Return of Boros (Currently being Rewritten)

Boros's Feast

Kino quickly walked through Y city to go to the store for clothes. She knew that Boros was really big, so she'd have to get XXL clothes. Although maybe...she should get XXXL clothing? She didn't know exactly how large he was, but she knew that he was a giant compared to her. Her clothing was just XXS due to how small she was, but clothes of that size wouldn't even come close to fitting on him. After thinking a little bit, she just decided to play it safe and get him 4XL clothing. If it was too big, she'll just return it and get XXXL.

Lucky, the trip to the store was relatively uneventful for her. No monsters came out to attack anyone, so that meant that she was safe for now. Immediately, she went to the clothing section and started searching. The prices were...rather high though. She may be able to afford all this, but she might need to get a better job in order to actually live.

Once she was done gathering all the clothes, she sighed. This was going to cost quite a lot of money. Shoes, socks, a couple of shirts and a couple of pairs of pants. She also got a hoodie that she sorta liked. It said Oppai. Maybe it'll fit on Boros? She took the cart up to the checkout and waited as the cashier scanned her items.

"That'll be 15,746 Yen, please."

Yep, it was quite a lot of money...

Pulling out her wallet, she took out the Yen notes and handed it to the waiting cashier. After getting her change, she took the bags and started walking home, but her stomach stopped her. Maybe she should stop by a restaurant and get some food? Thinking back to how Boros was eating, she knew that he definitely wouldn't complain about more food. And maybe she could get some food for herself and that monster she was taking care of in the sewers.

She stopped by a restaurant on the way and got quite a lot of takeout. She was never one to enjoy eating out, so she usually would bring it home to eat anyway. But this...was way too much. The bags containing food such as sushi, tempura, yakitori, gyoza, and onigiri outnumbered the bags with the clothes by at least 5 to 1. Maybe there might be leftovers?

She walked into an alley and set down the bags, arranging a bag to contain some of every food, but mostly sushi.

"There we go, I know she's going to enjoy this."

Knocking on a manhole that was underneath her, she waited as it slowly slid open and a pure black figure peaked out of the hole. Seeing that it was Kino, she seemed to relax.

"Oh, thank god, it's just you, Cyte. Sorry, I've been sorta jittery since that bald guy ripped the weeds out of my head."

Kino picked up the bag she had arranged and handed it to the monster, who eagerly took it.

"It's fine, Kombu. It's good you're cautious, it'll keep any heroes from killing you while you're still recovering."

Kombu was a monster that used to have a head full of seaweed that she could control at will. Having a head full of sword-like tentacles as strong as steel was rather nice for her. She even managed to defeat a couple of A class heroes with them. But then a bald guy came along and ripped her weeds out, saying that he had forgotten to buy Kombu soup stock. Afterward, she had no way to really defend herself from heroes, so she escaped into the sewers and ran. She managed to meet Kino in Y City, and the human posed as a monster in disguise, like she normally did with monsters. Ever since then, she's been taking care of Kombu until she can fend for herself again.

Kombu eagerly started looking through the bag, obviously hungry.

"Oh, sweet! You brought Sashimi! Reminds me of home."

Kombu quickly ripped off the tops of multiple takeout boxes and began devouring the raw fish with both her hands and tentacles.

"I see your seaweed is growing back nicely," Kino stated.
