“……Your Holiness? Me?”
“Yeah. Your Holiness. Delta, you.”
Those blue eyes were filled with conviction. They believed that if they left me like this, the very thing they were concerned about would inevitably happen. And I couldn’t easily deny Lize’s words either.
There was a prickling feeling.
If the Pope had feelings for me beyond mere affection, it would explain all the actions I displayed after the battle with the creature abandoned by God.
Clinging to my arm while walking, pressing her chest against me, changing clothes right in front of me while subtly exposing her butt—if everything was just their way of seducing me, it made perfect sense. I never imagined that the Popes would have anything beyond gratitude for me.
“From the look on your face, Delta, it seems like you feel a bit guilty too. Right? I’m glad I came today. I almost lost you for real.”
I couldn’t even retort to Lize. She was right. There were quite a few things to feel guilty about.
Silence was an affirmation. Lize pressed herself a little closer. The large bulge pressed against my chest jutted out from the sleeveless top, and her side touched my arm.
“What should we do about our sinful Delta? I liked you first, and now I might lose you to other women. High and mighty ones, who, if taken once, I could never regain. Delta, do you enjoy carelessly flirting with women?”
“……I didn’t flirt carelessly.”
“Then you mean you did it intentionally? How nasty.”
Lize grinned. It was clear she wasn’t being serious; she was just teasing me. I humbly went along with her remarks.
“I never planned anything like that. You know my personality, right?”
“Hmm, I’m not sure. Your personality? The type that unknowingly charms women?”
“Charm? That’s—”
“You know your words carry no persuasive power at all, right?”
Her fingers pressed down a bit more firmly on my lips.
“Even the Empress had shown great interest in you, right? Lady Aurora treats you specially, and now you even have to add the Pope of the Sun and the Pope of the Moon to that list. Can you confidently say that’s not true?”
“…….”
“See? You can’t deny it either.”
I was left speechless. Hearing those words made me realize there were indeed a few things to feel guilty about.
The Inquisitor had personally come to the Holy Kingdom to invite me because of Kaiquilia, too. Aurora had a side she only showed in front of me, and there were no words needed for the Popes.
Even if I set aside Kaiquilia, who had an unpredictable nature, it was my fault for not picking up on the thoughts of Aurora and the Pope sisters.
I was under the delusion that they were treating me more specially just because I’d saved their lives.
“You look completely puzzled, Delta. You don’t understand why people have feelings for you, why they love you. Am I right?”
Lize chuckled and raised her finger to gently press against my lips.
“Right. Of course, there are loves that need a reason.”
Her face got a bit, just a bit closer.
“But my love has no reason, Delta.”
Those icy blue eyes were solely focused on me.
“The moment I saw you, I felt destiny, and that’s why I love you. That’s all. A grand reason? An order? Does that even matter? Love is just about me liking you, isn’t it?”
“Lize…….”
“Oh, I don’t know. Philosophical questions aren’t really my thing. I’ll stop trying to sound profound. So, Delta, what about you? Are you ready to answer my heart? Or is this still not enough?”
With that, Lize closed her mouth. The fingers that had pressed against my lips were removed. It was a signal that her words were done and she was waiting for my response.
At first glance, it seemed firm, and even if I rejected her here, she would gracefully accept it and step back. But in reality, the situation was different. Those bright blue eyes were subtly trembling.
She was afraid. Worried that I might reject her.
Of course, I had no intention of that. I didn’t want to play games, causing Lize more anxiety. I didn’t want to make any ridiculous excuses to turn down her feelings.
Since we were already at this point, I had to do what I needed to do. Resolute, I lifted my right hand and gently cupped Lize’s cheek. Her pupils fluttered and then widened.
I pulled her cheek and kissed her.
“…….”
Lize obediently lowered her head as I directed. Those blue eyes disappeared behind closed eyelids. Her scent filled my nose. Just that alone caused a reaction in my lower half.
The kiss was brief. No tongue was involved, and we didn’t mix our breaths. We simply brushed our lips together. For now, that was enough.
As our lips parted, her closed eyelids lifted. I could see her slightly dampened eyes.
“Lize.”
“……I’m listening.”
“I don’t know how it sounds to you, but I already knew your feelings. That you like me. I didn’t know why, though. It’s hard to miss when you cling to me like that, right?”
“Then why didn’t you accept me sooner? Did it have to be me making the first move?”
Lize lightly slapped my chest. It was sheer playful annoyance. Considering we had just kissed, all her worries and fears had vanished.
“I told you. Once the line was crossed, I wouldn’t be able to restrain myself. I would probably just want to roll around in bed with you all day.”
“Then let’s roll around in bed all day. How about that? Sounds easy?”
“……Was it really that simple?”
“Of course. Did you think I wouldn’t be able to accept that much?”
With sincere laughter, our lips met again. This kiss was a bit more passionate than before. Our breaths mingled, lips slightly parted, and tongues slipped in.
Two warm pieces of flesh intertwined in my mouth. Saliva flowed over the tongues. Lize swallowed it down without a hint of hesitation. Our mouths quivered.
When our intertwined tongues unraveled and our lips once again drew apart, my mouth smelled of Lize. She looked at me with a mischievous smile.
She seemed to want something.
“Why? Is there something you want?”
“You may not know this, but I don’t have a hobby of getting on top of men.”
“……And?”
“Are you just going to stay below me like this? Go ahead, being a man but can’t even dominate a woman?”
At this point, it was strange for me not to know what Lize wanted.
I grabbed her shoulders and sides and turned our positions around. Lize squealed with joy. The bed was so large that even after rolling halfway over, there was still plenty of space left.
We found ourselves facing each other, now reversed. I couldn’t help but notice the slight bounce of her chest from the motion. Although we were lying down, it still held its firmness.
Lize, lying beneath me, smiled brightly.
“See? How good does this look?”
“…….”
I stared at her in disbelief. Lize chuckled and continued speaking.
“Delta, would you like to know what my castle wall is?”
“……Castle wall?”
“Yep. In other words, it means my sexual preference.”
“What is it?”
A bit of curiosity stirred within me. If the woman below me was willing to disclose her preferences, there was no reason to refuse.
“It’s being devoured by a man like you.”
“What?”
“Starting out weaker than me, but then at some point, becoming stronger, realizing that I can no longer overcome him. And then seeing me not as a mentor but as a female. Being violated by a man who views me that way is my castle wall.”
“……That’s quite a unique preference. Are you a masochist?”
“Maybe. I’ve never been excited by the thought of tormenting you. But I have felt thrilled at the thought of being tormented by you.”
Lize adjusted her slightly fallen strap.
“I thought it was such a unique preference that I might as well give up looking for such a man…”
“Did I fit that preference perfectly?”
“Correct.”
Lize raised her arms above her head, slightly bent her elbows, crossing them. It emphasized her armpits and chest beautifully. The slightly lowered strap was incredibly alluring.
She then began to intertwine her thighs, looking at me with a subtle gaze.
“So now, to this man, who is much more superior, strong, and looks at me as nothing but a female… what will I end up doing?”
A chuckle escaped me. No matter who saw it, the intent was obvious. Without hesitation, I lifted my arm and grabbed her enormous breast, which couldn’t be fully hidden by even half my hand.
“Of course, it’s about doing this.”
