Episode 79
The merchant leader spoke while checking the paper where the conditions were written down.
"We'll only go together as far as the city right in front of the Blue Forest, and in exchange for providing separate accommodation and a tent, no additional money is needed. Is that correct?"
"Yes, please do it that way."
"Understood. We'll be departing soon, so please get into a cargo compartment you're comfortable with and rest. If space is insufficient, you can call an employee to move to another cargo compartment."
"Yes, understood."
When I lightly nodded and returned, Aron was staring intently at me.
"What? Why are you staring like that?"
"Just because you're cute."
My face grew hot at his declaration of cuteness.
"W-what kind of nonsense is that all of a sudden! You're just trying to tease me again!"
"No. You always say you're the cutest girl and tell me to be happy about it, but when I say it, you get embarrassed. More importantly, did it go well? Your expression seems fine."
"Yeah, of course we're getting accommodation provided, and we also arranged to use a tent separately just for us. Though I'm a bit dissatisfied, Kyla will have to share it with us."
As I grumbled and waited for Kyla's reaction, I finally realized it.
The girl who had been clinging to Aron was nowhere to be seen.
"Where did Kyla go? They said we're departing soon."
"She said she needed to buy something quickly and would be right back."
"Something she needed? Like clothes? I checked everything when we left home..."
"No. She said it's something she personally needs, so let's go in first."
Aron gently pushed me as we moved toward the cargo compartment ahead.
I leaned back into his embrace-like position from behind.
"Mia, haven't things been too quiet lately? It feels like there used to be something happening every day."
"Quiet is good."
"That's true. But it's just so peaceful that it feels like something big is going to happen later."
"...Really? Well, I guess that could happen."
Honestly, I don't know.
What I know is only the timeline that flows exactly according to Black Nightmare's scenario.
I don't know about a timeline like now where all sorts of variables have occurred.
"Why did you suddenly lose confidence? You usually talk like you know all the information."
"There are too many variables. Actually, just being with you like this is a variable."
"It can't be helped. If we hadn't met, you would already be dead, right?"
"That... is true."
Since it's true that I survived thanks to Aron, I don't particularly have any resentful feelings.
"At least tell me what you do know. I need to know what might happen so I can help comfortably too."
"Hmm... The Cult of the End will soon run rampant throughout the continent."
"Didn't their core plan already fail?"
"Not the core... exactly. We just became able to receive help from the dragonkin. Though I don't know if the Dragon Emperor-nim will help as I know."
In the game, since Aron isn't there, after helping, they receive the Dragon Emperor's assistance as a reward.
But actually, if Aron is here, it might be fine even without it.
"She'll probably help. Nobody values the balance of this continent more than dragons."
"Then that's fortunate."
When I hopped into the cargo compartment, Aron followed me up.
After pushing the luggage aside appropriately, there was enough space for three people to sit comfortably.
"Hup."
After settling into my spot and sitting down, Aron also sat beside me.
I immediately climbed onto his lap and settled in as if being embraced in his arms.
"If you were going to do this, you should have told me to sit first."
"When I sat down, it felt hard. That's why I climbed up."
The familiar Aron smoothly pulled my body close and held me tightly.
As I closed my eyes while being held in his embrace, Aron whispered near my ear.
"Mia, don't you have any fetishes? It always seems like you're just pinned under me and getting fucked blindly. If you have something you want, I'll play along too."
Fetishes?
Startled by the sudden question, I looked at Aron with a jolt.
My face felt hot and my lips twitched.
"W-what kind of perverted talk is that! I don't have anything like that!"
"Really? That's disappointing. I wanted to try various things."
"..."
As soon as I saw Aron's expression, the worst scenario came to mind.
Unlike me who refused, Kyla would accept.
Then instead of me who can't play along with Aron's desires, he would spend nights with Kyla.
'Th-that can't happen...'
Even if I have to leave at the end of this journey, I want him to look only at me while we're together.
Clenching my fist, I asked Aron.
"You, you... what fe...fetishes do you have?"
"Hmm, I want to train my woman to my taste. Usually acting like friends, but the moment I demand it, she becomes a panting female."
My body reacted to the word "training."
The memory of my first meeting with Aron, reaching climax until my head spun just from his fingers, becoming a woman for the first time.
Even though considerable time had passed, that sensation was vivid.
'Then would I really... become able to feel it from just a touch? But after doing even that, if I get discarded, could I endure it?'
I'm both excited and afraid.
Deep in my heart, I desire perfect submission and happiness as a female.
At the same time, a part of me worries about being discarded afterward and holds me back.
"You want to train me like that?"
When I asked cautiously, Aron affirmed.
"Of course. I haven't trained the other girls to that extent yet. I've given them some education, but. You're the first I've genuinely wanted to do this with."
"...How long can you wait?"
"I can wait until you give me an answer. If you say no, I'll absolutely not do it."
