Before Hiro began, he inspected Marissa's status. As he suspected, her stats were abysmal—she was level one with the lowest numbers Hiro had ever seen. It reminded him of how he had started in this world. Unlike him, Marissa had some aptitude for magic, but without proper education, her potential had been wasted. Her only redeeming quality seemed to be her leadership skills, though even that was mediocre. By comparing Cecile's sword mastery, which was at level 3, Hiro surmised that Marissa's leadership skills were barely sufficient to manage the village.

Hiro didn't care about her weak stats. His focus was on indulging in Marissa's body. Her loose clothing barely hid her curves, but Hiro couldn't help but notice how large her breasts were—far surpassing those of Cecile and Nana. He was eager to personally verify if her measurements were accurate.
"Ara? Do you need something, Hiro?" Marissa asked as she sensed Hiro shifting her panties. Despite her lower body being paralyzed, her skin remained soft and supple. Hiro branched his tentacle and slithered around both her legs, gripping them firmly. Another tentacle encircled her thin waist. He wanted to see if he could make Marissa walk.
Though paralyzed, Marissa still had functional legs, and Hiro thought he could serve as the muscle she lacked. To his surprise, it worked. Marissa stood, though unsteadily, forcing Hiro to extend a tentacle to the nearby table for support.
"Kya!" Marissa gasped, overwhelmed by the sudden sensation of standing. She was higher off the ground than usual, and the unexpected height scared her. Despite the silliness of the fear, Marissa chuckled at herself. Yet, the fact that she was standing shook her to her core.
"I stood up…" Marissa whispered, tears brimming in her eyes. A few minutes later, she asked Hiro to retract the tentacle that had been supporting her against the table. Tentatively, she balanced herself, and Hiro began guiding her legs, lifting each foot in turn, slowly making her walk toward the bed. It was awkward and slow, taking about twenty minutes to cover the short distance from her office to her bedroom, but Marissa was overjoyed.
"Thank you! I can finally walk! I won't have to trouble Clarissa and Maroon to carry my sedan chair anymore! I've always felt guilty asking them," Marissa exclaimed, hugging one of Hiro's tentacles wrapped around her waist. Hiro responded by encircling her ample chest with another tentacle and gently caressing her cheek.
Perverted thoughts filled Hiro's mind as he confirmed her breasts were indeed larger than Nana's or Cecile's. Marissa, however, remained blissfully unaware of his lust, thanking him profusely. Hiro, having given Marissa the gift of walking, now sought his compensation.
He began undressing her. With a tentacle, he lifted the hem of her dress over her head, while another worked on her buttons. Soon, Marissa was lying in her bed, completely exposed, resting on a cushion made from Hiro's tentacles. Dozens of them began caressing her, starting from her face and moving down to her breasts.
Though innocent and naive, Marissa wasn't entirely ignorant. She knew about sex, but her understanding was limited. She never imagined Hiro, a creature she'd seen as an ally, would desire her this way, especially since she was paralyzed. But the way Hiro touched her ignited a fire in her that she hadn't felt before. Embarrassment flooded her as conflicting feelings surfaced. Having been rejected by many men due to her disability, Marissa had developed low self-esteem. Though she knew she had a pretty face, her paralyzed legs had always made her feel undesirable. She never thought her first time would be with Hiro.
Marissa let Hiro do as he pleased, resigned to offering her body in return for what he'd given her. She had heard that a symbiote user's body was no longer their own once they bonded with a symbiote. They were required to share it. Taking a deep breath, she relaxed as Hiro explored her body.
"Nh❤… it's ticklish…" Marissa moaned softly. She squirmed slightly, but her large breasts jiggled enticingly with each movement. Hiro wrapped his tentacles around her chest, focusing on her sensitive breasts. This attention heightened her libido further. Due to her paralysis, her breasts and nipples were the only erogenous zones that reacted. Hiro, unaware of the extent of her paralysis, continued to play with her body, thinking he had discovered her weak spots.
As a tentacle, Hiro didn't have the limitations of a human. He branched out and began caressing her ass and clit, only to find that she had no sensation in those areas. Her paralysis had spread numbness to her lower body, leaving her genitals unresponsive. Though momentarily disappointed, Hiro didn't let it deter him.
"Ah❤… Mnn…" Marissa continued to moan as her body responded to the pleasure from her breasts. Hiro could tell she was on the verge of climaxing just from the stimulation there, which excited him. However, his ultimate goal was to take her virginity.
He carefully prepared a tentacle about an inch wide, smaller than the average size, and poised to enter her. Marissa wasn't close to climaxing yet, so Hiro stepped up his efforts. He stroked her back, sending shivers through her body. She lay on his tentacle bed, fully at his mercy as he created multiple feelers to caress her, raising goosebumps all over her skin.
When he reached her navel, Hiro could sense through their connection that she was sensitive there, so he focused on that area while continuing to brush against her breasts. Her arousal surged, and just as her excitement peaked, Hiro thrust inside, breaking her hymen. Marissa's body jerked in response, and she climaxed instantly.
"AH!❤" Marissa gasped as her body reacted, her bladder loosening involuntarily. Hiro was caught off guard, but realized his luck—Marissa could feel his tentacle when he thrust deep enough. Her paralysis only affected her lower body up to just below her pelvis. So, when Hiro's tentacle reached her cervix, she felt it, and the intense sensation made her squirt. There was no pain in her deflowering, only the blissful feeling of her cervix being stimulated. The overwhelming sensation caused her to climax.
"Hah❤... Amazing..." Marissa breathed out, basking in the afterglow as sweat covered her body from her very first orgasm. For the first time, Marissa felt what it was like to be a woman, to experience the pleasure Hiro could give her. He had given her so much—first, the miracle of walking, and now the joy of womanhood. Happiness and contentment washed over her as her breathing slowed, and she drifted into a peaceful sleep.
