Hot Spring with an Impossible Challenge
(Dreamscape)
Kazuki is running on all four through a dark forest in the middle of the night with the full moon with a smile on his face as he is having lots of fun running, then he jumps on one tree and start jumping from one branch to another for a while until he enters a wide-open area.
"This is fun!" Kazuki laughed joyfully.
Kazuki kept on running to the center as he wanted to keep on running though he stops at the spot when he saw a large wolf, about two or three times bigger than an average wolf standing and looking at the young wolf boy.
"Huh, hello, are here for some running too?" Kazuki asked.
The wolf just stood there silent for a few seconds or so and then walk up to Kazuki who was a little scared at the time, but he can sense this wolf means no harm and pet its head. They look up at the full moon as it shines brightly, then the light grew brighter and brighter until it consumes everything which Kazuki quickly cover his eyes to not be blinded and heard a loud howl from the same wolf.
(Dreamscape End)
Kazuki wakes up from the dream he had and let out a little yawn stretching his arms a bit which got Kuriko's attention as she was listening to some music on Magic-EMP player.
"Oh, enjoyed your nap?" Kuriko asked.
"Yeah, it was good and feel like I could go run right now." Kazuki answered.
"Well, maybe you can, to get to the hot spring faster once we get off the train." Kuriko suggested with a giggle.
"I still don't get how is it that a hot spring can help increase my spell count?" Kazuki confused as he looks at the pamphlet of the hot spring that going on the train they are currently riding on.
"Trust me, Kazuki. My family's web of information gathering is top-notch and are never wrong, so it's a high grantee that this hot spring will help you." Kuriko pointed out.
"When you put it like that then I can't complain about that, your family is really amazing, Kuriko." Kazuki complimented.
"Well, what'd you expect from the amazing Kazetsubaki family." Kuriko asked sarcastically.
"Hey Kuriko, are we really just going to the hot spring by ourselves?" Kazuki asked.
"Of course, who else did you expect to come?" Kuriko asked back.
"Well, there's Yuna and Rin, and maybe Elizabeth though I'm not sure if ghost can feel hot springs." Kazuki listed.
"I don't know about Rin coming to a hot spring, Elizabeth could have fun there though I'm not if they allow ghost in, but I'm afraid Yuna couldn't come because she has some homework to do and busy with other things even though she's supposed to be your mate." Kuriko explained.
At least that's what she wants Kazuki to believe when in truth Yuna really did wanted to come but Kuriko made a deal that the trip would only just be her and Kazuki while Yuna stays behind, Yuna was against this but agreed to it when Kuriko reminded her that Kazuki could use up his spell counts and turn to ash.
"Oh, then I think it would be best to have Yuna keep up with her studies and maybe we can go somewhere together next time." Kazuki planned.
"Sure, you can do that." Kuriko shrugged, then she got surprised when Kazuki got her hand into his.
"I wouldn't mind hanging out with you on a trip like this." Kazuki smiled causing the rich blonde girl to blush.
"W-Well, you better be grateful of the troubling I'm going through just to get your genes." Kuriko said looking away.
"(I wonder what Yuna is doing right now?)" Kazuki thought asked.
(With Yuna)
Yuna is doing studying on some of the history books trying to get her mind off about Kazuki and Kuriko going to the hot spring together, but her heart and mind wouldn't allow as she kept having fantasies about the two doing some indecent things along in a room.
"THAT CAN'T BE?!" Yuna screamed as she threw a book up in the air and accidentally disintegrated.
"Are you alright with the present situation?" Rin asked appearing in Yuna's room.
"Rin?" Yuna wondered why is the sword-fighting girl here in her room.
"Forgive my bad manners though I called you many times, there was no answer. So, I just came in." Rin said as Yuna doesn't mind as she needs a little distraction.
"Alright, I will ask once more: are you comfortable having Shikimori alone with Kuriko?" Rin asked again.
"Well, I don't like it, I don't but…" Yuna hesitated to answer properly, then Rin place her hand on hers.
"I'm aware that Kuriko has made a deal with you, you know. You would choose increasing his spell count into the security of Shikimori over your own feelings, it must have been difficult for you." Rin figured out as she can easily tell how much Kazuki means to Yuna.
"Need I remind you that Kazuki have marked you as his mate meaning it is your duty to be by his side at all times, and Kuriko would force you to stay back. I cannot go along with that, let us follow them." Rin suggested.
"But I don't even know the location of the hot spring, so what can we do?" Yuna asked.
"Do not be concern about that, we have an ally." Rin said.
This confuses Yuna until Elizabeth appears going through a wall with a guidebook of the hot spring.
"I know mother want to spend some alone time with father, I couldn't help but wanted to go to the hot spring too!" Elizabeth excited.
Yuna place her hand on her right breast where the werewolf mark and now her eyes are serious of going to the hot spring to make sure Kuriko is really helping Kazuki with her spell count.
