What Do You Mean There Are Other Transmigrators In My Harem Fantasy?

Thankfully, it doesn’t seem like there was an aphrodisiac gas or something that made Odeta like that so I guess maybe she got horny after beating that boss earlier.

Speaking of which… This floor was basically a mix of a labyrinth and a gym where there are corridors that have monsters walking through them and a large room directly in front of the entrance where the gym was located.

The facilities here also seemed to be much better than the one above as well where it looks cleaner and more well maintained, though it could also be because of the fact that there were fewer Amraps here using the facilities as compared to above.

There didn’t seem to be a barbell for someone to lift here but instead, there was a machine with a padded block which looked very similar to a certain punching machine that I’ve seen before in a certain series back in my old World.

Well… I kind of figured out the rules of this floor just from the sight of that.

I pointed at the punch machine, “Let me guess… I have to punch that thing and if my punch is strong enough, the door to the next floor will open?”

Odeta thrust out her chest, “That’s right!”

“And I’m going to assume that the longer you train inside this gym… The lower the threshold it is for you to pass the test?”

Odeta’s only response was to smile at me.

I took that as a yes so I went over to the punching machine and looked back at the girls who were watching me.

I don’t know why but it seems like all of them had somehow agreed that I would be the one trying to help our party qualify for the next floor while the three of them would deal with the monsters to ’show off’.

I made the motion of rolling up my sleeves before I stepped up in front of the punching machine.

Already, I could feel the gazes coming from the Amraps around the gym, clearly waiting to see what would happen.

I lowered myself before pulling back my fist, taking a moment to consider just how hard I wanted to punch it.

Ok… From the floor earlier, I know that it’s most likely beyond my base stats so I will most likely need to buff myself in order to reach the threshold.

Since I’ve spent literally zero time here, I’m expecting the threshold to be pretty high…

Oh well… Better to just go all out and overachieve than end up not buffing enough and failing I suppose?

I called upon my Shadow Guards within me to start layering their buffs on me.

Just as I was preparing to activate the buffs, Odeta cleared her throat, prompting me to pause and turn back towards her.

My Amrap raised a finger, “Wahahaha! Actually, the truth is that the harder you punch, the harder the boss you’ll have to fight on the next floor, Sister Aster!”

Oh damn… Odeta! You almost made me punch it with my full strength!!

I was just about to berate her before she gestured at the machine, “That’s why go ahead and use your full strength, Sister Aster!!”

Huh? Wait what? Why?!!

Wait… What am I even asking for? It’s obvious why she wanted me to punch it with my full strength because she wants to fight the monster that would spawn because of this…

I let out a sigh, “Are you sure we can beat the monster that would spawn if I were to use my full strength, Odeta?”

“Wahahaha! It’s just a C ranked Dungeon, Sister Aster! I’m sure we can beat it!”

Well… Fine… I guess this was also one of the reasons why she brought us here…

And I guess facing a strong opponent would also help build some level of trust between Ira and Tsara as well… Which was what I had planned to do earlier but failed because the monsters we faced were all too weak.

I lowered myself back into my stance and started buffing myself with my Shadow Guards once again.

I felt the familiar strain on my body as the buffs started to increase my stats exponentially and I had a moment to hope that I wouldn’t accidentally destroy this entire room before I punched my fist forward.

My fist made contact with the machine with a resounding boom, shaking the entire room from the shockwave.

The machine itself did not even move an inch aside from the punching mat shifting back a little from the recoil of being hit.

There wasn’t a scale or even an indicator to show whether that amount of strength was enough or not so I only knew I passed when the door slid open behind the machine.

I then heard murmurs of surprise coming from the Amraps around us.

“She… Hit it that hard?”

“Who is she?”

“You don’t know? That’s Invincible Aster… The one that supposedly trained Sister Odeta.”

“Ohhh… Now that makes sense… I thought Sister Odeta had been exaggerating her feats all this while but if she’s even willing to use that much strength here, she must be serious.”

I was already expecting them to react to what I did so I wasn’t surprised by their whispering…

Odeta didn’t wait and wrapped her arm around me to start moving me towards the open door, descending deeper into the Dungeon.

There was no celebration this time like what she did earlier. Instead, she looked entirely focused like she was ready to fight a formidable enemy.

Guess she’s already prepared for a tough fight.

We reached the next floor and sure enough, I could already feel an immense pressure coming from the boss room even though we had not entered it yet.

Looking inside, I found another one of those muscled figures with the shape of an Amrap waiting there, this one also unarmed and with bulging muscles while also being completely naked.

Ugh… The pressure is really quite intense… Maybe I should have held back a little after all?

I turned to look at Odeta but… Well… She’s already locked into battle mode as she’s looking straight at the boss monster in anticipation.

The worst part is that Ira and Tsara had the same look on their faces as well.

Odeta jerked her thumb at herself, “Support me, Sister Aster!! We’ll take it down together!!”

I let out a sigh before nodding, “Of course. Leave your back to me. Ira, Tsara… Can I count on you two for this fight as well?”

Both Ira and Tsara nodded.

“Of course, Aster.”

“That goes without saying, Lady Aster.”

We stepped into the boss room and the pressure intensified.

Damn… I think this might actually be the strongest boss we have faced yet… Not counting that Hell Dragon of course…

I immediately used [Screened] on it to check what we were dealing with.

[Name: The Challenger

Race: Monster

Stats:

3000 Strength

400 Dexterity

1000 Endurance

400 Magic

Skills:

Martial Skill-(Unarmed Proficiency (Tier 2)]

Huh… To be honest, it’s not actually that bad?

I mean sure… Its strength is more than twice of Odeta’s but the rest of its stats are just normal I guess?

Oh, maybe only the monster’s strength and endurance is buffed from how hard you punch the machine but the other stats remain the same?

And I sincerely believe I punched harder than someone at three thousand strength so I have a feeling there’s actually a hard cap on how strong this monster could get before it reached a limit.

Well… Still doesn’t change the fact that this boss is still pretty strong so we’ll have to fight it seriously.

I immediately buffed Odeta with [Strength] before she let out a roar and charged in.

The monster also took a moment to brace herself before leaping towards Odeta with her fist pulled back.

The both of them punched out their fists, the action mirroring what happened with the earlier boss monster that Odeta had obliterated just two floors above us.

This time however, the difference could not have been more different.

I was already used to seeing Odeta winning in her contests of strength so the sight of her actually being blown back by the monster felt surreal to me.

I had to leap up into the air to catch her before my Amrap smashed into the wall, my wings flaring out as I slowed us down before I descended back down to the ground.

As though taking offense at that, The Challenger kicked off the ground to leap towards us punching her fist forward towards us.

But before she could reach us, Ira and Tsara appeared beside the monster and performed a textbook double lariat on her.

There was a loud crack sound from the impact and a shockwave suddenly exploded out from the monster, sending Ira and Tsara skidding back and away from it.

Damn… Looks like this thing is actually stronger than we thought…

Are you really sure we’d be alright, Odeta?
