A Story of a Male Knight (Not a Female Knight) in a Chastity-Reversed World ~The Girls Are So Afraid of Being Disliked That a “Kukkoro” Scene Never Happens~ - 14-15

Chapter 14: Kukkoro

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

When I looked around, it was the familiar garden of the mansion. It seemed that I had been kukkoro-ed again. I searched through my memories up to the point where I had succumbed. After Mother had acknowledged my wish to become a knight, my unique magic manifested. Then I had it checked by the Mikado, and we were attacked by bandits again afterward.

＊＊＊

“So you finally realized?” 

“Yeah. There’s no one else in the capital who could completely overpower a knight like me, who came from the Suito Territory.”

“If you understand that much then surrender quietly.”

“Not happening. Rather, how about you drop your cargo and run instead? Hey!”

When the bandit leader called out, one of the bandits emerged from an alley into the street. The bandit was carrying a pink-haired girl over their shoulder.

“H-help me…”

The girl with hair like cherry blossoms looked at Mother with pleading eyes.

“Well now, can the protector of the capital really abandon her own citizens?”

Since I didn’t actually need to protect the pink-haired girl, I had been just watching from the side. But then, my eyes met hers.

“Zukyunn…♡”

With hearts in her eyes, the girl twisted her body and easily slipped out of her restraints.

“What!?”

Catching the bandit off guard, she swept their legs and drove the tip of her toes into their solar plexus. Then, she dashed straight at the bandit leader—whom even Mother was struggling with—dodged an attack, and swung her foot up into the leader’s jaw. As the leader collapsed without a sound, the girl’s next target was me.

“Stop right there!”

Leaping lightly over Mother, who had raised her sword, the girl jumped into the carriage and touched me…Her hand glowed.

“Welcome to the World of Cherry Blossoms! You’re my adorable husband now♡”

＊＊＊

From there, it was a kukkoro scenario. Ugh…She squeezed me until I succumbed to pleasure again. If it weren’t for my kink, my mind probably would have shattered and I wouldn’t have been able to stay sane. But this time, I hadn’t just let myself be done in. Before being kukkoro-ed, I had fought back against the pink-haired girl with everything I had.

＊＊＊

“Let me out of here.”

“No. You’re going to be my husband. If you really want to leave, you’ll have to defeat me, okay?”

“Then I’m sorry, but I’ll have to defeat you.”

“Kyunn… So cool. Do your best! Here, I’ll give you a sword—good luck!”

When the girl said that, petals gathered in front of me, forming the shape of a sword.

“Your family is a family of knights, right? Of course you can do defeat me, right?~”

“Yeah. I’ve been training. I can fight you.”

“Ahh, I love it. Do your best!”

“Here I go!”

I had trained to the point of shedding blood so I would never be kukkoro-ed again! But within mere tens of seconds after charging at her, I found myself pinned down on the bed.

After that, I was squeezed again, and as the girl drank some water during a break, she spoke to me.

“See? It feels good, so let’s just stay here together.”

“Ugh, not yet. I’ll beat you and get out of here.”

“Ahh, that sends shivers down my spine. I love it~♡ Okay, I’ll give you another chance to beat me—try your best!”

＊＊＊

Given the chance to challenge her, I kept trying over and over, and kept getting defeated in erotic ways. In the end, my heart broke and my unique magic activated. I never did magic powerge to win…But…

“Heave-ho…”

I did a backflip on the spot. Thanks to the practical combat experience with the girl, I had grown even stronger and that ability had been carried over.

“R-Ray-sama just did a backflip and his clothes flipped up, flashing his abs. And that pink…ah, that’s…b-buhii!”

Elsa-san let out a strange squeal and fainted from excitement.

“Elsa-san, are you okay?”

“Y-yes…wait, no! Ray-sama!? A backflip!? Just what’s the meaning of this!?”

Elsa-san was shocked by my incredible physical ability. Of course she’d be surprised if I pulled off a backflip so soon after starting training.

“Two weeks of training and you can already do a backflip—that’s impossible!”

“Huh?”

“Normally, you’d need way more practice or have to wait until your physical abilities improve in your mid-teens before you could do something like that!”

“Wait, did you say two weeks?”

