Ch.330The World’s NPCs in Uproar (5)

Turning back time to the present.

“So~? Aren’t you going to call those people~?”

-Squeeze.

“Uh, yeah…”

I’m not clueless. I understand perfectly well that when she says to call them, she doesn’t actually mean it.

After arriving at the village with the church, we immediately caught the attention of those guys with Ray and Gorg’s magic power (?) and took care of them all before evening. Then we got rooms at a nearby inn. The people in this village were also being oppressed by the Church bastards, and we likewise advised them to go to Mueller. Well, the distance is getting too far for carriages, so it’ll be difficult to recommend Mueller territory from the next village on. Anyway, that’s not what’s important right now.

-Slide, squeeze.

“Ugh…! R-Ray. First of all, Ira is sleeping…!!”

“That’s why we got two rooms, right? Ira is sleeping soundly in the next room, so no ex•cus•es♡”

“Yes…”

After putting Ira to bed, I wanted to go straight to sleep too, but Ray wouldn’t allow it. She openly expressed her jealousy about more female companions joining us, and I couldn’t ignore her feelings, so we’ve been in this situation for several days now. Ah, what situation, you ask?

-Slide.

“Eek…!”

“Hehe, Jack, you’re so cute.”

Cute my ass…!! What’s cute about me letting out a high-pitched scream in my own voice?!!

Since that day, whenever we weren’t camping, Ragni and Gorg started sticking to me in their underwear. They even insisted on having me to themselves one at a time, so the only time the three of us slept together was at the Mueller mansion. After that, it was always just the two of us. Like now.

-Squish.

“Mmph…!!”

Ray presses her voluptuous figure against me without reservation, pulling my chin with one hand to overlap our lips. With her other hand, she grabs my arm and forcibly(?) guides it to her smooth thigh that’s resting on my leg, and then to the body part behind it, placing my hand on her buttocks. Uwah… it’s so soft…!!

“Chu~♡ Haah, kissing Jack is always thrilling and fresh…♥”

“Puha! Th-that’s good.”

“But, do you still not like my body? Do I have to ask for you to touch me?”

“L-listen…!!”

My rationality!! My rationality is slipping!!! I’m a man too!!!

The soft, luscious, and firm sensation at my fingertips makes me feel like I’m about to die. Moreover, Ray, who’s pressing against me, smells like soft, warm milk, and my rationality is on the verge of death!! My male instinct is asking me, ‘Really? You’re resisting this? Are you crazy?’ When did I become someone with a split personality?!!

“Ja~ck~ Touch me~♡”

“Urgh!!”

She hasn’t taken off her top, but since it’s right before bed, she’s only wearing a thin shirt. As she caresses it teasingly with her fingers and speaks in a coquettish voice, I close my eyes tightly and move my hand. Uwah!!! It’s, it’s so damn soft…!!!

“Ah♡ …Hehe. Jack, why are you holding back so much? I told you it’s okay to do it? I’m yours, remember?”

“Please…! I told you, we can’t have children yet?!!”

“Oh, we can just do it on safe days, and not finish inside, right♥ And today is sa~fe♡” Ray teases me instead, making the blood rush to my head. You!! Do you know how much I’m holding back right now?! Do you think babies won’t happen if I don’t finish inside?! I saw it on YouTube!! I saw a video where they did it on a safe day without a condom, finished outside, and still got pregnant!! They said if you do that for a year, there’s an 85 percent chance!!

“…Tch, what’s that? Those memories from your past life are really annoying.”

Faced with my desperate resistance, Ray clicks her tongue lightly and rolls her eyes, then climbs on top of me, nuzzling against me and starting to explore my lips. Uwaaah!! Is there a reason we have to kiss like this?! Are you trying to kill me?!! It feels good!! Shit, no!! Get a grip!! Don’t move your hands!! Don’t grab her butt!!! Jack Jr.!! If any more blood rushes there, I’ll physically break it!! I really will!!! Instinct to reproduce, please exit for a moment!!!

“Mmm, chu~♡ Haah~♥”

It’s definitely not my imagination that Ray, who is roughly exploring my lips, seems to be pleading for something with her deep eyes. But I really can’t do it yet, and my rationality is beating my instinct like a defense attorney. Yes, if I give in to instinct now, our future journey… the current situation with this circulation thing will definitely go to hell!! If I mess up, just as that incestuous pervert spirit user said, we might have no choice but to form an investigation squad with Jack Jr.! I don’t want to be a commander who tells my children to offer their hearts!!!

“Puha.”

“Haah!!”

After nearly 10 minutes of continuous kissing, saliva stretches like a thread between our lips, and Ray, seemingly giving up, lifts my arm and crawls between my side. Is, is it finally over…?

“Really, I love your mental strength and self-control, but if you make me yearn too much, I’ll get upset too, you know…?”

“Let me tell you, my self-control and mental strength are at their limit. So, please? Let’s stop for today. I’ll make it up to you later.”

“Hehe, so you were at your limit? Jack is cuter than I thought♡”

“Well…”

“I guess it can’t be helped. Honestly, I’m still annoyed that you have other women, and that you’ve given your heart to that Miho, but if I get any angrier at you after you’ve given in like this for a week… we might end up being hated instead.”

