Byakuren’s conquest and Complete Defeat
Warning: Nothing too explicit happens but things to get a bit hot down there. Plus, Alfra is still 15-16.
***
Sitting on her bed, Alfra was looking at the door and patiently waiting for Byakuren’s arrival.
Over the last few days, Byakuren only had been visiting for a short time during the night.
She would avoid eye contact at all cost, became even more tight-lipped and would leave as soon as she finished giving her blood.
Alfra understood that Byakuren was putting distance between them.
She hadn’t eaten anything for nearly 10 days by now and her already skinny body had become even skinnier, while constant hunger made her stomach hurt as if it was tightening. Byakuren was very worried.
— But, I’ll definitely not eat until Byakuren promises that she won’t go anywhere.
Alfra, who jumped off the bed, stood in front of the mirror and observed the seedy-looking girl staring back at her.
“……………”
Disappointing.
She thought of the Demon King who was trying to take Byakuren somewhere far away.
She lamented how meager she looked compared to Senka, who had demonstrated a dignified demeanor.
She was meager, skinny and small. Very weak.
On the other hand, Senka was tall, had an elegant bearing and possessed enormous powers. He and Byakuren made a very beautiful picture together.
Alfra’s strong hostility towards Senka was also a manifestation of her strong envy.
— I wonder if Byakuren will marry that guy?
Warm droplets spilled down from the tip of her thin, gaunt chin.
―― A bad devil king will come to kidnap my Byakuren….
The girl in the mirror, who had contorted her face while shedding tears, was awfully small.
In the morning, it was Takashiro and not Fermar, who brought the hot water and breakfast.
“Milady, it will affect your body. Please take a meal even if it is only a little bit.”
“…”
Takashiro stood still with a troubled expression before silent Alfra.
“Well then, I will have Fermar bake something swe–”
“I want to be with Byakuren forever!”
Alfra shouted with a voice strong enough to interrupt Takashiro’s words.
She might have become slightly emotionally unstable.
“What should I do if Byakuren disappears?!”
“Milady…”
Takashiro looked caringly at Alfra, who raised her voice.
He put one hand on her thin shoulders and stroked her hair with the other to calm her down.
Alfra whispered.
“I like Byakuren.”
“I am aware.”
“I love Byakuren.”
“I am aware.”
“I don’t mean it like that…I want to make Byakuren only mine!”
Takashiro smiled softly.
“Naturally, I am aware.”
“what…?”
“Let me give you a piece of advice.”
“Advice…?”
“Yes. However, to carry it out, you would need a considerable strength.”
“…?”
“There is a proverb that you can’t fight on an empty stomach, so please first promise me that you will eat properly.”
“…depends on your story.”
Alfra was pretty stubborn.
“Very well. This is a motto1 passed down in my family. Listen attentively.”
That morning, Alfra entirely finished her breakfast.
Byakuren was heading towards Alfra’s room. Her stride was light.
She heard that Alfra had eaten the morning and evening meals properly, and even seemed to have asked for a second helping of dinner.
‘She seems to be fully motivated’, Takashiro smiled. Byakuren couldn’t infer the meaning of those words, but it wasn’t much of a concern.
Standing in front of the door, Byakuren felt that something was amiss. There were no signs of Alfra rushing towards the door from the inside.
She gently opened the door. Her eyes met with Alfra, who was sitting on the bed and seemed to be brooding over something.
She’s trying to tell me something important ―― That was how Byakuren understood it.
Entering the room, Byakuren sat down next to Alfra and gently stroked her head.
“What’s wrong, Alfra?”
“………”
The silent Alfra didn’t even stir an inch and kept looking down.
Without rushing her, Byakuren simply patiently waited for Alfra to start talking.
Byakuren was unable to feel the tense atmosphere that had shrouded the whole room.
That’s why, when Alfra put her hands on her shoulders, she only thought that she was acting spoiled and tried to hug her.
And just like that, she was pushed down.
“Jeez, Alfra.”
Byakuren looked at Alfra, who was straddling her, with the eyes of looking at a mischievous child.
