Can Someone (Anyone!) Please Turn Off the Auto-Skill Setting?! - Chapter 59
“You should really know when to stop teasing someone!”
How did she push him with her hands tied?
If she didn’t have her hands, she could just use her feet. Realizing this simple truth, she kicked the man who had buried his nose in her feet with a sly smile, sending him flying.
Aaron, who prided himself on being undefeated except against Leo, fell backward from the surprise attack.
Nancy laughed out loud, delighted by the sight. But her laughter didn’t last long. Aaron, having gotten up, grabbed her by the ankle.
His eyes were dangerous.
“Let go! Huh? You’re not going to?!”
Nancy, feeling a chill run down her spine, thrashed around in resistance. Aaron leaned in and bit down on her soft leg, hard enough to leave teeth marks, which finally quieted her down.
“You won’t let me go, biting my leg like that. Are you a dog? Considering you just went off by yourself, shaking like that, I guess you are a dog!”
Her legs may have calmed down, but her mouth became rougher in contrast.
“Stubborn mule! More bull-headed than old man Rivel! You’re punishing me? You’re the one who’ll be punished! Your wife will sigh even more than Rivel’s!”
Aaron paused to think about her words. ‘Your wife will sigh a lot.’ That meant his wife would suffer greatly, both mentally and physically.
But was that really a curse directed at him?
“If you say that, won’t it only hurt you? Why would you curse yourself?”
“It’s not a curse on me, it’s a curse on you, idiot! Why don’t you understand?”
Nancy, not understanding what he meant, fumed, asking what kind of nonsense he was spouting. She continued cursing him, saying things like he and his wife would die of overexertion later or from pent-up anger—one of the two, for sure.
To Aaron, it seemed like she was just trying to curse him while inadvertently cursing herself in the process. It was foolish, but watching her rack her brain to find something that could hurt him was amusing.
When Aaron let out a laugh, Nancy, who had been chattering away, froze.
“Are you mocking me, the hero?”
“No, I’m not mocking you.”
“Then why are you laughing!”
“…I can’t say. You’ll get mad.”
If he said, ‘It’s because you look so cute, whining with teary eyes’, wouldn’t she get angry? And if she did get angry, well, that would be cute too.
Aaron imagined it for a moment and covered his mouth with his hand to stifle the laughter threatening to escape. Even so, he smiled beneath his hand, which prompted Nancy to kick him in the chest.
“I’m already mad!”
At first, he had felt a bit sorry and lowered his head, but now, thinking about it, he found it ridiculous. She seemed to believe that he was mad at her for having been bewitched by a succubus, but that wasn’t the truth.
Everyone could fall victim to a succubus. After all, every living being harbors desires. Though he didn’t know it, the only reason Aaron hadn’t succumbed was thanks to the skill she had placed on him, not because he was particularly strong.
But this is how he repays her?
Feeling mentally and physically exhausted, Nancy’s guilt toward him vanished. Instead, she became angry and resentful.
“If Bije had gotten to you, she might not have even taken your face.”
She’d probably have taken the form of some stunningly beautiful woman with a perfect figure. The thought made her even angrier.
“Who does this kind of thing to a woman they truly like? You wouldn’t do this if you actually cared!”
“That’s not true. What kind of man would get excited by the smell of a woman’s feet if he didn’t like her?”
“…Wait. You mean you weren’t doing it to make me feel bad? You actually got excited by that?”
Nancy was shocked, unable to believe it.
“You’re crazy! You’re a real mad pervert!”
As she tried to push him away with her foot, Aaron’s eyes narrowed.
Then the corners of his mouth lifted into a slight smirk.
“Why are you looking so pleased after being called a pervert!”
Nancy started crawling backward toward the head of the bed. Then she sat up and began trying to untie the belt around her wrists with her teeth.
“You’ve made me happy, so I’ll stop your punishment here.”
As if he was finally going to finish things properly, Aaron grabbed her legs and pulled her toward him.
“Enough! I don’t want to anymore! If I stay with you, I’ll become a mad pervert too!”
“Why are you acting like you’re not that kind of person? You didn’t even blink while watching me finish, paying full attention until the end. If you really didn’t like it, you would’ve pushed me away halfway.”
“…….”
“So, darling, don’t hold back. Let’s be mad perverts together.”
It was the most seductive ‘darling’ he had ever uttered. Nancy found it utterly insincere and obnoxious.
