Chapter 19 - Do Me This Favor
A sense of lightness washed over me, and my eyes fluttered open. It felt refreshing, like I'd just shed tight, stuffy clothes. As my vision cleared, there was Lizbet, gazing at me with a slightly teary expression—the same Lizbet I'd been fantasizing about right before passing out, once I'd realized my true desires.
Seeing her face lifted my spirits for no reason at all. The fog that had clouded my mind for days finally lifted from a corner of my head. Ha Eun-jin. The trauma of my old life. But reflecting on those memories and awakening to my real desires had surprisingly erased all the anger, sadness, and pain I'd felt toward her. Hell, I even felt grateful now. The fact that she was my ex-girlfriend barely registered anymore.
Recalling her on a leash, fawning over another man, all that remained was a desire to make Lizbet do the same. I doubted I'd think of her much from now on. Her face was already fading into a blur.
"Sema! You're awake!"
"How's your body feeling, Sema?"
Als approached from behind Lizbet, clutching his right arm and limping. Looked like he hadn't blocked Erebos's hind kick properly... So what about Erebos?
"I'm fine. How long was I out? Erebos... no, that two-headed cat bastard?"
"About ten minutes... That demon beast..."
Als's face twisted as he glanced toward where the magic circle had been. The circle and the dimensional gate above it were gone. No sign of Erebos either, so it must've attacked us and vanished.
"Got it... What about you, Lizbet? You hurt anywhere?"
"I'm okay... Sorry. I just froze up..."
Lizbet hung her head beside me, looking deflated. That expression stirred something strange in me again, but it didn't feel confusing anymore. My cleared mind knew exactly what it was.
"When someone's protected you, you say thanks. Glad you're not hurt."
"Uh, y-yeah... Thanks..."
Once I'd checked my condition and the situation, we discussed next steps. Best plan: head out of the dungeon, report to the adventurers waiting at the entrance, pull back, regroup, and hunt Erebos. But Als looked rough—sweat pouring down his face, arms and legs barely holding up.
Even taking the shortest route back would take half a day. Riding on my back, even if comfy, would jostle him too much in that state. He insisted, as a hero, he'd be fine as long as it wasn't life-threatening and he rested. So we decided to leave the boss room, rest in a nearby open area, then head back.
We'd figured out the dungeon anomaly, and the lack of demon beasts on the way in was basically confirmed safe. No dangers ahead. The spot was close and he could walk, so he didn't ride me—just limped to a nearby room.
"......"
On the way, I watched Lizbet's back as she glanced worriedly at Als ahead. Actually, since opening my eyes, they'd been glued to her. I'd learned what I wanted while unconscious.
Als's injuries? Not my problem.
We reached a wide room near the boss chamber, set up camp like before, and soon Als was asleep. His pained expression eased a bit in slumber. The old me—before Erebos's mystery attack knocked me out—would've worried seeing him like that.
But now? I was almost grateful for his state.
Confirming Als was out, I approached Lizbet, who was staring at his face.
"Lizbet. Mind a quick private chat?"
"Huh? Sure... What's up?"
"Not here. Side room over there..."
I headed to an adjacent room on the opposite side, and she followed with a puzzled look.
Lizbet. The first woman I met in this world. Als's lover, his childhood friend. And the perfect bitch for my twisted desires.
Having awakened to those desires, I knew I couldn't just vent them recklessly. No one would understand—hell, even I felt wary and afraid. I'd spent my life wearing the mask of the perfect, model guy. Dropping it cold turkey was tough.
But now that I knew my true self, I had no intention of denying it. Just control it, release it in moderation. Obsession destroys people. Manage it right, and you're good.
So how to control my warped lust? Simple: pick targets. Poking any woman with a boyfriend? That's just a lunatic consumed by desire.
But one? Maybe two at most? Devoting myself to one bitch, stealing her from her male? The loser might resent it, but it's no big deal. To outsiders, just a guy losing the mating game over one girl.
So, Als. I'm making Lizbet mine. The first woman I met here—your lover. Blame your limp dick for leaving such prime pussy unguarded.
She's gonna be mine from now on.
"...Lizbet."
"Y-yeah? What?"
Sensing something off in my expression, she asked tensely.
"Got a favor to ask..."
"A favor?"
Yeah. A request. From the me who knows his desires... to the bitch who's about to become mine.
"Uh... Lizbet. You thanked me earlier, right?"
"Huh? Y-yeah, I did."
She looked a bit flustered, curious what this was about. Then, words that'd shock her slipped from my mouth.
"Then handle my sexual needs from now on."
"......Huh?"
Her face blanked, like she couldn't process what she'd heard. Moments later, it flushed crimson, and she yelled.
"Y-you, y-you, y-you perverted monster freak!!! What the hell are you saying!?"
"Shh. Als'll hear. Lower your voice."
She flinched, then hissed low.
"P-perv!! D-do you even know what you just said!? Sexual needs!? Did something go wrong when you blacked out!?"
"Maybe? But it's not a bad request, right?"
"How is that not a bad request?!"
She trembled, face beet-red. Even that looked cute now.
"Look, these past couple nights during your watch, you've been sneaking peeks and fondling my horse cock, yeah? You're into it."
"......!?!?"
She froze in shock, embarrassment flooding her face. Knowing I'd caught her shameful secret while "asleep" must've mortified her.
"I wasn't gonna mention it 'cause it'd embarrass you. But while out, I sensed my body's deal. My lust ain't normal. This dick pops up against my will daily—it's a hassle. Gotta release it on time or that discomfort sticks."
"......"
Head down, face burning, she listened silently.
"Realizing that on waking up? No way I can hold back anymore. Can't hit a brothel like this. You're the only one I can ask. And since you sneak fondles at night, seems like you're interested..."
"P-perv...! I didn't...!"
She denied it, face aflame. Liar. Status Window told me everything.
"If I'd known you were that hooked, maybe you wouldn't have squeezed me for clothes money. But whatever—I owed you, and they suit you fine. Still, blacking out protecting you made me realize I can't endure. If you're grateful I saved you, help a guy out..."
"......"
She glared, eyes misty, face red. No denying it point by point. Her curiosity about my cock, my protection, her gratitude—all true.
"D-damnit...! You perverted monster...! Why me!? I got Als...!"
"No one else to ask. Don't know many people. And..."
I met her shy gaze.
"I want you, Lizbet, to do it."
"......"
She glared wordlessly.
"Won't ask forever. Just till I get Humanization Skill. Won't tell Als—total secret. No blackmail either. Not asking for sex with this body—just hands, mouth, feet, whatever. Handle it... please?"
"......"
Head still low and flushed, she went quiet awhile. Then she looked up.
"...Just till you get Humanization Skill. If anyone or Als finds out during or after, I'll kill you. Hands only—if you demand more, I'll roast you on the spot."
"Got it, got it. Thanks, Lizbet."
"Never breathe a word to anyone."
"Won't. Won't show it either—relax. I get how weird asking a girl this is."
Face still red, she sighed, deflated.
"Haa... How'd I end up with a perverted monster like you..."
"Fate. Guess you accept? Then..."
I flipped the cloth off my body with my teeth, twisting my flexible neck to expose my horse cock.
"Ah...! W-what...!"
"Handle it now, yeah?"
Lizbet. I'll mold you into my bitch, nice and slow.
