Chapter 45: Now, You Won’t Have to Think About Anything

Splash-

Water poured down.

Warm water drenched Lucy’s head, cleansing it.

I gently washed Lucy’s head, who was shyly wiggling her tail.

Why was she so embarrassed?

Her face was completely red, and she lowered her head.

She looked like a little child embarrassed in front of an adult.

“Haa… Washing with warm water makes me feel refreshed…”

Then, as if asking to be looked at too.

Scarlett hugged me tightly from behind and acted spoiled.

Her behavior was different from usual, which was cute.

I giggled and gave her cheek a short kiss.

There was a floral scent in the bathroom that I couldn’t smell before.

“If you’re done washing up, let’s get inside.”

Scarlett suggested.

I had finished washing my body earlier, and I had just finished washing Lucy’s body too.

We slowly entered the spacious bathtub.

The bathtub was large, and thanks to Lucy’s small size, all three of us could enjoy the bathtub.

“Hooaa..”

Lucy let out a very cute sound.

Her appearance was so lovely that I hugged Lucy’s small body tightly.

But she seemed quite jealous.

Scarlett forcibly wedged herself between us.

Then she wrapped her arm around my neck and hugged me tightly.

I looked at Scarlett, slightly flustered.

She smiled a foxy smile and kissed my lips.

“Hnng..”

My vulva seemed to react to the intimate physical contact.

I moaned faintly and panted.

As if to show off, Scarlett smiled at Lucy.

Should I call it childish, or possessive?

Despite that, Lucy hugged Scarlett’s back tightly without complaint.

‘Both are cute…’

Scarlett, who squeezed between us to steal my affection, and Lucy, who happily hugged Scarlett.

Both were so cute that I couldn’t help myself.

But it felt a bit much to have sex.

We had sex so intensely last night, and then again this morning after waking up.

Scarlett’s experience of receiving cunnilingus from Lucy while kissing me was quite novel.

I splashed the water and enjoyed the floral-scented bath.

The shower ended soon.

As I stepped out of the bathroom, a cool breeze brushed against my cheek.

We roughly dried ourselves and then lay naked on the bed.

After all, no one ever came into Scarlett’s room.

Perhaps it was because we had sex so intensely this morning.

For some reason, I felt sleepy.

“Haaahm..”

I yawned lazily and closed my eyes.

Scarlett chuckled and covered me with a blanket.

It’s strange. I’m so sleepy.

My heavy eyelids closed on their own, and I felt like my body was floating.

Then, with a *flick* and a spark, as if a video was turning off.

I fell asleep.

****

I opened my eyes.

“Umm..”

I looked around the bright surroundings.

There was no one around. Only the empty bed and furniture.

Neither Lucy nor Scarlett.

There was no one.

“Are you awake?”

Feeling uneasy, I got up from the bed.

A familiar voice was heard right in front of me.

A man without hair, whom I hadn’t seen in weeks.

“Mister!”

I smiled broadly with immense joy.

Then, for a moment, I belatedly realized I was naked and shyly pulled the blanket to cover myself.

Ahem, ahem. I cleared my throat.

“It’s been a really long time…”

I said with a strange mix of emotion and joy.

However, the man didn’t say much.

Normally, he would have said, “It’s nice to meet you too, Young Lady!” and burst into foolish fireworks.

Nevertheless, the man’s presence was more than welcome.

I wiggled my legs slightly and said playfully.

“Where have you been all this time? Without saying anything… You never came when I called. I’m a little disappointed.”

“Were you?”

But the man didn’t seem as happy to reunite as I was.

He tilted his head, slowly clenched his fist.

Then he said in a low voice.

“…We won’t be able to meet anymore.”

“What? What are you talking about?”

Suddenly, what was he saying?

Ah. Is he playing a prank after meeting me after so long?

Really. He thinks I’ll fall for this kind of prank.

I chuckled and shook my head.

“I don’t fall for that anymore. I’ve fallen for your pranks so many times-“

“I came to say goodbye.”

