Gacha Addict in a Matriarchal World

Chapter 112: A Room You Can't Leave Without S.M. (4)

“How dare you use sorcery! What do you think this sacred undressing gamble is!”

“What, what?! Is this something to get so mad about?!”

I unknowingly raised my voice, and Benny shrank back quickly. It must be because her heart is currently fragile.

I felt a bit sorry for her…but what’s done is done.

Where do you think you’re pulling nipple patches out from!!

“Gahhh! Is this something to get so mad about?! Of course it is! I thought Benny would finally take off that unnecessarily sexy dress! But now, here you are with nipple patches! Why on earth are you wearing those instead of underwear in the first place?!”

“To wear this sort of dress, I had to wear something that wouldn’t show the underwear lines…!”

“And what does that have to do with taking off those little sticker pieces instead of a dress?!”

“Even if it were ordinary underwear, would you want to show me yourself with just three stickers pasted on?! That’s shameful, no matter if you’re a woman!”

Even by the standards of the male-oriented world, a woman in just stickers is a no-go.

For a moment, words of protest surged to my lips, but upon careful thought, it wasn’t incomprehensible.

Being clad in underwear in front of the opposite sex can be conceded, albeit reluctantly.

Wearing only panties in a private space isn’t that uncommon. Depending on the situation, one might do so in front of family or close friends.

But walking around with just three stickers? Maybe if you were alone, but never in front of others. Not even family or close friends are exceptions.

And now, Benny. She is being forced into such an indecent appearance in front of someone who is neither family nor an old friend, but a somewhat young, respectable member of the opposite sex.

I understand the idea of just taking off the nipple patches. That doesn’t mean my insides aren’t boiling with betrayal and emptiness though…

“Huh?”

I was fuming inside, but only for a moment. Seeing Benny’s chest with a protruding bump on one side quickly calmed me down.

This isn’t so bad either…

And within the regained inner peace, I realized. I came to a realization.

“Benny. Did you just say three stickers?”

“Now it’s two…”

Benny slyly covered her chest. I wanted to tell her to move her hand immediately, but that wasn’t the important part right now.

“Two means the upper ones…but the last one then…?”

“…!”

Benny’s face turned beet red in an instant. She stammered as she opened her mouth.

“Well…you see? No matter how thin the lines are, the clothes cling to my body so tightly that they keep bothering me…”

“No way?!”

Seeing no underwear lines on her butt, I had assumed she was wearing a thong. But it was even more surprising.

Benny confessed to me with her eyes tightly shut.

“It’s okay! It’s long enough to cover the back too!”

“What?!”

A C-string?!

Underwear that resembles the letter C, more like it’s wedged between the legs to cover the surrounding area rather than worn.

The shocking truth made me feel more motivated than ever.

“Alright. There’s no rule that says we have to start from the outside, so I’ll yield here. But we can’t stop now. Let’s go all the way.”

“No?! Why are you so determined to strip me?!”

“Isn’t that the same reason Benny accepted this bet?”

“Ugh!”

Benny averted her gaze as if something had pricked her.

That’s right. She, too, was pretending to play along but was actually anticipating my undressing…!

Benny fidgeted, unsure of what to do. I took her hand gently and spoke.

“Both you and I have clear intentions, don’t we? We’re interested in each other’s bodies, but actually getting into a deep relationship feels a bit burdensome, right?”

“N-no. I…”

“I understand. With Ellie and Miss Lydia around, it’s only natural for Benny, who has only two friends, to be concerned. Of course, I’m also mindful of the order, you know? If possible, I plan to start with Ellie.”

“……”

Benny, rolling her eyes around, was gauging my reaction. Even in this situation, she kept sneaking glances at my collarbone.

I had only taken off my leather armor, and my clothes were still properly on, so I wondered why she was acting that way… Then I realized that just as Benny was sweating, I was quite drenched too.

Benny wasn’t looking at my collarbone which she couldn’t even see properly. She was watching the beads of sweat trickle down my neck and disappear at the collarbone.

I slyly took the nipple patch from Benny’s hand and placed a coin there instead.

“Exactly three rounds.”

“What?”

“Whoever wins or loses, let’s just throw three more times. Do you know? A man has only one piece of underwear. Although Benny will be naked if she loses three times in a row… but the same goes for me.”

“…!”

