Chapter 146: Sleep Talk
After finishing his consultation with the nun, Yohan immediately returned to the bustling street to find Evangeline.
It didn't take long to find her. Evangeline was standing in front of a shop with her hood up. Even though her face was covered, it felt as if a halo was shining from her.
The halo Yohan saw was likely not a hallucination or magic. It was her own charm that felt like light.
“Teacher.”
“Ah, Yohan!”
Evangeline, who had been wearing a slightly gloomy expression, bloomed into a bright smile the moment she saw her disciple. The light emanating from her body grew even more intense, now looking like a sun.
Yohan smiled back, basking in the sunlight. Evangeline reached out to him and wrapped her hand around the nape of his neck.
“Yohaaan, gimme a kiss.”
“Huh? Teacher, what’s this all of a sudden…”
“Just do it if I ask… Hmm? You won’t?”
Seeing his teacher suddenly acting cute, Yohan forgot they were on the street and gave her a peck on the lips.
Evangeline, who had been pestered by other men while Yohan was away, seemed delighted by his presence and kissed him back again and again.
“Mhm! That’s better now!”
“Really… You’re not a child.”
“Hehe, I’ll be a child! If it means I can kiss you, Yohan!”
Evangeline said, taking Yohan’s hand and interlacing their fingers. Feeling her grip take over his hand, Yohan began to swing their arms back and forth.
The two, who looked for all the world like lovers, enjoyed their date, strolling through the kingdom.
Yohan and Evangeline roamed the city. He had felt it before when they lived in the cabin—as expected of a world infused with fantasy, this world wasn't simply underdeveloped.
The fact that there wasn't shit and piss rolling around on the streets proved it. After all, wasn't the medieval period supposed to be a hellscape where a terrible stench, bugs, and excrement were the norm?
The cities in this other world had sewers, and waste was disposed of through them. There was almost no stench on the streets, and the people maintained their cleanliness.
“Mmm~! The night air is so nice.”
After enjoying a date on the streets during the day, Evangeline entered a high-class inn and restaurant at night. She spoke while looking out the window.
As befitting an expensive window seat, the stars in the night sky outside were incredibly clear. It was a view of astronomical value, something one couldn't easily see in the modern era.
Yohan looked back and forth between Evangeline and the night sky, then let out a small laugh.
“Hmm? Yohan, why did you just laugh?”
“Because there isn't much difference between the night sky and you, Teacher.”
“What does that mean…?”
“It meant that you're as beautiful as those stars, Teacher.”
“Hehe, is that so?”
Evangeline fanned herself with her hand as if embarrassed and took a sip of her wine. He couldn't remember the name, but it was expensive wine, at any rate.
A wine where you could only taste the sweetness of the grapes, with none of the characteristic heat or bitterness of alcohol. It was a wine that suited both his teacher, who had a childish palate, and himself.
‘Tonight, we’re doing it. We will. We have to…’
Evangeline, who was downing her wine like water, stealthily glanced at Yohan. His cheeks were slightly flushed, just like hers.
It was probably because of the alcohol, but she couldn't help but feel expectant all the same. Was he horny, just like her?
Of course, they did have sex today. They did, but because they couldn't finish properly in the uncomfortable confines of the carriage, Evangeline's sexual desire hadn't been properly satisfied and was instead building up.
“Teacher?”
“Y-yes?”
“I'm getting sleepy… Shall we head in?”
“Yes!”
Hearing Yohan's words, Evangeline downed her wine as if she'd been waiting for this and quickly stood up.
She wiped her mouth and dragged Yohan towards the room they had reserved. Anyone who saw them would have suspected their genders were reversed.
Once in the room, Evangeline used magic to clean both their bodies. …Except for his dick.
However, Yohan, as if intending to keep his word, immediately lay down on the bed and started to close his eyes.
“……Hey, Yohan?”
“Good night to you too, Teacher…”
“No, I mean… are you really going to sleep? For real?”
Lying down right next to Yohan, who was on the bed with his eyes closed, Evangeline stared at him in disbelief.
But Yohan was motionless, showing no sign of moving.
At this rate, it felt like the night would end with nothing happening at all, so Evangeline immediately slipped out of her clothes.
