I found myself in the IS maintenance room alone, which was a rare occurrence. It wasn't the new maintenance room that was built to accommodate the increase in demand after all the female students got their own IS units. Instead, it was the original maintenance room that had been there since before I enrolled.
Compared to the new one, this maintenance room was unpopular and quiet, with only one booth at the very back showing a "occupied" light. I opened the door to that booth and stepped inside.
"Ah… Masaruya-kun…!"
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Kan"
"No, not at all… hehehe… mmm♪"
"Whoa…"
As I entered the booth, Kanzashi, wearing her IS suit, lit up with joy and ran to hug me. I could feel her soft body clearly through the thin fabric of her suit. Kan gave me a look of complete trust, hugging me tightly and looking so happy. I found her straightforward affection so endearing that I hugged her back, and we spent a blissful moment together.
From her smooth hair, which was shorter than mine, came a pleasant scent of shampoo and a girl's fragrance. I gently stroked her head and ran my fingers through her hair. Kan closed her eyes in delight and leaned into my touch. The sweet scent from her hair spread further, and the silky, pleasant texture of her hair soothed me. Feeling her body against mine, my crotch swelled up in honest arousal, and Kan noticed it.
"Mmm♪ Masaruya-kun… you're thinking naughty things…"
"You're the one who's hugging me so tightly, Kanzashi."
"...Just a little longer…"
"Haha, your breasts are pressed against me, Kanzashi."
"No… I'm pressing them against you…"
Kan snuggled even closer, and her closeness made me feel even more aroused.
"Kan…"
"...Yeah. Mmm❤"
Kan felt the same way. When I called her name and brought my face closer, she blushed, nodded, and gently pressed her lips against mine.
"Mmm♪ Ammu… ah… chuu"
Kanzashi's soft lips were pressed against mine, rubbing together. The spot where our lips met felt hot, and a gentle, fluffy pleasure enveloped me with her sweet breath. I opened my eyes and looked at Kanzashi's face as she kissed me. Seeing such a sweet and loving girl with a blissful expression seeking me out made me feel incredibly happy.
I felt so much affection for her that I tightened my embrace. I held her delicate, soft back, and her soft breasts were pressed against my body. She closed her eyes and sucked on my lips, and a sweet sigh escaped her mouth.
"Ah… mmm… chuu♪ Mmm… fuu… Masaruya-kun… this feels so good♪"
"You're so cute, Kanzashi."
"Really…? I'm so happy…"
When I gently pulled my lips away, Kan put a hand to her mouth and smiled. Her delight over a kiss was so cute that I stroked her head and smiled back. Being stroked and smiled at by the man she loved, Kanzashi's eyes welled up, and she nodded, leaning her cheek against my chest. The sweet scent from her hair wafted up again, arousing me once more.
"Alright, let's get to work, Kanzashi."
"...Yeah❤ Let's do our best."
I boldly wrapped my arms around Kanzashi's slender waist, escorted her, and snapped my fingers to turn on the lights. The back of the dark booth was illuminated, revealing a white IS unit resting there.
"Hehe…♪ Isn't it cool?"
"Yeah. It's the best work. You did great, Kanzashi."
"Mmm♪ You're treating me like a kid… But, I'm happy…♪"
I let out a sigh of admiration at the beautiful, majestic silver body of the unfinished machine. I stroked Kanzashi's beautiful hair again in praise. The silver body with its red drive parts and nine bits with golden edges gave it a metallic and powerful look that stirred a man's inner robot enthusiast.
"Nine bits, modeled after a nine-tailed fox… it'll definitely suit Honne."
"Yeah, absolutely. Are you looking forward to it?"
"Of course. My wife will be wearing this cool IS, you know? I'm so excited…!"
Seeing the new fox-themed IS, my heart pounded as I imagined my beloved Honne wearing it. She would look like a goddess, a cute and lovely goddess of the fox, soaring through the sky with a joyful expression. I can't wait.
"It's not just 'this IS,' you know? This child's name is… 'Kyūbi no Tamashī' (Soul of the Nine-Tailed Fox)."
"'Kyūbi no Tamashī'… that's the perfect name for Honne…!"
