My Third Life Is in the Future World! After Being Betrayed and Losing His Memory, the Former Hero Begins Sweet School Days in a World with a 1:50 Male-to-Female Ratio - 13

Chapter 13: My First Partner

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

I gently laid Maria-san on the bed, ready to embrace her, but…

“Um, might you be the one to take the lead, Ceres-sama?”

“That’s my intention, yeah.”

“It’s a wonderful idea, but could I take the lead at first? I’m inexperienced and may be clumsy, but I’ll do my best.”

“Is that so? Then please, go ahead.”

“Alright, here I go, ungh, phew.”

She gave me a light kiss…And then, with a lick from her lips, Maria-san began licking my body. A strange, indescribable pleasure coursed through me, like something crawling over my skin.

“It feels amazing.”

“I’m glad you’re satisfied, slurp. This is the Victoria-style bedroom technique passed down in the Francisco royal family.”

“It’s incredible…”

Watching Maria-san lick my body with seductive eyes, I felt a rush of excitement. And then…

“I’m glad you’re pleased. Now, shall we move on?”

With that, Maria-san straddled me and slowly lowered her hips.

◆◆◆

“Haa, haa…. Haa..That’s enough for now.”

“Haa, haa, you’re amazing. I never thought the day would come when I’d actually use this.”

According to Maria-san, this was a secret technique passed from queen to princess to please men, but in today’s world, it was sealed away long ago because “some men would rather die than experience it.”

She used her tongue, chest, and hands, making me feel good multiple times. I tried my best too, but… Doing it with Maria-san felt like I was transported to a whole different world entirely. I lost count of how many times my mind went pink, melting in pleasure.

Before I knew it, I had released inside her multiple times. Now, Maria-san lay contentedly in my arms. I might be an oddity in this world, but holding a girl like this in my arms didn’t feel bad at all. In fact, it made me feel happy.

“Is that so? I’m glad to hear it.”

Even as I thought back on the things that had happened so far, it was truly an amazing experience. I didn’t expect I’d get to see someone so noble and beautiful act so seductively…

“You’re really unique, Ceres-sama. You took the initiative to please me, accepted such lascivious acts with joy, and now you’re holding me so tenderly… There’s no other man like you in the world.”

“Really?”

“Absolutely! Most men hate even talking to women. On the ‘Men’s Exclusive Channel,’ even paying 10 million wen for a conversation often gets you a sour face, and you spend most of the time in silence. The last time I was bid on for 2 million wen, we just sat in the same space while he looked at his phone.”

“That sounds harsh…”

“That’s the usual response.”

“Um, can I ask something awkward?”

“Of course, ask anything.”

“From what you said, Maria-san, this was… This was your first time, right?”

“Yes, I was a virgin!”

Was it my imagination, or did her face twitch slightly?

“But you didn’t seem… In much pain…”

“Oh, the idea that breaking the hymen is painful is ancient history. You’re an exception, Ceres-sama, but normal men struggle to get erect. It takes a long time, and if the woman can’t handle insertion when the moment comes, it’s a problem. And missing a chance because of pain is an issue too… So, long ago, free hymen removal surgery became available upon request. Most girls get it around age 10.”

Is that how it works…?

“I see. Thank you for explaining something so awkward.”

“Um, Ceres-sama, if you like me, could you consider me as a candidate for one of your future partners? I’m a celebrity, so I can provide a lot, and I promise you won’t regret it.”

From what she said, I needed to have at least 3 partners and apparently, there was no upper limit, so…

Why doesn’t anyone go all out and claim more?

“Are you free tomorrow… Ah! Haha, it’s already today, isn’t it? Do you have time today, Maria-san?”

“I have work, but… Are you extending our time again?”

“Yes.”

Suddenly, Maria-san jumped out of bed. While still naked, she opened the door and shouted.

“Auntie, Auntie!”

“Yes, Maria-sama, what’s wrong?”

“Leave today’s meeting to the vice president. She can handle it, right? I have important work to continue here.”

“Well, that’s fine, but…”

“Then it’s settled.”

All I could see was Maria-san’s beautiful back, but… I guess that meeting wasn’t that important?

“I’m free now. So, what’s next?”

“Let’s sleep a bit and go on a date when we wake up.”

“A date? You’ll really take me on a date?”

“Yes. Is something wrong?”

“A date feels like a dream.”

“Then let’s sleep so we can go out in the morning.”

“Um, Ceres-sama, your lower half is getting lively again. Maybe we should go one more time before sleeping?”

“Haha, shall we?”

