REMANTIA'S LABYRINTH, SIXTH FLOOR
ONE HOUR AGO
"Why... is this thing here?"
I clenched my fists so hard.
Of all things, I saw a thing blocked the corridor ahead. Its long, writhing tentacles dragging slimy trails across the stone floor and its gaping maw clicking like jagged teeth grinding together.
A roper.
I always came to this labyrinth once a year, but I hadn't conquered all the floors because I only stopped at the eighth floor. However, I didn't recall that thing ever showing up in any of those eight floors during my quests.
A roper wasn't a difficult monster to kill, yet couldn't be considered easy either because it depends on who fought that. The fastest way to kill was with magic or long-ranged attacks, but for a close combat fighter like myself, I had to go the long way.
The moment it saw me, it lashed out. Thick tentacles shot toward me with a wet snap, but my body reacted before my mind did. I rolled away as the first strike cracked against the ground where I had just stood. Another came from my left, I pivoted, letting it whip past my face.
One after another, they struck. Every strike was meant to pin me down, but I refused to lose.
"Too many... I have to find an opening…"
I ran in circles, keeping the roper busy. I wasn't made to be fast or agile, and this was my disadvantage. It was relentless, its tentacles whipping in every direction, which forced me to dodge again and again. I just needed to find a gap to hit back, and I had to do it as quickly as possible.
Then, I saw it.
The tentacles spread too wide for a moment, and I launched forward. The roper saw me, and one of the tentacles quickly coiled around my left wrist. I knew this was coming, so I didn't even try to dodge it. This was the only thing I could do, and before the other tentacles caught me whole, I had to make a move now.
"Got you! Rrraaaaahhhh!!!!"
I took a deep breath and focused, enhancing every muscle in my body, and I felt them harden like a rock. With a sharp yell, I yanked back, dragging the roper toward me. It tried to resist at first, but my muscles were too strong for it. Once it was right in front of my eyes, I swung my right fist and slammed my knuckles into its core with everything I had, sending a sickening crunch and a burst of mucus spraying onto my arm.
The roper was dead and destroyed, its tentacles fell apart to the ground. I ripped the tentacle on my wrist and smacked it down.
Then, it hit me.
"Kuhh...! It's... already happening..."
I felt my body was burning, my muscles tensed, my skin was so sensitive, and for a moment I couldn't catch my breath. My knees collapsed on the ground, and I pressed my palm to a nearby rock. This wasn't mistaken, yet I hated to admit this cursed sensation.
Aphrodisiac.
That slimy substance on those roper's tentacles. How stupid I was to let myself get caught just to land a final blow.
"Hah… maybe this is what happens… when I stay out of the labyrinth for so long…"
I could only laugh weakly and groan, my breath came out ragged, and at that moment, his face suddenly flashed inside my mind.
"Motegi..."
Why him?
Why was it him and not that person?
Why was my body screaming his name?
What could he even do for me right now?
Could he really help ease this overwhelming heat inside me?
Should I even go to him?
Wouldn't it be better to wait this out alone?
But... I didn't want to be alone.
His scent, his touch, his voice... would they calm me?
Or would they make it worse?
MOTEGI'S RENTED PROPERTY
PRESENT TIME
**********
"May I stay here for tonight?"
I still couldn't believe that she asked it of me.
But here I am now, letting her sit on the dining table and preparing her a dinner. Even in her seat, she still looks restless and occasionally tries to steal a look at me, and quickly averts her gaze back with a reddened face when I look at her back. And still, she doesn't want to tell what happens to her or why she returns to my place.
Then, a familiar combo suddenly comes out of nowhere and annoys me, like it worsened the situation even more.
CHING-CHING!!!
"Erotic Skillset Obtained!"
"What?"
I lower my voice so I don't startle Yomogi there. But still, it won't cover how surprised I am by how absurd this is. I mean, why do they have to show up at a time like this?
Of course, I have to check my status to see if that's not a joke.

EROTIC SKILLSET AVAILABLE (UP TO 4 MAX), TAP HERE
"..."
Yup, there it is, the erotic skills button at the bottom of my screen that makes me lost for words.
And yes, you can mock me if you want to. Because first, I never knew that being alone with such a beautiful woman like Yomogi would make me this nervous. Second, I never had a girlfriend back in Japan nor set foot in a brothel. Third, I'm still a pathetic virgin who used to jerk off to bakunyuu girls from eroge and hentai manga, but never touched the real women's tits. And fourth, I should admit that the more I saw her keep flushing and fidgeting, the more I feel something inside my pants is bulging.
