40 Chapter 33: The Voice of the Heavens; Seriously, I Really Feel So

Did I just open the door to paradise? To heaven?

Fleur: "Haah…"

Because I think, I just did.

Fleur: "Nnh… Ahn… Mn… *pant*"

Fleur is…

Fleur: "Hah… Hhaahn… Ngh!"

… masturbating.

Eh? Why is she…? Ehh? I mean…

Ahh! I see! I'm dreaming! I'm dreaming right now. Phew… Goodness. I guess I was so tired I even forgot how I went to sleep! Good grief~

Fleur: "Hyan~!"

Let me just pinch myself.

*pinch*

Ow-!

It hurts… Ah no, It doesn't!

It doesn't hurt. Yep. This is a dream. I certainly, absolutely, definitely didn't feel any pain from my now swollen cheeks.

Fleur: "… Haaah…"

'Ciel… There are times where you have to face the truth.' That's what grandma always told me back in the days.

Wait, I was an orphan!

… There's no doubt. There's no other explanations. There's no other way to describe this wonderful spectacle that is happening before my eyes. There's just no way…

I have to face the truth.

… She's pleasuring herself.

I slowly, silently closed the door and then leaned on the wall beside it. Beyond that door, I can still hear Fleur's lustful voice even without straining my ears to listen. She's really going at it.

She's definitely pleasuring herself. Touching herself. Fapping. Fingering.

Whatever you call it.

Hmhmm…

This is a real mystery.

That pure… innocent… gentle… that girl with a bright smile… is now masturbating inside a room that was artificially made by her attendant.

Seriously, this is the last thing I thought she would do because of how we met. She seemed so mature and elephant- I mean, elegant.

Yep. My mind is riled up. My junior is riled up.

Fleur: "Ahn~! Nnh… Haa… I… do not know… Nh… such a thing like this… Ah… Hnnnnngg…~~~ But… I cannot stop… it!"

As if to answer to my inner conflict, broken words formed between her bated breaths.

She does not… know?

Hold on… Wait for a sec and think, me.

Why in the world is that Fleur, who seemed like an angel who knows no malice in the world, who seemed so innocent that it wouldn't be weird if she thinks kissing would make a woman pregnant, is now masturbating like it's the end of the world?

From her words alone, it looks like she herself don't know why she's doing it. It's like she's doing it out of some reason, not because she just wanted to.

Hm… Ah, right, right. I've heard that girls get horny before their period or something… Or was it after? I don't quite remember.

Is it really because of that?

But then again…

Maybe she just feels like doing it, like some guys do? If that's the case, then it's perfectly normal…

Fleur: "Hnnnn~~~~!"

*gulp*

Even with the sound of her voice alone, my mind could already go for its wild ride.

I really want to believe she's doing anything other than what I think, and that I just saw her doing something that appears almost the same as masturbating, but…

I just can't deny it anymore.

That pure Fleur is masturbating.

Fleur: "I… Nh… Nnnnhh… I sh- Ngh! –ould stop… Ahn… Yet… Hnnnnaahn~!"

… It's bad to eavesdrop like this, you ask?

Heh.

I'm not eavesdropping. I'm just COINCIDENTALLY, and ACCIDENTALLY standing here and only leaning on the wall. It's not like I'm being here because I want to hear her moaning voice or something.

… Or so I would like to use as my excuse. I'm sorry. Being someone inexperienced about such things…

My tolerance is level 0.

Therefore, I'll enjoy this wonderful music. Yeah. It's not like I got horny seeing her vulnerable state earlier or anything like that. This is pure curiosity. I'm just worried about Fleur's condition or state. It's purely concern. Nothing malicious. Promise.

That's why…

Fumu. I'm cool right now. Just a cool guy, leaning on the wall with his arms folded. Nothing wrong. Yep.

Fleur: "Hahn~!! Mmfh… No… I should stop… Hng… But… For only a little while longer… Just… Hn! A little while… Ahn… longer…~!"

She's really going at it…

*gulp*

That's the second time I gulp whatever I had in my mouth. I'm calm. Yeah. But I can still my heart doing its job with pumping blood vigorously.

