Chapter 151: You’re not gagging?

It was an early morning when the sun hadn’t fully risen yet. Normally, I wouldn’t have woken up at this hour, but today, for some reason, my eyes opened unusually early.

I could vaguely guess the reason.

‘Prayer, I want to do it again.’

Since I prayed to the goddess yesterday, my heart, which had always been heavy, felt a lot lighter.

Of course, my sins hadn’t disappeared.

I would never forget what I had done.

However, the fact that the goddess was listening to me brought me comfort.

I now understood why people follow religions.

The faith I was feeling for the first time brought an indescribable excitement. I had never imagined that believing in someone could bring such great joy.

Carrying this excited heart, I stepped outside in my pajamas.

My room was not far from Lillian’s bedroom.

I hadn’t taken many steps, but before I knew it, I was standing in front of her room.

Knock, knock.

I knocked carefully, but there was no response.

Well, it was still early, so it was understandable.

“I want to pray quickly…”

I quietly muttered, tapping my fingertips. I thought about going to the temple alone, but I hadn’t memorized the path completely, so I decided against it.

“Lillian, I’m coming in…”

I decided to wake Lillian up.

After all, there’s nothing wrong with waking up early.

Since Lillian was a diligent person, she probably wouldn’t dislike being woken up at this hour.

I carefully opened the door and stepped inside. Lillian’s bedroom had an atmosphere as luxurious as my own.

Lillian was sleeping quietly on the bed.

But for some reason, she looked like she was in great pain.

I cautiously reached out and touched her forehead. Thankfully, she didn’t seem to have a fever.

‘Could she be having a nightmare…?’

I decided to wake her up.

“Lillian…”

I softly called her name while gently shaking her shoulder.

However, there was no sign of her waking up, and the pain on her face seemed to deepen.

“…I’m sorry.”

Lillian murmured in her sleep. Her face was becoming paler, and my heart began to race with anxiety.

“Lil, Lillian…”

I couldn’t wait any longer.

My body moved instinctively, and I climbed on top of her, gripping both of her shoulders and shaking her strongly.

“Lillian!”

“Ugh, huh?”

After several attempts, Lillian finally opened her eyes. Her pinkish eyes looked at me in confusion.

“…Tina?”

“Y-You’re awake, Lillian…”

Lillian slowly scanned me from top to bottom with dazed eyes.

And then I realized that I was still on top of her.

My bottom was on Lillian’s waist, and my hands were tightly gripping her shoulders.

It was quite an awkward position.

I must have been so distracted by the thought of waking her up that I didn’t even realize what kind of position I was in.

Now that the situation had dawned on me, my face turned bright red.

In an attempt to ease the awkwardness, I quickly spoke up.

“Ah, I think you were having a nightmare.”

Just as I was about to slowly rise and get off, the moment had come.

“…!”

Lillian’s two hands firmly gripped both sides of my waist.

“Ugh…”

A sudden wave of tension spread through my body. Lillian’s strength was several times stronger than mine, and as she suddenly grabbed me, I couldn’t move an inch.

She slowly moved her arms while holding my waist.

Swish—Swish—

With the subtle movements, my waist swayed back and forth. My body gently shifted away from her chest and then was pulled back in, causing Lillian’s stomach and my lower body to rub together.

An awkward energy lingered in the quiet bedroom.

“…Lillian?”

“I had a dream that I was on the frontlines.”

My heart sank. It was I who had sent her to the battlefield.

“Many people died. I suppose there are still those I couldn’t save left in my heart.”

“I’m… I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…”

I bowed deeply, repeating with a trembling voice. It felt as though a heavy, iron weight of guilt was pressing down on my body.

“No, it’s not just that people die. There were many I saved on the battlefield as well. In a way, that’s probably all thanks to Tina.”

Lillian spoke in a calm voice to comfort me, but unfortunately, her words didn’t reach me.

My mind was already completely consumed by guilt.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I was wrong…”

“Tina.”

I couldn’t stop the words from slipping out. I couldn’t even hold my trembling body upright.

Lillian stared at me for a while with a complex expression before, with an angry look, she ran her hand through my hair, pushing it back.

“Are you really sorry?”

Her voice was low and cold.

“I’m sorry… I… I was wrong—.”

