The Female Hero Party That Exiled Me, All of Them Are Mentally Broken - Chapter 15

A fresh morning breeze blew through the lively main street as I walked along.

The earthy smell of colorful vegetables lined up along the roadside mixed with the chatter of people passing by, hitting my ears in a pleasant way.

The embarrassment from yesterday’s cross-dressing incident still smoldered deep in my chest.

But the overwhelming power of the [Hero’s Lustful Nature <Pervert Boost>Hero’s Lustful Nature <Pervert Boost>] that had smashed that huge monster in a single strike was real.

Until now, I had always been someone who was either protected by others or just gave buffs from behind to support them.

Now, I could protect everyone in the town with my own strength.

“Alphonse-kun.”

Someone called out to me.

“Granny Yao…”

At her vegetable stand, the kind old lady who always treated me warmly reached out and held my hand with her wrinkled hands.

“Thank you so much for protecting the town yesterday.”

Feeling her earthy and warm hands, a burning feeling rose in my chest.

(I… with my own power… I was able to protect the people of this town…)

“What’s the matter, Alphonse-kun? Why do you look so sad…?”

“Huh?”

Granny Yao leaned in with her face full of worry as she looked at me.

“When things are hard, you can always talk to me, okay? I may not be able to fix everything, but it’ll help to share what’s on your mind.”

“…”

She’s such a kind grandma. There are people like her in this town.

If I have this power, I can let people like Granny Yao live more peacefully.

“Thank you. I’m fine.”

“I see. Don’t push yourself too hard.”

“Yeah.”

I waved goodbye to Granny Yao and walked on.

As I walked, I thought quietly to myself.

Even if the way I get this power isn’t ideal, I still want the power to save someone.

I clenched my fist tightly, and at that moment.

“See?”

Suddenly, a cold voice slithered across the ground from my feet.

“Waaah!”

I stumbled back in surprise and plopped down onto the cobblestones.

Out of nowhere, Yuria slithered out from the dark shadow at my feet and my own shadow!

“I thought you were gone all this time… and you were hiding there? That’s scary, stop it!”

“I’m sorry. I thought if I was always around you lately, you might get annoyed. So I hid in your shadow for a bit.”

Her affection was a little too intense, almost like she was acting a bit obsessively.

Yuria’s golden hair swayed as she leaned close to my neck. Her familiar sweet soap scent filled the air.

“Hey, Al. You still want to get stronger, right?”

Her blue eyes sparkled with mischief as she whispered like she had some secret plan.

“I do.”

I hesitated, but I couldn’t stop myself from letting out my true feelings.

“Right? Then, haah, haah. Let’s get naughty?”

Yuria’s heavy breaths and heated voice tickled my earlobes.

I knew that if I nodded now, my reason would be completely lost again, but I just couldn’t resist.

“Y-Yeah.”

Squish.

Squish.

The moment I agreed, Yuria’s face lit up with a hungry smile, like a predator that had finally caught its prey.

With a firm grip, she grabbed my wrist with her strong hand.

“Then, let’s do it. Let’s get naughty!”

Before I knew it, I was being dragged from the busy daytime street into a dim alley.

My back pressed against the cold brick wall, my escape completely blocked.

“W-Wait! This is outside!”

“Who cares? We’re getting naughty!”

Yuria didn’t listen at all. She pressed my shoulders hard, then her soft lips forcefully covered mine.

“Mmm!”

Smooch, smooch, smooch, smooch, smooch.

Smooch-smooch, smooch, smooch-smooch-smooch.

A nonstop shower of deep, intense kisses rained down, leaving me barely able to breathe.

Every time our lips met, the sweet taste of her mouth and her hot breath mixed together, and it made my head tingle.

As the price for gaining my strength, Yuria was slowly melting away all my reason here in this dim alley.
