Chapter 309: A Good Day to Have an Affair (3)

It seemed Erina had returned safely to her room. The game was only just beginning. How long would AA remain oblivious? Just when would she notice Erina's misconduct and spread her legs for me? Nine days remained. Applauding AA's denseness once again, I wrapped up the day.

The second day in Ahildern. AA was slightly relieved, but anxiety still filled her face. Whether eating a meal or going somewhere, she always minded Erina, struggling desperately to manage her facial expression to pretend she wasn't suspecting her and pretend she believed in her. But even when the lie-incapable Hero tried hard to hide her expression, it was all laid bare. It reached the point where Salina, who still didn't know about the wager between me and AA, asked:

"Hero. Your expression looks unwell today. Has something happened?"

"Yes? N-No, nothing's wrong."

Seeing that, Erina made a very worried face, but then looked back and forth between the clock and me. The time then was lunchtime, 12:30 PM. As if anticipating the intense sex that would take place six hours and thirty minutes later, Erina's face was already flushed red. It was a scene reminiscent of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's [The Little Prince].

Like the fennec fox appearing in it, if the appointed time was 7:00 PM, she grew happy starting from lunch. And when 6:00 PM arrived, she couldn't contain her excitement, looking as if she had already engaged in sloppy sex with an imaginary version of me, and when 7:00 PM struck, the sound of sprinting toward my door could be heard. Because the nimble agility of an elf roaming the forest remained intact, she skillfully avoided the servants' eyes and came to me.

When I swung the door open, Erina grabbed my face and showered me with kisses. I fumbled with my hand to shut the door, and the two of us threw ourselves onto the bed. Erina shook her body as if having completely forgotten about AA, yet whenever AA's voice was heard in the distance, she stealthily checked my mood and demanded a solution from me.

On the third day, AA's expression relaxed a little, but she was still suffering from anxiety. As I had expected, she too seemed to regard the third day as the greatest hurdle. While she didn't seem to openly ask Erina in front of me whether she was meeting with me, she remained wary of me and worried about Erina.

"Princess Erina. Doesn't Sir Hero worry? You keep wandering outside, Princess."

"Heeung......! Aht......! Euk......! It's fine. Today... A-AA told me......! That she always...... heueut......! Trusts me......! Haeueut...! Heueuk......!"

"Fuck."

I felt a little pity for AA.

The fourth day. A bit of suspicion vanished from AA's face. She gradually learned to smile with a brighter expression, even drawing closer to me and chatting amiably. Salina seemed displeased with AA's attitude, but I liked her cheerful demeanor very much.

"How is Sir Hero doing?"

"Aaaang! Aang! Aang! Haeung...! S-She doesn't know...... aeuk...! Ah......!"

At the promised hour of 7:00 PM, we were repeating the promised act. Spreading her legs wide and thrusting my waist forcefully upward, I drove all the way into Erina's center. Erina was losing her mind from the piston-like movements scraping against the deepest part of her vagina, a spot usually unreachable. When the violent act ended and I washed Erina's body, she naturally opened up everything from her legs to her cunt for me, acting spoiled.

Just as AA's trust in Erina deepened, Erina was slowly melting into me, both body and heart.

The fifth day. AA had now regained her smile. She was convinced Erina would not betray her. It was to the point I suspected Erina might be periodically using the Oath of Meiga on her. No, how could she not know? Not only did she give off the exact same scent of soap foam as me every day, she vanished into thin air every evening at 7:00 PM, yet she didn't know?

Unable to bear it any longer, I sounded AA out first.

"How has the Princess been lately?"

AA replied to my question without harboring any wariness. Even though she was convinced she had won, she did not mock me or show off her sense of victory. She simply seemed happy with the mere fact that Erina loved her.

"Erina? She's doing well."

"Is that so? She certainly looks quite healthy when seen from afar; has she picked up some new hobby?"

"It's not a hobby, but I heard she's been taking classes separately lately."

"Classes?"

"Yes. I heard she takes classes every evening at 7:00 PM."

Why did she use her head so remarkably well in this sort of thing? Only when 7:00 PM arrived did I grasp the truth behind this lie. At my suggestion, having grown tired of fucking only Erina every day, I was fucking Salina together with Erina. Salina answered like this regarding 'Erina's hobby.' At that moment, Erina was sucking Salina's cunt while getting fucked by me.

"Haeuk....! I, I......! I ins... instructed her to say that......! Having sex like this......! With Lord Lucius.....! Is also part......! Part of a splendid...... class...... after aaallll....! Haeuk!"

