Chapter 7 – Secret Friends.
Silence filled the room. Usher glanced at the silent girl, waiting for him to say something, but no matter how much time passed, she sat still and said nothing.
“Hey, why are you at my house?”
“…”
She couldn’t stand it and he tried to talk to her first, but she just stared at him with those empty eyes and she didn’t say anything. Usher frowned at his doll-like appearance, which made him question if he was really human. He was Usher, who sometimes thought of Belka as a doll. But the girl was different from Belka. The reason Usher thought of Belka as a doll was because she was overly beautiful. From the bright golden eyes to the beautiful flower-like hair. It’s not because of her lifeless appearance like that girl. Usher felt bad that a child like that had reminded him of something similar to Belka, even if it felt completely different.
The girl called the neighborhood idiot was famous even among children. It would be more strange that a child like that wasn’t famous in such a small country, but there were no children I didn’t know anyway. At first, many children approached her with curiosity because of her pretty appearance, but after a while, she often pretended not to know the girl or looked down on her. No matter what she said, she didn’t answer, and no matter what she did, she couldn’t think or move on her own. After that, she was often stoned and teased by the children, but even that would require a response to continue. No matter what the girl did, she didn’t respond. Looking at her empty eyes, her children, who used to play pranks on her, got tired of seeing her and were ignoring them now.
“Ha ha, yes, what you know is strange.”
In the end, it was Usher who gave up first. Would a fool be called a fool for nothing? She was the only one who was tired of being vigilant. Nervous that she was in her room, she hadn’t changed her rain-soaked clothes until now, so he decided to change hers. She wasn’t too bothered, though, but she barely ignored Usher when he took off her clothes. The first thing the girl who hadn’t reacted to until now looked at him. When the child, who had not responded to anything she had done until now, moved on her own, she stopped trying to take off her clothes in surprise.
“What?”
Until now, she had been as still as the furniture in her house, but she had come to him like a lie. Not only that.
“I will not?”
“What, what?”
She even opened her mouth, which had been tightly shut up until now, and spoke. She couldn’t figure out what the hell she was asking. As she was facing her, she reached out her hand to him. Then, in the act of grabbing his pants and pulling him down, Usher reflexively grabbed the pants and stopped him from going down. I can’t figure out why this idiot is behaving like this and when I look at her in her bewilderment.
“Why?”
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
Even if he was an idiot, his outrageous actions were absurd. She asked if she didn’t know why, but she asked why, and her return was beyond imagination.
“Dad told me to teach you.”
“Dad, you say?”
Usher gave her a strange expression. The reason she was called an idiot and an idiot in Gyaai Village and was ostracized by her children was, of course, because she had no parents. She couldn’t help not knowing, because Usher had once taken an interest in that child, like himself, in the story that she had no parents. If he had someone he could call his father.
“You mean Uncle Mac?”
“Huh.”
She nodded her head. She knew roughly that someone in her town was taking care of her, but she was the kind of person that was her Uncle Mac. But even so, I couldn’t figure out why he had brought this child to his house. It was when Usher tried to think of the reason. She said the girl took off his pants first. Usher, who had taken off her panties and showed her her belongings, felt her face heat up and was about to say something.
“You you!?”
Gacking her, she licked her own cock. Aside from her feelings of shame, her own cock was already starting to swell at the touch of that moist, her pout. The problem didn’t just end there once. The girl licked his cock again and again with her babbling tongue, as if she knew that his cock was still swelling. In this out of the blue and humiliating situation, her Usher wanted to get out of it, but he didn’t hate the feeling of her, so he watched her lick her own cock.
“Hmm.”
And when Usher’s cock swelled up, the girl put his cock in her mouth and started sucking. The sound of a girl sucking a cock echoed in the quiet room. The girl licked every nook and cranny of his cock in her mouth with her babbling tongue, sucking only with her lips, keeping her teeth out of his cock. Whether or not she knew it was something that was used for something, she was sucking on his cock like it was really good. How long did she feel that she had done that with Belka, Usher said, feeling the sensation take her mind away, and she forgot to resist.
“Ahhh.”
The feeling of the warmth surrounding her cock and the feeling of her tongue licking wasn’t quite as good as the pussy, but it gave him a different kind of pleasure, and he made an unsightly noise. And how much did she suck on his cock? It wasn’t long before she burst into tears and poured out her semen. What made him even more startled was her act of biting and sucking on his dick until that moment, even as his cock twitched and gushed out. When the cock finally poured out all the semen. The girl licked her mouth off his cock. She bites on her cock until the very end as she sucks it clean. She raised her head and Usher looked up.
She looked like she was holding something, but she opened her mouth to reveal the contents. It was a vague liquid that was an irregular mixture of white and transparent, but it was, of course, the semen that his cock must have poured out. Then she closed her mouth again, followed by a gurgling sound. He couldn’t believe it, but she kindly and proudly opened her mouth and showed it to him. There was no more thin liquid in her mouth. She swallowed his semen.
