BLBJ 4.3

It felt like just yesterday, he’d thought life was unpredictable. Truly, he couldn’t foresee even an inch ahead, day by day. If he’d told the Eizen of a few days ago, ‘In a few days, you’ll be walking down the street completely naked,’ he would have scoffed.

“Haah.”

Eizen gripped the towel tightly. The wind blowing up from below felt bitingly cold.

The only slight comfort was that it was evening. Thankfully, there weren’t many people on the streets.

‘Still, I can’t walk down the main road like this.’

Even though he’d gotten used to being seen by viewers, he hadn’t become brazen enough to walk down a major street completely naked.

Besides, the viewers weren’t people living in this world, were they? Everyone said, ‘It’s just a game, so it’s fine!’ But as he’d reminded himself countless times, this was reality for Eizen.

“Going back to ask for clothes… well, that’s a bit much. I’ll just go like this.”

💬Challenge! Walk home naked!

💬What a badass.

💬Guess he’s relying on his looks.

💬Hahaha, even if you’re handsome, walking around completely naked would probably get you called a lunatic.

💬Well, whatever. It’s a game.

Eizen naturally turned into an alley. It was an unavoidable choice. He wouldn’t normally wander through alleys, but the situation was what it was.

‘Please, just don’t let me run into any gangsters.’

What could they possibly steal from someone already completely naked?

Still, Eizen prayed silently, over and over.

‘Ah, damn it. Come to think of it, I also need to meet Pike.’

He’d momentarily forgotten that he had to meet Pike to turn off the broadcast.

That meant going home, getting dressed, and heading out again to meet Pike. And to make matters worse, he’d left one of his few sets of clothes at Tennes’s place.

When things go wrong, they really go wrong.

With a frown, Eizen quickened his pace. Unlike the clean main streets, the alleyways were littered with trash, making his feet ache as he walked. Something seemed to prick his foot, but he had no time to check.

‘Almost there.’

💬Isn’t he gonna run into some thugs at this rate?

💬Yeah, this is usually where random mobs try to jump him.

💬BunnyPrince strikes again 😂

💬Anytime someone says “they’ll probably get jumped,” it’s always BunnyPrince.

💬And if someone’s praising looks, it’s always Misogu.

💬Did someone call me? I appreciate beauty of all kinds, not just handsome guys.

💬I saw the edited clip! Did you touch up the visuals?

💬Just tweaked the colors a bit. It’s still gorgeous even without filters.

Eizen glanced sideways at the chattering viewers. They were the kind who’d react faster than anyone if a dangerous person approached.

Eizen was walking so fast that he was out of breath.

How long had he been walking like that?

💬Whoa! Watch out!

💬Stop!

By the time he heard the warning and stopped, it was already too late. Eizen had collided with someone.

“I’m sorry.”

Just as he bowed quickly to apologize and tried to pass, Eizen’s arm was grabbed firmly.

“Is ‘sorry’ all you’ve got?”

What the hell was this typical thug line?

💬😂 Oh, BunnyPrince.

💬A mob really just showed up!

💬Someone’s gonna save him, right?

💬But… who’s it gonna be? 😭

Eizen was rendered speechless by the utterly clichéd line and stared at the man’s face. They were a group that looked shady at first glance. Sloppy movements, slightly dirty clothes. 

Eizen’s arm, which they had grabbed, looked unnaturally pale.

“I’m truly sorry.”

Isn’t the best thing just to apologize and move on? As he mumbled “I’m sorry” repeatedly, trying to pry the hands off his arm, Eizen’s jaw was grabbed.

“What’s this? You look kinda cute.”

Goosebumps rose on his skin.

Eizen rolled his eyes. Why do these guys have to be like this? The moment that thought crossed his mind, someone grabbed him from behind.

“Wh-what the…?”
“And your flesh is so soft.”
“Seeing you walk around naked, didn’t you want this?”

A chuckling voice accompanied a hand reaching out to touch the towel covering Eizen’s lower body.

“Eek!”

Only then did he realize.

‘Right, this is a BL game!’

In this game, the probability of a man getting into trouble is always high. Eizen realized this fact far too late.

“… this is usually where random mobs try to jump him.”

He shouldn’t have ignored BunnyPrince’s words.

“S-stop it.”
“Stop it, Rae.”

Men surrounded him, chuckling nastily as they echoed Eizen’s words. Then they started dragging him toward a darker, more secluded spot.

“Let go of me!”
“We’ll let you go once we’re done.”

“Why? We could probably sell him for a good price.”
“Where would they take him after we’re done with him?”
“He’ll be useless after that.”

💬Where do you think they’re going?!

