“Mu… Muryou Taisuu…? What the hell is that…?”
Suzuka muttered in astonishment as she looked at my arm.
“It’s a unit of number. Simply put, it means an incredibly large amount.”
“Why… why didn’t you tell me that sooner!?”
Suzuka , furious, closed in on me, and I pushed her back gently to avoid touching her.
“Because you might die.”
“Huh!? Die? Are you talking about my mom!?”
“No, I’m talking about you, Suzuka .”
“No, I don’t get it at all…”
I searched on my smartphone. An educational site with information on high school health and physical education.
“The amount of experience transferred increases exponentially based on the intensity of the interaction between a man and a woman. You know that, right?”
“Yeah, that’s common sense…”
“So, just holding hands or hugging only transfers a tiny amount of experience. For most people, it barely moves the needle.”
“So, so what!?”
“But that’s in the realm of tens of thousands, or hundreds of millions.”
Next, I showed her a math education site. It listed units of numbers.
One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred million, trillion…
“Kei, Gai, Jo, Jou, Kou, Kan… what is this… how far does this go…?”
Suzuka read through the unfamiliar units, clearly confused.
“Asougi, Nayuta, Fukashigi…”
And then, Muryou Taisuu.
“This isn’t just a difference in scale. Even if you plotted it on a logarithmic graph, the sheer amount is so vast that just holding hands would transfer a dangerous amount of experience.”
“Ah, so that’s why you wore gloves…”
“I tried to calculate it once. How much experience would be transferred if we held hands with this amount. And then…”
Suzuka gulped.
“It was impossible. There’s no calculator that can handle such a calculation. The digits don’t even fit.”
“That can’t be…”
“There have been two women who touched my hand before. One was a former dungeon diver. So, she should have been strong, both physically and mentally. But the moment she touched my hand, she screamed and fainted.”
“…”
“The other was a girl who didn’t work out and probably had no experience with men. She collapsed right after touching me and was taken away in an ambulance. I don’t know what happened after that. Whether she woke up in the hospital, or…”
Or if she never woke up again. The unspoken words seemed to reach Suzuka , as she tightly hugged herself.
“Probably, the person you’ve been looking for is right in front of you. It’s me. But I might ‘break’ you, Suzuka . At worst, I might even ‘kill’ you. If you’re okay with that…”
I took off my glove and offered my hand to Suzuka . A hand that could lead to heaven, hell, hope, or despair.
“I’ll give you my experience.”
Suzuka shivered, then took a deep breath.
“…Of course, I’ll do it.”
“…You won’t regret it?”
“I won’t. I’ll devour every last bit of your experience, Tatsuya.”
Suzuka ‘s blue eyes pierced straight through me. It wasn’t the same desperate resolve as before. This was a resolve to move forward, to take a step ahead.
“Then, just touch the tip of my finger with yours.”
“…”
She took another deep breath. Slowly, Suzuka ‘s finger approached. All my nerves focused on the tip of my finger. Suzuka ‘s white, soft fingertip barely grazed mine.
“…Wha… no way… ah, ah, ah…”
Perhaps because the contact area was so small, Suzuka didn’t faint immediately. But her eyes grew distant, her cheeks flushed, and her body trembled.
“Nnnn!! …This is bad… this is so bad… ah…”
She must have been trying to endure, not to be swallowed by the pleasure. She clenched her teeth hard, forcing herself to stay focused.
“I… I didn’t know… I didn’t know it would be like this… hyaaaaah!!”
Just how much experience was being transferred through that tiny point of contact? What kind of sensation was Suzuka feeling right now? I couldn’t understand it at all. All I could do was pray that she could endure it.
“Damn it…!! I won’t lose, I won’t lose… for my mom’s sake… ah, ah, ah…”
Suzuka endured. Her eyes moist, drool dripping from her half-open mouth. Her disheveled uniform clung to her sweaty chest, looking strangely alluring, and her skirt was in disarray, revealing her beautiful thighs.
It was erotic.
Even though Suzuka was enduring this pain (or rather, pleasure) for her mother’s sake, I couldn’t help but feel aroused by the sight. How shameless of me.
“Huh? Huh? What the…!? Suddenly, it’s so intense… ah, ah, ah… AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
※Only their fingertips were touching.
Suzuka leaned back sharply, and the fingertips that had been touching mine separated.
“What the… seriously, what the hell was that…?”
Suzuka looked at me with eyes that were a mix of fear, desperation, and something like expectation.
“A-are you okay?”
“Okay? There’s no way I’m okay!!”
Her knees trembling, she managed to stand up and glared at me sharply.
“I-I’m going home today!!”
“Ah, Suzuka …”
Stumbling slightly, Suzuka hurried away with a pigeon-toed trot.