So if these erotic skills will bring me to a graduation for my virginity, then I'll definitely be unable to answer anything.
"Fine, let's see..."
I gulp and take a deep breath before I tap the button. Unlike the bonus skill window that looks like a sideways tech tree with horizontal flowcharts of square skill icons, this erotic skills window is like scattered bubbles.
And indeed, the way the system calls them "erotic" is correct because I see skills like [Bondage] or [Master & Slave]. Also, the fact that I should pick four among them makes me even more nervous.
"Umm... what about this?"
[Infertile]
Prevent pregnancy during ejaculation.
I just click that skill because I can't think anymore. Apparently, it acts like a contraceptive, and it doesn't have adjacent skills beside it. Then, I quickly select it and get it over with.
"Oh..."
Right after I pick [Infertile], I see some of the skills are dimmed and become unavailable. I try to click one of them, but to no avail, so I decide to search my next three.
After a rushed, yet careful scan, I finally decide to select these skills below:
[Tailoring]
Can be used to design and make clothes, including lingerie and sexy costumes.
[Milky Touch]
Trigger permanent lactation via breast contact. Repeated use will enhance breast sensitivity and milk volume over time.
[Aftercare]
Remove body fluids post-intercourse.
Then, I see my status has changed once again.

"What did I just do?"
Just when I'm about to regret what I'm doing, I see my meat is fully cooked. I simply roast that with honey and herbs, and the smell is enough to calm my mind a bit. But when I serve the dish on the table, I see Yomogi isn't there.
"Yomogi-san?! Yomogi-san?!"
I panick and check the living room, and I find nothing.
"Maybe she is in the store area..."
With that, I quickly go downstairs and look after the toilet, still nothing. I call out her name and circle around the shelves, no response.
Then, I open the door and go outside, calling out her name again loudly. And again, a similar result occurs because I don't hear any response.
"Maybe she already left..."
That's what I conclude, and I don't know why I feel relieved yet disappointed at the same time. Relieved because I don't feel nervous anymore and disappointed because she doesn't inform me when she leaves.
Until I look up at the night sky and see something...
"A full moon..."
At the moment I see that big sphere, I immediately run and go upstairs as fast as I can. If my prediction is right, then this might be bad, and I have to hurry before it's too late.
Arriving at my bedroom, I open the door and enter inside slowly, calling out her name once again.
"Yomogi... san?"
I only see my bed and the small table there, the lantern keeping the room from being dark. Yet through the dim light, I can't find Yomogi here either.
But just when I turn my back, I feel a pair of arms wrapping tight around me from behind, which is followed by a hot, breathy whisper on my right earlobe.
"I've found you, Motegi-chan..."
I slowly turn around.
And there she is.
Completely naked, her cloak and clothes are already down on the floor. Her bare skin, smooth and soft with a gentle yellow undertone like mine, is so warm against me. And her breasts, those soft and full mounds, pressing directly into my back, making me feel the firm weight of them mold against my shoulders.
"Y-Yomogi-san…?!"
I stammer a little, feeling disbelief and panic.
Then, she speaks with such a lustful voice, yet somehow feels like clinging to her last shred of self-restraint.
"I'm…I'm sorry… I-I got hit by… a roper in the labyrinth earlier. I didn't mean to, I swear... I just thought I could hold out…"
As I thought, an aphrodisiac.
The signs are too obvious. Ever since she returned here, I've been wondering if she'd run into something out there, and when she confirms that she'd fight a roper, everything makes sense now. From what I know in RPGs, a roper is a bothersome monster because its tentacles are coated with an aphrodisiac that can bring negative status effects if you get hit.
And then, the full moon.
In fantasy stories I read, that natural phenomenon greatly affects beastmen. It's like a trigger to make their carnal urges more pronounced, reduce their self-control, and push their mating instincts to the surface.
So, what will happen when an aphrodisiac is combined with the full moon?
The effect will be ten times worse, and I'm too late to realize that.
Then, her fingers slowly start roaming across my chest, moaning into my ear.
"Aahhn… your chest… it's so manly, I can't hold it anymore..."
I know that there's no option left, and I have to do something. I don't want to remain as a pathetic virgin who overthinks anything, I have to act like a real man now.
With that, I pull back and place my hand on her shoulder.