💬Where else – obviously there!

💬Why can’t anyone just say butt!

💬He hasn’t even done it with a main yet! He can’t lose it to a mob!

💬Someone save him already!

💬He’ll get rescued at the last possible second, I’m sure.

💬It’s not his life that’s in danger here, it’s his purity!

The audience really isn’t helpful. Even though someone casually says someone will come to rescue him, Eizen couldn’t naturally assume someone would come.

‘If it’s a game, someone will definitely come!’

He struggled with all his might, but the men seemed unfazed, just grabbing Eizen’s ankles and pulling.

“Kicking and wriggling, aren’t you?”
“He’ll be whining soon enough, anyway.”
“It’s good he’s energetic. If he just collapses right away, it’d be boring.”

“Help me!” As Eizen shouted with all his might, a filthy handkerchief was shoved over his mouth. “Mmmph! Mmmph!”

The more he struggled, the tighter the grip on his limbs became.

Eventually, he was dragged deeper into a shadowy alley within the alley. His back hit the ground. The scraping against the pavement stung his bare skin.

The men pinned Eizen’s ankles and wrists down with all their strength, chuckling as they groped his entire body.

“Mmmph, hicc…”

He shuddered at the sensation, like bugs crawling over him.

It never felt this disgusting when the capture targets touched him. He even bought the XX skill. Why did these men feel only this unpleasant?

💬At least they’re keeping it PG, the towel’s still on.

💬😂 If that towel came off, it’d go 19+ instantly.

💬Who knows? If it had gone 19+, we might’ve gotten an actual mob scene.

💬Not gonna lie… I kinda like mob play.

💬Same here.

💬It’s fine as long as the main tops him first.

💬😂 There’s an order for that now?!

The viewers’ chat didn’t even register.

A hand groping Eizen’s thigh slipped beneath the towel like it was seeping in.

“Ugh! Ugh!”

The more he struggled, the more his wrists and ankles, pinned to the floor, ached. Eizen wasn’t exactly small, but overpowering several men was tough.

The man holding Eizen’s left wrist bent down and bit hard into his chest.

“Ugh!”

Eizen gritted his teeth. Of course, muffled by the filthy handkerchief, he couldn’t be heard properly.

The sensation of being bitten with all their might around his nipple made his entire body tremble violently. He couldn’t even feel the tongue licking his nipple. His chest throbbed painfully.

“Huh, ugh. Ugh!”

The hand that had been groping up his thigh touched Eizen’s cock, which felt not a shred of excitement. The cock that had responded so readily to other men’s touch until now shrank as if overcome by a chill.

When Eizen twisted his hips, trying desperately to escape, the men burst into a sniggering laugh.

“You want me to put it in already?”
“No need to rush. I’ll give you more than enough.”

The moment his fingers swept down over Eizen’s limp flesh and slipped deep between his legs, footsteps drew near.

As if the handkerchief gag wasn’t enough, a large hand clamped over his mouth.

“Ugh!”

Eizen struggled with all his might. Whoever it was, he desperately hoped they would save him.

The footsteps paused briefly, then drew a little closer. A voice he recognized, so welcome, reached his ears.

“… Brother?”
“Mmmph! Mmm! Mmmph!”

Eizen twisted his entire body desperately, making sounds. The harder he struggled, the tighter the men clamped their hands over his mouth, but he couldn’t give up.

Even as the slow footsteps drew nearer, the men surrounding Eizen prevented him from seeing even the hem of Pike’s robe.

💬Knew it. Pike to the rescue.

💬I totally called it’d be his turn next.

💬Wait, don’t tell me he’s gonna thank him with XX…

💬They haven’t even had a proper kiss yet, though?!

The audience seemed unfazed, as if they knew it would happen, but Eizen was desperate in his own way. 

In the game, the capture target would obviously come to save you! That’s how it should be!

“Ugh! Ugh!”

The men had covered his mouth, so tightly his cheeks throbbed with pain.

“Are you a priest?”
“No.”
“Ah, you’re a paladin.”

The men greeted Pike calmly. As if they hadn’t done anything wrong.

“Step aside.”
“Trying to pass here? It’s a dead-end alley anyway.”
“Isn’t there someone hiding behind you?”
“There’s nothing there.”

Eizen struggled, but the harder he fought, the tighter his wrists and ankles were pinned.

“I heard a sound.”

💬Tops always get superhuman hearing when it’s about their uke.

💬I knew he’d come to the rescue anyway.

💬Yeah, having his first time here would’ve been way too much.

💬If the mob had actually done it, this game would’ve turned full dark BL.

💬Yeah, agreed 😂

Watching the viewers’ nonchalant chat, Eizen struggled even harder.