Benny’s eyes trembled as if there was an earthquake. Her slender breaths became slightly rougher, matching her petite frame, and the heart-shaped patterns sparkled with a mischievous glow in her eyes.

Although she lacked the seduction magic unique to a succubus, her sheer beauty was enough to enchant anyone.

I, too, did my best to set the mood, not wanting to be outdone.

The image was that of a little devil. Despite being small and fragile, there was a sense of leading people into temptation with irresistible offers, befitting a proper devil.

Benny swallowed repeatedly, her expression dazed. I whispered as I gently stroked her hand.

“Don’t think about anything else. It’s just you and me here, right?”

“But…”

“There’s only one thing Benny needs to think about.”

I stopped speaking there and tugged slightly at the end of my shirt. Just enough to almost reveal bare skin.

“Heads, tails. Which side do you think will show?”

“……”

For the first time, a glimmer of determination appeared in Benny’s eyes, which had weakened after separating from Shadow.

“…Heads.”

“Then I’ll take tails.”

Smiling brightly, I lightly tapped the back of Benny’s hand.

The coin spun and soared into the air from the impact. Catching it mid-air, I slowly opened my fist.

The result was…

To cut to the chase, both Benny and I are still fully clothed.

Just fully clothed.

“Benny. Thinking about it calmly, I think we were both crazy just now.”

“…Yeah. I think so too.”

Benny lost twice. In other words, she had removed the other nipple patch and what could barely be called underwear, the C-string panties.

Is it because she’s only wearing a tight dress that clings to her bare body? The points that stand out clearly through the clothes, and the lower body that forms an explicit outline with just slight movement.

But anyway, she’s properly dressed. Because she only lost twice…!

And in other words, it means I lost once.

Just as I returned the favor to Benny, I left the top and bottom alone and only tossed off my underwear….

The uncomfortable sensation from below suddenly brought me back to my senses.

My goodness. What on earth were we doing?

Just as the promised third and final round ended, the question of ‘So what now?’ turned directly into self-reproach.

Although Benny was extremely seductive at the moment… We’re in a situation where we can’t proceed with the main event, nor can I back out alone.

Then isn’t this practically torture for both Benny and me?

Why did I put myself through this torment? There is still over 20 hours to go.

With a deep sigh, I lay down using the clothes I’d taken off as a pillow and said,

“Haa… It feels like I’m suddenly having a moment of clarity.”

“What? How would you know about that, Jonah…?”

“Yes? About what? A moment of clarity?”

“That. You know? When a woman takes care of herself alone and suddenly feels empty and self-loathing. Do men not have those moments?”

“Ah….”

Men on the Pan Continent have a weak sex drive. To put it simply, they are almost always in a state of clarity.

Because of this, there is no specific state that can be classified as a moment of clarity.

On the other hand, since women’s sexual desire has increased, they will feel not only emotional fluctuations but also physical ones more intensely.

In other words, during the moment of clarity, they would feel it similarly or even more severely than men on Earth.

I chuckled at the common sense of a world I had never thought about and opened my mouth.

“Other men might not have it, but I do.”

“Huh?”

“Not all the rumors about the Pinkettes are lies, you know.”

“Gasp…!

Benny swallowed hard and asked in a cautious, but expectant voice.

“Th-then, is it true that pink-haired men have their entire bodies as erogenous zones?”

“…That’s nonsense. At that level, daily life would be impossible.”

As I looked at her with a pitying gaze, Benny covered her face with her hand and curled up.

She seemed embarrassed.

“Well…it’s true that my sexual desire is strong, so maybe that’s why it got exaggerated? I can get it up much more easily than other men, and it lasts longer too.”

“Get it up…lasts longer….”

Benny muttered to herself, curling up even more. At this point, she almost looked like a half-rolled pill bug.

It seemed the topic was too stimulating for Benny, who was already mentally softened.

Talking about naughty things might make her go on a rampage again, so I decided to subtly change the subject.

“Benny. Come to think of it, I have a question.”

“Huh? What is it?”

“Benny, you learned this time that you become weaker without Shadow, right? Do you still want to sever your connection with Shadow?”

“……”

Benny closed her mouth tightly and pondered. After a long silence, she nodded slowly.

“…Yes.”

Then, she straightened her curled-up body and looked directly this way.

“To get my life back, I have to.”

It was a voice filled with heartfelt sincerity.
