Volume 5 Chapter 57 I Want You To Take It Away...
This chapter is rated R15.
After Kyunei left the room for a while, Reed sat down next to me naturally, without either of us prompting it.
"Hey, I... I actually want you."
Eventually, Reed started speaking hesitantly, repeatedly averting her gaze shyly as our eyes met by chance.
"Um, don't get the wrong idea. At first, whether you were a guy or a girl didn't matter. But, if someone like you joined the mercenary group and became my right-hand man, it would be really fun."
Now, I could kind of understood a bit. Somehow, fighting alongside this guy felt not just reassuring like when Mikage is by my side, but also fun in a different way.
"I couldn't help but think that way anymore. Using Slay seriously after a long time got me all pumped up... I never expected that guy to be yanked out of the ground. That was really thrilling."
Reed chuckled to herself, then let out a lonely sigh after laughing.
"But, when we clashed for real, I realized. My 'greed' alone isn't enough to hold you back. I was truly made aware of that."
"But you won't give up, right?"
"Yeah, that's right. If you think I'll give up easily, I wouldn't have thought of knocking you down from the start."
In the end, Reed was just brutally honest with herself. In that sense, maybe we are a bit similar after all.
"That story was about Kyunei-chan, who came to Healing. And you know what Kyunei-chan did when she heard it?"
--If you can't make Yukina-kun yours, then make yourself his instead.
--It would be great if Reed-kun became Yukina-kun's, right?
"I heard she used to be the top prost***te in the royal capital... Are all the prost***tes in the royal capital like that?"
"That's just Kyunei being a bit unique."
"At first, I thought it was a joke, but when she brought a mountain of costumes for the next doctor examination, I finally realized she was serious."
It seems she grabbed them from a brothel associated with the Jingin Family. When I close my eyes, I can see Kyunei happily dressing up Reed in my mind.
"So, thanks to Kyunei's clever manipulation, I've come to this point."
Nodding shyly, Reed agreed.
I cover my face with my hand. Maybe, Kyunei has been waiting for this opportunity ever since she found out Reed was a woman. At least, that's what I suspect. It might have crossed her mind not long after we first met.
"...What does Reed really think about Kyunei's proposal?"
"I'm not so naive that I can't understand the meaning of that proposal. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone this far dressed like this."
Blushing and all, Reed hugs her arms around herself, emphasizing her curvaceous figure, with soft mounds pressed against her arms.
"That compliment earlier was so embarrassing, but I was actually quite happy about it too. It's been a while since I dressed up like a woman."
"Anyone who doesn't compliment you now has a fatal flaw as a man."
"Is that so... hehe"
Reed blushed but smiled happily. No one who saw her now would think she was a fearsome mercenary known as 'Trampling'.
"I took on a male appearance because it was convenient for me as a mercenary. It was easier to lead a mercenary group this way. It's not like that was the reason, but I always desired women. But being embraced by a weaker man than myself was out of the question."
Although she had visited brothels before and even approached female mercenaries, she had never spent a night with a man.
"Moreover, it had been a long time since I lost a fight to a man. It was my first time since acquiring the 'Snake Belly Sword (Slay)'. In that regard... I'm totally fine."
Reed scratched her cheek in a troubled manner as she spoke hesitantly.
"I know it's a bit awkward to say this after all that's happened, but what I wanted from you wasn't about the usual male-female stuff."
"Well, I had a feeling from the start."
I had a sense that it was more like Nikyou wanting the cup, so it wasn't a surprising revelation. After all, being recognized as a second-rank and top-notch mercenary was quite an achievement.
"...But, talking to Kyunei-chan changed my mind a bit."
"Huh?"
Before I could even question it, Reed grabbed my shoulder and pushed me onto the bed.
Beneath the covers, she had the smile of a fierce carnivorous beast reveling in bliss before its prey. Just moments ago, she had appeared as a stunning beauty admired by many, yet now she exuded a savage allure that only enhanced her wild beauty.
"I won't tolerate half-heartedness when it comes to my pride. If I'm going to be yours, then you better give me everything. Just as I desire all of you."
"You want me to bear your greed instead of controlling your own, is that it?"
"That's quite an accurate and strange thing to say."
Reed's well-defined face draws closer, her warm breath almost touching my cheek. This feeling... is not just mere excitement or shame.
"...Did you also drink Kyunei's potion?"
"I drank it myself. I couldn't muster the courage otherwise. It's embarrassing to admit, but this is my first time being intimate with a man."
Unlike me, Reed willingly drank the potion. In other words, she is here with determination, pushing me onto the bed.
"To be honest, I don't dislike you. But it's more of a friendly feeling. Even after knowing you're a woman, that hasn't changed."
Reed frowned at my words. Perhaps she felt I were too hesitant given the circumstances.
"But hey," I grabbed Reed's shoulder and turned her around forcefully, swapping our positions. I ended up pushing Reed onto the bed.
"Right now, I'm really excited by you, Reed. Being approached like this, hearing those words from a girl, I'm not so indifferent."
Perhaps there was some encouragement from an aphrodisiac. But even without that, I found Reed incredibly attractive.
"However, I'm not sure if this excitement is just lust or something more. I'm a bit unsure if it's okay to proceed in this state."
I've had experiences back in my hometown as well. I've already been intimate with several women. However, all of those encounters were about expressing feelings and seeking deeper connections. I never just gave in to physical desires. That's what held me back.
"Huh, is that so?"
Despite my serious contemplation, Reed snorted in disbelief.
This time it was my turn to frown, but Reed grabbed both of my cheeks and forcefully pulled my face towards her, pressing our lips together.
It was just a simple kiss, like a mere formality.
Ignoring my surprised expression with wide eyes, Reed pulled away and gave me a twisted smile.
"How was it, excited?"
"If it had lasted two more seconds, I wouldn't have been able to resist."
"Well, then that's fine."
Reed grabbed my left hand and led it to her ample chest without changing her posture even when lying on her back. The palm of my hand felt the contradictory softness that my fingers sank into endlessly, the firm elasticity that pushed back, and a small lump that asserted its definite presence.
Perhaps the ultimate symbol of a woman who captivates men in this world.
"Between a n*ked man and woman, we don't need any pretense or reason right now. Just follow your instincts and desires."
Feeling my heart pounding painfully fast, I realized that Reed's heartbeat was also racing from my left hand. Just like me, I could tell she was excited. Passion overriding embarrassment was currently controlling Reed.
"If you felt a flutter in your heart in front of a girl, that's enough. Love and all that stuff will come later. At least, that's how it is between me and Black Blade. Isn't it?"
"...Yeah, you're right."
Even though my body was burning with heat, it felt like my fluttering feelings settled down with a thud. But it didn't mean I had become extremely calm. It was the calm before the storm, the blank space right before losing control.
With my eyes closed, I kissed Reed. A deeper kiss than before. It was my way of showing determination.
As our lips parted, Reed's teary eyes reflected me.
"Black Blade..."
"It's Yukina. You're ruining the mood, huh?"
"...That's right, Yukina."
Our third kiss drew us closer together.
The kiss stripped away everything unnecessary, bringing our distance to zero. The kiss was filled with anticipation and anxiety for what was to come. The intense desire swirling in our hearts, how powerful it was.
As we parted from the breathless kiss, saliva lingered like reluctant parting, eventually staining Reed's chest as gravity took over.
"Yukina, completely make me yours. Let me know from the bottom of my heart that I am already your possession..."
Responding to the whispered plea, I covered Reed and devoured her without leaving anything behind.