Even if what these people said sort of made sense, he couldn’t just blindly trust it. Frankly, if he’d just thought ‘someone will save me’ and stayed still, would Pike have even heard him?

“Please move aside.”
“Why bother? If you want to play hero, go somewhere else.”

The men chuckled and shoved Pike aside lightly.

“We’re not doing this because we want to, you know?”
“A beauty’s wandering naked through the alley – how could we just stand by?”
“Exactly. If he got caught by some other scumbag, it’d be a disaster.”

Eizen had never wandered an alley, nor had he stripped naked by choice, but he couldn’t even offer an excuse. He tried to bite the hand covering his mouth, but the cloth stuffed inside made it impossible.

“Even if he’s wandering around naked, detaining him is wrong.”

💬Just fight already, please.

💬They’re not gonna be persuaded anyway. What’s the point of long speeches?

💬It’s a pain, so just get the sword out already.

The impatient ones urged them to just fight.

Eizen gasped for breath. His hands covered his nose and mouth, even a scrap of cloth. Unable to breathe properly, his head spun.

“The person behind you seems familiar to me. Please let them go.”
“I don’t think you know each other? Would a paladin like you associate with such a pervert?”

💬Mr. Eizen hahaha, you’re a pervert.

💬Well, he is a pervert, I guess.

💬I have nothing to say.

💬Honestly, I would have thought he was a pervert too if I’d met him.

And in the midst of all this, they’re actually agreeing with him being called a pervert.

Eizen, choking, struggled once more.

“Ugh!”

“That sounds like a scream. Please let me go.”
“To my ears, it sounds like moaning.”

Hearing the men show no intention of letting him go, Pike let out a short sigh. Then, he calmly pushed aside the man blocking his path and tried to enter the alley.

“Oh, why are you doing this?”

The man who had grabbed Pike’s wrist with a slimy grin instantly had his wrist twisted. “Aah!”

“Don’t touch me.”
“Ouch, hold on a sec!”

Whether he shouted “hold on” or not, Pike, without batting an eyelid, shoved the man against the wall. 

Thud! 

A rough sound followed by a pained groan escaped the man.

What followed was instantaneous. A group of men surged forward, but Pike subdued them effortlessly, his breathing not even faltering.

Eizen watched the fight with a slightly dazed expression.

💬The action is killer.

💬Wow, I’m definitely playing this game when it comes out.

💬So freaking cool.

💬I’m buying Pike stock starting today.

💬But if Pike is that good, doesn’t that mean the Emperor is even more incredible?

💬I wish they’d show us some more action.

Eizen seemed just as stunned as the viewers. It was such a spectacular scene that the question ‘Is this really a movie?’ slipped out naturally.

Eizen, still unable to remove the cloth stuffed in his mouth, stared at Pike with a dumbstruck expression.

“Are you alright?” Pike slowly approached and helped Eizen to his feet.

“Uh…”

Pike, who had personally removed the cloth stuffed in Eizen’s mouth, looked around.

“Where are your clothes?”
“…”
“Did those bastards tear them off, brother?”

Unable to admit he’d come naked, Eizen just nodded.

Pike let out a low sigh, then took off the cloak he was wearing and draped it over him.

“Thank you.”

It was admittedly quite strange to be wrapped in just a towel in an alleyway to begin with. Fortunately, Pike didn’t seem to have thought that far.

Eizen gripped the hem of the cloak tightly.

“I’ll escort you home.”
“Thank you.”

Pike led Eizen toward the main road. Now that he wasn’t completely naked, Eizen obediently followed Pike.

“Ouch.”

He let out a cry from a sharp sting as he walked absentmindedly.

“What’s wrong? Ah.”

Eizen wiggled his toes, but there was no way to hide his bare feet, devoid even of shoes.

Pike let out a short sigh and strode up to Eizen.

💬Princess carry!

💬He could just toss him on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

Unaware of the excited reactions of the viewers, Pike crouched down in front of Eizen and offered his back.

“Hop on my back.”
“Huh?”
“You’re barefoot, aren’t you?”
“Yeah, but… hop on your back? That’s a bit…”

💬Just hop on.

💬This is totally a romance movie, right?

💬Earlier it was an erotic movie.

💬Hahahaha.

Eizen wiggled his toes.

Truthfully, his soles, ankles, wrists – everything ached.

His back, scraped against the floor, stung.

The aftereffects of coming four times still hadn’t faded.

Eizen bit his lip hard, then simply wrapped his arms around Pike’s neck and pressed his chest firmly against his back.

“Th-thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” A gruff voice replied.

“Which way should I go?”
“That way…”
