Clouds and Rain (4)
It was the moment just after we had crushed Yuan Shu, right before our entry into Shuchun. I drew a single pill from where it had been tucked away in my breast and turned it over in my hand, examining it.
"From what I hear, you're the one who made this?"
"Yes, that is correct."
Some time ago, after receiving a certain gift from my mother, I had paid a visit to the Divine Physician with a question on my lips.
"She told me that with so many women wanting her son, she needed a medicine to keep him from being outdone — so she asked me to brew something beneficial for a man."
"..."
"I blended it from restorative tonics — horny goat weed, goji berries, cistanche."
The woman with the pale blue eyes, her white hair pinned up neatly with a hairpin, regarded me with an air of profound mystery.
"Factoring in the General-in-Chief's constitution, I found no issues whatsoever. Aside from one minor side effect — a somewhat sharpened appetite for the flesh — you may take it without concern."
Nothing about the way she said it sounded the least bit mysterious.
"...?"
When I could only stare back in bewilderment, Hua Tuo merely tilted her head a fraction, her expression as flat as ever.
"If you doubt its efficacy, shall we put it to the test?"
"That's not—"
"Do not worry. Though I lack personal experience, I am quite well-versed in the human body, so—"
"I'll be going now."
I cut her off mid-sentence and fled the building as though my life depended on it.
In any case, a medicine brewed by the Divine Physician herself could hardly have any serious flaws. Its performance would no doubt be exceptional.
But with that side effect — a heightened libido — making me hesitate to actually take the thing, my mind drifted back to the look Seo Yeo had given me. The look of a tiger with its prey cornered right before its eyes.
Certain that something enormous was about to befall me at Shuchun, I agonized over it and finally concluded that I had no choice but to swallow the pill.
"..."
The moment the round pill hit my stomach, heat came roaring up from my core, and I cursed inwardly. A little, my ass.A LITTLE, MY ASS!!
Still, it wasn't quite beyond bearing, so I did my best not to let it show.
The problem was that just as I was somehow managing to hold my desire in check, Seo Yeo launched a relentless physical offensive of her own. Her actions were, quite literally, a torch touched to a powder keg — and the result...
"Mmh...! M-Master...!"
"Not yet."
"Huh?!"
Seo Yeo had no choice but to bear the full brunt of my desire with her own body.
"W-Wait, just—!"
"I told you, not yet."
Each time my hips drove forward, the sound of our joined bodies rang out without pause. That lewd, wet rhythm only fanned the flames of my desire higher — and the more furiously I moved, the more it was Seo Yeo who was being undone.
"Mmmngh?!"
Was it her extraordinary physical gifts? Or sheer willpower, a refusal to make a sound no matter what? Even as another climax crashed through her, Seo Yeo kept her mouth clamped shut, letting out only the quietest whimper of a moan.
Of course, biting back her voice was clearly consuming a tremendous amount of her focus — she looked to be struggling badly. But I was in no mood to be considerate. Whose fault was it for tempting me in the first place?
"Ah—!"
Then I felt the silken walls gripping my cock clench and ripple once more. Another signal that she was climbing toward her peak. I was close myself by then, so I quickened my pace.
"Eh— ah— hngh?!"
"I'm about to—!"
The faster I moved, the deeper the pleasure coiled up my spine, and just as it threatened to drown my mind entirely, I buried myself to the hilt inside her. In the same instant, Seo Yeo came with a moan that had long since stopped meaning anything at all.
"Nnnhh—!!"
"Kh—!"
Spurt! Spurt!
Feeling that staggering pressure grip me from every side, I could hold back no longer and spilled myself deep inside her. Even in the throes of her own climax, Seo Yeo's body moved on instinct, rippling around me to wring out every last drop of my release.
This was... genuinely overwhelming. My legs were shaking.
Her oversensitized walls kept milking me even as I came, drawing out what had already been pouring forth in endless pulses until she had emptied me completely. She had to have been drowning in climax after climax, barely able to hold on to her senses — and yet she was the one granting me pleasure like this.
"Mmh... nnh..."
I pulled her sweat-soaked naked body into my arms and spoke.
"That was incredible, Seo Yeo."
"Th-thank you..."
For the first time since I'd known her, the woman who had never once shown a trace of fatigue looked, at last, spent.
I spoke to Seo Yeo, whose face had flushed crimson.
"Time for round two, isn't it?"
"...What?"
Seo Yeo echoed back in a fluster. Sharing a bed really did reveal sides of her I had never seen before. I answered as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.
"Round two."
"...Now that you mention it."
