She adjusts the massage course menu at the shop.

With a soft pop font that has its own charm, she nervously corrects it with a trembling pen.

She focuses her heart and soul on completing it, as it could change the fate of the shop.

“…Is this okay?”

☆*★*☆*★*☆

[Healing Menu]

Regular Course – 50,000 won

Advanced Course – 100,000 won

Adult Course♥ – 300,000 won

☆*★*☆*★*☆

Originally, there was only one designated 50,000 won basic course on the menu.

Thinking back on yesterday’s events, she decided to make a change.

Before starting the business, there was no data on the desires of female heroes.

But if there truly exists such an unknown area, she thought it would be bold to try it out.

She also adjusted the prices accordingly.

The 10x increase was honestly made on the spot, but she lowered it, thinking it might not be right.

“Wait, this is practically daylight robbery…! Making money off people’s desires?!”

Who would actually want this?

If she ventures into this risky territory and it goes wrong─

“No, this doesn’t seem like the right path after all!?”

She closes the menu and bangs her head in frustration.

She throws a tantrum in the empty shop.

Clang! Clang!

At that moment, the sound of the shop door opening.

“Uh… Are you open for business?”

“Oh, yes! Welcome!”

It’s an unexpected timing.

A second customer has entered, even though it’s late, during a quiet morning hour since she started yesterday.

Unlike the shy first customer, this time the person revealed their face.

It was a woman again, but if you caught a glimpse of her quickly, you might mistake her for a man.

She had a strong vibe of a young man.

A short haircut that showed her ears.

Three piercings on her left earlobe and a dog tag necklace that jingled on her neck.

Shorts that revealed her thighs and combat boots that reached up to her ankles.

She wore a military-patterned jacket over it.

Underneath, a skimpy garment that barely covered her chest, revealing her belly button.

“She’s big.”

By the way, she was a woman with a very large chest.

It seemed like she wore a tight-fitting style to keep it in place, but it made her chest look very full.

“Isn’t this style called tomboy…?”

Just by looking at her, she knew she worked at the Hero Association.

She carried hero equipment along with the titanium high-end earpiece provided by the association.

She tightened her grip, thinking business was finally picking up.

“Hello! Are you here for a massage?”

“Oh, I was supposed to be on a mission in this area, but it got canceled. It’s my first time seeing this shop, so I came in to check it out…”

The customer was just looking around casually.

On the other hand, I was more concerned about the alarming word ‘mission.’

“Monster?!”

“Uh, what?”

“Did you defeat the monster?! What about the headquarters’ post-processing? Are they lurking more in this area?!”

Bad nightmares came to mind, and I leaned forward anxiously.

I was worried that a Grade 2 or higher threat might have appeared in the area again.

“Oh, don’t worry. It was just a small fry.

It was a C-rank venomous toad monster, but they were all far away, so I came instead.”

“Is that all?”

“I’m sure. Just to be safe, I made sure to finish it off properly.”

“Thank goodness… Then there were no collateral damages.”

I breathed a sigh of relief, wiping away the anxiety.

Large monsters of Grade 2 or higher don’t appear often, but I have a trauma. A trauma of a thriving shop being destroyed.

This, from the perspective of a business owner, the appearance of a hero is not entirely welcome.

Although they are grateful individuals who fight for public safety, when they appear, along with monsters, they turn the area into chaos, so the arrival of a hero puts merchants on edge.

“By the way, you seem quite skilled. Did you study separately? Or are you a hero enthusiast?”

“Oh… I used to be part of the Association for a while.”

“Really?!”

Approaching customers with a sense of camaraderie.

“Hey, we used to be colleagues. But why are you doing this strange business now? Did you resign from the Association or get fired for fighting wrongfully?”

‘He seems like someone without reservations…’

“Well, there are various circumstances…

Oh! Would you like to come inside for a massage?”

“Oh, excuse me.

Ranked 7th in B-grade, ‘Tomboy’ Gwak Juri.”

Continuing the conversation naturally after coming out from behind the counter.

‘Oh, 7th place.’

I thought of him as a tomboy, and even his code name matched.

Since many heroes also engage in celebrity activities, it is a strategy to create an easily recognizable image.

B-grade hero Juri entered the small massage room, looking around as if everything was fresh.

As if enjoying a different experience, he casually took off his thick jacket.

