5. Luring (1)

“So yeah, I just let it slide since it was our first date. But then we’re sitting in the movie theater during this super serious scene, and suddenly he lets out this huge fart!”

Ahn Su-hyeon said this and then demonstratively farted herself.

Loudly!

Ye-eun and So-eun burst into giggles.

Su-hyeon continued laughing:

“I swear it was even louder than that. The whole theater cracked up during this intense moment. Ugh, so embarrassing.”

Grandma clicked her tongue disapprovingly.

“Should a proper young lady be farting like that at the dinner table?”

Su-hyeon stuck out her tongue playfully. “What’s the big deal? Girls don’t get scolded for that anymore these days. Right?”

As she said this, she casually rested her hand on my thigh.

I choked on my soup while laughing at her fart story. “Ghk.”

Fuck, my throat hurts.

“Uh, yeah. People don’t make a fuss about that these days,” I managed.

Su-hyeon smiled, placing kimchi on her rice with chopsticks while continuing her story. “That was my first and last boyfriend. Total airhead. No idea if he’s alive now.”

Ye-eun nodded while eating. “Any friends you can contact?”

“Had some. Not anymore,” Su-hyeon answered nonchalantly.

Everyone at the table understood what that meant.

These women had likely tried calling everyone they knew dozens, hundreds of times already.

