Reunion! #6
"Seriously? It just fell off, you bastard?"
I hadn't expected it to come off this easily, no matter how much I'd hoped. I was so flustered I could barely find the words.
First, I inspected the horn I was holding.
"This... it was solid before, right?"
My horns had always been hard. They had the texture of animal horn; it wasn't something you could just snap off with your bare hands. But the horn currently in my grip was dry, brittle, and cracked, much like parched earth during a drought.
"Is it because I drained the mana?"
That was the only explanation for this change. To sum it up, by aggressively pulling the mana stored within the horn, I had caused it to flake off like dead skin.
"How's my health?"
I checked my physical condition.
"Ah."
My mana was slightly depleted, and it was still leaking out in tiny amounts. A sort of 'mana hemorrhage.' It felt like it was seeping out from the cross-section where the horn had been.
"Heal."
I immediately placed my hand over the stump and cast Heal to mend it.
Wait, what is this texture?
Am I Hellboy now? I suppose it’s better than being a red-skinned devil walking around with two half-cut slices of ham on my forehead, but because the horn had fallen off, the area felt slightly bumpy.
I didn't like it much. But if I could detach the horns like this, I could easily cover the stumps with my hair.
"Good."
Once I healed the stump, the mana leakage stopped.
"Wait, wasn't this supposed to be a big deal for demons? Is it really okay for them to fall off this easily?"
Am I special? Or did I just perform the procedure well? As far as I knew, demons considered their horns a point of pride. And a demon who could detach their own horns? I’d never even heard of such a thing.
Horns... now that I’d lost them, I realized they were necessary for a demon. They could store a bit of mana, and they looked cool. But they weren't exactly essential for me.
Still, since they represented a demon's authority, I figured I should maintain a reasonable size. They would grow back eventually. Monsters seemed to like horns; looking strong was synonymous with authority. Anyway, this much should be enough to disguise Vanessa as a human.
"Alright."
To test it once more, I grabbed the other horn and pulled the mana out of it again.
—Snap.
As expected, the horn fell off.
Perfect. Whenever I need to be hornless in the future, I can just detach them like this. If my women lose their horns? That would be incredibly useful for deceiving enemies in various ways.
"Heh heh heh, I didn't expect to find a solution this quickly."
I was lucky.
I should send Vanessa out as a spy immediately.
Time for the reward.
Night fell, and I called Vanessa into my room. I felt bad for Sharan and Lumika, but Vanessa needed her reward today. We slept together every night anyway, so they could let it slide for once. They had both left with their cheeks puffed out in a pout, but I’d comfort them tomorrow.
Anyway.
—Creak.
Vanessa opened the door and stepped inside.
"Oh. Vanessa."
"Kuh...!"
Vanessa was in her lingerie. Her face was bright red. She looked hesitant, glancing at me as if she were shy.
Since it was our first time sleeping together, she seemed very nervous.
That aside... her figure was truly sexy. Her breasts, overflowing with maternal warmth, her healthy physique, and her slender waist. Add to that her wide hips and buttocks. It was a female body that made it hard to suppress my sexual urges.
"Wait! But you! Your horns!"
"I'll explain that later. You look beautiful, Vanessa."
"Ugh!"
I called out to her, and she was startled by the compliment.
"Anyway, come closer. I want to hold you right now. Isn't today the day of your reward? I'll pamper you properly, so just leave your body to me."
"Re-reward, my foot! Isn't this the time for humiliation! You're going to violate my womanhood all night long with obscene sex torture...!"
"You could call it that."
"Auuu...!"
Eventually, a blushing Vanessa slowly approached the bed. I shifted to the side to make room for her.
"Here. Come and lie down next to me."
"E-even if you act so tender...! My heart won't change!"
"Yes, yes."
As if it hadn't changed already.
—Slide.
Vanessa immediately lay down beside me. She was trembling with tension. This beautiful knight was weak to such things. Because she had an inner desire to be loved, she had no resistance to this.
"Haa... Vanessa."
"Haa!"
I pulled the Vanessa lying beside me into an embrace, breathed in the scent of her skin, and whispered her name.
"Ughhh...!"
Vanessa was shy. I kissed her face and stroked her hair.
"W-wait!"
"Stay still."
—Smooch.
I kissed her forehead, her cheeks, and the nape of her neck while gently stroking her hair. As I did, I spoke as if brainwashing her.
"Your scent is so wonderful."
"..."
"And you are so beautiful. So beautiful that I want to devour you every time I see you."
"D-devour... such vulgar words..."
Look at that. She calmed down in an instant. Vanessa's heartbeat accelerated. The knight had completely melted from just a little hugging and touching on the bed.
"Vulgar? It's only natural. Besides, this is your fault, Vanessa."
"What fault did I commit..."
"Your sexy body is what makes me so excited. You go around seducing me with your pretty face and beautiful figure. It makes me want to touch you all day long and rub my cock against you."
"N-n-n-nonsense...!"
When I sucked on her ear, Vanessa let out words she didn't mean, clearly enjoying it too much. I whispered into her ear.
