“No… wa… wait. What do you intend to do by seducing someone like me?!”

Startled by her bold action of climbing onto my groin, I hastily removed the hand that was gripping her chest and instead grabbed her waist.

Though incomparable to her chest, the soft sensation was enough to make me gasp, and my face flushed even redder.

“Someone like you, you say? Jazel, you have a bad habit of underestimating yourself.”

Hearing my words, Ariel frowned as if angry, raising the corners of her eyes as she looked down at me.

Faced with her unexpected anger, I stupidly blinked, staring back at her as she glared at me.

“Compared to Killua-nim, the White Mage… or Rai, the excellent hunter, I’m nothing special…”

Killua, who possesses wisdom and magic great enough to be recorded in myths and legends.

Rai, with her amazing archery skills and useful medical knowledge of various herbs from the forest.

Even Ariel, who was now seducing me, was a naturally gifted Fire Mage.

Among them, I was just a very ordinary extra, with only talent as a merchant.

“Jazel. Why do you think I’m seducing you?”

Hearing my answer, Ariel, in a calm and composed tone, turned the question back to me, asking for the reason behind her actions to seduce me.

“Surely… because of Killua-nim? You don’t want information or secrets about the Mage-nim, do you?”

Only one most likely reason for her to seduce me came to mind.

It would be to dig up information, weaknesses, or secrets about Killua, the White Mage.

“No.”

But contrary to my expectation, Ariel let out a small laugh as if she had expected such an answer, expressing strong denial with a firm voice.

Then she slowly leaned down, looking directly into my face from above, and opened her mouth.

“It’s because I don’t want to lose you.”

At her frank and intense confession, I was speechless, staring blankly with my mouth agape at Ariel, who was looking down at me.

Perhaps finding my expression amusing, Ariel subtly curved the corners of her lips upwards and gently brushed back my bangs and forehead, where a slight cold sweat had formed from my entire body tensing up.

“Honestly, even if treatment is the reason, do you think it makes sense to climb on top of a lying opposite-sex body?”

Ariel gently rubbed her waist back and forth, still on top of my body.

From the close contact between our groins, the distinct hot sensation and soft touch caused my lower body to swell rigidly, beyond my control.

“If there isn’t a strong liking for the other person… it’s a scandalous thing one would never do.”

As if to prove how lewd this situation was, with a woman on top of a man, Ariel’s waist movements began to become increasingly seductive, accompanied by a sly smile in her eyes.

Unlike Killua, Ariel skillfully and seductively moved her waist, explicitly rubbing my rigidly swollen member against her private parts.

“Ah… Ariel… Wa… wait…!”

Her actions, akin to foreplay, made me urgently hold my breath to hide my quickening gasps.

“Ahahaha. Your flustered look is incredibly cute. It’s hard to believe that the person who made such a firm and bold decision to save me is the same person groaning beneath me right now.”

Even my bewildered reaction seemed to be a great source of amusement for her, as Ariel let out a cheerful laugh.

Along with her laughter, Ariel’s breath also carried a subtle sweetness and warmth.

Ariel, looking down at me with a slightly flushed and excited face, gently smiled with her eyes as our gazes naturally met.

“You’re going to leave with Killua-nim once you recover, aren’t you? This is my sly ploy to seduce and keep you before that happens.”

“Keep me… keep me? Not Killua-nim?”

Flustered by Ariel’s frank confession that she wanted to keep me, I brought up Killua.

At that, the corners of Ariel’s eyes, as she looked down at me, sharpened slightly.

“Jazel is Jazel. You’re not like Killua-nim’s accessory, are you? Don’t try to link everything to Killua-nim.”

“So… sorry…”

Her firm and resolute rebuke made me apologize to her without realizing it.

In response to my apology, Ariel gently brushed back my bangs once more, as if forgiving me.

Regaining a little composure from her gentle touch, I met her gaze without evasion and calmly asked again.

“But just as I don’t know much about you… I don’t understand how you could have fallen for me without knowing anything about me.”

This was the reason I was wary of her sudden seduction towards me.

Not much time had passed since Ariel and I met, and the conversations we’d had were few and far between.

Despite that, to suddenly use her body to seduce me…

I couldn’t help but misunderstand that she might have some other ulterior motive with me, the White Mage Killua’s assistant.

“I told you I was jealous of the Mage-nim, didn’t I? That trust and devotion you showed the Mage-nim… if you had given that to me in the sense of love, I feel like I could have given you everything of myself.”

She also met my gaze without evasion, calmly explaining the honest and frank reason why she had fallen for me.

