The next morning, Naoki woke up long before the alarm sounded. Beside him, Tenka was still fast asleep with regular breathing, remnants of exhaustion from the previous night's heated activities.
"So cold..."
Entering the end of winter, the air temperature inside the room felt piercing to the skin. Even though he was under a thick blanket and sharing body warmth with the woman beside him. His small movement when pulling the blanket turned out to trigger an unexpected reaction.
"Morning, Naoki-kun."
"Sorry, Tenka. Did I wake you?"
Tenka chuckled lightly. Instead of answering with words, she rolled her body on top of Naoki, using her lover's chest as a pillow.
"It's not your fault, Naoki-kun. As a soldier, my senses are too sensitive to even the slightest movement around me. As soon as you moved, my vigilant instinct immediately turned on, even though I knew it was just you." She whispered while gazing at Naoki with eyes still half-sleepy but full of affection.
Tenka then crawled up, bringing her face close to Naoki's neck. With slow but sure movements, she planted a deep kiss there, sucking that warm skin until leaving a striking red mark.
"Don't do that. What if someone else sees it?" Naoki said helplessly, yet showed no significant resistance.
Tenka looked up briefly, her smile blooming mischievously. "Then just use a scarf to cover it. Easy, right? Think of it as your winter accessory."
As if not satisfied with just leaving traces on his neck, she continued lowering her kisses to his chest, passing over his flat stomach, and finally reaching Naoki's center of gravity.
Tenka began pampering Naoki's proud 'pillar'. She enveloped it with the warmth of her mouth, making rhythmic movements that left the man speechless.
Naoki, as if all the morning cold evaporated and concentrated at one point of extraordinary pleasure.
"Ugh... Tenka, stop... If you do that, I'll..."
Tenka's head moved up and down with a regular rhythm. Occasionally faint sounds could be heard—suppressed moans, or perhaps something else—that made Naoki's cheeks heat up despite the still-low outside temperature.
It didn't take long for that dam to burst. In one last jerk, Naoki released all his 'essence'.
"Ugh...!"
Warm white liquid wet the corner of her lips, but Tenka didn't feel disgusted at all. She stayed in place, waiting until everything subsided before slowly looking up.
At the corner of her lips, a little white liquid moistened. Tenka licked it slowly, then swallowed with a satisfied expression.
"Mm. The quality hasn't changed. Still fresh as usual."
Naoki was still panting, his body limp after the morning release. He could only stare at Tenka with a half-burning gaze—a mixture of satisfaction, embarrassment, and defeat.
Tenka lay beside him, resting her head on Naoki's shoulder. Her fingers drew meaningless patterns on the man's chest.
"I keep swallowing Naoki-kun's fluid every time. That's not fair, is it? So Naoki-kun must be patient. Later, when my body is ready and my breasts start producing sweet breast milk, I'll let you drink to your heart's content directly from the source."
Naoki turned, gazing at Tenka's face leaning on his shoulder. Those eyes sparkled half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"I think I'll have to wait a very long time for that, Tenka. Besides... I'm still not ready to bear the responsibility of being a father now."
Tenka laughed merrily hearing that honest answer, pulling the blanket back to wrap them both in the warmth they had just created themselves.
"Oh my, Naoki-kun. Too serious. I'm not ready either." She raised her hand, tracing Naoki's jaw with her fingertips. "But later, someday... We'll just see how the timing is, okay?"
"..."
Naoki didn't answer. He just stared at the bedroom ceiling, feeling the warmth of Tenka's body beside him, and the piercing cold of the morning air still outside.
"By the way, what are your future plans after graduating high school?" Tenka asked curiously, her voice sounding clear in the morning silence. "Are you going to continue to university? Which university are you choosing? If you feel tired and don't want to continue studying, it's better not to work. For financial matters, let me be the breadwinner. I can guarantee your life will remain luxurious."
January-February was indeed the peak of university entrance exams. Graduation was a celebration after passing through "exam hell". For those not attending university, March was the last month before they officially started working on April 1st.
Naoki sighed, his eyes still staring at the ceiling. His hand continued gently stroking Tenka's back.
"No, I don't intend to go to university. I plan to join the Anti-Demon Corps."
Hearing that, Tenka immediately looked up. Her eyebrows raised, her expression changing to slightly anxious.
"Join the Corps? Naoki-kun, have you thought this through? Being a Corps member is dangerous. You could be seriously injured, even... worse than that."
"Wouldn't it be better if you just became a househusband? Taking care of domestic matters, cooking, cleaning the house, waiting for me to come home from work. That's also a noble job, you know."
Naoki rolled his eyes hearing that suggestion. Without hesitation, he delivered a hard slap to Tenka's buttocks covered by a thin blanket.
*SMACK!*
"That's a career pursued by ordinary men." Naoki said in a flat tone. "What's the use of my privilege of awakening a Peach Blessing if I don't achieve anything great?"
"Think about it, Tenka. With the various Peach Blessings I currently have, I'm confident I won't lose to Yamashiro Ren. Even you might not be my match."
Tenka was stunned for a moment, feeling the aura of overflowing confidence from her lover.
Seeing Tenka fall silent, Naoki softened his voice and pulled the woman into his embrace.
"Listen, if I join the Anti-Demon Corps, it means we can both always be together on the battlefield and at headquarters. We can spend more time without having to wait for work hours to end. Do you really not want me by your side all the time?"
"..."
Tenka fell silent. Her eyes seemed distant, imagining her days at headquarters with Naoki by her side—working together, fighting together, going home together. A thin smile began forming on her lips.
"You're right... that sounds very perfect! Alright, I'll fully support your career! I'll make sure you get into the Sixth Unit."
Naoki smiled, stroking the top of Tenka's head.
"As a celebration for this decision, how about we go on a hot spring vacation this weekend? We need relaxation before you start entering society."
Tenka's suggestion was indeed good, but Naoki grimaced, remembering the balance in his savings book.
"A hot spring vacation? That must be expensive, Tenka. I don't have much money. My parents' inheritance savings have thinned out after years of frugal use."
Tenka actually smiled confidently, as if money wasn't a problem for her.
"Don't worry about money! I'll cover all the vacation expenses."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course! A Commander's salary is very large, Naoki-kun. To the point that Yakumo-san from the Fifth Unit once willingly dropped out of school due to poverty and joined the Corps just to earn money to support her family. Now? She can buy anything. So, let your rich girlfriend pamper you."
"..."
Naoki fell silent for a moment, gazing at Tenka who looked very proud to be his financial supporter.
(Damn... I feel like I just got a sugar mommy! But, hey... who could refuse such a tempting offer? I like it!)
He smiled, then pulled Tenka closer.
"Alright then. But don't complain if I order the most expensive menu at that inn."
Tenka giggled. "Order whatever you like. As long as you're willing to accompany me soaking in the hot spring."
