A day had passed, and the early morning arrived. Helia, finally recovering from the lingering afterglow of yesterday's acts, let out a small sigh as she prepared to head out.
"......A blunder."
She had sworn as a knight to guide him down the right path, yet things had devolved into her being unilaterally swept away once more. She'd had no prior experience, so she hadn't realized it, but was sex with a man always like this?
No, it's not. From the stories she'd heard from others, it wasn't this immersive with ordinary men.
Yes, she'd never felt such emotions with any man she'd met before. The root problem was that she was aware of him as a man. That's why she'd swallowed her guilt by comforting herself with the memory of sucking his cock, and when she finally surrendered to the act with him, she'd truly drowned in pleasure.
So if she went through with it again under the pretext of guidance, it would end in the same messy disaster as before...
Slap!! Helia smacked her cheek to banish those thoughts, steeling her weakening resolve as she left her room.
"It's a matter of mental fortitude. If I keep my mind sharp, it'll be fine."
If things were like yesterday, he'd show up at the training ground on time, and she just needed to treat him as usual. With that determination, Helia headed to the training ground—only to find someone already there before her.
"Martina?"
"Oh, you're here? I was waiting so long my neck was killing me... cough, oh, it's just you."
Martina's face fell the moment she saw Helia. It was behavior far removed from the Martina she knew. Usually, they'd greet each other warmly, then Martina would flash that irritating grin and toss out snide remarks.
"......You've returned from the expedition."
Of course, Helia knew it stemmed from their rivalry as colleagues, so she'd never made an issue of it. Trying to treat her as usual, Martina sneered and kept up the barbs.
"Yeah~ And someone didn't even bother coming to see me. How disappointing~ After all these years together, no welcome for your friend, just snoring away in your room."
"No, I had work to do then..."
"Work? If it's the guy you're guiding, he was with me all day yesterday?"
Helia flinched at Martina's jab, her body trembling reflexively. What she'd just said was something Helia couldn't ignore.
"Adrian was... with you?"
"Yup. We spent the whole day together while you were gone~"
"The whole day...? What happened with him?"
"Heh, curious?"
Helia, who would normally brush off such daily trivialities, was showing interest first. As Martina savored a strange sense of superiority, she recounted yesterday's events in brief.
"I was curious about the man the lord was interested in, so I dropped by. Heh heh, turns out he was way more into me than I thought."
"Adrian... was interested in you...?"
"Yeah~ So while you were away, I spent the whole day~ thoroughly training him just how he wanted. I etched myself into every corner of that body, turning it into one that can't live without me now~"
Martina puffed out her chest with a confident "Heh heh." Helia's mind went blank white for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure, remembering who Martina was.
"......You're still as bad at jokes as ever."
"Not a joke. For real."
"The academy was women-dominated, and since serving Lady Renes, you've been as buried in duties as I have—with zero experience with men. There's no way you could train him."
Thud!! A shock hit like a dagger to the heart. And in that instant, Martina caught Helia's lips curling up slightly, as if delighted to have landed a hit.
That... rotten bitch...
It was a situation where an emotional outburst wouldn't be out of place. Yet Martina regained her calm. After all, she'd already lost her virginity; no need to be ashamed of it anymore.
"S-So what? We ended up liking each other and went at it—that much is true, right?"
"Went at it? You..."
"Oh dear, why the sour face? Anyone would think you're pissed that I've gotten close to your boy~"
Right now, the key was that she'd hooked up with him, and anything interfering needed to be sidelined. No need for distractions.
"Just checking, but Lady Helia hasn't gone and fallen for a man, has she?"
The Helia she knew would never hang on a man's neck. To her, priority one and two were this city. With her loyalty to Renes blooming solely to protect it, she'd have no time for wandering eyes.
"......Martina. I won't pry further into what happened yesterday. But remember one thing."
But the words that followed her silence carried an unexpected obsessiveness.
"Adrian is under my charge. He'll be spending time with me going forward, so you should step aside and tend to other duties."
