Chapter 323 - Another Breakthrough!
Karin couldn't help but look at Yuna in awe when she finished her story. Well, at least as far as she could do so considering her current position. Karin would occasionally hear Yuna, Hinata, and Anko talk about places and people she had never heard about. Now that she had affirmed her relationship with Yuna, she could no longer hold back her curiosity and asked the trio what they were talking about.
As a result, Yuna told her about her past life just like she did with Hinata and Anko after they asked properly.
Yuna only shrugged her shoulders at Karin's sparkling eyes.
"Well, the past is the past, and the future is the present, so I don't really bother about my past life too much anymore. Anyway, any more questions?"
Karin thought about Yuna's question for a while and then nodded her head.
"You said you had a perverted maid in your past life as well, was she more perverted than me?"
While Hinata and Anko couldn't help but look at Karin weirdly for that almost off-topic question, Yuna chuckled in amusement.
"Yup, much more perverted."
"GAH!"
It was as if Karin was hit by lightning when Yuna confirmed what she had already feared, but moments later, she managed to suppress her frustration due to getting bested, and a fire ignited in her eyes.
"Very well, she might be above me now, but I won't lose!"
While Hinata and Anko could only facepalm at Karin's words, Yuna nodded in approval.
"Only by aiming for the apex can you reach it."
"Yes, Yuna-sama!"
Although Karin wasn't entirely sure what Yuna was talking about, she felt like Yuna approved of her goal, so she gave her a determination-filled answer.
A short moment of silence later, a smirk appeared on Yuna's face, and she started talking again.
"Hehe, seems like your resolve will be tested right away, Karin."
At first, Karin had no idea what Yuna was talking about, but her face paled after using her sensing ability to feel out her surroundings.
Moments later, someone knocked on the door.
"It's me, Natsuko. Karin didn't come home yesterday, so I wonder if she stayed here, Yuna-sama."
"Haha, mother-in-law, no need to be a stranger, come in!"
Karin and Natsuko were both stunned by Yuna calling Natsuko mother-in-law, but Natsuko regained her composure and entered the room before Karin could react. The moment she entered...
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY DAUGHTER!?"
...she saw a scene she certainly didn't expect to see. Karin, her daughter, was currently on all fours on the ground, while Yuna was resting her legs on Karin's back.
"Haha, what do you mean, Natsuko. I'm just using her as a leg rest."
Natsuko's anger was about to explode even more violently when Karin interrupted her.
"Mom, please don't interrupt my rew...* cough*, punishment. I made a mistake, so Yuna-sama is punishing me right now."
"Ohh? If you want, we can stop now; I don't mind."
"That won't be necessary! Ah, damn."
Karin wanted to talk her way out of the situation, but as soon as Yuna offered her to stop, Karin's instincts kicked in, and she denied Yuna's offer by reflex.
Natsuko facepalmed when she realized what was going on. Her daughter's... preferences weren't exactly a secret to her, but she didn't expect it to be this bad.
The first thing Natsuko noted was obviously Karin's position, but now that she was over that shock, her eyes wandered over Karin's body, and the more things she saw, the more her face fell.
"A little bit of your butt can be seen from my position; it seems to be rather red."
"Yesterday I fell on it whi..."
"Yesterday, I spanked it until it was glowing red."
Karin quickly came up with an excuse for her red butt, but Yuna cut her off before she could finish speaking.
"There seem to be some markings on your wrists."
"Ah, that happened when..."
"I tied her to the bedframe yesterday evening."
Yet again, Natsuko noticed some markings on Karin. However, this time it was Anko who interrupted Karin's excuse instead of Yuna.
Natsuko looked from Yuna to Anko, who had amused smirks on their faces, to Karin, who was blushing furiously and sighed again.
"It seems like there is a bit mark on your shoulder."
"T-That i-is from err...I was bitten by...err..."
This time, it seems like Karin was incapable of coming up with an excuse, but neither was there someone who said the actual cause.
Natsuko, yet again, glanced at the couch where Yuna, Anko, and Hinata were sitting and couldn't help but be surprised by what she saw. Yuna and Anko were both smirking at Hinata, who was currently blushing furiously while hiding her face behind her hands.
"I-I-I d-don't know! It just happened in the heat of the moment!"
This time, Natsuko was genuinely shocked. She was not surprised that Yuna and Anko would do stuff like that but never expected Hinata to do the same.
Natsuko rubbed her temples a little to counter the incoming headache and took a deep sigh.
"Fine, whatever, you did consent to what happened, didn't you, Karin."
Karin lowered her head as shame threatened to overwhelm her, but moments later, she gritted her teeth and looked into her mother's eyes with a serious expression. Well, as serious as the expression of someone who is currently being used as a footstool could be.
"Yes, I did, and I want to stay by Yuna-sama's side."
"Wow, did she just confess to her mother that she likes getting spanked, tied up, and bitten? That's pretty hardcore."
Everyone in the room looked at Yuna in shock when she said those words. The current scene seemed to develop into some kind of weird mother-daughter bonding moment, but that feeling evaporated rather quickly after Yuna verbally assassinated Karin like that.
"Haa~ Although Hinata-sama has quite the sharp tongue, Yuna-sama's is still the best~"
Naturally, those words were spoken by Karin, whose eyes were now glazed over while looking into the distance. Everyone was looking at her in bewilderment except for Yuna, who nodded in approval.
"Congrats on the breakthrough."
Natsuko, who no longer had any clue what was going on, decided it was time for her to go. She had seen enough outragous things for one day.
"Whatever, I will be leaving now. Karin, it would be great if you could come over for dinner tonight. There are a few things I would talk with you about."
When Karin heard her mother say her name, she woke up from her trance and nodded her head in acknowledgment.
"Okay, mom, I will be home for dinner."
Moments later, Natsuko left the room, and Yuna immediately asked Karin a question.
"Well, what did you think about the situation that just happened."
"It was the most humiliating experience in my life."
"Hehe, that wasn't the question."
Karin shuddered when she felt Yuna's piercing purple eyes on her and only now noticed that something wet was flowing down her legs.
"I'm ridiculously turned on right now."
Yuna laughed out loud when she heard Karin's words.
"Hahaha, very well, time for another round. Don't worry; I will make sure that you are home for dinner, Karin. Hehe, but I won't make any guarantees about the condition you will be in."
While Hinata and Anko paled a little when they heard that Yuna wanted to go another round, Karin had an excited gleam in her eyes, which was noticed by Hinata and Anko.
When the duo realized that Karin appeared to be good to go again, they glanced at each other and nodded their heads. Moments later, blue markings appeared around Hinata's eyes and red ones around Anko's.. Both of them needed the stamina boost to keep up with Yuna and Karin's insane stamina.
