Chapter 49 - Riley and the Edge of Slumber (Riley ☆)
The inn only had single rooms available, so we were each assigned one. Someone had always been by my side recently. It felt like it had been a long time since I was alone. I hadn't done anything lewd in the tent during our journey, but someone was always right there. The light from the lamps in this world was faint, and the darkness was deep. I remembered thinking similar things when I first came to this world. I didn't want to be alone. I was about to follow Fam, but Mizuki glared at me. Left with no choice, I was plotting to sneak into Mizuki's room in the middle of the night and recreate the events of that one time when there was a knock on my door. I opened it to find Riley standing there.
"…Can I come in?"
"Why do you think I left you alone without restraining you? Hurry up and run. Disappear."
"Is that okay?"
"The group is split on what to do with you. The vote is two to help, three not to, and one abstention. So just get lost."
"Is letting me go everyone's idea?"
"It's my idea. The ones who said not to help won't change their minds. I'm busy. I have somewhere to be."
I tried to close the door, but she stuck her foot in the gap.
"What are you, a pushy salesman?!"
"I don't know what you're talking about, but just let me in."
Riley pushed past me and entered the room. She strode confidently over to the room's only chair and sat down. I had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed. This was incredibly awkward. I wanted to get to Mizuki's room as soon as possible.
"I want you to save Emma."
"My life would be in danger if I did that. I've never even met the guy, but I have a good impression of Ito. In the first place, why did you even pick a fight with us?"
"Emma is a transferant. She has a mission to defeat the transferants summoned by the Five Goddesses."
I see. So it's the same setup as the mythological war. In that case, we had four allied groups, which meant we could end up fighting as many as forty-five groups of transferants. And the people summoned didn't even have the same starting line. Powerful individuals like Aidan could appear as enemies. This was unbearable, far beyond just defeating some Demon Lord. I couldn't do this. This was a total breach of contract. Did Racshell really think we could win under these rules?
"You can't just drop something that unreasonable on me like it's normal. Give me one good reason why the Five Goddesses' transferants have to be killed."
"I… wasn't told."
"You picked a fight with me and Fam at the bell tower based on just that? You're the worst!"
Just listening to her was pissing me off. Fam should have been able to enjoy that day to the very end.
"I'm sorry."
"Apologize to Fam! If she forgives you, I'll hear you out."
I pointed to the door, telling her to leave. But Riley didn't move.
"I directed my killing intent at you. That dog-eared girl would never forgive me."
"Huh? Dog-eared? Who are you talking about?"
I was overcome with the urge to punch her. But in a fistfight, I would definitely lose.
"…My bad. I didn't realize that was your berserk button. So, I'll strip right now. Do whatever you want with me. Think of it as my way of thanking you for today. And just because you have me doesn't mean I'll expect you to help save Emma."
Riley stood up and began to undress.
"…Huh?"
I couldn't keep up with her sudden change in thinking.
Riley stripped off her clothes one by one, her eyes fixed on me. Her brown skin was revealed bit by bit. She already wore revealing clothes, but as each piece of fabric disappeared, my eyes were drawn to what lay beneath.
"…Are you a prostitute?"
"I may be acting like this, but I'm actually a virgin. Teach me about men."
She was completely naked. Her glistening brown skin, a supple body different from the muscular Avea. Upon her chest were two firm, twin mounds, tipped with pink buds.
"Liar."
"Put yours inside me. You'll know."
Riley smiled.
"If you're good, I'll be your woman."
She took my arm and made me touch her breast. It was certainly a handful.
"Can you feel my heart? It's the life you saved. And this beat is racing with excitement at the thought of you taking me."
I couldn't take it anymore. The next thing I knew, I had thrown my arms around her and pushed her down onto the bed. I sucked on her lips, seeking her tongue. Riley didn't resist, offering her tongue to me. We tangled our tongues together, craving each other's lips.
After some time, our lips parted.
"Heh, you're easy," Riley laughed.
"Shut up. You too."
I slid my hand down to her crotch, scooped up her arousal, and showed her the sticky fluid.
"If you're really a virgin, you must masturbate way too much."
"Shut up. You get naked too!"
She started pulling at my clothes. I moved with her hands, making it easier for her to undress me. I was naked. Her gaze fell to my crotch.
"So that's a man's. And that's going inside me…"
I was already hard with excitement.
"I'll give you a blowjob. I know the theory."
Riley grasped me and began to slide her hand up and down. It was a little rough and hurt, but it felt good. Then, she brought her lips to the head and kissed it.
"Teach me how to make you feel good. When you're about to come, you can do whatever you want. On my face, in my mouth."
With those words, she took me into her mouth. I disappeared into Riley's mouth. She gagged slightly once but managed to take me all the way to the base. Then, she began to move.
"Ugh!"
A groan escaped my lips from the pleasure. She looked up at me, as if checking my reaction.
"Tighter. Use your tongue, too."
I grabbed her head and urged her on. The feeling of wanting to cum quickly intensified. I hadn't done it since we left Richelle. I pulled back slightly. Noticing my excitement, she sucked harder, as if to corner me.
I held back, but eventually, I reached my limit.
"Riley, I'm gonna cum. In your mouth."
