The Priest Wants to Retire

EP.198 The Day the Sheep Devoured the Wolf (2)

Regret was immense.

I had no regret about the decision to share a bed with the Hero.

But the regret that I could have expressed it a little differently clung to my thoughts like stubborn dirt that wouldn’t wash away.

To think I’d say I’d eat up the child I had cared for like a beloved niece like a dog.

Wasn’t that an unqualified statement as a protector, a man, and a human, before being a clergyman?

In the heat of the moment, I had blurted it out without thinking.

The saying that a word once spoken can’t be taken back applied here too, but couldn’t I take it back just this once, just this once?

Such despicable thoughts started to creep in.

“Hero. What on earth—”

In just one breath, before I could even finish my hazy words, my body was thrown onto the bed.

Thud!

My body, tossed around like a mountain, sank effortlessly into the fluffy mattress.

I tried to raise my body back up with the strength I had, but such a weak attempt was futile against the weight that kept piling up.

In a daze, I caught sight of a playful girl pressing down on me from above.

For a moment, I lost my mind.

A pure and innocent face that matched her flower-like age.

Just below, my gaze fell on a body optimized to stir a male’s desires.

The tempting curves of her breasts were impossible to ignore.

An impulse to grab them with both hands surged uncontrollably.

Like a thin strand of hair brushing against my nose, every inch of her soft, intoxicating scent made me dizzy.

Honestly, if there were a man who could keep his sanity after seeing this spectacle, he was either not a man or he clearly didn’t like women.

Ugh!

Grrr. I unintentionally let out a sinful moan as her lower body deliberately pressed against my abdomen.

I barely managed to suppress another moan, but the writhing of my waist as I jumped like a fish was transmitted directly to her, and suddenly a delighted giggle reached my ears.

Hehe~♪

I hastily tried to cover my reddened face with my arm, but that was futile since it wasn’t just my face that was hot.

“Y-You, Hero! Uah—!”

With no time to react, her body started to engulf mine, suffocating my breath.

It was soft to the point of being speechless, and it was even hotter than that.

Thanks to my senses being heightened by dozens of times, I could perceive how her ample breasts rubbed and squished against my chest even with my eyes closed.

I was able to endure the pleasure by biting down hard, but that lasted only a moment.

Once again, the sound of her skin brushing against the sheets became my signal, as her plump thighs began to spiral around my lower body, teasing me mercilessly.

Hah…!

Peck…♡

A crude sigh escaped me unexpectedly.

The aftermath was sweet as if rewarding my earlier efforts with a kiss that felt like a treat.

I was being consumed.

At this rate, my body and mind would be completely devoured by her.

Through all the hardships, the only proper thought that echoed in my battered mind was that.

“Hero. Wait, just wait a sec! Ah! Ugh! Ah!”

Peck. Peck. Peck. Peck.

Even as I tossed aside my pride and let out a desperate cry, the Hero’s assault did not cease but only intensified.

As she simply suppressed my resistance, her relentless licking, nibbling, and sucking on my body was undeniably the act of a puppy.

Then it hit me.

Amidst the pleasant dizziness, a huge question mark formed in my mind.

Something felt off.

Even if I had given my consent and our relationship had become mutual, the expression and behavior the Hero was showing on the bed were vastly different from any I had ever seen before.

Even though her shameful state was one thing.

The drastic reduction in her usual chatter was also noteworthy.

Unlike the past, where she had pounced on me without a second thought, her movements were now tinged with a faint artfulness that I couldn’t ignore.

If her previous actions reminded me of a docile puppy, the current Hero resembled a clever wolf cornering its prey.

Could it be that she was under some bad influence again?

That worried thought flitted through my mind.

Huh!

… ?

The Hero’s smooth movements suddenly halted.

Then her gaze turned towards her right hand.

Her wide-open eyes darted back and forth, clearly displaying a suspicious expression.

No way…

“Hero! Look over there! A meteor in the sky!”

“What!? Really?!”

At my sudden shout, the Hero’s head spun towards the window in an instant.

Right after that, the overwhelming force keeping me pinned down loosened just slightly.

Umm!? Nothing! I can’t see anything!

