"Cloud?! Is it because it feels suppressive being trapped inside!? I'm sorry! I'll quickly find a way somehow! So stop for a moment. Cloud?! Please… Cloud!!”

Her knuckles were mangled and her bones creaked, but she did not stop knocking on the door. She hoped that somehow her words, her signals, would reach him on the other side.

As a result…

♡~The room you cannot leave without having sex~♡

[Shh! It's happening!]

The text changed somehow.

It meant that all her words and the signals she had pounded out didn't reach him.

Ting-!

Neria felt her head turn dizzy.

She slid against the stone doors and plopped down to the floor.

– Agh… Agg… you… You heretic, you did it in the end!

Ramiel's groans could be heard through the crack in between the doors.

The outside noises didn't reach inside, but inside ones reached outside.

Just that, instead of Cloud's, it was Ramiel's voice.

This was also the arrangement of the Goddess.

Because of which, Neria became even more desperate.

‘Ah… you really did… you did…’

A desolate chuckle escaped her lips.

– Haangh! Ouch! Hey, stop moving for a second. Stop, you idiot!

Hurts?

Is it painful?

If it hurts so much, change your position with me.

If it's Cloud, I would have the confidence to endure anything with a smile…

She wished earnestly, but not like it was going to manifest into reality.

Her old, vague memories flashed by as she felt herself plunging into a pool of desperation.

Old memories of their childhood.

She had decided to become his blanket. She had vowed that she would protect him from all the woes that the world would throw on him.

It was difficult for a young and weak girl.

Many times, she felt her will falter.

But Cloud's presence always encouraged her whenever that happened.

Just like when she sprained her arm while practicing with the wooden sword that she had bought with her pocket money. Cloud caressed her arm gently, making all her efforts worth it.

– I'll put it back. Don't worry, it won't hurt.

– Alright. Ah, and don't pinch my breasts the way you did before, don't you dare.

At one point, she was caught wielding the wooden sword by her parents because of the calluses on her hands.

Those living and walking mockery of parenting ridiculed her, and haughtily instructed her not to engage in that kind of nonsense and to obediently get married and settled when she came of age. Neria and her parents always fought because of this matter.

Whenever she felt depressed after fighting her parents, Cloud would come by her side and listen to her grievances.

– Your parents are also thinking for your good. Anyway, why worsen your mood more with these issues? Say, would you like my special tomato soup? I have tried some new improvements.

– Really?! Ah, why didn't you tell me earlier?!

There were times when she would secretly slip into the mountains to fight mindless beasts. She mostly won, but there was a time when she almost died. That gave her a trauma, she felt fear in her bones. At that time, Cloud took her hand into his and looked at her with genuine concern.

– Why do you have to do that? It's dangerous! Don't go again. And, if you must go, take me with you!

– …Cloud, this may not be an important issue to you, but to me–huh?!

Cloud, who had just turned into a young man, tightened his grip, and for once said something serious with a shy face.

– That, I like how you praise the soup I make, I-I wish that we can always be like t-this.

That made her smile at him.

Because she thought it wasn't time for that yet, she eluded by responding with a light-hearted laughter.

But Cloud smiled broadly, which made her wonder if he already knew what she felt for him.

The smile that Cloud had back then, she could still…

– Hah… sex with Hero… Agh.. I like it…

Yet…

– Cloud… ha ha… I… ha ha… sex with you… Cloud… it feels good…

Wait…what kind of smile did Cloud had at that time?

She couldn't remember.

Why?!

She thought she'd never forget it for the rest of her life. So…why?

– Agh… Cloud… Cloud… More… More… Hah…!

…stop.

– Ugh…! Great..! I really like it..! Cloud… don't stop..!

I mean it, stop.

– Sex with Hero Cloud… I love it…♡~

“Please stop!!!”

Bang!

Neria slammed her forehead against the stone door. She didn't stop after once. Twice. Thrice. And even for the fourth time. She continued to bang her head against the stone door until the startled Ophelia and Eri hastily pried her apart.

Tip. Tip. Blood dripped from her torn forehead.

