episode_0003

I let out a hollow laugh, feeling flustered.

This unbelievable situation was accompanied by a sudden surge of fear.

But what filled my heart even more than that

was a subtle elation rising within me.

Something indescribable about this unknown ‘specialness’ being presented to me.

Even the unknown power that could perhaps revive my failing dojang.

However.

“But isn’t this a bit… criminal?”

That part bothered me. I don’t consider myself a great saint, but I’ve never committed any notably bad deeds.

But this, if I were to accept the text in this quest tab as it is.

How should I put it?

Like in adult novels, using a hypnotic app or something to do nasty things to a woman without her being aware?

As an ordinary adult male who has lived within the boundaries of the law, it was something I hesitated to readily engage in.

But, even so.

‘She’s really pretty, though…’

I inadvertently found myself thinking that.

I’ve lived for 27 years and never once dated a woman.

I went to an all-boys middle school and high school, and was busy hanging out with friends, busy exercising, busy maintaining my grades in college because I wasn’t smart, busy getting certifications, busy slogging through the military, and for the past year I’ve been extremely busy starting a dojang and keeping it afloat.

Of course, people who are inclined to date manage to do so no matter how busy they are, but that didn’t apply to me.

It’s not like I’m completely clueless when it comes to dealing with women. Thanks to working as an instructor since college, I was fairly confident in my ability to interact with people.

But my rugged appearance and not-so-interesting personality didn’t easily allow for ‘dating’.

That’s why I’m wavering even more.

“…….”

Impure thoughts arose. Bad ideas came to mind.

If that [ Permitted Touch Area ], written so explicitly, were all unlocked.

If I could touch the body of such a pretty woman, a woman I might never even hold hands with in my life, as I pleased.

Judging from this blatant content, it’s clear that it’s not just about touching, but that in the future, it will allow me to do something more than that.

If that were possible.

Enduring that temptation.

“Should I… try it just a little bit…?”

Was by no means an easy task.

***

“What’s taking you so long?”

“Ah, I’m sorry. I suddenly received an urgent call.”

“Haa… so, what are you going to teach me? Do I need to change clothes?”

“No. Since it’s a trial, I’ll just teach you something simple that you can learn as you are, so it’s fine.”

My heart was pounding.

It was similar to the excitement and thrill I felt when playing minor pranks with friends when I was young.

Of course, what I’m about to do now is an incomparably worse deed than that. But that sense of sin was instead converted into a feeling of transgression.

The woman in front of me, her face full of dissatisfaction because I came out late.

Even that face, even that expression, was pretty.

Her small head, about the size of my fist, and sharp eyes, tightly closed lips, and the tight outfit that revealed her slim figure…

-Twitch

“Excuse me.”

Without realizing it, I was scanning Jung Ye-sol’s body with an overt gaze, and I immediately averted my eyes when I saw her eyebrows furrowing. There was a small amount of anger in her voice.

I’ve heard that women are sensitive to the gazes of others, did I look too openly?

“I’m sorry. Um… I was just wondering what to teach you first because of the… body, body size difference…”

“…Just teach me one thing. I’m just going to watch that and leave.”

“Yes, yep!”

She seemed to be in a bad mood.

Thinking that this might lead to nothing, I took a deep breath and calmed my mind.

First… the very first thing.

“First, may I ask your name? It’s a short time, but I’ll still need to call you while teaching…”

“Jung Ye-sol.”

Wow, her name really is Jung Ye-sol.

“Thank you. Then, before we start, I’d like to confirm one more thing.”

“What?”

I carefully said to Jung Ye-sol, who was tilting her head with an annoyed voice.

“Due to the nature of a self-defense class, please keep in mind that there will inevitably be various physical contacts…”

“So what?”

“Huh?”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

“Um… well, yes?”

“Why are you saying such useless things… stop wasting time and start already. I’m busy.”

“…Yes. Then let’s begin. Please stand in front of me.”

From the perspective of a trial student who had taken the trouble to come to the dojang, she might have thought that I was rambling on unnecessarily.