I wouldn’t let that opportunity slip by.

Thud. Creak.

The bed groaned and swayed up and down with the powerful movement.

Though a ruckus broke out atop the bed, my body and the Hero’s remained tightly pressed against each other.

What changed was merely our positions. No, only our hierarchical relation.

The stance shifted from me being covered by the Hero to me dominating her instead.

… Huh!

Surprised by such an unexpected turn of events?

An adorable hiccup accompanied by faint breaths reached my ears.

When I quietly glanced downward, I saw the Hero’s face, lips quivering while trying hard to contain her shock.

It was a completely natural reaction.

The distance between our faces had become so close that we could nearly touch noses.

Not only that.

One of the Hero’s legs was tantalizingly draped over my shoulder, and her wrists were firmly pinned down by my hands on the bed.

“What’s this on your palm?”

“!?”

At my teasing question, the Hero’s blue eyes began flailing around in confusion.

Written on her palm were some very familiar words in a familiar handwriting.

If you speak loudly like usual, you’ll ruin the atmosphere. Try to refrain from talking as much as possible.

Forcibly overpowering isn’t allowed! Teasing through gentle, ticklish movements is effective.

No matter what I hear, maintain a mild smile. If necessary, only puppy sounds are permitted. Men are inherently weak against actions that stimulate their imagination.

Moreover, it states! In this world…

In this world, there’s no one who dislikes animal ears and tails… Did Bigtim write this?

The Hero kept avoiding my gaze upon my question, but this silence was practically a tacit agreement.

No wonder her behavior was so unusual compared to normal. This background must have been hidden all along.

Bigtim always took the role of supporting his foolish sister, something I had witnessed countless times.

I never dreamed his influence would extend even here.

After a brief moment of relief for worrying too much, out of the blue, an indescribable irritation surged within me.

Huff….

Just moments ago, the person who had nearly had their soul stolen pulled this prank.

I knew it wasn’t intentional, but considering that my heart had sunk, that excuse didn’t serve as a defense.

“Prepare yourself.”

“W-What…?”

With a smirk, I delivered my cold words, causing the Hero to tilt her head in confusion.

She had no idea what was going to happen to her next.

◈◈◈

What goes around comes around.

It’s a phrase you often see in various forms of media, but I personally did not favor this line of thinking.

When people interact, resentment builds up; it’s an inevitable outcome. A life drained of strength from constant vows of revenge just wouldn’t suit my nature as an ordinary person.

However, being human, unaddressed anger and impulses occasionally bubbled to the surface.

And this was that moment.

Ah! Ugh! Oh, no! No! Mmm! Ugh!

The thin underwear covering the Hero’s private area.

Every time my fingertips brushed over the wetness hidden beyond, incoherent breaths escaped me endlessly.

Hahh!?

Crack!

The moan that spilled from my clenched throat seemed like a plea for mercy, but I couldn’t care less.

My reason was slowly fading, and only my baser instincts began to dominate my defenseless body.

Each time my middle and ring fingers poked at her sensitive areas, the exhilarating curves of her body trembled as if electrified, giving me a sense of conquest I had never felt before.

Just when the tremors reached their peak, I leaned in close and breathed into her ear as if sharing a secret.

“Abigail.”

─᧗ʃᖍ!?

Crack! Puff! Puff!

As soon as I called her name, I pushed my fingers in deeper.

Her body writhed restlessly, the precious place, usually a well-guarded secret, became exposed at last.

My fingers glistened with the nectar that flowed from her private parts, but instead of feeling disgusted, my urges only intensified.

The sensual air thickened within the sealed room, heating up my hardened core fueled by those very impulses.

Now. Just now, perhaps there was still a chance to retreat.

It was the right thing to do; it had to be.

But I felt absolutely no inclination to turn back.

“I said I’d eat you up like a dog.”

World peace was merely a flimsy pretext, and the request she had made was just a trigger.

This was purely my will.

I couldn’t deny it any longer.

I wanted to embrace the woman before my eyes.

I wanted to etch an indelible mark that could never be undone.

Woof…♡

The voice provoking my still-dawdling self unexpectedly shattered the silence, and just after that, the last thread of reason within me snapped.
