A few hours later.

As I emerged from Jo Malsang’s house, my pockets seemed to burst with hefty gold pieces.

Gyeomin, whom I found, was in the midst of organizing account books with a lantern lit when I swiftly opened the door and knocked them out before they could even utter a word.

It was all thanks to my high agility.

In Gyeomin’s room, aside from gold pieces, I found jewels, documents, promissory notes, but I didn’t touch them.

Disposing of the jewels would be troublesome, and the documents and promissory notes posed similar issues.

I must mention that despite the theft, nothing happened for several months.

Although I lost a large sum, Gyeomin seemed to have somehow covered it up.

Or perhaps Jo Malsang quietly disposed of Gyeomin to prevent any rumors from spreading.

Returning to my brother’s house late at night and entering the room…

“Sister-in-law?”

At first, I didn’t recognize who it was.

But there was a fragrance emanating even in the darkness.

Certainly not something that could come from an ordinary maid.

In this household, there was only one woman who could exude such a scent, and that was my sister-in-law.

“Ahem. Yes.”

“But why aren’t the lights on…”

“I thought you might get hungry at night, so I brought some snacks. While waiting, the oil ran out and the light went off.”

“Then you could have just left the food and gone…”

Why linger in the room?

Could it be wandering thoughts?

My sister-in-law was twelve years older than me, with two children.

She had no interest in women at all.

“I don’t have any fantasies about my sister-in-law.”

If I didn’t have memories from a past life, I might have delusions alone, but considering my accumulated forty years from both past and present lives, it seemed my brother also lacked interest.

After giving birth to the two children, he seemed uninterested in my sister-in-law. Even when trying to bring in a concubine, he opposed it, diligently searching for a suitable match every day.

Still in his thirties, having children, he should know everything by now, but since she doesn’t reciprocate his affection, my brother is accumulating dissatisfaction.

“Still, it’s proper to at least see your face and convey greetings. But why are you coming back so late at night?”

“Ah! It’s my first time in Hanyang, and I got lost while exploring around.”

“Oh my! Next time, make sure to bring a servant with you.”

“Yes, I will do that.”

“Well then, I’ll take my leave…”

As my sister-in-law rose from her seat. But!

Stumble.

“Oh my!”

She suddenly leaned towards me, holding her forehead with one hand.

I had to grab my sister-in-law as she leaned in, but why was the hand not holding her forehead moving towards a discreet place?

Oops.

“Oh my goodness!”

As if by mistake, I reached out to grab her hand, only to find a large club, which truly surprised me.

For some reason, in this adult version of customization, there was even genital enlargement.

“Of course, it’s impressive! After all, I’ve invested a lot of money in various enhancements.”

About a third of the money spent on enhancements went into the genitals.

The enhancement was quite remarkable.

“Brother-in-law?”

“Yes?”

“Please stop now.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

Only now did my sister-in-law let go of my hand.

“I-I’m sorry. It’s dark, and I felt dizzy after sitting and standing up…”

“Yes.”

“T-then I’ll go.”

Leaving behind a very regretful tone, my sister-in-law exited the room.

However, using the darkness as an excuse, she had touched me in various places.

“If she keeps coming back, what should I do?”

I wanted to find a separate place to stay, but I couldn’t do as I pleased since I hadn’t married and needed my parents’ permission.

#

“Panting. Panting.”

“Are you tired?”

I’m the one asking the question.

“Isn’t it obvious? How many rounds of sparring have we had already?”

Breathing heavily, the person glaring at me is someone who recognizes me as either the first or second in swordsmanship under my command.

“Indeed, youth is a great thing. I used to think my stamina was better than most young folks, but you surpass them. How come you don’t even break a sweat?”

“No, it’s just on the surface. Once I take off my clothes, I’m drenched in sweat.”

Although I seemed flustered, truthfully, I wasn’t sweating.

Ever since my strength, stamina, and agility increased by +10 each, I never easily tired out.

The other person chuckled and nodded approvingly.

“Hehe, drenched in sweat? It’s only natural if it shows on the outside. Words can be deceiving.”

“Shall we call it a day here?”

I said, feeling slightly uneasy.

“If you say so, I’ll be grateful. By the way, how much time is left until the exam?”