My junior is about to burst. Knowing that someone pure and lovely is doing something opposite of what she usually is… That gap is just…

It fuels my lust.

… Hm? Wait a second…

… Ahh! So that's it! That's what the weird feeling I've been feeling from the Link!

Hmhm. I see, I see.

I nod to myself and folded my arms to reconfirm my thoughts.

Now it makes sense… I didn't understand it quite at first since I didn't have a physical body that can induce the same feeling. But now that I have a body, moreover my junior, I now remember this feeling… That tingling sensation.

It's arousal.

… Yup.

What the heck, me! Why am I seriously theorizing things while listening to someone's masturbation??

B-But if that's the case… Then she was feeling lust even before, right after we went out of the dungeon, huh? So that tingling sensation wasn't some monster shooting bloodlust, but…

Fleur was just feeling horny…

Hmmm… I wonder why.

Anyways, I can think later. I need to burn this memory in my brain's hard drive!! Come on, brain! Record this marvelous and harmonious music!

Fleur: "A-Ahh… I-It is co… Hng… ing… Haa… Nnh~! That amazing fee…~! Nnnnngh…~! Shame… Nfh… ful…! … But… Ah~"

Hmhm. She's cumming, huh? I see, I see.

Also, she believes what she's doing is something not praiseworthy. She ought to stop, or so she has on her mind. Hmm… Is she not experienced? Well, Duh. Thanks Captain Obvious. It's Ms. Pure/Innocent we're talking about here.

I strained my ears, trying to catch every single note of her voice. Doing so, I've started to hear not only words and the rustling of her clothes…

But also squelching sounds…

… I thought I saw the moment of the Big Bang.

*inhale*

Damn, boy!!

Fleur: "Ple… Nh! … ease, end…! L-Let it… Aahnn…! … end!"

Maybe feeling even more frustrated and unsatisfied, she could no longer hold back to what she's doing. Even though she knows nothing of it.

Maybe it's her instinct as a woman is telling her what to do? I mean, as if there's someone who taught those youths how to masturbate, right? They just do it out of curiosity, until they get the gist of it.

But from her words there, worry is starting to mix in my mind.

Fleur: "Ahn~ Ahn~! 's here… 's here…! Ahn…~! Hnnngg…~~!!"

Hmhm… Go for it, Fleur. I'm cheering for you.

And with that idiotic thinking up in my mind, not a long after…

Fleur: "Ah- Nh…~ Mnhnnnnnnnnnnhhh…~~~~!!"

Fleur reached her climax.

Shivering, gasping breaths and jerking moans escape her lips as she seemed to be stifling her voice. I suppose that's because she's still aware that Purin is outside, one way or another.

After a few seconds, I can feel a light thud beyond the door. Perhaps, letting her body fall down her bed from exhaustion.

Basking in the remains of her afterglow, I can hear ragged breaths slow down as she tries to calm herself.

… Yeah. I have to be thankful for these enhanced hearing now that I'm evolved to an Eifil-Realne.

Anyways, it's now become quiet inside. No more bated breaths, no more squelching sounds, and no more moanings. She's done, I guess.

I bet she's realizing what she has just done, now that she's on her refractory period.

Hmhm… I see, I see. Well then. I guess it's my time to disappear. My job here is done. I'm cool now. I'll handsomely walk my way out of here, without letting her know that I was eavesdropping.

[Author Note: So you're aware that you're eavesdropping, huh?]

… But that's when I remembered.

That there is a pattern for these kinds of scenarios.

Where the person who peek or eavesdrop usually makes an unbelievable mistake.

That even without doing anything…

That person will eventually…

*crunch*

Yeah… Just like that.

I stepped on a dry bone. It's a fossilized bone, fragile enough to sound like a breaking branch. I'm wearing a handmade slippers made from the threads I've been using. But it still made a loud crunching sound.

Obviously, it was loud enough for Fleur to hear. I mean, I could hear her just fine beyond the door.