“..Mister? This… isn’t funny. Stop it.”

Suddenly. The man stood up from the bed.

I also got up, following the man.

The blanket slipped off, revealing my bare skin.

But I didn’t care at all.

“It’s a prank-“

“Hehe.. You don’t need to do surprise things like that. Instead, sit here. You’ll be surprised when you hear what’s happened.”

“…Please stop.”

“Stop… what…?”

No matter how much I tried to talk, no matter how much I tried to continue talking with a smile.

The man kept cutting me off with a firm expression.

I forced a smile and grabbed the man’s chest.

“Mister. Tell me. D-don’t do this after meeting after so long. Please…”

Why are you acting like this?

Why are you saying such strange things after coming after so long?

My hands gripping his chest trembled.

“It’s time to face reality.”

“Reality..? W-what reality are you talking about… Don’t say strange things all of a sudden.”

Is this what you say when you suddenly appear?

Like before, playing pranks, chatting.

I wish you would do that.

So that the fact that you haven’t shown yourself could be something to laugh off.

I wish you would treat me warmly.

“You must come to your senses. Never be satisfied with what you see, but doubt and run away.”

“Run away..? I… I will live with the Young Lady… and Lucy… like this… always… Al-always… *sob*..”

Thump, thump.

I couldn’t continue speaking due to the chest pain.

I clutched my chest and gasped for breath.

Run away?

From what?

From Scarlett.

Young Lady? Why?

I’m happy enough as I am.

I have to escape. That’s what I’ve always wanted.

I don’t want to escape.

I made a promise.

All sorts of thoughts swirled in my head, and the chest pain intensified.

Just like when I saw the fairy’s silhouette.

“*Sob*.. Mis-ter..”

“I apologize for not being able to stay with you until the end.”

“What… are you saying…”

The man smiled.

In the blink of an eye, the man’s head returned to its place.

With a pure and clear smile, second to none.

“Thank you…”

He bowed slightly, his arms pressed against his abdomen.

“Thank you for everything.”

He said softly.

Shhhhhh-

At the same time, the surrounding scenery began to swirl wildly.

The man’s figure was slowly fading.

“Mister.. Mis-ter..”

I couldn’t open my eyes properly due to the storm.

I reached out my hand and managed to grab the man’s pants tightly.

No. Please don’t go.

The only reason I could maintain my sanity in this mansion.

Without him, I might have gone mad long ago.

But I didn’t go mad.

I suddenly remembered the first time he made a joke.

“Mister.. *sob*.. No… Please…”

The man was gradually losing his form.

The storm intensified, and the strength in my arms weakened.

When he first told me how to escape, I thought I had truly gone mad.

But his advice was accurate.

“…Even without me, you will do just fine.”

Please, don’t say that.

I looked up at the man, begging earnestly.

When I was having a hard time, when I needed someone to talk to.

When I was pushed to the brink, the warm embrace he gave me was unforgettable.

A warmth that was on a different level from Scarlett’s embrace.

Shhhhhh-

Memories of my time with the man flashed through my mind with the storm.

Setting off fireworks, exaggerating unfunny jokes.

Sometimes he only said meaningful things.

But still, all for me, he helped me.

“Mister..”

Hot tears flowed down my cheeks.

But he’s leaving like this?

I haven’t even said goodbye yet.

Rumble-

The storm gradually reached its peak, starting to grind everything away.

Destroying furniture, destroying the room.

Just as my body was about to be sucked in.

The man’s finger pressed lightly on my forehead.

He gave me a very playful expression for the last time.

“This is a gift.”

And when his hand fell from my forehead.

I felt my body float.

****

“Hiyak!!”

I gasped for breath and screamed.

As I sat up abruptly, Lucy, who was sleeping next to me, stirred and woke up.

At the same time, Scarlett also woke up.

“Ce, Cecil? What’s wrong?!”

“Hu, huuk, huuk.. *sob*.. *sob*..”

I couldn’t breathe properly.

I made choking sounds due to the sudden shortness of breath.