At my words, Seo Yeo flinched all at once. She was still joined with me, after all — she would know better than anyone. That my cock had not gone down in the slightest.
"Moving again already?"
When I said that and showed signs of starting up once more, Seo Yeo spoke up in a hurry.
"C-Could we have just a little more time to rest..."
"...Oh?"
She hadn't said no. I was terribly fond of that kind of kindness. Of course, my answer was already decided.
"No."
"Hiiyngh—?!"
When I began to move again, Seo Yeo melted into another helpless, shuddering moan. Let's see. She'd climaxed well over a hundred times during my single release — would this round be the same? Only one way to find out.
"M-Master—!"
"Yes, I know."
"N-No, that's not—?!"
Oh. It wasn't? She was clenching down so tightly around me as she spoke that I'd taken it for a plea to move faster.
Needless to say, I had no intention of slowing down. The pleasure flooding my lower half was one thing, but every thrust coaxed a reaction out of Seo Yeo far too entertaining to pass up.
"Hik—!"
The woman I was toying with let out a cry louder than any before. She was failing to hold back her voice more and more often — and come to think of it, she was reaching her peak faster now, too.
Could she actually pass out from the pleasure? ...Nah, no way. I couldn't imagine Seo Yeo — that Seo Yeo — collapsing in the middle of the act. If anyone was going down, it would be me. There was simply no scenario in which she fell first...
"...Ah."
Thud!
At that moment, Seo Yeo peaked one final time — and crumpled to the bed in a heap.
"...Huh? Seo Yeo?"
Startled, I called her name, but she didn't stir, limp as a puppet with its strings cut.
"..."
I stared at her, at a complete loss for words. So... she actually lost consciousness? For real?
As I stood frozen, beholding a feat no one in history had ever achieved, the closed door burst open without warning. I jolted in shock and whipped my head toward it — where a single figure stood glaring daggers at me.
"I-I heard strange noises and kept telling myself it couldn't be, but..."
Blood-red eyes that burned vivid even in the darkened room. Crimson hair tied off into twin tails. In short — Lü Bu Fengxian herself had heard us in the act and stormed into the room.
"This is so unfair! Why her and not me, leaving me behind and—!"
Lü Bu made no effort to hide the resentment boiling on her face. An ordinary man would have panicked on the spot. But the medicine Hua Tuo had given me had long since robbed me of my better judgment.
"Why? Do you want to join?"
"..."
Lü Bu froze solid at my words. Even my desire-pickled brain registered the mistake a beat too late. I had just said something I'd have no excuse for, even if she decked me right then and there.
Yes, the medicine had addled my brain somewhat — but still, there were lines you didn't cross. I watched her with my heart in my throat, until the frozen Lü Bu finally moved.
"I-That's..."
"...That's?"
Contrary to my expectation that she would explode in fury and storm right back out, Lü Bu couldn't get the words out — and instead lingered where she stood. ...Don't tell me.
Withdrawing from Seo Yeo, I strode toward Lü Bu in long, deliberate steps. For a moment, the sight of her — unconscious, yet still clinging to me and refusing to let go — stirred my lust anew, but I forced it down. Naturally, the instant Lü Bu's eyes dropped to the monstrous thing hanging between my legs, she went scarlet with panic.
"W-What are you doing?! Why are you coming closer!"
"To help you, obviously."
I went on calmly over her outburst.
"Leave this room, or be caught by me."
Had I been in my right mind, I might have read the room more carefully. But fear had simply been switched off in me. Knowing how Lü Bu treated me, I had calculated that at the very least, she wouldn't resort to violence.
"I'm in something of a hurry myself, you see."
"..."
"Choose."
Had Lü Bu, too, finished readying her heart to come to me? I found myself genuinely curious whether she could act as Seo Yeo had.
"Will you run? Or won't you?"
"...Who said anything about running!"
With that shout, Lü Bu slammed the door shut — and came at me in a tackle.
"Wha—?"
A low, driving lunge — the kind of flawless tackle you'd only expect to see in a professional fight. It happened so fast that when her arms locked around my waist, I couldn't offer even a token resistance and simply went sprawling backward.
...Not that I had any realistic hope of stopping a tackle from someone like Lü Bu in the first place.
Shoved back and back until I crashed onto the bed, I looked up to find Lü Bu straddling me as she declared:
"S-Steel yourself! I'll show you exactly why they call me the Peerless Under Heaven...!"
Saying that with a face that looked ready to burst — it wasn't very convincing.
And when I felt something damp against my stomach from where she straddled me, I couldn't help but chuckle.
