Wish Execution (4)
Once again, let me say it: touching a woman's breasts isn't that lewd an act in this world. It's a bit of heavy skinship, sure, but if you're asking whether Elly needs to look like the world is ending, then no, it's absolutely not that serious. Still... the real problem is that she was secretly hoping for a slightly naughty wish, only to realize the target wasn't herself but her "trusted junior," and that she now has to helplessly watch everything unfold.
Elly... you're most beautiful when you're being NTR'd! I snickered to myself while thinking that.
In the meantime, Rydia whispered with a complicated expression.
"Yona. Are you really okay with this?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Elly-senpai looks like she's going to be really hurt..."
"She does, doesn't she? But it's not like I'm doing this because I enjoy it. It's necessary."
"?"
Rydia tilted her head. I gave her a bitter smile and said,
"If I was only going to look at Elly, it wouldn't matter. But honestly, I don't think I can do that."
"You can't...? Don't tell me..."
Right in front of her wide eyes, I shook my head. My slightly grown pink hair tickled my eyes.
"You already know, right? Pink hair means a strong libido."
In truth, it was just because I was from Earth.
"One Elly definitely won't be enough to satisfy me."
Honestly, this gender-reversed world is too stimulating for me. I can't even promise to keep my lower half in check, and I'm not sure I even need to.
"Besides, dating multiple people isn't that strange here, is it?"
Above all, on the Pan continent, polygamy is quite common due to the influence of the Goddess of Love. Elly's fantasy of pure love is just because she's an older virgin.
"So think of this as a kind of vaccination. Elly already agreed to it. She's just shocked because she's seeing it happen right in front of her."
"...Yeah. I get it. But there's one thing I'm curious about."
"What is it?"
"If the goal is to vaccinate Elly-senpai, couldn't you just go to Eden's shop manager? Why me?"
Rydia tilted her head again, genuinely confused. I let out a dry laugh at her pure reaction and shook my head.
"Haa. Lady Rydia. You really don't know?"
"Huh?"
"I've been hitting on you for a long time now."
"...Eh?"
"Of course, part of it is because you have the biggest chest among the people I know... but fundamentally, I chose you because it's you, Lady Rydia."
"......"
Rydia's red eyes rolled around, unable to find words. I stood on tiptoe and brought my lips to her ear.
"The Knight of Adultery. Don't you want to try it?"
"......!"
Rydia's eyes flickered like a candle in the wind. I couldn't help but laugh at the obvious desire in them.
"Let's be a little more honest with ourselves. Do we really have to live so nobly? When no one else is watching... isn't it okay to be a little depraved?"
"...I'm watching. You're watching. Elly-senpai is watching."
"C'mon. We're not 'other people,' are we?"
After saying that, I stepped back and looked straight at Rydia's face with a grin.
"I can show you two a slightly depraved side of me, can't I? What about you, Lady Rydia?"
"Eek!"
At Rydia's flinch, I was certain. She was almost mine now. To drive the final nail in, I recalled the image of the Fallen Hero that had gotten a good reaction before. Straightening my back, I slightly lifted my chin and looked down at the world with an arrogant gaze. Pointing at Rydia with my gently raised index finger, I spoke.
"This is an order. Stick out your chest and stay still."
"Okay."
Without any questions or hesitation, Rydia reflexively took the at-ease posture and thrust out her chest. She belatedly looked like she realized her mistake, but it was already too late. Elly must have seen everything—Rydia offering up those large breasts as if asking to be touched.
"R-Rydia? You..."
Elly's voice, heavy with betrayal, trailed off. Had that flipped some kind of switch? Rydia's lips twitched, and soon a shy smile bloomed across her face. The name of that flower was clearly superiority. It must have been even more shocking because Rydia's default expression was blank. Having succeeded in her adulterous pure-love (not yet) scenario, Rydia now leaned her entire body forward, pushing her chest toward me.
"Not gonna touch?"
"I was wondering if I could touch inside your clothes."
"...This is equipment, so it doesn't come off easily."
"So you're saying it's okay to slip my hand inside?"