“Then you should be punished.”

In an instant, my body was lightly lifted. Lillian threw me onto the bed as though she were tossing me, and then immediately pressed down on me with her entire body.

I could hardly breathe.

“Hey.”

A single word of command.

I reflexively looked up at her voice.

“L-Lillian?”

Slap—!

Lillian’s palm struck my cheek. The pain rang in my ear, and my face turned to the side.

“I told you to call me ‘Sister.’”

Looking down at me with oppressive eyes, I felt as though everything about me had been stripped bare.

“S-Sister…”

I called her with a trembling voice.

I didn’t want to go against her mood.

No, I couldn’t go against it.

“Hah, now that I think about it, you’re really shameless.”

Lillian swept my hair to the side.

“You’ve been tempting me like this since the morning, huh? Answer me, you bitch.”

“What… bitch? I didn’t—.”

Slap—!

“Ah?!”

With a bitter pain, my cheek turned once again.

“You said you were going to be punished, right?”

As if knocking before entering a room, Lillian’s fingers lightly tapped my lips.

Although I was confused by the sudden situation, something clicked.

Somehow, my body was no longer trembling from guilt. Lillian’s overwhelming force seemed to crush even my guilt.

Had Lillian known all along?

“I, I’ll… accept the punishment, Sister…”

Lillian’s eyes trembled slightly. She bit her own lip, then brought two fingers to my lips.

“Open.”

There was no option to refuse. As I gently parted my lips, Lillian’s two fingers slipped inside.

“Ah, eh, eup…!”

Lillian’s fingers explored my mouth.

Squelch— squelch—

They tugged at my tongue, swept across the roof of my mouth, and occasionally delved deep to touch my uvula.

“You’re not gagging?”

Lillian asked me. Even as my mouth was being probed, I managed to answer her.

“I, I don’t… gag easily… when something enters…”

“…So you don’t gag no matter what goes in?”

“Ye, yes…”

It had been like that since my past life.

From a young age, I was so starved that I would devour any food in sight without hesitation.

As a result, at some point, my body became accustomed to swallowing even large or rough food without gagging.

Though I still felt discomfort when things came up from below, at least there was no issue with things going down.

Lillian, who had been staring at me blankly, suddenly pushed her fingers deeper into my mouth with a somewhat angry expression.

“What kind of body is that?! It’s just like a bitch’s body!”

“Gek?!”

Lillian’s hand forced its way into my mouth. Her long middle finger pressed against my uvula and slid down my throat.

“Gek?! Euk…!”

The sudden shock made my vision blur. But Lillian didn’t stop, her fingers continued to probe deep inside my throat.

As her fingers tightly blocked my esophagus, my breathing gradually became restricted.

Before I knew it, her fingers were tickling the area near my larynx.

Squelch— squelch—

The sound of her fingers ravaging my mouth echoed in my head.

“Gek, euk, kuk…!”

Though I didn’t gag, the lack of proper breathing caused strange sounds to escape me.

“Ha, you really don’t gag.”

Lillian, who had been staring at me with a fierce gaze, moved her fingers one last time, tickling the inside of my throat.

When she finally pulled her hand out, an unbelievable amount of saliva connected her fingers to my mouth like a spider’s web.

“Kehek! Haak! Hauuk…!”

I gasped for air, trying to steady my ragged breathing. As my mind began to clear, I managed to smile again.

“Ha, have you… finished punishing me…?”

I smiled faintly at Lillian, but my face turned red as drool dripped from the corners of my mouth.

“……”

The heat in Lillian’s eyes still hadn’t subsided.

But she let out a deep sigh and carefully helped me up.

“I’m sorry for making you suffer, Tina.”

“Oh, no. It was punishment, after all.”

“…Tina.”

“Yes?”

“If it’s okay with you, would you like to receive punishment again tomorrow?”

I blinked at the sudden suggestion.

“Pu, punishment?”

“Yes, I think it might help ease your guilt.”

I hesitated for a moment, but eventually nodded slightly. Hearing my answer, Lillian smiled softly and reached out her hand to me.

“Shall we go pray now?”

“I grabbed her hand without hesitation.

‘Yes!’

It’s time to offer a prayer to the revered goddess.

The moment I had been waiting for all day has come.”
