Riches and Bitches: I have a gate to an isekai and leveling-up system!

"So, when your balls hurt, you should hurry up and let me make them feel better, m'kay?"

Fay's embrace over my head only tightened. And with her stomach pressing tightly against my lips, I couldn't utter even a single word… Putting the validity of Fay's question in doubt.

After all, why would she ask me anything if the first thing she did after was preventing me from speaking up?

Still, while my thoughts raced to figure out the situation and how I was supposed to behave, Fay's embrace grew only tighter… Only for the girl to slowly start moving forward.

Bit by bit, my face slid down her waist, through her upper and then lower abdomen, all the way to the point where her shirt ended.

But Fay continued to slowly move forward while maintaining perfect control of her grasp over my head, keeping it loose enough to allow my face to move but tight enough to stop me from escaping.

Not that I had any intention of doing so. While I was pretty confused by Fay's intention right now and couldn't decipher the meaning behind her action… That didn't mean I had no trust in her.

'And after all those times when I made her go along with my own wishes, I'm more than happy to just stick through this. Even if it was only for her sake… Even if…'

The slight, sweet scent of Fay's clothes continued to put me on a slight high. The feeling of having first my chin and then my noose hook against the edge of her pants as she kept moving forth while bringing my head lower and lower….

Suddenly, Fay fully relaxed the grasp over my head… Only to grab me by my shoulders and slowly, carefully lower my upper body down to the bedding. And after teasing her smell, her softness, her warmth…

"Stay as you are," Fay ordered, raising back up herself only to move back the few steps she took while in the process of pushing me down on someone stranger's sheets.

"Uhmm… Fay?" I finally allowed myself to produce a small voice.

This was too confusing. And as willing as I was to go through with anything for Fay, I couldn't handle the idea of just sitting down and doing nothing.

'I need to be proactive…!' I decided, gritting my teeth and reaching out for our bond…

"Stop."

Fay's sudden and urgent order forced me to hold back on my reach for our bond. And quite honestly, her reaction was even more confusing than all she did so far!

"Ah!" Noticing the confused… and slightly rejected look in my eyes, Fay allowed a small smile to warm up her otherwise stern, lecturing expression. "You see when we lowered our bond before… Didn't you struggle a bit to figure out what I was thinking?"

Suddenly lowering herself as she squatted over my hips, Fay reached down and grabbed both of my hands only to bring them up to her chest.

"I…" I hesitated for a second. Yet, feeling the warmth of blush appear on my cheeks, I averted my eyes and allowed my voice to turn meek. "I did."

There was no denying that fact. When faced with Fay's anger… I failed to decipher what was its source. And what was even worse, I failed to stop whatever caused Fay's anger from… well, making her get angry!

"I knew it," Fay whispered with a cheeky smile blossoming on her lips while her eyes… Her eyes remained the same as usual. Or rather, the new usual of a constant flux between the seductive, gray-blue and the vivid azure of her awakened form.

Pac.

Either for some sort of reason or maybe for no reason at all, Fay plopped her ass down right on the top of my hips.

Maybe she was tired of squatting? But again, we were talking about Fay here. Someone with her attributes should be able to run ten marathons before catching the first sweat! How could…

"You see when you surprised me and my expression changed… I could see your eyes brighten up," Fay whispered, leaning forward and down over my face while she reached out with her hand to caress my cheek. "And it made me so, so happy…!"

No longer holding herself back, Fay dropped down on my chest while sneaking her hands behind my neck and hugging herself down on me.

"So, I've been thinking…"

This time it was Fay's turn to avert her eyes, even if due to the position she was in it brought her little to no benefit.

"Wouldn't it be fun if we learned how to read each other better, even without our bond?" Fay asked while her left hand slowly moved up and her fingers started to slightly tickle my side. "I want to know you better… And I want you to know me better," Fay whispered, only to raise up a bit only to end up pinning me down to the ground while on all fours, with her eyes just above my face.

"Stay as you are and don't move, m'kay?" Fay requested in a voice even softer than before. And then…

And then, after locking her hands only shoulders, Fay pushed herself down, sliding her knees against the bedsheets.

'What now?' I thought, as anxious about the situation… as much as I anticipated its resolution.

Before long, Fay grabbed the edge of my pants only to start pulling them down, creating the final link that I needed to start connecting the dots.

She was angry at me for not letting her take care of my phantom pain. Then, I had no doubt she was at least aware of my attempts at bringing her aside… if she wasn't actively supporting them to begin with. And now that she started to pull my pants down with a look of determination on her face…

'So it was all about balls?'

My lips twisted in a small grimace when the thought entered my head. And yet, when Fay grabbed my semi-hardened manhood… and moved it out of the way, only to gently bury her face in my sack…

By then, my guess was pretty much fully confirmed.