(With Kazuki and Kuriko)
Within the deep forest close to the foot of a mountain, Kazuki is running through woods while carrying Kuriko on his back and some of their luggage as this does not bother him by the weights with his super strength and using his superspeed can help save some time. Kuriko in the meanwhile is reading the map on the hot spring guidebook carefully to make sure they are going the right way.
"Okay, stop here." Kuriko ordered.
Kazuki quickly stop sliding his feet on the ground a little and Kuriko got off looking around the area they are in.
"Odd, according to the map, the hot spring should be right here." Kuriko said.
"Man, I've been running for almost an hour and I'm not even tired. Having greater stamina is awesome!" Kazuki amazed of his werewolf powers.
"Although, I'm surprise there's even a hot spring in such a remote place." Kazuki started doubt this a bit.
"Hold on, I think I see something." Kuriko pointed at.
The two can stumble upon the hot sprint resort as they are surprised to see the place being big and almost grand-like, they enter the place wondering if there is really anyone working here.
"Howdy-do there, folks." A woman greeted scaring the two as they look up seeing the woman on top of a tall wooden stand.
"Do ya'll have a reservation?" The woman asked though Kazuki and Kuriko are too shocked to answer.
"Well then, welcome, settle down, and sorry for being so high above you like this. I'm Romeco, Hostess of this resort." Romeco introduced herself with a bow.
"Huh, hello. So, is there really a hot spring where you can increase the number of times you can use magic?" Kazuki asked.
"This looks more like a plain old public bath." Kuriko said having a hard time believing this is the place.
"Don't judge a hot spring by its looks, but by its hostility. Okie-dokie, I'll hope on down and escort you to your room." Romeco went came as her body stretched like she is rubber.
"Okay, this way." Romeco gestured them to follow her.
Kazuki and Kuriko follow the hostess to their room since there's no point in complaining about this anymore.
"This is the horse room, what do you all think?" Romeco asked as Kuriko and Kazuki look around the room.
"This place seems cozy." Kazuki commented.
"Yeah, it's pretty nice in here. The entrance looks like a public bath, but the room is like a real resort." Kuriko impressed.
"And where is my room?" Kazuki asked.
"Oh, in the reservation only one room was requested." Romeco answered.
"Just one!" Kazuki shocked as his wolf tail and ears stood up from the reaction.
"One room will be fine." Kuriko grinned and open the slide door to the space with the futon, big enough for two and a disco ball.
Kazuki soon realizes what Kuriko is up to besides what they originally came here for and knew he fell right into her trap.
"Come over here, Kazuki." Kuriko gestured sexually.
"Well then, make ya'll selves at home." Romeco bowed and leave the "couple" be.
"W-Wait, wait a minute!" Kazuki begged, but the woman is already gone.
"Kazuki." Kuriko approached Kazuki as she opens up her shirt, revealing her sexy bra.
Kazuki tries to escape only for his body to slam onto the wall and Kuriko slams her hand next to his head then grab his cheeks to make him look at her in the eyes.
"If that room isn't to your liking, then we can just do it right here instead." Kuriko said sexually.
"Th-This isn't right, Kuriko." Kazuki pointed out while his face is faintly turning red, and his tail is wagging like crazy.
"And why isn't it? You understand that I want your genes, don't you, Kazuki?" Kuriko reminded him of her goal by her family.
Kazuki's face became a little redder and his eyes wanders down getting a good view of her cleavage looking bigger as she press her breasts against his chest, then Kuriko start rubbing her knee against his crouch causing him to moan a little. He wants to push her away and remind her of the task they came here for, to increase his spell count up, but the inner instinct of the werewolf took control of his body and push Kuriko down on the floor and grab her right breast.
"Oh, Kazuki, you are such a beast. Kuriko commented and surprise.
Kazuki just growls in response and smack his lips right onto hers making a heated kissing session that Kuriko immediately kiss him back and wrap her arms around him, she continues rubbing her knee on his crouch while his left hand is groping her right breast. It was then Kuriko started to feel something different about this kiss, it was something she wasn't expecting the feeling of fireworks going off in her soul and being submitted to Kazuki of all people. It is almost like her body is saying that it wants the Werewolf King more than just his genes, and her heart is pounding harder than ever before.
"K-Kazuki…" Kuriko moaned within the kiss.
Kazuki separate himself from Kuriko's lips and rip her shirt open along with the bra exposing her large boobs in front of him.
"Kazuki…" Kuriko said softly.
Then Kazuki quickly stop himself from advancing any further when he came back to his sentence and realize what he just did as he looks at the ripped pieces of Kuriko's upper part clothing in his hands.
"(Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck! What have I done?!)" Kazuki thought freaked out.
"What's wrong, Kazuki? Don't you want to continue our little love session?" Kuriko asked lustfully and lick her lips.
Kazuki gasp again with his face turning redder than ever before, he quickly got off of Kuriko to close the door to the futon room and sit on the table.