“But can a hero really get a massage? I’m afraid I might dislocate your waist if I touch it wrong. Hehe.”

“Oh, I was confident in my strength even during my hero days, so please don’t worry.”

“Oh, really?”

He asked with a hint of amusement, but there was a slight doubt in his eyes.

Nervous.

It wasn’t because he was anxious that the massage wouldn’t work, but because he had to hand over the menu he was holding to Juri.

Clutching the menu tightly, he hesitated and struggled, finally handing it over as if he didn’t care.

“Here! Take a look at the courses and decide.”

Handing over the beautifully decorated menu.

“….”

“….”

Without writing a few words, Juri scanned the menu as if reading it thoroughly.

Lowering his long eyelashes, he calmly scanned it, then smiled charmingly and decisively covered it.

“Hehe, I’ll go with the basic course, please.”

“Oh, okay.”

A light decision that was different from what I expected.

It seemed like he took the courses written below as a joke.

Upon reflection, he had a feeling it could be considered harassment. He felt embarrassed at the thought that he might leave in a panic after reading it.

Ultimately, he felt ashamed of himself for making a mess.

‘Uh… I should probably throw away this menu.’

As expected, it was all just a show for one customer.

Thinking he had thrown away one menu, he casually tossed it anywhere.

“Um! Please come up onto the massage bed.

Do you want to change into a gown?”

“It’s a hassle to change. I don’t know when I’ll get another mission order.”

Perhaps due to the nature of heroes not being able to enjoy leisure, everyone seemed reluctant to change into a gown.

“Ah~ so soft♡”

Juri only took off his jumper and combat boots, as if to show off his skills.

Lying down on the plush massage bed, he wriggled his feet as if enjoying the sensation.

Despite his soldier-like appearance, he seemed more like a playful girl on the inside.

“Alright, please relax your body. We’ll start the 1-hour course slowly.”

“Yes, please take care of me♡”

A cute voice.

That was the signal to begin.

Slowly massaging his back, which was exposed after removing his coat─

Thump!

“Huh?!”

When he pressed his shoulder, his waist slightly bent.

Although his face was not clearly visible, he seemed slightly surprised by the intensity of the stimulus.

Gently continuing to massage, he relaxed with a pleasant moan.

With each stroke, the tension was released, and he relaxed.

“How is it, is the pressure okay now?”

“Uh… yes.”

For a first-time customer, he focused on relaxing rather than applying pressure.

Like knocking on muscles that were receiving their first massage, he slowly rotated his entire body.

Without thinking, I focused on the flow.

I checked where it would feel good to touch right now, and where it was bunched up.

‘It’s just something I started by chance, but it’s really fun♪’

It’s a job that shouldn’t involve personal feelings, but touching a woman’s body can’t feel bad.

It feels like unlocking the other person’s secrets one by one.

Pressing here and there, finding out what they like and dislike. Slowly unlocking secrets felt like solving a curiosity-solving puzzle.

‘By the way, it’s really soft… Am I not a physical type?’

A hero’s hard skin that would feel stiff to an ordinary person.

But when another hero touches, they can feel the soft flesh of a woman.

For the massage, I gave the right amount of stimulation, being careful not to hurt the soft skin, and used my fingers and the underside of my hand to push and relax.

“Ugh…♡”

I took the moaning under the face pillow as a signal.

If they say it feels good, I keep trying repeatedly until they quiet down, then I move on.

Like that,

“Now, will you turn over?”

“……”

After touching the body with warm and lively energy for a while, I changed positions.

But Juri fell silent.

‘What’s wrong?’

I thought she was reluctant to change when she asked to turn over, but,

“Haah, haah….”

“……”

When she turned around, I realized the reason again.

Her body was heated up.

Juri was showering with sweat.

Continuing to touch and rub, the sweat gathered heavily underneath with the heat, staining the black sports bra, and seeping into the massage bed sheet.

The same sensual smell was emanating from her.

“I-I’m sorry! I should have checked in between… I’ll bring a towel!”

“Oh, no!”

“Yes?”

Juri seemed to hesitate for some reason.

As if she had something urgent to do now, she tightly pressed her chest, then,

“You know, more than that…”

She stopped talking.

After hesitating for a moment, she quietly asked if it could be changed to a deeper course.

With that strange suggestion, my heart fluttered♥
