It’s raining softly.
The young lady, smitten with love, lets out a sigh, thinking she’s missed another chance.
She had thought she’d grown into a mature adult, but she couldn’t help but realize she was still in the middle of her transition from childhood.
“Sigh… I wish I could see him.”
Though she knows she should hold back, her heart races.
Her boyfriend is a soldier, stationed at a remote outpost an hour’s walk from town. It’s only natural they can’t meet often.
And with the weather worsening, she’d have to walk that hour-long path through the rain. The thought of catching a cold makes it clear it’s best not to come.
Still…
“…I wish I could see him once a week.”
She thinks to herself that even just one weekly rendezvous would be enough.
It’s as if she’s a child eagerly waiting for a picnic only to have the sky betray her. She knows it’s childish of her to feel this way, but she can’t help it—she feels deflated at the thought of not seeing him for another week.
“Why do you look so gloomy, Sylvie? Want a drink?”
The barkeep taps on a keg with a wooden mallet and offers her a bottle.
“No thanks. It’s still daytime.”
“Aha, I see. Well, it’s no surprise you’re not in the mood at just 19.”
“Whether it’s 30 or 40, even on your day off, drinking during the day is no good. It’s not something respectable people do.”
“You’re so serious. As expected of Miss MacLean’s only daughter.”
“It’s got nothing to do with my mom.”
Her mother is a teacher at the elementary academy, and her father is a government official. While she can’t deny that their family is all about discipline, Sylvia still believes alcohol should be reserved for evenings, after everything else is done.
Incidentally, in Celesta, drinking is allowed starting at 17, so age-wise, there’s no issue.
“Sigh…”
She looks up at the dark sky through the open door and lets out another sigh.
Staring at the street corner where Arnie, her beloved ogre boyfriend, usually stands, she feels lonely. Sylvie slumps over her lunch of gratin and continues eating in silence.
Sylvia MacLean (human female, 19 years old, 152 cm tall) and Arnie Boyd (ogre male, 18 years old, 277 cm tall) have been dating for three months.
Between the two of them, an unspoken rule has developed for their meet-ups.
On Sundays around noon, they gather in front of the bar frequented by Arnie’s Crossbow Corps unit if things work out.
Then they either go to the stadium or have a picnic in the mountains, spending time together.
Of course, it would be better if they could stay in touch more frequently, but Arnie’s unit barracks are far away. Being part of the military makes it hard for him to visit, and even though letters are an option, paper is still expensive and unsuitable for frequent use.
Arnie might want to come see her, but Sylvia works during the week. And with strict curfews at home and both parents being strict, she hasn’t been able to introduce Arnie yet. It’s impossible for them to meet.
So, as usual, they meet up, and if things go well, they go on their usual date.
Since starting to date, their affection has grown stronger, and Sylvia, who wishes they could be together all the time, finds this arrangement frustrating. Still, she holds back because she doesn’t want Arnie to feel burdened if she takes the initiative. After all, she’s the older one in the relationship.
“Sigh…”
She looks up at the dark sky through the open door and lets out another sigh.
Staring at the street corner where Arnie usually stands, she feels lonely. Sylvie slumps over her lunch of gratin and continues eating in silence.

Sylvia was a bit flustered.
She hadn’t told her parents, but Sylvia hadn’t intended to hide her relationship with Arnie.
Especially since this bar was directly across from their meeting spot—she couldn’t imagine the landlady not noticing.
[Landlady]: ”…Well, but?”
[Landlady]: “Oh my. Oh my, oh my.”
The landlady gave Sylvia a straight face before breaking into a sly, vulgar grin.
[Landlady]: “So you finally got yourself a boyfriend? That’s quite the scoop. Why didn’t you tell me?”
Sylvia: “Uh… what do you mean by ‘finally’?”
[Landlady]: “Well, you know.”
The landlady smirked and poked her plump elbow playfully. Of course, her elbow couldn’t reach Sylvia across the counter.
[Landlady]: “You’re that famous beauty, Sylvia, who’s turned down so many men. The iron wall of solitude, the pure and innocent high-schooler from the neighborhood.”
