Chapter 78: A Date with Ys – Part 2

【Tatsumori Haruto】

“Oh, you’re actually making some progress, huh?”

While I was deep in my training with the demon sword, at some point, Ys had appeared in front of my door.

“…By the way, that uniform looks good on you, Ys.”

“…”

Ys, expression unreadable, lazily swung a bottle of liquor in one hand.

“…Aren’t you cold in that?”

“You joking? I’m the Witch of Azure Flames.”

“Fair enough.”

Ys was wearing a short-length sailor uniform, obviously meant for summer.

Was it the uniform that was too short, or was it because her chest pulled the fabric taut? Either way, her exposed navel kept teasing my eyes—way too sexy.

That said, just because she wielded flame magic didn’t mean wearing that in this season made sense, but… whatever, I’ll just roll with it.

“…That thing, all you’ve got left is condensing the mana crystal, right? I can watch over it for you.”

By “that thing,” she was probably referring to the sword in my hand. Training with a demon sword wasn’t something you could progress in without a mentor, so her offer was more than welcome, but—

“Uh, I appreciate it and all, but… weren’t we supposed to be going on a date today?”

Yeah, today was supposed to be my date with Ys.

She had been sulking hard earlier, but since she showed up in my room, I figured she’d finally come around to it… considering she even changed outfits.

“We’re stuck in this underground cell. What else is there to do?”

“…Huh. Now that I think about it, we really can’t go anywhere today, huh?”

I’d gotten so used to these daily dates that I completely forgot—Ys and I were still prisoners in this underground cell.

The only reason I’d been able to leave up until now was because my date partner for the day had been a witch who could take me outside.

But today, Ys was my date, and since she couldn’t leave… obviously, neither could I.

“…Sorry I can’t take you around like I did with the other girls.”

“…No, I didn’t mean it like that.”

“Oh yeah? You sure seemed to be having a great time with the rest of them, though.”

“Wha— Who told you that…?”

Ys didn’t have many ways to get information from the outside. Either Scarlet, who brought our meals, told her, or someone else who visited the underground cell did. Maybe whoever brought her that date uniform?

Either way, if she was bringing this up now, it meant she was still sulking after all.

Ys had somehow convinced herself that we were engaged. Obviously, she wouldn’t be thrilled about me going on dates with other witches.

That said, Ys was ridiculously self-confident and annoyingly positive.

“Haruto’s totally into me! No way he’s looking at anyone else! Gahaha!!”

…wouldn’t be a weird thing for her to think. So why was she acting like this—?

“You banged Bubblegum, didn’t you?”

“…Come again?”

What did she just say? Bubblegum and I… what?

“Don’t play dumb! Even though you already have me, you went and screwed around with that tiny forehead monster, didn’t you?!”

For the first time in a while, Ys raised her voice in anger. The sheer volume and absurdity of what she was saying almost fried my brain.

“N-No, no, no!! What the hell are you talking about, Ys!? There’s no way I’d do something like that with Bubblegum!!”

I thought back to my date with Bubblegum the other day.

Sure, she was unbelievably suggestive. She did this and that… and I did this and that… but we definitely didn’t cross the line.

Who the hell started that baseless rumor?!

…Okay, well, maybe it wasn’t entirely baseless, but still—!

“Oh? So you’re saying Bubblegum lied to me?”

“That’s exactly what I’m saying!!”

Bubblegum, you little—!!

“…So, you didn’t do it?”

“I did not!!”

So in other words… Ys had been sulking because she thought I had actually slept with Bubblegum?

“That damn Bubblegum… I’m gonna kill her.”

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, the misunderstanding’s cleared up now! No need for murder!”

“Tch, and you, Haruto! If you didn’t do anything wrong, you should’ve told me from the start!”

With her mood seemingly restored, Ys finally stepped into the room and wrapped an arm around my shoulders.

…Her very ample chest pressing against me.

“…I mean, even if you say that…”

What, am I supposed to head straight to her cell after every date and scream out a full report? That’s insane.

Not to mention, I did kiss Scarlet. Bubblegum and I did some pretty risky things. And with Lilac, we straight-up got into S&M play.

There was definitely some questionable stuff going on…

“Oh? Sounds like you do have something to hide!”

“…W-Well, I guess… it’d be a lie to say I don’t, yeah.”

Lying to Ys would be easy, but it’d just come back to bite me in a couple of days.

If I wanted to survive this, I had to be honest—while also carefully sugarcoating the truth.

“…Hah, gotta give you props for owning up to it. Alright, spill it.”

Ys’ hand, still on my shoulder, suddenly clenched my arm like a vice. My veins felt like they were about to burst.

“…W-Well, I, uh… kissed Scarlet.”

“…Hoh. Tongue?”

What kind of question is that?!

“I-I didn’t insert anything! Really, just our lips touched, like… chu…”

Why do I have to say this? It feels like I’m explaining infidelity, even though I don’t have a girlfriend. It’s embarrassing, sad, and confusing.

“Hmph, then I win! No problem!”

“What do you mean…?”

Is there winning or losing in a kiss? Maybe she’s referring to that time after the bath when she forced me to drink water?

I guess it was a pretty intense kiss, but in terms of the situation, Scarlet definitely wins…

“What about the rest?”

“W-well, with Bubblegum, I mean, we did more than just kiss…”

“……That thieving forehead! She dared to lay hands on my Haruto! How daring!”

Ys, who was calm until now, started trembling with anger.

Blue flames leaked from her mouth, and her tail slammed into the cobblestones, cracking them.

“B-but it was forced with magic! I resisted, but…”

“……I’m doing it now!”

“……What are you doing?”

“What Bubblegum did, we’re going to do it too!! To even the score!”

“W-wait, did you hear me? It was forced…”

“Stop making excuses! If I force it, there’s no problem!!”

“W-wait, stop, it hurts!?”

────The dungeon, of course, has no windows. The hall only has a few small lights along the walls, so it’s always dim.

My room is dark now, with only a faint light seeping through the broken door, barely holding back the darkness.

“……Seriously… you did this with Bubblegum?”

“……Against my will, but yes. Ys, we should stop this…”

“Y-You idiot! Don’t be a coward! Just keep going!”

────Bubblegum can manipulate electricity with magic.

She converts magic into electrical signals to control others, making my body move on its own and forcing me to do embarrassing things.

Afterward, she said, “If your magic was active, it wouldn’t have worked,” but it was too late.

Anyway, to recreate what happened with Bubblegum, I have to do those things to Ys.

“Sigh, I’ll continue, but don’t suddenly hit me, okay?”

“Who would do that…? Wait, not there…”

“……I also said ‘no’ and ‘wait’ to bubble gum but she continued anyway.”

“You Idiot, really, that spot is… sensitive, so…”

Hmm, I gave her a rough outline beforehand, but Ys’ acting is impressive. She’s uncharacteristically sultry.

Though what we’re doing is incredibly lewd, I’m constantly worried she’ll snap and punch me.

Maybe that’s why it doesn’t feel erotic at all—it’s more like defusing a bomb.

“Alright, next from behind. I’ll move your body.”

“……W-what, this position… that forehead… ah, wait, Haruto, hold on, hold on!”

Still, Bubblegum resisted a bit, but Ys’ reaction is a bit over the top. Her speech is even breaking a little—it’s kind of cute… maybe.

────After about two hours of recreating Bubblegum’s date, as sweaty Ys insisted, we ended up recreating the date with Lilac too.

Maybe I should have just trained with the magic sword peacefully…