"K-Kuriko, I thought we… we came here to increase my spell count, isn't that's why we came here in the first place?" Kazuki asked hoping to change the subject and pretend what just happened didn't happen.
"Yes, of course. That's true, but we were just getting to the good part." Kuriko disappointed that Kazuki stop himself.
"Let's do that!" Kazuki pointed at the bathrobes in the baskets.
"I-It's logically to take a bath first. After all, we did come all this way from a long trip, so let's take a bath." Kazuki suggested. Also, in hoping to calm himself down in a separate bath from Kuriko.
"Well, that might be nice too. The sun has just set, and I believe this will be a wonderful time to relax in a warm bath." Kuriko agreed to the idea.
"(Thank god, she agreed to it!)" Kazuki thought sighed in relief.
As Kuriko is about to grab her own bathrobe, she notices something on her right breast and saw something that made her smile.
"Oh Kazuki, it would you did something more than kissing me like an animal." Kuriko giggled.
"Wh-What are you t-talking about?" Kazuki asked feeling a bit scared.
"Why don't you take a look for yourself and see that you did the same thing to me like what you did to Yuna." Kuriko said.
"Huh, what I did to Yuna?" Kazuki confused of what she meant until he turns around and gasp again.
The reason for this reaction is because Kuriko now has the Werewolf King mate mark on her right breasts making her Kazuki's second beloved mate like how Yuna became his first mate.
"No way, I did… I did really just mark you?" Kazuki asked.
"The proof is right here in front of your eyes, or do you need a closer inspection?" Kuriko teasted leaning closer to Kazuki.
"Oh man, I hope Yuna won't be mad at this." Kazuki gulped.
(With Yuna, Rin, and Elizabeth)
Yuna is looking out the window with a very worry expression on her face as she is riding the train to the hot spring resort with Rin and Elizabeth, she also prays that Kuriko better not have done something to him or else she is going to get a magic fist to the face and this trip is to help Kazuki with his spell count.
"Mother Yuna." Elizabeth pulled on Yuna's uniform getting her attention.
"Yes, what is it, Elizabeth?" Yuna asked.
"You're not going to hurt Mother, are you?" Elizabeth asked with a worry expression.
"Oh no, we're just going to have a form talk about letting us tag along the next time they go somewhere." Yuna assured.
"Okay, I can already hear the hot spring calling out to me." Elizabeth excited looking out the window, and through it.
"Calm yourself, Elizabeth. We will be arriving at the station soon." Rin said.
"Attention passengers, we are now arriving at the next station." The train conductor announced.
"Yay! We're here, Mother Rin! Just like you said!" Elizabeth hugged Rin making her blush a bit.
"See child, those who wait will be rewarded." Rin smiled petting the ghost girl's head.
"Okay, now let's go find them!" Yuna declared.
(With Kazuki and Kuriko)
"Wait, this is… a co-ed bath!" Kazuki gasped as he reads the sign of the outside hot spring bath.
"Of course, it is. The water contains magical power, if it were to be divided then that power would be reduce. Understand?" Kuriko explained.
"Yeah, but I…" Kazuki hesitated about this.
"Come on, let's go." Kuriko grabbed Kazuki's hand and drag him into the bath.
Once inside, they saw just now beautiful the bath water is with the sparkling shines almost like there are stars in the water.
"This type of resort would have to be hidden away." Kuriko realized that.
"So, do you all like it then?" Romeco asked as she is cleaning herself up in the bath, naked and all.
"You can increase your spell count just by getting into this hot spring, isn't that right?" Kuriko asked.
"Yes, of course, you can. Except…" Romeco paused.
"Except what?" Kuriko raised an eyebrow.
"There is one condition. In order to increase your spell count by one, you have to keep your head underwater for 20,000 hours." Romeco revealed shocking the two magic students.
"Underwater for 20,000 hours?!" Kazuki yelled and Kuriko took out her calculator from her breasts to see how many days is 20,000 hours.
"2 years, 103 days, and 8 hours." Kuriko said.
"I think I'd be long dead by then." Kazuki stated.
"Well, it's true there has only been four folks who done it successfully. Two of them were humans, one was a vampire, and the other was a werewolf." Romeco mentioned.
"You mean someone done it!" Kazuki surprised.
"Well, it's one of the most famous legends of this here resort." Romeco laughed.
"Kuriko, I think the information you got was lacking on this part." Kazuki exclaimed.
"Yes, would seem you're right." Kuriko crushed her calculator in anger.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
Kazuki and Kuriko arrived at a private hot spring resort in hoping to increase the young Werewolf King's spell count even by just one, but they found out the catch of how to do that and let's hope Kazuki can hold his breath in. Meanwhile, Yuna and the others are on their way in hoping to stop Kuriko's movements on him though the rich girl is now marked as his second mate, and they will soon find out about another way in the hot spring resort.
