Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Erina Nakiri

What was this feeling?

A strong feeling of being squeezed, a feeling that if you don't use a little effort, you will be directly squeezed out. All you can feel is that hot, softness constantly squeezing you from all directions, and every time you move forward, there will be something blocking you.

She trembled, her breath quickened, as though uncertain whether to allow him closer or to push him away. But just as he considered retreating, she instinctively tightened plump and smooth legs around his waist,, unwilling to let go.

The folds were pushed open little by little, with an obvious sense of friction, but only gave a soft and comfortable feeling. When Ryuji reached the deepest part, he felt wonderful.

This wonderful feeling, like sliding and sucking. When Ryuji pushed against it, he felt as if he was being teased by fingers and tongue. He couldn't help but push harder again, wanting to experience more.

Moreover, when he got deep inside, he felt an unprecedented sense of squeezing, a feeling that was eager to be pushed out.

However, her legs were entwined even tighter.

Their surroundings blurred into irrelevance. Every movement, every hesitation, was met with a response—sometimes uncertain, sometimes eager. As they intertwined, a quiet realization settled between them; a connection beyond words, an understanding unspoken yet deeply felt.

"Ryu...Ryuji..."

Just like a bullied little animal, Erina Nakiri made a sound like crying. She felt her body was torn apart. A feeling of pain and numbness swept through her body, but she couldn't help but want to use her legs to keep Ryuji in her body, and even keep him in her body forever.

After an unknown amount of time, Ryuji felt an unimaginable sense of comfort. He couldn't help but hug Erina tightly, and Erina also hugged him tightly, and both of their bodies began to tremble at the same time.

Her voice quivered, delicate and breathless, carrying both hesitation and surrender. Erina felt an overwhelming rush of sensation, unfamiliar yet somehow comforting. A warmth spread through her, wrapping around her heart, filling the spaces of uncertainty with something undeniable.

Time lost meaning. The tension that had built between them finally unraveled, replaced by a profound sense of fulfillment. Ryuji tightened his embrace, holding her as though anchoring himself in the moment, while Erina clung to him, her fingers grasping, unwilling to release what she had found.

Then, Erina felt a hot current rushing inside her.

The feeling of the hot liquid in her body, but she could not feel any pain now. All she could feel was a strong sense of security and happiness.

Not only that, she and Ryuji both felt that their tense spirits had been relaxed.

Ryuji was the most obvious. He felt that he had accomplished a certain mission, and the girl in front of him also treated him differently.

A quiet sigh escaped her lips as she rested against him, a glow settling over her expression. The world outside no longer mattered—only the steady rhythm of their breaths, the warmth they shared, and the silent promise exchanged in the space between them.

Looking at her face now, flushed and radiant, Ryuji couldn't resist drawing her into another kiss. This time, there was no hesitation, no second-guessing—only the simple, undeniable truth of what they had discovered together.

This time, the two tongues took the initiative towards each other, with the afterglow of the climax, as well as the sense of mental relaxation and joy, the two tongues continued to intertwine with each other.

The sweet saliva of Erina made Ryuji unable to stop, and the rough and bitter taste that Erina felt made her intoxicated, making her think of the feeling of being roughly entered by Ryuji, a feeling of being dominated and divided.

She felt like a fish lying on the chopping board, and Ryuji was the chef holding the kitchen utensils. She should be plundered and treated so madly so that Ryuji could taste her deliciousness.

This is an extremely comfortable feeling, a feeling that does not require thinking or understanding, and one only needs to let Ryuji play with and manipulate her.

It took a long time for the two people to relax from the kiss. At the same time, they also woke up from the temptation of food.

But Ryuji looked at Erina's panicked and evasive eyes and did not retreat. One of his hands loosened the hand that he had been holding with Erina at some point, and then slowly pinched the pink strawberry.

Although it was only the size of a cherry, one could tell at a glance that it still had the potential to grow. But even so, Ryuji could only barely hold one of Erina's soft breasts with one hand. He squeezed it vigorously in order to vent the fire that was still burning in his heart.

Ryuji's hand was quite strong, causing Erina to whimper in suppression, but before she could make any move to resist, Ryuji's hand changed direction again and pinched the top of her snow-white and plump breasts, which still had a lot of room to grow.

The intense pain was accompanied by an intense feeling of comfort, and Erina's voice also began to change, becoming another kind of voice.

"Ryu.. Ryuji...be gentle~"

Erina didn't quite understand this kind of happiness. Although she was only being controlled a little by Ryuji, she felt a strange itchy and tingling sensation in her upper body and a peculiar sense of anticipation.

Although she clearly said no, her hand couldn't help but touch her other breast.