“It’s late April now, so it seems like there’s less than a month left.”

“You will definitely pass. No, you will definitely rise to the top.”

“Oh, come on. How many skilled individuals are there in Joseon Palace Eight? There must be plenty of capable people even among the officers, right?”

“No. There’s no one quite like you. Honestly, it seems like now, it’s not me who should be guiding you, but you guiding me.”

“Oh, that’s really not true.”

“It is. And besides swordsmanship, aren’t you learning other things as well?”

With enough stolen gold pieces, I could easily hire someone to train me.

I recruited instructors for swordsmanship, archery, and other disciplines.

There were those working under my command, those serving as officers, and even retirees.

Skill was crucial, but I carefully selected based on connections.

Asking for guidance while offering money wasn’t bribery!

Believing firmly that effort doesn’t betray, but bribery does not, I proceeded.

After training, I entered an empty warehouse.

“Is the bath ready?”

“It’s prepared.”

Training always started and ended at set times, so the attendants automatically prepared the bath.

“Hmm. Leave.”

“Yes.”

Once alone, I swiftly removed my clothes.

“Will she spy on me again today?”

A slight moan was heard upon undressing completely.

“She’s back.”

The culprit was my sister-in-law.

After spying once during my bath, she became addicted and did this daily.

Initially, there were just surprised sounds, but eventually, short moans accompanied the pouring water.

Entering the wooden tub filled with hot water, I stood and poured water over myself using a ladle.

“Ah… Ah…”

As expected, the sounds came again.

“Well, relieving oneself in this manner is probably better for releasing tension. It’s a service!”

I turned to expose the hole.

“Ugh!”

Today, the huge pestle felt particularly stiff.

Swish, swish, swish.

The sound of silk brushing against skin was quite intense.

“What is she doing…”

“Alright, let’s see this through till the end.”

Not just standing while pouring water, I remained standing while scrubbing with my hands.

After about 30 minutes, I emerged from the tub and dried myself with a cloth.

“Satisfied, now please leave.”

I hoped I hadn’t crossed any lines.

However!

At night, without fail, my sister-in-law brought supper to my room.

Today, her scent was stronger than usual.

Was that a new hanbok?

“You’ve trained hard during the day, you must be hungry, right?”

Approaching with a smile on her face, she sat beside me instead of across from me as usual.

“Why is she being so forward?”

“Please, have some. It’s fresh.”

Tonight’s meal was… oysters.

Oysters were brought every day.

Even though they weren’t cheap, why feed me only these?

Honestly, just sitting quietly would arouse a response during this lively time, but eating oysters made it harder for me to control my desires.

“Thank you.”

“Please have some of this as well.”

What was offered was sikhye, a traditional Korean rice beverage.

However!

“Oh my! How did this happen? I made a mistake…”

As she poured the sikhye, it ended up spilling on my spot.

My sister-in-law quickly grabbed a cloth to wipe it off, managing to avoid me, but her hand definitely brushed past mine.

“It’s okay.”

“Yes. I’m sorry.”

Blushing, my sister-in-law turned away.

“It seems like I spilled on the floor too.”

Pushing her hip towards me, she started wiping the floor.

While my sister-in-law’s figure was somewhat hidden, her curves were clearly visible as she leaned over to clean the floor.

As she kept coming closer to me while wiping the floor, suddenly a strange thought crossed my mind…

Thwack!

“Oh, I’m sorry. It seems like… like a flea landed on me without me knowing.”

“…It looks like there might still be a flea. Since it seems to have gone under your skirt, could you give it one more hit?”

Hit it?

“Oh! Underneath?”

Thwack!

A sharp sound echoed.

“Ouch. Um, it seems like it’s still itching…”

Stealthily.

Lifting her skirt, my sister-in-law said, “If you could check where it is and give it a hit…”

“Well then…”

Yes. For the sins I’ve glimpsed at so far.

After giving one more hit, my sister-in-law even lowered her underskirt?

In the end, with only the innermost part remaining exposed, both sides of her white buttocks were fully revealed.

It was the first time I had seen a woman’s intimate area up close.

As a man, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.

“It seems like it’s deeply lodged… It’s unbearable… Just one more hit…”

Where should I hit? Her buttocks? The intimate area?
