Chapter 42
“Like hell I can do that!”
[Heh, if you don't, you might die here, you know? Is it really that hard? You act like such a slut all the time, after all.]
Crazy bitch.
Now this parasite is telling me to let the Hero have his way with me, urging me to try it like she's recommending some food.
Hmm, but thinking about it, she is saying to use my body, so maybe it's not a problem?
No, damn it, that's not the issue.
I can't give up my masculinity.
-Kooooooong!
Meanwhile, the Hero was unleashing an overwhelming pressure that crushed the entire surrounding area.
He looked like he'd lost his reason.
Thanks to that, the holy knights and citizens were crawling on the ground like cockroaches—a bizarre sight.
[Huh, this is the power of Ruin. The Hero seems to have been under a lot of stress, so why don't you hurry up and—]
“Damn it! Shut up for a second!”
The annoying, perverted parasite's words weren't helping in this situation.
It was only egging me on.
So I forcibly shut it up.
[You know this is an extremely dangerous situation. I truly don't understand why you're so resistant.]
Of course I know that.
I know the Hero is trying to kill me right now.
And I know I need to resolve this situation quickly.
But.
“This isn't right……”
The solution is to let him have his way with my body?
I can't understand or accept it.
Isn't that just saying a man should get off inside a hybrid like me—a man in a woman's body?
He might slice my head off the moment I tried, and I feel grossed out, too.
[Honestly, you're so stubborn. Why do you think you're a man? Your attitude, gestures, even the things you say are those of a female through and through.]
“W-When did I ever!”
The parasite spouted absurd sophistry.
When had I ever acted like a female?
Feeling wronged, I explained one by one all the manly things I'd done.
Like going to the bathroom with the Hero like a man, showing him my underwear and breasts without embarrassment like a man, asking him to slap my ass like a man, inviting him to bathe with me like a man, and like a man……
Anyway, I endlessly asserted my masculinity!
[You really are a crazy bitch.]
“Huh.”
I could tell from the parasite's tone that it was fed up with me.
As expected, women couldn't understand these manly moves.
Hmm, well, can't be helped.
“Ugh, I'll kill them all……”
A voice came from above.
The Hero was saying the utterly insane thing that he was going to kill everyone.
His sticky hatred reached even me.
This was a desperate moment, with my life in danger.
Or it would have been!
But now I'd found a way.
A way to survive without letting the Hero have his way with me.
A way to protect my masculinity.
“Let's give it a try.”
I immediately got up and faced the Hero.
Then I reached out toward the Hero and—
“Bang.”
-Puhk!
I connected a strand of mana to the space between his brows.
Then my vision began to flicker.
Soon after, I lost consciousness and collapsed.
***
[Answer me at once! What exactly was that just now?!]
“I told you, I don't really know……”
The parasite excitedly started asking me about the magic I'd just used.
But I didn't answer.
‘Because I really don't know.’
I really did that on impulse.
I just somehow felt like I had to do it, so I tried it haphazardly—and somehow arrived in what seemed to be the Hero's mental world.
What I could see was the inside of an elementary school, like something from modern times.
I was standing by the central staircase on the first floor.
“But why am I wearing a uniform in an elementary school? I don't get it.”
What I was wearing was a black sailor uniform straight out of a Japanese anime.
It had a red ribbon on the chest and a skirt that barely reached halfway down my thighs.
A Japanese-style uniform in a Korean elementary school—what kind of hybrid was this? But I decided to just let it go.
It was the Hero's mental world, so I shouldn't try to understand it.
‘Ah, but it'd be bad if the Demon King found out about this world……’
[Could it be because you're my servant……? No, then I would have known……. New magic? I've never heard or seen anything like this…….]
The parasite was muttering something in my head.
Hmm, apparently there was no problem.
The parasite didn't seem bothered by this at all.
Could it have peeked into my memories?
[Honestly…… Being with you is one surprise after another. Anyway, Yubel. Where are you going now?]
“Hmm…… There's just something I need to do.”
I climbed the central staircase and eventually reached the level marked 4F.
The third-grade classrooms were lined up there.
Then I slowly began walking down the long, empty hallway.
For some reason, the farther I went, the more my heart seemed to pound.
Could this be the fear of kenopsia?
They say you feel afraid when a normally crowded place is empty.
How long had I walked like that?
I passed the boys' and girls' bathrooms and stopped in front of a sign at the end of the hall that read 3-6.
[Have you arrived? I truly find your actions puzzling.]
This was the classroom I remembered from my last year in elementary school.
My other memories…… somehow, I couldn't really remember them.
Ever since coming to this world, my memories had felt hazy.
-Rattle.
I pushed the sliding door, so characteristic of schools, with a little force.
Inside were desks carved with graffiti, a blackboard, and chairs scattered carelessly about.
And windows so bright I couldn't see outside.
The pure-white curtains danced, as if a breeze were blowing.
And between those curtains, someone stood still.
“Hero.”
It was the Hero.
The summoned Hero with hollow black eyes.
Perhaps he still hadn't come to his senses, because he was sitting on the window frame, silently staring at me.
‘That's fucking scary.’
No, the setting had the feel of some youth drama.
But with the character in it staring at me with dead eyes, I felt like I was about to develop a phobia.