There's not much time left in my estimation.
It ends when the hero's party defeats the Demon King, or when we eliminate the Cult of the End and obtain the sacred artifact.
Whether the curse weakens because the Demon King dies, or we remove all effects with the sacred artifact.
'I need to decide after seeing Aron's reaction at that time.'
If he shows a very negative reaction then, I'll immediately flee to the Dragon Emperor.
I gently rub my cheek against Aron's cheek.
"When all this is over, I'll give you my answer then. Can you wait until then?"
"Of course. Will this also disappear by then?"
Aron gently strokes my lower abdomen.
As if responding to him, the pregnancy prevention magic glowed faintly, visible even through my clothes.
"Yeah, I think this will be gone by then too."
Even though I've completely surrendered to Aron's penis, there's only one reason this magic hasn't disappeared.
The fear that if he finds out I'm a man, I might be discarded.
That fear is blocking it.
That's the conclusion I reached after being fucked by Aron's penis dozens of times and being loved.
"Then I just need to wait until then. At that time, we might be able to have our child in here."
"A child, what...! Let's think about that when the time comes."
I've never seriously thought about me getting pregnant and giving birth to a child.
Partly due to having been a man, and partly thanks to the pregnancy prevention magic.
I deliberately avoided Aron's gaze.
"What's this? What are you two talking about? You're not sitting there with him inside you, are you?"
Kyla entered the cargo compartment carrying a bag in one hand.
Who knows what's in her head - as soon as she saw us sitting normally as usual, she thought of insertion.
"That couldn't be. I'm just being held in his embrace."
"Really? If it were me, I would have filled my sacred womb with Aron's fresh semen all day long while inserted."
"Ugh... what is this pervert saintess saying."
The longer I spend time with Kyla, the more I understand why Eri and Seoryeong unni avoided her.
Her obsession is one thing, but she's so otherworldly that it's hard to react.
'Always saying perverted things...'
I want to do it too.
I want my neck to be grabbed by Aron's large hands and used roughly like an onahole.
I want my inside to be filled with Aron until only Aron remains.
Yet I just endure and stay put.
"More importantly, what did you buy that you needed? We brought everything we needed from home."
When I showed interest in the bag she brought, Kyla happily rummaged through it.
Then she took out a collar from the bag and approached.
"Can't you put a collar on me too and treat me like an animal? You did it well for the fox in the past. I want to be used like that too."
She placed the collar in Aron's hand and slightly lifted her hair.
I had to stare blankly at that sight.
"...Are you seriously asking for this?"
"Of course. I asked you in the past too. Not to just do it for the fox, but to do it for me too."
"Well, I guess you wouldn't lie."
Aron's hand slowly reached toward Kyla.
If this continues, I'll lose him.
Before I could finish that thought, my hand moved first.
"No!"
I grabbed Aron's arm with both hands and shook my head vigorously.
"You promised to wait! You just made a promise and already thinking about training another woman?!"
When I shouted almost like a scream, Kyla opened her eyes wide and stared.
Aron also seemed flustered, and silence fell for a moment.
"Mia, I was just going to give it back. I just made that promise, so I wouldn't do it with another woman."
"What's this? Did you two make some strange promise while I was gone?"
"I promised that training priority number one is Mia."
At Aron's answer, Kyla crossed her arms and glared.
"We met you first, how does that make sense? Shouldn't you train us first?"
"Kyla. Please. Just wait a little longer."
Aron's voice was serious.
Not a hint of his usual playfulness was visible.
"...That's cheating. Asking so seriously like that."
Kyla said with a voice full of dissatisfaction, then picked up her bag and poured its contents on the floor in front of me.
Collar, rope, dildo, gag, blindfold.
Tools I never imagined were spread out before me.
"You use them all. I'm specially conceding because I'm disappointed. Get pregnant quickly and return Aron to me."
"Why would I use these things! I won't use them!"
"Once you taste it, you'll want to use them every time! The feeling of being thoroughly trained by Aron is truly the best."
I became even more embarrassed because Kyla spoke so casually as if it were a matter of course.
With my face completely flushed, I looked at Aron.
"You won't use them, right? I've never used things like that so it's a bit... uncomfortable..."
He chuckled as if finding me cute, then Aron lightly kissed my forehead.
"Of course. How could I do it if Mia doesn't want it? Honestly, I want to do it even now."
I could actually feel his hot pillar against my buttocks.
His slightly aroused state was distinctly touching my skin.
"It's prohibited for a while. We've been doing it too often..."
I was about to say I feel like I might break, but hesitated for a moment.
"I mean it's physically difficult. Let's assess the situation once we arrive at the Blue Forest later."
"Okay, if you say so, I can't help it."
In Aron's tight embrace, I fell into thought.
I'm becoming too emotional lately.
Not controlled at all.
For now, I should just wish for everything to end as quickly as possible.
