Chapter 328: Uninvited Guest (1)

A method to ensure Cheon Jihee Sunbae wouldn’t give up on love, while also not losing Hye-eun, momentarily surfaced in my mind, but for now, I set that aside.

There was a certain confirmation that it was a groundbreaking idea and could lead to a good conclusion, but ultimately, this plan was more important to hear Hye-eun’s opinion on than my own.

No matter how much Hye-eun was a good girlfriend who listened to everything I said, I couldn’t just impose my demands based on that premise.

Especially regarding this matter, there was a significant possibility that Hye-eun, not me, might not be comfortable with it.

It was important to persuade Cheon Jihee Sunbae together with Hye-eun, within boundaries that wouldn’t make Hye-eun uncomfortable, so I’d have to discuss this part with her separately.

As for the other items I checked, I recall there wasn’t anything particularly special.

There was a supplementary explanation that it wasn’t a universal homosexual attraction to women, but rather a fetish that developed because the person she happened to fall in love with was Hye-eun.

The dependency stemmed from a deep sense of gratitude for having her life saved by Hye-eun, mixed with the fear of being abandoned if she ever became useless.

The unrequited love was, quite literally, meaningless content about her unrequited love for Hye-eun deepening over more than two years.

Since there didn’t seem to be any other particular points to verify, I stopped reviewing Cheon Jihee Sunbae’s sexual fetishes at an appropriate point. Coincidentally, by that time, the conversation topic I was using as an excuse to keep her there was also roughly concluded.

“…So, it’s that Hye-eun is grateful to Cheon Jihee Sunbaenim for what happened back then.”

“…Th-that’s right…? Hye-eun said that? Hmm hmm….”

“Shall we get going soon? I think I’ve told you everything I intended to tell you, Sunbaenim. We finished the coffee a while ago, too.”

“……Alright.”

Although the voice sounded strangely disappointed, I had truly reached my limit. Talking endlessly by myself, fabricating stories out of thin air.

…It’s going to take some time later to get on the same page with Hye-eun.

Well, anyway, Cheon Jihee Sunbae wouldn’t likely try to verify her own story told through someone else’s mouth, so it was an unnecessary worry.

Even if she lacked dating experience, she wouldn’t be that clueless.

And besides that, right now, I didn’t really have the time to deeply concern myself with the details of Cheon Jihee Sunbae and Hye-eun’s relationship.

Tomorrow alone, there was a party hunt scheduled in a shared dungeon with Sihee and Eunbyul. Naturally, that schedule included sex afterward.

Perhaps because the things Sihee was busy with have been somewhat resolved, the frequency of meeting the two of them felt like it increased, even if just a little.

It’s a good thing for me. In a way, their fetishes opened up new indicators for my sexual preferences.

Spending time with women like that was incredibly enjoyable for me too.

Even after transferring to the company, the hectic schedule hasn’t changed. Perhaps, in many ways, having more things to worry about has made me busier than before.

Anyway, the work to strengthen the Sky Blue Shield’s forces was also nearing its final stages.

Whether it will conclude successfully or not will ultimately require direct confirmation.

Same day afternoon, the Dokyung Group mansion.

Do Sihee, returning to the mansion after finishing a rare day with only morning appointments, went straight into her room without even having lunch.

It wasn’t for trivial reasons like being on a diet.

Her beautiful body, in the first place, wasn’t the result of diets that involved starving oneself, but rather a well-built physique achieved through a balanced diet and frequent activity.

The reason Do Sihee skipped her meal was simple. It was because the very next day was the day she would meet her Master and the lover of her heart, Kim Sungchul.

Sihee strictly adhered to the principle of fasting 24 hours before meeting him, so she planned to skip lunch and not attend dinner either.

Of course, separate from meals, she intended to thoroughly prepare herself right before meeting him.

It was Sihee’s nature to prepare meticulously in every possible aspect.

“Hoo.”

With a faint sigh, Do Sihee, half-perched on the table in her room, immediately spoke to the maid who had followed her.

“You didn’t have to skip your meal because of me, Eunbyul. Surely you aren’t planning to skip dinner with me too, are you?”

“As your servant, I cannot possibly eat while leaving you, Master, to go without.”

“You don’t need to be so stiff. You know I’m not the type to complain about things like that.”

“I know you’re naturally not that type of person, Master, but it’s because your eyes aren’t the only ones in this mansion.”

“Well… I suppose that can’t be helped.”

Considering the eyes of the dozens of servants and Dokyung Group executives wandering the mansion, it was indeed better to refrain from any behavior that might stand out, even slightly.

