed me underfoot and slammed me hard against the wall of the cave.

...*bash*!!

[Kosaku]
"...*cough*..."​

[Reiko]
"... It's amazing how far this power surpasses that of an ordinary human."

My whole body was hit so hard, I couldn't breathe for a second. Just like that, I fell down to the floor, crumpled and limp.

[Reiko]
"Well, now that the man in my way is done for... How shall I deal with the ladies?"

[Ayano]
"... Hii?!"

[Monica]
"...N-noo..."

Reiko slowly approached Ayano and the others, her tentacles twisting and swirling around her.

[Kosaku]
"Sssstop... Leave them alone!!"​

I picked up the spear from the floor and thrust it into Reiko's back with all my might.

[Kosaku]
"You... Monster!!"​

...Zaku!!

[Reiko]
"GUUUAAA?! ... F-fucker!!"

The spear plunged into Reiko's back and stuck out of her belly with blood splashing.

[Reiko]
"Gu... Gufu..."
(i won't even try to pick a proper onomatopoeia)

With blood flowing from her mouth, Reiko went completely mad with rage. I barely managed to avoid being knocked off my feet and twisted the spear in the wound.

[Reiko]
"GU...GUOOOOO!!"

The tentacles that extended from Reiko's arms writhed in agony and hit the walls of the cave.

...*rumbling*...

The rumbling became more intense, and huge chunks of rock dropped from the ceiling, landing all around us.

[Monica]
"... Tosaku?!"

[Ayano]
"Run away... Kosaku-kun!"

Reiko's body lost strength, and she fell down on her knees. I got up and ran to where everyone else was.

[Kosaku]
"If we stay like this, we'll be buried alive... Come on, let's get the hell out of here."​

We were about to run, dodging the relentless barrage of falling rocks.

[Reiko]
"I won't... Let you get away..."

...SHURURURURURU...!!

Reiko's tentacles grabbed my legs.

[Kosaku]
"Aaaaaa!!"​

[Monica]
"...T-tosaku!!"

[Ayano]
"... Kosaku-kun?!"

I fell down on the spot and was dragged towards Reiko.

[Reiko]
"Hehehehehe... At least I'll take you with me."

Reiko had a vicious smile on her bloodied face. I struggled to escape from the tentacles, but she held on tight to my leg and wouldn't let go.

...*rumbling*...

The rocks fell more intensely, and a thick cloud of dust enveloped us.

...gakon!!

Something heavy hit me in the back of my head and I felt my consciousness fading away.

[Ayano]
"... K-kosaku-kuuun!!"

I heard Ayano shouting my name in panic... I think. But her voice was drowned out by the roar of the crumbling cave, and I couldn't hear it.

[Kosaku]
...​

I couldn't see anything, I couldn't hear anything. I had no way of knowing what happened to Ayano-san and the other girls after that. My body was buried so deep in the ground it would never be found. Yeah... Maybe for all eternity...

(we'll leave the second choice for the next update as that will lead us, oh dear, to our very first good ending!)