Ahhh…

What did I expect…? Ahahaha…

The door immediately opened. There I saw Fleur, still wearing her clothes. But they're shifted, with some parts taken off, making the important parts visible.

Ah, no. Sorry about your imagination, but she's covering herself with a cloth. That's a shame for you readers, eh? Ahaha~

Fleur: "…?! C-Ci… el…?"

Ciel: "…"

Hmm… Now what? What are the appropriate words here?

Hmmm…

'You were hot.' Yep. That's definitely out. That will lead to the bad ending. I wasn't even looking at her.

'You were beautiful.' Will that do? Obviously not! I mean, from her perspective, how can masturbating be something beautiful? She's exposed her everything, man. I wasn't even looking at her.

'You got me horny as well.' Hell, I'll be treated as some pervert. I mean, I know I already am. I eavesdropped, after all. I wasn't even looking at her.

'Want me to help you?' I definitely want to! But that's a different story. Obviously, I'm not her mother, but I at least see her as a little sister. I can't do that to my little sister. I'm not a light novel protagonist, after all. I wasn't eve- *sigh*

… I should've looked.

Wait…

THEY'RE ALL UP TO NO GOOD!

Whatever I come up with, I can only imagine the worst results! To begin with, I've already stepped on a land mine the moment I decided to listen…!

Aaahh…~ Damn me and my insatiable junior.

I have to beat it later!

… A-Ahem.

Anyways, I need to come up with a response. And quick. Her eyes are already swimming around from the confusion, while holding the door. She's trying to close it, but then she'll open it, wanting to say something. It's now become a series of silent maneuvers.

Fleur: "Aah. Uhm… I-I…! Well… Th-This is…!!"

Alright. Here's my special response in these cases! I thought of such things and came up with this special phrase! Though this case is my first!

Go, me!

Ciel: "The weather's nice today, isn't it?"

Fleur: "… I-It is over… My life is over…"

All life from her eyes disappeared as she hands her head down.

Crap. I failed.

…

..

.

Fleur: "… *glance*"

Ciel: "I'm sorry, I listened. But don't worry, I only saw you for an instant."

Let's just be honest here. There's no need to get my way out of here.

Right now, I'm sitting across Fleur, sitting on my knees as if to prostrate. Fleur, on the other hand is holding a cloth over her still flushed body.

Fleur: "R-Raise your head up…! There is no need for you to apologize…"

What a good girl…!! *sniffle*

But that just makes me even more guilty.

Ciel: "I see. Still, I apologize."

Fleur: "It is fine. Really… Yes… It is all my fault… For not restraining myself and t-touched myself… And on top of that, I showed everything to you, even my embarrassing places… I was even releasing indecent voices… Not caring about anything around me… Just inserted my finger and r-r-r-r-r-rub my…! Aaahh… … Fufu… What was I doing, I wonder…? Fufu… Fufufufufu… I should just die…"

That's the emptiest laugh I have ever heard in my life…

Ciel: "Uhm. Ms. Fleur? You sound scary at the moment. Specially, your eyes…"

To think there's this side of Fleur. It's sort of amusing.

But of course, it's not amusing for Fleur, so I should clear things up as soon as possible.

Ciel: "So, uhm… You were masturbating, right?"

Fleur: "…? M-Mastur…?"

Fleur tilted her head in inquiry, still blushed. That's kind of erocute. A mix of erotic and cute.

Wait… She's not aware of what she was doing…?

Ciel: "Fleur. Let me just make it clear. Uhm… Can I ask what you were doing earlier…?"

She covered her face with her hands, but I can still see her ears blushing from embarrassment. I feel like I just rubbed salt onto the wound, but…

Or rather, she knows that it's something embarrassing at least, I see.

Fleur: "… Uhm… I… I am not certain, as well… I just… I just followed what felt sort of… 'itchy'…? And that… Uu… happened… Uu…"

… This looks like pure bullying, to be honest…

Ciel: "I know this may be a weird question, but… Why?"