"Really?"

Ryuji gently pinched Erina's face, then kissed her cute lips, then moved again, lowered her head, and bit another pink bud.

The intense pain made Erina cross her legs again, and she felt as she wished, something reviving in her body.

The feeling of slowly sprouting and growing made her unable to help but start breathing again, and then she gently raised her waist.

Then, like the signal to ignite the engine, Ryuji once again began to move.

The two of them began to embrace each other, but unfortunately, Ryuji 's physical strength was not as good as Erina's.

Although he was able to fight again against Erina's beautiful and youthful body, he eventually used up his limited physical strength when he moved wildly and cumed inside Erina for the third time.

However, Erina was still somewhat unsatisfied, which resulted in Ryuji being exhausted when he finally knocked her down, and the sun was about to set.

Hours could have passed, or perhaps mere moments. Looking at the sun that was about to set, Ryuji exhaled, brushing a stray strand of hair from Erina's face. Her purple eyes met his, uncertainty flickering within them, yet softened by the trust now settled between them.

A quiet chuckle escaped him as he lightly pinched her nose. "We should clean up."

"hmmm"

Erina hesitated, shifting slightly in his arms. A slight soreness lingered, a reminder of the intensity they had shared, yet she made no move to pull away. Instead, she nestled closer for a moment, letting the feeling settle before offering a small, contented hum of agreement.

For now, there were no more words needed—only the quiet certainty of what had changed between them.

So, she wrapped her arms around Ryuji's shoulders, rubbed her nose against his chin, and finally struggled to get up.

"Alright, let's go take a bath… and then… um, I'll teach you how to cook."

As Erina said this, her face couldn't help but flush red. If that meat hadn't been so delicious, she wouldn't have ended up like this!

The two of them managed to get up, though Erina still moved a little awkwardly. Walking was fine, but she was clearly not at her best.

They made their way to the small lake behind the gas station together. Ryuji set up an abandoned oil barrel, filled it with relatively clean water, and started a fire underneath it.

He had no way of knowing what kind of bacteria or viruses might be lurking in the water, so boiling it first seemed like the safest option.

In a world without running water, even bathing was a hassle.

Fortunately, the oil barrel heated up quickly, and before long, Erina was soaking in the warm water.

Watching her submerged in the barrel, scrubbing herself clean, Ryuji waited patiently. When she started to shiver slightly from the cooling water, he thoughtfully reignited a small fire beneath the barrel, allowing her to continue soaking in the warmth.

Meanwhile, he began preparing his own bathwater.

Since Erina's clothes had been torn to shreds, Ryuji had no choice but to scavenge some replacements. He found some clothes that had belonged to other people and disinfected them in another barrel of boiling water. Now, they were drying by the fire. Before long, Erina would have a clean shirt and a pair of shorts to wear.

Shoes were another issue, but at least the RV had clean socks. That would have to do for now.

As Ryuji tended to her drying clothes, Erina, who was lazily draped over the edge of the barrel, suddenly spoke.

"Hey, Ryuji … do you know how to deliver a baby?"

Her fingers absentmindedly brushed over a certain sensitive spot, and she couldn't help but frown. While cleaning herself, she had noticed something constantly leaking out of her. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was what Ryuji had injected into her body earlier.

She wasn't in her most fertile period, but… there was always a chance.

"Uh… no," Ryuji replied, caught off guard.

"Then we should probably find a bookstore and get some books on the subject. You'll have to study hard! And also, your cooking skills are awful, but you have to improve!"

Erina rested her chin on the barrel's edge, watching Ryuji as he worked by the fire, a goofy smile on her face. Her mind was now filled with thoughts of the future, her previous embarrassment as a spoiled rich girl completely forgotten.

"Huh? Oh… yeah, I will," Ryuji said, though his initial ease was quickly replaced by a sinking feeling in his chest.

Unlike Erina, his mind raced ahead, considering the full weight of the situation.

"Not to mention whether we can even bring a child into this world… but if something goes wrong—"

His heart felt heavy.

Meanwhile, Erina, feeling another wave of fluid escape, quickly turned around to clean herself up.

Watching her from behind, Ryuji let out a silent sigh.

"If only we could leave this place."

In the modern world, their relationship would have been completely mismatched. With her family's influence, her grandfather and father would probably arrange for him to 'disappear' before anything serious even happened.

But even that was better than this apocalypse.

No matter how difficult things got, Ryuji wasn't about to give up.

"For now, I can only take things one step at a time."

Ryuji had never been too keen on scavenging in the city—there were just too many zombies. Any attempt to search for supplies would risk being surrounded by hordes of the undead, or worse, those special mutated ones.