"I'm sorry, Yomogi-san. But I'll be by your side. I promise."
Before she can respond, I immediately seal her lips with mine.
It's only a pecking kiss, but I already feel so much. How my body jolts, how my heart is beating so fast, and how soft her lips are...they're just addictive for me, and I need to feel more.
I gently slide my tongue into her mouth, and I can see her eyes open wide in surprise.
"Mmm...! Mmm... chuu..."
Our tongues collide, and again, I feel her stiffen. Her breathing quickens as I circle mine around hers, and when I suck on her tongue or lick softly along her teeth, those little jolts of shock on her face return.
I know I'm clumsy because I've never done this before, but...hasn't she either?
When I finally pull back, a thin string of saliva connects our mouths. Her cheeks are crimson, her chest rises and falls, and her fingers slowly lift to her lips as she touches them and moans again.
"Nnnh… what was…that? I never… knew a kiss like that…"
Okay, it seems like she doesn't know about a French kiss, and it somehow fuels me more.
"Let's do it again..."
She doesn't refuse, and we kiss again.
Her lips are trembling against mine, and our tongues tangle again, but this time she's trying to keep up with me. Without breaking the kiss, I slide my hands up from her waist, my palms cupping her breasts and kneading them gently. That one squeeze is enough for her to let out a soft, muffled moan against my mouth.
"Mmnnhh...!"
Man, so this is what a woman's breasts feel like, huh?
Heavy, yet soft at the same time. They're bouncy like marshmallows, and they can return to shape when I lift my palms. And the more I squeeze, the more stiffer the nipples can be.
Also, her breasts are so big and overflow on my hands. They're unlike the proportions of those AV porn stars, or the standard busty women on Earth that will sag over time. This is the eroge and hentai proportion, defying gravity and staying in shape.
So, why don't I test that [Milky Touch] skill on these beautiful tits?
I don't need to wait. I silently activate that skill, and with just one squeeze, a small drop of slicks spurts from each nipple, soaking my palms with a mixture of warmth and wetness. In response, she tears her mouth from mine, gasping and moaning, eyes wide but bright.
"Aaahhh…! Why...? I'm… lactating again…!"
Again?
What did that mean?
But that thought is quickly washed away, my mind is too focused by what I'm doing now. The more I squeeze her breasts, the more white, creamy nectar spills over her skin, and it's so arousing that I can't get enough with just seeing.
Without thinking, I seal my lips around one of her leaking nipples. And instantly, my tongue and nose are flooded with such sensations - sweetness, richness, freshness, and warmth - a delight that puts my mind at ease.
"Ahhh! Motegi-chan, y-you're drinking me…! This is embarrassing...!"
Her cries thrill me more, so I slide my free hand down between her legs, finding out how soaked her pussy is. The moment I ease my fingers in, she cries out again.
"Aaahhhhnn! W–wait… What are you doing, Motegi-chan...? What is this feeling…? It's too intense...!"
I don't answer. I keep suckling greedily at her breast, drawing out more of her milk while my fingers continue to explore her G-spot and slowly circle her clit.
Moments later, I hear her moans grow frantic, but she's also confused.
"Nnnnnhhh…! S–stop…it's too good…! No... I…I can't hold it…! Aahhhn...!"
It doesn't take long for her to scream and convulse, her hips bucking as her love juices squirt all over my fingers and down her trembling thighs. As a result, she slumps forward onto my chest, throwing her arms onto my neck for balance.
Her orgasm is so intense, and I can see by how it takes time for her body to relax. Then, she looks at me with a flushed and puzzled, yet delightful face, still panting heavily.
"Haahh... haahh... What was that…?"
"Well, that was a climax or cumming, the female version of a male's ejaculation. You don't have to hold back, just let it go. It feels better that way."
"Mmh… I've never felt that before…"
I know her statement was a bit ridiculous, given the fact that she had an undeniably maternal aura and looked like an experienced woman, but the way she was surprised by the french kiss earlier somehow felt like she was honest about it.
Then, she takes my hand and tugs it gently as she walks backwards slowly. Once she reaches my bed, she turns and lies down on it. With a shy but sultry grin, she spread her legs wide in an M-shape.
"Nee, Motegi-chan… Can you make me climax again?"
My heart hammers so loud I can hear it in my ears.
Is this really the moment?
Will I graduate from my virgin status?
Also, I just realized something:
Why does she suddenly call me with "-chan"?