Scarlett, extremely panicked, patted my back.

At the same time, I felt something hot flowing down my cheeks.

It was tears.

“*Gasp*, *sob*.. Ugh.. *sob*.. Huk..”

The shortness of breath eventually stopped.

But strangely, tears flowed down.

What kind of dream was I having? I couldn’t remember clearly.

However, the extremely sad emotion was too vividly felt.

My heart felt like it was tearing apart, so painful.

I sobbed uncontrollably, my body trembling.

“*Sob*, *huk*..”

“Cecil, Cecil! C-calm down. Look at me… I’m here…”

Then Scarlett hugged me tightly and patted my back.

She was trying her best to calm me down with her soft voice.

Sharing body heat by pressing our naked bodies together.

Thanks to the physical contact with Scarlett, my trembling subsided.

But something felt like it was clearing up in the back of my mind.

‘This is…’

A faint light began to emanate from the strange symbol imprinted on the back of my hand.

The pattern was different from the one I had seen before.

It was the same as the previous pattern, with something opening its mouth.

But this time, the pattern had only two teeth.

“Come on… Cecil. Go back to sleep now. It’s a bit late, so tomorrow…”

“Aah..!”

Because of Lucy’s babbling, who was hugging my back, I couldn’t hear Scarlett’s last words.

But my mind was completely elsewhere.

The glowing symbol.

On it, a pair of very familiar fairy wings were drawn.

****

“Ummm..”

I slightly shifted my body and reached out my arm to find Scarlett’s body heat.

But I only felt the sensation of moving through empty air.

As I reached out my arm to the side, I felt something small and soft.

This time I grabbed it properly.

I hugged Lucy’s warm body and giggled while stroking her smooth horns.

Mornings that start by sharing body heat feel good.

Creak-

After enjoying Lucy for a moment, I jumped up from the bed at the sound of the door opening.

The symbol on the back of my hand was clearly engraved, proving that what happened last night was not a hallucination.

I smiled brightly and ran towards Scarlett, who had a cheerful expression.

“Young Lady!”

“You’re awake? That’s great. I have something for you.”

She smiled gently and took something out of her pocket.

It was a pill.

I nodded vigorously, thinking she would try to make me feel good with a pill again.

Lately, I hadn’t been able to take Scarlett’s pills well.

Although there was no addiction, the thought of experiencing that pleasant feeling again made my body burn.

“Quickly, give me the pill. Ahh..”

As I eagerly pleaded for the pill with my lips slightly parted.

Scarlett, as usual, put the pill in my mouth and slowly mixed her tongue with mine.

Gulp. As the pill went down.

Thump-

“Eh, ugh?”

Suddenly, my legs gave out.

I didn’t understand what was happening.

The world spun around, then stopped abruptly.

I felt like I was floating, and then…

My vulva began to feel hot.

“Ek, geek. Heeet..”

I couldn’t stop the continuous leakage from below.

When I rubbed my vulva, what came out was sticky discharge.

I tried to stand up, but stumbled and fell backward.

Thump-

Scarlett, who quickly caught me.

She whispered in my ear, looking clueless.

“It’s going to be much stronger than usual. I told you yesterday, right? It’s made with newly acquired herbs.”

“Eugh.. Ugh..”

Pfft, pfft.

As Scarlett’s breath brushed against my ear.

My back arched like a live fish, and discharge spurted out.

My sensitivity felt strange. My vulva was hot, my vulva was incredibly itchy, and my head was melting.

I felt like an idiot. I didn’t even know if what I was leaking was discharge or urine.

All I felt was happiness.

Seeing me melting away from the drug, Scarlett added a few more words.

“The drug supply has been a bit low lately… so Cecil seems to be having a hard time. I was originally planning to do this much later, but…”

Then, while hugging me, she took out something like a syringe from her pocket.

I didn’t need to be told what it was for; it was obvious.

She brought the syringe to my skin.

“I guess I have to move up the schedule. Now, you don’t have to think about anything.”

She smiled brightly.
