Chapter 17: Phony
Chapter 17: Phony
"Furuya Haruhisa!"
Immediately after opening the door, Karasuma lunged at us with a big smile.
"I thought you were joking around! Can I really team up with Soya Misaki!? You’ve brought great boobs, ah no, a great proposal! Although you’re honestly in the way, Furuya, it’s fine if I get to team up with Soya Misaki!"
Karasuma stared fixedly at Soya’s boobs while taking her hand in a fluid motion.
"I’ve heard a bit of the story from Furuya! Exorcising spirits with a bang-bang while rising with a zoom-zoom, what great boobs, ah no, a great goal! It also matches with my goal of rising to the top of the exorcism industry and building a harem! You absolutely have to let me help you!"
"!?!?"
Soya widened her eyes in bewilderment as she watched Karusuma speak feverishly,
This fellow… perhaps because it was almost certain that we were going to team up together, she didn’t even bother acting normal anymore.
"But rising to the top of the industry is a steep and tough road. Although the strength of each teammate is important, teamwork is even more important. So why don’t the two of us have dinner alone to deepen our team’s friendship? Would you like to come to my room? Fufufu, even when confused your face is arousing…"
What did she mean, the two of them? Don’t leave me out.
"Um, Furuya-kun, what exactly… is this?"
Soya’s hand was still tightly held by Karasuma as she turned her head towards me, asking for an explanation.
"She’s exactly as you see. For a JK, she’s an extreme women lover, a sadist, and an incorrigible seducer."
Once I put it into words, Karasuma really did sound like a rather hopeless fellow.
"To tell the truth, she’s also aiming for you. Other than some warding techniques, I don’t think she can perform any other types of exorcism… her joining us would probably only drag us down."
Well, if Karasuma’s problematic attitude could offset Soya’s recklessness, I would be grateful. It would bring me closer to my original goal of spending my time doing only relaxing missions.
As I was thinking about such things.
Soya stared intently at Karasuma’s face.
"…hmm? So, we have a handsome, cool beauty who is also an extreme women lover, and a seducer… but is that really all there is to it?"
"Hm? Miss Misaki? If you stare at me that passionately, I think my body will start getting hot."
"Suuuuuu, haaaaaaah"
After she took a few deep breaths as if to prepare herself for something, Soya said,
"…contrary to your aggressiveness, you actually have no experience nor confidence. Isn’t that right, Aoi-chan?"
She then brought Karasuma’s hand, which had been tightly gripping her own, to her mouth and slipped a finger in.
What the hell was she doing!?
Doing that will only make Karasuma more excited and unmanageable! was what I thought while feeling shocked, however, Karasuma’s subsequent reaction shocked me even further.
"Hyeeh!?"
An uncharacteristically girlish voice escaped from Karasuma’s mouth.
Bah! Karasuma withdrew her hand from Soya with tremendous speed and quickly hid the part of her finger that had been sucked behind her back.
"That’s what I thought."
Soya muttered so softly as she trapped a suspiciously behaving Karasuma against the wall with a don!, slamming her hands on the wall from both sides, blocking Karasuma’s escape route.
"Aah, uuuuh"
As she was stared down by Soya, Karasuma’s face turned red and teary.
This was Karasuma! That supposedly helpless lover of women! What did this mean!?
"Listen up, Aoi-chan. I am serious about wanting to rise up in the world. For the sake of breaking this curse."
Soya removed her contact lenses and turned her heart-marked eyes towards Karasuma.
She then placed her hand on Karasuma’s cheek in a forceful manner.
"So, if you interfere with our work by doing anything strange to me or our clients… here’s what will happen."
Soya ran her fingers from Karasuma’s cheek to her ear, tickling her.
"Hyuiii!?"
Karasuma’s body jolted violently. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦
As Soya’s fingers continued to gently trace the grooves in her ears, Karasuma’s thighs trembled as they stretched out from her skirt.
"I, I’m shorry, I’m shooory, I, I undersdand…"
She collapsed onto the floor and burst into tears.
"It’s good if you understand."
Soya said, then briskly walked out into the hallway.
"E, err…"
What was going on here? Having no idea what had happened, I followed Soya to the hallway.
Then,
"Ah–, uuuhh"
In the corridor, Soya pressed her head against the wall, groaning as she blushed.
"Soya, what was that all about?"
"Uuuuuh"
Soya groaned briefly, then with her head still on the wall, said,
"No experience with either men and women, good at harassing but also extremely weak against being harassed, an erogenous zone located at the ears–this is part of what I saw next to Aoi-chan’s face."
Was that how it was? Come to think of it, the demon eyes’ power wasn’t restricted to men.
"I thought it was strange how despite being so beautiful and moreover, extremely aggressive, she had zero experience. So I wondered, could she be the type that shrunk back when it really came down to it? A wimpy, phony sadist? So I decided to try… that."
I personally suspected that the main reason why Karasuma had zero experience was that she was an idiot… however, Soya had guessed correctly and caused Kurusama to end up in that state.
"It had been so embarrassing, but… for now, I think this will help us keep Aoi-chan under control."
Soya said while fanning her flushed neck.
Going through such an embarrassing experience just for the sake of the team… I had already known this, but Soya’s determination to break her curse was not half-hearted.
I went back to the classroom to check on Karasuma.
As soon as I entered, Karasuma hurriedly straightened up her appearance and tried to put on her usual dignified demeanor, 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
"H, hm. So it’s you Furuya? Oh, I don’t know, Miss Soya Misaki is an extremely attractive woman and all but our sexual dispositions just don’t match. I don’t think she’s very compatible with me. I wouldn’t want to cause trouble for Miss Soya Misaki because of a sexual mismatch. Wouldn’t want it getting in the way of her rising in the world to break her curse. I’ll be a gentleman here and back out of this one. No, I’m not particularly being timid or anything."
All talk and no action. She sounded like a childish virgin.
"Oh, did you stop crying?"
As soon as Soya entered the classroom with the blush on her face gone, Karasuma’s shoulders jolted.
"Ah, no, sorry for showing something unsightly earlier. Nevertheless, I don’t think that someone as inexperienced as myself would be qualified to join your team–"
"Mmm? What?"
"A, ah, no…"
Soya squeezed Karasuma’s shoulders as she tried to retreat and approached Karasuma as if saying, "You think I’ll let you escape?"
"You’ll team up with us, won’t you?"
"…m, mm-hmm"
"That’s great! Well then, we’ll be teammates starting from today, right? Aoi-chan."
Demon eyes.
Although they had no direct offensive capabilities like my climax exorcism, there weren’t many abilities as terrifying as this, were there? And that included the mercilessness of its user, Soya.
