Reborn as an Evolving Space Monster: Harem Of Otherworldly Beauties - Chapter 61

Chapter 61: Reclaiming Camp And…
‘What’s that about?’

The truth is, there was more than one reason why Roka didn’t want him on the ship with them.

There was more than just distrust and caution.

“So…” Bak pointed behind him. “Can you help unload the rest?”

‘Those that I just put inside? Ugh… She’s still not looking at me! So she’ll let me go inside when it’s to load and unload machines, but I gotta cross by foot otherwise??’

The Paru let out a sigh as he started walking towards the spaceship.

After a couple of steps, he turned around and gestured to the female Granilith.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Roka’s tone had a tinge of hostility.

The Paru and the female Granilith stopped, just as they were about to enter the spaceship.

“Isn’t it fine…?” Raya’s gaze moved from them to Roka repeatedly.

“It’s not. Even if we let -Him- in, why would we let that inside?”

“You’re just mad because she gave you a hug, aren’t you?” Jay sneered. “A hug from another female doesn’t make you gay, Commander.”

The remark didn’t fail to make Raya laugh out loud.

“There’s no way!! Roka got hugged by a female alien!! Bahahhaa!!”

Kris and Liz held their hands to their mouths, doing their best not to chuckle.

“Just… Get it done.” Roka said, remaining stoic.

The Paru took that as a small win.

‘Letting us come in and out is already good. Just gotta get them used to us more.’

…

With the machinery that had been left recovered, acquiring fuel became three times faster.

‘They only had a quarter of them left. This probably won’t take too long…’ The Paru thought to himself as he walked around the area. ‘I’m getting bored though. Apart from Wizzos and Graniliths, everything else that I saw was too small. I would need to catch and eat many of them to obtain a Skill. Plus… None of them seemed to have an interesting ability.’

The Paru kept walking around aimlessly, and the Worka took it as him patrolling the area.

The female Granilith was seated on a random large rock.

“Hey, isn’t this… Kind of weird?” Liz whispered.

“What is?”

“Them being… Uh… Naked.”

“Umm…” Kris was at a loss for words. “I… Don’t think it’s-”

“They’re fucking aliens.” Jay stared at Liz as if she were the weirdest person in the world. “Are you uncomfortable with aliens being naked? With pets being naked? What’s wrong with you?”

“Huh? No, I was just-”

“You’re a weirdo.” Jay waved dismissively. “I can’t wait for this mission to end so I never have to see you again.” He said as he walked away.

“Don’t mind him.” Raya took a seat next to Liz. “He gets off on being a dickhead.”

“Right…” Liz scratched her cheek. “So you think it’s weird too?”

“Huh?” Raya suddenly looked away. She didn’t want them to notice her blushing. “No. Why would you think that?”

“I don’t know… I mean, we could give them clothes or something?”

“Are you uncomfortable with seeing a naked alien? That’s like seeing a dog. What’s wrong with you?”

“No one asked you, Jay!”

“Yes. Fuck off, Jay.”

“Tsk. Weirdos…” He muttered before walking further away.

***

Liz couldn’t stand around doing nothing.

She was a Soldier, so she felt it was her duty to patrol around the area.

With a shotgun in hand, a rifle on her back, and a gun in the holster belt around her waist, Liz patrolled without getting too close to the forest.

‘Seems calm. I guess that… Paru, they called him? Really took care of everything around. I’m glad we found him. Although…’

She took a couple of deep breaths to clear her mind.

Being reminded of the loss of the Tsero Crystal, the object of their mission, was incredibly stressful and anxiety-inducing.

‘We’ll figure it out. Definitely.’ She nodded to herself as she walked.

The next second, her eyebrows rose, and she focused on the hearing.

‘There’s something…’ She held the shotgun in her hands tighter. ‘It’s coming from within the forest. Should be about four dozen steps away. Should I check it out… Or leave it?’

Liz debated for a bit, before taking a deep breath in and bracing herself.

‘I’ll go take a look while moving stealthily. If I find something, I’ll alert the others. I do hope it’s just my imagination.’

Liz walked cautiously. Each of her steps was light and swift, making nearly no noise even though she was walking on crip grass.

‘I probably won’t be noticed. But if I am, I’ll shoot right away. If it’s Wizzo, it’ll be wounded. If it’s a Granilith, then my shot will, at least, warn the others.’

She hid behind each tree standing in her way.

‘I’ve already fought Graniliths. Back then, I couldn’t damage them since I didn’t have the big guns with me. Still, I was able to evade and escape rather easily. I won’t lose in a contest of speed or endurance. If they manage to grab me though, that’ll be trouble…’

Liz took a couple more steps, walking deeper into the forest, before suddenly jumping to the side, hiding behind a thick tree’s trunk.

‘It’s getting louder. I can hear those grunts clearly now. It’s a Granilith. Should I go back to warn them?’

The Soldier debated internally for a bit.

‘Judging from the sound, it’s less than two dozen steps away. Within view. I should take a look, in the case that there are multiple-‘

Just as Liz’s head started moving to peek from behind the tree,

“MMMMMHAAAA!!”

‘What is…??’

A long and muffled moan echoed.

And as Liz peeked, what she found made her eyes widen and her bodily temperature increase suddenly.

Rea said earlier: “With that strong body of yours, you could have all the males for you. They would definitely be at your beck and call If you stopped being such a little bitch.”

Indeed, Liz could have all the Worka males she wanted. But, the truth is, she didn’t desire any of them.
