Chapter 9: It Wasn’t Me!
I removed both bracelets from my wrists while running.
As soon as the the silver crucifixes left my wrists and lost their shine.
–Soak.
The sensation of viscous heat seeped into my hands.
At the same time, a faint feeling of discomfort arose in my eyes.
Please, please let it be within my reach.
While hoping so in my mind, I gazed at the whole body of the demoness.
And,
"…There it is."
The demon woman’s ankles.
In my field of vision, that one spot was emitting a strange light.
A pleasure cavity. Also known as a pleasure point.
I crawled under the feet of the demoness and tried to reach my hand out towards that strange light.
"Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!"
Above me, the demoness let out a screech and swung her arm up.
The huge arm then fell down towards me.
However, it was already too late to run away. I had to settle things here.
"Let me make it in tiiiiime!"
I thrust out the middle and ring fingers of my right hand towards a certain point while diving head-first at the suspiciously glowing ankles of the demoness!
"….ugh"
Just before the demoness’ fist could make contact with my body, she stopped moving.
A small shudder arose from her ankles and spread throughout her entire body in just a moment.
Then,
"Nhoooooo!?"
From the mouth of the demoness, an extremely slovenly and coquettish voice burst out.
Her whole body shook as her tongue protruded from her mouth and she fell to her knees while slightly swaying her hips.
The eyes of the demoness, now uncovered by talismans, were in a daze. She had come magnificently.
After twitching for a moment, the demoness let out a moan that sounded like a sigh as her huge body dispersed into the air.
Soya Misaki, now hanging in midair, fell from the sky.
"Hyaaaaaaaaaa!"
"Nuoooooooooo!"
I ran as fast as I could and reached out my arms below Soya Misaki.
She was falling at a speed where even if someone managed to catch her, they would break their arms.
However, I was confident that I could catch Soya Misaki while remaining in one piece.
Because these cursed arms were no longer human arms.
A weight crashed into my arms with a thud.
"Nuguoh!?"
I pitched forward and collapsed on the ground as I took hold of Soya Misaki.
My arms which were now sandwiched between the ground and Soya Misaki were not injured nor was there any pain.
"…fueh?"
On my arms, Soya Misaki let out a sound of confusion, as if she didn’t know what had just happened.
"Eh? Huh? Why…even though I fell, it doesn’t hurt at all–wah!?"
It seemed like Soya had finally realized that she was pinning me to the ground.
She stood up in a hurry and gave me her hand, "Hey you, are you okay!?"
"I’m fine, excuse me–"
I stood up with Soya’s help–and froze in front of the girl named Soya Misaki.
What a tremendously cute girl.
If Kaede was the cool type and Karasuma the cool type of beauty, then this girl was in the cute category.
A small, round face and a distinctive ribbon tied on her head. Breasts so large that their size couldn’t be concealed by a uniform were poison to the eyes. And due to our close proximity, I could even detect a feminine fragrance.
Come to think of it, around last year, the guys in my class had been kicking up a fuss about something.
A ridiculously cute girl from the Soya family, a family as prestigious as Kaede’s, the Kuzunoha family, had returned to school.
I thought that I had become more accustomed to beauties due to Kaede, but this was indeed…
"Um, erm, could you possibly be the one who saved me? And took down the shikigami?"
I had been absentmindedly admiring Soya, but her gaze brought me back to reality. At the same time, I felt an embarrassment that made my body feel hot.
Oh right, I fucking did it.
Even if it was for helping a girl, I had used the power of this abominable curse.
A shitty ability named Climax Exorcism.
"Hey you!"
As I was writhing in my mind, Soya, who was beginning to grasp the situation with a calmer mind, spoke with a bright expression,
"To be able to exorcise a shikigami I brought from home… I don’t remember seeing your face in the upper-level classes, could you be a scholarship student who just transferred to our school?–"
"Great! This is great! Before you got shaken off, the shikigami suddenly just disappeared on its own!"
"Huh? No, that’s…"
"I was amazed at the timing, too! I didn’t even think that kind of thing was possible!"
I forcefully interrupted Soya’s words and turned my back on her as she tried to make me stay.
"I’m glad to see that neither of us got hurt! Oh, by the way, I’m from class D and just happened to be passing by so you can just forget about me. Good bye!"
"Wait, hold on…"
I got out of there as fast as I could before Soya could say anything.
It should be okay. Judging from Soya’s reaction, she didn’t know that the Shikigami climaxed.
Rather, even if she was aware that the shikigami had climaxed, there was no way she would think that it was someone’s exorcism.
There seemed to be no witnesses other than Soya, and no one would think that I, the lowest-ranked student for three years in a row, could have exorcised a fourth-ranked shikigami.
If I disappeared from this place now, I could gloss over it whenever I wanted to later.
Thinking this, I was running more frantically than even when the demoness was chasing me.
Because who wanted such a thing to be known?
No matter how powerful its exorcism abilities were.
This terrible ability that could make a person, living or dead, climax just by striking them at a single point.