"Yeah… because it's Honne's special IS, and it's also your important engagement ring for her… It has to be the most wonderful thing in the world…!"
Hearing the name of Honne's custom-made IS from Kanzashi, the name felt perfect. It was a wonderful name. The design and the name, everything about it was perfect for Honne. I hugged Kan in my arms and stroked her butt in appreciation.
The IS resting before us was Honne's custom unit, which Kan and I were collaborating on, and it would also be my engagement ring for her: "Kyūbi no Tamashī." This would be the ultimate machine to serve as a testament to my love, to always protect Honne, to make her the strongest person in the world, and to make her beautiful at all times.
"Mmm…❤ So, today, let's work on the unique abilities of 'Kyūbi no Tamashī'?"
"Yeah."
Prompted by Kanzashi, I took off my clothes and lay down on a mat that seemed out of place in the maintenance room. My naked, fully erect cock pointed towards the ceiling, making a proud, sexual display. Kan blushed, looked at my penis with affection, and knelt beside me, leaning in to look at my face. I was thrilled to have a beautiful girl who liked me so close.
"It's so big today too… Masaruya-kun's penis…❤"
"Yeah, isn't it cool?"
"Yeah… it really is…! Mmm… so, I'll… jerk you off, okay?"
Funyun❤
"Mmm…♪"
Kanzashi's body fell forward and she was on top of me. Her soft breasts were gently pressed against my chest through her IS suit.
"Am I… too heavy…?"
"Not at all. Lean on me more. I want to be even closer to you, Kanzashi."
"...Okay…❤"
At my words, Kan leaned on me even more. Our bodies were pressed together, and I could feel her warmth. She looked at me with a heated gaze and tentatively reached for my penis.
"Mmm… it's so hard…"
"Wahh… Kanzashi, your palms are so smooth…"
"Th-then… I'll… jerk you off, okay…? Mmm…"
Shu… shu…
"Ahhhh…"
"Jerk… jerk… does that feel good…?"
"Yeah… it feels so good…! Wah!"
"...Masaruya-kun's… face when you're feeling good is… so cute♪ Jerk, jerk…♪"
Kanzashi's slender fingers wrapped around my shaft, gently stroking it up and down. Her warm, soft palm moved across my sensitive parts, and her sweet voice and loving gaze soothed me. I let out a happy groan from the pleasure coming from my penis. I put my hand between her suit and her butt and stroked her directly.
"Kya…!? …Pervert!"
"Kanzashi's butt is pretty big and soft… It feels so good…"
"It-it's not that big…"
"It's so soft, my fingers are sinking into your butt cheeks… it's the best♪ And you're getting so good at jerking me off… you're so cute, Kan…!"
"Ugh… I-I'm happy… but… it's embarrassing…"
"Guh… Speaking of butts… will the nine tail bits make it hard to see Honne's butt?"
"Ah, then maybe we can have the tails spread out from her back to the sides…? That way, they won't overlap with her body as much…"
"I like that… let's do it that way…! Guh, whoa…! You're jerking me off faster…! Guh, this is so good…!"
"Ahnn❤ It's throbbing and getting bigger…♪ How is it…? Do you have some good ideas now…?"
"If you make me feel even better, Kanzashi, I feel like I can come up with more ideas…!"
"O-okay… I'll do my best…? Mmm… picha…"
"Wah!"
"Mmm♪ D-does that feel good…? Ammu… chiro…"
Kanzashi's grip on my shaft tightened, her handjob became more intense, stimulating my penis. She then pressed her lips to my nipples and rolled them with her tongue, caressing them. The erotic sounds of her tongue's movement and the stimulation of my sensitive spots made me feel good.
Chuu, chuu, picha…
"Ah, ahhh… Kanzashi, that's… so good…! Wah…"
"Mmmufu…♪ Kuchu❤"
With her handjob and nipple play, I was so aroused my hips almost lifted off the mat. From Kanzashi's caresses, ideas for making Honne's IS even sexier and cuter started to flow.
"Whoa, guh…! That's it…! There's a saying, 'Kitsune no Yomeiri' (Fox's Wedding)…!"
"Ammu… the sun shower…?"
"Wah… yeah…! That's it…! How about the unique ability is to control the weather?"
"Mmm… the weather…?"
