Misty reached out and grabbed Kazuki's neck, her fingers trembling as she tried to maintain her anger. But her grip was weak, her body still tingling from the intense sensations he had just forced upon her.
"You! Pervert Kazuki, I… I'm really grateful that you detoxified me!"
"But! Your hands… and your tongue…"
As Misty spoke, her face turned a deep shade of red, her voice quivering with a mix of embarrassment and lingering arousal. "You… are you a child?"
"You always seem so mature, but why… why…"
"Why do you act like a kid who still wants to drink milk?!"
After mustering the courage to say it, Misty was so embarrassed that she immediately closed her eyes, her chest heaving as she tried to calm her racing heart.
"Pfft…" Kazuki couldn't help but laugh, his eyes glinting with mischief. It seems Misty really doesn't know much about this!
That's good, though. It'll be easier to fool her—no, I mean, explain things to her!
"This is an ancient massage technique to help unblock meridians and promote blood circulation!"
"The poison had penetrated too deeply, so you needed to stimulate blood flow to bring it to the surface!"
"And the most effective acupressure point is right there, on that critical spot!"
"Think about it—when I was massaging, didn't your whole body feel warm?"
Misty looked puzzled as she recalled, her cheeks flushing even darker. "I guess so~"
Heh~ Of course, she'd feel hot from embarrassment—and the way his fingers had expertly teased her most sensitive areas!
"And after unblocking the meridians, didn't your whole body feel tingly and relaxed?"
Misty's grip gradually loosened, her body betraying her as she remembered the waves of pleasure that had coursed through her. "Hmm, that's true too~"
Hehe~ My skills have made Delia climax countless times. Of course, it'd feel good!
"See? That's how it works! Look at you now, full of energy. Isn't that all thanks to me?"
Misty nodded, but then she suddenly tightened her grip again, her eyes narrowing. "Wait! Even if that's the case, why did you have to use your mouth?!"
"It was just more convenient! If I used both hands, I wouldn't have been able to detoxify you properly!" Kazuki said, raising his hands to demonstrate, a sly grin spreading across his face.
"Ah~" Misty quickly let go and covered her chest, her body trembling as she tried to suppress the memories of his tongue exploring her most intimate areas. "Alright, alright! Since you saved me, I'll believe you this time!"
Misty slowly got off Kazuki, her legs still shaky from the intensity of their encounter.
Kazuki sat up and took the opportunity to comfort her and increase their intimacy. "How are you feeling now?"
Misty hugged her knees and whispered, her voice barely audible, "Much better! Huh?"
Suddenly, Misty perked up and turned her head, her eyes wide with panic. "Don't you dare tell anyone about this! I… I've never even been in a relationship before!"
"Heh! Of course, I wouldn't say anything. People would think I'm a pervert!"
"You are a pervert!" Misty raised her hand excitedly but only lightly tapped him, her touch lingering for a moment longer than necessary.
"You jerk, let's sleep! We'll leave this bug-infested forest as soon as we wake up!"
After saying that, Misty lay down, her body still trembling with residual pleasure. Kazuki chuckled and slowly lay down as well, his hand already reaching for her.
Not long after lying down, Misty, still weak from her recovery and feeling the cold of the forest night, began to shiver.
"Cold? Want me to hold you?" Kazuki seized the opportunity to increase their intimacy, his voice dripping with false concern.
"You just want to take advantage of me again! I'm not…" Before Misty could finish, a cool breeze seeped through the cracks of the cabin, making her rub her arms. She then whispered, her voice trembling, "You… you can hold me. You used up a lot of energy detoxifying me, so you must be cold too."
"Go… go ahead! But don't you dare take advantage of me!"
"Relax, it's just for warmth!" Kazuki said as he wrapped his arms around Misty, his hand instinctively moving toward her soft chest, his fingers brushing against her nipple.
Misty immediately started slapping Kazuki's hand, her body arching into his touch despite her protests. "Pervert! Pervert! Where are you touching?!"
"Oh, haha! My bad!" Kazuki laughed and moved his hand to Misty's stomach, gently massaging it, his fingers inching lower with each stroke.
"Ah! Ah! Stop moving your hand!" Misty pressed down on Kazuki's hand, her breath hitching as his fingers grazed the waistband of her jeans. "No more touching! Let's sleep!"
After some playful bickering, Misty snuggled close to Kazuki's chest, feeling an unexpected sense of security—and a growing warmth between her legs.
Soon, she drifted off to sleep, her body still tingling from his touch…
The next morning, Samurai knocked on the door early. "Hey, Kazuki, is Misty feeling better?"
"Yeah, I'm much better!" Misty replied instinctively, only to realize she was still being held by Kazuki, with half his hand slipping into her jeans, his fingers dangerously close to her most sensitive area.
"Ah!" Misty frantically pulled Kazuki's hand out and sat up abruptly, slapping his hand. "Pervert! Your hands are at it again!"
Misty got out of bed and straightened her clothes, her face burning with embarrassment, while Kazuki, still half-asleep, realized his hand had been dangerously close to her private area.
"Heh, can't blame me. It's a man's instinct!"
Misty glared at Kazuki and then asked Samurai, her voice trembling, "Um, do you have any needle and thread here?"
"Oh! Yes, there's a small box under the bed!"
After Samurai answered, Misty bent down to look under the bed, her jeans stretching tight over her curves, then stood up straight and said to Kazuki, her voice firm, "You! Get out. I need to sew my clothes!"
Kazuki slowly got up, his eyes lingering on her body. "Why so shy? Didn't I already see everything last night…"
"Ahhh! I told you not to talk about it!" Misty pushed Kazuki out the door and warned him, her voice shaking, "This is our ultimate secret! If you tell anyone, we… we… hmph!"
With that, Misty shoved Kazuki out of the room, her body still trembling from the memory of his touch.
Outside, Kazuki chatted with Samurai about random things. Samurai Boy, who had been influenced by Kazuki, spoke much more politely now.
Samurai was amazed that Kazuki's mouth hadn't swollen after detoxifying Misty, which made him admire Kazuki even more.
Kazuki also learned from Samurai about some good spots in the forest for leveling up.
Not long after, Misty walked out of the bedroom, full of energy, her body still tingling from the night before.
"Ta-da! How does it look, Kazuki?" Misty, having buried the events of the night deep in her heart, was back to her lively, sunny self, showing off the little pink flower she had embroidered on her chest.
"Heh, I didn't expect someone as fiery as you to be good at needlework!"
"Hmph!" Misty proudly put her hands on her hips, her chest pushing against the fabric of her shirt. "There's a lot more to me than you know! You'll find out I'm a treasure!"
"Alright! I'll delve deep into the cave to explore that treasure!"
Misty found Kazuki's words a bit odd, but in her restored vigor, she didn't dwell on it and simply laughed it off, her body still tingling from the memory of his touch.
After saying goodbye to Samurai, Kazuki and Misty continued their journey toward Pewter City, the tension between them crackling like a live wire.