But if Erina really was pregnant, there was no question—he would need medical supplies, books, and everything else necessary to ensure a safe delivery.

"So this is what responsibility feels like?"

A surge of determination rose in his chest.

But just then, he noticed something strange about Erina.

No… more accurately, the moment he wished for a way to go back, something in his vision changed.

A strange red dot appeared in the upper-left corner of his field of view.

Frowning, Ryuji focused on the dot.

The next second, a glowing blue panel—one that felt completely out of place in this world—materialized in front of him.

Nakamura Ryuji

Level: 1

Skills: Master of the "7 Days to Die" World Dimension (0.1%), Endless Traveler LV1

Energy: 300

Current Recorded World:7 Days to Die

"What the hell is this…?"

Ryuji's gaze instinctively shifted to Erina. Just as he was about to ask if she saw it too, he suddenly noticed a new option hovering above her.

[Would you like to safely return this traveler to their original world?]

Ryuji froze for a moment, his gaze instinctively locking onto the word 'return'. When he clicked on it, a new message appeared—sending Erina Nakiri back to her world would require 1,000 energy points.

But right now, he only had 300.

"How do I obtain energy points?"

He couldn't help but ask aloud, but there was no response. So, he clicked on the energy section instead.

A string of symbols materialized in front of him, gradually forming a sentence:

"Energy is gained through emotional connection."

"..."

Even in such a serious situation, Ryuji was momentarily speechless. Emotional connection? They might as well just say it outright—wasn't this just sex?

Why bother being so cryptic?!

Ryuji wanted to complain, but it was too late for that now.

"If that's the case… can I go to Erina's world? And return to my own?"

He asked again in his mind, but once more, there was no response. Looking at his own status, he saw that there were no options available.

No Return, no Escape—nothing.

For a moment, Ryuji fell silent. If that was how it worked, then…

"I…"

His fists clenched instinctively. But just then, his gaze landed on his skills.

"'Master of the 7 Days to Die World'? And 'Endless Traveler LV1'?"

Curious, he tapped on both options. Immediately, two descriptions appeared before him.

Master of the 7 Days to Die World:You are in the process of seizing control over a world's power, though at present, you only possess the tiniest fraction of this dimension's strength. Fortunately, this world has yet to claim a true master…

The more you explore and understand this dimension, the more power it will grant you. However, be aware—due to this dimension's unique nature, it does not mind sharing its power among multiple individuals.

That said…

There can only be one true Master of the Dimension. And even then, they will always be limited by the power of their world.

"So that's how it is… that explains why this world works like a game system."

Ryuji looked down at his hands. He had always wondered why this world allowed people to gain power—if it was about controlling the world's power, then it all made sense.

It was clear now. If he wanted to grow stronger in this world, he needed to increase his mastery over this Dimension Lord skill.

"Then… what about Endless Traveler?"

He turned his attention to his second skill.

Endless Traveler:You are one of the rare individuals who can travel freely between worlds and accept their power. However, as a result, returning to your original world will become increasingly difficult.

But do not worry—whenever you do return, time will be frozen at the exact moment you left. This is your world's final kindness to you.

That being said, in order to upgrade this skill, you must send other travelers back to their original worlds. Doing so will grant you access to the world they originated from or their traversed worlds.

So, hope that your world has enough travelers to send back. And that you can gather enough energy…

"…I see."

Ryuji exhaled deeply. If that was the case…

He turned to look at Erina, who was still bathing nearby.

If he could send her back, then at least he wouldn't have to worry about losing her forever. In the worst-case scenario, if things became too dangerous, he could ensure her safety by sending her home.

But the problem was… where the hell was he supposed to find other travelers to upgrade his skill?

Just looking at that LV1was enough to give him a headache. But watching Erina, Ryuji made up his mind.

He wasn't exactly a good person, but he wasn't a bad one either.

And so, he hesitated.

Should he tell Erina that after a few nights together, he had suddenly unlocked the ability to send her home?

Would she think he had planned it from the start? Would she be angry? Would she leave him?

He had no way of knowing. It all felt… too coincidental.

"Forget it. I don't have enough energy yet anyway."

Ryuji took another deep breath. He would decide later—when he actually had the option to send her back.

Because even if he wanted to return her to her world, he still needed to gather energy through… emotional exchange.

One thousand points.

Seven times…

He glanced at the fire, suddenly feeling a little weak in the knees.

Sure, in theory, he could manage it in two days.

But he was only human. After just three times, he had already been exhausted.

Seven times in a single day?

That would leave him completely useless for anything else.

And in this dangerous world, he couldn't afford to be that kind of useless.
