“Joo Ji-hoon’s Point of View”

“Jihoon. I think I should start getting ready to go out.”

“Yeah..”

I wanted to hang out with my girlfriend a bit more, but she said she couldn’t do it today because she was busy.

“Don’t look so sad. I’ll call you again when I have time.”

Just thinking about our next meeting makes Juji’s heart flutter.

***

My girlfriend’s house’s shoe cabinet.

I was now putting my feet into my shoes with the intention of going back home.

“Joo Ji Hoon? You’re here again?”

A husky voice came from behind me.

When I looked back, a woman with tanned skin was standing there.

Kang A-rin. She is my girlfriend’s older sister.

“Hello, sister. It’s been a while.”

He turned around and bowed his head.

Last time we met I got scolded for not saying hello, but this time it was different.

“Long time no see? It’s only been about a week.”

“Haha. The closer you are to someone, the longer the time apart feels.”

“Your flattery skills are still the same. Where are you going?”

“I’ve been playing with Sehee so far, and now I’m going home.”

“That’s good timing. Kid, you don’t have anything to do today, do you?”

“Today too. If someone saw me, they’d think I was a freeloader with nothing to do.”

“Oh, did you get a job?”

My sister smiled brightly for a moment.

“No.”

“… ?”

The brightened face suddenly cooled down.

“What? Then you’re a freeloader.”

“That’s right.”

Actually, I was planning to leave the money to my girlfriend today and just hang out at home.

“You can’t do it. Follow me.”

My older sister came into the shoe cabinet, found her shoes, and put them on.

“No, where are you going all of a sudden?”

“Gym. Let’s go together and work out.”

“Ugh. I don’t like it.”

“Why?”

“What good is it if I exercise? I’m so small.”

I’m only 148cm tall. No matter how hard I work out, I can never become an alpha male.

Rather than being mediocre, it would be better to try to show off your cuteness with a slender body.

“You little punk. You should at least exercise since you’re small. What good would it do to lose weight when you’re already short?”

My sister frowned, her thick eyebrows furrowed into a V shape.

“It’s not all about using your body. You can do things that use your mind.”

“Move your body to clear your mind. Don’t talk back and follow me.”

“What is that..”

“Don’t talk back. If you talk back one more time, I’ll hit you?”

“… .”

It became a joint venture.

“Hehe. So cute.”

My sister pinched my cheek lightly and then opened the front door first and went out.

The moment I looked at her back, my eyes were drawn to her plump butt.

She was wearing leggings, so the outline of her butt was clearly visible.

Gulp. I swallowed my saliva.

I really don’t want to work out, but I still want to look at that butt.

***

Eventually, I followed my older sister to the gym.

It was an area famous for its expensive land prices, with a clear view of the Han River outside the window.

I took the elevator to the 4th floor of a 5-story building.

─Ding dong.

The elevator door opened.

“Huh? Is there no one?”

I thought there would be a lot of customers because it was early in the afternoon on a weekend, but for some reason it was completely empty.

“Did it just open?”

“No.”

“Then why aren’t there any people?”

“Heh heh. Well? Guess.”

My sister looked down at me with a playful smile.

“Hmm… Did you hear that your sister was coming here?”

“What does my coming have to do with there being no one there?”

“Everyone ran away because they were scared.”

“Do you want to die?”

“I’m joking. So what’s the answer?”

“This is my private facility. To be exact, it’s a place I own.”

“Huh? Really? … Hey, you’re lying, right?”

“Can’t you see? There’s only one device per person.”

After listening, I found out that there was only one of each type of exercise equipment.

There’s a treadmill, something that looks like a chin-up bar, and a bench press.

“Wow.. You really have a lot of money.”

I’ve heard of home training, but this is my first time seeing a personal gym.

“What are you surprised about? Don’t you have a lot of money at home? When you come to my house, you come with a driver.”

“I’m somewhat wealthy, but compared to my sister, I’m in a shabby state.”

Is this the dignity of being ranked 2nd in the hero rankings?

Or maybe it was his mother-in-law, who works as a hospital director, who helped him out?

“But why did you build your own personal gym? Is it a dream or something?”

“It was annoying when I went to the gym because everyone recognized me.”

“Ah..”

“And the perverts keep staring at you. They stare at your chest or butt.”

You seem to be the type that is sensitive to gazes. You even noticed me stealing glances at your chest last time.

“Sister. If you feel uncomfortable with other people staring, why don’t you change your outfit?”

“You’re saying the same thing as Sehee. Are you blaming me too?”

“I’m not trying to blame you, but… Your body is so nice, when you wear something like that, as a man, I can’t help but look at you.”

Black leggings that cling tightly to the chest, and a hood that is zipped down to the groin.

Without realizing it, my gaze is drawn to her buttocks and chest.

“I have a lot of body heat, so if I don’t wear this, I’ll die of heat. I’m already sweating, do you want to take a look?”