Sylvia: ”…That’s not true. I mean, it’s true that a few guys had been persistent when I was in elementary school, but…”
[Landlady]: “But you just kept turning them down, right? You didn’t feel like they were good enough for you. They didn’t have the strength to protect you, or the kindness to wrap you up in their arms, or the pureness to make you want to be with them. And most of all, they didn’t have that calm, peaceful energy that could keep you company for hours on end.”
[Landlady]: “In that sense, your standards were high, and Arnie was a rare find.”
Sylvia: “But I never thought of myself as someone who’s out of reach. There were plenty of guys who just seemed to hit on anyone they saw. I always thought of myself as just a normal girl who avoids romance.”
[Landlady]: “Maybe you’re surprised that everyone else was so casual about it? Back then, getting a boyfriend was like going to war. No prince was coming to save you from afar, and if there was an opportunity to find one nearby, you couldn’t afford to be picky, right?”
Sylvia: ”…I see. It’s normal, huh?”
Sylvia: “Well, he did come for me. He might not have been a prince, but at least to me, he was the ideal boy.”
Thinking about it that way, Sylvia felt oddly lucky. Feeling so happy, she couldn’t help but smile.
Seeing Sylvia suddenly grin, the landlady gave her a strange look.
[Landlady]: “Oh my, the crow who cried is already laughing again.”
Sylvia: ”…Yeah. I think I might actually be pretty happy.”
[Landlady]: “Well, whatever. If you feel like it, tell me about it sometime, Sylvia. About your… boyfriend.”
Sylvia: “Yeah… I think he’s kind of noticeable, though.”
[Landlady]: “Is he? The guy I see around here all the time… hmm… is it [Anzers]?”
Sylvia: ”…Who’s that?”
[Landlady]: “There’s this really handsome soldier. He’s quite something.”
Sylvia: “Nope. Hehe♪”
No matter how handsome or mature he was, Sylvia was certain no one could compare to Arnie.
Once she’d fallen for him, he’d become her everything. She genuinely thought that way.
Feeling good, Sylvia stood up to leave the bar.
A smile on a beautiful face draws far more attention than a frown. Before she realized it, half of the men in the bar were staring at Sylvia. It was only natural for the guys who’d been drinking their sorrows away in the rain to harbor a little bit of lust toward a lone girl.
[User Input]
As I reached out to Andy, my head was grabbed by an even larger finger than the one that had earlier held the ogre. The head was twisted around, and just like turning a screw, it was flipped 180 degrees. There stood the massive face of a bull. “Y-Yikes!” I couldn’t help but flinch. Facing off against two ogres bare-handed was far too terrifying.
Andy, Arnie, and Kelly came to the bar in the rain, all in high spirits.
Even for Andy and Kelly, who wanted to drink on their day off, it was the same. At first, they had tried to dump the task of counting weapons on Arnie and sneak out together, but when Arnie looked like he was about to cry and said, “I was actually planning to meet Sylvia-san today, she might still be waiting,” they had no choice but to finish quickly.
“Harassing guys with girlfriends is just how we do things here.”
“Show a little maturity for once, Smysen. We can bully Boyd later.”
“That’s true.”
”…Uh, am I going to get bullied?”
[Of course.]
Despite that, Andy and Kelly couldn’t bring themselves to do something as low-down as “letting Arnie stand her up in the rain.” They were soft at heart, after all.
The three of them marched into the bar singing a military song in the rain, then suddenly found Sylvia in a dire situation when they opened the door.
Andy and Kelly, who seemed more angry than usual about Sylvia being left with Arnie, had clearly seen past her appearance.
[They] sang their song, drank their drinks, and were about to leave when they suddenly realized they were in deep trouble.
It wasn’t just that Sylvia’s boyfriend was an ogre—Andy and Kelly were genuinely furious.
[To think this would happen to my beloved Arnie.] They were far more upset than they let on.
[Hey, drunkard. There are three things I can’t stand in this world: low-ceilinged shops, pickles, and anyone who makes their subordinates suffer.]