She kept stroking, her eyes locked on mine. I held her head down as I reached her deepest point. And I came. My cock throbbed again and again, pouring my seed into her. After I finished, I let go of her head. Her mouth pulled away from me. She coughed violently, spilling some of my semen.
"Sorry. I was going to swallow it all, but there was more than I expected and I choked."
"I pushed you, but you don't have to force yourself."
"Heh, what an impossible demand."
I embraced her and pushed her down on the bed again.
"I heard it takes a while for a man to be ready again after he cums once. Are you okay?"
"That's true. So this time, I'm going to make you cum."
I spread Riley's legs. Her wide-open sex was visible.
"This position is, as expected, embarrassing."
"You finally said something feminine."
"I've always been a woman!"
I took out my smartphone and took a picture of her naked body.
"Hey, that's a camera, isn't it? Stop that."
She covered her face in embarrassment. Taking pictures of someone who's resisting is exciting.
"You know what this is? Did Emma take pictures of you?"
"Yeah, though I can't look at them anymore."
Emma isn't an adventurer, so she can't use storage. Her battery probably died.
I touched Riley's crotch. It was wet all over. She must be excited by the situation. I parted her folds and searched for her clitoris. I found the swelling easily. I stroked it gently.
"Aahh…"
A moan escaped her lips. Once I confirmed it was sufficiently swollen, I switched to teasing it with my tongue.
"Ahh, Mash, that feels so good…"
While licking her strongly and quickly, I moved my fingers back and forth between her vaginal opening and her anus, heightening her anticipation.
"Mash, this is better than doing it myself… The thought of you seeing everything, licking me, it's so exciting… Ahh…"
I pushed my fingers into her vagina. They were squeezed tightly, but thanks to her wetness, they slid in smoothly. Then, I assailed her with my tongue and fingers.
"Ugh… Aahh, I'm coming, I'm going to cum, aahhhh!"
Riley lay there limply, as if in a daze. I pushed myself between her legs and pressed my erection against her. Riley watched my actions with a vacant expression.
"What is it?" I asked, bothered by her stare.
"Nothing, I just never thought my first time would be with an old guy like this."
"This is what you wanted."
"It is. That's why I won't forget your face. And I want you to never forget me like this, underneath you. I mean that from the bottom of my heart."
She stressed that it was from her heart. Just as she thought, I was suspicious of her. But even that suspicion felt like it was about to melt away in this act.
"Alright, I'm putting it in."
"Please."
If she was going to ask, I had no choice. I sank myself into her vagina.
"Mash, it hurts a little. A little slower, please."
"Yeah, got it."
"And… keep looking at my face."
I stared at her and pressed our lips together. She clung to it, sending her tongue into my mouth. I responded, sucking on her tongue.
"Mash, my hand…"
I took her hand. From its heat, I could feel her pain, her arousal, her desire, her anticipation—all of her emotions flowing into me. I felt my own emotions flow out and mingle with hers. I intertwined our fingers to transmit them deeper, stronger. Eventually, I was fully inside her.
"Ugh…" A moan echoed.
"It's all in."
"So it seems. Pleasure and pain are rising up at the same time. Please wait a moment before you move."
I waited for Riley's expression to relax. It was maddening. I wanted to start thrusting and see her moaning face.
"…It's okay now. Try pulling out once."
I pulled back, and my member slid out of her. It was stained with blood.
"See? I was a virgin. You're the only one who gets to see that," Riley laughed.
"Move however you want. I want to satisfy you."
Riley wrapped her arms around my body and hugged me close. I thrust my penis back inside her and began to pump.
"Ah, ah, ah…"
She moaned and writhed in time with my hips. Sweat beaded on her brown skin, making it glisten even more.
"You have a beautiful body."
I caressed her skin and kneaded her breasts. I pinched her nipples, rolling them between my fingers, and when they hardened, I sucked on them.
"Mash, that feels good. Touch me more. Suck me more."
She hugged me tighter, as if to hold me. I bit down a little harder.
"Aow!"
She arched her back with a particularly large writhe. I moved my tongue from her nipple to her neck, then sucked on her lips, tangling our tongues and exchanging saliva.
"Mash, the pleasure is driving me crazy."
"I'm about to come, too."
"Do it inside me. All of it. Give me all of it!"
"Yeah, I'll give it to you."
I quickened my pace. Then, I aimed for her deepest part and came. My penis throbbed again and again, shooting my seed deep inside Riley.
"Aaahh!"
Riley held me tight, accepting my seed. Then, we collapsed onto the bed, exhausted.
A pleasant fatigue made my body feel weightless. I was on the verge of falling asleep, feeling the warmth of Riley lying next to me.
"Now, I'm your woman," Riley said.
"Yeah…" I nodded.
"So this is what it feels like to be with someone."
She sought my lips. I fought off my drowsiness and responded. As our tongues intertwined, something entered my mouth. I tried to spit it out, but she clamped her hand over my mouth, sealing it shut.
"Mash. You saved me. You accepted me as a woman, not as a slave. I've fallen for you. These feelings are real. I also apologize for hurting those you care about. I know I'm being selfish. But please, save me."
"What did you…"
My vision rapidly blurred, fading to white. My thoughts grew sluggish.