My older sister walked somewhere and brought back a handkerchief.

He put the handkerchief between his breastbone, wiped it here and there, and then pulled it out.

“Look.”

“… .”

I accepted the handkerchief without saying anything.

It’s moist and fragrant.

Even though I didn’t put my nose up to it, the strong scent of chocolate wafted out.

“Well, it’s up to you what you wear. Who cares if other people look at you or not?”

He put the handkerchief in his pocket.

I’ll have to ask Ravis later if I can use status preservation magic.

“I’m thinking about starting to exercise, but what should I do first?”

I changed the subject for fear that he would ask for my handkerchief back.

“First, you should do some stretching.”

“Can you just do it yourself?”

“If you don’t know, just follow what I do.”

I stood facing my older sister and started stretching.

At first, it was a smooth movement so I could follow it without difficulty.

But as I went on, it became more and more difficult, so I ended up just watching.

“Oh..”

When I saw my sister’s posture, I couldn’t help but be impressed.

A pose where you balance on one leg and lift the other leg straight up.

It was the so-called I-shaped balance posture.

I want to stand next to him and slap him while he’s still in that position.

I want to hug your thick thighs tightly and lick the beads of sweat on your calves.

If that’s the case, I’ll need to put a chair underneath, right? The height difference is too big.

My sister is probably 174cm tall? She’s exactly 1cm taller than Kang Se-hee.

“Hey.”

“… .”

“Kid. Aren’t you going to answer?”

“… Net?”

I was momentarily distracted by the sight of her body.

“I told you to stretch. Why aren’t you doing it?”

“I can’t follow this anymore.”

“Then let’s stop stretching here and get started.”

First we moved on to the bench press.

“Kid. How much do you weigh?”

“Well, I’ve never done it before, so I don’t know.”

“Really? Then should I just listen to the sound first? Lie down.”

I lay on the apparatus and looked up.

My gaze was drawn to my sister’s chest valley.

“Let’s just do ten for now.”

“Yep.”

One. Two. Three. Yes.. Yes.. Yes..

“Ugh..”

I only did six, but my arms were shaking.

“What, you’re already falling? You can’t even fill ten?”

I’m going to work… I’m going to sleep… Ahooo… I’m going to sleep!!

I gritted my teeth and filled up to ten.

A strange sense of accomplishment filled my chest.

“It must be hard to just listen to the bell. It’s really weak.”

“Isn’t the weight of the pole 20 kilos? I think that’s not bad.”

“You’re weak because you can only lift a stick. That’s typical of a kid.”

“… .”

Suddenly, I got up from my seat.

I walked briskly towards the other exercise equipment.

“Hey, where are you going?”

“Let’s go for a treadmill run.”

“You have to watch what I do too.”

“You can do it by yourself.”

Anyway, you don’t have to worry about getting caught. If you feel it’s dangerous, you can just use mana.

Knock, knock, knock, knock…

I did some light jogging on the treadmill.

I didn’t suddenly feel like working out, I just wanted to sweat.

──「Pheromone」──

◆ Blessing

: Seduce the opposite sex with your body odor.

◆ Curse

: The amount of waste secretion increases.

──────

Sweat was pouring out, perhaps because of the curse.

I only ran for about 10 minutes, but my whole body was drenched in sweat.

After sweating enough to satisfy myself, I returned to my sister’s side.

My sister was still lying on the bench press.

“Are you here already?”

She glanced at me, her eyes widening.

“What, I thought you ran a marathon.”

“I also tend to get hot easily.”

Flutter, flutter, flutter…

He grabbed the front of his chest and shook it.

“Huh..!?”

My older sister got up in a hurry and started looking around.

“What are you doing?”

“Wait a minute. Be quiet.”

He looked around as if he was scouting a battlefield, then soon tilted his head.

“What is it?”

“Why are you like that?”

“It definitely smelled. It was strange.”

“What does it smell like?”

“Should I say it’s the smell of the strong..”

My older sister kept tilting her head and looking around.

The reaction is correct. I just tested it briefly, and it works better than I expected.

…

After about an hour, the gym date was over.

“Thanks to you, I had fun working out for the first time in a long time. Thank you. I’ll go now.”

I wanted to achieve my goals and go back feeling good.

“Wait a minute. I have to pay for the gym.”

“… Was it something I had to do?”

“Of course. Where in the world is there such thing as a free lunch?”

“I didn’t bring the money.”

“It’s okay. I won’t accept it in money.”

Shh. She raised the corners of her lips.

“Come home and give me a massage.”

“Oh, of course I’ll do that for you. I’ll definitely do it for you next time you visit.”

“Do it today.”

“Huh? You want me to follow you home again?”

“Don’t worry. The ‘house’ I’m talking about is right upstairs.”

“… ?”

As it turned out, my sister’s house was on the top floor of a five-story building.

Surprisingly, the entire building was owned by my older sister.
