Sensory Blocking Magic (7)
A brief silence settled over them.
Yu-ra asked carefully.
"Is that it?"
"...Yeah. It is, but... I can't get it off."
That was the problem. Aside from an alarm that popped up with nothing but a name, there was nothing there at all. Nothing I could do.
Which meant...
I have to give birth to a Pussy Plug and bring it here, don't I?
A deep disappointment settled in my chest as I pulled up my status window.
The last ejaculation they'd wrung out of him with the drug didn't seem to have been very efficient.
A hole that could drive even a monstrous Black cock like that one completely insane.
Anyway, I'd finally found it, but...
There's nothing I can actually do about it.
Either that bastard Thomas needed to hurry up and fill the remaining fifteen percent, or some other guy had to come here and finish inside. I wasn't about to lose my mind and try to raise it further myself, so Thomas was going to have to step up.
As I sat there drowning in a moment of despair, Yu-ra spoke up.
"Hmm, if I put some force into it, I think I could pull it off?"
"Ah, no. It's fine, Yu-ra."
I hurriedly stopped her, and a faintly puzzled look crossed her face.
If we mess with that thing, something even worse might happen.
"...Is this really a slime?"
"...Yeah."
"For real?"
"I'm sorry. Later, I promise... I'll definitely tell you everything."
I couldn't meet Yu-ra's staring eyes and hung my head. The guilt made it hard to even speak. But I didn't want my friend to find out. That this thing was connected to my pussy. That this Black guy had just been furiously thrusting his cock into it. And that every time it happened, I came like a crazy perverted bitch.
Just because we'd ended up in an adult game didn't mean everyone was a pervert. If anything, there were plenty of normal people.
"Okay. I'll wait."
"...Thanks."
Fortunately, Yu-ra accepted my delay. Or maybe she'd figured it out and was just letting it slide.
We roughly flipped Thomas back over and headed outside.
"...It's 9:45."
The intervals between Thomas's loads had been so short that that was all the time that had passed. We hurried toward the entrance, and a potbellied middle-aged man came walking out.
"Hey there, you done?"
"No, Mr. Thomas seemed busy with something else."
"Ah... is that so? Then maybe you and I..."
"No, we'll be heading back."
The man's face turned slightly menacing.
"Student, if you snuck in, you ought to pay the price for sneaking in."
"Is that so? If I start screaming right here, whose side do you think the Academy will take?"
"..."
At Yu-ra's chilling voice, the menace on his face went stone dead. I sent Yu-ra out first and spoke quietly to the man.
"I'm sorry — my friend has a bit of a temper. Anyway, Mr. Thomas really was in the middle of something. That's why we were thinking of coming back next time."
"Ah... r-right?"
"Yes, so I'd appreciate it if we could let this incident slide quietly. If I start coming by often, who knows? Maybe you and I will get to know each other."
He swallowed.
"R-right. Hurry along now."
"Yes."
The man sent Yu-ra and me off with a bright smile.
A pretty face really is the best, after all.
Once we were outside, Yu-ra turned her back to me.
"Ready, miss?"
"...Can you actually do this?"
"Of course. What do you take an Academy knight trainee for?"
I slowly climbed onto Yu-ra's back. We had barely ten minutes left to reach the dorms. Covering that distance with this body of mine was impossible, so I left it to her.
"Mm..."
"Oh... our Naho's chest really is something else, huh?"
"Sh-shut up..."
The sensation of my breasts pressing firmly into her broad back. For some reason, Yu-ra's grip on my thighs seemed to tighten.
"Alright, hold on tight!"
"Okaaay!!"
The next instant, Yu-ra's soles kicked off the ground and my body lurched backward.
"Kyaah!"
"Hold on!!"
From there we tore across the grass field at a mad sprint, heading into the Academy grounds. We shot past the security guard who was just getting ready to close the school gates, like a streak of light.
"Huh?"
"Hello, mister~~!"
And just like that, we passed the gate guard too. We arrived in front of the Academy dormitory gates in what felt like an instant. I almost wondered if I was dreaming.