"......"
Instead of answering, Rydia gave a small nod. I could feel the corners of my mouth curling up uncontrollably.
"Then here I go."
I carefully reached out.
Soft.
Rydia's characteristic fresh scent. Warm body heat. Skin smoother than silk. A fluffy, cushiony sensation. And a heavy weight.
"Whoa..."
A sigh escaped me. It was literally a bomb of sensations. It was clearly packed with everything that could captivate a person. At first, her breasts gently accepted my fingers, but when I applied a certain amount of force, they bounced back with elasticity—an addictive feeling that made me want to keep kneading them.
Squish, squish.
As I slowly savored Rydia's chest and pushed my hand even deeper, a sudden sound escaped her.
"Hnn!"
Something firm touched my fingertips. The uncertain future, the empty reality, even Elly glaring at us from behind—all of it vanished from my mind.
"...I see."
I realized it. I was clearly born to experience this moment.
***
The reason active adventurer Elly was called The Brave was simple. An unbreakable spirit even in the most desperate situations. Strength and skill that could crush all kinds of monsters with a body lacking any special abilities. And the will to willingly lead the way for others. Unyielding. Peerless. Courage. What else would you call someone who possessed all of these if not a hero?
But now, the hero Elly was breaking.
Even when facing a mad dragon alone, even when thrown into an unexplored area without preparation due to a trap, even when stabbed in the back by the children she wanted to protect—she had remained steadfast. Yet the scene before her eyes shattered her heart.
"Hn... haa... haah..."
"Whoa. No way, how is this... hyaa..."
Rydia's voice was filled with seductive moans that were hard to believe came from her. Yona kept exclaiming in admiration while focusing on kneading her breasts. Up to this point, it was fine. It was quite erotic skinship, but not enough for Elly to overreact.
But there was another problem.
"Stop... I told you to take it easy...!"
A pleading voice. There was no way it couldn't be heard at this distance. Yet Yona and Rydia didn't stop. As if Elly didn't even exist in their world, they were lost in their own.
That fact stabbed deeper than anything else.
How did it come to this? Did I do something wrong? I don't remember any such conversation. It was just a verbal promise. Couldn't I just break it and walk away now? Doubts piled up one after another. It was the typical behavior of someone escaping reality when faced with something they couldn't accept.
But Elly was different from ordinary people. Her strong mental fortitude didn't allow for escapism. In the end, after going in circles, what she arrived at was regret, exhaustion, and obsession.
"I liked him first..."
She faced the emotions welling up thickly from deep in her chest without looking away. If she had known it would come to this, she should have pounced when Yona playfully tackled her. If she had known, she should have quit adventuring and taught Yona herself. If she had known, she should have taken Yona out separately from the sixth-floor laboratory. If she had known, if she had known, if she had known, if she had known...
Countless past choices rose up. Regret weighed heavily on Elly's shoulders.
Then what should she do? Should she rush in even now and separate them? But Elly couldn't even do that.
'He's concentrating that hard on just a woman's chest?'
Yona desperately clinging to Rydia's chest looked cute, yet unbearably erotic. Enough to slightly shake her values.
'If I separate them here, I won't be able to watch anymore, right?'
Elly was a lifelong virgin. But that didn't mean she had no sexual desire. To take care of it alone, she often indulged in various lewd books or expensive video-recording orbs she'd bought at a high price.
...And there was one thing all those solo materials had in common. They were meant to be enjoyed while watching. In other words, without even realizing it, Elly's voyeuristic preference had already awakened...
Even as her mind became a mess, her body was honest.
Thump!
A faint fluttering rose from her lower abdomen. Her breathing grew rough from the heat.
"No... that can't be..."
Realizing her own change, Elly shook her head. Of course, that didn't change anything. Rather, the more she strongly denied it, the more she became aware of it, making it even more distracting.
While she was barely suppressing the twisted wolf inside her, her eyes suddenly met Yona's. Those pink eyes curved into crescent moons. As if he understood even this side of her.
"......"
That day, Elly realized one of her hidden preferences.