“You pervert?! Why are you doing this to me!”
Shoot, the sound of rain that had stopped came from outside the house. It seems that it was not a simple shower. It was fortunate that he had given him a chance to return home, but he couldn’t pay attention to the sound of rain running outside the house. Even though her partner was a woman other than Belka, Usher didn’t properly resist the unusual pleasure he felt from her cock and inadvertently enjoyed it. Her behavior of licking, biting, and sucking her own things as if she was used to it while harboring repulsive feelings toward herself. This was shocking. She was an idiot in her town. She was an idiot who couldn’t say anything and didn’t act unless someone told her to.
She thought so But how could he have done this as if he had simply waited for him to take off his clothes to change? It wasn’t hard for Usher to see that the behavior was because someone had taught him. Even the things she licked and sucked as if she was begging her own things, I wouldn’t have known if someone hadn’t taught me.
“Who made this…!”
At that moment, Usher realized. That Mac was the only thing she could teach this idiot to do these things. Besides, before he left, he said that he wanted to have fun and return it, and because this child was the only one who could say that. The moment she realized that, a vertigo that seemed to shake her head made Usher sit down. From the beginning she had been vaguely expecting it. But she didn’t want to believe Mac because he was one of the few adults in town who were nice to him. That he treated this idiot’s parent as if he were an object.
“So, did Uncle Mac tell you to do that with Robert and Kerner yesterday?”
Usher asked anyway, even though he was already convinced.
“Yeah, because Dad told me to teach you how good this feels.”
It was also what he thought. But her face saying that was so empty and powerless to say that she felt good about the act and that she wanted to do it. Usher remembered that the girl had never been an idiot or an idiot. So she asked really just in case.
“How many times have you done this in this town with boys… No, even adults?”
As if she had never thought of it herself, she also answered him casually. As soon as Usher heard her words, he vomited from the feeling of nausea rising up inside him. She was lucky that at lunch she had fallen for Belka and hadn’t eaten the bread she had been given by Aunt Kate. Otherwise, she would have vomited it all up now. Usher is in earnest and she is determined to come up with a plan to leave this fucking town with Belka. He didn’t think Usher wanted to leave this town in the first place and become an adventurer. I couldn’t help but feel attached to the rural village I had lived in for a long time, which I couldn’t even remember, as my hometown.
Still, the reason he wanted to leave the village was because of something that happened around this time seven years ago. I don’t remember exactly who or what voice was the one who first brought the news to the village and spread it. Hearing the news at that time, he was, to put it mildly, insane. The news was that his older sister, who had taken care of him like a younger brother when his parents were away, went out of town and was found dead by a woodcutter who went to dig a tree.
Usher remembers. As he tried to approach his sister, he was unable to see everything because the adults kept holding him back and blocking his sight, but the familiar golden hair that shone through the gaps between the adults and the fishy smell of blood and a foreign smell that was incomparable to the smell he smelled at the slaughterhouse. The grown-ups told her that she must have been killed by monsters in the forest when her older sister went out of town because of her curiosity. Usher thought it couldn’t be. It wasn’t simply because he didn’t want to believe in his sister’s death. This is because she was a foolishly kind child who listened to adults well enough that her older sister was recognized even in her village.
However, her grown-ups clicked her tongue saying that she did not listen to her own words, and no one had any doubts about her death. He said that only Usher, who knew his sister better than anyone, had doubts about her death. It was from then. He started to feel a sense of alienation and stuffiness in this rural town.
“I heard you won’t become a woodcutter even if you die? Are you going to become a woodcutter after all?”
“It’s not like that, so shut up.”
Usher gave a nervous reply to Robert’s question as if teasing him as he was tying up a fork and preparing to dig a tree.
“What is that day? Why are you so sensitive?”
“Hey.”
“Ah, I won’t.
Usher, who understood what Conner was joking about, glared at them, and they backed away from him with a whisper. After hearing what the idiot said yesterday, even the kids I thought of as friends felt reluctant and burdened. He picked up what the adults were saying straight away and was annoyed at the jokes he and the children were using even though he didn’t know what they meant. Usher, who had kicked out his friends, was silently helping the adults. The adults looked at him with admiration while being surprised when he, who had no intention of becoming a woodcutter, came out to help with his work. Usher was disgusted even by the eyes of the adults.
Now he had left the house early in the morning and was out where the woodcutters were preparing to go into the woods. Originally, Usher was only working as an errand boy in the village because of his stubbornness, but he knew that he needed money to leave the village and become an adventurer. These rural villages are so small that they live on barter, but in large cities and countries, each has its own currency in circulation. And in this town, trees were the only thing that could be sold outside to make money. Mac approached him.
