Ch. 89: According To The Princess, If You Don’t Have The Card, Why Don’t You Give Up Reason?

I left the diner and came to Kisaragi’s house.
Iori and Aoi were going to hang out in the shopping district in front of the station before going home. An after-school date, I guess. I really envy these young people.

As I was walking up the stairs of Kisaragi’s house and down the hallway, I received a message on my phone.
I looked at the message and saw it was Aoi.
We had exchanged emails on the messaging app after finishing our parfait at the diner.

“Souta Nii-chan-san. Thank you for the food today.”

Ooh, you’re such a polite girl.
That was what I thought, and as I was about to reply to the message, I suddenly realized.

Aoi must be with Iori right now.
Maybe she wanted to thank me when they were taking a break on the bench.

However, the fact that she sent the message with Iori by her side indicated that…

“Fufufu… I see… That’s how it is. Goodness, as my sister-in-law, you don’t have to thank your Onii-chan.”

Realizing her intentions, I quickly returned the message.
The three of us had created a group in the app, so Iori could see our conversation.

“It’s okay. I heard that there is a family restaurant in the next town that has Riverbrow Parfait.
“Eh, Riverbrow!? That sounds really good for the liver!”

Just as I thought, Aoi immediately got on board.
She was not surprised to learn that I had said something about a Riverblow parfait, which she didn’t understand.

“Are you interested?”
“Yes, I am! But…I bet it is expensive, isn’t it?”

“Don’t be silly. You don’t have to worry about your wallet. It’s on me, of course.”
“Eh~, what should I do? But I’d like to see the Riverblow, so maybe…we’ll go together?”

As soon as Aoi showed signs that she was about to go for it, Iori instantly cut in.
I had been patiently watching what was going on, but it seemed like he finally couldn’t take it anymore.

“I’ll buy you one! You don’t have to ask Souta Nii-chan! For Aoi-chan, I, as her boyfriend, will buy her it!”

That’s it!
Yes, he used “as her boyfriend”!

I writhe in the middle of the hallway.
Aoi was probably writhing in the best way possible right now. Since Iori himself must be next to her, it must have been very impactful.

…Ah, how nice this is.
It was also a new sensation. If Iori had said to me, “Souta, you’re not my brother anymore,” I wouldn’t have been able to recover for three days, but now I’m completely unaffected. I’d rather tease Iori more.

Well, it would be a pity if I suddenly overdid it.
That should be about it for today.

I ended the conversation by sending her the “Corkscrew-chan” stamp that I got at the family restaurant earlier. It was a stamp you can only get if you try the parfait.

I sent her a stamp with “You’re welcome…” from Corkscrew-chan, who lost the judgment.

Aoi immediately replied with a stamp of Corkscrew-chan walking into the sunset, saying, “Let’s have a rematch sooner or later.”

Iori sent a stamp of Corkscrew-chan in a fighting pose, “Mukki!”

…After all this time, what the hell is Corkscrew-chan?

Well, whatever.
I have to face the problem at hand soon.

I looked at Yuika’s room.
I took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

“Yuika. I-I’m here!”

Ah no, I bit my lip from the start.
I was a little bummed, but I went into the room.

“…W-Welcome, Souta.”

Yuika bit her lip as well
I think the tension between us had a synergistic effect.

“Umm, you’re late today?”
“Yeah, sorry. I took a little detour.”

Yuika was unusually sitting at her study desk. There was a laptop on the desk, so she must have been playing a game or writing a novel.

But for some reason, she was facing the window.
She was twisting her hips as hard as she could and using her entire body to look away from me.

…Should I say, “Why are you looking at the day after tomorrow?” No, that would be a bad idea…

This was where I should be cautious.
Yesterday, I was about to touch Yuika’s chest. …But Iori came back halfway through and interrupted us. After that, the awkwardness exploded.

It was not unreasonable for Yuika to become suspicious of my behavior.
In fact, if I poke her in the wrong way, the awkwardness could explode in a chain reaction. At this point, I had to proceed with caution as if I were playing shogi and get the usual atmosphere back.

Yuika was probably thinking the same thing.
She was still showing the back of her head to me as much as she can, but she was trying to make conversation as usual.

“A detour, then, could it be that you have a gift to bring back to Yuika-chan…meow?”

The “meow” at the end was very high-pitched.
It sounded forced, not like Yuika’s normal kitten attribute.

I held my head in silence.
Yeah, right, if I had a prepaid card as a gift here, I could handle it.

But it was not here.
That money has been swallowed up in the twisting vortex of the Corkscrew.

“…Ah, that. No…gift.”
“Eh, no? Why did you take a detour?”
“…I just had a parfait with Iori.”
“You’re useless.”
“I’m ashamed.”

It was unreasonable for her to treat me as a useless person just because I don’t have any gifts.
But this time, because of the circumstances, she was completely right.

I put down my school bag and hung my blazer on the hanger.
Then.

“I-If that’s the case…then you can’t help it.”

Yuika sighed, somewhat ostentatiously.

She shrugged her shoulders, her body was facing the window.

“Then massage my shoulders as punishment.”
“Catacombe…? Is that the underground cemetery where the demons are sealed up?
“That’s catacombs. You don’t know what “underground cemetery as punishment” means.”

“No, I thought I was going to be buried as a clay figurine as a penalty for not buying a card.”
The Souta figure would look interesting, so it’s not a bad thought, but there doesn’t seem to be any wifi in the tomb, so no thanks for my grave.”
“You don’t have any doubts about being buried as royalty…”

That’s the selfish princess I’m talking about.
But as the recluse of the recluses, Yuika, was a creature that has nothing to do with stiffness.

