Chapter 93: Good Night

Re​ad on KatRead​ingCaf​e

Cedric, who entered the space inside the Crystal Tower, looked around.

The space that Sugar had destroyed, he had successfully infiltrated it by reverse engineering it.

Soon, the voices of several people could be heard.

“It seems insufficient.”

“It’s too early to reveal the truth.”

“Lacking in stature.”

From the deep darkness inside the space, a voice echoed, indistinguishable as to whether it came from a person or not.

“Still… I have hope.”

“I look forward to the day we will be together.”

“Above the sky, below the earth, no one can replace that person.”

“A noble being. I earnestly wish for that day to come.”

The voices that had previously expressed disappointment now carried even more reverence. No one could deny the power of the true saint, and they would worship her.

Just when the atmosphere quieted down, Cedric felt multiple gazes from within the darkness.

“Deliver this to her, light’s servant.”

Only the unyielding darkness, impervious to the ugly starlight, could offer salvation.

The followers of the Shadow Cult, holding such a doctrine, melted into the darkness and vanished.

Cedric clicked his tongue.

He could have fled earlier, but instead, he waited until the holy knights entered before escaping.

“Still as twisted as ever. What’s there to deliver?”

“Shall we attempt reverse engineering?”

“Try it.”

He wasn’t expecting much. These were the ones who were good at disappearing suddenly, running away, and disappearing again. There was a reason they hadn’t been uprooted after all these years.

‘In the first place, they’ve been quietly playing for a heretical group…’

These quiet players were now fighting among themselves, trying to stir up something outside.

It didn’t seem like it was just the Shadow Cult at work. ‘Beastkin.’ This smelled like another heretical faction.

‘It’s still too early to judge…’

Then, something suddenly came to mind.

The victim of this heretical faction, which seemed to defile all creation, was in Steele as well.

‘…Fate, huh.’

He could only hope that the saint would guide them properly.

‘By the way, I wonder if they’re okay.’

He’d gone through the trouble of booking a double room for them. Even though they weren’t exactly close now that they were older, they kept saying “No, we aren’t a couple” yet he couldn’t help but find it funny.

Cedric smiled lightly and began his search.

****************

Sugar, who had just finished her shower, came out of the bathroom. She wore white pajamas with a towel on her head, her body smelling of fresh soap.

“Riley, it’s your turn to shower.”

Having just showered, or perhaps because of the time spent thinking inside, Sugar’s mood had settled. She spoke calmly.

Her expression was rather mature. It was pure and gentle.

Her occasional grown-up and warm demeanor made her appearance seem different, especially since she was now in white pajamas, freshly showered.

Riley, without responding, headed straight to the bathroom.

Sugar, who had been watching him with fondness, listened carefully. Actually, she didn’t tilt her head deliberately; the sounds just came naturally.

The sound of clothes being removed. The sound of the shower water.

“Phew…”

Hearing that, Sugar shook her head and sighed.

Those things no longer bound her.

‘I am… Super Sugar…’

She smiled to herself, pointing her thumb at herself.

Having broken free from all the worries and weaknesses, she was now determined to embrace Riley. She couldn’t be more proud.

No matter what came her way, she could overcome it! Bring it on!

**************

“Turning off the lights.”

Everyone had finished showering and was ready for bed.

When Riley snapped his fingers, the surroundings quickly became dark.

Sugar lay on the bed, and Riley lay on the sofa. Even though Sugar had said she would lie on the sofa, Riley wasn’t the type to agree.

Soon, silence filled the room.

None of them were quite ready to sleep. It was somewhat disappointing, but there was nothing to laugh or talk about either.

The peculiar atmosphere of a man and woman in the same room, both aware of each other, made it even more awkward.

This made Sugar feel a little restless, so she gathered her courage.

“Riley, shall we sleep?”

There was something she had wanted to say, so when she spoke first, Riley responded with a simple “no.”

“I have something I want to talk about. Can I say it?”

“What is it?”

“It’s not anything strange… Just reflecting on myself? My future direction?”

“Sounds strange.”

“It’s not.”

Sugar slowly sat up.

“Well… after joining Steele, I looked back on myself, and… I think I was a bit of a troublesome person. I mean, toward you.”

“Hmm.”

“I was too clingy, or maybe I infringed on your freedom… I even took out my anger on you this morning. I’m sorry. I’ve reflected and I won’t do that again. Actually, I wanted to talk about it earlier, but the timing was off…”

This was a story she had been holding in since the afternoon.