Kelly raised his hand high and lectured the drunkard. When an ogre over 3 meters tall raises its arm, it’s practically reaching 5 meters. Even in a bar with a two-story open ceiling, he was lifted so high that even the most inebriated would sober up.
[W-Wait, stop this, you brute! Do you really think the military police won’t come for this?]
He shouted and thrashed about. Kelly glanced at Andy and shrugged, then laughed.
[For someone who tried to assault a woman, you’ve got some nerve.]
[Exactly. …Keep that in mind, human scum. In Celesta, ogres can become both military police and elite soldiers. Arnie here might even become an Ace Night someday. In this place, idiots are more despised than even half-elves or ogres.]
With his head still held tightly, Kelly hurled the man away.
The drunkard was sent flying through the wooden window shutters. Kelly immediately struck a muscle-popping pose.
Overwhelmed by the sheer force, the entire bar couldn’t help but clap.
[You piece of trash… Hey, Isaac, let’s break this sword.]
[Don’t break it. The drinks are on you, and Sylvia-san too.]
[Well, at least half of it would be covered. …Alright, let’s drink!]
[Let’s!]
Andy and Kelly got carried away and clung to the counter, but they were promptly scolded by Sylvia’s wife. Even though they’d broken the window, they were still just dumb kids, she thought, but as soon as Arnie and the others returned, her tone softened a little.
“I’m sorry, Sylvie-chan. I’ll make sure to hire a bodyguard from now on, too.”
[Yes…]
Sylvia clung to Arnie’s arm, her face bright red as she fell in love with him all over again.
Finally, even Sylvia’s wife, who was usually clueless and tactless, realized who Arnie’s “boyfriend” really was. It had been hard to imagine that such a beautiful woman would have an ogre for a boyfriend.
”…More importantly, you there, young ogre boy, you’re soaked to the bone. You’ll catch a cold.”
[Ah, no, I’m fine…]
“Don’t hold back. The third room upstairs is empty today, so go dry yourself off. There’s a towel in the closet.”
[Transcript]
Sylvia: “Ha, haa…” Sylvia: “Sylvie-chan, let me help you.” [Irina]: “Huh…?” This was Sylvie’s way of showing her affection in the best way she knew. Despite her age, she gave a quick wink.
The second floor of the tavern was half open to the air and half used as an inn.
Andy and other soldiers who loved drinking but couldn’t hold their liquor often lay sprawled there, though it was also used for more unsavory purposes like bringing in women.
In one of the simple rooms under such circumstances, Arnie was being stripped and diligently dried off by Sylvie.
Sylvia: ”…Arnie-kun, you really are big, aren’t you?”
Arnie: “Y-Yeah, I’m an Ogre.”
Sylvia: “Mhm. You’re so reliable.”
Arnie: “I’m an Ogre.”
Sylvia: ”…Mhm. Including the fact that you’re an Ogre, I love you, Arnie-kun.”
Arnie turned bright red, as he always did when faced with Sylvie’s straightforward affection.
Smiling at Arnie, Sylvie confessed without hiding or embellishing that she had fallen for him all over again.
Sylvia: “You really saved me again, huh?”
Arnie: “I-I just stepped in a little.”
Sylvia: “But I was so happy. You’re always there for me when I’m in danger. It makes my heart flutter.”
Arnie: “Haha… I’ve been leaving everything to Isaac and Smyth, though.”
Sylvia: “Both of them were mad about you, Arnie-kun.”
Arnie: ”…Yes. I feel like I’m not alone now. I’m really glad I joined this squad.”
Sylvie stood on his neck, which was as big as a person’s torso, and hugged him like she was hanging onto him.
Sylvia: ”…I’m so glad you came. I’m so glad I got to meet you…”
Arnie: “Sylvia… san?”
Sylvia: ”…I was scared. When I was really scared, Arnie-kun saves me. I really, really love you… I thought, I’m so happy…!”
Arnie: ”…I’m happy too.”
Sylvia: “Mhm… Say you love me.”
Arnie: “I love you, Sylvie-san.”
Sylvia: “Say it properly.”
Arnie: “I love you, Sylvie-san.”
Arnie: “I love you.”
