“Wow… You’ve got everything, seriously. Everything.”

Mir Ryuin was the most capable among the three patients I was in charge of, and she was a renowned hero with high status. Through her extensive magical, technical, and engineering knowledge, she had contributed more than anyone else to the world’s development, and as a result, she possessed wealth commensurate with her contributions. Of course, the reason she unleashed her knowledge to advance the world wasn’t altruistic; it was simply for her own comfort. However, such reasons were not particularly important. In this world, the emphasis was on results rather than processes or reasons, and her achievements had become one of the pillars supporting modern society. Among Mir Ryuin’s notable inventions were the Gate Measurement Device, Awakened Being Classification Analyzer, and Gate Outbreak Forecaster. She had countless other inventions that had significantly impacted this world and the awakened society. Through her ‘Epic-level Ability – Akashic Record,’ she had become one of the world’s wealthiest individuals at the tender age of twenty-six, and was hailed as the only wealthy person with an ability that none of the other wealthy individuals could possess. As if achieving such incredible feats wasn’t enough, even when evaluated by force, she stood just below the world’s strongest human, Adamas, shining as the second-ranked individual in the World Hero Rankings. She was truly a formidable figure, to the point where it was natural to say she had everything. However, when I said Mir Ryuin had everything, it didn’t include the achievements listed above. It was simply the stark naked truth. That alone made the words “You’ve got everything” spill from my lips. Frankly, with Mir Ryuin’s abilities alone, she could easily toy with and discard men from all over the world like pieces of candy. Having such abilities and yet possessing a body like that— isn’t that truly unfair?

The world may be unfair, but the unfairness hits home even harder when Mir Ryuin, one of the world’s wealthiest individuals, is so outstanding in appearance as well. Mir Ryuin typically uses magic for most of his travel, flying around, and apart from conquering gates, he spends most of his time holed up at home conducting research, resulting in a completely flabby physique with no muscles to speak of.

However, despite this lack of physical activity, there was nothing unsightly about him; only the advantages of a flabby body due to his lack of exercise were highlighted. Moreover, when he did go out, he was always clad in black, barely leaving the house, which left his skin paler than any woman I had ever seen, even whiter than Mei Luina, who maintained her perfect condition through overwhelming magical prowess.

In summary, Mir Ryuin possessed an ideal, pale, flabby body that any indoor enthusiast could hope for. In essence, it meant a truly captivating body that could make a man’s heart and loins tremble. Frankly, I thought that with so much pent-up resentment, I would easily get back at Mir Ryuin just through my desire for revenge, but with a body like his, it was inevitable to feel an irresistible urge.

Being the most resentful among the three, I still harbored a clear sense of vengeance and an instinctive, irresistible urge that rivaled my heart and libido. With both hands wielding weapons capable of overwhelming a woman on their own, I felt no unease in pushing Mir Ryuin to the limit.

“Well then, where should we start? Let’s confirm the emerging mark.”

I have every reason, knowledge, and experience to torment Mir Ryuin. The current me can easily bring Mei Luina to ecstasy with just a tight embrace and can render Dain Adamas unconscious with a few taps on the belly, making me a true genius in warfare. There’s nothing to fear. So whether it’s his flabby chest or his adorable little potbelly that looks perfect for a loving grasp, it doesn’t matter! Come at me, mark!

With such thoughts in mind, I observed Mir Ryuin’s soft and white body without a single wrinkle, just as it was. “Hmm?” Just as before, I could see the mark that had emerged on Mir Ryuin’s body, which was completely different from the two people in front of me. “What is this…?” The mark that had appeared on Mir Ryuin’s body was only one uterus tattoo engraved on her lower abdomen, just like Dain Adamas. However, Mir Ryuin’s uterine tattoo had a crucial difference from Dain Adamas’s. Dain Adamas’s uterine tattoo was a perfect and complete one, made up of countless intricate lines densely packed together, almost like a fine painting. In contrast, Mir Ryuin’s uterine tattoo, extending from her cheeks to her lower abdomen, was smaller and simpler than Meiluina’s uterine tattoo, which had emerged on her whole body. It was a very simple and concise uterine tattoo that seemed to convey only the information that there is a uterus inside this lower abdomen. It was a pitiful uterine tattoo that seemed to lack any stimulating taste or effect at all. [What? Why are you making such a disappointed sound as if you’re so disappointed after looking at someone else’s body? Even if it’s said to be the most beautiful body in the world, there would be no one who wouldn’t acknowledge it if it were my body, right?] Truly disappointed by the pitiful uterine tattoo, Mir Ryuin expressed her doubt as if to prove that even if she became a plant-human, she would still be an S-class hero. Feeling slightly offended by her questioning look, I hesitated for a moment about what to explain, but since this was all for her treatment, I told her the truth. “Um, compared to Meiluina and Dain Adamas we met earlier, Mir Ryuin’s uterine tattoo is too small and… thin. To put it bluntly, it’s quite pitiful. This is the first time I’ve seen something like this, so it’s quite surprising.” [Wha-what?! H-how can you say that to me?! Have you ever heard such words as ‘inferior to others’?] Startled by the truth I spat out with my pride, Mir Ryuin let out a huge exclamation of shock.