As Sugar spoke one by one, Riley remained silent, lying on his side with his back to her only the sound of his breathing filling the air.

His attitude made Sugar feel uneasy, so she continued talking.

“Oh, you don’t have to adjust to my moods anymore. I won’t cling to you. It’s okay if you talk to other girls. You can do whatever you want, Riley.”

“…Do whatever I want?”

“Yeah. We’re not exactly just ordinary friends, so I became obsessed… Yeah, I was obsessed. I thought of you more specially than others, but I shouldn’t have. We’re adults…”

“…”

“But I think I relied on you too much. I wasn’t very mature… But now, I’ll be stronger. I’ll be the one who embraces you. I won’t obsess over you. If you want to leave, I’ll let you go anytime… So, you don’t have to worry about me anymore.”

“…”

“I’m going to make up my mind. I don’t like you not being by my side, but I hate it more if your freedom is restricted because of me. I’ll become stronger so that one day, if you disappear, it’s okay. After graduating from Steele, I’ll make sure you can go around freely.”

“…”

“I’ll throw away the weak desire to rely on you…”

“…”

As she saw the man continuing to remain silent, Sugar exhaled. Riley must need time to organize his thoughts, or maybe he just didn’t have anything to say.

It didn’t matter. Anyway, she had conveyed her true feelings. That was enough. She had alleviated her anxiety. The idea was for her to be his family—his sister, his mother. She could accept even this.

“I’ve said everything. Thanks for listening. Good night.”

Sugar whispered and then lay back down on the bed.

Actually, she was about to lie down.

Without her noticing, Riley had moved close to the bed.

“Uh… Do you have something you want to say? Feel free to say it.”

Riley climbed onto the bed without a word. The mattress tilted as he matched his weight, and a creaking sound followed.

“Ra… Riley?”

In the blink of an eye, she was pinned beneath him.

Riley was now on top of Sugar, his blue eyes looking angry.

“Why are you suddenly…?”

Sugar asked, clutching her chest. Her voice trembled. Her heart was pounding from being overwhelmed by his large body, her face flushed with embarrassment.

Riley looked down at her and moved his fingers. Drawing a line horizontally along Sugar’s collarbone, he opened his mouth.

“Wish card.”

“…Huh?”

“Right now, at this time, here, on top. Let me use it however I want.”

A wish card.

Let him use it freely above her collarbone.

Sugar’s lips quivered. She never expected the wish card to be used like this at this moment.

What did he plan to do? Why was he suddenly acting like this?

Was there something wrong with what she said earlier? She was full of questions, but Riley didn’t seem to care about them.

“I’ll do it.”

“Wait, wait. What exactly are you planning… Is it something weird…?”

“Who knows.”

Sugar rolled her eyes, watching Riley, who was leaning in close, speaking softly.

Her eyes blinked rapidly. She opened and closed her mouth, and then, as though making up her mind, she lowered her gaze.

“…You don’t have to use the wish card. It’s okay… you can do it.”

After all, she wanted to do something for him. Muttering softly, Sugar shut her eyes tightly.

From the other side, she heard a sigh, “Ha… Sugar…”

Soon, Riley’s breath reached her ear. Then the sound of a kiss followed.

Recently, he had been teasing her ears like this, so this wasn’t entirely unexpected. She didn’t feel bad about it. It was a ticklish sensation, the affection conveyed through her ears. Oh, actually, it was… hmm, hmm.

Sugar relaxed into the familiar act. She even tilted her head slightly to let Riley enjoy himself more comfortably.

‘What should I do about the moans…’

It would be more fun if there were a reaction, but right now, she’s was too embarrassed to make a sound. When a certain spot was stimulated, a sharp “Ah!” escaped her lips, but for the most part, she was able to hold it in.

And when she makes those sounds, it feels like she’s doing something wrong. Something she shouldn’t be doing.

But Riley doesn’t think that way. It’s a foolish misunderstanding. The huge misunderstanding and embarrassment she felt before entering the dorm room earlier are now gone.

She decided to become more mature, more accepting.

Right now, Riley is just playing around. Without any ulterior motives, he just wants to tease her.

She doesn’t know why he suddenly felt this way, but she’ll go along with it.

“Huu…”

Then, his breath touched a sensitive part of her ear. He followed it up with a kiss. As his lips brushed against her earlobe, a loud, wet sound echoed in her ear. Sugar’s body trembled, the sensation shot through her brain, making her waist twitch.

