My Classmate Became My Familiar - Chapter 1.2 - Fujiwara's First Challenge

Chapter 1.2

After arguing, Fujiwara and I ended up living under the same roof.

In short, we were sharing a room.

I used to believe that living with a girl in the same room would be super exciting, but that wasn’t the case anymore.

Why did I imagine such things?

“I know that we have to live together for a thousand reasons. Yeah, I’ve agreed to live with Ashiya-kun, despite my unwillingness. I don’t like it, but I can’t turn back. I understand that. Yet I still can’t accept the fact that I have to live in your room. It wouldn’t matter if it were my room or not. But seriously, look at this room’s poor condition. Is it a doghouse?”

It was the night before the new school term.

After we were let go from the hospital, we came home, and we were unpacking when Fujiwara commented with resentment.

I was taking her personal belongings out of one of the several cardboard boxes that had been brought into the room beforehand.

I stopped my work and glared at her lightly.

“We’ve talked about this earlier. I don’t want to live in your dormitory even if it kills me.”

There were three dormitories at this school, and all students were required to live in one of them.

Which dormitory you were placed in depended on your faction. For example, Fujiwara lived in the ‘Heavenly Palace,’ a dormitory built with funds from the East Branch to which she belongs.

This Heavenly Palace is more like a luxury apartment than a dormitory, with stores, a gym, a lounge, a large cafeteria, and a large bath house inside. It’s super luxurious!

On the other hand, the factionless and rootless people like me were supposed to live in the dormitory—basically a pigsty— called ‘Dormitory A,’ which was with the school from the beginning.

‘Dormitory A’ is a dreary wooden building that looks straight out of some abandoned village, with no defining features. If you were to set it on fire, it would probably burn better than other dormitories, but that was it.

In light of this disparity, I could understand why Fujiwara was complaining.

However, if I were to set foot in the Heavenly Palace, there was a 100% chance that I would get killed. I only have one life, and I want to cherish it.

“Maybe, Fujiwara, you want to see me get beaten to death by the guys from the Heavenly Palace? That’s so cruel; you have no heart. Those guys are from ancient Rome, where executing criminals was the most popular pastime.”

When I pointed this out, her mouth twisted in disgust. But she didn’t retort anything back.

Well… I guess I would have been frightened by her cruelty if she had argued with me on this.

Now that the nagging has quieted down, I once again start arranging her personal belongings and furniture in the room.

But… all of them were of high quality and looked like a rich person’s possessions. These were items that I could never afford in my entire life.

The way my room was being eroded by these various items reminded me of how a weak country ended after being unilaterally invaded by a strong country. Although, it was refreshing to see all the cheap furnishings being eradicated from one side to the other.

When the redecoration was complete, it was no longer my room as I knew it.

It had become Fujiwara’s villa.

“Phew. It’s a little better now, isn’t it? Oh, by the way, let’s change the wallpaper over the weekend.”

“That’s relentless.”

Fujiwara nodded in satisfaction as she looked around the room and sat down on the bed, which had been upgraded by about five levels, crossing her legs like an aristocrat. Maybe it was because she was in demon form with great looks, but she looked odd.

I also sat down on the plush sofa across the mini table.

It was soft.

“Well, then. Ashiya-kun. Let’s talk about the future.”

“It seems that it is impossible to cancel the contract with you for the time being.”

“That’s not what I meant. We have to share the housework and everything.”

“What? You are surprisingly concerned about practical issues.”

Although it is a dormitory, life here was more like living alone than with a group.

Except for the curfew, there were no restrictions, and on the other hand, you had to do all the cooking and chores by yourself.

“I’ll do the laundry.” Pointing her index finger at me, she continued, “I can’t leave it to you, Ashiya-kun.”

“Ha? No, it’s fine, but are you saying you’ll wash my pants?”

“… So what? Do you have a problem with that? Or do you want to wash mine, Ashiya-kun?”