“Now, now~ It's your pretty teacher's naked body.”
“I've seen that so many times, it doesn't really do anything for me anymore…”
“W-what!? You should be happy no matter how many times you see your teacher's naked body!”
When she showed a flash of anger, Yohan carefully opened his eyes as if to say, ‘I get it.’ Then he hugged Evangeline and lay down on the bed with her.
“I'm happy. Now let's sleep.”
“A-are we really not going to do anything…?”
“What should I do… I'm sleepy, but I want to sleep with you, Teacher…”
Watching Yohan speak while half-asleep, Evangeline realized that he was genuinely tired.
Well, if he were in his right mind, he would have already been fucking her. He was probably even more tired because of what she did today.
As a sign of her repentance, Evangeline buried Yohan in her embrace and fell asleep. …Although she did grope his dick a few times in her sleep, it was nothing more than sleep talk.
[Damn human! Die!]
Arachne spat out her thread. Yohan quickly dodged it, but his body felt strangely heavy, and he didn't have his suit.
In the end, Yohan was hit by the spiderweb Arachne spat out and ended up tied up tightly.
“Kugh-! Kill me!”
[Khuhuhuhu- Kill me? That's not a bad idea. But you see…]
Arachne approached him and tore off his limbs as if shelling crab legs.
Instantly turned into a limbless Daruma doll, Yohan trembled in pain and glared at Arachne.
[Kekekeke. I much prefer watching you suffer like this─!!]
Arachne didn't stop there; she cut open Yohan's stomach and pulled out his organs, or reattached his severed limbs only to tear them off again.
The pain was so intense it brought tears to his eyes. Yohan continued to suffer until he was finally subjected to sexual torture.
[Keeheehee- Feel good? How does it feel to cum from being taken by a monster like me?]
“Fucking, awful…!”
[Kyahaha! Good, very good!]
Every time he suffered, she became happy.
Every time he was in agony, she rejoiced.
Yohan realized this cycle would never end. He had to defeat her with his own power. But how?
Such a thing was impossible. The holy knight techniques he learned from Ludwig. They were powers that allowed him to fight against monsters, not techniques that allowed him to escape with brute force after being captured by one.
His magic nullification ability was the same. His magic was to nullify the magic used by his opponent.
The thread holding him was spun directly by Arachne, and the monstrous strength that held him wasn't magic, but the inherent power of the creature called Arachne.
There was no room for magic to interfere here.
[Keehahahaha-!]
And yet, his instincts were telling him.
—You can do it.
Your power is not like this.
‘What is my power?’
My power is simply to nullify magic.
……Then what about curses?
How on earth was I able to remove curses?
Lost in thought for a moment, Yohan delved into the source of his power. His teacher had said his power was similar to Divine Power.
Divine Power is the power of a god, a power that eliminates everything except that which is acknowledged by the god.
How on earth could such a thing be possible? Yohan had once asked the Cardinal.
‘What did the Cardinal say back then?’
Divine Power is the power of faith.
The result of one's faith reaching the heavens, and God rewarding it.
So, the reason I can nullify magic is…
‘Because I came from Earth?’
Because I came from 21st-century Earth, where things like magic and superpowers don't exist. Because my conscious and subconscious both reject those foreign concepts.
The moment Yohan realized this, the threads holding him and Arachne herself simply vanished.
And at the same time—Yohan himself woke from the dream.
“Hmmnya- Yohaaan…”
In reality, his teacher was groping his dick and talking in her sleep.
Yohan carefully removed her hand and looked down at Evangeline.
‘……Teacher.’
She felt so fragile, as if she would break at a single touch.
And so, he was afraid to even dare touch her.
For Evangeline, today had been a very lucky day. She'd gotten one over on those damn church bastards, and she'd also enjoyed a date with her lovely disciple.
She'd stopped by a restaurant with a nice atmosphere, had a meal, drank wine, and even heard her disciple confess that she was beautiful.
So yes, today was a lucky day. And a lucky day should have a good ending.
It should have—
“Teacher.”
“Yes.”
“Please die.”
The moment she heard Yohan's words, Evangeline felt as if time had frozen.
“For me.”
