Chapter 10: 10. The Late-Blooming Knight Who Became a Walking Power-Up for Everyone He Loves

She responded with a desperation that matched my own. Her arms flew around my neck, claws digging into my shoulder blades, but it was her legs that truly changed the game.

As if sensing my impending collapse, she wrapped her powerful thighs around my waist, locking them behind my back in a vice-like grip.

I can’t believe that she did it... she fucking used the leg lock technique on me that felt like punishment because it literally forced my cock even deeper, grinding it against her cervix with every devastating stroke.

PLAP! PLAP! PLAP! PLAP! PLAP!

The rhythm became inhuman. I wasn’t just fucking her anymore, but I was hammering into her with full force.

The bedframe creaked hard as if it were being torn apart, the wooden posts creaking under the violence of our coupling. My hips were moving so fast they became a blur of muscle and tan skin.

I could feel the heat radiating off her in waves, the smell of sex, sweat, and blood filling my lungs like intoxicating incense.

"Roland...! ROLAAAND~! PLEASE...! I CAN’T...! I’M GOING TOOOO—" Alicia’s voice was a broken string of syllables, her screams dissolving into incoherent pleas as her body reached its absolute limit.

"Yessss~! Together, Alicia...! With me...!" I bellowed.

The climax hit me like a physical impact. It wasn’t a wave, but it was a fucking detonation.

My entire body locked up, every muscle standing out in stark relief like carved granite. My spine arched off the bed, my vision exploding into a kaleidoscope of white light.

"FUUUCK—NAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!"

I unleashed everything.

SPLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT~!

A volcanic, relentless torrent of semen erupted from me, each pulse sending a staggering volume of hot fluid directly into her womb.

I could feel the sheer pressure of the cum filling her up, stretching her insides beyond belief. The force of it was so intense I felt like I was pouring my very life force into her.

"FUUUCCCKKKKK!" I keep screaming hard while letting more of that semen out.

SPLUUUUUUURRRRTTTTTT! SPLUUUUUURRRRRTTTTT! SPLUUUUUURRRRRTTTTT!

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHNNNNNNN~!!!!" Alicia’s scream was deafening, a primal sound that echoed through the rafters of the inn.

Her back arched so violently... to the point that I feared something would snap. Her eyes rolled back until only the whites showed, her pupils disappearing into the abyss of pleasure, and her tongue lolled out of her mouth as her brain short-circuited from the overwhelming stimulation.

The sheer volume of the cum flooding her system was too much for her nervous system to process, and her body simply shut down. Her grip on my neck slackened, her eyes fluttered closed, and she passed out mid-scream, her body going limp in my arms.

Shit... I really am going overboard with this, but I know that when a woman passes out while having sex... she’s enjoying it at its fullest, so it’s not a huge problem for me.

For several seconds, the only sound in the room was my own ragged, animalistic panting. My cock continued to twitch and pulse inside her, delivering the final, dying embers of my release.

When the last spasm passed, I slowly, reluctantly pulled myself out of her.

The sight that met me made my heart hammer against my ribs. Without the plug of my cock holding it back, the excess cum began to gush out of her.

SPOOOOOOSSSHHHHH!

A thick, creamy torrent of white spilled from her pussy, cascading down her thighs and pooling on the sheets in a grotesque yet beautiful display of our union. Her entrance was swollen, flushed crimson from the violence of our lovemaking, still weeping blood and seed.

I collapsed beside her, my body feeling heavy as lead, every muscle aching with a satisfying, bone-deep exhaustion. I turned my head to look at her.

Even in unconsciousness, her face was serene. A faint, dazed smile lingered on her lips, the smile of someone who had seen heaven and survived.

’Thank god... she’s alright...’

’Alicia... thank you... for being my first...’

’I’ll never forget this night... ever...’

I reached out, my hand shaking slightly as I brushed a damp strand of golden hair from her forehead. I felt like I had just come back from a war, but this was a war I would fight again and again.

I pulled her limp, warm body close to mine, tucking her head under my chin.

As the adrenaline faded and the silence of the night settled around us, I closed my eyes, a profound sense of peace washing over me.

I was a monster, a warrior, and a predator, but in this moment, I was cradling the woman who had survived me... I felt like the luckiest man alive.

Best... sex... ever...

...

The next day, I woke up to sunlight leaking through the curtain and a warm weight pressed against my arm.

