Small Misunderstanding

"Young Master Reinhardt·····?"

Lady Ehiton said, looking at Jerad in the hallway. Jerad then subtly approached, starting to shield my face and body.

'Ah, what a relief·····.'

But it was still too early to feel relieved.

My body was still weakly relying on Jerad's arm, and even now, if I slipped just a little, I would collapse onto the floor.

To avoid being caught by Lady Ehiton, I hunched my body as much as possible and hid behind him.

"He took Lunia to the infirmary, but he himself is here with another woman·····"

Lady Ehiton scolded Jerad, then observed the situation, wondering what on earth he was doing in a place like this·····

"Wh-what! In a sacred school that fosters learning and camaraderie, and in a public place where students pass by, doing such vulgar things·····!"

It seemed she had seen my arousal fluid scattered on the floor, as Lady Ehiton's voice was tinged with shame and urgency.

But Jerad, with his scoundrel-like disposition, couldn't just stand there and take Lady Ehiton's abusive language, so he immediately cut her off and retorted.

"Ah, it's because this woman here is desperate for ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠me."

If anyone else heard Jerad's words, they might interpret it as him being so great, overflowing with charm to the point that women are desperate for him—

But to me, who knew the whole situation, I felt he was implying that I was such a lewd and sexy woman that I had begged him for it. 

Still, I held onto a small hope that I was just being paranoid···

"This woman here is begging to go, so what man could resist that?"

"·····Ugh!"

I trembled with shame.

It was clearly meant to insult Lady Ehiton, while forcibly reminding me of what had just happened.

Lady Ehiton seemed to feel that Jerad was sexually harassing her and contradicting her words, so she began to get angry, turning the tables on him.

"Y-you're still rude, Young Master Reinhardt! As for that woman of yours, what on earth do you like about Young Master Reinhardt·····! You, who make such requests in a public place, are vulgar too!"

'U-ugh·····.'

Lady Ehiton's words didn't pierce my heart like a dagger. It was all true, after all. 

It was just the feeling that if someone I had never met saw me, they would have such an impression, and no matter how much I tried to rationalize it, I would ultimately appear vulgar.

Was it a good thing, if there was any good thing at all? My appearance was still completely hidden by Jerad, and Lady Ehiton seemed unable to even guess who I was.

"Tsk! I'm going to go see Lunia!"

With that, Lady Ehiton turned her head and left the hallway, as if she had seen something filthy.

Then, as if by magic, strength slowly began to return to my body.

"H-huh·····! Jerad, you crazy bastard·····!"

I pulled Jerad's hand away and tried to shout at him, but my words were immediately cut off by his silencing.

And my momentum, which had been creating a fierce atmosphere—

"Shut up, unless you want to have sex right here, in this state."

"·····Ugh."

I crumbled too easily to what was merely an empty threat.

Jerad wouldn't truly rape me here, not with his reputation and rumors at stake, but even so, I couldn't resist at all.

If I had to be precise, the one with more to lose was myself, more than anyone else.

"Of course, don't worry, Lunia. If you want it, I'll fuck you anytime."

"·····That will never ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠happen."

I firmly ignored Jerad, but honestly, I wasn't sure how long this resolve of mine would last.

Even today, when Jerad stopped his hand right before my climax, I had shamelessly said lewd things, just as he had predicted.

##

"Lunia?"

"Y-yes, y-yes·····."

It was Lady Ehiton, looking down at me with a slightly, just a very slight, angry expression.

Lady Ehiton seemed a little annoyed with me, but conversely, wouldn't that mean our relationship had progressed a little?

I wasn't sure what relationships between women were like, but it was a sign that we trusted each other.

"Hehe."

I was a little happy.

Honestly, ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠I had only ever had one friend, Mari.

That meant that since coming to the Magic Academy, I hadn't made a single friend among the many fellow students.

"I'm angry right now, Lunia."

Lady Ehiton replied in a slightly cold voice, but I didn't care.

Because the very fact that there was someone who would get angry at me like this made me happy.