However, Alfra’s serious eyes made her feel that something was wrong.
“Alfra?”
Her lips were covered and a kiss was forcefully stolen.
“Nn…? Mmn?!”
Tap, tap, She hit Alfra’s back, but the latter’s arms, firmly locked around Byakuren’s waist and the neck, didn’t loosen.
“Haa…nn…”
A tongue invaded her mouth and her insides were thoroughly explored.
Only the wet, squelching sounds resounded.
The arm that was wound around her neck, descended and slid towards her chest.
Alfra parted with her lips and raised her upper body.
She was breathing heavily. Apparently, she had forgotten to breathe during the kiss.
“A-Alfra? What’s with you all of sudden…?”
Byakuren also tried to get up, but Alfra was firmy holding down her chest and her shoulders.
“Do you…understand what you are doing?”
Even the inquiring Byakuren was strongly confused.
“I do. I’m making Byakuren mine!”
“No, you don’t! I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about!”
Alfra put her hand of Byakuren’s chest and tore the thin, white dress off in one go.
Her eyes were fixed at her pale, white porcelain-like skin.
Blood suddenly started dripping from the nose of blushing Alfra.
“Ah…”
Alfra’s nosebleed dripped on Byakuren’s chest.
“Alfra? Give it a break alre-…ouch! Ah…a…h….!
Having her chest roughly twisted made Byakuren raise her voice in anguish.
“Hey! Alfra! You’re a girl too so you should know that it’ll hurt if you do that!”
“Oh, sorry…”
“Why are you doing this kind of thing all of a sudden?”
While talking to Alfra, who had returned to her senses, Byakuren was trying to escape from the position she was in.
“Because…I like you, Byakuren. I want to make you only mine.”
“Alfra…Did you not think that I would get angry if you did something like this abruptly?”
“Takashiro said…”
“Takashiro?”
―― Why does Takashiro’s name come up at this timing…?
“Fuck a woman once and she’ll do as you say”
―― That damn Takashiro….
“Anyway! Please move away!”
“No!”
Alfra once again pressed her lips onto Byakuren’s.
“Nn…fu…”
Byakuren tried to push Alfra’s face away, but instead her hands were caught and pressed onto the bed.
After violently rampaging her limbs for a while, Alfra’s movements suddenly stopped.
Byakuren also stopped resisting and peeked at her.
“Nn? Mmn-?”
Their lips were still stuck together.
Alfra seemed to have realised that she could breathe even while kissing.
“Nnh?”
Alfra didn’t budge an inch, not showing any reaction.
“…?”
“…!”
“…??”
“Hick.”
Raising her face, Alfra started sobbing.
“Alfra?”
“Waaa…hick”
“W-what’s wrong, Alfra?”
Byakuren’s mind was thrown into disarray by the sight of Alfra, who had suddenly started crying. She was in a constant state of confusion ever since she was pushed down.
“Hey…? Alfra?”
“….’nt know.”
“Hm? What is it? What’s wrong?”
She asked as gently as possible.
“I don’t know”
“…huh?”
“I don’t know the way to do it!”
“…”
“Waaaaaaaaaahhhhh!”
In the end, Alfra started to cry out loud.
Her shoulders shaking, a fretful voice spilled from her widely opened mouth, her appearance so adorable that it unintentionally made Byakuren laugh out loud.
“Pfft…kuku”
When push came to shove, this adorable girl, who had been incited by Takashito to forcefully make Byakuren into her woman, suddenly realized that she lacked any knowledge of what came after kissing.
“W-waaaaah!”
Warm tears that could almost melt her heart spilled on Byakuren’s chest.
“Good grief, you’re such a hopeless girl.”
Byakuren pulled on Alfra’s shoulders and reversed their position.
“Eh?”
Instantly they changed into a posture set by Byakuren. Alfra was stupefied.
“Huh?
Byakuren leaned in towards Alfra and licked her lower lip.
“Ah…nn…Byakuren?…A-ahhn”
“Since it can’t be helped, I’ll do it for you.”
Byakuren stroked Alfra’s sides, while her tongue slid down from Alfra’s lips to her neck and near her ears.