"Nonsense? You are that attractive of a woman, Vanessa. So much so that I want to possess you for the rest of my life without ever letting you go."
"Kuh...!"
"I love you, Vanessa."
"L-liar!"
It wasn't a lie.
"E-even if you whisper false love... it doesn't make me happy at all!"
Vanessa shouted that, eyes squeezed shut, trying to suppress her moans. Can't be helped. The moment I sneakily poked at Vanessa's slit.
—Squish♥
"Unghhhhhh♥♥♥"
Vanessa's waist arched, and her head snapped back. To make matters worse, Vanessa pursed her lips into an 'O' shape and moaned. To react like this from just one poke... this is why I can't quit this.
"It's not a lie, Vanessa."
—Squish, squish, squish♥
As I poked at this sexy knight's slit with my finger, I kissed her pursed lips.
"Umm♥ Ughhh-umm♥"
Throughout the kiss, Vanessa held me tightly and trembled all over. This woman is weak to kisses. Anyway, I enjoyed the kiss with Vanessa while mercilessly poking at her slit with my finger.
And then.
—Splurt!
Vanessa climaxed, spraying a massive amount of nectar.
"Ahh♥ Ohh♥ Unghhhhh♥"
Climaxing with her back pressed against the bed and her hips thrust upward. Truly adorable.
"Vanessa. This is what you call demon-style love. My desire to possess you, even if I have to break you to do it. Don't you understand? I want to make you climax countless times like this, touch your body, feel you, and share love with you."
"Hnnnghh♥"
"To think you don't know that heart of mine... honestly, it hurts."
Words whispered into the ear of the climaxing Vanessa. This is Culls-lighting. I continued to attempt Culls-lighting on her as she climaxed.
"Haa...♥"
Finally, Vanessa, having finished her climax, let the strength drain from her entire body and spoke.
"Is... is love just making me, a knight, your sex slave... dirtying my womanhood with your semen to your heart's content, and using me as you please..."
"Don't say such bad things. You know that's not it, right?"
"What do you mean it's not—"
I immediately kissed Vanessa on the forehead.
—Smooch.
"Haaah?!"
She's a woman very weak to such displays of affection. Her face turned red instantly, and her dazed expression was a masterpiece.
"Would I do this if I didn't love you, Vanessa? I love you, so I cherish you."
"E-e-e-even so, you're planning to bring in new women every single day!"
"That's for my growth. What can I do? Still, it's the truth that I love you, Vanessa."
"Kuh...! This man is only good at smooth talk!"
"Not at all. Now that I've spoken my heart, I want to hear yours."
"I, I...!"
While waiting for her answer, I pulled Vanessa into an embrace.
"...!"
"Go on."
"I, I...! I...!"
"You?"
"I've decided to follow you! Isn't that enough! That is my heart!"
"Hmm... I wanted to hear you say you love me. Well, fine. I'll hear that next time. Vanessa. How do you plan to handle the espionage?"
"That is."
Vanessa, now wearing the face of a knight, pondered for a moment before speaking.
"It seems you've become capable of removing your horns. If so, a disguise is easy. I just need to change my hairstyle, dye my hair, and wear a hood. I've lived as a knight in this region. Gathering information is simple."
Her tone was confident.
"The information was that the Saintess is fleeing this way. If so, I just need to go around the surrounding villages. I can gather at least that much information. But the important thing is that contact will be difficult."
"Can't you lure her this way somehow?"
"Lure, you say."
"For instance, the fleeing Saintess... it would be a small group, I assume. If she changes direction, I'll secretly go to a nearby village and subtly appeal to her. That someone is here."
"It's not as easy as it sounds. I can gather information well, but luring a specific person somewhere is difficult."
That's true.
"Besides, the Saintess is currently being tracked by angels and the angel faction that follows them. She's in a situation where she has to run away to survive, so naturally, she's bound to be suspicious."
"As expected of Vanessa. You're smart."
"It's basic, just basic!"
As expected of a former knight, she knows these things well. Anyway, it was decided that I would send Vanessa. She's so reliable.
As we were doing that.
"The horns... if they disappear."
Vanessa brought it up.
"Do they grow back?"
"Yes? Of course they do."
Naturally, they grow back.
"Is that so..."
"Hm?"
But for some reason, she looked relieved.
Why is she relieved?
Huh?
Don't tell me?
"Vanessa?"
"What is it?"
"Don't tell me you don't want the horns to disappear?"
"What?! Who said that!"
Her face flushed.
"Ah, I see. These horns are proof that you are my property. You think it's a bit lonely for them to disappear—"
"Nonsense!!!! Cut it out!!!!"
Vanessa, her face as red as magma, shouted loudly. It seemed I had hit the nail on the head, so I poked her slit again.
—Squish♥
"Unghhhhhh♥"
An obscene moan.
"P-poking my slit whenever you're at a disadvantageeeet♥ Stop♥ Ohhhhh♥"
"Then let's have some sex. I'll do the work of removing the horns."
I'll have to work on sending Vanessa to the human realm when I wake up tomorrow.
