Campione Scumbag in Mash-up Anime-Chapter 117: Hayasaka Ai’s Concerns

Seeing Itsuki and Hayasaka's expressions still disbelieving that individuals standing at the pinnacle of humanity were due to luck, Ren provided further examples.

"The reason Godou managed to kill Verethragna was because the Persian God of War allowed him to. That's always the case. Verethragna was bored, Godou entertained him with an interesting fight, and Godou successfully retaliating with his death only amused him further. Before returning to the Domain of Immortality after being defeated, Verethragna told Godou that his next incarnation would look forward to a true battle when they met again centuries or millennia later."

"My situation was also somewhat similar. The Greatest Archer in Chinese Mythology, Hou Yi, also allowed me to kill him. If he had fought me with all his might, using his full power, it's highly likely that I wouldn't have been able to kill him and would have been killed instead."

Hearing Ren talk about dangerous things that threatened his life, Itsuki immediately scolded him with a worried tone.

"Hubby! What were you thinking?! Why would you do something so reckless?! What if you had been killed?! Do you want our child to grow up without a father?!"

Instead of apologizing to calm Itsuki, Ren reached out and gently grasped her hand.

"Itsuki-sensei, power is necessary in a world filled with hidden dangers, dangers you aren't even aware of. But I won't be careless. I will always be careful, for your sake and our child's. You are my priority, and I will do everything I can to protect you both. Trust me."

Ren stroked Itsuki's cheek with his thumb, looking directly into her eyes and uttering hypocritical words.

"I will always come back to you, Itsuki-sensei. You are my home."

"Hubby..."

Swayed by his sweet words, Itsuki, who was inexperienced in romance and considered him her first love, felt her heart warm and flutter. Her worries and anger slowly subsided, replaced by a deep sense of security and love.

'Just as expected of Ren-sama. He's so skilled at winning over women with just a few sentences.'

Beside Itsuki, Hayasaka thought to herself that Ren was very good at toying with women's hearts.

Normally, she would never get close to such a playboy. But what could she do? After surrendering her body to Ren, she who was actually a conservative and traditional woman, felt it impossible to look for another man.

Pushing aside the bad thoughts about Ren in her mind, Hayasaka tried to accept the reality. Her still unanswered curiosity made her ask again.

"Ren-sama, then why can a human become a Campione after killing a Heretic God?"

Recalling information from his previous life, Ren knew more about the God-Slaying Ritual than other Campiones.

"Becoming a Campione is fundamentally the pet project of three gods."

That explanation made Itsuki and Hayasaka exchange confused glances. Ren simplified his words to make them easier for laypeople to understand.

"Prometheus conceptualized the entire ritual, Epimetheus provided the crucial artifact called the Circle of Usurpation, and Pandora oversees the Circle of Usurpation and uses her Divine Authority as the 'woman who gives everything' to control it."

"Once everything is ready, the Circle of Usurpation is now exclusively used by Pandora to create a Campione. If Pandora allows it, Campiones can even decide what kind of Divine Authority they want to steal after killing a Heretic God."

"..."

Talking about gods felt like listening to ancient superstitions and legends. Itsuki and Hayasaka probably wouldn't have believed this if anyone else had told them. However, the man before them was living proof that all of it truly existed.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

At precisely three in the afternoon, silence enveloped a part of the apartment. Itsuki had fallen into a midday nap in her room, exhausted perhaps from the mixed emotions and hormonal changes of her pregnancy. However, in another room, the atmosphere was very different.

Behind a tightly closed door, Ren and Hayasaka unleashed their desires wildly and uncontrollably. Their bodies intertwined, moving in a primal, burning rhythm.

"Nghh..."

Hayasaka's suppressed moans mixed with Ren's low growls created an intimate symphony that was only faintly audible outside the room.

Hayasaka's blonde hair was spread out on the pillow, damp with sweat. Every touch of Ren aroused waves of pleasure that made her bite her lip hard, trying to suppress the groans that wanted to escape. She was well aware of her position; despite sharing intimacy with the same man, she was only a concubine, and Itsuki was the primary one.

Hayasaka's skin flushed crimson under the traces of Ren's burning kisses. Her fingers clutched the sheets tightly as the man traced every curve of her body.

"Ah~"

A intoxicating sensation coursed through her, making her momentarily forget her boundaries and status. Hayasaka only focused on the fiery turmoil within her, on the touches that made her lose control.

*PA-PA-PA-PA!*

Ren buried his face in Hayasaka's neck, inhaling her scent mixed with sweat and passion.

"Hahh..."

His hands explored every inch of Hayasaka's body, caressing, squeezing, and triggering responses that made the girl moan softly.

"Mmm..."

They exchanged hot, panting kisses, unspoken words filled with desire.

"Your body is amazing, Ai." Ren said between kisses.

*PA-PA-PA-PA!*

Their movements grew more intense, their bodies swaying in an increasingly rapid rhythm.

*Creak...* *Creak...*

The bed creaked softly.

Hayasaka closed her eyes, savoring every sensation that peaked within her.

"Ah... Deeper, Ren-sama..." She requested in a hoarse voice.

*PA-PA-PA-PA!*

*PA-PA-PA-PA!*

*PA-PA-PA-PA!*

"Is this what you want, Ai?" Ren asked in a low voice, right in her ear.

"Yes... Oh God... It's driving me crazy..." Hayasaka moaned, losing control even more.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

An hour later, Hayasaka finally begged to stop.

Her body felt limp and powerless, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and even moving a finger felt like a struggle.

"Ren-sama... that's enough... I can't anymore..." She whispered weakly.

On the other hand, Ren looked refreshed as if he had just woken up from a nap. He casually reached for his clothes and began to put them on.

Seeing this, Hayasaka sighed deeply.

"Your stamina is truly monstrous, Ren-sama. Perhaps you need dozens of women if you want to be truly satisfied." She complained in a tired tone.

Ren only smiled at her complaint.

"I'll take that as a compliment, Ai."

"Ugh..."

Touching her stomach, which felt slightly swollen, not from food but from being recently filled with the man's many seeds, Hayasaka couldn't help but wonder.

"Should... should I take a contraceptive pill?"

Ren paused from buttoning his shirt and looked at her.

"I've told you many times, Ai. We, the Campiones, are a different species from ordinary humans. It's very difficult for us to have children. Just look at Voban. He has lived for hundreds of years but has no descendants. As for Luo Hao... Well, she is a narcissistic and arrogant woman who considers no man worthy to stand beside her, let alone marry and have children."

Hayasaka looked at her stomach worriedly.

"But... difficult doesn't mean impossible, right? There's still a possibility I could get pregnant? To be sure, I'll try a pregnancy test later."

Ren shrugged indifferently. "It's up to you, Ai. Even if you really are pregnant, I wouldn't mind."

Hearing his casual reply, Hayasaka sighed weakly.

"But I... I'm not ready to be a mother in my second year of high school..." She said softly, her words reflecting the anxiety that was beginning to haunt her.

Imagining herself having to wear a high school uniform with a bulging pregnant stomach made Hayasaka shudder.

The sight felt so awkward and out of place with her image as a normal high school girl. Her teenage life, which should have been full of studying and having fun with friends, was suddenly threatened with a drastic change. The responsibility of a mother at such a young age felt so heavy and frightening.

"Haaah..."

Hayasaka sighed deeply, trying to brush those gloomy thoughts from her mind, but the worry still lingered in her heart.
