Meanwhile, sitting on the edge of their bed. Yumiko looked towards the door with a worried gaze. She knew something bothered Ryuji from the moment she saw him inside the medicinal herb bath.
I've never seen him suffer enough to need help to recover. He might have seemed fine, but I could feel it. The frustration and desire to become stronger, even during sex, he was so passionate and rough... It felt amazing, but I could feel like he was desperately clinging to someone to hold his hand, to support him, but I noticed only after everything ended.
She glanced at the bathroom door, hoping Erika would wake up quickly. Yumiko didn't want to keep these facts to herself because she couldn't always be there for Ryuji, wanting to share the darkness that lingered, Ryuji's inner turmoil.
After all, there was no one in the world she trusted more than a woman sleeping with the same man.
However, she didn't wake up. It seemed the sex was too much for the human body to endure, and being a monster, it seemed the more rough he became, the more Yumiko could endure, especially after growing a second tail.
"That idiot... where did he go?"
About five hours passed since Ryuji trained in the basement, Yumiko felt close to leaving the room and using his scent to follow him.
*Click!*
The door opened, but for the fox beast Yumiko, the first thing she noticed was the thick odour of blood and Ryuji's sweat mixed with the sickly sweet scent of blood so thick she could taste it on her tongue. "Ryuji... what have you done?" Her voice was low, filled with concern, as her eyes dripped with faint tears.
"Y-Yumiko..." Ryuji walked inside, his body wrapped in a white robe that clung to his frame from the copious amount of sweat covering his body.
His arms were swollen from the constant barrage of punches, his fingers bent at an awkward angle, and his legs appeared to make him limp while trying to balance the weight on each leg. While the robes didn't cover his lower body, giving her a delicious sight to behold.
"What happened?" Her eyes leaked with concern. Ryuji seemed like he endured a bloody battle, causing Yumiko's heart to clench like a vice was crushing her.
"It's fine," Ryuji said.
"What's fine!? You look like you're about to die." Yumiko glared with eyes filled with fury, her feelings bursting outwards as she lunged at him and held him in her arms, the small fox only reaching his chest, yet she refused to let go.
"Yumiko... I'm fine. I'm fine." He gently stroked her ears as he gave a gentle smile.
"Fine? Look at yourself, Ryuji," Yumiko hissed with concern as she raised her arm and touched his hand, which caused him to grimace and reveal a bit of pain, "your bones are cracked, your fingers and toes are so tender, and you stink of blood..." She trailed off as tears rolled down her face.
"I can't use my body for a while, but it will be fully repaired after breakfast," Ryuji spoke gently, though his tone lacked that cheerful zest, seeming more solemn and grave than usual.
"Did you train alone, in a way to improve yourself, because you're not human?" Yumiko asked.

Ryuji nodded his head slowly, though he looked confused about how she knew this secret he didn't even tell Alan.
"Why... why didn't you ask me to join you? We're lovers, aren't we?"
"Because..." He paused while leaning over and whispering in her ears. "You don't know what I am. How could I ask you to endure the pain I inflict upon myself?" Ryuji's words caused her to recall the brutal training that they endured yesterday.
"Because I love you." Her teary eyes looked into Ryuji's dark eyes with a conviction he had never seen before. "Ryuji, I want to be beside you. In light and dark, in times of happiness and pain. So if you want to train in secret at night, we both train together!"
Yumiko looked into Ryuji's eyes with a loving expression that could melt ice as her movements became even faster.
The sensation of pleasure was so great it caused her to tremble in euphoria as she enjoyed his meat pole against her cervix, crushing the entrance of her womb, causing her insides to shake from the powerful impacts while the water filled with healing minerals and herbs splashed around their bodies.
"Of course... because we're monsters... together!" Ryuji answered, moving his arms to wrap around her waist, helping Yumiko move as the sounds of her comfort and delight leaked with erotic noises.
"Thank you... Haaa... Thank you...." A beautiful smile on her face caused Ryuji to feel a faint twitch in his member as he almost reached the peak of pleasure. "Mm.. I feel so good; don't hold back."
Yumiko said, her body feeling the muscles on his chest and hands wrapped around her waist as she released a moan of delight before whispering in his ear.
"Please, Ryuji... fill me with everything. I will accept anything as long as you let me inside and share your feelings with me."
The moment he heard this, Ryuji felt an electric shock spread through his body as he pulled Yumiko into a fierce kiss. Their lips pressed together, and as he sucked on her tongue, their eyes filled with an earnest desire. The kissing grew deeper as he began to release his seed into her womb.
"Mm- Mmph!?"
A comfortable moan seeped from her lips as the warm liquid filled her insides. Yumiko trembled as she reached the height of pleasure. Her eyes narrowed as she clung to him tightly and wrapped her legs around his waist, allowing his hot seed to pour into her womb.
The two stopped moving, hugging each other tightly, while it seemed Yumiko's eyes closed as she slipped into a light sleep after enduring the afterglow.
"You silly girl... to me, you could never be a monster. You are the most beautiful woman in the world and my lucky fox." He held Yumiko gently in his arms and started to wash her hair with the melon-scented shampoo.
Unbeknownst to Ryuji, the moment she felt his hot essence fill her insides, Yumiko gained one attribute point in strength and agility. Not only that, but something changed; something inside her awakened thanks to their spiritual connection and her accepting him as someone of worship.
"Mm... Thank you, Ryuji." She slept in his arms while clutching him tightly with her whole body.
In the corner of her heart, Yumiko felt a sudden feeling of warmth and faith in Ryuji that made her feel secure like never before... the text in her eyes read.

Because she achieved this moment of enlightenment and spiritual bliss during sex, it seemed her skill became more erotic and made her seem like a true Profane Saintess.
