Saintess Arc – Chapter 38

***So, I’ve just finished HSR’s latest update, and woohoo, won my 50/50 and got a Sunday! Now I should still have some resources for Fugue! What concerns me is that did I just finished the story quest in a few hours? I mean, that was short as hell. Sunday joining the express crew was kinda foretold, but what will happen to Fugue? Please don’t tell me that was it? In any case, I’ll just browse through more and gather more stellar jade***

Chapter 38 Nude chalk body

(Is this really a good thing...?)

Iris was thinking alone in the large room she was led to.
This time, I entered into a deal with Geek against my will.
It had to be said that this was unprecedented, both for Iris and as a saint of the Great Holy Church.
After all, the transaction was a prostitution contract in exchange for medicine.
Originally, this was something that should never have been possible as a saintess who believed in purity.
But this time, Iris proposed the deal herself.

---That's because she thought disproportionately of Claire.
That day, Iris learned that Claire was being held by Geek in exchange for medicine.
Iris was distressed.
How can she save Claire?
How can she prepare alternative medicines?
Desperately searching for a solution, she struggles with the current situation.
And while Iris was doing that, Claire seemed to be continuously being held by Geek.

Even after that day when Claire and Geek went out into town together, Iris had often seen them.
It was different, sometimes in the hallway of the mansion or in the courtyard, but each time Claire was dragged somewhere by Geek.
After a while, the two reappear.
Every time Iris saw the two of them come out of the shadows, looking exhausted, a feeling of anxiety rose in her heart, and every time she saw Claire's weak, flushed cheeks, Iris couldn’t helped but felt a strong sense of impatience.
Iris wanted to rescue Claire.
However, Louis had not yet woken up, and he still needed the medicine that Claire had received as compensation for the transaction.

It was unthinkable to move Louis from the mansion.
The poison still spread within Louis' body, and there was even a possibility that it would get worse than it originally was if he were to be moved without medicine now.
That's why, given the current situation where no medicine was found anywhere else, it was essential to receive medicine from Geek, and they couldn't stop doing business with him.

 Then what should I do?
Even though Iris understood her current situation, she couldn't suppress her desire to save Claire.
Her first same-sex friend, a fellow traveler who fell in love with the same person.
She is sacrificing her body for Louis.
Despite this, she knows this and does nothing but pray.
As a saintess, or even as a friend, she couldn't think of that...

Iris didn't want to be the one who couldn't do anything about her friend's crisis.
That's why she went ahead with Geek and strike a deal.
Of course, she might have had something else to offer.
However, Iris was originally ignorant of sexual affairs and could not understand his thinking, as he would have wanted Claire's body in a state where he could demand anything in return for medicine.

Therefore, she offered her own body as compensation for him.
Claire was asked for her body in exchange for medicine. In that case, she thought, wouldn't her body be a sufficient price to pay?

Iris knew objectively that her body was what men liked.
When she appeared in front of the public, men's gazes almost always pierced her body.

A lustful gaze that tries to violate the woman in front.
Their gaze, which never seems pleasant to her, focuses on Iris's chest and waist, and Iris is forced to wear a thick robe to hide her body lines. was.

Even now, when she looks down, she can see her voluptuous bulge.
...Iris didn't really like her own body.
Her shoulders are not suited for combat, and she suffers from severe stiffness just by doing nothing.
Even though she has to fight monsters as a member of the hero's party, her body is too unfit for battle.
She couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Of course, Iris herself was not satisfied with this transaction.
Even now, she was trying to figure out if there was another way, and she was wondering if there was a way to take Claire and Louis with her and escape.
However, it was certain that such a convenient idea would not come up easily.

“Haah...'' 

Iris exhaled the air that had accumulated inside her and looked up once more into the room she was led to.
The room was too big to be a bedroom...
The bed was big enough to sleep 5 or 6 people, and there was a mirror in front of it.
The floor is covered with fluffy long-haired carpet, and the ceiling is equipped with a magic tool that emits a gentle light.
Despite the lack of decoration, the amount of money spent on each item is not small.
Nobles often spend money on ornaments.
However, there were no such things in this room.

In other words, it's probably a room with just that purpose.
Iris thinks so, but at the same time she feels like she's in a completely out of place.

(And there's something about this smell...)

Also, I was concerned about the smell in the room.
It wasn't a perfume oil that aristocrats would like, or an aroma meant to calm the mind, but rather it was a very unpleasant smell.
That smell, which even Iris had never smelled before, came faintly from the depths of the deodorant that had probably been sprinkled on the room to cover it up.

...It wasn't something I really wanted to smell.
(My hands are shaking... I'm nervous... no, I'm afraid, I'm sure...)