Erina's proficiency grew by the day, to the point Salina could no longer endure it. Listening to Salina's convulsing explanation, I nodded my head with a satisfied expression. As expected, this was why having an ally was great.

The sixth day. AA was overtly flaunting her love with Erina. She held tightly onto Erina's arm, maintaining physical contact all day, or walked down the streets with interlocked fingers. They clung together so long that I couldn't even catch a glimpse of Erina's face before 7:00 PM arrived.

Only slipping away at 8:00 PM, Erina threw herself into my arms and spoke:

"D-Did you wait? Seeing AA smile, I couldn't bring myself to leave, so...... t-that...... I ended up doing it with AA first...... But...... I couldn't be satisfied at all...... that......"

Erina was whimpering with a confused look. Holding her in my arms, I stroked her hair. Wiping away the tears flowing from her eyes, I laid her down on the floor and pulled the duvet over us. Beneath the duvet, we interlocked fingers, kissed, rubbed our bellies and chests together, and heaved our waists. Erina bit into my lips frantically to crave my saliva, while I poked my fingers into her anus and pinched her nipples.

The seventh day

An aura of total victory ripened on AA's face. Even without hiding her joyous countenance, she did not mock me to the end. She merely spoke like this:

"Now we can go back to being friends."

"There are still three days left, Sir Hero. It's too early to judge."

"Do you not want to be friends with me, Sir Priest?"

The concept of being friends with a woman did not exist.

"You are someone I want to make my woman rather than a friend. You know it too, that you are alluring."

"You are truly a charming person, Sir Priest, but even so, Erina trusts me as she is. And since we were originally friends, I can't do that."

"By the way, I'm no longer a priest, yet you still call me Sir Priest."

AA shook her head and said:

"You will always be Sir Priest to me. Calling you by another name feels a little embarrassing now that I think about it. Do you want me to call you by a different name, Sir Priest?"

"Gege."

"Yes? Gege? What is that?"

"I was just saying."

I had no actual desire to hear it. Having AA call me Sir Priest was best, after all. That day, too, 7:00 PM approached. Just as stars poke their heads out when the sun sets, Erina naturally offered her cunt to me, and I naturally held her down while pouring out semen. Just like that, the eighth day also flowed by naturally, leaving AA steeped in joy and a sense of victory.

The ninth day. AA was now treating me like a friend, truly acting like someone who had won it all. She was someone who looked upon too many things with hope. Now, it was time for an adult like me to teach her that the world is not beautiful.

I summoned AA at 6:30 PM. Bewildered by my sudden summon, she nonetheless came to my room. I kept checking the clock and looked back at AA. AA said:

"Ah...... Sir Priest. What did you call me for?"

"Yes. Our wager is nearing its end now, isn't it?"

"Yes. That's right."

"So, I wanted to make sure once more. You will keep your promise, won't you?"

To me, who was acting as if I had already won, AA smiled and reasoned gently:

"Sir Priest. Um...... Erina won't come. At this hour, it's time for her to take classes from the Queen, and she has endured well until now."

"You never know, Sir Hero. Worldly matters are unpredictable."

"There's no way that's true."

I stared silently at the clock. That hint alone was enough for AA. Her smiling expression froze coldly. Unconsciously, AA looked at the clock, then back at me. A drop of cold sweat rolled down AA's forehead. Trembling her lips, she stared at me with a pale face.

"Y-You're joking, right, Sir Priest? Um...... B-Because you lost the wager, you're just teasing me one last time, right? Even I will get angry, you know?"

Silence reveals more than chatter. I had merely kept my mouth shut, but AA collapsed onto the floor, gasping for breath. Convincing herself it couldn't be true, her anxiety symptoms seemed to flare up once again. Time was ticking away. 6:40 PM. 6:50 PM. In sync with the ticking clock hands, sweat poured like rain down AA's face. Without a word, we stared only at the clock.

The time AA would learn the truth was 7:00 PM. Yet I was unhurried. This was not gambling, but a formula for guaranteed victory. With every passing second, I couldn't help the smile spreading across my lips.

56 minutes

57 minutes

58 minutes

59 minutes

And then, 7:00 PM. The bell tolling seven rang out, and clutching her chest, AA let out a heavy sigh. After a brief period of silence, 7:05 PM arrived. Erina did not appear.

Looking back at me, AA smiled and said:

"Thank goodness...... Sir Priest. Really, why would you play such a prank? I mean......"

Knock. Knock. Knock.

AA froze with a smile still on her face. From beyond the door, Erina's voice was heard:

"Lucius, h-hurry and open the door...... It will be trouble if the servants spot me......!"