“Don’t spoil my memories anymore! My… don’t pollute my Cloud!”

Neria wailed with a messy expression on her face as she sobbed in tears. She hoped that it would somehow reach the Angel beyond the stone doors.

– Ah…! There… good, Cloud… I… heut!

But, of course, her voice didn't. Rather, as if mocking her, a obscene moan, more excited than before, passed through the crack in between the doors.

Neria screamed again, and again.

She didn't even know what she was shouting. She just spat it out, her feelings let loose.

– Ah… Aaaah…! Hug me, Cloud..! Take me in your arms..! Uff, hug me tighter, you silly…!!

Whether it reached or not was unknown, but the moans were still present.

* * *

Neria was the first to get tired.

Her throat felt parched from inside; she couldn't scream anymore.

As her body got weary, her anger, which was naturally burning with intense heat, slowly cooled down.

All that remained of her was a husk that seemed to lack a soul.

Ophelia, unable to tolerate Neria suffer any longer, comforted her by calmly stroking her back.

“…it's highly likely that even Hero had no choice but to choose it.”

"He had no choice..? Can't you hear those moans? Does it sound like it was happening against their will?”

“Neria, have you… have you lost trust in our Hero?”

"What? Do you know what are you saying?!"

Neria expression almost twisted uncontrollably.

Had she not been her friend, she would have held up Ophelia by her collar.

Knowing this, Ophelia also hurriedly changed the subject.

“Neria, the Hero we know, is he the type of man who would casually engage in a relationship with a woman he just met?”

“…”

“Answer me, Neria. Is he such a man?”

"…no."

Neria shook her head with a gloomy face.

Even if other two Heroes are like that, Cloud isn't such a person. He's honest and innocent, and more affectionate than anybody else.

He is by no means a person who targets women's bodies in pursuit of momentary pleasure.

“…was it really unavoidable…? Was it really the only way out of this room…?"

Seeing Neria's improved expression, Ophelia readily nodded her head.

“Neria, you should know, Hero is different from before. In a good way. He's stronger than before, and his determination has improved beyond comparison. Perhaps that determination worked this time as well?”

“…Is that so?”

A tiny glimmer of hope bloomed in Neria's heart.

Perhaps… it's really like that.

She hoped Ophelia's words to be true.

Just then.

– Crunkle!

The stone doors that had been firmly closed until now—opened, and Cloud appeared.

"Ah… just like I thought…"

"Cloud!"

Neria fell into his arms. Tears were dripping down her cheeks as she buried her face in his arms, his warm hand stroked her hair.

Neria knew instinctively.

—that it was Cloud's hand.

—that he was comforting her right now.

‘Ophelia was right. Cloud didn’t want to do it either, but he had no choice but to do it.’

Now that her tensed mind felt relaxed with the revelation, drowsiness drowned her.

Neria slowly closed her eyes.

…she fell asleep while still standing in his arms.

* * *

Okay, let's wrap this up.

I came out after a cool sex session after a really long time, and was promptly hugged by a crying Neria.

In the past, whenever my teammates cried, it was natural for me to first comfort them rather than asking why. Duh, old habits. So, I comforted her as soon as I was embraced by the crying Neria.

Soon after, Neria got silent like a ghost, and she shortly fell asleep.

While seriously trying to comprehend what the f**k was going on, I passed the ball to the other two, but they didn't seem to be in the condition to answer me either.

Eri was evading my gaze with a blushing face, and Ophelia was staring blankly at something while covering her mouth with her hand.

I followed Ophelia's gaze and turned my head.

“Hick~♡ Heut~♡”

I saw my favorite pigeon lying on the bed with her buttocks raised. As if she had not yet extracted herself out of the afterglow of the climax, she twitched from time to time and her mounds shook.

I carefully placed Neria down on the floor, walked over to my pigeon, and covered her with a duvet.

“Oooooo!”

Ramiel trembled, as if she had climaxed once again from the feeling of being grazed by the touch.

Seeing that, I realized.

I won't be able to enjoy normal sex for a while.

…f**k.