"Huff, huff..."
"Wow... you're so fast..."
Heat rose in waves off Yu-ra's back. Feeling myself getting flushed too, I hurriedly climbed down.
"What, why not ride a little longer? Our Naho's thighs were so soft."
"Hey!"
She'd been squeezing them, I just knew it.
As we bickered our way inside, Scarlet came walking out.
"Hmm... 9:58. You barely made it, didn't you?"
"We arrived on time, teacher."
"...Go on up."
"Have a good evening."
As I headed up the stairs, Scarlet called after me.
"Don't skip class tomorrow, student Oh Na-ho!"
I just dipped my head and headed for the rooms with Yu-ra.
Before I could go inside, Yu-ra pulled me into a tight hug. Even after she let go, the look in her eyes as she gazed at me was anything but ordinary.
"Y-Yu-ra?"
"Sniff... our Naho smells so good."
"Hey..."
"Just a little more... sniff. Something, something... that's a really dirty smell, isn't it...?"
"W-what are you talking about!"
A strangely draining weakness washed through me. Only after I smacked her arm did Yu-ra step back, looking embarrassed.
"Ahem. Anyway, today was fun. Right?"
"...Yeah. It was fun."
Looking at Yu-ra's bright smile, I figured — well, whatever.
We talked a little longer, then hurried into our rooms at the click of heels echoing down the hallway.
"See you tomorrow!!"
"Yeah!"
Click.
The door closed. I set down my cosmetics bag and flopped onto the bed.
"Haaah... that was a long day."
Today's haul had been pretty good. I'd found the hole's location, made a new friend, and deepened a friendship. I'd also ripped out Annelise's hair in handfuls. Now I just needed Anaru's intel on that chubby guy, and to hit a hundred percent Impregnation Rate and plug the hole.
Even if I plug it, another one will probably appear...
Still, plugging it even for a day counted. And I was curious about the next effect of the Anywhere Door that would unlock after I sealed it.
I yawned as I sluggishly peeled off my clothes.
"Yaaawn... ah, right. The blocking magic."
I roughly gauged my remaining mana — about twenty percent left, it seemed. I'd fought Annelise in the morning and topped it all back up with mana breathing in the afternoon.
It's draining faster than I expected.
With that thought, I deactivated the Sensory Blocking Magic.
And then.
......♥♥♥♥!!!!!!
Everything went pitch black.
"Hooo... our Naho. The more I get to know her, the more interesting a friend she is."
Between the hot streams of water, crimson hair swayed and shimmered. A taut, lean body without an ounce of extra fat, residual muscle standing out in clean lines. Long, slender fingers glided smoothly over a precious place.
"Hoo... it's strange, really. Whenever I look at Naho, I keep..."
At her fingertips clung a liquid with a viscosity distinctly different from water. Lim Yu-ra shook her head, finished her shower, and stepped out of the bathroom.
"Ifrit."
She called the spirit's name softly. Then, with a gust of hot wind, a beautiful flame spirit appeared — the form of a fairy composed of living fire.
"Heh, if you would."
Sure.
The spirit, manifested in miniature, wrapped a warm breeze around Lim Yu-ra's body. She pleasantly smoothed moisturizer over her drying skin.
"That black object — what do you think it is?"
...I don't know. It's a substance I can't even begin to guess at.
Ifrit, the fire spirit. A lofty being with the intelligence to converse with humans, and for all the knowledge she'd accumulated over her long years of life, even she didn't know.
"It's not a slime... right?"
Of course not.
Even she thought that was a stretch. She'd wanted to just rip it right off and take it, but Naho had desperately stopped her, so there was nothing she could do.
"...Could it be related to that secret of Naho's that Arthas told me about back then?"
Highly likely. There's some kind of connection between Oh Na-ho and the Holy God.
A substance even a spirit didn't know. And Arthas, who'd brought Naho back from the Grand Cathedral in the dead of night.
Lim Yu-ra recalled that night.