“Hmm, I don’t want to. If I were to wash your pants, I’d be considered a pervert.”

“Right!” Crossing her arms, she said, “I can’t cook, so I’ll leave that to you.”

It’s true. She didn’t seem like someone that could cook.

Maybe they had to split work in Heavenly Palace.

“Don’t expect too much from me. I can only cook some pasta, rice and curry.”

“I ain’t a good cook either. I can’t even crack an egg, though if you want me to, I can try.”

“Stop right there… I’ll cook. Just don’t complain if it doesn’t fit your taste.”

“I won’t complain unless it’s gross. Also, let’s divide the garbage disposal, cleaning the bathroom, and vacuuming according to the day of the week, and then, let’s see… Oh, where to sleep!”

Fujiwara murmured and fell silent.

“… It’s okay, well. You can use the bed. I’m fine being on the couch.”

“Oh really!” When I conceded, she looked a little apologetic.

“S-so, I’ll take your word for it… Oh, I’ll tell you now! If you do anything naughty to me while I’m sleeping, or peek while I’m bathing…”

“I don’t want to. There’s no reason to worry. Relax and sleep in peace. Who’d want to mess with you anyway?”

“Hee~” I laughed it off, but for some reason, she looked serious.

“… Ha? It’s a serious and real concern that can’t be overlooked. How could an ero-monkey like you be a gentleman? Are you trying to look good?”

“Oi-oi! You will lament in your disappointment that you can’t even be taken seriously by an ero-monkey. Even if you’re naked and limbo dancing right in front of me, I’m going to ignore you and play with my phone, okay? Even with that erotic demon form, it’s out of the question when it’s Fujiwara on the inside. UNDASTAN?” [EN: Felt like it should be left like this.]

It was a bit too much, but it was frustrating when she misunderstood me.

I leaned my body against the back of the couch, tilted my head back, and waved my hands away appropriately.

I couldn’t see Fujiwara’s expression, but I could easily imagine how distorted it was.

“… He—h!”

After a moment of silence, Fujiwara muttered in a deep voice.

Did I really offend you? My heart sank.

But,

“Then, it’s fine. If Ashiya-kun doesn’t do anything to me, that would be the best… right?”

When I looked up at the sound of the bed creaking, I saw her standing up and looking down at me with a blank expression.

Gulp. It looked like she’s really pissed off.

“Wait, wait. What are you doing? Even if you have a problem with that, don’t resort to violence… No, I apologize if I was out of line, but please don’t be violent.”

“I’m not going to do anything terrible. I just wanted to ask you to supply me with magic power. You know that I needed a lot of magic power to restore my appearance.”

It seemed to me that she ignored the flow of the conversation, but I mostly understood what she meant.

“Y-yeah, that’s right… But promise me that you won’t hurt me.”

She grinned and nodded.

“I won’t do anything dangerous to you. But as you said, you’re not going to lust after me, not only in my original form and not even in this demon form. You just have to supply me with magic power without worry.”

After saying that, she sat down beside me.

We were so close that our shoulders touched, and the demon’s beautiful face came close to mine.

“Hmm?”

She was definitely making fun of me because I could sense the hostility in her smile, and it was not at all comforting. It was a case where I could clearly feel the outburst of raging emotions beneath her smile.

“O-oh, I won’t get attracted to you. Who would want to anyway… Hiii—”

She gently took my hand with a smile.

As our fingers intertwined, I felt a chill and the sensation of magic power being drained from the point of contact. Together with it, a mild sense of weariness.

“Hmm. It seems that hands alone are not very efficient. Don’t you think so?”

“Y-yeah”

“Then give me more…”

That said, she hugged me.

With one hand entwined, she put her other arm around my back.

I could feel her soft touch against my chest… What is this softness? The female body is such a miracle. No, no, wait, don’t be fooled by her. The real Fujiwara is supposed to look like chicken bones.

“Y-you know. T-this is a bit… Not that I’m excited by your body… No, nope.”

