I’m the Only Male Knight in a Chastity-Reversed World, and When I Enrolled in a Female Knight Academy, I Somehow Got Treated Like a Hero — Dominating with an Unparalleled Skill That Makes Me Stronger the More Sex I Have - 47

Chapter 47: Lacking Coordination

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

The next morning at the Knight Academy. The classroom was suddenly abuzz with excitement. The curious eyes of the female students were fixed upon Sophia and me as we arrived at school. Or rather, to be precise, their gaze was directed at our wrists. There, handcuffs emitted a cold radiance.

“Why are those two linked together with handcuffs?”

“I heard it’s to deepen their coordination or something.”

“Does that mean they’re together in the bath and the toilet too?! That’s way too lewd! No woman could keep her composure like that!”

“Ugh…! Just imagining it is enough to make me lose it…!”

“My panties are already soaking. I’m a goner…!”

The onlookers chattered away, saying whatever they pleased.

“As if being in the same room as Sophia-san wasn’t enough, now you’re together twenty-four hours a day with handcuffs. Just how far do you intend to make me jealous…! Kreto Brightblade…!”

As I ignored the female students who envied me for being tied to a man and spending time together, Catherine’s hatred toward me only deepened.

“…I feel like I’m being humiliated.”

Exposed to the inquisitive eyes of everyone around her, Sophia’s face was beet red. Being the center of attention in this manner clearly wasn’t her intention.

“Kreto-san, why do you seem so unfazed?”

“Because I’m used to it.”

Ever since I entered the Knight Academy, I had been constantly exposed to curious stares. I wouldn’t be shaken by something like this at this stage.

“Well, you’ll get used to it soon enough.”

“I don’t want to get used to it!”

“Yo. How’s it going? How are you holding up?”

Berga and Frau, who were similarly handcuffed together, called out to us.

“Has your bond deepened even a little?”

“No. If anything, the rift has deepened.”

Sophia muttered grumpily, looking dissatisfied. She was likely remembering what happened yesterday. 

☆☆☆

My memory traveled back to yesterday, to the very start of our handcuffed life. The arrangement was meant to deepen our coordination, but it proved to be extremely difficult from the very beginning. First of all, our strides didn’t match. My stride was longer than Sophia’s, and my walking speed was faster.

『Kreto-san, could you please walk a little slower?』

『You should be the one to match me.』

『No, I believe the faster person should adjust to the slower one.』

『…That’s probably because your thighs are too fat.』

『Excuse me?』

The situation became touch-and-go, and we were only stopped by a student passing nearby. If not for that, it would have turned into a bloody conflict by now.

Mealtime was also inconvenient. With my right hand bound, I couldn’t hold chopsticks or a fork, and Sophia, with her left hand bound, couldn’t hold her dishes. When I tried to use a fork or chopsticks with my non-dominant hand, I kept dropping things, and Sophia ended up spilling food because she couldn’t steady her plate. The real problems, however, were the bath and the toilet.

First, regarding the bath…

『There is no way we are getting in together!』

That was the first thing out of Sophia’s mouth, her voice raised in protest.

『Then are you going to skip bathing? Even though you worked up a sweat during training earlier?』

『Ugh… T-That’s…』

Sophia faltered. I knew she was a stickler for cleanliness. I also knew that her daily bath was her greatest pleasure. So, I decided to shake her resolve.

『Well, I don’t mind either way. I’m used to living in the mountains with Cassandra. But you aren’t, are you?』

『…………』

『Are you okay with everyone in class thinking you smell?』

Sophia must have imagined the scene.

『…Fine, let’s just go in.』

In the end, she gave in, and we headed for the bath. We both undressed and stepped into the bathroom of our room.

『Wait! Why are you naked?!』

『Hmm?』

The moment Sophia saw my appearance, she looked utterly distraught.

『I have a towel wrapped around my waist, don’t I?』

『Please hide your upper body properly too!』

Ah, I see.

In terms of my previous life, this situation was like a girl being completely topless while sharing a bath with a boy. Perhaps it was a bit too stimulating for Sophia.

『I don’t really mind being seen, though.』

『I’m the one who minds!』

『Either way, when it comes to washing our bodies, we’ll have to expose our naked forms. In that case, it’s better to just start out like this.』

More importantly…

『Why are you hiding yourself?』

Sophia had a bath towel wrapped around her body.

『Isn’t it obvious? It’s because I hate being seen.』

『You’re a rare one. All the other girls in this world think nothing of exposing themselves in front of men.』

It wasn’t uncommon for girls to spend time half-naked in the classroom after physical education practice just because it was hot, regardless of whether I was there or not.

『Besides, my body isn’t exactly something fit to show to others…』

『Is that so? I think you have a great body.』

I told her exactly what I thought.

『I’m the one who held you, so I can say that with confidence.』

『~~~!』

Sophia turned red and panicked, directed an angry look at me as she asked, 『How can you say things like that with such a straight face…!』

Anyway, we proceeded to wash our bodies.  While one person washed, the other kept their eyes covered. Because of the handcuffs, there were spots we couldn’t wash properly by ourselves. After some discussion, we agreed to help each other for those parts only.

The toilet was also an ordeal. Especially in the middle of the night. At that time, the toilet in our room happened to be out of order, so we had to go to the communal toilet in the dormitory. Since Sophia was easily frightened, she was trembling the whole time.

By the way, when you’re handcuffed together, you naturally end up sleeping in the same bed. When that happens, your bodies are pressed against each other.

Because of that, she probably hardly slept at all yesterday. Sophia had dark circles under her eyes. She was still far too innocent. At any rate, only a day had passed, but this wasn’t exactly deepening our coordination. If anything, things were more awkward than before.

☆☆☆

“Oof. Maybe that treatment was a bit too dramatic for you two.”

Berga gave a wry smile after hearing the whole story.

“How was it for you guys, Berga?”

“We didn’t have any problems at all. No stress to speak of.”

“I even feel like I want these days to continue forever, yes.”

Frau’s skin was glowing. She was the complete opposite of Sophia.

“Well, I didn’t expect things to go perfectly from the start. You’ll get used to it bit by bit. It’s fine. I know you guys can do it.”

Berga remained optimistic to the end.

I really hope she’s right…