So, if you were to ask why Lady Ehiton was angry with me·····

"You're really okay now, right?"

"Y-yes·····."

When Jerad touched my pussy during the lecture. That is, after Jerad said he would take me to the infirmary.

If Jerad hadn't shielded me, Lady Ehiton would surely have seen me.

Until then, I thought I had hidden it well. But Lady Ehiton had immediately ignored us and rushed to the infirmary as soon as class ended to meet me.

However, upon arriving at the infirmary, I, who should have been resting, had never even visited the infirmary in the first place, and my whereabouts were completely unknown.

Lady Ehiton, worried that something bad might have happened to me, had apparently started searching for me all over the school.

Yet, the student behind Jerad, whom Lady Ehiton had ignored and passed by at that time, was me·····.

The next day, the excuse I managed to squeeze out was that I had rested in the dormitory all day.

And so, Lady Ehiton, who had received no news, was scolding me.

"Hurry up and go to class. You're not going to say you're late again today because you had something to do, are you?"

"Ugh."

My conscience pricked me a little.

Despite being a commoner, I had done something terrible to ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠someone who treated me so unreservedly and worried about me.

"I'll probably be fine for a while··········probably?"

Honestly, I couldn't be sure that I wouldn't be late again in the future. 

As I watched Lady Ehiton grumbling, asking what kind of answer that was, I sat down in a seat at the side of the classroom for a moment·····

-Drrrk.

Suddenly, the chair next to me scraped the floor.

"Young Master Reinhardt··········."

From the opposite side, Lady Ehiton's groan was heard. And along with it, reproachful words.

"Yesterday, you clearly said you'd take Lunia to the infirmary."

Jerad had definitely said something like that··········

"Young Master Reinhardt, who abandoned Lunia somewhere and harassed other women, are you so tactless?"

Huh? Th-that sounds like a flag··········

"Kuku, I apologize for this, Lady Ehiton."

Jerad, with a wry smile, perhaps a little offended—

-Swish.

"H-hick?!"

Just like yesterday, without any hesitation or a moment's thought, he slipped his hand under my skirt.

And accurately sensing the area where my clitoris was, he tapped it, and replied.

"Still, I received Lunia's permission to sit next to her, so don't worry too much about it, Lady Ehiton."

Even I, including Master, understood the language of nobles to some extent, having observed them at the Magic Academy.

So, the hidden meaning of what Jerad had just said was, no matter how much he goes around harassing women, Lunia wouldn't care, so don't interfere between us.

And Lady Ehiton, perhaps having caught on to that hidden meaning, looked at me with an incredulous expression and asked.

"Is that true, Lunia?"

No. That can't be true!

"N-no·····H-hit?!"

But Jerad, perhaps wanting to hear a specific answer, pinched my clitoris before I could say no, making me shut up.

"Lunia?"

Perhaps finding it suspicious that I had cut off my words midway, she asked again with a questioning look, but·····

"Ugh···, Y-yes, I did give permission·····."

Thump.

As if she never imagined I would actually give permission, Lady Ehiton's expression was quite shocked.

In response to that, Jerad gently stroked my pubic mound, as if to say 'well done'.

'Ugh, again, again·····.'

Believe it or not, today I truly had no intention of doing anything lewd, nor did I feel like it.

But this feeling was all too familiar.

To be precise, among the feelings I experienced yesterday, I felt as if my body was heating up on its own just from a man's touch.

Was my body really this lewd originally? I started to have such a misconception.

Honestly, it might be that I suddenly became a woman's body and hadn't adapted to female sensitivity, or this body itself, which isn't 'mine' originally, might be too sensitive to sexual stimulation.

Whatever it was, what mattered was now.

Because desperately suppressing my voice and holding back climax again was such an arduous task.

But truthfully, despite saying this, there was no other real solution. At most, only one method came to mind right now.

However, it wasn't a normal method, and it was a method that could expose me with just one small mistake.

'Still, wouldn't it be better than just enduring it and stimulating Jerad·····.'

It was half a gamble, really.