Perhaps satisfied with that reaction, Riley let out a breath and pulled his lips away from her ear.

Is it over now? Sugar gently released her grip on the man’s back.

As if finding it amusing, the other person let out a scoff.

“…Huh?”

In her dazed state, a new sensation immediately took hold of her ear.

Something hot and wet touched her ear, different from lips. Much stickier and much hotter.

“Ah, wait, right now, that…!”

Sugar tried to push Riley’s chest away but stopped herself. Even though he didn’t use his wish card, she decided to let it slide as if he had.

Soon, the man’s tongue leisurely pressed against her earlobe. He licked it as if pressing down, then gently nibbled it with his teeth.

“Ah, uh…”

As the wet sounds continued, Sugar’s body jerked, and Riley slipped his hand between the bed and her waist. He gently stroked her slender waist.

“Huh…!”

The hand rubbing along her spine was tender. Tender, yet frightening. Every time that large hand moved up and down, her lower abdomen grew heavier. She had felt it occasionally before, but today it was particularly intense.

The unfamiliar sensation was strange.

Even amidst this, he didn’t stop caressing her ear. The tongue that had been licking her earlobe soon entered her ear canal, persistently scraping the inner walls. The sticky, relentless movements numbed her brain.

The occasional touch of his hot breath making her eyes glaze over.

“Ah… Huh…”

The thought of holding back her moans had long disappeared. Her rationality was fading, and she couldn’t tell what was what. Buried in the man’s scent, all she could do was cling to his broad back and whimper, “Ah, ah…”

“Riley… This is weird… I feel weird… Stop, please, ah, uh—”

When Sugar pleaded, Riley simply called her name. Even as he licked her ear, he occasionally whispered, “Sugar, Sugar.” It sounded like there was affection in his voice, or perhaps he was holding back anger. Despite the ambiguous nuance, his low, calm voice was pleasant to hear and Sugar let out soft moans.

As time passed, her body felt like it was melting. At the same time, something seemed to be flowing through her lower abdomen, waist, and spine. The sensation felt like it was about to burst.

When she fidgeted, unsure of what to do, Riley soothed her by stroking her waist.

Then, he pulled his lips away from her ear. His lips soon moved to her neck.

“Ah…!”

The sensation of being sucked hard. Sugar’s eyes widened.

This. Right now…

The moment she realized what he was doing, her chest felt like it would explode.

“Ah… Ah…”

As she moaned, not knowing what to do, Riley moved his face to the other side. And again, he pressed his lips to her neck, “Chu, chu, chu.”

He unbuttoned one of Sugar’s pajama buttons, leaving marks on her delicate collarbone. Red marks bloomed on her white skin. True to his earlier words, he didn’t go any lower.

“Huh… Huh…”

Sugar eventually melted under the series of actions. Sticky and melted, she couldn’t regain her senses.

As she placed her hand on the back of Riley’s head, her moans seemed to beg for more.

At that moment.

Riley stopped.

The kisses he had been showering on her neck, the hand stroking her waist—everything abruptly ended.

“…?”

With an expression no different from usual, he got out of the bed. Calm and composed. He wiped his glistening lips with a tissue and simply covered Sugar with the blanket.

“R-Riley?”

Sugar, her body feeling somehow pitiful, struggled to sit up. Riley casually said,

“It’s over. Sleep well.”

Over?

Just like that?

There’s no way she can sleep properly now. After a light farewell, he swiftly left the room.

“…”

After sitting in a daze for a while, Sugar got out of bed and headed to the bathroom. And the reflection in the mirror was truly unsettling.

Her eyes were glazed, her cheeks bright red… Honestly, even to her own eyes, she looked like a lewd woman standing there.

Her neck was covered in vivid kiss marks.

“Ah, ah.”

The shame of having cried out in such a sharp voice.

The anger at the actions that crossed the line.

“Ah… Ahhh.”

And a little bit of disappointment.

But still, she had to accept all of this.

A mix of thoughts and emotions tangled together, making her head heat up again.

“Ah, ahhh!!”

Just a few hours ago, she thought she had thrown away her worries, thinking, ‘I’m super-duper Sugar…’ But now, her head was already spinning, and she finally exploded.

Riley… I didn’t know you had it in you… and he still has the Wish card… also Ianne is right, she really is a Perverted Sugar
