Chapter 15 – Crevice

Ｒｅａｄ ｏｎ ＫａｔＲｅａｄｉｎｇＣａｆｅ

First, I lay facing Cecile. It was the beginning of sex education lesson 2. I wondered why I had to do this, but… what could I do? I created her, so I should take responsibility. …The thought that this was responsibility without pleasure crossed my mind, but I deliberately ignored it.

Come to think of it, when I created her, it was for quite an impure… purpose, but now that we’re living together, I have all sorts of feelings. It’s especially so because of my memories from my previous life. Many things that were perfectly normal by this world’s standards often felt very off-putting to my sensibilities.

If not for that, I might have lived a little less austerely. But since I couldn’t, I had no choice but to look at Cecile’s face.

When our eyes met, she blinked as if her earlier persistent questions about virginity had been a lie. “Asha?”

I stroked Cecile’s head once… and began lesson 2. “So… virginity means that nothing has ever been put into the hole?” 

“Y-yes, that’s right.”

Speaking calmly about it… must be evidence of her innocence. Somehow it seems like I’m the only one embarrassed. I wondered if the day would ever come when Cecile… felt embarrassment.

Cecile met my eyes. Her face showed some… dissatisfaction. “Is there something you don’t understand?” 

“It’s not that, Asha.” 

“Then?”

“When you say that beast took your virginity… does that mean the beast put its rod into your hole?” 

“…Yes, that’s right.” Cecile looked shocked.

“Do you… love that beast?” Her excited face came closer. She looked like she might burst into tears at any moment. 

“N-no, it’s not like that…”

“Then why… Did you give your virginity to that beast? You clearly said that putting a rod into a hole is something done between people who love each other. So… why… Did you give your virginity to that beast?”

…It was really difficult to explain. My relationship with Claudia was too nuanced to call it rape, but it wasn’t exactly consensual either.

“Well… there are exceptions sometimes. With Claudia… let’s say it was somewhat business-like… um… you could say it was for testing the aphrodisiac prototype… it wasn’t the kind with love.”

In the end, as Claudia said, it became a test for the aphrodisiac. “Cecile loves you, but you won’t let me put it in your hole. Yet…”

“Ah, n-no, that’s… yes, I do love Cecile more than Claudia. But we’re like… parent and child, right?” 

“If we weren’t like parent and child anymore, does that mean Cecile could do what that beast did with you?”

…It sounds a bit strange since she’s using “beast” instead of “Claudia” as the subject. “Let’s change how we refer to Claudia from ‘beast’ to something else, for starters.”

“Why?” 

“I didn’t say anything earlier because it wasn’t a big deal… but it might lead to troublesome situations later, not just with Claudia but with other beastfolk.”

“Then I’ll call them beastfolk.” 

“…Right.” Where am I? But the second lesson with Cecile wasn’t over yet.

“If Cecile isn’t like a parent and child with you anymore, can I do hole-filling with you like the beastfolk?” …What a remarkably creative way to express sex.

“First of all, our relationship… isn’t going to change, and with Claudia too, it was just a one-time thing for testing, so it won’t happen again. So… I guess not?” Cecile chewed her lip. Eventually, she continued.

“Then if Cecile also tests, can I do it like the beastfolk?” 

“…That might be possible, but it probably won’t happen.”

I was reluctant to use Cecile for that, which made the situation quite ironic. Not that I’m saying it would be better to be penetrated by Cecile or anything like that. It’s just a manner of speaking.

“…I understand that.” 

“You do? Then shall we sleep now?” 

“Cecile has one more question.” 

“…?”

“Don’t you have one more hole, Asha?” 

“W-what?” 

“Besides the hole you mentioned, don’t you have another one further down?” 

“…Ah.” Well… that is the right hole, but…

“That’s… as you know, not for p-putting things in.” 

“It’s not allowed?” 

“Of course it’s not…?”

At that, she bowed her head with a dark expression again and started muttering. “Maybe… is it because Cecile is defective?” 

“As I said before, that’s absolutely not the case.”

I stroked the gloomy Cecile’s head and continued. Looking at the atmosphere, it felt like I was comforting a sulking child, but… “Why are you so… focused on virg- I mean, why do you want virginity so much?”

“It’s not because it’s virginity, it’s because it’s your virginity.” 

“…” 

“When you say only that beastfolk took your virginity, it makes me feel… strange.”

What should I call this…? A child’s possessiveness? Jealousy over something they can’t have? How should I explain it… I don’t really know. I would have to have raised a child to understand.

I understand the feeling of not getting a desired toy… if what Cecile wanted was a toy, I would have bought it with a smile… But it’s not that. Even I couldn’t imagine it with a smile.

Anyway, I couldn’t just watch Cecile becoming depressed and continually putting herself down. “Alright… if you want it that badly… I could give it to you.”

“Really!?” Cecile’s red eyes began to sparkle brightly. “Ah, n-no, I’m just saying it could happen, not that I’m giving it right now.”

Since I won’t be making new aphrodisiacs in the future, the possibility would… approach zero, but… if this can make Cecile cheer up, it might be worth it.

In the meantime, a hot rod began poking at my navel. Following Cecile’s renewed spirits, her extension seemed to have regained its vigor as well. “Um… Cecile?” 