Especially considering Eunbyul’s situation, hiding here after running away while concealing her identity as the young lady of the Geumhyang Group, not just a mere maid.

If she didn’t thoroughly ‘act’ the part of a perfect Dokyung Group servant, there was no telling when her true identity might be exposed and she’d be sent back to her family.

Except for a few very limited situations, Eunbyul always ‘acted’ the part of a noble and perfect Dokyung Group maid.

The talent for wearing a mask and ‘acting’ a specific role was her specialty, something she had become sickeningly familiar with since her days as Geum Nari.

“Tomorrow already. The day you, Master, are scheduled to meet Kim Sungchul-nim.”

“Why are you talking like I’m the only one meeting him? Tomorrow is the day you and ‘Eunbyul’ meet Sungchul-ssi?”

“…I don’t have the right to interfere with the intimate time between you, Master, and Kim Sungchul-nim. It’s absurd for me, who couldn’t even grasp your benevolent intentions when you proposed it, to dare insert myself into the relationship between you two….”

“I’m sorry, but neither Sungchul-ssi nor I think that way? At least in front of me, I want Eunbyul to be true to her feelings.”

“…….”

Rendered speechless by her Master’s statement, the maid quietly closed her mouth.

Towards Eunbyul, Do Sihee added the following words to help her be honest.

“Besides, you’ve clearly seen the effects of making love with Sungchul-ssi too, haven’t you, Eunbyul?”

“…Yes.”

“Your skills, which had stopped progressing some time ago, started improving again, right? The size and types of metals you can handle at once also increased.”

“…That’s correct.”

“It not only caters to your unbelievably absurd perverted desires but even helps your stalled awakened abilities grow. There’s no reason to refuse, right? If Sungchul-ssi truly thought you were a hindrance, your awakened abilities wouldn’t have recovered their growth rate.”

“…You speak the absolute truth.”

At Sihee’s words, Eunbyul nodded repeatedly, expressing her agreement.

She almost felt a surge of indignation at the phrase ‘unbelievably absurd perverted desires’.

Eunbyul inwardly felt proud of herself for suppressing the urge to blurt out, ‘Those aren’t words a Master should say’.

“…Eunbyul.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Could you bring me Sungchul-ssi’s underwear that we secured at the hotel last time?”

“Tomorrow is the day you meet Kim Sungchul-nim, are you sure about this?”

“Talking about Sungchul-ssi made me unable to wait. I’ll just sniff it for a moment and put it back….”

“Understood. I’ll prepare it for you then.”

Eunbyul had already figured out that Sihee wouldn’t just sniff it and put it back, but she didn’t point it out or object.

As his personal maid, she knew better than anyone that relieving stress appropriately helped manage her Master’s condition.

Eunbyul took out one of the sealed garments from a locked box placed in a corner of Do Sihee’s room.

She handed the rectangular briefs, contained in a sealed plastic bag, directly to her Master.

“Here you are, Master.”

“Thank you, Eunbyul.”

Without hesitation, Do Sihee took the sealed bag containing the briefs from Eunbyul’s hand, opened the bag, and thrust her nose into the opening.

After taking a deep breath, she slumped halfway onto the chair with an ecstatic expression.

“Ah, Hnggg… Sungchul-ssi’s scent…”

She was well aware that Kim Sungchul would likely be horrified if he saw this situation, but Do Sihee was already so addicted to him that she couldn’t endure without feeling his trace, even indirectly like this.

Relieving stress by using Kim Sungchul’s body scent, secured whenever the opportunity arose, like this, was one of Do Sihee’s regular routines.

“I was worried because the scent had faded significantly even from Sungchul-ssi’s clothes that were smuggled… secured… from Indonesia, but thanks to you looking after me last time, Eunbyul, I survived.”

“I merely did what was naturally necessary for you, Master.”

“Hngg, Sungchul-ssi, I’m sorry… I’m sorry for being such a pervert who finds it too hard to endure each day without even your scent…”

Do Sihee’s hand, which had brought Kim Sungchul’s underwear out of the plastic bag and pressed it directly against her face, slowly moved downwards.

Eventually, unable to suppress her heightened desire this time either, just as she was about to begin the act of masturbation to relieve her urges.

“Knock knock.”

At the two knocks heard at the door, Do Sihee’s body froze for a moment.

Quickly assessing the situation, Eunbyul approached the door and identified the person who had knocked.

“Who is it?”

“Open the door, Eunbyul. I have something to discuss with Sihee for a moment.”

“…….”

“…Tsk.”

Hearing the familiar voice even through the door, Do Sihee clicked her tongue unpleasantly.

It was the voice of Do Yehee, Do Sihee’s half-sister, whom she despised with all her heart.