I pushed her back, but she hugged me with double the force.

“What? Why don’t you stick closer? Are you starting to get horny? You’re the one who made fun of me… Hehe.”

If it was just the words, she seemed to have a lot of free time, but there was a hint of anger in her tone.

This girl was ridiculed so much that she had become desperate.

There was no limit to how much she hates to lose!

“Nope, not gonna happen! But anyway, aren’t you the one who’s too excited? Do you have a lot of spare time?”

“Ha, Haa? No, I’m not. Rather, Ashiya-kun, you’re the one whose heart is beating stupidly fast…! I’m sure you’re excited.”

“I-I’m not excited. Rather, it stopped beating! Stop talking nonsense.”

“Then stop being so naive…! Put your arms around my back! Don’t keep your arms up in the air like a virgin! Or are you that afraid to touch a lady? Hehe.”

“Wha—!?”

“Come on! You aren’t excited. You said you could handle it, right?”

Fujiwara laughed as if she was somewhat proud of herself. We were so close that the tips of our noses were almost touching.

Her eyes were wide open, but they seemed to be spinning in circles.

She was acting cheeky. In addition to the overwhelming feeling of her plums, the magic power was being sucked from my entire body. My mind was already a mess.

I put my arms around Fujiwara’s back as she provoked me.

“I did it! Are you satisfied now?”

“It’s not like I want to be satisfied or anything… I mean, in this position, it’s so tight… Oh, God.”

Fujiwara straddled my thighs and sat on top of them, probably because her position earlier was too painful.

Thus, we ended up in a complete head-on hug.

We were sitting face to face. There was no space left between us.

The feeling of her whole body, or rather her breasts, pressing against me and her voluptuous buttocks on my thighs was just amazing.

Her reddened face, as well as the ragged exhalation escaping from her mouth, was truly dangerous…

A mysterious scent entered my nostrils.

I felt like I was getting devoured by this demon, who constantly appealed to all of my senses.

My brain was about to explode.

And would you please stop wriggling that big ass of yours?

“No, that’s enough! Get off me! This is bad. I can’t honestly tell you what’s bad about it, but it’s bad anyway because it is! Oi!”

“Ha!? I thought you didn’t feel anything?”

“I don’t. But you see, this is different! This body of yours is just too soft!”

“What’s that? You said you wouldn’t get excited even if I was in this demon form!”

“Doesn’t count. It doesn’t count anymore. I can’t do it! Your body is amazing! It’s arousing!”

“I-I knew that you were an ero-monkey. Don’t get excited about me! You piece of shit! Now go ahead and apologize!”

“That’s not fair. Shit, you say? I wouldn’t be excited if you had your original flat body.”

“Now you’ve said it! Let’s get over it! I’ve got a lot of magic in me, and I’m ready to recover my appearance! But remember this, if it turns you on, I’ll kill you. I’ll beat you to death!”

“Kill me then!”

“I’ll make you beg for mercy.”

Right after that, her body began to glow.

I turned my face away from the glare, and when I returned my gaze, I saw a purely Japanese girl with distinctive black hair. It was Fujiwara’s original appearance. She was back in her sailor uniform.

With tears and a blush on her face, she glared at me.

Incidentally, the mark of obedience was still engraved on her forehead.

“Haah— haah—” She breathed hard and leaned on me.

I admit that she was a woman because she was definitely soft.

But compared to that demon, her top was insanely flat. The difference was so immense that it was enough to make me cry. Her face was definitely in the beautiful girl category, but God, you’re too cruel.

The pressure of being pressed was reduced by 80%.

“Now, how do you feel?”

I heard her weak voice as she held onto me tightly.

“The firmness has increased. Of course, it’s still soft, but I can feel the core, your bones, more strongly.”

“What did you just say?”

Her slender physique, different from that of a demoness, was feminine in a different way. Her small shoulders and thin waist, which seemed like they could break if I hugged her tightly, strongly reminded me of the gender difference between her and me.