Kan tilted her head cutely while continuing to jerk me off. I grabbed her butt, my fingers sinking into her flesh, and spoke my ideas in a state of high excitement.
"Yeah…! That's perfect…! My wife's abilities are on par with a god's, so it has to be something that amazing…! To control the heavens freely, ahh… if I'm a god, then Honne is a goddess…!"
I imagined Honne deploying her IS, a being who can command even the heavens as my wife, and I was completely captivated. It was Honne's custom IS. It had to have the best performance in the world!
"Ah, ahhhh…!!"
"Whoa, mmm… amazing… some thick pre-cum is dripping out…❤"
From my excited head, a thick, white, sperm-filled precum, far more potent than any ordinary man's, emerged. Kan instinctively felt affection for it and looked at it with a dreamy gaze, licking her lips. For an excited me, that alone was too much.
"Hah, hah…!"
"Masaruya-kun… your breathing is getting heavy…? Your penis… is so swollen… it looks like it's in pain…?"
"You're so good at this, Kanzashi, my excitement is out of control…! But thanks to you, I've got a great idea…! Guh, Kan…! This is your reward…! Take off your clothes and straddle my face…!"
"O-okay…! I understand…! Whatever you say, Masaruya-kun…"
My excitement was so high that my precum was dripping white. I couldn't wait to unleash this passion on the obedient, beautiful girl who was pressing her sexy body against me. I gave her a bold command to enjoy her body, and Kanzashi, without hesitation, grabbed her IS suit and pulled it down, exposing her naked body to me.
"Hah, hah…! Kanzashi's breasts…! Her pussy…!!"
"Aww… your eyes are so intense… it-it's embarrassing…"
Kanzashi, who had rushed to take off her suit to not keep me waiting, had revealed her slightly smaller but perfectly shaped breasts and a pussy that made my penis throb just by looking at it. The sight embarrassed her. The tips of her clean, bowl-shaped breasts were perky and pink, and the neat pussy tightly closed over her soft thighs was so erotic that it was impossible not to get excited as a man.
(Pussy…! A woman's pussy…!! I want to fuck it…! I want to put my penis in…!)
"Mmm… so, I'll straddle you… okay…? Mmm…"
My lust for Kanzashi's white, smooth naked body grew. Kan timidly lowered her hips and brought her crotch closer to my face, which was panting with excitement. Her body blocked the light, casting a shadow on my face, and her crotch, in the backlight, loomed over me.
"Ahnnn…!❤"
"Mmmg…"
Finally, Kanzashi's thighs squeezed my face, and her female parts were pressed against my mouth. My cheeks were wrapped in her warm, soft flesh, and the most shameful part of Kan was pressed against me. Enveloped by her crotch, I felt like I was going to cum just from this.
"Hah, hah, here I go…! Mmm!"
"Kya…!? Ahnnn!"
Kuchu, chuu, kuchu❤
"Ahhhhh… delicious… mmm!"
"Ahhhhhh! Ahhh, ahnnn!"
I used my fingers to spread the hole in front of me, and the pungent, feminine smell intensified. The sight of the flesh of her erotic private parts squirming was burned into my eyes. I instinctively pushed my tongue into her and devoured her. Kan arched her back, letting out a feminine cry that resonated in my penis and filled the booth.
I rubbed my tongue against her ceiling, licking it widely. The taste of a cute girl's pussy, which secreted honey in response, made my head spin, and my rationality blurred even more. Wanting to enjoy Kanzashi's taste and reaction more, I became engrossed in cunnilingus.
"Ah…! Haahnnn…!! Heh, guh, kunnn…! K-Masaruya-kun, ahhh, don't suck so hard❤"
"Mmm…! Mmmmu, churu!"
When my tongue rubbed against the rough ceiling of her pussy, a warm, thick nectar was secreted from deep inside. I pursed my lips and deliberately made a slurping sound so Kan could hear it. She let out an even more lewd sound than before. I enjoyed the sweet-and-sour taste of her juices on my tongue and swallowed it. More honey overflowed from her depths, and the juice I couldn't swallow dripped down my chin. I wasn't disgusted by the stickiness; it excited me even more.