Hiro, satisfied with his work, moved on to Nana. Since breaking her the night before, Nana had been a mess of sensitivity. She would become giddy and even climax simply from her clothes brushing against her breasts. Hiro wanted to continue her training, but her sensitivity hadn't lessened.
When Nana returned to her bedroom, Hiro slithered out, causing her to shiver. Despite this, she obediently undressed and lay down on Hiro's fleshy bed, her breasts already perking up and her crotch wet with anticipation. Though Hiro hadn't touched her yet, her body was already prepared.
For this session, Hiro decided not to explore her body further. Instead, he avoided her breasts entirely and focused on stimulating her insides. Nana climaxed immediately. Afterward, Hiro paused, letting Nana rest in a trance-like state.
Two hours later, he repeated the process. Within just five minutes, Nana experienced her second climax. Finally, after that, her body began to calm down, relaxing in the afterglow. Hiro sighed in relief—Nana wasn't completely broken. She could still return to normal. By tomorrow, she should be able to resume her usual life.
In the middle of the night, Nana's body suddenly heated up as she wiggled her waist, instinctively seeking Hiro's touch. Sensing her desire, Hiro indulged her, fulfilling her needs without going further.
"Master❤... thank you..." Nana whispered, her voice filled with devotion. Alex was now a distant memory, completely forgotten. Even when Hiro played with her ears, she no longer climaxed immediately. Her training had shifted, now aligning with Hiro's desires. Smiling inwardly, Hiro caressed her head. Nana was no longer Alex's—she was his now.
Hiro turned his attention back to Marissa. He had nearly forgotten his original intention: to use his new skill to heal her paralyzed legs. Marissa, in her sleep, muttered Hiro's name, hugging and kissing his tentacle even though they had only been intimate once. Hiro pushed aside his lustful thoughts, deciding to focus on the task at hand. Through their sense-sharing, he confirmed that Marissa's lower legs were numb, and unfortunately, his flesh mending skill didn't fix it completely.
Taking a drastic approach, Hiro created a bone knife from his tentacle and made a small incision in her waist. He applied his flesh mending skill, and it worked—the sensation returned to the repaired flesh. However, it drained more of his resources than he anticipated. For that small chunk of flesh, he used about 10 cell storage. Healing Marissa's legs fully would take several days. If he rushed, it could put them both at risk. Hiro needed his cell storage for combat and other needs, so he couldn't deplete it entirely now. Instead, he decided to focus on her left thigh, cutting out the damaged flesh and using his flesh mending skill. The process consumed nearly fifty cell storage. After cleaning up the blood, including traces of her lost virginity, Hiro retreated back into Marissa's womb, satisfied with the progress.
Now that his task was complete, it was time for the long-awaited level up! Hiro eagerly clicked the star symbol beside his level in the status screen. A blue box appeared, listing his new upgrade options.
[You have leveled up to level 9]
[Choose an upgrade:
- Material Analysis
- STR +5
- Mag +5]
[level up achieved!
STR: 28 -> 30
Dex: 27 ->28
Mag:0]
Hiro almost danced in glee when *Material Analysis* finally appeared as an upgrade option. He eagerly planned to select it. However, before confirming, he briefly glanced at the *STR +5* option, which promised a flat 5-point increase to his Strength stat. Comparing it to a previous upgrade that had offered a 10% increase to his Strength, Hiro decided that the flat increase wasn't as appealing and ignored it for now.
After selecting *Material Analysis*, Hiro noticed a small stockpile of iron nearby. Now, he could mold his own iron weapons—perhaps crafting a sword for Cecile or spears for combat. Although he wanted to make a bow and arrows for Nana, he couldn't yet create the necessary bowstrings or feathers for fletching. Additionally, since he had given most of his iron supply to Marissa, it would have to wait.
"Look! I can walk now!" Marissa exclaimed, proudly showing off her coordination with Hiro as she slowly made her way to her desk. Her knights, along with Rebecca, Nana, and Cecile, cheered and applauded.
"With this, there will be no more rumors about your disability! The house of Daneswald will finally regain its dignity!" Clarissa shouted while Maroon danced in joy.
"Has there been any reply from the capital?" Marissa asked.
"Yes, milady. The capital has responded, and you are scheduled to meet His Majesty in three days. Should we prepare your carriage?" Clarissa replied.
"I'll leave tomorrow. I need to get more accustomed to Hiro's assistance. Honestly, I feel bad about ordering him around like this," Marissa said, as she gestured toward the floor and Hiro moved her legs accordingly. Although Marissa knew Hiro was intelligent, their lack of verbal communication made coordinating a challenge. At first, she had spoken politely to him, her eloquent voice pleasant to hear, but it quickly became repetitive. Eventually, Hiro used his tentacle to quiet her by gently covering her mouth. Marissa understood the gesture, and since then, she had simply directed her movements with brief commands.
Hiro put a temporary hold on Marissa's recovery. He had managed to heal both of her thighs, but his cell storage was running low at 200/500. The number slowly increased as he absorbed nutrients from armadillos and his host, but he hadn't gone hunting since the day before. He wondered whether he could convince his hosts to eat more, as he needed additional nutrients.
"Rebecca, I will do my best to keep you here, okay? Hiro wants that too. If I ever fail, I will let you know in advance, and you can flee this territory," Marissa reassured her, showing her resolve. Now that she had personally experienced how valuable Hiro was, she understood why other nobles would covet him.
"Yes, ma'am," Rebecca nodded, appreciating Marissa's dedication.
And so, Marissa rode her carriage to the capital the following day to meet her uncle. Little did Hiro know, her uncle, the King of Litmus, was a bona fide symbiote user.
