20: Chapter 16 Am I Cucking Myself?
Want to…
screw him?
Does this woman even know what she’s saying?
Watching Koyanskaya say those words with a straight face, the Beast of Cherishment’s expression couldn’t help but become dumbfounded.
It was abnormal, even unbelievably abnormal!
The other party wasn’t keeping him for ‘devouring,’ but out of romantic feelings between a man and a woman…?
Although this woman was inherently cunning and loved to play tricks…
her ‘Beast’s’ intuition told her that the other party wasn’t joking just now.
Thinking of this, the Beast of Cherishment couldn’t help but let out a contemptuous laugh.
“Heh…” “A Beast who plans to keep humans as pets, yet harbors special feelings for this Black-haired Youth…
With such irresolute thoughts, you will die one day.” “Perhaps.” Koyanskaya raised her eyelids, her enchanting golden eyes looking directly at the Beast of Cherishment: “But you probably won’t live to see that day.” “Before that day comes, you will first become the food for my ascension to a complete Beast.” Hearing these undisguised provocative words, the Beast of Cherishment remained unconcerned, her gaze falling upon the Black-haired Youth on the altar, the temple’s candlelight flickering in her beautiful golden eyes.
“It’s still too early to say who will win.” “Furthermore, if ‘He’ knew about the special feelings you harbor for this Black-haired Youth…
do you think your plan for ascension would still proceed smoothly?” At this point, a deeper meaning appeared in the Beast of Cherishment’s eyes.
“I know about your arrogance…
but you’re still afraid, aren’t you?” “You’re not worried about your own safety, but if He were to learn that your hesitation to destroy the human order originated from a Black-haired Youth…
He would surely kill this child at all costs, wouldn’t He?” “Or do you think you can always protect him, or even drive that fellow out?” The Tunguska Event, an unsolved mystery in later history referred to as ‘peculiar,’ was also the birth date of the Beast of Cherishment.
And the first fragment of the Alien God who destroyed the human order also descended to Earth during this 1908 Tunguska Event.
Although the Alien God’s main body was too vast and high-dimensional to directly interfere with Earth, she split herself into fragments.
And that ‘Alien God fragment’ was equivalent to her avatar.
Although the ‘Avatar of the Alien God’ had already left after descending, no one knew if She would one day notice Koyanskaya’s ‘abnormality’.
To be precise, it was Koyanskaya’s abnormal attitude when dealing with Issei.
“Are you confident you can always guarantee his safety, Beast of Cherishment?” “I…” Koyanskaya pursed her red lips, but uncharacteristically did not immediately refute.
She couldn’t refute it…
she simply couldn’t refute her words.
She had to admit that if she were facing that cosmic life form from outside the solar system and a higher dimension, even if it was just an avatar, she would still need to pay close attention.
Especially since she had to constantly protect Issei’s safety.
Looking at Koyanskaya’s silent demeanor, the Beast of Cherishment shook her head and slowly said, “You are still too lacking in foresight.” “If I were you, I would find someone to help ensure his safety before leaving the tent in the future…” The night wind blew, and the candlelight flickered.
The firelight dispersed the vast darkness, and Koyanskaya, standing under the light, suddenly sensed something was amiss.
“Wait a minute…” She realized the blind spot, raised her head, and scrutinized the woman before her: “Why have you been worrying about his safety since just now?” Thinking carefully, the Beast of Cherishment ‘kidnapped’ Issei tonight, but neither used him to make demands nor did anything to him.
Instead, she kept ‘implying’ things to Koyanskaya.
Something is wrong…
this woman is suspicious!
Looking at the momentarily silent woman, Koyanskaya narrowed her eyes and said, “Beast of Cherishment, don’t tell me you…” Before she could finish, she was mildly interrupted: “It’s just because he is still useful to me.” This ‘hasty’ reply made Koyanskaya chuckle softly.
“The Beast of Cherishment, who is born hating all humans, would actually go to such lengths for this matter, even willing to temporarily’shake hands and make peace’ with me?
Are you perhaps thinking I’ll hand him over for you to look after?” “This is merely…” the Beast of Cherishment replied lightly, “a suggestion.” “Until he evolves into a complete Beast, he must not be harmed.” “Then don’t trouble yourself, protecting him…
I am enough.” Koyanskaya said with a cold laugh, “I wouldn’t be foolish enough to trust a Beast who has previously laid a hand on him.” …[Koyanskaya ultimately brought you back to the tent herself, but clearly, the Beast of Cherishment’s words tonight had put her on alert.