Yeah. Even I know it'll be a weird question to ask. If you were asked 'Why are you masturbating?' or something…

'I was horny~ Teehee~' is the only answer to that, right? Like why the hell would one masturbate, right? I heard some do it to relieve stress, or just because they're bored. But it all comes down to the feeling, right?

But, that's not it. If Fleur was just a normal girl you can find at a random city or somewhere, then I wouldn't consider asking that.

But she's not.

She has a power she could not control. She was placed under a curse and died. Then she was resurrected. If something out of nowhere is happening to her body right now, it may be related to her conditions.

And if it's something dangerous, then we should do something about it.

Not to mention, it's weird how she's conflicted by her actions. It's like, she doesn't know what's happening.

Well, I may be just overthinking things, though.

Fleur: "I… I am not really sure, as well. It started before we left the dungeon… It was stifling… My body flamed with heat… My heart would beat rapidly… My nether… would itch… and around my belly too. Like a tightening sensation…"

Uhhmm… That really sounded so lewd… She, being fine with telling me this, tells more about how pure she is. Or like, she just doesn't know that she's already saying lewd stuff.

How pure…!!

Uh, what was I asking again?

Fleur: "And, the feeling became uncontrollable… Then earlier, I… It was the first time I was feeling it when I'm trying to take a bath… And then… And then I… touched… Ah… ~~!!"

So that means, up to now, whenever she takes a bath, she's not feeling anything. So this is the first time, I see. Hmhm.

Wait, that's not it.

She's been feeling horny since before the time we got out of the dungeon. That means… It was shortly after her resurrection.

Hmmm.

I see, I see.

If it's what I think it is…

Ciel: "Listen well, Fleur."

Fleur: "Y-Yes?"

Fleur gingerly popped her head out of the cloth. She now looks like a small animal covered with blanket, with only her face showing.

Ciel: "I think that's an after-effect of the resurrection. Maybe. I'm still not sure."

Fleur: "Eh?"

She tilts her head, almost as if a question mark would pop out from her head.

Ciel: "You see, living beings have this certain mechanism. Primarily, one of the main purpose of an organism is to reproduce. Do you follow?"

Fleur: "Y-Yes. I learned that from school I attended before."

Ciel: "Good."

But, man. What the hell am I doing, lecturing a girl after I caught her masturbating? This is beyond weird and awkward…

Ciel: "That mechanism I was pertaining to is, when an organism nears death, the instinct to reproduce and leave an offspring would kick in. In other words, the desire to copulate will be intensified."

It's actually derived from Freud's theories.

Of course, it's not only towards the instinct to reproduce, and that there are other instincts that kick in to channel their death instincts outwards, like: the instinct to survive, or to simply satisfy desires.

That's what usually happens when a person faces death. It's the same in movies and stuff. When a character is dying, either he or she will be reminded of the things he or she wanted to do before dying, or just simply a will to live will resurface in his or her mind. And then, they will try the hardest to find a solution to avoid their death.

Well, it's just a speculation of mine based from what I studied, so it's not really reliable.

Fleur: "Ohhh… So that is how it is. It is because I died, but was later revived, that I merely felt… a-a-a-aroused…? ~~~~~…!!"

She once again blushed and covered her face with the cloth. Darn it… What in the world is this creature? She's so damn cute. I want to bring her home.

Still, that's what I've told her, but… I think there's more to it than just a simple instinct. I have a clue as to what, but I don't want to worry her unnecessarily.

So, I'll keep it to myself for now.

Ciel: "Yeah. It may last a few more days, I'm not sure. But it's completely normal."

Fleur: "I-I see. That is a relief. I thought something may have been wrong with me."

She brought her hand on her chest, as if to calm herself down. But because of that, the once covered part of her chest became visible even to me.

… She really is huge, huh? Now that I look at them closely.

Ciel: "Don't worry about it. I do it too."

I then flashed a thumbs up and accompanied it with a wink.

Fleur: "Eh?!"

Ciel: "Anyways, just tell me if the urge comes back, so that I'll know when to not disturb you. Then you can do it carefree. Good idea, right?"

Fleur: "I-I… I do not need such consideration…!!"

…