"...Yaaawn, who at this hour... hello?"
"Is this Lim Yu-ra's phone? It's Arthas."
"...How did you get my number?"
"I'm class president, so I have everyone's numbers. More importantly, could you come out toward the dormitory entrance right now?"
"Out of nowhere, what..."
"It's about Oh Na-ho."
"I'll be right there."
Lim Yu-ra quickly changed clothes and went out to the dormitory entrance. Then came a message telling her to come to the park in front of the dorms, a little ways off. When she got there, she saw Arthas — and some kind of wrapped bundle in his arms.
"...What's this, at this hour? Where's Naho?"
"...Here."
Arthas held out the bundle. When she peeked inside, she found Naho sleeping soundly. Through the slipped wrapping, her naked body was visible.
"...What did you do to her?"
Lim Yu-ra asked coldly. Her fist clenched with a creak, and her body immediately answered its master's fighting spirit. Arthas shook his head.
"Naho did this herself. At the Grand Cathedral."
"...At the church? Wouldn't it be more accurate to say you seduced Naho and had your way with her?"
Arthas's face as he said this was calm. Seeing that, Lim Yu-ra relaxed a little. She could feel the immense mana binding him in place.
"Then why is our Naho in this state?"
"That's... a bit difficult to say. However, Naho went to the Grand Cathedral alone in the dead of night, and afterward ended up like this. By herself."
"...By herself? What kind of bullshit is that? Did Naho strip naked all on her own and start dancing or something?"
"..."
"...No way, right?"
"It's difficult to discuss. Hear it from Naho herself later. I'll keep silent about what I saw."
Arthas's face was a little red as he said this. Lim Yu-ra found that curious, but nodded.
"So?"
"However... there were some points that didn't sit right, if it really was something she did herself."
"You're saying someone's threatening her?"
"That's what I don't know. That's why I called you."
"Me?"
Arthas nodded and went on.
"I'll protect Naho as student council president, so I ask that you watch over her as a friend. As you know, Naho tries to keep her distance from me."
"...I'll say this now — I'm not by Naho's side just because you asked. I'm by her side because I like Naho myself."
"I know."
Saying so, Arthas handed Naho over to Lim Yu-ra. A small frame that nestled right into her arms.
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll be going."
"Wait."
"...What is it?"
"Why are you trying to help Naho?"
At Lim Yu-ra's question, Arthas slightly averted his gaze.
Having said that, Arthas vanished in an instant.
"How lame. He could at least confess like a man."
And so Lim Yu-ra secretly brought Naho back to her room. When she unwrapped the bundle, Naho's naked body was revealed, glowing faintly in the moonlight.
She swallowed.
Flawless white skin, without a single blemish. Her nipples and areolae were stained a deep cherry-blossom pink — a lustful color that would stir desire even in another woman.
After gazing at Naho's naked body for a long while, Lim Yu-ra wrinkled her nose.
"Hm? What's that smell... ah...?"
Lim Yu-ra's keen senses caught Naho's body scent. Sweet yet fishy — the smell of lust. She suppressed the excitement rising in her chest and headed to the bathroom.
"Naho, you... seriously, you can't just go passing out like this all willy-nilly."
The work of washing her friend's naked body was harder, and more enjoyable, than expected. The soft skin was satisfying to touch. And whenever her fingers accidentally grazed her friend's precious place, goosebumps ran up her fingertips.
"Haa... this is really weird, why is it that whenever I look at Naho I keep..."
I like men. I know I do.
Lim Yu-ra cooled her flushing cheeks as she wiped down Naho's body.
"Nngh... hah..."
She swallowed again. Naho, perhaps too sensitive, was letting out heated breaths even in her sleep. Lim Yu-ra, as if bewitched, caressed Naho's lips — then snapped back to her senses.
"...Sorry, Naho. I'll get you to your room right away."
Having finished the series of tasks, Lim Yu-ra returned to her own room. For some reason, she spent the night sleepless, her emotions running high.