"......My ears must be clogged today. Say that again?"
"If you didn't hear, I'll repeat it."
Her eyes hardened. A gaze filled with hostility she'd never shown a comrade before.
"Adrian is my responsibility. So back off."
"Hah, you stay away from my man."
Meeting that venomous glare with the same, Helia's expression twisted fiercer.
"You gave him your heart in that short time? You, who only had eyes for yourself until now?"
"That's my line. A duty-obsessed loyalty drone like you losing it over a guy? Guess his dick was that good, huh?"
"Whatever the reason, I was by his side first. No room for you to butt in."
"First doesn't always mean last. What matters is who claims him in the end, right?"
No quarter given in their verbal sparring. But no resolution would come from words alone. Women in this world were satisfied only by actions.
Crash! Knowing this well, Helia hurled the bucket of wooden swords across the training ground, grabbed one, tossed it to Martina, and said,
"Come to think of it, you've always had a rivalry with me. Might as well settle who's superior once and for all."
"Heh, perfect. We've both been swamped with missions, no chance to clash. Time to sort the pecking order."
Crackle, buzz! Mana raged wildly through the wooden swords like ferocious beasts. Facing each other with these weapons, the two instinctively knew: one might not leave this place alive today. That's what a woman's all-out fight meant.
"Rush in half-assed and you'll die!"
"My line, you rotten bitch!!"
Kaboom!!! Their swords clashed at last, engulfing everything in blinding light.
*****
Rumble!! The ground split, fierce winds howled, lightning and flames sparked everywhere, scrambling the view. A miniature apocalypse, no exaggeration.
And it was the handiwork of the two women facing off here.
"Sh-Shit, what the hell is that?"
Was this the legendary catfight I'd only heard about? No, the women's fights I knew were just sniping barbs, gossip wars, or hair-pulling. But this? It was warlike. Intense enough that one dying wouldn't surprise me—my chest pounded just watching.
Scary as hell, the women of this world...
Just yesterday, both had been moaning under me. Thinking back, they'd gone easy because I was a man.
"C-Calm down, you two!"
Letting this continue might wreck the whole area. Since I figured I was the cause, intervening might mediate somehow.
"Don't fight over me—talk it out first..."
Whoosh! Amid the storm, a fast-moving blur shot toward me. I realized it was a hefty rock shard only when it was right in my face.
Bam! It smashed into my head and shattered spectacularly. Unable to withstand the impact, my strength drained, and my head slammed mercilessly to the ground.
"A-Adrian!?"
"Shit! Hey! You okay!?"
The two rushed over late, but their voices faded as if my soul was ascending to the heavens...
Ah, so this is how I go. If I'd noticed their friction sooner, could I have stopped it? By picking one and sidelining the other...
No, choosing between them? In this world where I'd been rock-hard every moment since arriving, that was too cruel.
If I could, I'd do them both. Threesomes every day with those two—dream come true!
"Mmph, mmf."
Lost in fantasy, I vaguely heard groans. Tuning in, I realized another set joined in.
"Ahh, huff... ♥"
Heat. Something wet kept touching my crotch—my rock-hard cock. What? Someone dabbing it with a wet cloth?
My senses sharpened, darkness lifted from my vision, revealing an unfamiliar ceiling. Lowering my gaze, I saw my pants off, and Helia and Martina with their mouths at my crotch.
"Mmm..."
"A-Adrian? You're awake?"
They froze, faces inches from my dick, embarrassment plain. In this utterly illogical situation, I blurted,
"Uh, what the hell is this?"
"Ah, uh, c-cal m down first. I-I'll explain! So, what happened was..."
"Mmph, mmf!"
"Ahh! Martina, you! Sucking on your own again!? Get off!!"
Back to bickering like before I blacked out. Still, my crotch stayed stiff from the stimulation while I was out, ignoring the chaos.
......Anyway, can't just lie here. Better pull back and think.
