Chapter 52
I sprang up from the sofa— “You want me to… lick… your back???”
Please forgive me for having such a big reaction. Asking me to use my tongue… that’s really perverted…! Just imagining that scene… I feel so ashamed…!
Lian Qi sat on the sofa, looking at me helplessly. She scratched her hair and said, “…Who else’s fault is it… that your saliva is the part with the healing ability?”
“I…” Am I starting to regret telling Lian Qi about this? If she gets injured in the future… does that mean I’ll have to… (ten thousand words omitted here). tlnote
No, that’s not right. If Lian Qi is injured, how could I possibly ignore it? But this is… this is really perverted!
“Have you… ever tried this before?” she asked me.
“Tr-Tried what?”
“Tried… using your tongue… to heal someone.”
“Uwah… Of course not!”
How could I possibly have done something so perverted! If I had, I wouldn’t be having this reaction right now! Right now, my face is full of shame. Otherwise, I’d be as cold and calm as a doctor.
“But… having you lick me… really is pretty perverted.”
“It is, it is…! But could you please add the words ‘my back’ to what you just said?” I said weakly.
“As long as it has saliva on it, it’s fine, right? Then… it’s also fine if you… kiss my back? How about that? If we change the wording from ‘lick’ to ‘kiss,’ it’s not as perverted, is it?”
“…It’s still a little perverted,” I said, covering my mouth bashfully. “Besides, my first kiss… is still…”
Even though I’m a boy, I still care about my first kiss.
“That doesn’t count. Only kissing, mouth-to-mouth, counts as having your first kiss ‘stolen’.” Lian Qi looked at me with a playful smile, biting her lip. In her eyes, do I look like a delicious piece of cake?
I took a frightened step back. Wh-What is with this person? The moment she hears my first kiss is still ‘intact,’ she can’t help but make that expression!?
N-No… I can’t… I don’t want to give away my first kiss. I’m not ready to give my first kiss to anyone… ! Even if she suddenly pins me down and forcibly kisses me right now, I will resist with all my might…!
“Eh? Why do you look like a frightened little white rabbit?” She leaned forward, getting even closer to me.
“Little white rabbit…!?”
Is it just because my hair is white??
I saw her resting her chin on her hand, thinking about something.
“Mhm… I wonder if a same-sex kiss… counts as ‘stealing’ a first kiss?”
“It… It probably counts…” I said weakly. Oh heavens, she’s not… she’s not really thinking of doing it, is she…? I’m a boy, so of course it counts!
“Alright, alright. Even though… in your eyes, I might be a ‘bad’ person,” she said, coughing, pretending to be serious. “But… I wouldn’t do something like a ‘forced kiss’.”
“That’s good…” I patted my chest, breathing a sigh of relief.
“Besides, you wouldn’t feel anything from being kissed by a girl, right?”
“How could I not feel anything…”
I’m a boy. Of course I’d feel something if I kissed a member of the opposite sex. Just talking about this topic is making me blush from bashfulness. How can Lian Qi be so unbothered? Why do I get the illusion that she’s the boy, and I’m the girl? Uu… So embarrassing.
“Anyway, you ‘kissing’ my back doesn’t count as ‘losing your first kiss.’ It’s just like… when you drink tea, you ‘kiss’ the teacup. That doesn’t count as a ‘kiss,’ right?”
“Eh?? How can I treat your back… like a ‘teacup’?”
A teacup is just an inanimate object. But Lian Qi’s back… is a real, ‘tender,’ ‘girlish’ back!
“So, bottom line, are you willing to heal my injury or not?”
“I… Okay, okay, I’ll do it, alright…?” I said in a small voice.
I’m declaring this right now: I am absolutely not some pervert who likes licking people. It’s just… Lian Qi is injured, and I can’t just watch and do nothing.
“This is the one and only time, okay? Because… it’s a little perverted. In the future… I’ll prepare more alchemy potions.”
“I know, I know. I just wanted to test how amazing your ‘tongue’— I mean, ‘healing magic’— is.”
“What were you about to say before you corrected yourself… what shameful words…?”
Lian Qi started taking off her clothes right in front of me. She’s completely treating me like a girl, not reserved around me at all.
I watched her toss her uniform jacket and shirt… one by one… in front of me. After the boy’s clothes come off, the girl’s underwear is revealed. This ‘girl-disguised-as-a-boy’ contrast… really has a strong visual impact, you know? It’s like… peeling a banana and finding an orange inside!? If it were me… taking off my girl’s clothes and revealing a boy’s body… it would probably be… even more shocking, right?
“Come on, kiss it.” She plopped down on the sofa with her back to me.
I stared at her bra strap, nervously swallowing. I knelt down on the sofa.
“H-How do I… ‘kiss’ it?”
“Ha? You don’t even know how to ‘kiss’? Do you want me to demonstrate for you?”
“No, no, no…! No need!” I quickly refused. “What I mean is… just ‘kissing’ it… won’t get much saliva on it…”
After all, the healing ability is in my saliva, not my lips.
“Do you… know how to… ‘French kiss’?”
“Huh???” My face instantly turned bright red. “…That’s… so perverted. That’s even more perverted than licking.”
“Then just lick it.”
“Eh???”
“Hurry up. I’m already ‘naked’ and you’re still dawdling?”
“…Okay.”
I leaned in a little closer, crouched down in shame, and… lightly… licked… her back.
It’s a little warm… and even more delicate than I imagined… It feels very… strange.
“WAH—!!!!” Lian Qi’s whole body shuddered, and she shot up from the sofa.
I stared at her blankly. Why did she have such a big reaction?
“Why is it so ITCHY???” She fumbled with one hand for the spot on her back that I had licked, and pointed at me with the other.
“Huh!?”
“What the hell is that… wet… hot… and ‘slimy’ feeling!?”
“I… I just licked it a little…”
“Hey, how about I lick you once, then you’ll know what it feels like.”
“N-No, thank you—!”
I trembled and retreated. She pounced! She flipped me over in an instant, so I was face down on the sofa. She straddled my back and roughly lifted my shirt…
“Help me…!!”
“Help…!”
“Hel…”
“Ahhh~~”
