Chapter 5

"Hmm? What's wrong, cat got your tongue? heh!"

Tania couldn't help but snicker after her words upon seeing Arthur's awestruck expression. He was standing in a stupor while she lets his extra-active eyes dance around her body.

"It's not like this is your first time seeing me like this.", she proceeded.

She could see his mouth repeatedly opening and closing in a cycle as if wanting to express what he was currently feeling in his own words, although he couldn't.

His throat repeatedly moved up and down as he began gulping mouthful after mouthful of saliva as if his brain had been continuously transmitting signs that it had instantaneously gone dry.

With Arthur still in a frozen state, Tania kept her teasing smile on and slowly crouched down while maintaining eye contact, further stimulating his desire even more.

She sat over the edge with her legs plunged into the steaming pool of water while facing him.

She kept eyeing his face, halted her gaze on his eyes for a moment before gradually turning downwards- to his broad shoulders and chest, his toned and tight abdomen, and finally...

"Are you gonna say something or wh- hmm? well, at least a part of you is expressive enough. Kekeke~", leered Tania.

....

A short while later, Arthur was able to pull himself out of his lust-drunken daze before pretending to cough while flashing a wry smile at Tania's mischievousness...

"You really do enjoy tormenting me like this, don't you?"

He said as he looked down at his ginormous, twitching, painfully stiff joystick that was already leaking ounces of overwhelmingly uncontainable desire.

Only to realize that Tania was intently looking at it as well with her glinting eyes and enchanting smile as he inclined his head, meeting her gaze once again.

"Hahaha! Please, as if I'm doing this for your pleasure. And honestly, you've seen me naked countless times already, yet you still haven't gotten used to this?"

Tania couldn't help but laugh out loud before shrugging her shoulders, causing her supple chest to jiggle, much to his delight.

She was clearly indifferent in exposing herself to her nudity, even in his presence- typical Tania.

"I know, I know, you don't really care much about this stuff. But it doesn't mean that I'm the same as you. I mean, you can't blame a healthy young man's body, such as mine for reacting like this..."

"Oh? Kekeke~ right, I almost forgot..."

Tania responded with amusement as a sudden thought re-emerged from one of Arthur's past memories embedded in her own before vulgarly proceeding...

"Perhaps you really haven't gotten the privilege to stain your cock with women's nectar, even back then, in your previous life that's why you're acting like this right now, huh?"

And after she had spoken her piece, Arthur couldn't help but widen his eyes and sighed before coming to a realization...

'How did she- right... Not only did she have the fragmented memories of a heroic spirit but a part of mine as well.'

"Kekeke~ Why are you so surprised? Though I don't have all of your memories, with what little I have and know about your former self, it was easy to put the pieces together."

"Right..."

Arthur responded absent-mindedly while still taking occasional glances at her nudity. And with gritted teeth, he thought, 'I'll have a taste of that someday- Dammit, I'll just jack it off later.'

Knowing that he won't be getting the chance on her for the moment, Arthur turned his back on her while shrugging his shoulders and forcefully attempted to control his almost-erupting desire.

He proceeded towards the other side of the pool and sat down, submerging his whole body but the head, and spoke as he smiled...

"For the record, I almost slept with a girl once... And then I never had the chance after that before fate took a turn for me."

"Really now? But it doesn't change the fact that it only 'almost' happened. You never fucked her.", she smirked and brutally retorted.

"...Thank you for breaking my heart further, Tania.", Arthur was inwardly rolling his eyes before putting on a thin smile while voicing out a sarcastic response.

Though he was still smiling after he said that, Arthur briefly turned absent-minded after recalling the truth of the matter about why he had stayed a saint back then.

'She doesn't know about that, does she?', he thought inwardly and flash a briefly embarrassed expression before regaining his composure.

Fortunately, she never caught signs of it and was busily moving around, doing the same as him.

Tania soon gently plunged herself into the pool as well. With a sigh of contentment and absolute relief escaping her lips before raising a brow and inquired with a wondering tone...

"Why though? As far as your memories go, you've had everything that you ever wanted; Wealth, a healthy body, a handsome face, and I bet any woman would willingly spread their cunts for you."

'...Well, money and face can't really give women euphoric sexual satisfaction; a big, fat, prick does which I regrettably didn't have.', he muttered inaudibly.

As embarrassed as he was, even to admit it silently, it was also the reason why he failed to get himself laid in the first place.

'That damn woman, I can still recall her adamant refusal to go all the way through after seeing my boy down there. She didn't even have the decency to voice out her piece before leaving.'

Arthur thought after a bit of recollection of what happened that very day with the first and only woman he attempted to sleep with.

And with a shrug, acting as if he never cared, Arthur responded casually, "Beats me. Maybe I was just too perfect for girls to go all the way through with me."

"Right. Or maybe you were just once a- what's the term again?... Ah, right! a Beta? Kakakaka!"

....

Weeks soon came to pass, a week more and another month will soon come to an end as Arthur and Tania,-

in each other's company, lived their monotonous yet harmonious and of course, lust-excitement-filled day-to-day life.

"Are you sure about this though?"

Tania couldn't help but ask doubtfully and worriedly as she and Arthur faced each other on opposite sides.

"Hmm, I just wanted to try how capable am I now that I have upgraded my physique with the full efficacy of the super soldier serum.", said Arthur after nodding his head.

"...Well, okay then. Don't say I didn't warn you.", replied Tania.

She couldn't help but show a bit of worry for him as Arthur, prior to the current training period, requested to spar without pulling any punches.

She soon came to know that he had received his weekly sign-in reward which enabled him to assimilate its effect,-

pushing the effectivity of the downgraded serum he had previously induced to its full efficacy.

"Last chance, Arthur. Are you sure about this?", asked Tania.

With her red orbs staring right at his eyes in predatory gaze, despite her stone-cold expression, was still feeling apprehensive about engaging him without holding anything back.

"What, are you scared that I could finally have the chance to take you down right here and now?"