"Hin!? Ah… ahhhhh…❤ Your breath… is so warm…! Ahhh, your tongue… going in and out…! Ahnnn❤ I'm going… crazy…!"
"Ngh…! Hah, juru…! Ahhhh…! Kanzashi's… pussy juice… it's overflowing…! So lewd…! Mmmmu"
"Ah, ahh… stop that…! You're gonna get my clit…!"
I mindlessly slurped Kanzashi's juice and crushed her clitoris with my finger, playing with it. Kanzashi's knees, straddling my face, trembled, and her juices became cloudy and more abundant.
"Your pussy is a total flood now…! Look, it's so thick and it's stretching like a string."
"Lewd…❤ Masaruya-kun, you're so mean… hauu❤"
From the wide hole of her pussy, thick, sticky, feminine-smelling juice dripped down, making my face sticky. When I scooped it up with my finger and rubbed it with my thumb, it made a squelching, obscene sound. I took my mouth off her and blew on her wide, twitching pussy, and her body shivered violently, letting out a melting groan.
(Ahhh… that's it… Honne's IS… can make it rain heavily, drop lightning, cause tornados…! Such amazing power…! A true god… no, my goddess…!)
"Ahhh, hiku…❤"
Kanzashi's obscene behavior of getting her crotch so wet that my face was soaked from cunnilingus made me think of rain, and I got an idea for Honne's IS. Kanzashi's lewd behavior was stimulating my brain, giving me an image of a more lewd and powerful design for Honne. The technical problems of making it happen, like the specs and energy, were no problem with my abilities. All that was left was the look of the IS to maximize Honne's cuteness and make her happy. For this, I couldn't rely on my abilities. I needed Kanzashi's female perspective, as she's known Honne the longest and knows her cuteness the best. Just as Kanzashi's touch had sharpened my mind, I would now stimulate Kanzashi.
"Hah, hah… ahn…"
"Kan…"
"Masaruya-kun… mmm…❤"
I pulled myself out from between her legs, which were now limp from pleasure, and pinned Kan down on the mat, making her lie on her back. I could look down at her sweet, wistful face and her flushed body.
When I hugged her, she felt warm and good. Kan wrapped her arms around my back and hugged me back, and we kissed again. Her soft, moist lips met mine, and a sweet, pleasant sensation rose from where we touched.
"Mmm❤ Chuu, ahn… chuu, picha…"
"Ammu… mmm, chuu, kuchu…"
Without either of us saying anything, our light kiss turned into a deep kiss with our tongues intertwined, exchanging saliva. Kanzashi's sweet saliva was passed to me through our kiss, and our rubbing mucous membranes devoured the pleasure. Our arms tightened, and our bodies pressed closer, feeling each other's warmth.
"Ah…"
"Mmm… Kan… I'm ready…"
"Yeah… okay… Let's put your… big one… inside me and feel good together?"
I pulled my wet tongue out of her mouth, lifted my body, and looked at Kanzashi. She gave a small nod and spread her legs, inviting me in. My dick was already covered in a thick, sticky male juice that was too much to be called pre-cum, and it was screaming for sex.
"Aww… I want it… Masaruya-kun's…❤"
"I want to put it in you, Kan…!"
"Ah… mmm… put it in…!"
"You're so wet already… and it's so hot just at the entrance…"
"Y-yeah…! Ahnnn… I want to become one with you, mmm… ahhh!"
"Yeah… that's great…"
I rubbed my rock-hard cock against Kanzashi's slit. It was so hot and I could feel her so well that I felt like I was going to cum just from this. When I instinctively thrust my hips forward, my hard penis pushed open her slit and slid inside her. Her wet flesh clung to me, stroking my sensitive parts. The feeling of being wrapped in a warm jelly prompted me to ejaculate.
"Mmm, ahhhh…! It's so big…! Mmm, mm!"
"Kanzashi's face when you're feeling good… it's so sexy, guh…!"
"Yahh…❤ You're stretching me out…! Ahh, ahnnn!"
"Ugh… ahh…"
"Mmmmmm…!! Ahnnn…!"
I pushed my cock deep into Kanzashi's hot pussy, connecting with her deeply. I gazed at her eyes, which were welling up, and her face, which had melted and become sexy, and I pushed my penis all the way to the deepest part. Even though we had had sex many times, her pussy was as tight as a virgin's, squeezing my member.
