The Nerdy Young Lady’s Rental Boyfriend - The Nerdy Young Lady’s Rental Boyfriend chapter 46

46 – Discord (4)

“What’s that, Ellen?”

Perhaps the final act of a shattered innocence. The girl, tainted by my hands, asked a desperate question. I fidgeted with the item in my hand, then slyly hid it while responding.

“A condom.”

“Huh?”

As expected, YunA opened her lips in astonishment. But soon, she furrowed her brows a bit and spoke again.

“…Stop joking. What is it?”

The trust I had built up over time now shone in jeopardy. YunA, perhaps thinking it couldn’t be true, awkwardly tilted her head and tried hard to see the item in her hand. I turned away from her, gazing at the sky.

“hahahaha…”

Oh, god. Why am I facing such a trial when I haven’t done anything?

I didn’t believe in God, but still, in my frustration, I called her. Maybe if it’s her, she could somehow resolve my agony. Even though it was a futile hope, I raised my head to the sky, as if my instincts below agreed. The unyielding instinct continued to shout at me. It’s okay. You can do it.

But the remaining reason, for several reasons, was shouting that it absolutely shouldn’t be done. First, no matter how remote this place is, you never know when someone might come. If someone sees me in this state, I’ll be fine, but it will harm Yuna. And even though Yuna can’t make rational judgments right now, she probably doesn’t want her first experience to be in a place like this.

Still, the condom in my hand, the lingering heat, and the half-removed shirt were stimulating my instincts, crushing all logic. Meanwhile, Yuna, leaning against my side, was subtly pressing her body against mine.

“Ellen. What’s that? Hm?”

“…”

The soft breasts leaning against my back didn’t help me exercise self-control at all. This is why they say learning theft late in life is frightening. A virgin who has tasted forbidden fruit continues to twist and turn, trying to climb up the tree. It was not easy for the immovable tree to prevent that from its position. It felt like the whole world was urging me to desire her.

I wish someone had sponsored me at a time like this; maybe I wouldn’t feel like doing it then. Unfortunately, sponsors were smart enough not to make such mistakes. Perhaps, on the day I confessed to Yuna, they remained silent for the same reason. Sometimes, a subtle fragrance, not a strong wind, can undress a traveler.

“Sigh…”

I sighed again. Maybe it would ventilate this feeling. But instead, only hot breath flowed out, making my heart beat faster for no reason.

…

…By the way, where on earth did this condom come from?

Unable to find a way out of my dilemma, I diverted my attention to something else to regain my composure. Maybe this was a s*x spot, and the previous couple left it behind. Or maybe condoms grow naturally from the ground. The earth is the mother of life, so it’s quite capable of producing tools of pleasure.

Of course, there was also the possibility that the sponsor gave it. If she could create money in the air, giving something like this wouldn’t be a big deal. But, well, it didn’t seem likely. Even though the sponsor was a voyeuristic nymphomaniac, if she wanted something like that, she would have given it to me when we were sharing a bed in Yuna’s room.

Moreover, making money rain unnecessarily and making me find a condom in between was an inefficient method. It was too foolish for the previously clever sponsor to take such action.

Then…

…

After exploring one by one through these delusional possibilities, my vision cleared, and the reality came into view. I furrowed my brows as I looked at the densely grown bushes.

“Hmm…”

Wandering through the unseen landscapes, I suddenly felt another possibility opening up. Rather than imagining an unreal entity stealing condoms, it seemed more plausible that someone I knew, unseen and unheard, had clandestinely approached.

Above all, I had a similar experience before.

“…”

The moment that thought crossed my mind, I picked up a coin from the floor. Staring through the thicket that hadn’t revealed anything before, I sensed something unseen now becoming visible. After gazing for a while, I discovered a leaf shaking not by the wind but by some artificial force, so I threw the coin with all my might.

Thunk!

“Ouch!”

With the delightful sound of the coin hitting the target, a newly familiar scream echoed. It was a voice I had never heard before, making it easier to identify. The only nymphomaniac patient I knew, someone who had never spoken to me before. And yes, the one who had given me this item once before.