With a beautiful naked girl in front of me, of course I’d react like this.

◆◆◆

The school’s outing permit was handled by Maria-san’s assistant and so we were able to go out without any issue. Maria-san and I were on a date in a nearby town. This area was safe, so a man could walk alone without problems. But somehow, the town felt different from the streets in my memory.

“So, Ceres-sama, where are we going?”

“Maria-san, is there a jewelry store around here?”

“I’m not sure… Oh, that shop’s sign says it’s one.”

“Shall we go?”

“Yes… But, Ceres-sama, what do you need at a jewelry store?”

“Just come, come on… Let’s go.”

I led Maria-san into the jewelry store.

“Could you show me some rings?”

“Rings? What’s your budget?”

I could use the money Maria-san gave me, right?

“Can you show me something around 1.5 million wen?”

“Yes, for that budget, this section.”

“Oh… Rings have sizes. Maria-san, what’s your ring size?”

“Um, size 9, but…”

“Size 9, size 9… Oh! Can I see this one?”

This might be perfect. A cute design with a few stones, priced at 1.42 million wen. This ring was just right…

“Here you go.”

“Can I hold it?”

“Please, take a look.”

I picked it up and held it toward Maria-san.

Yup, it matches her vibe.

“Ceres-sama… No way!?”

“Yup, I’m buying you a ring. I think this suits you perfectly. Is it okay?”

“Really? If you’re buying it, I’m happy with anything.”

“Great, then this one! Excuse me, I’ll take this!”

I handed over my security card.

“Yes, sir… Wait, you’re a man? For men, there’s a 90% discount, so it’s 142,000 wen.”

I wondered why such a huge discount though?

“Why the big discount?”

“It’s rarely used now, but there’s a law to encourage male-female relationships by heavily discounting gifts men give women, like jewelry, women’s clothing, or bags.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Nowadays, hardly any men give women gifts, so it’s just a relic of the past. I’m jealous, though—a gift from a man!”

“Yes, Ceres-sama, thank you! I’ll treasure it!”

She looked so happy but to be precise, I bought it with her money and I received a 90% discount from the store too…

Oh, well. She’s happy, so it’s fine.

◆◆◆

We left the jewelry store and walked through the town.

“Watch where you’re going, or you’ll trip.”

Maria-san was staring at the ring on her finger while walking. She looked like she might fall if she didn’t watch her steps.

“I don’t mind if I fall.”

She said, clearly in high spirits. As we walked, I felt eyes on us. Just as expected from a former royalty. Maria-san was a princess after all…. No. It seemed they were looking at me? 

Girls in the distance were whispering and glancing at me. With these many eyes on us, we wouldn’t be able to talk here.

“Maria-san, is there a quiet place where we can talk?”

Cafes or restaurants would likely have the same staring, making it hard to relax.

“Well, since I’m with you, Ceres-sama, how about an LR? Look, there’s one over there.”

A small, cozy building stood there.

“Shall we go?”

“Yes.”

Why did Maria-san’s face turn red?

◆◆◆

“This… How does this work exactly?”

The small building was made of reinforced concrete, with a sturdy metal door.

“Swipe your security key, and the door opens.”

“Like this?”

When I swiped my key, the door opened.

“This is just like the LLS practice room.”

It looked like a place meant for that kind of thing.

“Hehe, yes. It’s rarely used now, but back when the gender ratio was about 1:5, these were built so men could act on their urges immediately. They’re called LR, or Love Rooms, and they’re completely soundproof, so we can talk freely here.”

“I see. Let’s get right to the point then. It’s about the partner thing. I haven’t reached the age yet. But I’d like you, Maria-san, to be one of my partners. How do we do that?”

“Really? I’m so happy… It’s simple. We can register now.”

“But you said it’s for ages 19 to 24, with three partners, right?”

“That’s just the government’s ideal guideline to get men who dislike women to understand them. They don’t expect someone to choose a partner willingly without coercion. There’s no age restriction for registration, so we can do it now. Since you’re still a student, Ceres-sama, we won’t be able to meet often or live together in a harem until you’re 19. That’s all.”

So three more years?

“Are you okay with waiting three years, Maria-san?”

“I’d never get a decent encounter even if I were to wait for three more years… Not to mention, finding a man as perfect as you, Ceres-sama? There’s no one else like you… Please, I beg you.”

“Then, Maria-san, please be my partner.”

“Ugh, thank you… Thank you so much.”

A stunning beauty like her was tearing up just to be able to become my partner. I definitely couldn’t accept this as the common norm…