"Wah… it's in…"
"Ah, ahnnn… s-so amazing… ahnn… just having it in… it's like a shock of electricity…♪"
"Kan… mmm…"
"Ah… mmm…❤ Chuu, mmm…"
My cock was inserted all the way, and Kan and I were connected at the deepest point. Connected, we kissed again. We intertwined our tongues from the start, rubbing them against each other and devouring the pleasure. The obscene sound of our saliva mingling echoed in the maintenance room.
"Ammu, mmm… chuu❤ Faah♪ Masaruya-kun… you're so good at kissing…❤"
"Mmm… It's your fault, Kanzashi, for being so cute."
"C-cute…? Really…?"
"Of course! I'm so lucky to have such a cute girlfriend to have sex with."
"Hehehe…♪ I'm so happy…❤"
Connected and kissing, Kan looked at me with a look of ecstasy and hugged me, snuggling close. I stroked her cheek, smiled, and whispered sweet words to her. She beamed with joy, and the sweet mood deepened.
"Mmm♪ Masaruya-kun… move…?"
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah…❤ I want to… feel you so much…♪"
Kan asked me to move, wanting me. There was no reason to refuse a cute and horny request from a girl, especially not when it was Kanzashi. I gently held her cute hips and focused on my penis, which was already on the verge of exploding from her tightness, and moved my hips.
Kuchu…❤
"Ahnnn♪ Mmm… so good… ahnn♪"
"Ah… Kanzashi's pussy… feels so good…"
Guchu, guchu
"Hin…! Ah, my stomach… ahn, it's rubbing, ahnn♪"
"Ugh, ah… the wet folds… are rubbing against the head of my penis and catching… Wah, I'm gonna cum so soon…!"
"Ahhh, ahnn…❤ It's okay… whenever you want… mmm…! Whenever Masaruya-kun… wants to cum…!"
"Wah… just a little movement makes a squishing sound… and it's so hot…"
"Mmm, ah, ahhh…! More, aww, make a mess of me… hiu…! It's okay…!"
"Ahhhhh…!!"
I mindlessly thrust my hard, erect cock inside Kanzashi, making a sensual, squelching sound. Her moans spread sweetly through the room, a sign that she was feeling good.
"Hyu! K-Masaruya-kun's… ahhh❤ Every time you hit the back… hauh, I feel a shock…!"
"Ahhh, the back, wah…! It's hitting the back, the head of my penis is kissing it, and it feels so good…!"
"Mmmmmm…! It's turning inside out…!! Hinn!"
"I can't… stop my hips…! Kanzashi, this feels so good!"
"Ahhhhhh❤ Masaruya-kun, I love you, I love you…! Ahnn! Honne… ahhh❤ Make her so happy… fuck her so much…! Ahhhhhh…!"
"Wah, it's clenching again…! Of course…! Guh, Kan too… Honne too… you're my women…! I'll have sex with both of you so much!"
"Yeah…! Ahhh…! I'm so happy… hiu…! I want to have sex with you a lot… together with Honne…"
"Yeah…! Kanzashi, I'll… make you my wife too…! Wah, ahhh!"
It felt so good, my head was buzzing with every rub of my penis, and my hips wouldn't stop, violently thrusting inside Kanzashi. As she looked at me in the midst of her pleasure, Kan moaned but wished for Honne's happiness. I wanted both Kan and Honne for myself, to make them my wives, and I declared it according to my desires.
"Yahh, yahh…! S-stop…! I… I'm gonna…! Ahnnn…!"
"Ah, ahhh…! Me too… I'm gonna…!"
"Ahhhhh!! I-I'm cummingggg❤"
"Wah, ahhh…"
A strong pleasure surged from deep inside my body, taking away my rationality. The tip of my swollen, hard cock crushed against the back of Kanzashi's pussy, and she arched her back, letting out a scream of pleasure. At the same time, her pussy, which was wet and frothy with juices, clenched and throbbed.
Dokun!… Dokk, Dopyu!❤
"Eep…! Hin❤ Ahhhhhh❤ It's so hot…! Ahnn! I-it's coming out…! Ah, ah, ahhh…"
Unable to bear the pleasure, I released a hot burst inside Kanzashi. My cock throbbed and trembled, pouring my thick, jelly-like cum inside her.
