This is a Beta Test?! - A Literally Broken System

Chapter 196 36.5 Padding?

I couldn't help but sigh as I waited for Shizu's answer. I didn't know how or why she managed to even see Guidance and I doing the deed, but there was no way that we'll ever live this down even if we tried. The fact that Shizu saw us through the walls using [Code Watcher] was something that we'll never be able to negotiate. Every time we did it, there will always be a chance that our resident princess would spot us.

And that was both terrifying and embarrassing at the same time.

"Lady Guidance, would I be correct in that you two were... having sex?"

Oh fvck...

The smile on Shizu's face was both beautiful and alarming as she turned towards the bedsheets, my eyes trailing her gaze to the small lump where I knew Guidance was trying to avoid being seen. At the princess's callout, the lump twitched, the dev probably caught off guard at being addressed so directly.

"Yes..." Guidance's muffled reply echoed from beneath the sheets. "Now can you please go, Shizu? I'm kind of indecent right now... And haven't I told you to stop calling me that..."

Yikes... I could hear the shame even from where I was standing. Then again, my own embarrassment was through the roof with the way that Shizu was currently looking at us. She was still smiling, maybe due to the fact that she caught us in the act and she now had something to lord over us whenever she was feeling rather random.

"Moriya, La-Guidance, I know I'm far from experienced, but I've decided that I shall join you two tonight."

...

.....

"W-What?"

The very atmosphere in the room changed at her declaration. Guidance choking on her own spit while uttering her disbelief was the same thing I was about to ask as I stared at Shizu's resolute smile. The growing blush on her face was clearly a sign that she was completely letting her impulses make her decisions, but a part of me was kind of excited at the notion. I mean, what kind of straight man wouldn't be excited to have someone as beautiful and elegant as Shizu?

Well, granted, she was pretty much a slob hiding under heaps of noble training. Even now, her kimono was practically falling off, and I knew it wasn't on purpose.

Still, I had standards. I didn't want Shizu jumping into this without so much as a chance to back out from her potential mistake.

"Uhh... I don't know about that?" I awkwardly replied, hoping that she'd actually think twice. "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Of course!" Shizu declared with a brave smile on her face. "It's a way of service, correct?"

Fvck me! She called having sex a service!

"Shizu, you don't understand. This isn't something you just for anyone," I explained. "Having sex should be special, preferably with someone you love."

"So you and Guidance are in love then?"

[*cough! cough!*]

The round of coughing coming from beneath the bedsheets was more than adequate to describe the landmine that I just stepped on. I mean, I could see myself settling down with someone like Guidance. She was a good enough woman that I wouldn't have any complaints. Hell, I'd even consider it a win with how pretty she was.

Still, I struggled to find an answer to Shizu's loaded question.

"I, err... Yes?"

The movement from the bedsheets stilled. Somehow, that just told me that I had just given out the wrong answer.

"I see," Shizu curiously pondered. "Still, I've only heard of sex being offered as a service during court. Were they wrong then?"

Oh my god...

"S-Shizu, can you please just leave?" Guidance weakly begged, her head finally sticking out from underneath the sheets. "You don't have to give us any kind of service..."

"But I want to!" Shizu adamantly reasoned. "Please, let me atone somehow..."

I let out a sigh as Guidance and I shared a questioning look at one another. Shizu sounded so desperate to do this. And with what she had just gone through, should we at least humor her at least? Wait... You've got to be kidding me...

"Guidance, you're drooling," I disappointingly pointed out, seeing my maybe-girlfriend's eyes looking at me as if she was begging for me to say yes. There was something else in those eyes, but I didn't want to entertain the thought right now. "Surely you're not going to endorse this."

"W-Why not?" Guidance asked, all shame seemingly leaving her body as she excitedly panted. "Clearly, she's not taking no for an answer."

I shook my head at the utter ridiculousness of the situation. Was I the only sane person on this [Rig] anymore?

"Why are you even hiding under those sheets if you'll be this shameless anyway?" I pointed out with a sigh. And here I thought I was doing the right thing for her own decency... "Fine then. You can stay."

"Yay~"

I promptly placed my palm on my forehead. Shizu just had to sound like a kid that actually got her way. I can't believe I just did this....

...

...

"So, how are we gonna start? Should I get rid of my clothes now?"

Shizu's question pierced through the awkward silence as we all just stared at each other like idiots. Guidance was still on my bed, while the princess was practically ready to tear off her clothes from where she stood.

"I-I suppose we should continue where we left off, Moriya," Guidance weakly uttered, her own excitement starting to permeate the room as she made some space on the bed. "Shizu can join once she's ready."

I blinked at the way Guidance looked right now. She was really considering continuing to ride me with someone else watching us? "Are you sure that's fine?"

"I know Shizu here doesn't know anything about sex," Guidance pointed out, making the princess blush harder by the sidelines. "We'll have to show her how it's done. And maybe do a bit more after that."
