Chapter 126: An Offer Too Tempting, a Battle Within, and a Surprising Grasp

“The jacket you’re wearing now, it’s definitely El’s, right?”

Come to think of it, we switched clothes too.

From the beginning, even the jacket I had gotten from Yuri when I visited her place during summer vacation was exactly the same as mine except for the worn-out parts, so I had forgotten about it again.

“Huh?”

At Celian’s words, Yuri checked the jacket she was wearing by turning her body this way and that.

“Uh…. Um…. I think so. How did this get switched?”

“Sorry. It must have been switched because I accidentally wore Yuri’s jacket.”

I took off the jacket I was wearing and handed it to Yuri.

Yuri, who received her jacket back from me, was somehow hesitating to take off the jacket she was wearing and was procrastinating.

“Yuri.”

When Celian called Yuri’s name, Yuri finally took off the jacket and returned it to me.

Was it because we had been wearing it until close to the evening? When I put on the jacket I received back, I could smell the scent that I could usually smell from Yuri, as if she was right next to me.

I sniffed softly so that the two of them couldn’t hear me well, but Celian and Yuri were staring at me.

I was burdened by the two people’s gazes, and I felt like a pervert, so I stopped immediately.

“Then Yuri, shall we talk for a while?”

“Uh, huh?”

The jacket returned to its original owner, and Celian opened her mouth again towards Yuri.

It was probably the story about the penalty that we were talking about in the morning.

Yuri also seemed to have sensed that something was wrong from Celian’s appearance and voice, and was panicking.

• I, I’ll go inside for a while.

Rinne, who always had popcorn in her hand no matter where she was, also sensed that the atmosphere was flowing in an unusual way and switched to stealth mode.

Now, only me, Yuri, and Celian were really in the waiting room.

I took a step back, no, several steps back, and moved to the corner of the waiting room to give Celian and Yuri a chance to talk well.

With this much, the two of them will be able to talk well without being conscious of me.

I’m definitely not running away like Rinne because I’m scared.

---

“Well…. I thought so.”

“Hehe…. Right? El just had a sparring match with our father.”

Thanks to me giving them space, it seemed that the story had been resolved well.

I was about to go back to my original place, but Celian’s voice rang out again.

“…But, isn’t it true that you went into the bathroom with El…?”

“Hiccup!”

No, it seems that the story is not over yet. Let’s retreat to the corner again… no, let’s give them space.

“As expected, a penalty….”

“Wa, wait a minute!”

I don’t know where there was a part to receive a penalty in the part where I went into the bathroom with Yuri, but Yuri shouted out loud as soon as the story about the penalty came out.

I also flinched and stopped for a moment as I was retreating to the corner.

Just as I was about to turn around to see what was going on, the sound of small footsteps was heard first, and then I felt a weight on my back.

When I suddenly turned my head slightly, Yuri, who had been getting scolded by Celian until just now, was hugging me from behind.

“Yuri…?”

I called Yuri’s name at the questionable action, but Yuri ignored me and just hugged me quietly with her arms around my waist.

“Yuri! El is embarrassed….”

“Kyaawoong!”

Celian also tried to stop Yuri’s sudden action, but Yuri’s hand, which was on my waist, quickly went up and grabbed my chest.

“U, um…. Yuri…?”

“Ta, take your hands off right now! We set the rules together….”

“Hey, why are you being like this over this much? Friends can play around this much.”

Yuri’s voice, who was playing with my chest, felt mischievous, but I had to avoid suspicious actions even more since Celian was also watching.

“Isn’t that right, El?”

“O, of course…. Haha…. Ha… Uhng!”

However, Celian was just standing there silently, looking at me and Yuri.

Her face was lost in thought.

I was worried that Celian might be suspecting something, feeling awkwardness from my appearance because I was reacting too sensitively to Yuri’s joke.

In order to avoid Celian’s suspicion, I tried to suppress my body, which was reacting without me knowing, and tried to make a calm expression.

“Haa, haa….”

Even while I was catching my breath after Yuri let go of me, I was looking at Celian, but she still looked like she was thinking about something.

“Co, come on! Celie, try it too. It’s just a joke that friends can have! It’s just! a joke! Right?”

However, not seeing that I was exhausted, Yuri started pushing Celian’s back towards me, urging her.

“Give me a moment to catch my breath…! Kyaaang?”

Celian’s hand, which was being held by Yuri and was heading towards my chest, had a dazed face.

And then, as with Yuri, Celian started playing with my chest despite my pleas.

“Then I’ll go now! It was just a joke, so there’s no penalty, right?”

“A joke…. Ye, that’s right. Because it’s a joke….”

While Celian was playing with me, Yuri burst open the waiting room door and ran out in an instant.

No, I! Don’t leave me!