“How was your last night?”
“…Yes.”
What the hell is the reason for asking such a thing out of the blue? Usher answered, holding back what he wanted to say with the rising earthenware.
“Hehe, is that so? Did you think about working thanks to that? I guess I’ll have to borrow this often.”
“Thank you.”
No matter how stupid he is, it was hard to answer his words of openly treating people as objects. Still, he had to answer. Otherwise, Usher was the only one at a disadvantage. This time, Usher realized what he heard from the fool. In this rural village, orphans like herself who had no parents were no different from strangers who didn’t care what happened. Maybe it was a realization too late. The woodcutter’s preparations were soon completed, and Usher was able to officially step out of town for the first time.
“Why do adults go to cut trees alone?”
“I don’t know, it’s dangerous.”
Robert and Kerner chatted while picking up a moderately dry branch. As they said, the adults told them to collect the branches, saying that cutting down trees was still dangerous for them, and they went deeper into the forest. Because it had rained yesterday, the ground was slippery and dry branches were hard to find. Since it is a forest where large trees grow, it is difficult to get sunlight, so I hit branches of appropriate size with a scythe and stacked them on a fork. It was when Usher was gathering as many twigs as he could to avoid thinking about yesterday. They looked at him and talked.
“Hey, Usher!”
I even ignored calling them openly, so when I turned around, they beckoned.
“Come and see!”
It was suspicious that he called him while holding his breath while looking at the surroundings, but when he approached, wondering why he was doing that.
“Do you see that over there?”
“House?”
Where Robert pointed, there was a shack nestled in a small clearing. First of all, it’s a street where people go, but it was suspicious that there was a house on a place where only woodcutters walked, but the house looked very old. The wooden planks that made up the walls were peeled off and looked like tree bark, and the roof covered with moss and unknown soot looked like it was about to collapse at any moment. The windowless, doorless house was positioned in that space really out of the blue. Usher looked like an abandoned house no matter how you looked at it, but it didn’t seem to be the case for the children.
“Isn’t that the house in the town rules?”
“Where do monsters live?”
“What are you talking about?”
At their words, Usher forgot what he didn’t want to care about and asked. It was because of what Kerner said was a monster. Apparently, the village elders had told her that her sister had gone out of town and was killed by a monster. I didn’t believe the story, but it bothered me. When Usher showed interest, they chatted excitedly, with a hint of fear.
“You know the rule in our town is that if you go into the woods, don’t enter any house you find, right?”
“Uh.”
I didn’t memorize everything, but it seemed like there was such a rule, so I answered roughly.
“I was curious about why there was such a rule, so I asked my mom for a while.”
“So?”
His heart tingled when he casually talked about the parents he didn’t have, but he didn’t show it and listened to the story.
“The reason it shouldn’t go in is because there’s a monster living in that house!”
I thought it would be an interesting story, but it turned out to be absurd. They looked like they weren’t like this when he looked bored, but Usher wasn’t interested. Village rules were just village rules. I don’t know what’s in there, but Usher didn’t care. Rather than that, it was first to prepare to leave this village. But then Robert put on an expression that seemed to know something.
“Ah~ I see. You’re scared, aren’t you?”
“What?”
Isn’t that what you’re saying because you’re in a bad mood?
“Isn’t that right? We’re going to go in there, but aren’t we just trying to get you into it?”
How did he know that they didn’t even tell me they were going in there? Usher was dumbfounded, but what pride did he find himself standing in front of the door with them. If you look closely at the house you thought there was no door, there is a hidden door. Standing in front of the door, they swallowed. Conner’s hand on the doorknob could be seen shaking slightly.
“Hey, open it?”
“Uh.”
“Really open!”
“Oh, open it quickly!”
I knew that Kerner was normally timid, but at this point he was frustrated. He grabbed the hand holding the door with a fever and pulled it forcibly, so the door opened easily enough to be hard to believe it was the door of a run-down house.
“What, what do you have?”
Robert, who had his eyes closed, asked cautiously, but Usher and Connor saw clearly that it wasn’t worth it.
“Look for yourself.”
“What, nothing.”
Usher sighed at the sight of Robert closing and opening his eyes and muttering incredulously. After provoking him like that, he is afraid of himself the most. It was dark because there were no windows, but the inside of the house, dimly visible in the sunlight coming through the door, was indeed empty. Only the smell of old, thick metal, like bitter rust, wafted from inside the house. Again, thinking that none of the village rules were right, he shut the door of the house.
“I keep picking up twigs, so what do I do when the grown-ups come back and see that there are not enough kindling for the festival?”
Usher diligently gathered branches to impress the adults even a little. He thought that by this time he had nothing to do with the cabin anymore. He didn’t know that sooner or later he would learn the hideous secret of the cabin.
