One Becomes Two
If Ria asked Yusti, "Have you ever had sex?" I would answer proudly, "I have." At the regular checkup center I visited for condition checks, I used to write 0 in the "sex" field back when I was a rookie hero, but now I could confidently write 1. Ah, now it's 2. It's nothing more than satisfying my lust with an onahole, but if that counts as sex, then it counts as sex.
Throughout my eternal life, I prided myself on living an ascetic existence. Raised as an orphan without parents, I followed Sister Alicia's teachings and gave away whatever money I had to those in need without hesitation. If someone required my help, I never feared burning this body of mine. Because of that, in an era where even A-Class heroes couldn't live without financial strain, I—an S-Class hero—had always lived in a cramped ten-pyeong semi-basement studio, stuffing my few belongings into every corner. It was a truly impoverished life. I had known it even then but pretended not to. Looking back now, it seems it was more than impoverished... it was downright miserable.
Once, an A-Class junior hero who had followed me saying he wanted to see my house took one look at that shabby semi-basement studio and accidentally compared me to Inferno, then apologized profusely. I had smiled awkwardly and told him it was fine. I wonder what that guy—who's dead now—would say if he saw the grandest palace in Tenebris where I live. Would he say I've changed? Or that it turned out well? I hope he would say it turned out well. After all, I really am happy.
Still, even someone like me hadn't lived without desire even once. The first time was when sausages appeared on the orphanage menu and I fought with Ria over getting one more. The second was when I threw a tantrum, insisting my first supply equipment be red if possible. Both times, I remember getting a honeyed smack from Sister Alicia. The third was when I took Sena into my arms.
She had grown up with me in the orphanage. Even after we started our hero lives with Ria and became busy, we still saw each other's faces regularly. Sena was the only one who supported and smiled at the life that made everyone else recoil in horror. I was so grateful to her, so fond of her, that I loved her with an ambition beyond my station—and thankfully, she accepted me. With her, we overlapped our bodies exactly once.
It was sometime... probably right before Sena quit being a hero. We had been heading to the front lines against Ravilis for a joint mission when the two of us got separated in a cave. Sena, trembling from the cold, clung to me, and there in that lightless cave—whether night passed or day came, we didn't know—we devoured each other hungrily. Of course, that was the end of it. Sena quit being a hero and grew even busier, and I threw myself into harder work to erase that lingering regret. Then Sena died, and so did I. There was never time to overlap our bodies again.
But my desires didn't end there. Ria. Miriam. Even knowing that I shared love with her sister, she confessed her love to me with tears in her eyes. Not wanting to hurt her, I told Sena that day that I wanted her to accept Ria. Sena got angry, but in the end she closed her eyes and allowed it. I remember that night when, because work was busy the next day, we had to settle for just a kiss. But that too was fleeting. Overwhelmed by guilt toward Sena, I never once embraced Miriam before everything happened. Thinking about it now, even if I reconsider, the number I should write in the hospital's sex column is still just 1. Now it's 2.
It was a pathetic memory. A memory that surfaced because this hot, slippery, sticky sensation on my cock reminded me of Sena. Well, it's something I should forget now.
"Ah, aah♥ Nooo♥ Don't do that♥ Don't do thaaat♥"
"Anima, you can keep doing what you were doing."
"...You seem to be in a good mood, Cezar."
"Do I? Well, honestly, relieving my urges doesn't feel bad. Though I admit it's ridiculous to be doing this so brazenly in front of you."
"I'm glad you are aware of it."
"Mm... sorry?"
"It's fine. As you said, Cezar, I will continue the training."
Anima, as if trying not to pay attention to the fact that my cock was inside, busily moved her feathered hand and tickled Trivia's nipples. Trivia's pussy had always been hot enough to melt a cock, slick and sticky, but the pleasure from having her nipples teased must have felt unbearably good, because the pressure on my shaft intensified as her hole clenched and writhed.
"Aah♥ Hah♥ Hah♥ Aaaah♥ That♥ I said don't do thaaat♥"
"Speak in formal speech."