The last time I tried to massage her, she was so squishy that it made me shiver.

“Ah. I bet Souta has a face of, ‘you’re not stiff.’ How rude.”
“No, you can’t see my face. You’re not looking at me.”
“I don’t have to look at you to know.”

Yeah, I could see her puffy cheeks too.
Even without looking at her, it was obvious that she have become like a hamster.
Yuika tapped her desk.

“I was writing a novel at my desk today, and my shoulders got stiff. They’re so stiff that they feel like fresh water from rocks.”
“I know you want to say they’re stiff like rocks, but freshwater from rocks is water that comes out of rocks, right? That’s because there’s too much stiffness and it’s rather liquefied, right?”

“Enough, h-u-r-r-y u-p!”
“Aye aye.”

I went to her study desk, not even bothering to tweak it.
I don’t know what she was thinking, but I put my hands on her shoulders anyway.

They are pleasantly soft.
I knew she wasn’t stiff in the slightest.

But I didn’t care about that anymore.
The moment I touched her, Yuika’s body jumped, so much so that it no longer mattered.

“Nyan—!?”
“Haa!? Yuika!?”

I peeked at her in surprise.
And then I was even more astonished.

Her pajamas were open to the second button.
Thanks to that, I could see her full cleavage.

In addition, her F-cup was swaying left and right as she jumped.

The supercomputer in my brain instantly grasped the situation.
No bra!
And I’ve never seen a no bra without the second button open!

“Yuika, why are you dressed so unprotected…?”

The supercomputer continued to run, asking in a hoarse voice.

The reason why she was looking towards the day after tomorrow was probably that her chest was in this state.
There was nothing but sky beyond the window, so there was no problem with the neighbors.

Moreover, Yuika’s face was already inflamed.
The vermilion on her pure white skin made her look inexplicably erotic.

“Because it can’t be helped…Souta won’t buy me a prepaid card.”

She lays her hand on my hand on her shoulder.
I salivated.

Okay, that meant…Yuika was also thinking of a way to deal with the awkwardness explosion.

The way to do this was to resume what was interrupted yesterday when Iori came home.

If I had bought a billing card, that would be fine. All she had to do was turn her back to me, put on a button, and put on an indifferent face.

But I didn’t buy a card because I ate a parfait. …And this was the result.

“…A-Are you sure?”
“Of what?”
“Of what…don’t open up your chest like that, or else I’ll touch you.”
“…You can do whatever you want. …Souta’s perverted.”

She turned her head away, looking embarrassed.
Ah my god, she’s the cutest thing ever. The best in the world, not to mention the Corkscrew.

But…I wonder if it was because I teased Iori earlier.
The prankster’s heart swelled and I raised her head, wanting to say something I didn’t have to.

“Hey, Yuika. I was wondering if…”

The hands that touched each other were very hot.
It was not the kind of body heat that can be generated in the last couple of minutes when I walk in.

“…You’ve been thinking about me touching you since yesterday?”
“—!”

Her cheeks, which were already tinged with vermilion, turned even redder. It was as if I had hit the nail on the head.
Her eyes are now teary.

“…Mou, you promised not to say that.”
“I’m afraid I made no such promise.”
“I-I can’t help it! Because, because…”

Yuika scrunched herself up with her free hand.
Her unprotected chest were pushed up further.

“I was so nervous yesterday that I thought my heart was going to break because I thought I might finally get a serious Souta to touch me. But we were interrupted…That doesn’t mean I can sleep anymore. I’ve been thinking about this all morning, and I just can’t help myself…”

I’m getting dizzy just listening to her.
But Yuika’s words continue.
Because, she said, hugging herself more.

“I’ve decided to leave all the naughty stuff to Souta!　That’s why I couldn’t do anything myself…”
“Yuika…”
“I’ve been going crazy since this morning…?”

Squeezing my hand tightly, Yuika looked up at me.
Then she asked me to do something.

Her eyes were moist as if they were already at their limit.
As if clinging to me.

 

“My body’s hot. Help me, Souta…”

 

The supercomputer exploded.
It was broken into fragments.

Ah, I can’t do this anymore.
I don’t know how I could stand it when the woman I love said something so erotic and cute.
In fact, I have no intention of putting up with it.

In the midst of the blazing fire, Reason-san reached out his hand to me.
You can finish now, he said.

The miracle of yesterday descended on me again.
Reason-san, who was on the verge of ascending to the heavens, and Instinct-san, which has been sealed in a cage, have joined hands.
Reason and instinct become one, and point me to the road.

I’ve decided.
I’m going to push her down.

“Yuika—!”

Little Red Riding Hood was right in front of me.
There was no need to dive anymore. The wolf decided to make a mess of it and stretched out his arms.

Thank you for everything, Mr. Reason.
Thanks for keeping me waiting, instinct.
Then…I’ll show you the back of a happy ending, Aoi.

“—Ah,”

But the next moment, something unexpected happened.
Yuika’s face instantly turned serious.

“I can smell other girls from Souta.”
“Heh? What are you talking about—Fugee!?”

When I was on the verge of kissing her, her laptop was held up like a shield.
With all the momentum I had built up, I crashed into her. I crumpled to the floor in front of the bed.

Haa, my nose felt flattened…but that’s not the point.
My instincts were telling me.

The current has turned was turning to a really bad direction.

“Souta~?”
“W-What is it…?”
“The Inquisition is on now♪”

A very scary smile.
No, an Inquisition is a capital offense!