Therefore, she placed several layers of Magecraft Bounded Fields outside the tent and created dozens of Magic Beasts formed from concentrated resentment, constantly guarding the surroundings.] [When you woke up from your slumber, she was sitting at the table, staring blankly at the vast river of stars outside.] Issei slowly opened his eyes, and his vision was immediately filled by the woman in front of him.
Compared to usual, she appeared particularly delicate and charming tonight.
Her rosy lips shone invitingly in the candlelight.
Although this era shouldn’t yet have modern-style dresses, this Miss Beast was wearing a black dress.
The black was profound like eternal night, but her fair skin stood out especially in the darkness, perfectly outlining her graceful and exquisite figure.
Perhaps because she was completely unguarded, her demeanor was exceptionally relaxed, and her body unconsciously leaned forward, close to the table.
This casual movement caused her heavy bosom to press against the tabletop.
“Why are you staring at me ever since you woke up…?” Sensing the youth’s gaze fixed on her, Koyanskaya asked somewhat awkwardly.
“Because you are very beautiful,” Issei replied with a smile.
Hearing this, Koyanskaya unnaturally shifted her gaze away.
Although she had just domineeringly declared to the Beast of Cherishment that she ‘wanted to screw him,’ at this moment, she seemed more like the passive party.
If that woman saw this scene…
she would probably be mocked for the rest of her life, right?
Thinking of this, a flicker of panic crossed her beautiful eyes, and a captivating blush quickly flashed across her cheeks.
But soon, as if remembering something, her eyes became much more serious.
“Sajou-kun…
there is something I want to talk to you about.” Why the sudden seriousness out of nowhere…?
Issei asked, confused, “Go ahead.” “Do you want to save the human order?” The sudden question made Issei freeze for a moment.
During this time, whenever he brought up this matter, Koyanskaya would always change the subject in various ways…
He didn’t expect her to bring it up herself this time?
After a brief silence, he nodded without hesitation.
“It’s not about whether I want to…
but if there is no human order, wouldn’t I lose the space to exist?” Issei smiled: “Therefore, I will save the human order.” The youth’s answer caused Koyanskaya to become momentarily distracted.
She stared blankly at the youth’s face.
A gentle expression always hung on his face, and his dark eyes reflected her image in the candlelight.
Because she hated humans, she wanted to use human weapons to domesticate them all into livestock…
This was the meaning behind the birth of the ‘Beast of Cherishment’.
But now, compared to ‘destruction,’ she seemed more immersed in Issei’s gentleness.
However, she also had a dilemma—if she truly gave up her original ideas for his sake, would the ‘Beast of Cherishment’ still exist?
But just then, Issei suddenly got off the bed and slowly walked up to Koyanskaya.
He reached out, gently stroked the woman’s beautiful cheek, and softly said, “I won’t forcibly change your mind.” “But if you truly plan to destroy the human order someday…
I will stop you.” “Stop me…?” Koyanskaya was stunned for a moment, feeling somewhat dazed.
She suddenly realized…
she seemed to have overlooked the most important thing.
He had his ideals, but her goal could not be shaken because of them.
Evolving into a complete Beast, then destroying humanity’s ecosystem, making them experience what abused, abandoned, and exploited animals feel…
This was her purpose as the ‘Beast of Cherishment’.
Although this conflicted with Issei’s ideals, still— Who says enemies can’t be lovers?
“Is that so~?” Thinking of this, the corner of Koyanskaya’s mouth curled into a captivating arc.
She slightly bent her knees, leaned close to the youth, pressing her full, soft figure gently against him, and a seductive, alluring voice whispered into his ear.
“Then how do you plan to stop me?” “If you plan to save the human order…
what will you do for it?” Their gazes met, and the candlelight flickered in their eyes.
Issei pondered for a moment and said, “I’d probably start by establishing an Organization for the Preservation of the human order…
Considering I don’t have much funding, I might look for a sponsor or have others handle this.” “Oh?
An organization specifically for protecting the human order…” Koyanskaya raised an eyebrow, “Have you thought of a name?” Issei thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile.
“…Let’s call it Chaldea.”
