Chapter 38

An extreme shiver ran down Zirken's spine. All his instincts screamed for him to do something before a threat to his life was awakened.

"W-Wait!! It's not what you're thinking!" - Zirken.

"Yes that's right!" - Annie, as flushed as Zirken.

"You guys don't sound so convincing when we just saw one of you completely naked while kissing... T-Also..." - Sasha, her face completely red as she pointed to the area between Zirken's legs.

"Huh?" - Zirken.

Both Zirken, Annie and Mikasa immediately looked where Sasha was pointing. All they saw was Zirken's cock fully erect, as if he was ready to go into battle.

"C-Cover it up, idiot!!" - Annie, while punching Zirken in the head.

Everyone's faces took on a red color like never seen before. Even Misaka was as red as a fresh tomato.

"Y-Do you have any clothes I can borrow? I had to throw mine away because they got wet from the avalanche..." - Zirken.

"Don't you guys have your backpacks? We were told to put spare clothes in them." - Sasha.

"We lost them because of that frightening tremor and the avalanche that fell on us..." - Annie.

"What bad luck… I think Mikasa and I are very lucky that nothing fell on us." - Sasha.

"I don't know if my clothes fit you, but if you want to try..." - Sasha.

However, when Sasha was about to hand over her spare clothes, Mikasa stepped forward and took off her cloak.

Using it as a kind of rope, Mikasa surrounded Zirken with the cloak, hooked it around his neck and pulled him towards her.

"?!" - Zirken, Annie and Sasha.

Before he could even react, Zirken's lips were already glued to Mikasa's. She completely overpowered him and encircled his head with her arms, giving him a hug to keep him from pulling away.

She hurriedly struggled for her tongue to invade Zirken's mouth, but it didn't take long for it to happen and soon they were both sticking their tongues in each other's mouths.

Zirken no longer knew how to react and simply surrendered. After all, he knew that he would hardly escape Mikasa without having to hurt her.

However, the other two girls seemed to be seeing something completely impossible happening before their eyes. They've lived with Mikasa long enough to even think that a serious girl like her would do such a thing.

Gasping for breath, Mikasa and Zirken parted their lips, even forming a bridge of saliva connecting their mouths. Their bodies were so hot that it even seemed as if the icy weather had stopped having any effect.

"I won't lose to her..." - Mikasa.

"Ezir-San... did you use some kind of witchcraft to make women crazy about you?! That would explain why even Annie-san was doing that to you..." - Sasha.

"Heyyyyy! Don't get it wrong! I didn't do anything like that!!" - Zirken.

"Stay away from me! ERO-ZIR!" - Sasha.

"What-" - Zirken.

It was at that exact moment that another shiver ran through his entire body. It was as high a killing intent as Mikasa's.

"A-Annie?" - Zirken.

"I see... So it looks like I wasn't the only one who had feelings for this shit..." - Annie.

'But why the fuck did it have to be your sister right away?! I know they aren't really brothers, but they were still raised together... What are the chances?!' - Annie.

Annie and Mikasa began to glare at each other fiercely. A deadly atmosphere surrounded them and made the atmosphere completely different from a few seconds ago. They looked like they were going to attack at any moment.

"S-Shall we calm down, girls?" - Zirken.

"Don't mess around!" - Annie and Mikasa.

"!!" - Zirken

"R-Right..." - Zirken, feeling that things would get worse if he didn't stay with him.

"Tsk. Let's go!"

Annie approached Zirken, grabbed her wrist, and pulled him to walk with her. However, before she could even take any distance, Mikasa also grabbed Zirken's other hand.

"We're going together too." - Mikasa.

"It's because?" - Annie.

"You guys are out of supplies and Ezir has no clothes on, just a cape. I don't know how he hasn't gone into hypothermia yet... You won't have the slightest chance of completing the test without even having a map or checklist items." - Mikasa.

'His hand is still warm…how?' - Mikasa.

"Shit... You have a point." - Annie, making a thoughtful expression.

'We'll look extremely suspicious if we manage to complete the test without even having equipment or Zirken looking good even though we're naked in the middle of the snow...' - Annie.

"(Sigh) All right, let's cooperate." - Annie.

"It's okay, isn't it? Sasha?" - Mikasa.

Mikasa's face expressed only a slight smile, but even with her beautiful face, that smile looked quite menacing.

"Y-yes!" - Sasha.

'Where did I get myself...' - Sasha and Zirken.

After walking for approximately 1 hour, the group finally found their way out of the forest. Now they could see a kind of relief completely covered by snow, with some trees and large rocks scattered along the terrain.

"Do you have any idea what that thing was in the sky? What about that explosion?! How could something that big exist?!" - Sasha.

"It reminded me of that mysterious light that appeared on Wall Maria years ago..." - Mikasa.

"Isn't it?! That light looked like the sun itself!" - Sasha.

"!!" - Mikasa.

An understanding soon hit Mikasa's mind. The slightest possibility of an ancient savior has turned up and is much closer than she imagined.

'I wonder... No... It can't be...'-Mikasa, as she looked at Zirken.

"We don't know anything either. All we saw after that light was an avalanche coming at us." - Annie.

"Exactly." - Zirken.

'How I wish I could have brought my Sunny sword! My clothes would still be intact and I wouldn't have to walk in the middle of 3 girls being completely naked... I wish I had a smaller body so that Mikasa's or Sasha's clothes fit me...' - Zirken, regretting having such a body strong.

"I hope that scary thing doesn't happen again... I even get goosebumps just thinking about it!" - Sasha.

"I feel the same too!" - Zirken, crying inside.

After walking a little more, they realized that the sky was already darkening and night would appear in a few minutes. So everyone opted to head back to the exit of the forest and take advantage of the large amounts of trees to keep them from waking up covered in snow.

'Shit, I'll have to come up with some excuse to get away...' - Zirken.

"Annie." - Zirken, whispering as low as possible for only Annie to hear.

"What's it?"

"It's getting dark, I need to go somewhere else." - Zirken.

"Ah! I had forgotten about your hair and eye problem... Would Mikasa recognize you right away if you both returned to normal?" - Annie.

"I don't know, but I'd rather not risk it..." - Zirken.

"(Sigh) It's going to be hard to think of a good enough excuse for Mikasa to let you sleep away from us... Can't you just lift your hood?" - Annie.

"At the-"

"What are you whispering over there? Come help set up camp!" - Sasha.

"R-Right..." - Zirken

'The hood won't do much good if Mikasa sees even a silver strand of my hair... I'll have to come up with an excuse as soon as possible!' - Zirken, putting your brain to work like never before.

"I-I'm going to try to hunt some animal in the forest!" - Zirken.

"I-"

Annie was about to offer to go along, but Mikasa reacted much faster.

"I will go too." - Mikasa.

"!!" - Zirken and Annie.

"N-no need! I can hunt by myself!" - Zirken.

The boy picked up momentum and started running into the forest hurriedly. He thought he was quick enough to leave without giving anyone a chance to go with him, but he was surprised when Mikasa suddenly appeared in front of him.

'Deadly steps?!' - Zirken.

"I have the map of the region with me. You might get lost if you go alone." - Mikasa.

"II just need to follow my footsteps back, it's not a problem!" -Zirken, already with several drops of sweat running down his body.

With each passing second, the sky grew darker and darker. It was clear that it wouldn't be long until night had fully come.

"The snow won't leave its footprints visible long enough."

"B-But-"

"Besides, how do you plan on hunting when you're almost naked and without a weapon?" - Mikasa.

"!!"

"I can-"

"Let's go." - Mikasa.

'I'm fucked...' - Zirken.