That won’t happen. It’s definitely my fault. If that’s really the only way to appease your anger, I was actually prepared to unlock the main event if necessary.

In fact, my instinct, which has been beaten to a pulp by my rationality, is arguing, ‘Wouldn’t it be fine to go with the 2nd Generation Squad strategy? With 6 women, if each has one child every 2 years, that’s 12 in total. What couldn’t a full squad of Jack Rayners defeat?’ But what are we trying to do with just one squad of Rayners against someone who isn’t even Amon? Conquer the universe? And if we don’t find 12 Kerrigans, how can we stop them later?

At the very least, it’s inevitable that my children, upon hearing that their parents had them to use as troops, would try to kill me first. One trash emperor like Ragni’s father-in-law is more than enough; I don’t need to become Mengsk!!

“I’m sorry. Really, just bear with me a little longer.”

“…Alright. But it’s really just a little longer, right? And you’ll definitely prioritize one of us three. Understood?”

As I hug Ray who’s lying next to me and apologize quietly, she smiles and responds. Not asking me to choose her, but to prioritize one of the three women I liked first. I can’t help but love her because she can say such things as if they’re natural.

I haven’t told anyone, including Gorg, what the spirit user said. If Ray and Ragni heard that and started charging at me saying, “So having children would solve it, right?”, it would truly become a game of chicken from that point on. But if I really can’t see a solution, I’ll tell them everything then. Even if I have to die protecting them, I want to protect these girls who have directed their feelings so sincerely toward me.

“…Yes. I promise.”

“Hehe. That’s enough. Now, go back to your room. Even though she’s sleeping deeply, if Ira wakes up and doesn’t see you, she’ll be very anxious.”

Honestly, I’m exhausted. I even thought it wouldn’t be bad to fall asleep holding Ray like this, but as soon as Ira’s name is mentioned, my body gets up automatically as if nothing happened. Oh, my clothes are wet.

“I’ll send Gorg to this room. Well, sleep well.”

“You rest well too, Jack.”

After answering with a kiss on the forehead of Ray, who was lying in her underwear and waving her hand slightly, I left the room and entered the one next door. And there I saw Gorg, who was holding Ira in her arms as if substituting for me, turning her face silently and smirking. …Do you find this funny?

[It is funny. It means that even after a week, she couldn’t conquer Master. Ray is an attractive woman even from my perspective with status windows, so isn’t it funny that Master, who isn’t sexually impotent, overcame her with just self-control and rationality?]

Since Ira is sleeping, Gorg answers with a status window instead of her voice, and it makes my head hurt. Haven’t you changed a lot? Even though your status window shows nothing different except your level, your responses are too human-like.

[Well. I’ve had opportunities to feel not only positive emotions but also negative ones in large amounts. I think that might be the cause. Ah, hearing about Master adding more women was one of them, but there were situations that made me feel even more negative. I’ll tell you about it later. Now, take Ira.]

“…Let me change clothes first.”

Feeling my shoulders narrow again at Gorg’s blatant criticism, I changed all my clothes and pants that were wet with Ray’s and my sweat and… something. Sigh, Ray seems to be at her limit too. This is almost like I came in my clothes. I did.

[Ragni is twenty-two, and Ray will soon be twenty-two as well. By this world’s standards for humans, they’re past the prime age. Don’t neglect the females who are desperately longing for Master.]

“…I’m sorry.”

[…I wasn’t talking about myself, but.]

No, I’m truly sorry to all of you.

Saying I didn’t like it, wouldn’t look at you that way, telling you to get away, ignoring you for almost 3 years, and now asking you to wait—I’m too pathetic. Even though I knew this world wasn’t a game, I put up too many walls. It was almost like leading you on. So…

-Smooch.

[…That’s not Ira’s forehead?]

“I did it because it’s you. Thank you for everything so far. And please continue to support me. Now, I’ll hold her and sleep. Don’t let Ray sleep alone either, go be with her.”

[I was going to ask for my turn again tomorrow, but after this, I can’t help but forgive you.]

R-really? But Ray said today was the end…? So…

[In return, I’d like kisses like that more often. Well, sleep well.]

“…Oh, good night.”

It was definitely not my imagination that Gorg’s face, which used to be expressionless or just slightly smiling at the corners of her mouth, now made her eyes curve like crescent moons and seemed to have a somewhat seductive expression. This is driving me crazy; am I really going to have to impregnate a golem too? Is that even possible? Hey, Jack Jr., could you handle stone too?

“…Ira. What should your brother really do?”

“Mmnya. Brother… love…”

Unaware of the tremendous worry that her brother might have his lower body covered in blood every night, Ira just hugged my neck and sleep-talked.

*

About a month and a bit more after that day.

“What? What did you just s…”

“I said that no one except me can enter the capital right now. That’s what he said.”

Helgort Duchy. We met Ragni, who had been waiting for us in the building next to the fortress destroyed by the Headmaster, and the Headmaster himself, who was kicking a pink-haired demon with an extremely annoyed expression. We all froze before we could properly celebrate our joyful reunion.