---

I had been subjected to Yuri’s and Celian’s pranks twice in a row, so I didn’t even have the strength to stand up. I just sat on the floor and caught my breath.

Celian had a face like she would burst with anger just a moment ago, saying that she had to give Yuri a penalty, but as she was playing with me, her anger seemed to have subsided, and she had the kindest face of anyone in the world.

Should I say that it’s fortunate that I could reconcile the two of them by sacrificing my body?

I moved my feet with difficulty, half crawling, and leaned on the sofa.

When I lowered my head while sitting, I could see my chest, which Yuri and Celian had played with so much.

When I raised my head again and looked at Celian, I could see Celian’s chest, which was slightly bigger than mine.

What’s with the chest, and why do the two of them like playing with my chest?

They may have different meanings, but is it the same for men and women to like breasts?

It’s been quite a while since I started living as a woman, but I still don’t understand women’s psychology.

Of course, I also like women’s breasts.

But that’s because I’m a man, not because I like it in the same way as Celian or Yuri.

“El? It’s embarrassing even for me if you stare at me so intently….”

I came to my senses at Celian’s voice calling me.

I had been thinking about breasts, so I had been staring at Celian’s chest without me knowing.

…Looking at it this way, I really look like a pervert.

“S, sorry! I did it without me knowing….”

Perhaps because we were the same woman, I couldn’t find any displeasure on Celian’s face.

“Th…. Um….”

“Yeah?”

“Since it’s unfair for you to be the only one who gets teased, how about El teases me too?”

?

“What are you talking about?”

“I mean, I’m telling you that you can touch my chest too.”

---

The words that came out of Celian’s mouth were completely unexpected.

She must be saying that because she’s mindful of the fact that I was staring at her chest.

It’s her consideration that comes from her fair and just personality, who has grown up as a Hero candidate.

But if I accept it here, I’ll just be a perverted sc*mbag who takes advantage of Celian’s innocence.

“No, don’t worry about it. Th…. The reason why I had my eyes on it was because I did it without thinking, without any intention.”

“No! El has to touch my chest too!”

“Shh, shh!”

I forcefully dragged my staggering legs and approached Celian and covered her mouth with my hand at the sight of a grown woman shouting her chest out loud without any shame.

Fortunately, the waiting room door was tightly closed, so it seems that I was the only one who heard Celian’s embarrassing voice.

“Phew….”

However, Celian didn’t seem to see me relieved, and continued to recommend it with a loud voice.

Of course, I couldn’t accept the offer, so I had no choice but to reject Celian’s shout, which she shouted several times.

No matter how suspicious I may be, I could not abandon my last shred of conscience as a gentleman.

“…So you’re going to do that. It’s because El did something wrong.”

Celian, who was constantly showing the right appearance, was looking at me with one hand in her pocket and with words that felt somewhat scary, as if she was angry at my continued rejection.

Celian, who always showed the right appearance, was standing there in such a rebellious appearance.

Was she that angry? It’s hard to believe.

“Celie…?”

“Touch it quickly.”

“I told you I can’t.”

No matter how rebellious she looks and how scary her voice is, I also closed my eyes completely and answered in a firm voice because what can’t be done can’t be done.

“Yes, like that….”

?

However, when I tilted my head and opened my eyes at the sight of Celian, whose words had somehow changed, I saw my two hands slowly rising.

St, stop!

I barely stopped the hands that were moving without me knowing and took a sigh of relief.

“What are you doing? Why don’t you touch it quickly.”

However, as if stopping was a lie, my hands started moving towards Celian’s chest again at Celian’s suggestion.

Was my s*xual desire built up that much?

To the point of exploiting an innocent girl’s consideration?

I was a perverted bastard who was eaten up by s*xual desire!

I was able to stop the hands that were moving on their own, again exerting superhuman patience.

‘Don’t you want to touch it? There’s no problem since the person herself says you can touch it. Just close your eyes and touch it.’

…Even the voice of my inner self, deep in my heart, is encouraging me.

I only feel pathetic about myself.

An assassin, and now a hero, can’t even control his own body or his own s*xual desire.

It’s really pathetic.

‘You want to touch it too, don’t you? She’s also allowing your hands, and you want to touch it. This is a perfectly natural thing, you know?’

My hands are shortening the distance towards her chest again with the voice of my inner self seducing me, but they stopped again without going to the end.

Even if the voice of my inner self tempts me, I can never collapse.

‘Touch it!’

No!

‘Touch it!’

No!

After fighting with the voice of my inner self for a long time, my hands were trembling without being able to do this or that.

But if I only listen to the voice of my inner self and act according to my instincts, and if I can’t control myself because I’m swept away by s*xual desire, then that’s an animal, not a human.

I’m not a randy dog, I’m a person!

‘Ah, just touch it a little bit!’

Grasp

…Huh.
