"You!" Hoshino Yume was both shocked and angry, trying to struggle.
Why is she so strong!
And it seems like the person behind is getting bigger?
"Let go of me!" Hoshino Yume's face was red as water, "You bastard! Sneak attacking me!"
Hoshino Yume could clearly feel her magic power flowing like a flood through gates, irrepressibly being continuously absorbed by the other through their tightly pressed bodies.
"What sneak attack?" Pale laughed softly under her hood. "Didn't you invite me here?"
Hoshino Yume wanted to resist, but her body completely disobeyed her!
Damn damn damn!
Why is it so soft and warm!
Terrible!
Her legs... her legs went weak...
This strange sensation not only drained her magic power, but also drained her strength to resist.
Wisps of body fragrance drilled into Hoshino Yume's nostrils, rushing straight to her brain, bringing slight dizziness and inexplicable heat.
Her brain... her brain feels so strange...
Hoshino Yume's struggles became weaker and weaker. Rather than resistance, it was more like unconscious nuzzling in that warm embrace.
It was acting spoiled.
"Mmm~ nn"
An uncontrolled, subtle moan actually escaped from Hoshino Yume's throat. She immediately bit her lower lip in terror, her cheeks burning fiercely.
Hoshino Yume never knew she could make such strange sounds.
Damn damn damn!
That cursed Ember!
She must have used some lewd magic on me!
Otherwise why would it feel so good!
Hoshino Yume thought so.
Of course, Pale wouldn't use such magic—it was too wasteful.
"Oh?" Pale seemed to notice her change, letting out a mocking laugh.
The arm around Hoshino Yume's waist relaxed its strength slightly.
As a result, this little girl actually nuzzled in Pale's embrace on her own, wishing she could bury her head completely inside, her hair strands tickling Pale.
Pale was also amazed by Hoshino Yume's reaction.
She had originally only planned to use physical contact to more efficiently absorb magic power... but she never expected it would lead to such... active throwing herself into her arms.
Didn't this girl hate her to the bone?
Pale could feel the girl in her arms not only giving up resistance, but even unconsciously seeking deeper contact. The fluffy pink head rubbed around her neck area, the slender body completely relaxed, the previous gnashing angry curses becoming soft, nasal humming like a cat being petted comfortably.
Pale chuckled softly and rubbed Hoshino Yume's little head.
"Be good~" Pale's demonic whisper sounded again, "Just leave everything to me~ It'll be over soon~"
The surrounding team members had long been watching with red faces, their breathing unconsciously quickening.
They watched their captain melt like spring water in that dangerous woman's arms, listening to those intermittent, alluring moans, feeling the warehouse air become thick and ambiguous.
After all, they were just a group of children who left home early.
How could they play against the old monster Pale?
When Pale finally stopped absorbing with satisfaction and gently pushed away Hoshino Yume, who could barely stand, Hoshino Yume's legs went soft and she almost knelt directly on the ground, her eyes dazed, mouth slightly open with tongue out, panting.
Pale frivolously scraped her burning cheek with her finger, then under everyone's shocked gaze, Pale slowly raised her other free hand to the edge of her huge hood.
"Haven't you always wanted to see?" She whispered to Hoshino Yume, who was almost melting in her arms, "As you wish~"
Pale gently removed her hood.
Gray hair cascaded down like a waterfall, her exquisite face full of provocation and charm.
The previously motionless "Ember" softly turned into a puddle of mud.
This was body tissue left by "Swamp Monsters" for Pale—highly malleable, could be kneaded into any shape.
With Pale's skillful craftsmanship, creating a convincing fake body wasn't difficult.
Pale waved her hand lightly, and the fake body disappeared.
"Damn... I'm going to kill you!"
Hoshino Yume suddenly tried to gather magic power, but how could she organize proper counterattack now?
"I'll bite you to death! I'll bite you to death!"
Hoshino Yume twisted her body, constantly adjusting angles, arching her neck back to expose sharp canine teeth, wanting to attack Pale behind her.
But Pale used just one hand to easily pinch the girl's chin.
"Mm?!" Hoshino Yume felt her jaw go numb, her mouth involuntarily pinched open, only able to make unclear whimpers, teeth futilely opening and closing, unable to even touch the other's sleeve.
"Let me go, I want to bite you!"
"Still breathing fire?"
"Wu! Wuaaa!" Hoshino Yume was completely enraged, struggling more violently, legs kicking randomly, but could only futilely kick air.
"Children who breathe fire need proper punishment~" Pale's voice was sweet as honey, yet chilling.
She held the barely-standing Hoshino Yume and sat on a cargo box. Then, without courtesy, she placed Hoshino Yume face-down across her joined legs, in a position like getting an injection.
"You! What are you doing?!" Hoshino Yume screamed in terror, struggling futilely.
Hoshino Yume felt very bad!
This person must be planning something terrible!
"Mm?" Pale feigned confusion.
Under the shocked gazes of all surrounding team members...
"No! Save me! Save me! No no! Don't look at me, don't look at me!"
Being so embarrassed in front of her team members!
"Ahhhhh!!!" Hoshino Yume let out an extremely shameful and terrified scream. "No! Don't! Let's talk this out! Let's talk!"
Hoshino Yume's brain had completely crashed.
Hahaha...
Is this hell?
I want to die, I want to die.
Might as well just fall and become a witch...
Hahaha.
Of course, Pale had already removed the little girl's filth along with absorbing her magic power.
Want to fall?
Dream on!
"I told you before, next time I come, I'll spank your little bottom~"
Pale raised her hand high.
Smack!!!
A crisp, loud slap, without any barrier, harshly struck Hoshino Yume.
"Hoooooo!"
Intense pain and unprecedented shame instantly crushed Hoshino Yume like a tsunami. She jerked her head up, tears pouring out madly.
Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack!
"I won't forgive you!"
"I'm going to kill you!"
"Hoooooo!"
"No... don't..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
"Please... stop!"
"Do you still dare?"
"I don't dare anymore... wuuu... never again... please let me go..." Hoshino Yume sobbed uncontrollably.
The peach was ripe.
"Good girl."
Then, Pale loosened her arms like discarding a toy she'd grown tired of.
Hoshino Yume immediately lost all support, softly sliding from her legs, falling onto the cold, hard ground with a "thud."
"Wuwuwuwu..."
"Wuwu, I... I won't forgive you. I can't get married anymore..."
Hoshino Yume's hands instinctively wanted to cover her rear, but didn't dare actually touch due to pain, only able to futilely prop herself on the ground, head down, shoulders violently shaking, making small animal-like whimpers. Her carefully styled pink twin tails had also scattered, several strands sticking to her tear-wet cheeks, looking utterly disheveled and pitiful.
Pale didn't even spare her another glance.
She stood up elegantly, lightly dusting off nonexistent dust from her skirt.
Her gaze lightly swept over the bewildered team members, finally settling on the magic stones piled in the warehouse.
Pale walked over with unhurried steps, the sound of high heels hitting the ground clearly audible in the silent warehouse, each step like beating on the hearts of all present girls.
"Magic stones~ I'm not taking much~"
Pale casually picked up three stones.
Then merged into shadows under everyone's amazed gazes.
"Thanks~ I'm very satisfied with the magic stones~"
"Ember! I will definitely kill you!"
Screams echoed throughout the base.
