Her slender yet muscular arms kept straining. As an archer who regularly drew powerful bows, Platinum could easily snap the handcuffs standard for a Security Knight.
But she was surprised to find she couldn't budge this man even a little.
"Who cares! You know my name, don't you! You were clearly just sleeping—"
Twitching her small ears, Platinum clearly heard Goki's steady, powerful heartbeat rapidly climb to 120 beats per minute before suddenly slamming on the brakes.
Blood was an Old Hunter's weapon. For Goki, manipulating blood was effortless—likewise, the heart pumping that blood was also under his absolute control.
"And, did you think I wouldn't notice you watching me through the mirror?"
Hearing Goki's words, Platinum suddenly deflated like a punctured ball—after all her struggling, she'd just been someone's casual amusement.
"Fine, I surrender. Do whatever you want, kill me or cut me to pieces~~"
Lying on the bed like a dead fish, Platinum seemed to become completely pliant. Her already somewhat aloof expression turned utterly emotionless, as if she'd given up resisting.
"Is that so? Then I won't hold back. I was actually going to let you beg for mercy—since you're unwilling, I'll just do what I ought to, hmm?"
Looking at this little horse whose indifferent expression suggested she'd remain unmoved no matter what Goki did, a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
Skadi wasn't here watching over him today. Maybe he could take the joke a little further?
After all, no matter what, this little horse before him, though a future good wife, was at least for now his enemy, right?
Pressing Platinum's slender, black-stocking-clad forearms together above her head and holding them down with one hand, Goki freed his right hand. He somewhat enjoyably stroked Platinum's soft horse ears, gently brushing the white fur inside.
"Mmph—you pervert!"
The moment her small ears were touched, the little horse's delicate body instantly stiffened, becoming rigid.
Truthfully, Goki had been very interested in these horse girls for a long time! But before Margaret, Goki was the image of a reliable big brother. How could he possibly bring himself to ask to properly touch her little ears!
So, having caught Platinum, Goki naturally couldn't let this good opportunity slip by and began gently kneading.
As time passed, a faint blush began to appear on Platinum's originally pale, indifferent face. Her black-stocking-clad calves started kicking vigorously at the air behind Goki.
"Guh—you've had your fun, right! Don't think you can do anything to me! I won't say a word!"
Platinum wasn't some clueless little girl. Seeing Goki's actions, she knew that today she was definitely in for humiliation and abuse worse than death—the Kalterer's knights had commissioned her to eliminate plenty of perverts who liked underage slaves. She'd even witnessed those awful, tragic scenes firsthand.
However, these were absolute secrets. If she kept her mouth shut, she might still live. If she spilled everything, not only would the entire Armorless Union be finished, but she'd definitely be hunted down by many—that would be certain death!
But Goki's next words made Platinum freeze for a moment.
"Hah, silly girl—if I can already say your name, do you think I haven't thoroughly figured out the organization you belong to?"
Moving his somewhat rough large hand from Platinum's horse ears, Goki slid it down, slipping through her already somewhat loose white athletic wear to gently rest on her slender, well-toned waist from exercise.
Over the past half month, Goki hadn't just been playing hide-and-seek with this little horse. He'd tracked her in reverse, locating several Armorless Union bases—of course, Skadi wasn't good at stealth, so Goki did it alone.
Afterward, he confirmed that, unlike what the game portrayed, the Armorless Union wasn't a lapdog of the Commercial Federation but a completely neutral organization.
Come to think of it, the Crusader Knights under the Kalterer held almost all the military power in the country. No matter how the Commercial Federation operated, they couldn't get military authority—having guns but no food meant everyone was a granary.
The Crusader Knights' compromise was because they didn't want the whole country to fall into civil war, letting external enemies take advantage, not because they were truly afraid of the Commercial Federation.
And for organizations like the Unification Sect that completely endangered the country, the Crusader Knights purged them without mercy—if the Armorless Union purely served the Commercial Federation, they would have mysteriously disappeared long ago.
Only by being absolutely neutral could they exist peacefully.
—In other words, with enough money and enough pressure, this organization that took money to solve problems could also become a not-very-stable ally.
The icy palm gliding over her delicate skin made the little Platinum's ear fur stand on end, as if awaiting Goki's judgment.
And on Goki's face, a mischievous, triumphant smirk appeared.
"Actually, I just wanted to talk with your Armorless Union, offer you a new business deal. But since you're so eagerly expecting me to do this and that to you like in the movies, I guess I'll have to oblige?"
And Goki also knew that Platinum's apparent submission... actually meant she still had plenty of tricks up her sleeve.
The next second, Goki's large hand curled and began tickling Platinum's waist rapidly!
"Pfft—pfft, you pervert, are you trying to kill me! You should have said so earlier!"
Whoosh—
Her face turning from pink to bright red, the calm brown eyes beneath Platinum's silvery bangs began to fluctuate violently.
The next second, Goki's body suddenly sank. Even he hadn't noticed that beneath him now lay only that white crop-top windbreaker and the pressed white hot pants—when it came to battlefield mobility, Goki indeed couldn't compare to this fine little horse.
On the balcony not far away, Platinum's beautiful figure materialized. Her long silver hair reflected the moonlight's cool gleam.
But her entire body was now clad only in the black-stocking gloves on her arms and the black stockings on her legs. Her pretty face flushed red, Platinum covered her chest and lower body, but it couldn't fully conceal that cute white underwear.
Cicada Molt. This was a technique her Senior in the Armorless Union had learned from the Higashi ninja forces. She'd thought she'd never use this somewhat laughable skill in her lifetime, but she never imagined she'd actually need it!
"You wait, I'll remember this grudge!"
"Ah, actually, I just wanted you to help me contact the other few Grand Seats—"
"Not listening, not listening! You're a pervert who strips girls' clothes."
"You randomly break into a strong man's house to burgle, and now you're stripped naked, yet you have the nerve to call someone else a pervert... If I called for help, people would definitely think you're a female flower thief, hmm?"
"You!"
The usually lazy and composed Platinum had never been this angry before, but she couldn't really say anything—after all, she *was* a criminal who'd trespassed into a private residence.
"Alright, alright, I admit defeat, you tasteless jerk—I only have my mentor's contact. If you really have some big business... it'll cost extra."
Thinking of her vanished Siesta beachfront villa, Platinum suddenly felt dejected. Pulling out her phone, she tossed it to Goki—she felt she needed to consider changing jobs. Maybe work in a factory tightening screws?
But just as the two were exchanging contacts, the lock on Goki's bedroom door was suddenly pressed down.
Click.
"If you're naked, make sure to cover up with the quilt. These two little troublemakers insisted on coming to find you."
Under Goki's stunned gaze, he saw Platinum erupt with unimaginable speed, pouncing on him onto the bed and burrowing under the covers.
Along with Zofia's familiar voice, giving Goki and Platinum no time to react, the door was pushed open directly. Three golden-haired Kuranta women filed in.
"Brother Goki, we came to play with you!"
