Chapter 70: First Subjects

"I-Ikaris?" Ellie stammered flushed with shame as she hastily hid her breasts with one hand while pulling up the straps of her dress with the other. She was about to cry, wondering why this was only happening to her.

The boy blanked out, the erotic sight he had just witnessed still etched in his retina, but he quickly pulled himself together and looked away. His mouth dry, he cleared his throat with a hint of guilt.

Recognizing him, Malia came to her senses a little and muttered in a small, sleepy voice,

"What's going on?"

"I need my Stele." Ikaris replied plainly, pointing to the Stele nestled between her breasts.

Malia followed his gaze, and found that in panic she had dropped her "pillow", but it had remained snugly wedged in place. Feeling the boy's lingering gaze, she started to blush and instinctively raised her sword at him.