“A…ahh? There, not there~! Byakuren…A-ahhnnnn!!”
“Well, it’s also my first with another woman.”
The next morning, Alfra woke up on top of Byakuren’s small bosom. She seemed to have fallen asleep while hugging her.
Her face hurt a little.
Was her ‘pillow’ not soft (it’s not like it was hard, it was more of a problem of the volume) enough?
“Oh, you’re finally awake.”
“Ah, good morning.”
While rubbing her still drowsy eyes, Alfra realised that Byakuren’s chest was in front of her.
For the time being, she tried touching it.
“Fufu…it’s ticklish.”
Alfra hugged her tightly and pressed her face against Byakuren’s chest. Of course, she couldn’t bury herself in it.
“You’re so smooth all over, it feels good.”
You’re smooth too, Alfra.”
“You were really strong yesterday.
“Huh?…Oh.”
She realised that Alfra was talking about the time when she straddled her and Byakuren reversed their positions.
“Why did you go along with me even though you’re so much stronger? If you wanted, you could push me away since the start, right?”
“I couldn’t understand what was happening. Besides, I might’ve accidentally used too much power and have hurt you, Alfra.”
Byakuren handed the jug of water that was left on the table to Alfra.
“Drink water. Or else you might get dehydrated.”
Byakuren’s line of sight shifted towards the bed sheet. An enormous stain was there.
“Ah…m-mhm. Thanks.”
“How were your impressions?”
“U-um~ it was amazing. How to say this, it was really amazing…”
Alfra shyly hung her head down. Her face had reddened up to her ears.
She remembered that a large amount of moisture was taken away by the mattress.
Takashiro was satisfied.
Alfra seemed to have have fully finished her late breakfast.
Byakuren also seemed to have stayed in Alfra’s room until morning. They must’ve slept together.
According to what he heard before, Byakuren seemed to be from a powerful family lineage. All three, she and her parents, had shockingly strong lower halves.2
There was no way Alfra could do anything to Byakuren.
The opportunity that Takashiro created must have helped them vent the feelings that had accumulated for a long time.
The sports-minded Takashiro thought that clashing their bare feelings with each other was, after all, the best.
As far as Takashiro was concerned, his plan was already a great success from the moment Alfra started to eat her food properly.
The joke that he put in Alfra’s mind was simply a little prank to create an opportunity, so he never would have imagined that it would turn into a serious matter.
Therefore, Alfra’s words made Takashiro freeze.
“It was exactly as Takashiro said! Family mottos really are amazing~ Thank you!”
―― What in the world happened?!
Alfra was baking cookies in the kitchen’s big oven. Next to her, Felmar was checking whether they were done.
“Mmm~ smells good. It should be done any time now.”
“I think I was able to do it well this time.”
“You’re right, but the shape still needs more work…by the way, Milady.”
“Hm? What is it?”
“There was blood on the bed sheet, did you get injured?”
“Huh?! U-uhmm…”
Alfra’s face suddenly turned red.
“Did you treat it properly? Show it to me.”
While looking dubiously at flustered Alfra, Felmar took out the cookies from the iron pot.
“Ah…yeah. I treated it properly so it’s all fine.”
“Is that so? Try it.”
Felmar threw a cookie into Alfra’s mouth. A savory crunch resounded and sweet smell wafted out.
“How’s the taste?”
“Mm, it’s tasty…uegh…?
“Uegh?”
Alfra stuck out her pink tongue and reached for the pitcher while ptooey-ing.
“Weird taste~…I wonder why.”
Felmar, who also nibbled on it a little bit, frowned.
“Looks like the ratio of sugar to salt is wrong.”
“What~? Why~? Even though I measured it properly.”
Felmar thrust another cookie into Alfra’s mouth.
“This batch’s the one I made the dough for.”
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
“Yeah! It’s sweet and really tasty!! Gimme one more.”
“Haha, you can eat all of it~”
Alfra diligently began to separate the cookies she made from the sweet and tasty cookies that Felmar made.
Takashiro received a report from Felmar with a worried face.