The weight on my thighs was much lighter than before. And if I wanted to, I could easily push her down… No, of course, I wouldn’t. But… It’s a metaphor. Seriously.

I don’t know, but it smelled different from when she was a demon. Was it body odour?

I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Rather, it was more like a peculiar comfort. Ah- her hair was so smooth. I guess she takes good care of it. Hmm… and her body felt hot…

In short, Fujiwara is very girly…

“No, it’s wrong!”

I grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her away.

“That’s it. I’m not excited, so get out of here. See? Hmm, I might have been a bit out of line, so I apologize. I’m sorry. I give up now.”

Realizing that I was starting to feel weird, I tried to lead the conversation away, feeling a little impatient.

But Fujiwara didn’t leave.

On the contrary, she hugged me more tightly. I couldn’t push her away.

She’s strong… Argh… This girl… It looked like even in her real form, her power as a demon still remained.

“… Huh! Why are you so impatient?”

Huh? Her voice was unnaturally calm?

“No, I’m not in a hurry. What are you talking about? Don’t interpret things so conveniently.”

“Haha!” She chuckled. “Ashiya-kun’s heart is right… here.”

“Ha!?”

“It’s beating faster than before. I can feel your heartbeat through my chest.”

Yabe!!

Fujiwara raised herself slightly and looked at me.

She twisted around on top of me, sitting uncomfortably, and her buttocks rubbed against my thighs.

“Fu-fufu… Come on. You should just be honest with me. Say that I’m very attractive, and you are too embarrassed to tell me. Say it. Then, I’ll forgive you.”

Her eyes were provocative. But there was a slight hint of reserve in it.

Her face was still red. But before I knew it, the passion she had before receded.

It was as if she was convinced of her victory.

“Ha? Don’t be stupid. It’s just that your chest is so flat that you can feel my heartbeat more easily. Ahhhh. It’s a misunderstanding. Now just get off.”

“I don’t wanna. I used a lot of magic power to return to this form, so give me more.”

And then Fujiwara rubbed her cheek against mine. Cheek-to-cheek.

What is this girl doing?

“O-Oi-Oi.”

“If you don’t feel that way towards me, it’s fine. Or what? Do you admit it? Mm-hmm.”

She was getting carried away!

She began to absorb my magic power even faster… Aa… Argh?

“Uh-oh.”

I felt sluggish all of a sudden.

Could it be possible that she sucked too much of my magic power?

“Fu-Fujiwara-san? Do you feel like you still need more magic power? Isn’t this enough?”

“It’s not enough.”

It wasn’t good. The more I looked at it, the less room I had. I couldn’t even enjoy the feeling of a girl anymore.

I was dizzy. I mean, we were exchanging magic power through clothes. Wasn’t that inefficient?

We were told that we should touch each other directly, but we didn’t at all, and the loss was too much.

It was painful. I was even starting to feel exhausted.

“Fujiwara, I’m at my limit. I’m running out of magic power. I’m dying. Seriously, get off. Please.”

“Ha? Is that how you plan to escape? I don’t want to. I won’t allow it until Ashiya-kun admits defeat. And I indeed don’t have enough magic power. If you understand, give me more.”

I wasn’t joking, you know. I could die any moment!

Fujiwara had gotten completely carried away. She was behaving like she owned the place, but I didn’t even have the strength to understand a word that she said.

Noisy!

It’s painful. I’m dying. I’m being sucked up.

I was losing consciousness… Oh, no, this was really bad.

Damn it. I couldn’t do this anymore. I had to transfer my magic more efficiently to satisfy her and make her move.

But what should I do? Direct skin contact is a bit, uh…

That’s right. How about… mucous exchange?

“Oh.”

Her lips were moving busily in front of my eyes. Her tongue wiggled behind it.

I unconsciously moved ahead, like a drowning child seeking help.

“Hey! Wha-!?”

Fujiwara shouted, pushing my face away.