"I don't knooow♥ I don't know that♥"
She hadn't even reached half the pleasure yet. Even so, Miriam—no, Trivia's pussy began twitching faster, and soon she spurted hot fluids all over my abdomen while her body trembled. It wasn't hard to tell she had reached climax.
"Ugh♥ Hng♥ Hic♥ Hah♥"
"Cezar hasn't come yet, so don't loosen your pussy."
What was this? Hearing the usually serious Anima say "pussy" felt even lewder. Was this also because I had gone mad? Or was it just normal? I really didn't know.
"Nng♥ Ooh♥ Again♥ I'm going again♥ I'm goooing♥"
"Tsk. Useless thing."
Anima, looking slightly annoyed, stopped tickling the nipples and instead grabbed and twisted them with her gloved hand.
"Kuuuuh♥ Aaaah♥♥"
"Properly tighten your pussy, I said."
"I did♥ I did tiiighten it♥ Aaaah♥"
Then, with her other hand, she slapped Trivia's breast. It felt like... a hint of emotion was mixed in, but it was probably just my imagination.
"Mm, it's finally starting to rise."
"Please climax at your leisure."
"How should I put it... the way you talk is really lewd, Anima."
"...That is sexual harassment."
"Sorry. I'll be careful."
"Ah, no... it was a joke. I didn't feel bad."
"Really?"
"Yes..."
Both my cock and my eyes were satisfied. While feeling that hot pussy, I could also see Anima blushing and looking embarrassed. The urge to ejaculate that had been drawn up from below filled my shaft, and in the end I let out a rather pathetic groan—"Kuh..."—and poured thick semen into Trivia's pussy.
However, this wasn't an act for mere pleasure. So I immediately drew up my mana and, without pulling out, placed my hand on her lower abdomen where her womb was located.
"Hng♥? Ah♥? Ooh♥? Ooh♥ Ooh♥ Ooooooh♥ Kuuuuh♥"
But her reaction was... a little strange.
"Krrrrk, kuh, kuh♥ Hng♥ Hoooooh♥"
"What? What's wrong with her?"
"I do not know."
"Is this okay? Her eyes are rolled back."
"Well, as long as she doesn't die, it should be fine, shouldn't it?"
"I'm bad enough, but you're not much better either, Anima..."
"It was you who did it, Cezar."
"Well, that's true, but..."
No matter how much I tried to hold back, she was screaming like she was dying and convulsing as if she would tear apart the chains binding her... Trivia's body began to be enveloped in a black light little by little. Both Anima and I immediately pulled away from Miriam, and the mana that had been wrapped around my hand had long since disappeared, but no matter how I looked at it... this seemed a little dangerous.
"Ooooooh♥ Kuuuuh♥ Heh, heuuuuh♥"
Clang! The chains that had bound her limbs completely shattered. I had heard they were made of quite sturdy material...
Is this really okay?
Trivia's—no, Miriam's panting only subsided after thirty minutes. Throughout her ragged breathing, black mana crackled and wrapped around her body. At times it seemed her hair and eye color changed, but once all movement ceased, she returned to her original appearance. No, her hair color seemed a little darker... was that my imagination?
When I quickly ran over and shook Trivia's body that had been thrown carelessly on the floor, even though she seemed completely drained and unable to regain consciousness, a faint light entered her water-blue eyes as she met my gaze. However—
"You awake?"
"Yusti... O... ppa."
"Trivia, no, Miriam?"
"......"
That too lasted only a moment. After uttering "Yusti," she closed her eyes again and went limp. Thankfully, she was still breathing, but...
"Anima, let's stop here for today."
"Yes, Cezar. I will immediately return Miriam to confinement."
"Today... no, do that."
"Yes."
Without realizing it, I almost said, "Let's let her sleep in my room today." Because the word "Yusti" she had spoken was my original name, not my hero name. Yeah, without realizing it, I almost overlapped her with that young Ria. It was truly, truly ridiculous. She had betrayed me. It wasn't entirely her fault, but in the end, because of her, my entire life was denied and I met my death. And yet, even now... Yeah. I'm such an idiot.
