Chapter 265: Did Tohka Steal the Base?
"DEM? If you hadn't mentioned it, I would've almost forgotten about that organization. I really should deal with it sometime.
As for them sending people, it doesn't matter. It's easy enough to handle.
There's no need to rush things with Kurumi. When she's thought it through, she'll come to me herself. We can talk then."
Seeing Franklin's indifferent attitude, Kotori didn't say anything more.
The door closed. Franklin slowly lay back down on the bed, thinking over his dates with the Spirit girls over the past few days. Everything had gone smoothly, without any major mistakes.
Night fell. The full moon hung high in the sky. Several girls arrived at Franklin's door in tacit understanding.
"Yesterday it was Origami and Kotori who stayed by Lin's side… Today it's my turn with Yoshinon…"
"Yes, yes, Yoshino's right. I won't compete with you."
Hearing Origami's words, Yoshino looked toward Kotori and Tohka.
"I won't compete either. Big brother's body is all stiff—squeezing together is really uncomfortable."
Tohka puffed her cheeks slightly, but in the end she still nodded.
"A loss is a loss. It'll be my turn tomorrow. I know."
As they were talking, the door to Franklin's room suddenly opened.
"It's just sleeping. Do you really need to divide it so clearly? It's not like I'm drawing lots for who gets to attend me in bed."
At Franklin's words, the girls' faces instantly turned red. Only Yoshino and Tohka looked a bit confused.
"Lin, Kotori, Yoshinon, and Yoshino are still children. What nonsense are you talking about?"
Looking at Origami's beet-red face, Franklin smiled and asked, "So you're saying you and Tohka are already at the age where that step is possible?"
"Attend you in bed? Lin, what does that mean?"
Franklin smiled and gestured for Tohka to ask Origami behind her. Being stared at by both Yoshino and Tohka, Origami's face instantly turned even redder.
"I don't know! Don't look at me! Lin, you're so bad…"
"Alright, enough messing around. The damaged school has already been rebuilt. Classes start tomorrow.
Tohka, it's your first day reporting in—you can't be late. Going to bed early is the most important thing."
As Franklin changed the subject, the restless girls finally calmed down.
The night grew deeper.
Sleeping on the outermost side, Tohka puffed her cheeks slightly as she quietly got up. After confirming that everyone else had fallen into a deep sleep, she finally revealed a smile.
"If I wait until everyone's asleep, I can just have Lin all to myself."
Moving on tiptoe, Tohka slipped directly under the blanket from the foot of Franklin's bed, inching her way upward bit by bit.
In the end, she ended up sprawled directly on Franklin's chest. Feeling her chest pressed painfully against bone, Tohka frowned slightly.
"It hurts…"
Franklin, who had already been awakened by Tohka's stealthy maneuver, felt helpless. His domain expanded, blocking the other girls' perception, and the bed subtly widened at the same time.
He then turned sideways and pulled Tohka into his arms.
"You really want to sleep next to me that badly? Can't you sleep on your own?"
Realizing she had woken Franklin, Tohka hurriedly apologized.
"Sorry, Lin. I didn't mean to wake you."
Franklin gently shook his head.
"It's fine. Go to sleep. You're human now—if you don't rest properly, your body won't be able to handle it."
Tohka smiled and hugged Franklin tightly.
"I'm not scared. Lin will help me. If I don't rest enough, Lin just has to snap his fingers and I'll be perfectly fine.
Oh right, Lin—you still haven't explained what 'attending in bed' means. I'm really curious."
The topic circled right back around. Franklin felt helpless. Looking at Tohka's curious eyes, he rolled over and pinned her beneath him.
"It's troublesome to explain. And it feels like the timing is about right. Tohka, do you want to experience it yourself?"
Meeting Franklin's gaze and seeing his gentle smile, Tohka subconsciously nodded.
Seeing this, Franklin leaned down and gently kissed her. Tohka instinctively closed her eyes.
When the familiar kiss ended, Tohka's cheeks flushed red.
"So this is attending in bed? It just feels like kissing."
Looking at Tohka's rosy, adorable face, Franklin smiled and shook his head.
"This is only the beginning. Are you ready to continue, Tohka?"
Hearing this, Tohka nodded lightly.
Franklin slowly undid the buttons at the front of Tohka's pajamas. During this process, Tohka's face grew redder and redder.
When everything was finally revealed before him, Tohka instinctively tried to cover herself. Franklin gently moved her hands aside and carefully looked over her enticing body.
"Very beautiful. I really like it…"
He leaned down and kissed her. Tohka let out a soft moan.
With a snap of Franklin's fingers, everything else they wore vanished in an instant.
Bare and exposed, Tohka's heart began racing wildly. Franklin smiled faintly and continued the foreplay.
When Tohka finally let out a soft cry, Franklin knew everything was ready.
Looking at Tohka's flushed cheeks and hazy eyes, Franklin leaned down to her ear.
"It might hurt a little at first, but it'll be fine very soon."
"Lin, just keep going. I feel really happy… and really comfortable. So this is what attending in bed is?"
Franklin smiled and shook his head.
"These are still just the preliminaries. The really important part hasn't started yet."
As things truly began, Tohka's brows knit slightly…
Blood slowly flowed. Franklin sent spiritual power into her body to ease the initial discomfort.
Soft moans and heavy breathing echoed through the bedroom. The four girls whose perceptions were blocked continued sleeping deeply, completely unaware that their home base had been thoroughly stolen.
As Franklin gently kissed her, the Yin–Yang Twin Cultivation Art was imprinted into Tohka's mind, beginning to circulate slowly in sync with Franklin's guidance.
"Lin, what is this? Why does it feel like I suddenly gained so many memories?"
After a brief explanation, Tohka didn't fully understand, but she cooperated completely with Franklin's technique and movements.
Time passed bit by bit.
In the end, after letting out a soft cry, Tohka collapsed onto the bed, drenched in sweat. Only then did Franklin finally let out a slow breath.
"Attending in bed… I really like it… Tomorrow, let's do it again…"
Watching Tohka fall asleep almost instantly, then looking at the state below that showed no sign of subsiding, Franklin shifted his gaze to Origami Tobiichi, who was still sleeping soundly.
With a snap of his fingers, Franklin directly teleported Origami to his side and lightly patted her to wake her up.
Still half-asleep, Origami's nose twitched slightly. In the next instant, she woke up completely.
When she saw Tohka's state—and Franklin's—Origami's face instantly flushed scarlet.
"Lin… you… what did you do to Tohka?"
Franklin smiled.
"As you can see, Tohka wanted to know what 'attending in bed' meant. After she agreed, I let her experience it.
It feels a bit unfair for her alone to skip straight to this step…
So, Origami—are you ready?"