I slowly grasped my trembling hands and took a deep breath.
I was worried about having sex.
I had heard that a relationship in which thoughts are exchanged correctly can lead to a feeling of heart-to-heart communication.
However, that is not the case this time.
What will probably happen will be sex that is filled with pain and humiliation.
It was cruelly different from the pale first experience Iris had with Louis, and she felt extremely regretful.

There was also the fear of losing her virginity.
If the world finds out that she has lost her virginity, her reputation as a saintess will be ruined.
At worst, there was a possibility that she would be removed from the hero party.
...But even so, Iris didn't care.
If I can save Louis and Claire here and now.

Iris strengthened her resolve in his heart and slowly calmed her breathing.


◆


It was about half an hour after Iris was shown into the room when Geek entered the room.
Iris stood up to greet him, who was wearing a robe and had probably finished his bath.

"I'm sorry for making you wait."
"It’s nothing"
"Have you eaten and showered yet?"
"yes"

Iris responds curtly to Geek who tries to talk to her in a friendly manner, saying that it's only an agreement.
She was using the adjacent shower and eating food that the maid had brought earlier.

"Well, I guess you’re ready."

A vulgar grin appears on Geek's face.
That smile was so ugly that Iris couldn't help but frown.

“Saintess-sama don’t make such a scary face lol”

After saying that, Geek approached and lined up next to Iris.

"It's a long night. Let's have a lot of fun."
"...!"

As soon as he whispered this into her ear, Iris felt her butt being stroked.
She squeeze her hands tightly.

"...Please let me take off my clothes first."

An uncontrollable sense of rejection spilled out from her voice as she looked down.




"..."

After waiting a little while.
Iris was in the room wearing only her underwear.
Taking off her thick robe and her priestly robe, her body, which no one had ever seen before, was exposed.
It was as if the goddess's body itself.
She has smooth white skin without a single blemish, and silver hair that seems to shine on its own under the dim light.
Her whole body is plump, and her slender legs are as beautiful as works of art.
Her body is full of elegance, giving the impression that even if she were the only daughter of an aristocrat, she wouldn't have this level of elegance.
However, her breasts that jut out and her butt, which have a definite curve, are added to that.
――――That was too sensational for a saintess to possess.

Her breasts were bigger than any woman Geek had ever seen.
Her large bulge, which could not be hidden even by her thick robe, stuck out in front of her, asserting her presence.
It was so plump that it could be called a fruit.
Normally if it would be this big, it wouldn't be strange for some of it to be hanging down.
However, her body, which has been carefully raised as a saint and trained during her journey, maintains its integrity, and its overwhelming bulge hangs in front of her body.

And her butt exists to the same degree.
It had a beauty that Geek couldn't help but think it was stunning.
Tight and firm stomach area.
The line of her waist, which just started to widen around her navel, bulges out in a soft line, and just when it was still high, it suddenly turned into a curve that seemed to fall.
What that means is that her butts are of the highest quality, with plenty of meat and firmness.
Iris's white lingerie covers her body, exposing her figure that is too sensational to be called a saintess.
Claire's underwear was unsexy cotton underwear that prioritized her athletic performance, but Iris's underwear had cute little ribbons because she couldn't find any other fashionable ones.
She must be feeling intense shame at exposing her skin and underwear for the first time, and iris face turns bright red.

Iris' arms wrapped around her body, as if trying to hide some of her skin.
However, her slender arms weren't able to hide it at all, and Geek's gaze crawled over her body.
Since she usually wears an ascetic appearance in her priestly clothes and thick robes, her white skin felt quite immoral
But even putting that aside, her body was definitely first-class.
Her proportions are more than perfect, so it's easy to see why people worship her.

"Hey, you sure have a nice body."

Iris's face contorted with shame at the words, which were so direct.
Even for Geek, Iris's body was unbelievable.
She had a perfect body that even Geek who had been with many women had never seen before, and the only one who could compete with her was Claire.
Claire's body was also that of a warrior, so it couldn't be compared because they were different types, and Iris's body was overwhelmingly superior to that of a woman's.

Despite having such a body, she says she has no sexual experience.
A smile can't help but appear on Geek's face.

"......"

For Iris, it was a time that could be called hell.
She had never exposed her skin to a man before.
Along with this, she has hated the way men look at her body and has lived her life avoiding it as much as possible.
But now, instead of hiding over her clothes, she bared her body.
---It seemed like her embarrassment and sense of rejection were going to get the best of me.
While her strong disgust even gave her goosebumps, each minute and second continued to feel like they were getting longer.

"Look, there's no use standing around here. Why don't you sit down?"

After carefully looking at Iris from her toes to the top, Geek said so.
He smiles faintly at Iris, who remains motionless as she stands, and pats the bed next to where he is sitting.
However, the current situation is such that she can't stand just exposing her skin.
There was no way Iris could move after hearing his words.