I understood that feeling, and normally I would have been grateful just for her listening to me.

But… frankly, her curt tone was a bit rude.

Thanks to that, the guilt and sense of sin within me faded ever so slightly.

“Put your bag down for a moment… Sometimes there are people like this, right? People who just try to grab your arm or hand without any consideration.”

“There are.”

“Would you try grabbing my wrist like that?”

No sooner had I finished speaking than she, who had been standing aloof with her arms crossed, took half a step forward and reached out her arm.

As if to see my skills, she acted with much less hesitation than I had expected.

-Thwack

Jung Ye-sol’s slender fingers wrapped around my wrist. I was almost stunned for a moment by the touch of a woman’s hand, which combined coldness and softness, but I hadn’t been wasting my time exercising for the past ten years.

I relaxed my body, made a large motion, and rotated my wrist downward.

Then, Jung Ye-sol’s elbow was naturally raised, and her upper body bent slightly forward.

At the same time, I gently pulled the grabbed hand towards me, and gently pressed down on Jung Ye-sol’s elbow with the hand that wasn’t being held.

“Huh?”

-Thud…

Her body fell to the floor. I had carefully controlled it, so it wouldn’t hurt.

In fact, it was a smooth movement that took place in less than a second.

I smiled as I looked at her, who was greatly embarrassed.

“How is it? You can feel that I didn’t use any force, right?”

“…Isn’t that because of the difference in size?”

“Of course, there are cases where it works better or worse because of the size difference between us. But if you exclude those parts, it will usually work. It might not work if the other person just grabbed your wrist lightly, but someone who grabs a woman’s wrist recklessly wouldn’t do that, right?”

As I said those words, I naturally grabbed her arm and waist and helped her up.

She was really thin. The woman’s waist wrapped around my arm felt like it would break with just a little force.

Even excluding the clothes, the woman’s body was really soft… and a good scent was engulfing me, the entire dojang.

Those things gave me a deep impression, but rather than falling into that impression, I immediately looked at Jung Ye-sol’s reaction.

‘Did I make a mistake?’

Because I had only dealt with young children until a few months ago, I had unconsciously touched her body without hesitation.

And that was a woman’s waist.

I had given prior notice that there might be various physical contacts, but it was a part of the body that women generally disliked being touched.

However, Jung Ye-sol showed no reaction to my grabbing her wrist or waist.

“How do you do it?”

She was just urging me on with interest and curiosity in her eyes.

“I’ll grab your wrist.”

Thanks to that, I grabbed Jung Ye-sol’s wrist with a little more confidence.

It was thin and frail. My heart started pounding like a teenage boy.

Not young children, not the sturdy girls I saw when I was in college.

Grabbing the wrist of a slender adult woman was truly one of the few times in my life.

No, maybe not at all…? Damn it.

“Rotate your wrist downwards in a large motion. Then, due to the human body structure, your arm will rotate and your upper body will inevitably bend slightly…”

“Like this?”

In response to my explanation, Jung Ye-sol immediately rotated her wrist in a large motion. It was a minor motion, but there were surprisingly many cases where people couldn’t do it well, but she followed me well, just like I had done earlier.

My body naturally tilted, and my elbow went up. I obediently allowed it to happen and continued to explain verbally.

“That’s right, you did well. In that state, gently pull the grabbed wrist towards your body, and press down on my elbow with the other hand…”

-Press… Thud!

My body fell to the dojang floor. Jung Ye-sol almost made me fall hard because she couldn’t control her strength in an unprepared state, but fortunately, my body reacted on its own.

And on the cleanly wiped dojang floor, I was lying down with my arm twisted by Jung Ye-sol.

“Oops?”

I was genuinely embarrassed. She followed it so well.

Even though it was the simplest wrist release self-defense technique, it was by no means easy to cleanly execute the technique like this after just seeing it once and hearing the explanation.

Moreover, Jung Ye-sol and I had a large size difference, so the technique would not work if I was even slightly less off guard.