Alicia was still asleep, her golden hair spread across the pillow like spilled honey, and her fingers were loosely wrapped around my sleeve. She looked younger like that, without the careful frown she wore on duty.

I lay there for a few minutes, not moving, just looking at her and thinking about how strange it was that someone had chosen me for reasons that had nothing to do with power.

Then the panel slid into my vision and ruined the moment, as screens do.

[FIRST BOND ESTABLISHED!]

[Partner: Alicia Ainzfield]

[Compatibility: SSS-Rank]

[Bond Synchronization: Complete]

[Host Evolution: Successful]

"Oh, you’re kidding me," I whispered.

More lines scrolled down, and I read them with my eyes getting wider and wider.

Wait a minute...

The system’s finally cooking something good for me.

[Knight’s Sovereignty: Greatly increases your physical strength, reflexes, endurance, and adaptability in battle.]

[Aether Manipulation: Allows you to control magical energy to reinforce your attacks and defenses.]

[Combat Instinct: Improves your ability to read incoming attacks, spot openings, and respond to threats.]

[Shared Knight’s Blessing: Your partner receives increased attributes and improved energy efficiency, with potential for further ability evolution.]

[Status: First Evolution Unlocked]

I read it three times... just to make sure that I wasn’t tripping and also because I assumed the system was messing with me.

By the end... I was sitting up in bed, and I could feel the difference already inside me. My body felt lighter and stronger, as if someone had swapped out my muscles overnight.

I could sense a quiet current of energy under my skin that hadn’t been there before, and when I flexed my fingers, I could tell it would respond if I asked.

The room even looked different... I noticed the tiny dust motes floating through the sunbeam, the faint creak of the floorboards under the bed, and the exact rhythm of Alicia’s breathing.

I turned my head and found her pink eyes open and watching me, with a very sleepy kind of suspicion.

"You’re making a lot of noise for someone who’s supposed to be sleeping," she said.

"Alicia... I think I got stronger overnight."

"Mm... Good morning to you too."

"I’m serious...! Look at this!"

I shoved the panel toward her, and she propped herself on one elbow and squinted at it. I watched her go through the lines, and when she reached the last one, her eyes went wide.

"W-wait... I noticed the change as well... like my attributes went up," she said.

"They did?"

"I... can feel it." She flexed her hand, then turned over her wrist as if she’d never seen it before. "It’s like my body was running through water before, and now it isn’t..."

"My energy feels steadier, too... It’s less like a flame that might flicker out and more like a lantern."

"That’s the Shared Knight’s Blessing."

"I know... I just read it." She grinned at me, and it was the biggest, silliest grin I’d ever seen on her. "Roland... this is incredible!"

"Whaaaat~? I thought five minutes ago you wanted to sleep."

"Eh... I still want to sleep anyway, but now... I just also want to hit something to see how strong I am now."

I laughed, and she laughed, and for a minute it felt like nothing could go wrong. She flopped back against the pillow with a sigh and pulled the blanket up to her chin.

"Five more minutes," she said. "Then we test it."

"Deal..."

I lay next to her while holding her hand just to ask. "How was it... yesterday?"

But then I received what I deserved: a light hit from her palm, delivered in a teasing manner that made me hear her laughter. "D-don’t talk about it...!"

"I... I’m still feeling embarrassed, you know?! And what’s even worse... you literally almost killed me yesterday with how rough you were moving!"

"Hahaha~! Sorry, sorry... it’s just that you’re so FUCKING cute and sexy."

Alicia pouted and then covered my face with the pillow. "Dummy..."

It was the kind of morning I’d never imagined having in either life, and I decided I’d remember it for as long as I lived.

After a massive breakfast in the inn’s common room, we went back upstairs to check our new abilities in private. Alicia stretched out on her stomach on the bed, her chin on her hands, while I sat cross-legged at the foot and practiced circulating the new energy in my arm.

"Let me ask you something, Roland..." she said, after a while. "Do you actually understand what this class is going to mean for you?"

"I... think so?"

"Oh yeah? Then I want you to say it out loud just so that we can hear it at the same time."

"Uhm... The system wants me to bond with a lot of strong female knights," I said. "Probably more than one, because it keeps talking about potential..."

"I’m guessing that’s how I get stronger, and it’s also how they get stronger, which means I’m basically a walking power-up for everyone I care about."

"And you’re... comfortable with that?"