Sylvie shuddered.
She was told to love her ahead of time. By this ideal man. Just that alone made her feel like the greatest joy as a woman, and her core burned, her body grew wet, and she trembled. Annie found Sylvia so adorable that he gently hugged her. Even now, they embraced each other, wrapped in love that grew like a snowball. It was a time of bliss.
”…Mmm.”
After a while, Sylvia pulled away.
And at that moment, they both noticed the seam on her sleeve was slightly torn.
“Ah…”
“It must’ve happened when you were tugging it earlier.”
”…Maybe so.”
Annie pondered what to do. In fact, Annie, despite appearances, could sew. He thought about offering to fix it so she could go home without anyone seeing, but before he could suggest it, Sylvia suddenly nodded and began taking off her clothes.
“What…? S-Sylvia-san, if you’re going to take them off, I should leave…”
“No!”
Sylvia stopped Annie from standing up.
Annie obediently sat back down with his eyes closed, and in front of him, Sylvia, now in her underwear, climbed onto his lap and pried open his eyelids with both hands.
“N-Wow, uh, but!”
“Annie-kun, listen to me. Look at me.”
”…?”
Terrified, Annie turned to look at Sylvia.
Her beautiful, defenseless underwear made him blush more than ever, and he averted his gaze, his eyes darting around.
”…Yes.”
”…Hey, Annie-kun. …I thought… I could just let you have me today.”
”?”
“I thought it’d be okay if I became yours alone. …No, that’s not it. It’s not okay—it’s that I want to become yours alone. I want you to love me more than anything.”
”…Sylvia-san.”
“Sylvia-kun, don’t you like me? Can’t you do this kind of thing with me?”
”…But… I’m an Ogre…”
“It’s fine. I’m human too.”
”…No, that’s not what I mean…”
“I know. I understand that I’m from a different race than you. I know it might not be attractive to you guys. But I still like you. I want you to love me.”
“That’s not true! From my perspective, Sylvia-san is really… beautiful… but I just thought… I’d be a burden in your life…”
“Ugh!”
Sylvia grew frustrated.
Sylvia understood. It was clear from everything but his words that Arnie loved her.
However, Arnie was too kind, too considerate, and he believed he couldn’t possibly dirty Sylvia.
Then.
[Arnie-kun, I’m sorry!]
[Wha—what!?>
She pulled down Arnie’s underwear, exposing his cock inside.
With a pyoko, a cock that seemed far too small compared to Arnie’s massive frame popped out.
[Wah…!]
[Fufu~. …I mean it, you know.]
With a slightly mischievous smile at the flustered Arnie, Sylvia began rubbing his cock with both hands.
It wasn’t the first time she’d seen Arnie’s cock. Months ago, when he had suffered serious injuries from a beating, she had forcefully helped him urinate out of a sense of responsibility.
So, she could face him without too much embarrassment. Still, it was the first time she was touching his genitals in a sexual way, and it wasn’t going as smoothly as she’d hoped.
[Hmm… l-let’s see…]
[Sylvia-san…]
[I-I’m sorry, I’m not good at this… I’ve never done this before… but I mean it…!]
Overwhelmed with emotion, Sylvia pressed her lips to Arnie’s cock.
She knew such a technique existed, but since her knowledge was only from what she’d learned by rubbing it with her hands, she was at a loss when it came to actually using her mouth.
Looking up, Arnie was making a troubled face. It wasn’t about whether it felt good or not—he just didn’t know how to react to Sylvia’s actions.
[So… you get it? I really love you, Arnie-kun. I can keep licking your cock like this, lots and lots of times. But…]
[But?]
[It’s okay if I tear… Just do it. If you love me, then…]
From the bottom of her heart, Sylvia was driven by this desperate longing.
Even if it meant losing her ability to stand, she didn’t care. As long as she could truly connect with Arnie, it would be fine. She wanted to prove that as a woman, she could fully intermingle with the male part of him. And she wanted to connect with him even deeper.
Her growing affection for Arnie was out of control, and her desire to share their love was reaching near panic levels.
[Arni… Sylvia-san…]
[…………]
And then.