Of course, I was planning to pretend to be attacked and was relaxing my body, but it was too skillful and fast for a first-timer.

Because of that.

“What, why is it so easy? Did you fall on purpose?”

Jung Ye-sol seemed to have such doubts, as if she suspected it.

“No, that’s not… what is it? Why are you so good? Have you learned it somewhere before?”

“No.”

“Your skills aren’t those of someone who hasn’t learned it… First, would you let me up?”

“Yes.”

As soon as she released my arm, I got up.

Jung Ye-sol suspects that I went easy on her, but I should be the one having such suspicions.

These are definitely not the skills of a beginner… Oh? Come to think of it, earlier on the computer, it definitely said…

“When Director Ju Seong-hyeon instructs, the member’s learning ability and exercise effect are increased by 300%.”

Wasn’t there something like that?

If she learned it so quickly because of that, it’s really amazing… no, but if she learns so quickly, how am I supposed to run my business?

She probably doesn’t intend to learn proper martial arts, so she’ll probably master everything I can teach her in three months.

It was absurd.

And that moment of being momentarily stunned, the look of actually being embarrassed, seemed to have given Jung Ye-sol confidence.

The corners of her lips drew an arc.

Her cherry-colored lips, which topped off her pretty face, naturally stole my gaze.

‘Damn, she’s really fucking pretty.’

Seeing that, all my random thoughts disappeared. It felt like my soul would leave just from her raising the corners of her lips. That’s what kind of beauty it was.

Thanks to that, I once again felt grateful.

‘Right. From the start, it’s amazing that a woman like Jung Ye-sol came to the dojang. Let’s think positively. The money… damn, somehow it’ll work out.’

After all, the true value of this system wasn’t making money. There was a much bigger merit in being able to touch a woman’s body as I pleased.

“Can I try it one more time?”

“Yes? Ah, sure. This time, would you like to try it all the way as soon as I grab you? I’ll be careful on my own, so don’t worry about me.”

Her voice sounded a little excited. Well, if the technique is executed this cleanly, there’s no way you wouldn’t feel pleasure.

I know those feelings and emotions well, so I stood in front of Jung Ye-sol again, holding her wrist.

With a feeling that it was okay to start at any time.

At that moment.

-Thud

“……”

“It works?”

From my point of view, it was shocking, but from Jung Ye-sol’s point of view, a clean wrist release that felt so good was executed.

Because it wasn’t done in segments like before, Jung Ye-sol must have felt it too. That she had suppressed the arm and body of a man who was larger than her with a technique.

This time, I only put strength into the hand I grabbed, intending to let her win, and I relaxed my body. Even considering those parts, it was a perfect wrist release.

I could feel her excitement in the short “It works?”

“…How is it? You’ve already mastered one.”

It was an unbelievably fast acquisition. It was embarrassing to even say that I taught her.

But even though it was a failing dojang, I had been running it for a year, so I told her with the feeling that you did well too, but I taught you well─.

Then Jung Ye-sol let go of my arm and said.

“Not bad. It’s more fun than I thought. Is there anything else?”

She immediately demands the next thing. She said she was busy and only wanted me to teach her one thing. Well, it’s understandable that she’s having fun.

“A free trial is… no. It seems like you’re interested, so I’ll teach you one more as a service.”

I immediately tried to encourage her to join because she seemed very satisfied, but I changed my mind.

Self-defense isn’t just about grabbing wrists and doing things like this.

There were also types that inevitably involved a lot of physical contact for practice.

Besides, she learned it too quickly to just teach her one thing and end it.

Thinking about those things.

-Throb

I also felt my lower body reacting slightly without realizing it.

I got up from my seat.

I remembered what that homeless man said last night.

‘Hehe… it’d be even better if it was a female member, right? While teaching her, if you knead her like this… right?’

I admit it.

A strange system or quests appeared and encouraged me even more, but I admitted that impure thoughts were naturally sprouting when looking at a woman of that level.

Therefore, I quickly rotated my head. At that moment when I was wondering which of the simple self-defense techniques would be the best.

-Flash!

In front of me.