……Hmm……
Wait a second……
Why is Su-hyeon keeping her hand on my thigh?
When I dumped the batteries and tools in front of her earlier, she looked strangely happy. Must be the gifts.
Not that I mind.
I glanced at Su-hyeon.
She happened to look back.
I smirked and asked, “What should I bring tomorrow?”
Su-hyeon frowned. “Why so formal? You’re two years older than me. A year older than Ye-eun unnie, and six years older than So-eun. Just speak comfortably.”
I chuckled. “Sure thing.”
Looking at Ye-eun and So-eun – Ye-eun nodded, but So-eun wouldn’t even meet my eyes.
She’s really shy around men.
“Alright then. I’ll speak casually,” I said, now addressing everyone. “What should I get tomorrow? Need anything? Grandma?”
Grandma answered first. “Oh, so many things. We need chili powder, anchovies…”
Ye-eun timidly raised her hand. “Um…if it’s not too much trouble…could you maybe get some…feminine products…?”
Feminine products?
Ah, sanitary pads.
I nodded and looked at Su-hyeon. “I’ll be scouting the area anyway, so just tell me whatever you need.”
Looking between Ye-eun and Grandma, I tilted my head. “Chili powder, anchovies, and…hm, a supermarket would have all that. Could you draw me a map of nearby stores? Big and small.”
Ye-eun nodded. “There’s small grocers, regular supermarkets, and a big mart. Which ones should I mark?”
“All of them. I want to check everywhere.”
Su-hyeon said admiringly (still with her hand on my thigh): “Are you brave or reckless, oppa? Those things are out there. Aren’t you scared?”
I smiled lazily. “Terrified. But someone has to go get supplies. Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”
Su-hyeon gave me a peculiar smile, resting her chin on her hand while staring at me silently.
Strange feeling.
Feels like we’ve gotten really close.
Can people bond this fast in one day?
Maybe it’s just the circumstances.
But don’t forget –
I’m still a stranger to these women.
After finishing dinner, I got up.
That petite, big-breasted girl Su-hyeon was subtly wiggling her fingers on my thigh, making my dick twitch.
Damn it.
“Thanks for the meal.”
Grandma nodded with an “Eung.” Must be from Chungcheong province.
“Come down for breakfast tomorrow, young man.”
“Yes, Grandma. Thank you.”
Then Su-hyeon spoke up: “Oppa, do you have a phone charger?”
Huh? Oh right.
When I shook my head, she nodded. “I have a spare. I’ll bring it.”
“Ah, thanks.”
Then Ye-eun called me.
She was holding a shopping bag.
“This is…my dad’s old…clothes.”
…Ah.
I must reek right now.
I smiled and took the bag. “…Are your parents reachable?”
Ye-eun shook her head.
I nodded. “Mine too. Don’t worry too much. They’re probably safe somewhere.”
“Yes…thank you.”
I showed Grandma the bag. “I’ll wear these well.”
“Eung. Sure.”
Leaving the main house, I climbed the stairs.
Hah.
Dinner’s over.
That was…surprisingly normal.
These women…
Don’t know I just split a middle schooler’s skull open.
No plans to tell them either.
In this world, you either survive or die.
This normal dinner is actually abnormal for our situation.
How long can we keep having meals like this?
Entered the rooftop room.
Leaned against the door.
I just killed someone.
Not a beast human – a real person.
Surprising.
…I feel nothing.
Maybe killing so many beast humans has numbed me.
Kill or be killed.
That’s the world now.
After showering, I realized how badly my clothes had stunk.
Hah, fuck.
Wrapped in a towel, I looked around.
Could use a cigarette.
Didn’t smoke before, learned in the army.
Tried quitting after discharge – yeah right.
Suddenly craving one after showering.
Where’s my bag?
Ah, found it.
Took out a cigarette and lighter from the front pocket. The smoke filled my lungs then exited refreshingly.
“Haa…”
Nice buzz.
Good.
*Knock knock*
Hm?
“Oppa, it’s me. Brought the charger.”
Ohh.
I started to stand but paused.
Currently just in a towel with no underwear?
Well, just need to get the charger.
Cracked the door open, peeking out. “Ah, thanks.”
Su-hyeon’s eyes widened seeing me. “Oppa smokes?”
“Yeah.”
“…Why are you just peeking out?”
I grinned. “Naked right now. Just showered.”
Su-hyeon blinked slowly. “…Can I have one too?”
……Is this an excuse to come in?
This girl……
She was giving off vibes during dinner too…
…My dick’s starting to stir.
I smiled. “Sure. Come in.”
Opened the door wider, gesturing inside. Su-hyeon scurried in.
“Wow…it’s really empty… Where’s the outlet?”
“There.”
Pointed to the corner with my bedding.
As she walked over to plug in the charger, I approached from behind.
And hugged her.
“Ah!”
Su-hyeon startled but didn’t resist.
I smiled against her ear. “I like you.”
Then groped her breasts.
From touching my thigh at dinner to wanting to enter a naked man’s room – no way I’m letting her leave now.
Soft belly.
Full breasts.
About 155cm tall? Maybe 50kg?
She turned slightly and mumbled, “At least…talk first…”
What nonsense.
Her hair tickled my cheek as I turned her face toward mine and kissed her.
Her plush lips parted automatically.
Her tongue came out willingly.
Soft and wet.
No idea why she’s suddenly like this.
Is it the apocalypse?
Being cooped up inside?
Doesn’t matter now.
Laid her on the bedding, unhooking her bra.
*Click*
Tossed aside her shirt, then quickly removed her pants.
When I rubbed the mound over her panties, she shuddered.
…Already wet.
She must have been anticipating this since dinner.
Sucking her nipple while kneading her breasts.
First woman I’ve held in so long.
Her sweet scent tickled my nose.
Slipped a hand into her panties – soft folds welcomed my fingers.
Bushy.
As I rubbed the warm crevice, juices started flowing.
So slippery.
“…Ahh…hng…”
Su-hyeon moaned faintly.
Yanked off her panties and tossed aside my towel.
My cock stood rigid.
Hah.
Heart pounding.
Rubbed my shaft between her thighs.
“…Going in.”
No reply.
She just spread her legs wider, eyes closed, moaning softly.
Pushed my hips forward.
Warm, slick tightness enveloped me.
“…Ahhn!”
Su-hyeon grimaced.
Hugging her close, I began moving slowly.
Pleasurable sensations wrapped around my cock.
“Haa…feels good, Su-hyeon.”
No words – just moans.
* * *
“We’re not dating,” Su-hyeon said primly while dressing.
“Sometimes I get urges. You happened to be here.”
I chuckled and spread my arms. “I’ll always be here. Anytime.”
Kept fondling her breasts as she dressed – she didn’t stop me.
Nice handful.
Fully dressed, she looked back. “Goodnight, oppa.”
Gave my cheek a peck.
“Yeah. Sleep well.”
Watched her leave and close the door before relaxing into bed.
Pretty good night.
Rest well, then head out again tomorrow.
Checked my status – 4 points now.
…Four?
Two at the hardware store…
One on the street…
Huh?
Did the middle schooler count?
Why?
…Do all kills give points? Or just those already infected?
…Not sure.
Anyway, four points…
Should secure Acceleration.
Added the 4 points to Mind, now at 14.
One more for three Acceleration uses.
But…
Need to think about handling groups first.
Going out and leveling is good, but a horde would overwhelm me.
…An idea formed.
…The convenience store.
Could use that.
…Good.
Nodding, I closed my eyes.