“What are you doing? You’ve finally shown your true colours! You beast!”

“Y-you. Magic power, you want more magic power, right? I’ll give it to you… For real, ah… it looks like I’m gonna die soon…”

Amid my unsteady thoughts, I moved my face toward hers. There was no helping me now.

Nevertheless, she grabbed my face and used her monstrous strength to refuse my approach.

“But that doesn’t mean you can’t kiss me! Are you nuts? Stop, sto—”

“Shut up. I’m losing too much magic power through our clothes. We have to do this with mucus exchange.”

“No! No! I don’t want this to be my first kiss! I heard that the first kiss has to be more romantic… Ashiya-kun?”

Fujiwara resisted with a complaint, but I pressed her with the strength of a fool on fire. I felt the muscle fibres in my neck making an unpleasant buzzing sound, but I just hoped it was just my imagination.

Gradually, the distance narrowed.

My consciousness had become quite cloudy. I no longer knew what I was doing.

“Aa, Aah. Mou! Y-you have to take responsibility.“

With teary eyes, Fujiwara asked me for something. But I didn’t get what she was saying.

For some reason, little by little, her resistance began to weaken.

I was close to the point where our lips were about to touch.

Yo— Yoshi!

But, huh? If Fujiwara was trying to escape, there would be no reason for me to do this… Huh?

I didn’t know what was going on.

Anyway, I was going to send my magic power to the limit.

Just as I was about to do so, my vision flickered…

I was just about to take one more step when my consciousness disappeared as if I were melting into the darkness.

*

“Kneel.”

“Osu!”

On the wooden floor, I kneeled as ordered.

In front of me, Fujiwara was standing glaring at me.

She was completely back to normal. Before, her face was so flushed that it looked like it was about to explode.

“Do you have any excuses?”

She looked like a judge passing sentence on a treacherous criminal.

I pondered how I could get out of this situation peacefully. But no matter how much I tried to make my words sound good, I couldn’t seem to change her mind, so I gave up. It was impossible.

“Let me say one thing for now.”

“What?”

“By no means did I try to have sex. That was the Plank of Carneades. In other words, it was an emergency reaction, and from a life-saving perspective, it was inevitable… Ack.” [EN: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plank_of_Carneades]

Fujiwara grabbed my head with an eagle grip. My skull felt like it was cracking from her unusual strength.

I knew it. Though she appeared to have returned to her original form, it seems that the demon nature is still intact. I’m sure she was only Fujiwara in appearance, and her powers were the same as the demon. That’s just unfair.

“Ha?! What did you say?”

“Fujiwara-san, this is bad. My head will sink deeper. You seem like a pro wrestler crushing an apple. Oh, my mistake… It’s my mistake. My head…! It hurts!”

“Ashiya-kun? I almost had my first kiss stolen from me in such a stupid way, you know? I thought I was going to be screwed. How are you going to take responsibility for that?”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it hurts! Please forgive me!”

Fujiwara let my head go as if the pain she had inflicted on me caused her to calm down to some extent. Then she sat down on the couch right in front of me.

“Seriously! I understand that you were desperate because you were about to run out of magic power, and I’m sure that I had an unknown reason for provoking you, so I’ll forgive you this time. But remember, there won’t be a next time.”

“Thank you for your generous treatment. I will never do anything like that again.”

“Let’s forget about this. Nothing happened between us. Is that clear?”

“Yes, ma’am. But you know Fujiwara, you were carried away in the mood at the end…”

“Oh?”

“I got carried away! I’m lying. Please forgive me, please have mercy!”

Fujiwara let out a depressed sigh as I hurriedly shifted from kneeling to prostrating.

“Haah. I wonder if I’ll be able to start school tomorrow like this.”

“… It’s not gonna be okay.”

When I expressed my honest opinion, she took one look at me and frowned, looking truly disgusted.

“I pray that a huge meteorite hits our school…”

“You are acting like an elementary school kid who hasn’t finished her homework during the summer vacation.”