“Hey, Hero? Haha……. You're really mad at me, aren't you? I didn't actually want to do that……”
First, let's try to work things out by talking.
Since this was a mental world, I could talk to him without having to worry about dying.
Maybe we could even settle things amicably here?
I never thought he'd try to kill me just because I kept him from meeting the Saint.
I clasped my hands behind my back and slowly approached the Hero.
As I drew closer, I began to make out the Hero's outfit……
‘Oh, fuck. Why is this bastard naked?’
Unlike me, who was dressed normally, the Hero was completely naked.
The one small consolation was that his dick was hidden by some mysterious light.
Anyway, I tried my best to avert my eyes and not look at it.
“I was scared……”
“Huh?”
“I was so scared of losing her……”
Was he afraid of losing the Saint?
Hah, that's ridiculous.
“I see……. Yeah, it's okay now. I mean, I'm right here, aren't I? Right?”
I approached and spoke to him.
The Hero seemed mentally fragile, so I told him it was all right if he lost the Saint, and that I'd fill the void for him.
That's what I said.
Since this was a mental world, maybe I could brainwash the Hero.
“Ugh, thank you……. And I'm really, really sorry……”
“There, there. Let it all out here, then we'll leave, okay?”
“Hic, sniff, r-really……?”
“Of course. That's how it should— Eek!” [Oho.]
-Grab!
In an instant, I came to my senses.
The naked Hero suddenly pulled me into his arms!
Since he had wrapped his arms around my waist, my arms, which had been behind my back, were trapped.
I immediately shot the Hero a look that asked, ‘What the hell are you doing?’
The Hero met my gaze with his burning eyes.
How should I put it…… it was like looking at a ferocious beast.
“I can't hold back anymore……”
“W-What do you mean— Mmph!?”
The protest I was about to make never left my mouth, as a soft sensation sealed my lips.
Along with the Hero's face drawing near in an instant, the precariously maintained boundary was shattered.
That boundary I'd never allowed anyone to cross until now.
It was broken in a single moment.
By the Hero's kiss.
“Mmph!? N-No, mmph!!”
It was only our lips touching.
But it filled me with unparalleled terror.
I'd heard that people got pregnant from kissing in this world, so this was practically half a sexual act.
So I twisted my whole body, trying to escape.
But I couldn't move an inch.
The Hero had both my arms pinned, and even though I wanted to kick him, his thighs had somehow settled between my legs.
So all I could do was wiggle my fingers.
I couldn't resist any further.
Instead, the Hero pressed himself even closer.
-Smooch.
“!!!”
The moment I opened my mouth to breathe, the Hero's tongue pushed its way inside!
At the sensation of a starving snake coiling around my neck, my whole body shivered with chills.
And that snake finally found my short tongue……
Slowly,
began to savor it.
-Slurp, smack, slurp.
‘N-Nooo……!’
This wasn't just a peck anymore; it was a kiss—and sex—in the truest sense.
Before I knew it, tears had welled up in my eyes.
I could only pray I wouldn't get pregnant, since this was a mental world.
‘Haa, I-I have to run……!’
I never thought the deranged Hero would mistake me for a woman and do this.
He'd already touched Riella; maybe he'd gotten a taste for getting people pregnant.
-Suck, slurp, slurrrp!
I heard the sticky sound of tongues tangling right beside my ear.
And as I grew short of breath, I eventually couldn't resist the Hero's tongue and……
swallowed that hot liquid.
-Gulp.
Saliva passed down my throat and became part of my body.
Naturally, I felt my body growing hot.
-Haaah!
The Hero-filled view before me finally began to clear a little.
It seemed the kiss he'd forced on me had ended.
The thin strand of saliva connecting our lips proved it.
“Pha, haa……, hoo……”
“Bweh……”
The Hero panted hotly, like someone who'd nearly suffocated.
But the same went for me.
And so, the two of us exchanged hot breaths for a moment.
-Smooch.
“Hmph……!”
The Hero pressed his lips against mine again and slipped in his tongue.
A loud, wet sound of friction rang out.
Even that moisture carried a sticky warmth.
My head was already thrown back as far as it could go, and the Hero pressed his body even closer, as if determined not to let me go.
The Hero's thigh pressed closer between my legs.
Before I knew it, I was cornered in the classroom and sitting with my weight on his thigh.
-Smack, slurp, smack.
“Haaah♡”
After that, once, twice, three times…… dozens of times.
With hot breaths, our saliva mixed together wildly, and the Hero's passionate saliva flowed back and forth through my body.
My mind grew hazy, as though shrouded in fog.
Could kissing really feel this good?
The Hero, too, seemed swept up in the mood, thrusting his tongue in as if he truly intended to get me pregnant.
‘Haa, that's so irresponsible♡ I-If this goes on, I'm really going to…….’
I felt powerless.
If this guy really wanted to, I was nothing.
All I could do was clasp my hands and pray.
I was…… this fragile.
That sort of hollow feeling.
At least in this space, this guy was God.
And I was probably that God's toy.
-Press.
‘Ah♡’
I slowly closed my eyes.
Praying that the pleasure in my lower belly was a lie.
I shut out my vision as if to turn away from reality.
‘I'm definitely pregnant……♡’
The Hero's thigh was wet.