"Ahhh, it's so hot… ahn…❤"
"Ah… ahh… there's more…!"
"Y-yeah… Masaruya-kun's… hot stuff… ahh❤ So much…♪"
The pressure I had been holding back was released all at once, and it felt so good that I thought my hips would melt and my ejaculation wouldn't stop. Kan also clung to me, moaning with pleasure.
"Hah… hah…"
"Mmm❤ Masaruya-kun's hot stuff… I can feel it spreading in my stomach…❤"
A large amount of cum, enough to fill her uterus, was poured inside Kanzashi, and she smiled happily. After I finished ejaculating, I collapsed on top of Kanzashi, feeling drained. We hugged each other, catching our breath.
"Ahnn…❤ Masaruya-kun's hot stuff… I can feel it swimming around…♪"
"Yeah… that felt good, Kanzashi."
"Mmm♪"
We caught our breath, sweat on our foreheads, and looked at each other. I stroked Kanzashi's hair and cherished her. My cock was still hard, plugging her pussy and trapping my semi-solid cum in her uterus. Hugging her sweaty body, the places where our skin touched felt warm and comfortable.
"Hehe… it's amazing… when you cum inside me, my mind goes blank and I fall in love with you even more…❤"
"Me too… getting jerked off so much by you, my mind went blank too…"
We hugged each other, enjoying the afterglow. Kanzashi, still connected to me, slowly sat up to face me, and projected a display and keyboard into the air.
"Having sex with you… made me get some ideas for making Honne cuter…"
The projected screen showed a well-made 3D model of Honne, and Kan typed quickly.
"Since she's a fox, she has to have animal ears… I won't budge on that…! And she'll have bits like talismans that shoot out electricity…! Since she's a fox, she needs some Japanese-style equipment too…!"
As Kan typed, a mechanical fox ear appeared on the hologram of Honne, making her cuter. I was impressed by Kanzashi's ability, as a close friend, to bring out Honne's cuteness.
"Hehe… Honne being cute makes me happy, and it makes you happy, too, right…? And you being happy makes me happy, too. I can't put it into words, but that's what it is…♪"
"Yeah, I'm glad I asked you for help. You're making Honne so cute."
Funyu
"Ahnn❤"
Perhaps the sex had stimulated her creativity, but Kan was quickly deciding on the design of "Kyūbi no Tamashī." I gently cupped and kneaded her beautiful breasts. Kan let out a happy cry in delight.
"Imagining Honne in this cute IS, having a marital life with her… I'm getting excited already…!"
"Hehe… the baby Honne and Masaruya-kun have will definitely be so cute…!"
"..."
Watching Kan wholeheartedly celebrating Honne and me getting together solidified another resolution in my mind.
"...Yeah. Honne and… Kanzashi, I'll have sex with you two side by side and get you both pregnant."
"Yeah… Honne and… wait, what?"
"I'll make Honne my wife, and then I'll make you my wife too. I'll cherish both of you and get both of you pregnant."
"Huh? Ah… huh?"
"Kanzashi."
Kan was confused, so I pinched her chin and continued, choosing my words carefully.
"Be my wife, and…"
"N-NOOOO!!"
"Ugh!"
I was about to propose to her, but Kanzashi's face turned beet red, and she covered my mouth with her hands.
"Ah…! Uh, um…! I'm so happy, of course...! But… you have to propose to Honne first before me…!"
Kan looked at me with a strong expression, showing that this was the one thing she wouldn't give up.
"...Okay, I get it. I'll tell Honne how I feel first."
"Y-yeah…"
"But after that, I'm definitely going to make you my woman and my wife, so be ready, okay?"
"...Yeah!!"
"Well, before that… I have to punish you with some sex."
"Hwah!? K-Masaruya-kun… nooo… we have to improve Kyūbi no Tamashī first…"
"Nooo♪"
"Eh… kya!?"
I shook my head at Kan and made her get on all fours.
After that, the dry sound of a slap on a butt and the endless moans of a girl filled the maintenance room, but the lights stayed on until curfew, and no one heard a thing.
