I Reincarnated as The NTR-ing Scum in an R-18 Doujin, But For Some Reason, The Erotic, Big-Breasted Heroine Keeps Coming on to Me~ - Chapter 48 - Human’s Three Basic Needs

Chapter 48 – Human’s Three Basic Needs

We threw our wet clothes in the washing machine and warmed up in the bathroom. But it didn’t feel refreshing. I was just in agony…

I lent my clothes to Erika, who hadn’t brought a change of clothes. My size was so big that my T-shirt could completely cover Erika’s body. …The important parts were hidden, but isn’t it too lewd to wear just a T-shirt?

“Drink this to warm up.”

“Thank you. It’s warm.”

I handed hot coffee to Erika, who seemed to be holding back even more than me. If her body warms up, she will be able to relax a little.

“It’s surprising that Akio-kun would make coffee for me. I thought he was incapable of being considerate like that.”

“That’s rude… Well, it’s just instant coffee, though.”

However, I find that the hot water is in perfect condition. The coffee should be just the right strength. If it’s just instant coffee, it might taste better than Haaya’s.

“……”

Erika took a sip of the coffee. I also put my mouth on my mug. The sound of rain echoed well in the quiet room.

I wanted to ask, “Did something happen?”, but Erika probably doesn’t want to hear that.

If there’s one thing she wants from me, it’s to not ask any questions. I guess that’s what a “mutually convenient relationship” is for both of us.

“Erika, if you want to talk, I’ll listen to you.”

Even though I knew that much, I couldn’t help but ask.

She listened to my concerns before. She put my mind at ease. So, now it’s my turn to return the favor.

Erika was silent for a while. Whether she was pretending not to hear or just focusing on her coffee, I couldn’t tell from her demeanor.

I scratched my head.

It doesn’t matter if I’m rejected. I’ll protect her if something happens. Because that’s what I decided to do to everyone who became my woman.

“Didn’t I tell you? Erika is my woman. I will protect my woman no matter what. I thought I made that clear.”

“Akio-kun…”

Her wet eyes were directed towards me. Her eyes looked lost, but after another moment, Erika placed the mug on the table.

I guess she felt like talking. Finishing my coffee, I prepared myself to listen.

Erika is an older university student. To me, who’s only a high school student, she’s an adult woman.

Even so, my principle of protecting women remains the same. I want to help if there is anything I can do. That’s how much I care.

“I…got into a fight with Dad.” 

Erika slowly opened her mouth.

“He found me a fiance shortly after I entered college.”

“Fiance?”

I didn’t know there were such things as fiances nowadays. I thought that kind of thing was only in manga. …But now that I think about it, this is also a manga world.

“Because I wanted to live my life freely, I asked Dad to pretend that the engagement had never happened. Then we started fighting… I was rebellious for the first time in my life, so I couldn’t back down, and we’ve been clashing a lot lately.”

“I see…”

“No matter how many times we talked, he didn’t like that I wouldn’t change my mind. He kept saying things like, ‘Where did I go wrong…?’ Then he started blaming Mom for raising me wrong.”

“……”

“Now my parents are fighting because of me. I just… I just wanted to live my own life. I didn’t ask for any of this…”

That’s the last thing a child wants to see, their parents fighting…

Erika is older than me and is like a reliable older sister. She’s at an age where she can even tolerate drinking.

But even so, harsh words from parents can still hurt. Because they’re your parents, it’s all the more painful.

‘Why… Why would you do something so terrible? You’re not my child… My child wouldn’t hurt his parents like you do!’

“!?!”

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through my chest. I clutched my chest from the intense pain, as if someone had stabbed my heart with a knife.

…Oi, oi, oi. Give me a break, Goda Akio. I didn’t ask to hear about your past.

“What’s wrong, Akio-kun?”

“It’s nothing… So Erika ran out of her house?”

“…Yeah. It was hard staying at home and I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t have anywhere else to go, so I came to Akio-kun’s house.”

She tilted her head playfully, but her voice lacked its usual cheerfulness.

“I got it. Don’t push yourself too hard, even at times like this.”

“Ah…”

I pulled Erika’s head to my chest.

I stroked her head, being careful not to use too much force. I’ll gently pamper her, just as Erika had done for me before.

“Erika said we should keep it a mutually beneficial relationship. So rely on me. We can figure out what to do later. For now, let’s eat until we’re full, get plenty of sleep, and then we’ll figure out our next steps together.”

“Akio…kun…”

Erika cried quietly in my chest. She was really quiet and I wouldn’t have known if it wasn’t for the wet feeling on my chest.

It’s now pitch black outside, and Erika has finally calmed down. In exchange, her stomach rumbled cutely.

“Okay, you’re hungry, right? I’ll make you a huge omelet rice. If you can’t finish it all, I’ll eat it, so don’t worry. Did you know I’m actually a big eater?”

“Fufu… I know that Akio-kun eats a lot…”

Erika laughed slightly. Her cheeks were wet, but she was no longer crying.

I don’t intend to criticize anyone’s parenting. I just wanted to make sure Erika was truly being seen for who she was.

Was there something so important that it could make such a good girl so sad? It was beyond my imagination.

“Hey, Akio-kun.”

“What is it?”

“Please spoil me a lot today.”

“Leave it to me.”

After this, we ate a lot, fucked hard, and slept a lot. I learned that satisfying all three of a human’s basic needs could bring about a profound sense of happiness.
