Chapter 2: Building Tension
As Gorou made his way towards the hot spring, he couldn't help but wonder why such a place would exist amidst the otherwise desolate landscape. But when he finally arrived, he found himself standing before a small pool of crystal clear water, steam rising lazily from its surface. The air was thick with the scent of sulfur, and the heat radiating from the water felt inviting against the cool morning breeze.
Gorou removed his clothes slowly, revealing his lean, muscular frame, covered in short brown fur. Scanning the room and his eyes locking onto the hot oni, sitting in the hot spring.
He approached the hot spring tentatively, his gaze fixed on Itto's form. The Oni hadn't noticed him yet - his attention was focused solely on the warm water that sit at his chest, leaving behind tiny droplets of moisture that glistened under the bright sunlight.
Itto's powerful legs were spread wide apart, giving Gorou an unobstructed view of his large, hairy crotch. The sight sent shivers down the dogboy's spine, and he struggled to maintain his composure.
As if sensing Gorou's presence, Itto turned his head slowly, fixing his piercing red eyes on the younger man. For a moment, they simply stared at one another, neither saying anything.
Finally, Itto broke the silence. "What do you think you're doing here?" he growled, his voice deep and menacing. Gorou could feel the power emanating from the oni, and he quickly realized just how vulnerable he was standing there, naked and exposed.
"Um...
Itto continued to glare at Gorou, his expression unforgiving. Despite his fearsome appearance, however, Gorou refused to be intimidated. Instead, he stood his ground, determined to confront the oni and demand an explanation for his sudden aggression.
Inside, Gorou was filled with confusion and confusion, he had never seen Itto behave like this before, but his face showed none of it, instead, he tried to look calm and composed.
But something inside him snapped.
