Ep.4 - Don't Come In...!
***
A witch search?
What the...?
"W-wait a moment!"
Delin frantically gathered his clothes and struggled to put them on.
His body was drenched in sweat after their intense physical union, so the clothes wouldn't go on properly.
But the stern voice outside—sounding as if it might break the door down—kept urging him on, so he had no choice but to hurry.
"Open up, now!"
No matter how much it's an order from the high and mighty, did they really have to come barging into the inn and make a scene demanding the door be opened like this...?
To Delin, who had been a modern person just a few months ago, a society that still had a class system of masters was a difficult place to grasp.
"I-I'm opening it..."
But a far bigger problem than the cultural difference was that
Chichi, currently sprawled out on the bed and completely unconscious, was a witch!
'What do I do? At this rate...'
After forcing his clothes on, Delin shook Chichi this way and that to wake her.
"Chichi noona...! Wake up! Some people came and they're searching for witches...!"
He had no idea why a sudden search was happening out of nowhere,
but one thing was certain: he had to hide Chichi.
Because the voices coming from outside the door weren't just voices trying to identify witches,
they were voices intent on rooting them out like lice and capturing every last one...!
"Ehehe..."
But unfortunately, Chichi couldn't come to her senses, merely breathing in soft wheezes.
Her mind did not return.
The intense, incredible sex had sent her into countless climaxes, utterly wrecking her.
'I'm fucked...'
Delin broke out in a cold sweat and gulped.
If those people took Chichi away, there would be no way to stop Neva or Philmark...
"Noona...! Please, just...!"
He smacked her butt and shook her body this way and that...
Chichi wouldn't wake up.
Lost in the afterglow of sweet sex, she just lay there stupidly, face-down, a faint, blissful smile on her lips.
"Open up! This isn't working. Everyone, stand back."
Stand back?
Isn't that the line they say right before they kick the door in and force their way in!
"W-wait! I'll really open it! Don't break it...!"
"I'm counting to five. Open it!"
Delin pulled his pants back up and scrambled to the door, turning the handle.
The moment he turned it, a female knight's hand thrust in through the gap,
roughly yanked the door open, and strode inside.
"Hngh..."
The reactions of the women who entered the room were quite honest;
all three of them wrinkled their faces and clicked their tongues at the scent of the lovemaking that had been so thick just moments before.
"..."
Naturally, the knights' gazes turned to Delin.
One woman face-down on the bed, one man drenched in sweat and hastily dressing...
The knights rummaged through the room as if they didn't care, while stealing glances at Delin.
The clothes clinging to his wet body, the face breathing out heated breaths...
all of it was simply a lewd sight that stirred women's instincts.
"No one hiding in here."
"Good. Then we'll just check that woman and be on our way."
The female knights subtly swept their eyes over Delin as they pressed something against Chichi.
'What is that...?'
Anxiously watching the tool that looked like a long syringe, Delin grew worried that the knights would realize Chichi was a witch and hurriedly tried to stop them.
"W-wait! She's not a witch!"
But would the word of a single man make them half-ass their lord's orders?
The female knight who appeared to be the leader grabbed Delin's wrist tightly as he lunged at her subordinates, preventing him from daring to interfere with their duties.
"Whether she's a witch or not is for us to confirm. Stay still, or you will be punished for obstruction."
"I-I'm telling you she's not! Nngh...!"
I can't Load after coming this far...!
After all that hard work pounding away!
Things were finally going my way!!
...Such were the thoughts in his heart, but no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't overcome a trained female knight.
Even a knight weaker than Neva could easily suppress someone with Delin's measly strength.
"What are you doing?"
The female knight pulled his wrist up high above his head,
grabbing both of Delin's hands in one of hers and pinning him against the wall.
"Aghk...!"
A pained moan escaped him involuntarily from the rough handling.
Pinned against the wall with both arms restrained, Delin had no means left to resist.
He didn't know what rough things he might suffer if he kept fighting...
Yet, even so, Delin flailed and thrashed in mid-air, desperately trying to protect Chichi.
"Stop it! I said stop!"
Did Delin even realize that a lewd scent wafted from his own body every time he shook like that?
The eyes of the female knight holding him right in front of her wavered.
She was greatly stimulated by Delin, who was unconsciously radiating sex appeal.
"...Hoh. Look at this one."
The clothes slipping down because he'd just thrown them on,
the body that was burning hot just moments ago,
even the frightened expression as he struggled...
"She must be your lover, right? How pitiful. She must be passed out like that because you couldn't satisfy her properly."
The female knight glanced at Chichi and smirked.
Delin already knew the meaning of that smile all too well.
Countless women had tormented him with that exact expression...
"W-wait...! Don't touch my body. I swear I won't let you get away with it if you touch me...!"
"What are you talking about? I'm just conducting a body search. If you resist, you'll be defying the royal decree and face quite severe punishment... so just stay quiet, won't you?"
"Nngh...!"
The female knight, having stripped off her gloves, began groping Delin's body.
Going beyond a simple body search, her touch kneaded him lewdly for her own satisfaction, making Delin writhe and twist in resistance.
"I-I hate this...!"
But the sexual harassment disguised as a body search was brief.