“Yes! Asha!” 

“It’s hot… could you move it away?”

“I’m sorry. I got hard again without realizing it…” 

“…It happens, it’s a physiological response after all.” 

“You’re really kind, Asha.”

…Something felt strange. Maybe because my navel was being poked. “Will it go down?”

“I think… I’ll have to do it, um like in the morning.”

That means I need to… help. I’m tired, so let’s finish quickly and go to sleep. “Let’s go.”

“Really!?”

“Yes.”

Having decided to take responsibility, I should see it through to the end. It’s just… looking at a face… something that doesn’t cost money. I took Cecile’s hand and led my somewhat dazed body.

Walking through the slightly cool corridor, we arrived at the bathroom. For some reason, it was a bit hard to breathe. When Cecile lifted her clothes, the now-familiar sweet scent spread and soon filled the space.

I suddenly wondered. Does this scent smell sweet only to me… or would it be the same for others? But… there was no one to ask.

As the sound of water splashing began, Cecile’s arms started moving. However, she didn’t seem to be getting close to ejaculation… her face didn’t look as pleased as before.

For efficiency’s sake, I reluctantly pressed my body against Cecile. Similar to the morning, Cecile began sniffing me. As the air entering Cecile’s nose brushed against me, my body… felt itchy.

Already, thanks to the morning routine, there had been many days when my body would get hot and dazed, but today, perhaps because I was also touched by Claudia… My body was so excited that my mind became hazy.

Each time Cecile exhaled and inhaled, my body twitched slightly. Despite this, Cecile still hadn’t released. In the not-so-spacious area, Cecile’s scent and another somewhat sticky scent mixed together.

Thinking I needed to end this quickly, I asked Cecile. “Cecile… it seems to be taking longer today… is there a problem?”

When Cecile opened her tightly closed mouth, her clothes, soaked with bodily fluids, fell away. Cecile’s lips, which looked moist, became visible. They were red. “I don’t know either, Asha… usually when I smell your fragrant scent… it was fine…”

“Hmm…” My head was dizzy, making it difficult to assess the situation. Why? What’s different… is it because we talked about stimulating… things at night? Is it my fault? Then… should I help more?

“Asha?” 

“Ah, yes?” 

“Are you feeling unwell…? Your face is red.”

…This isn’t because I’m excited, it’s to help Cecile. So it doesn’t have any special meaning. “A-Asha?” 

“I’ll… help you.”

Facing Cecile, I placed my hands on her shoulders. I could feel the pulse of the hot rod between the crevice. When I didn’t resist like last time, it pushed against the flesh and dug in slightly. At the same time, I was lifted slightly… due to the even stiffer rod, but this time it didn’t feel as frightening. Unlike before, Cecile was now maintaining her sanity and looking at me… with worried eyes.

…Though the rod seemed to be a separate entity, continuing to throb. “Now… move like this.” “Yes… Asha.”

Then Cecile embraced my body and began moving her hips. The friction in the crevice stimulated the protruding nub. With the strange feeling, my thighs tightened involuntarily. This made Cecile’s rod feel even more prominent.

Somehow Cecile… moved her hips as if experienced. Just like I had seen her before, she was swinging her hips with a flushed face. With a face that looked like she would ejaculate soon.

Why… could it be something like an instinct engraved at the genetic level? So-called reproductive desire… well, considering how Cecile behaved when she lost her reason… it seemed plausible.

Then came a strong stimulus. It seemed to be because Cecile twitched to adjust her posture. “Hah…”

This time, I suppressed my moan for a different reason. In the workshop, it was to avoid stimulating Cecile… but this time, it’s just to help her. It’s not for my pleasure. I suppressed it.

But my body lost strength, and I ended up leaning on Cecile. This caused the rod to dig deeper into the crevice. It was hot. Cecile, without showing any signs of strain, continued to swing her hips while supporting me. …Impressive. I don’t think I could have done this even in my original body.

A little later, Cecile whispered quietly. “Asha… I think it’s coming soon.” 

“Y-yeah, okay…”

Soon… with a spurting sound, Cecile’s rod vibrated greatly. At the same time, I too… Now I know what to call this. “Hng!”

…Though it’s vulgar, I reached climax. Unlike a man’s brief pleasure, it was a bit… longer. Even during this, Cecile was still ejaculating with her trembling rod.

It’s okay. This is… just a happenstance that occurred in the process of helping. After the heat touching the crevice and the slight feeling of floating disappeared, I carefully opened my mouth.

“…Do you feel better now?” 

“Yes! Thanks to you, Asha, I was able to release it!” 

“That’s… good then. Shall we… go back now?” 

“Understood!”

I left the bathroom while being held by Cecile. Cecile transferred me without saying much. Only after feeling the cold dawn breeze did I come to my senses. My face was burning.

I was overcome with self-disgust at the fact that I had pursued my own pleasure, not excited by Cecile’s fluids. No, no, this is all because of the strangely sweet smell and Claudia. Still embarrassed, I said to Cecile.

“…Cecile, could you put me down?” 

“It’s fine! You’re light, Asha!” 

“…”

In the end, I returned to the room while being held in Cecile’s arms. It was true that I had no strength in my body. After falling asleep with that uncomfortable feeling, the next day my master’s reply arrived.