Right now, I’m a plant human, so my facial expression hasn’t changed and my voice is the same, but just hearing it, you could tell she was deeply scratched.

But what can I do? It’s the truth.

“However, Mir Ryuin’s tattoo isn’t as large and expansive as Mei Luina’s, nor is it as thick and dense as Dain Adamas’s. Mir Ryuin’s uterine tattoo is just small and… thin. It’s so thin that you can’t even estimate where to stimulate. Compared to the previous two people, Mir Ryuin’s tattoo is just at the level of scribbling.”

“[Gasp… S-Stay…!]”

Ah, this is dangerous. I’ve said things I shouldn’t have, without even realizing it.

I had forgotten about this special situation; the three patients I was in charge of were all S-rank Awakeners who would be embarrassed to even look at an F-rank like me. Moreover, they were heroes who saved the world, gaining eternal fame and overwhelming support in this era. If any of the three still harbors resentment towards me after the treatment, my life will surely be a mess.

If at least these three were decent people, I wouldn’t have to worry so much, but I know very well that their personalities are not that great. No, it’s not just that they’re not great, it’s that they’re not particularly good people. Hmm.

That’s why, in order to live my own life to the fullest, I must always keep in mind that I need to treat them in a way that leaves no room for resentment.

In that sense, the current situation is extremely dangerous. Just one step… no, even half a step forward would mean crossing the line. I quickly regained my composure and muttered words I didn’t mean to comfort Mir Ryuin, who had left in a huff.

“B-but it’s okay! The fact that Mir Ryuin’s tattoo is small isn’t Mir Ryuin’s fault! Rather, it’s abnormal how large, thick, and huge Mei Luina’s and Dain Adamas’s tattoos are! Um! In fact, Mir Ryuin’s uterine tattoo might be average! So, don’t worry too much about what I said!”

“Plus, since there’s a bit of uterine fibroids. I think we can develop Porcio just like what we did to Dain Adamas! Um. It won’t affect the treatment at all, so don’t worry!”

[None at all… None of it comforts me.]

“…Yes?”

As I sensed the low and heavy voice, I unintentionally mumbled.

[Do you think saying that kind of thing, comparing and then trying to comfort me, will make me feel better? How dare you look at Mir Ryuin and say I’m worse than Mei Luina and Dain Adamas?]

Although I simply mentioned that her uterine fibroids were small, it seemed to sound different in Mir Ryuin’s ears. Whatever my intention was, if Mir Ryuin took it badly, I would end up being a jerk who said something bad.

“Oh, no, I didn’t mean I’m worse than both of them…”

So, I blurted out an excuse, buying time while closely observing Mir Ryuin’s naked body, the only cause for resolving this situation.

I have to find something. I have to find something unique to Mir Ryuin that Mei Luina and Dain Adamas don’t have…!

First, her face. Incredibly beautiful. Honestly, setting aside personal feelings and preferences, Mir Ryuin is my type.

But hearing such words from me wouldn’t make her feel any better, so I’ll pass.

Then, her breasts. When squeezed, they feel soft enough for the hand to sink in. The fact that even the nipples are perfectly pink is truly the epitome of a man’s fantasy.

In terms of softness, she might be the best among the three. But for the same reasons, this is also rejected.

Next, her love handles, soft and cute, perfect for grabbing.

It’s embarrassing, but if someone were to say it, it would probably just piss her off even more.

Lastly, not a single hair on her white belly.

Wow, her body is really something. But how do I compliment this now?

I couldn’t see anything other than a body that’s just embarrassing and impossible to overlook.

Damn it, this is seriously screwed up. It’s really messed up. Of all things to mess with, it had to be Mir Ryuin’s state of mind. This is absolutely insane!

Just as I thought my life was about to end when the Anguish 1 stack was about to finish healing, at that moment…

“Huh?”

A thin line protruded from Mir Ryuin’s small and pathetic uterine tattoo.

T-This, could it be…!