[Really, I’m going to do it, okay? I am a man, you know?]
Under Sylvia’s relentless pressure, even Arnie began to loosen the reins of his rationality. “Yeah.” “Even though I look this way, I’m really into women, you know? If we’re allowed, I might do something amazing with you every time we go on a date…” Overwhelmed by that desire, Sylvia trembled. The fear of not being able to express her love and being rejected shifted to tears of pure joy. ”…Something amazing. Make me experience something amazing every week♪” ”…Ugh, I don’t know anymore.” “I… I don’t either♪” She stripped off her underwear, discarding all her clothes. There was nothing left to hide. Both heart and body were laid bare before the other. Sylvia spread her arms wide, accepting Arnie’s embrace.
“That’s it… there…”
“It’s wet…”
“Yeah… I’ve been wet for you, Arnie-kun… I’ve been soaking myself, ready to welcome your cock…?”
”…Hah… hah… ngh…!”
“Sh-Sylvia-san!!”
Sylvia’s hips and legs were grasped by both hands, her legs spread wide as she was pressed tightly against Arnie’s waist.
Though he was careful, the ogre’s massive strength didn’t allow for a slow penetration. Her hymen was torn open in an instant.
“Nngh…!!”
”…Hah… hah… This is bad… it’s so hot… it feels so good…”
”…Yeah, I can feel you inside me… Arnie-kun…”
Arnie’s cock was small compared to his massive body. It was certainly bigger than average for a human, but it wasn’t something an ogre could boast about.
However, this worked in their favor. Even with Arnie’s full thrusts, Sylvia wouldn’t be damaged.
He could move her dynamically, all the way to the base.
And from Arnie’s perspective, Sylvia was small and light, shaking under his intense movements. Both of them were lost in the moment, completely overwhelmed by the pleasure of their first time together.
“Ah, ah, ah… ah, ah… hii, i-iaah…!!”
Neither of them could think straight after being joined.
They were swept up in the experience, simply moving to make Arnie climax over and over.
”…Hah, ah… nngh, ah… ahh♪”
Even so, Sylvia wore a happy expression.
As a woman, she was undoubtedly satisfying Arnie’s ideal man, and that made her incredibly happy.
“Uwaa, ah, ah… uwaah!!”
Arnie was consumed. He could only think about climaxing.
And then, he slammed Sylvia’s hips against his own.
“Thrust the tip into her womb.” “Aaaaaahhh!!” “Hah, ahhh… ah, ah… ahhh, nnngh♪” He ejaculated with a force that seemed to burst forth.
”…I really did it…♪”
“I-I’m sorry…”
”…Don’t apologize, you’ll just make me angry.”
”…S-sorry…”
“Hey!”
He slapped both of Anzy’s cheeks with a sharp pat.
”…Mmm.”
Then he kissed her to silence her.
“I’m… Anzy-kun’s girlfriend, you know?”
“Yes.”
“A girlfriend is allowed to do naughty things, right?”
”…If you say that, I’ll start thinking it’s okay to do them.”
“But you have to think about where we’re doing it.”
”…Yes.”
“And you have to be gentle.”
“Yes.”
“And you have to go hard.”
”…That’s hard…”
“It’s not hard. If you leave it up to me, you’ll only be gentle with her.”
”…Is that so?”
“Yeah♪”
“Hey, Smysom.” “What is it, Isaac?” ”…Hey, do you think they’re doing it?” ”…I vote for them just chatting sweetly together instead of anything naughty.” “I vote for them having a feast of carnal pleasure.” ※Correct answer: Both. “It’s frustrating either way, damn it.” ”…Let’s bully him when we get back.” “Let’s bully him.” The wife then smacked both of them with a tray.
[You soldiers, is your job to interfere with the happiness of your comrades?] [N-No! This is a legitimate right!] [Damn it! The happy ones should just accept it and make everyone around them a little happier too!] [Was I an idiot for feeling a little flutter at your achievements?] [Even if you, old lady, were to feel that way.] [Right?] ”…Pay up. Now, the full amount.” [Seriously, I’m sorry.] It was about a month before Selen arrived.
