PART 3
Seeing him moving his hips while wanting me, I know that the side effect of the treatment has appeared.
Apart from being in bed, I wonder just where on earth is he getting all this power from because Rafael isn’t budging with just my strength.
[Please pardon me.]
[Uwaah!?]
Just when I thought heard Nicole’s voice, the pressure disappeared.
As soon as I got up, it’s Nicole who is now pinning Rafael down.
[Your Highness, please get yourself together.]
[What, was I…. doing….]
Have the symptoms receded a little? But his body should still be in a sore and painful state.
[Nicole, don’t use too much force….]
[I understand. What do you want to do? I think it’s hard for him not to e.j.a.c.u.l.a.t.e.]
e.j.a.c.u.l.a.t.e, that word got stuck inside my thoughts for a moment.
Calm down, we’re still in the middle of the treatment.
[I’ll let him release it. Rafael, bear with it for a bit.]
[Sheryl? This is?]
His consciousness has probably cleared, Rafael seems to be confused about his situation.
I concentrate on controlling Mana.
I move the Mana from Rafael’s t.e.s.t.i.c.l.es to his rod….
[Ah, ah…. wha? Ugh, u….!]
Without taking much time, Rafael’s body under Nicole shuddered.
I talked to Bellom-sensei indifferently, trying to be as unconcerned as I can.
[Bellom-sensei, a change of clothes, please.]
[Y, yeah…. I will have it prepared.
With this, have we finished the first stage?
That’s what I thought my whole body suddenly lost its strength.
[Sheryl-sama!?]
[So, sleepy….]
Since I’m already on top of the bed, there shouldn’t be any problem, right?
And I fell on my back just like that.
◆◆◆◆◆◆
I’ve already seen this coming.
I’m currently in front of Rafael, being preached at by him.
[Please explain to me what’s happening.]
[Uhmm, I controlled the Mana..]
[You can skip that part, I already had Bellom-sensei explain it to me. The problem is the side effect. What would you do if you do such a thing and get attacked!?]
Well actually, Rafael ‘did’ attack me.
[I’m currently doing this treatment on Noe and no one else, and since Nicole is holding him, Noe won’t be able to attack me, you know?]
[ When you said {for now}, does that mean there’s a chance that it’s going to increase in the future?]
[I won’t allow such a thing!]
[I didn’t ask for it.]
[SHERYL!!!]
I reflexively closed my eyes after getting shouted at, but there are just things I can’t back down from.
[Didn’t you say it before? That the me fighting against the Dreaming Illness is cool. If it leads to the cure of dreaming diseases, I will not stop the treatment and I will not mind having more new partners.]
Rafael furrowed his brows on my declaration.
I didn’t want to see him look like that, but I wish for Rafael to understand me more than anyone else so I continued talking.
[I have always thought that my existence is because of this ability. That’s why for the sake of the people who wanted to protect it, I had to conceal it, and in order to not repay grat.i.tude with enmity, I decided to give up on Samuel.]
It was a confession that can be said because it is the perfect time.
I actually wanted to tell him this a long time ago, though.
[But you…. Rafael, you saw that kind of me and called me {strong} and {cool}. With that, I finally noticed that the powerless me is also {Sheryl}. That’s why I thought that I would like to use this ability and live as {Sheryl}.]
I am not me because of my ability, but I have my ability because I am me.
Besides, I don’t think Rafael collapsing the same time as me is a coincidence.
The number of the illness’ patients have increased, and it can be called a situation that would require His Majesty to give out an imperial order.
[But honestly speaking, my hands are full with just Rafael alone so I can not add anyone else.]
Is it because his Mana capacity is originally high, the condition of Rafael’s illness improves rather quickly.
Rafael should be the most aware how the pain increases the more time pa.s.ses after the treatment. He frowned while listening to me.
[To think that a time will come when I need to live while enduring my s.e.xual desires.]
[You don’t have to restrain yourself, okay?]
[It’s alright?]
[Ah, e.j.a.c.u.l.a.t.i.n.g. is fine, but you can’t attack me.]
[…………]
I’m being stared at quietly.
I can’t help it, I’m not in a good condition originally, and I won’t be able to hold on if I get attacked every treatment session.
Apparently, the noise I heard in the drawing room before losing my consciousness was Rafael collapsing, and he had no idea that I also collapsed. I didn’t want to uselessly worry him so I kept it a secret from him.
[I will have Nicole restrain you during the treatment.]
[I refuse. If I’m going to go through such humiliation, I’d rather be tied with a rope.]
[Then should we do that?]
[…………]
Again, I’m being stared at quietly.
Certainly, being seen by others while e.j.a.c.u.l.a.t.i.n.g. is accompanied by emotional stress. Noe accepted it, though.
[I guess that’s the only option we got?]
[If you’re my partner then..]
[Understood, there might be marks remaining from the rope, so I will ask Bellom-sensei for a restraining method.]
