If I may be honest, I didn't care much whether I was 'allowed' to carry her or not. I'd just finished touching Vex all over the place—save for her no-no spots—and I also had a harem full of gorgeous babes. As such, even though Raika was a true beauty whose wild combative nature was right up my alley, I was no longer the same desperate man who offered Ayame a piggyback ride with the main driving force behind my decision being the opportunity to touch her thighs back on day 2 of my transmigration.
As a result, I merely returned Raika's gaze, resulting in the two of us entering a staring contest. Perhaps she sensed my nonchalance about the whole ordeal because a second later, she nodded her head, choosing me as her carrier.
I stepped closer to her prone form and crouched. However, instead of lifting her, I first had something to ask. "Would you like me to remove the ink?"