No, I should say not a person but an elf.

“Come here.”

“!!”

As I called her name, the bushes subtly rustled. Her infiltration skills were still astonishingly impressive, almost magical. Perhaps the rumor about elves walking on air instead of the ground might be true.

“Come out. Quickly.”

“…”

“Uh… okay?”

When I spoke again into thin air, Yuna flinched this time, crouching in surprise. Following my gaze over her shoulder, Yuna screamed as Iriya jumped out of the bushes.

“Oops…!”

“Hello, Iriya.”

‘Hello.’

Iriya casually greeted me after lurking in secret. Instead of feeling joy at the confirmation of my guess, I opened my mouth with a slightly annoyed expression.

“How long have you been there?”

“…”

“Did it happen from the beginning, by any chance?”

“…”

Iriya just smiled without responding. However, that meaningless smile made me uneasy. Yuna, too, seemed to slowly realize the truth, widening her eyes and covering her mouth.

“S-So… you’ve seen everything from the beginning?”

“…”

“Ugh… oh…”

When Iriya flashed that smile again, Yuna blushed, huddling behind me. She must have felt like hiding somewhere. I did my best to shield her, then looked at Iriya and asked.

“Is this something you threw?”

“…”

I tossed the condom towards Iriya. He accepted it and, with a sly smile, extended it back to me.

‘I won’t refuse. Go on.’

“I won’t do more, Iriya.”

‘Why?’

“Don’t you know why?”

‘It’s a waste.’

“A waste of what…”

Iriya pouted his lips as if genuinely disappointed. It sent shivers down my spine, thinking that if I hadn’t noticed, he might have actually done it. How did someone like him get third place? First place is an interdimensional being, second place is the ominous Elise who has changed somehow, and third place is a perverted pleasure-seeking elf. I began to seriously worry about the future of the academy.

As Yuna diverted her thoughts from the stimulation, her lower half quickly cooled off. Meanwhile, Iriya kept tapping the condom, urging me.

‘I don’t mind if you don’t refuse. It’s possible.’

“Someone knew they were being watched, yet could you concentrate like this, Iriya?”

‘Elves. All watching together.’

“…At this point, is it just something you’re making up?”

‘If you’re curious, check it.’

What kind of species are the elves, really? The mysterious race enveloped in magic was gradually transforming into beings even more formidable than demons. If I were to meet another elf next time, it seemed unlikely that I could view them with an objective perspective.

‘But, Ellen.’

“Again, why.”

‘I have something. I’m curious.

Once again, when Iriya gestured, I responded a bit nervously. However, the following question that ensued was enough to perplex me again, overflowing with enough to leave me flustered.

‘How did you do the magic of summoning coins in the air?’

“…”

‘…?’

“Ah.”

I belatedly opened my mouth, understanding the meaning of the question. Only now did I realize that seeing everything from start to finish wasn’t just about issues related to embarrassment. Turning my gaze towards Yuna, who was looking at me with a somewhat fearful expression, I finally understood.

“Why. What now…?”

“Well…”

How should I explain this? After much hesitation, I turned to Iriya again. When we first met at the library, she explained it as if Yuna had scattered money for me, but this time, such an excuse wouldn’t work. As I pondered, she looked at me with an indifferent expression and asked.

‘Is it a secret?’

“…Yeah.”

‘Is that so?’

As I hesitated to respond, Iriya unexpectedly nodded approvingly.

“Well then. I won’t ask anymore.”

“Really?”

“Instead.”

A strange smile suddenly appeared on Iriya’s face. I wondered what she was trying to say. Twisting her fingers in various directions, she brought up an unexpected proposal.

“The issue with Elize. Let me help.”

“What…?”

I asked in bewilderment. But instead of answering, Iriya lowered her hand and grinned. I wasn’t sure what meaning was hidden in that smile, but at least one thing was certain. The crucial matter now wasn’t how much Iriya had seen.

The clairvoyant elf. The question was, how much did she know?