“There was a pretty big amount of blood on milady’s bedding, I wonder if she was injured somewhere?”
―― Madam?!
Takashiro realized that he might had done something terrible.
Needless to say, the stain on the sheet was merely Alfra’s nosebleed.
“Takashiro.”
“Here!”
“Just what ideas are you putting in Alfra’s head?
Takashiro’s shoulders twitched. Instinctively, he took a certain action for the first time in his life.
“I-I wonder what you might be implying?”
He acted dumb.
“I’ve already heard about your family’s motto.”
“Oh, you mean that. To be exact, it was my grandfather’s catchphrase.”
“It’s not very proper.”
“Yes. In truth, his death definitely wasn’t proper either.
“Death?”
“He was stabbed by a woman.”
“…”
“Although, the one who stabbed him was my grandmother.”
“Wait a-…What in the world are you teaching Alfra?!”
Byakuren felt like something had become unbound.
A training was held at the practice area for the first time in a long while.
In the midst of clashing with each other with wooden swords, Alfra asked.
“Was your grandpa stabbed, Takashiro?”
“Yes, he was a dead meat.”
“Will I get stabbed if I follow Takashiro’s motto?
“Hmm, ladies can be quite stubborn. Such things can also happen every now and then.”
“Then, I wonder if I’ll also be stabbed by Byakuren?”
“――?!”
Takashiro fell forward.
That day, Alfra was able to take a point from Takashiro for the first time and understood the importance of word haggling3in the battle.
However ultimately all problems were held off for the future and the progress was halted.
Byakuren would take the opportunity and preach to Alfra, that ultimately, humans were the happiest while living among each other. And that since it wasn’t like they’d never see each other again, she should try living with humans for a little while.
Eventually, Alfra would start crying and the matter would be dropped. Sometimes she would also get angry.
Then Byakuren would accompany her for the whole night to placate her and Alfra would drink a lot of water. That was the usual course of events.
While she was handling Alfra on top of the bed, Byakuen realised that, indeed…she had become more attached than before.
―― I can’t quite call Takashiro’s family motto nonsense anymore
She felt anxious about whether or not she would be really able to let go of Alfra when the day of parting came.
At midnight, Alfra woke up in Byakuren’s arms.
Arms without any body temperature were firmly wound around her shoulders.
The chest she had her cheek pressed to was also devoid of any warmth and she couldn’t hear a sound of breathing.
“…”
Alfra became a little worried.
“…Byakuren?”
She whispered and reached for Byakuren’s face.
“…Mm…”
Byakuren seemed to have immediately noticed the presence that was restlessly stirring in the dark.
She called out to Alfra with a clear voice, devoid of any drowsiness.
“What’s wrong, Alfra?”
Her faint anxiety instantly disappeared and she was once again filled with happiness. Alfra tightly pressed her face against Byakuren’s chest and coyly shook her head.
“Nuh-uh, it’s nothing.”
“I see…”
Not saying anything else, Byakuren fell into quiet, deep sleep.
For a while, Alfra enjoyed the coldness of her beloved’s body, while on top of her.
She could feel her own warmth leaving from the parts of the skin where they were touching.
No matter how many times they entwined with each other, Byakuren’s slender limbs never retained warmth. Hence, Alfra’s body temperature was constantly dropping. ―― Still, without feeling cold, heat was indefinitely born from Alfra’s body.
―― Byakuren
Just by thinking about that name, inexhaustible warmth would burst forth.
Her yearning for Byakuren inexhaustible, Alfra continued warming her beloved’s cold body.
Alfra thought.
That even heavens where Gods reside would not be as comfortable as the place she was at right now.
This was a paradise, where just by entrusting herself without any worries ―――― simply by doing it, she would attain a peace of mind.
Feeling like if she hugged her tightly enough, they would melt into one, she clung to Byakuren’s waist. Thus, merging with her beloved while reposing and earnestly wishing to become a part of her, Alfra closed her mahogany-colored eyes.
The dweller of paradise had been unconsciously convinced that she was living in a dream ―― which she would never wake up from.
