Luo Cheng had grown accustomed to waking up to find someone in his room, whether it was Cafe, Teio, Sky, or Tazuna—the high-affinity horse girls often did this. However, today was different. While enduring a maddening sensation, Luo Cheng tried to move his arms with all his might. It was as if he had lost control of his body. He was completely paralyzed and couldn't even lift a single finger, no matter how hard he tried.
Sleep paralysis? Is this sleep paralysis?!
Luo Cheng thought of the scientific phenomenon, though he preferred to explain it with a physical one. The person had their back to him, and he could only vaguely see a large tail that blended into the darkness. The color seemed like Cafe's, but the light was too dim for Luo Cheng to be certain. But this person was definitely a high-affinity horse girl.
"Gururu... gururu..."
The sounds sped up. Luo Cheng clenched his teeth. This person... is too powerful! He wanted to move, but he couldn't. He couldn't even say a word. This feeling of being a passive recipient was like being tied up and tickled on the soles of his feet. His brain was scrambled, but the other person seemed to be enjoying this random dominance over him.
The tail swayed leisurely, and the black silhouette quickly undulated. Luo Cheng faintly heard a girl's laughter.
It's not Cafe! Luo Cheng was sure. Unfortunately, his consciousness was already drifting further away with the sounds.
In the daytime, it was Junakawa Tazuna, and at night, an unidentified horse girl. The time between them was so short, and since his body didn't refresh in the real world, Luo Cheng still felt the fatigue from the day. He didn't know how long it had been, but Luo Cheng's body trembled and he completely lost his strength. A powerful drowsiness came over him. The tail wrapped around his neck and rubbed against his cheek. In a daze, Luo Cheng finally saw the black horse girl lift her body. The faint moonlight shone on her, giving her fair skin a translucent sheen. The girl looked up.
"Gudu... gu..."
On her flawless profile, Luo Cheng thought he saw a curve on the corner of her lips.
"Trainer, you are truly interesting. Please continue to please me~"
The next morning, the chirping of birds outside the window woke Luo Cheng. There were no birds or animals in the game world. Even if Luo Cheng searched the entire forest, he couldn't even find a single ant, so hearing the sounds of other creatures was a luxury for him.
Yawning, Luo Cheng slowly sat up. He suddenly remembered what happened last night and quickly checked his body. He was wearing his pajamas, the drawstrings were tied, and everything seemed normal. There were no strange dry marks on the bed. What exactly happened last night? Why couldn't he move? Was it sleep paralysis, or was he drugged? If it was the latter, why were there no traces?
Could I have been dreaming...? Luo Cheng's mind was filled with questions.
A phantom horse girl... Suddenly, Luo Cheng remembered something. Cafe's character background seemed to have... Knock, knock! A knock on the door interrupted Luo Cheng's train of thought, and Tokai Teio's voice came through.
"Trainer, get up! If you don't, my great Teio-sama will have to punish you!" She turned the doorknob, and with a click, the door opened.
Luo Cheng didn't have the habit of locking his door. He would basically sleep wherever he felt like it, a habit he had picked up in the game world.
Tokai Teio bounced into the room. She wasn't wearing her school uniform but a yellow off-the-shoulder t-shirt paired with blue shorts, exposing her fair, tender legs. She looked cute and lively, and a little bit edible.
[Tokai Teio: Casual Clothes Unlocked]
A line of text appeared in front of Luo Cheng. Seeing Luo Cheng on the bed, Tokai Teio's eyes lit up, and she leaped towards him with great energy.
"Trainer, you're sleeping in!" She rolled up Luo Cheng's blanket and rolled to his side. "And here I, your great Teio-sama, came all the way to find you. Aren't you excited? How could you be sleeping?!"
As she spoke, Tokai Teio burrowed into Luo Cheng's blanket like a spring roll. Her ears, left outside, wiggled excitedly, and the sound of her inhaling came from inside.
"Trainer's scent... so rich... and thick..."
"Thick what? I'm already up." Luo Cheng rolled over. His body was weak, and he saw the world in a much purer light. It was as if all his worldly thoughts had been sucked out by that black figure.
"Did you eat breakfast?" Luo Cheng asked.
"No."
"I'll make you something."
"I'm already full."
"Hmm?"
Tokai Teio peeked out, her face flushed. She wiggled her white feet outside the blanket and giggled. "Just smelling the Trainer's scent was enough to fill me up."
So that's how you want to play it. Too bad it won't work on me. In my "sage" state, I am invincible.
"I'll make you some honey pancakes, the kind you like. And I'll raise your already maxed-out affection."
"The Trainer wants to serve me so badly? Then my great Teio-sama won't be shy." She climbed out of Luo Cheng's blanket, slipped on her slippers, and walked next to Luo Cheng as if she were in her own home.
Watching his skilled cooking, Tokai Teio pinched her chin. "Very good, Trainer. You work so hard to satisfy my great Teio-sama's taste buds."
"Are you treating me like a housewife..."
"Horse girls are based on strength. In my eyes, the Trainer is the female, and I am the male! What's wrong with being a housewife?"
"Huh? Is there such a thing?" It was the first time Luo Cheng had heard this. So horse girls were the dominant ones!
"After I become the undefeated Triple Crown, I'll go out and work, and the Trainer can stay at home and make me delicious food. Hehe~" Tokai Teio let out a satisfied sound, lost in her wonderful fantasy.
"No, I can't do that. As a man, even in the face of a horse girl, I must be in control. I'm the one who should be doing the 'horse-jumping'."
"The Trainer can try. Let's see if I'll pin you down or you'll pin me down."
"Underestimating me will come with a price, Teio. Your little body is easy for me to pick up."
"Hehe~ It's not so certain who will pick up whom! But it might be a bit uncomfortable if I carried the Trainer. It feels much more comfortable when the Trainer carries me."
It's comfortable whether he's carried normally or backwards. I can even roll my eyes and make a V-sign. That's what the Trainer likes to see, isn't it?
Tokai Teio understood him very well. She swayed her tail.
Luo Cheng placed the honey pancakes on the table. "We're going to the arcade later."
"Coming!" Tokai Teio picked up her chopsticks and started eating her breakfast.
"Delicious!"
One day, she would marry her Trainer and have him make foals with her every day!