“To be honest, I didn’t want to seduce you using such extreme methods… but rather than hesitating and helplessly losing you, I decided to take a chance, thinking it was all or nothing.”

Immediately after, Ariel gave a playful wink, subtly showing off her voluptuous figure as if to flaunt it.

“Fortunately, I was confident that my physical charm could overpower the Mage-nim’s.”

“Aha… Ahahaha…”

Her joke, full of playfulness and lewdness, made me burst into laughter without realizing it, and my tension eased.

At my relaxed laughter, Ariel also smiled slightly and gently folded her body onto mine, which was lying on the bed.

Feeling her soft, warm chest fill my embrace, I could feel her body temperature, which was incomparably hotter than mine.

“Shall we… just once… try it?”

With a whisper containing a cautious proposal, Ariel took my left hand and guided it towards her inner thigh.

Startled by her sudden action of guiding my hand to such an intimate place, I tensed my fingertips, but Ariel only guided my hand as far as her inner thigh.

“……”

On my fingertips, which had reached her inner thigh, I felt a warm, sticky moisture filled with lewdness.

“If our sexual chemistry is good… feelings that weren’t there might suddenly blossom, you know?”

She also, with a slightly trembling voice that held a hint of nervousness and shyness, offered the lewd proposal again.

My mouth went dry, and my heart pounded as if it would burst, at the alluring proposal that was almost too frightening to refuse.

My already swollen member throbbed violently with my heartbeat, knocking against her groin as if demanding union.

“Th…”

“But unfortunately, that’s all for today~”

The moment I was about to answer her lewd proposal.

As if she had been waiting for the moment my lips parted, Ariel whispered into my ear with a short but firm voice.

“Wha… what do you mean?”

At her whisper, which abruptly cut off the flow, I looked at Ariel with wide eyes filled with bewilderment and belated regret.

“Killua-nim is here, remember?”

Towards me, Ariel gave a light wink and pointed a thumb towards the door.

Now that she mentioned it, Killua had said she would examine my body once the treatment was over, in case Ariel tried any tricks.

She would be waiting for Ariel’s treatment to end, on high alert, so I couldn’t waste any more time than necessary.

“Well then~ let’s see each other better next time!”

Ariel lightly kissed my cheek with a meaningful remark. Then, she raised her body, which had been folded onto mine.

As the soft sensation and warm body heat that had filled my embrace helplessly left me, a sigh of regret escaped my lips.

“In that sense, how about we go on a date this morning?”

When I was raising my upper body to follow her, feeling much lighter thanks to her treatment.

Ariel, who had lightly straightened her disheveled clothes, looked at me, smiled, and threw out a sudden proposal.

“A da… date?”

“This time, I was too impatient and seduced Jazel with my body… but it’s best to calmly get to know each other the proper way, isn’t it?”

As if her words about trying to seduce me weren’t a joke, Ariel looked at me with a slightly flushed face.

“If we get to know each other a little more… there might be even better things next time, don’t you think?”

At her subsequent blatant seduction, my face also flushed bright red as the previous lewd situation came to mind.

“Sh… shall we…?”

Succumbing to her temptation, I was, after all, just a man.

As Ariel said, if she had truly fallen for me, there would be no harm in indulging her temptation just once.

Even if she had another hidden agenda, I would only know her true intentions by taking her bait and pulling it in at least once.

“But let’s tell Killua-nim and then make a move.”

And in the absolute worst-case scenario. If it becomes clear that Ariel is seducing me to pull some trick… if I inform Killua-nim of all these facts beforehand, she’ll surely prepare a way to resolve or prevent it.

At my suggestion to tell Killua about the date between Ariel and me, Ariel’s brow furrowed slightly.

But after a few seconds of thought, she lightly shrugged her shoulders as if it didn’t matter and nodded.

“Hmm… well. It probably doesn’t matter, right?”

“It might be uncomfortable, but please understand. We’re not in a situation where we can easily trust anyone.”

Especially, being wary of Ariel, who properly knew Killua’s true identity, was unavoidable.

Although Killua had lost all her magic now, she was effectively the White Mage-nim who had once dominated the entire continent.

The moment her magic was sealed. Her knowledge and wisdom were so valuable that the Demon King would invade human territory alone, even at the risk of war.

Even from my perspective, there was a very high possibility that Ariel was seducing me to extract even a portion of that immense knowledge and wisdom.

Although I felt sorry for Ariel, who had frankly revealed her feelings and confessed, I still couldn’t shake off my slight suspicion towards her.
