I Paired Up With a Woman From an Adventurer Matchmaking App, She Had Perfect Compatibility, But the Worst Personality. When Our Erotic Compatibility Exceeded 200%, She Became the Most Obedient Team Member at Night. - Chapter 8

We walked straight back down the hallway of the Demon King’s castle that we had passed through only a moment ago.
At first, I walked briskly, but as my anxiety grew, I broke into a run.
Emerging from the castle’s open doors, I could hear a commotion outside. It seemed to be the Dragon Tamers who had transported us here.
When they spotted us leaving the castle, they rushed toward us eagerly.

“Hey! What’s going on?! You’re back way too soon for a completed subjugation! Did something unexpected happen?!”

“What happened?! What about the others?!”

“Something’s wrong outside, too! The sky was completely covered in dark clouds just moments ago, but now it’s perfectly clear!”

“This is impossible! What the hell happened?!”

“Hey, what happened to the Demon King?!”

“Sorry, I’m in a hurry. Let me through.”

“Ask the bearded guys who show up later for the details.”

“Huh? Hey! Where are you going?! Wait! Hey! Seriously, where are you going?!”

We brushed past the crowd clamoring for answers and left the Demon Lord’s Castle behind.
The clouds overhead dissipated, and the surroundings rapidly cleared.
Were the monsters equally bewildered by the sudden change in weather?
Those that should have been lurking nearby were now hiding in the shadows, refusing to emerge.
After a while, Cordelia and I discovered a small cave at the foot of a steep cliff.

“Hey, Cordelia, that place looks pretty good, don’t you think?”

“Yeah. It doesn’t seem like anyone would find us easily there.”

We exchanged glances, suppressed our eagerness, and dashed into the cave.
Inside, a slime-like monster clung to the wall, trying to hide. I casually swung my weapon and quickly dispatched it.

“Demon, get out of our way. We’re passing through.”

“Pi-pi-piiiiiii…(vanishes)”

…A question swirled in our minds.
Ever since we defeated the Demon King, we’d been driven by this question, wandering in search of secluded places.
My compatibility with Cordelia was 0.02%.
We didn’t know why, but that was the number staring back at us from the latest compatibility test.
Yet, despite that… despite the impossibly low 0.02% compatibility…
Just the two of us, with that 0.02% compatibility, had defeated the Demon King who ruled the darkness of this world. And we’d done it with overwhelming ease.
If that were true, then…
The number I’d seen on that dating app flashed in my mind:
Sexual compatibility: 0.00%.
Not even a fraction of a percent.
Leaving no room for even a sliver of hope.
Utter nothingness.
From the moment we saw that number, Cordelia and I had been too afraid to confirm our 0.00% compatibility, and we hadn’t had s3x.
…But.
If we could defeat the Demon King with a compatibility as low as 0.02%, then…
Even if our sexual compatibility was a hopeless 0.00%…
A flicker of hope began to simmer within us.

“Hah… hah… Cordelia. I don’t think I can hold back any longer.”

“Don’t worry, Kent. Me neither.”

We ventured into the cave, stopping just far enough in that the light from the entrance barely illuminated our faces.
Then, we dropped our weapons and embraced each other tightly.

“Ah… hah… hah… Cordelia…”

“Kent… Mmph… Kiss… Kiss…”

Locked in a fierce embrace, we kissed each other fluidly.
Ah.
Cordelia, whom I’d been yearning for all week.
When I embraced her, the floral scent from her blonde hair tickled my nose.
Despite her hard, rugged armor and adventurer’s clothes, simply holding her in my arms brought an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
I kissed her repeatedly, but that wasn’t enough. Finally, I greedily tangled my tongue with hers, devouring her in a ravenous kiss.
Ah.
This mind-numbing, overwhelming sense of fulfillment.
Just our lips touching created such an intense euphoria, as if all the joys of the world had been distilled into a concentrated bliss that consumed my entire being.
We were so completely satisfied by just a kiss.
Why had we been so terrified of that 0.00% compatibility score?
After a long, lingering kiss, we began to explore each other’s bodies.
Our long period of abstinence… the winter of our intimacy… was over. In this land overrun by monsters, we were ready to surrender both body and soul to the primal instincts of desire.