“Yes! It’s been two weeks since you started your training, Ray-sama!”

I was stunned, frozen in place. But then I quickly remembered the details of my uniquemagic.

『After being ‘kukkoro-ed,’ rewinds time to a random point. Usable five times in a lifetime.』

Time rewound to a random point. In other words, it didn’t always reset to the morning of the first day of training. In that case, there were two weeks left until I faced the pink-haired girl again. Toward the end, I had been able to fight her properly. If I could train for two more weeks, maybe I’d finally win.

So I said…

“Elsa-san. Could you ask Mother if she can postpone the date of my test?”

With three retries left, “maybe” wouldn’t be good enough.

Chapter 15: To Avoid Being Kukkoro-ed

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

A night had passed since the time rewind. I decided to avoid encountering the cherry-haired girl.

She was around the same age as me, yet possessed overwhelming strength. After two attempts, I had come to understand that I couldn’t stand a chance against her in my current state.

Each defeat meant getting kukkoro-ed. It was fine because it was my kink, but with only three lives left, I couldn’t afford to recklessly challenge her. My dream was to become a male knight. If I used up my remaining lives before achieving that, I wouldn’t be able to bear the regret. 

So, I asked Elsa-san to have Mother move the date of the test. As a result, the test was rescheduled ten days earlier. This way, I wouldn’t meet the cherry-haired girl, so I could say the immediate danger had passed.

“Eh-ho, eh-ho.”

But I still started jogging as usual. I had only postponed the problem. The day we would face each other might come eventually. Even if it didn’t, there was a chance I could run into someone as powerful as her.

In this world, where the gender ratio was heavily skewed, kukkoro was always close at hand. Especially for someone aspiring to be a male knight. I had to train earnestly, and I needed to gain the strength to protect myself, even if I were attacked by a girl like her.

For that goal, it was clear to see that continuing as I had been wouldn’t cut it.

“Eh-ro, eh-ro.”

As usual, while jogging, I called back to Elsa-san, who was running behind me.

“Elsa-san.”

“Y-yes, Ray-sama!? I-I’m not getting excited by your sweat, okay!? And the reason I’m opening my mouth so wide isn’t to drink your bodily fluids—I’m just breathing deeply, that’s all!”

“I want to become stronger.”

“H-huh… Ray-sama, you’re already plenty strong. Besides, this level of training is already too much for a boy your age, and even for most girls, this training regimen is already quite harsh…”

“That’s not enough. I want to get much, much stronger. So…”

“So?”

“Can I ask you to give me even harsher training?”

“Eeeh!?”

I asked Elsa-san for that. I was satisfied with the training Elsa-san had given me. But that wouldn’t do.

Elsa-san’s training was full of restraint because I was a boy. At this pace, the training wouldn’t be efficient for me and I had no idea how long it would take me to get stronger. If I didn’t become stronger as soon as possible, I wouldn’t even be able to venture outside the mansion.

“But Ray-sama, I believe the training you’re doing now is already quite severe. Considering your age, I think it’s more than enough…”

“That’s not good enough. I want to become stronger!”

The cherry-haired girl was about the same age as me, yet she had acquired overwhelming strength. I was sure I could become just as strong.

“Ray-sama… I understand.”

Elsa-san stopped, so I stopped too.

“Will you make it harsher?”

“That, I cannot do.”

“Eh!?”

“Considering your body, I believe I’m already giving you the best possible training.”

“U-uh…”

“Therefore, I will absolutely not allow training that would place more burden on you.”

Elsa-san’s voice was deadly serious, so unlike her usual lovestruck demeanor. I could tell she was thinking about meThat made me incredibly happy, but even if I respected Elsa-san and continued like this, I’d only end up getting kukkoro-ed again.

As I frowned in frustration, Elsa-san smiled.

“But that’s only because it’s me.”

“Huh?”

“I believe I’m giving you the best training I can think of, but there are many people in the world far more skilled in martial arts than I am. Those people might know methods that would allow you to grow more without putting so much strain on you.”

I understood what Elsa-san was trying to say.

“In other words, you’re suggesting I seek out a different mentor instead of you?”

In response to my question, Elsa-san gave me a big nod.