"What, is it okay to stand for the first time? Then..."
"No...!"

Geek stands up and tries to approach her.
Iris's sharp negative voice stopped his movement.

"...I'm going to sit down..."

As Iris says that, a faint tear appears in her eyes.
Hiding her body with her slender arms, her entire body trembled with disgust, and she could feel how disgusting it really was.
However, even in the midst of all this, Iris continued to take her steps towards the bed, one step at a time.

"Excuse me……"

She managed to make her way to the front of the bed, and following Geek's pat instructions, she lowered her body to Geek's side, keeping her body covered with her hands.
A gap was intentionally left open with at least some resistance.

"Don't be so scared."
"...!"

That gap was quickly filled by Geek.
At the same time, Geek's arm wrapped around Iris's waist.
Iris's body stiffens.
Suddenly, the magical power of the Holy Spirit rises――

...However, Geek's movements stopped there.
His arms wrapped around her waist, hugging Iris, but he didn't actually hug her, just holding her waist.
...The magical power that had risen began to calm down.

Iris felt relieved inwardly.
Not only was this the first time I had shown my skin to a man, but my body was touched by a man that was not even permissible under the doctrine.
A strong feeling of rejection and disgust was still swirling inside Iris.
In such a state, she didn't know what would happen to her if her skin was violated by his lustful desires.

"Is this the first time you've been touched in your skin like this?"
"Y-yes..."

After Iris had calmed down, Geek spoke to her.
She's probably still stiff.
Iris's body trembled slightly, but she still managed to answer.
As expected, even Geek wouldn't want to mess with her like that.
He opens her mouth to relieve her tension.

“How far has Saintess-sama been taught you about these things?”
"What do you mean by this..."
"Of course it's sex. Even a saintly saintess would understand that much, right?"
"..."

Iris quietly takes in her breath.
Her fear must have been aroused by the way he spoke so directly. Her body trembles stronger.
A little time passed with neither of them speaking.
Iris opens her tightly pressed lips.

"...I heard that it's an act to make a child."
"Hmm. What's the content?"
"...I don't know the details. But... it's the act of inserting a male genitalia into a female genitalia and pouring semen into the uterus."
“So you do know that much”

At this point, Geek noticed that Iris's words were laced with a stronger sense of rejection than before as she lowered her gaze.
By observing her behavior, he could see why.

"I'm telling you now, there's no way you’re going to get pregnant through this transaction."
"……Is that so?"

A sound of confusion leaks out from somewhere.

"It's obvious. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to have sex so casually. Look here."

With that said, Geek takes out a ball of slime.

"Do you know this? It's a contraceptive. It's something that women use to prevent unwanted pregnancies. This one is for men."
"Huh...contraceptive..."

Iris was handed it and played with it, feeling indescribable.
It has a shaky feel and seems a bit unreliable in preventing pregnancy.

“Shall I actually show you how to use it?”
“N-no, that’s fine…!”

Iris overreacted to Geek's mischievous smile and pushed it back towards Geek.
And what she finds again is a state of tension that she can't let go of.
...The atmosphere, which had been tense until just a moment ago, seemed to loosen up a little after the casual conversation.

"Is this the first time you’re showing your skin like this?"
"...Yes..."

Geek's fingertips were starting to move.
His right hand was placed against her side waist.
It was slowly moving down and down as if caressing Iris's waist.
Iris' body tenses as his fingertips begin to show his lust.
Her side is gently caressed.
It wasn't as strong as she imagined... When Iris realized that his movements were just stroking her skin, her body slowly lost its strength.
Surprisingly, from Geek's fingertips crawling on Iris's skin, she couldn't sense any desire to enjoy the woman's skin.
On the contrary, the rubbing of her skin made him feel the innocence of a child, as if he were touching a woman's skin for the first time.

Iris couldn't be too wary of such an innocent touch.
Of course she knew it in her head. This is something that should never be accepted.
However, even though she knew that, his fingertips that actually touched her skin were pure and innocent...and Iris subconsciously accepted his fingertips.
After that, the conversation between the two continued.
It was definitely a one-sided affair, with Geek asking a question and Iris answering, but the conversation that continued certainly showed Iris's slightly dismayed vigilance.

Geek had completely changed his mind and stopped saying or doing anything that hinted at sexuality.
The topics that were talked about were all about Iris's life at the Church and her past adventures, and Iris responded with a sense of relief.

Geek was a good questioner and a good listener, except that this was not what he originally wanted.
He probably has a great ability to converse with people.
His tone of voice changes constantly as he speaks, so you won't get bored listening to him, and the questions he asks are ones that make you feel like he's really listening to what you're saying.
...It couldn't be helped that Iris's nervousness eased.