"Th-this woman! She's a witch!"
The cries of the two subordinates turned the female knight's attention from Delin back to Chichi.
"What? A witch?"
The female knight even let go of Delin's hands, which she had been holding tight, and strode over to the bed to look down at Chichi.
Was it the effect of the tool they had brought?
Chichi's limp body was now somehow clad in the witch's combat outfit she always wore.
"What. It's real? Take her away, now!"
Take her away?
'No...!'
Delin scrambled over and clung to the female knight's knees. He couldn't let Chichi be taken like this.
"W-wait a moment. Please... what on earth is going on that you're taking her? Huh? N-not all witches are bad!"
"That doesn't matter. Hold this man down."
"What's going on! Taking her away like this without any explanation is too much!"
Delin screamed and tried to hold on even as he was dragged by the two subordinates...
Well, there was no way he could hold on.
Still, the subordinates [absolutely not intentionally, but purely by accident] groped Delin's incredibly tantalizing body here and there while secretly informing him of the reason they were hauling witches away.
"Stay still, will you. Don't you know there's chaos out there? Were you so out of your mind wrapped up with that bitch that you didn't notice?"
"What do you mean? Huh...? Chaos? No, and stop groping me! What are you... hngh..."
"Finishing the body search. Stay still. All the witches have gone completely insane and are pouring out into the world right now! If left alone, they'll cause trouble, so we're detaining them for now."
"Pouring... ngh... out...?"
Being touched felt incredibly unpleasant, but since he could get information, Delin forced himself to endure.
"Yeah. From what I hear... the place where those bitches lived together has been turned into a complete warzone or something?"
Fuck.
It's Neva and Philmark...!
They went to Raftel and trashed the whole place...!
"B-but still... she's my girlfriend... right? Please, can't you just let her go this one time...? Nnngh..."
Delin now practically offered up his own body as he begged the knights, going so far as to lie that Chichi was his girlfriend.
That tearful gaze and those trembling legs drove the knights absolutely crazy...
"Fuuuck... if it weren't for the mission, I'd just..."
Yet even so, while they satisfied their own urges by groping Delin's body, they did not completely cross the line.
"That's enough, stop it and let him go. We've caught the witch, so we're returning immediately."
The female knights soon hoisted Chichi up and strode leisurely out of the room, leaving Delin discarded.
"Haa... fucking hell..."
Still feeling the crude sensation of being groped all over, Delin slumped to the floor and clutched his head.
The fact that Neva and Philmark had raised hell in Raftel
essentially meant they'd realize he wasn't there and come charging back to catch him.
And in this dangerous situation, Chichi was gone!
But if he Loaded, Neva and Philmark, who had already wrecked Raftel to shit, would hunt him down even more fiercely,
and since Chichi and Kaede couldn't follow the Load, they'd argue for a long time again and waste time...
No. He might not even be able to meet Kaede at all.
...Wait.
Right, Kaede-ssi!
He still had a hidden weapon in Kaede!
'That's right...! Kaede-ssi is an S-rank Adventurer, so surely other people will listen to her. If I ask Kaede-ssi to rescue Chichi, and we get help from other adventurers or knights...!'
It wasn't a completely hopeless situation yet.
It could definitely be resolved!
"Kaede-ssi...!"
Delin immediately dashed out toward the next room.
"Kaede-ssi! We have a huge problem!"
But why?
As if trying to stop him from rushing in, Kaede screamed.
"Nooo! Don't open it...!"
At that desperate voice, Delin found himself stopping dead in front of the door without realizing it.
He didn't know what was going on, but Kaede's voice was incredibly urgent and frantic.
However, Delin was just as urgent and frantic. He had to rescue Chichi, and fast.
"Kaede-ssi, it's urgent! We have to hurry... we have to go. Chichi noona got taken away...!"
Delin's insides were burning at Kaede's inexplicable behavior. He had to chase after the knights who took Chichi as soon as possible...!
Just as his anxious heart made him put his hand on the handle, Kaede screamed again, as if in agony.
"Nooo... please... don't come in...!"
"Kaede-ssi...! Why are you doing this, huh? We don't have time for this...!"
A strange scent began to seep out from inside the door.
Delin didn't consciously recognize the scent, but his nose was already flaring and reacting to the fragrance.
"Don't open it... please... just run away..."
Hearing that desperately earnest voice, Delin couldn't bring himself to open the door...
But in the end, he placed his hand on the doorknob and shouted one last time.
"Then come out quickly, please...! I'm telling you, we don't have time for this!"
"No... kkiing... don't come in..."
Ultimately, he turned the doorknob.
The anxiety that something terrible would definitely happen if he delayed any longer moved his hand.
"Ugh..! What the..??"
But the moment he opened the door, what hit him was an extremely thick, peculiar scent.
Not an unpleasant scent, but a strange one that felt like something bad would happen if he kept inhaling it...
So oppressively dense that he reflexively covered his nose, the smell whooshed out through the opened door.
"Kaede-ssi? Kaede-ssi...!"
By now, Delin was starting to worry that Kaede might be in some kind of trouble because of the knights.
Because he couldn't afford to lose Kaede too, he pushed through the thick smell and sticky air to enter the room...
