I Reincarnated as a Mob in a Depressing Erotic Video Game World. When I Saved the Main Heroine That Fallen Into Despair, Her Overwhelming Obsessive Love for Me Wouldn’t Stop. - Chapter 26

She’s fine anytime. I didn’t pretend to be clueless about what Ena meant.

Two people who are in love, alone in the same room.

There was no way this was just about a kiss or a hug.

“…Hey, Ena. Can I ask you something?”

I remind myself over and over.

My goal is to protect Ena’s smile. My own feelings come second.

“…Yeah. You can ask me anything.”

“Ena… are you okay with… doing something like that with me…”

“Hehe. Yeah, I’m not against it.”

She was smiling without any hesitation.

Ena is usually cute and innocent, but right now… There was something soft and slightly grown-up in her expression.

Thump. My heart couldn’t help but race.

“…I’m sorry, I asked that the wrong way.”

I took a deep breath.

“Ena… W-what do you want?”

“? I want to do what you want, Shiruto-kun.”

“…That’s not it. It’s not what I mean…”

I could smell her sweet scent and feel the smooth softness of her hands. Our eyes met, and I continued.

“Ena… do you want to do something like that with me…”

Of course, if I spoke only from my own feelings… I would want it. No question.

But… if I just gave in to my desire and accidentally hurt her… I would never forgive myself.

“…I…”

Her small and white hand gently touched my chest.

“…I want to. I want to try…”

“…”

Her touch was gentle, but there was a hint of something more as she traced my chest and collarbone. Her face was flushed, and her breath came fast.

“I… want to be yours, Shiruto-kun. I want you to mark me as yours… on my body…”

“Mark you… How?”

“To show that my body belongs to you… I want you to take my first time. I want to remember it forever…”

Her words… made me think about a lot of things.

But… There was no turning back now.

I leaned down and gently laid Ena’s delicate body onto the bed.

“…Kyaaa.”

“Ena. If you want to stop, now’s the time.”

“…No, I’m okay, really.”

She smiled shyly, a little nervous but also happy and excited. Then she leaned close and whispered into my ear,

“Shiruto-kun. Do lots with me…?”

With that… my self-control was completely gone.

I slowly leaned closer to her thin lips. Her long eyelashes closed, and just as—,

—brrr, brrr, went the ringtone.

“Ah…”

“…Ugh…”

We could’ve ignored it, but both of us were distracted by that sound.

It ruined the mood.

The tablet-like device on the desk was still vibrating. Trying to kiss her now… felt a little awkward.

“…Shiruto-kun. Aren’t you going to answer?”

“Ah… y-yeah… that’s right…”

It was the worst timing ever. This was pure torture.

Still, I picked up the device while holding back my frustration.

“…Yes, hello?”

“Hey, kouhai-kun. It’s me. Can you hear me?”

The voice coming from the device with the <Telepathy> magic was Ralthea’s.

…One of the heroines of “Magiaka,” and the student council president who had let me get away with using forbidden magic.

I couldn’t help but wonder what she wanted now.

“I can hear you. Long time no talk, Ralthea-sama.”

“Yeah, long time. You should be in class right now… but maybe you’re voluntarily extending your suspension?”

“Um… n-no, that’s not it…”

“Hehe, I’m just kidding. I’ve been watching you guys with my own eyes.”

Ralthea Embrace.

Her magic is called [All-Seeing Eyes].

Supposedly, she can see everything, even the future, if she wants.

“Now, Shiruto-kun. You’re with Ena right now, right?”

“Ugh… you could see that too?”

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to peek. But I do have the job of keeping order, so I couldn’t just ignore it.”

…Don’t just make things up, I sighed in my head. If she really cared about order, I’d probably already be expelled.

(And speaking of order… shouldn’t she have been able to protect Ena?)

I understood that Ralthea tends to do her own thing and doesn’t really care about others.

But… with her magic and authority, she could have prevented this bad ending. I couldn’t help but think that.

“Alright. Can we get to the main topic now, Shiruto-kun?”

“Yes, please.”

“Before that, just to be sure… Ena can’t hear my voice, right?”

“…Eh?”

I glanced at Ena, who was sitting on the edge of the bed. She was looking at me with worried eyes. I could safely assume she didn’t hear Ralthea’s voice.

“I think it’s fine…”

“Then I’ll be direct with you, kouhai-kun.”

From the other side of the device.

Ralthea took a breath and lowered her calm tone just a little.

“―The public execution day for Ena Refine has just been decided.”

―Huh?

What the.

Ralthea… What are you saying?

“So, Shiruto-kun. Could you come to the student council room immediately? And of course… alone.”

“…”

My heart was pounding like crazy.

Ena, being executed.

How… why… for what reason…?

“…Understood. I’ll head there right away.”

I turned off the <Telepathy> magic on the device.

I forced my breathing back to normal, forcing my cloudy thoughts to calm down.

“Shiruto-kun… that was Ralthea-sama just now, right…?”

“…, yeah.”

“What’s wrong…? Shiruto-kun… your face looks really scary…?”

Even if she said that, I couldn’t fake a smile.

Because… execution… that’s insane.

(…First, I need to hear the reason from Ralthea…)

Ah.

Why does this world… always… try to get in the way of Ena’s, my beloved girl’s, happiness?

I must have gotten lost in the sweet time I spent with her and forgot one thing.

This world isn’t a video game. Time still keeps moving even after the ending.

That means there’s no easy way to escape the harsh fate that awaits Ena.
