Calculating the Erotic Desire Energy remaining in her body, Tia found that she could manage to subdue/woo at most one more target. But as for the carpet in front of her…
What did that mean?
Was it longing to be stepped on by her?
Erotic Desire Energy surged.
After a long silence, she lifted the hem of her skirt, slowly walked to the edge of the carpet, and simultaneously raised her right foot, with its high heel, slowly and expressionlessly.
Afterward, she stepped down with elegance and determination.
【An indescribable palpitation rushed through the entire body of the carpet. Beneath your high heel, it felt the reality of being alive, and at the same time, it proved its own value.】
Looking at the dialog box appearing in her vision, Tia lifted her skirt and withdrew her right leg.
【With its tender body suddenly feeling light, the excitement surging within the carpet’s heart receded like a tide, replaced by an inexplicable sense of loss and a craving buried deep within its soul.】
【It craved something, expected something…】
Tia lowered her eyes, her gaze seemingly piercing through the carpet to look directly at that humble yet passionate soul. Subsequently, she raised her foot again and stepped on the carpet.
However, unlike before, this time she stepped heavily onto the most magnificent embroidery in the center of the carpet, deliberately twisting the bottom of her heel tip, as if grinding something.
【The fracturing of a few fibers did not bring pain to the carpet; on the contrary, an intense sensation of happiness transmitted through its every corner like an electric current. Its pile stood up slightly, and it couldn’t help but want to scream! Want more!】
“Satisfied?”
Lifting her skirt, Tia stepped onto the carpet with both high heels.
Immediately following that, she began to tread down with continuous force, the light in the depths of her eyes becoming increasingly disdainful.
The expression with which she looked at the carpet was as if she were looking at trash.
I do not know how much time passed before a new dialog box appeared before her again.
【Accompanied by your ravaging, the consciousness of the carpet has completely melted. Unprecedented happiness has thoroughly submerged it. It has never felt such “sweet nothings” that struck directly at the soul, and this also made it see its own heart clearly.】
【It craves to become your exclusive masochistic toy. Especially your look of disgust, which birthed a strong sense of belonging and a palpitating feeling of being flattered. It wishes it could wear away all its own fibers on the spot to please you~】
【Favorability +100, Special CG Unlocked.】
“No need to show me your special CG right now.”
Stopping the carpet from speaking, Tia stepped off its tender body.
The disdain in the depths of her eyes not only did not diminish but instead became increasingly intense. And this, it seemed, made the carpet even more excited.
Hurriedly looking elsewhere, Tia reined in her gaze.
A masochistic carpet…
Erotic Desire Energy, when all is said and done, merely allows these objects to be controlled by her.
Anthropomorphism is just her method; it does not mean these objects have truly come to life, possessing life and self-awareness.
Thinking of it this way, the distorted psychology generated when she disciplined the carpet felt a little better.
Feeling the Erotic Desire Energy within her body, she found that although it was not enough to woo another target, emitting a faint aura of Erotic Desire was still possible.
Next, she only needed to lure Mephia onto this carpet. Once she was on the carpet…
…
Golden sunlight sprinkled down upon the corridor.
The moment they stepped onto the carpet, the special CG triggered.
The carpet merely gave a slight tremor, and Mephia, dressed in a white-and-gold long dress, fell towards the ground uncontrollably.
“Ya!” “Careful!”
At that moment, Tia, standing beside her, quickly caught her slender waist with swift eyes and fast hands.
In that moment, her light blue long hair draped down, and sunlight passed through the strands, reflecting dotted starlight on the carpet.
“Are you alright?”
Tia, holding Mephia, spoke first.
Her gaze was slightly lowered, her tone mixed with intense care and worry.
Furthermore, while speaking, she exerted a bit more strength.
As if she wanted to feel the heartbeat between them.
And inhaling the scent of cedar and old books emanating from her body, Mephia, hiding in the crook of her arm, stared at her face in a daze for a long time.
Finally, she bashfully lowered her head and whispered a soft “I’m fine.”
The two quickly separated.
Tia, learning that Mephia was alright, began to lead her forward again with a sweet smile.
The latter looked at her back bathed in the light, gradually becoming a bit infatuated.
The sunlight outside the window remained bright, but within the corridor, a sprout named Love blew into Mephia’s heart along with the wind, beginning to take root and germinate…
…
The imagination ended there, and Tia couldn’t help but hum softly.
Rescuing her in a heroic posture when she felt danger—this was one of the tropes where the rescued party was most likely to fall in love.
She was already intimately familiar with it.
Mephia, too, would not escape from her grasp!
Returning to the living room of the villa, Earl Harris, who had chatted with Mephia for a long time, checked the time.
Finally, reminded by the housekeeper, he apologized to Mephia and stood up from the sofa.
“Tia, accompany Lady Mephia to tour our villa. I have other matters to attend to, so I will be leaving first. Do not neglect her.”
“Yes.”
Bringing visitors who were visiting for the first time to tour the villa was something Earl Harris often did, so Tia was not surprised at all.
Coming to Mephia’s side, she gestured with her hand and invited her with perfect etiquette: “Lady Mephia, please come with me to the second floor.
The portraits of the various ancestors of the Harris family are all displayed in the corridor of the second floor.”
“Alright.”
Mephia did not refuse.
Back in the living room, she had already expressed intense interest in this villa, and this played right into Tia’s hands!
Reaching the second floor, before even stepping onto the carpet, thinking of what would happen next, Tia couldn’t help but laugh.
And this brilliant smile naturally caused Mephia to question: “Miss Tia, what are you laughing at?”
“Nothing, I am just naturally prone to laughter. After all, there is a rumor that girls who laugh often do not have bad luck, isn’t that so?”
“Is that so?”
Mephia was noncommittal.
Tia spoke no further.
She simply walked in front and stepped onto the carpet.
Mephia followed closely behind.
However, at that very moment— The carpet trembled, causing Mephia to unexpectedly lose her balance.
But Tia had long been mentally prepared, so she did not panic.
On the contrary, after controlling her own body, she hurriedly reached out towards Mephia, wanting to catch her waist to perform a beautiful “hero saves the beauty.”
However…
Mephia conveniently grabbed Tia’s extended arm and quickly stabilized her own form using it.
It was actually Tia who, because of Mephia’s leverage, lost her balance.
Unable to control her body, she fell backward, a few glints of panic flashing in her blue pupils.
“Careful!”
Riiiip—!
Accompanied by the sound of clothing tearing, Mephia, who had wanted to catch Tia’s waist, stumbled… and deeply pressed her down beneath her own body.
