Chapter 68 : A Maiden's Change
"Ann?"
Looking at the dignified girl sitting on top of him, Muen's mind failed to catch up for a moment.
Why was she here?
Had she not already left?
No. This was not the time to be thinking about that.
Because the Ann before him did not look dignified at all.
"Young master~"
Ann's lovely face was slightly flushed as she pinned Muen down firmly.
The excitement in her eyes was like flowing magma, as though it might overflow at any moment.
"Why were you hiding from me?"
"I..."
Looking at Ann, Muen licked his dry lips.
You must be joking.
How could he not hide?
If he had not hidden, then she would have seen him dating other girls and gone on a rampage.
"H-hide from you? I have no idea what you are talking about, Ann."
Muen lied with a perfectly serious face.
"I only came out to buy something, and because it got too late for me to return to the academy, I chose to stay at a hotel. The whole day, I did not come into contact with any women at all."
"A lie~"
"I am absolutely not lying. If I am lying, then I... I... I will never get rid of the title of scumbag for the rest of my life!"
"Hehe, is that so?"
Ann narrowed her eyes slightly and laughed softly.
"Then who were the two women I saw during the day?"
"D-during the day?"
Cold sweat instantly poured down like a waterfall.
"What women? I do not know!"
"Young master, you do not actually think..."
Like a cat, Ann bent down and spoke softly into Muen's ear.
"...that I would fail to see through such clumsy disguises, do you?"
"..."
Ann's gentle words echoed in Muen's ears like thunder splitting the sky.
Clumsy?
You call that clumsy?
No one in the entire academy, among hundreds of people, had noticed the disguise, yet she had seen through it at a glance.
Who exactly was the abnormal one here?
Muen's vision darkened.
It was over.
Ann really had discovered it long ago.
All was lost.
"Young master, sneaking behind my back to go on a date with other women... you really are bad."
Ann leaned in even closer.
Muen could already feel that soft body drawing nearer and nearer to his chest.
But he had no time to appreciate that breathtaking sensation.
He felt his body starting to tremble on instinct.
What now?
Fight, or flee?
The short blade was right at hand.
Judging from Ann's abnormal reaction just now, the weapon Teacher Mera had personally refined should be able to resist the power of God’s Chosen.
At this distance, if he launched a sudden attack, Ann would have no room to react.
But...
How could he possibly raise a blade against Ann?
Then should he run?
But Ann already had him trapped. How was escape supposed to be easy?
And yet if he did not run, then with Ann's temperament, once she discovered that he had been involved with other women, she really might break all four of his limbs and lock him away!
While Muen was thinking frantically, Ann had already pressed herself fully against him.
Muen's body gradually tensed.
What was she going to do next?
Knock him unconscious outright?
Or inject him with something?
Or go even further and—
"Young master, I missed you so much."
Yet none of the possibilities Muen had imagined came to pass.
Ann merely embraced him, pressing herself against him with all her strength, as though she wanted to fit every inch of her body to his.
She nuzzled lightly against his chest, neck, and cheek, greedily drawing in the scent that belonged to him alone.
"Young master, I missed you so much," Ann repeated in a murmur, as though she wanted to pour out all the longing she had felt during this time.
"..."
Muen was stunned for a moment, because Ann's actions were truly beyond anything he had expected.
So gentle... was this really Ann?
The Ann who had once imprisoned him, drugged him, and had even tried to break his limbs?
Was he dreaming?
"Young master, you do not still think I would do something like that to hurt you, do you?"
Ann leaned close to his ear, her breath warm and fragrant.
"Did I not say it already? I have changed, just as you have changed, young master.
I will not do those things that hurt you ever again.
So—"
Ann held him tightly.
For the first time, from this girl who was always capable and composed, elegant and calm, Muen heard a faint trace of fragile pleading.
"Young master, when you have time... come home and visit, all right?"
Her voice was soft, yet it struck like the hardest hammer, breaking open his heart.
It touched the softest place within him.
Muen stared blankly at the girl before him, who was so rarely this gentle.
So the words Ann had said back then had not just been lies to trick him into returning?
She really had changed.
She was no longer the yandere ruled by feverish possessiveness.
The Ann before him now felt more like a girl deeply in love.
Muen awkwardly did not know where to put his hands.
In the end, he could only slowly wrap them around the girl's slender waist and answer softly,
"All right."
Muen felt that the delicate body became even softer.
In that moment, the two of them held each other, feeling the warmth of the other.
It was quiet and beautiful.
But it did not take long before Muen sensed that Ann's behavior was becoming less and less innocent, and those slender hands of hers were beginning to wander.
"W-wait, what are you trying to do?"
Muen caught Ann's hand and asked in alarm.
"What am I trying to do?"
Ann lifted her head.
The excited flush on her cheeks had deepened, like a peach ripened to perfection.
She stared straight into Muen's eyes, then licked her lips lightly, her voice carrying a distinctly dangerous temptation.
"It has been a full two months since I last saw you, young master. Surely you do not think I can still endure it. I need to replenish my young master's energy."
As she spoke, Ann lowered herself again, full of barely restrained delight.
"T-today is not a good day, is it? How about we pick another time?"
No matter what, he had spent the day with another girl.
Even if only he himself had considered it a date, spending the night rolling into bed with a different girl afterward was the sort of beastly thing that only the most irredeemable scumbag could do.
"Oh? Young master is unwilling?"
Ann's eyes were soft and alluring, yet she refused to let the matter drop.
She sat up and teasingly tugged at the hem of her maid outfit.
"Even if I dressed up especially for you tonight?"
"...You think a little outfit like that can shake my resolve?"
Muen swallowed hard and let out a scornful laugh.
"Ann, you are looking down on me too much."
"Then..."
Biting her lip, Ann gave him another teasing look.
"What if I add stockings too?"
"..."
"And your favorite black stockings at that."
"..."
...
...
In the end, Muen could not hold back any longer, and amid the girl's delighted laughter, he lunged at her.
At that very moment, from the endless void beyond, the mysterious River Crab Divine Beast descended and, with boundless divine power, erased all information from this place.
Thus, the remaining five thousand words of description could not be seen.
