NOVEL NEXT Chapter 64
I struggled to suppress the urge to jump into the water and instead walked over to hand over the swimsuit. Serin took the swimsuit from me, unusually blushing, and immediately plunged her hands into the water.
To summarize the situation, it felt like a beautiful female swordsman was in front of me wearing panties. Of course, she was in the water, so I couldn’t see anything, but it certainly felt very suggestive.
“What are you doing? Come closer right now.”
“What? You want me to come closer?”
Why?
“Your master is wearing clothes; shouldn’t you cover her? I don’t understand why you’re just standing there. Hurry up and block me with your body.”
“Uh, yes!”
If it’s my master’s orders, I must obey immediately.
– *Wham!*
I closed the distance to Serin and spread my body to shield her. The only one watching was Hayoung, but hey, a shield is necessary.
“Whoa. That was a shock. To suddenly have my swimsuit come off… I need to be more careful from now on.”
“Yeah. Be careful. I was surprised too.”
It feels awkward to look at her face.
“Hehe, are you embarrassed?”
“Well, that’s…”
“It’s fine since you can’t see me in the water. Don’t worry about it.”
“I can’t not worry…”
“Sigh. Just swim.”
– *Splash!*
Serin pushed me down and started swimming again. Hayoung, watching us, smiled wickedly and said, “Hey! If my talisman floats away, go fetch it!”
“Are you kidding?! Just be careful it doesn’t tear!”
“It’s waterproof, so it won’t tear!”
“Waterproof?!”
“Do you want to touch it?”
“Really?!”
I want to touch it…!
But it’s in front of Serin! I can’t do that!
“Hahaha! What are you saying?! I’m obviously joking!”
She’s teasing me!
“How can you keep falling for it? You idiot!”
“No, wait!”
And just like that, Hayoung splashed water as she ran off, and I tried my best to catch up with her in a freestyle swim.
So, that’s how we enjoyed the water play.
*
After swimming, we entered a nearby cave and lit a campfire to rest. Being tucked away in the cave with the fire going, it truly felt like we were on an outing.
The problem though is that everyone was only wearing swimsuits.
“…”
Not just Serin in her bra and strap panties, but also Hayoung wearing nothing but three talismans.
Both of them had such great bodies I had no place to look. At least most of their snowy skin was exposed, but both of them had ample bosoms and backsides that were simply too stunning.
So, I had no choice but to sit awkwardly in front of the campfire, suppressing my desires.
“Ah, it’s warm.”
As Hayoung leaned toward the fire, her large breasts swayed… But how can they be so perky with gravity working against them? The shape of her round breasts was truly beautiful.
“Hayoung. Aren’t you worried about burning your talismans?”
“What do you mean?”
“Geunhyeop. What the heck are you looking at? Turn your gaze away immediately.”
“Oops.”
“What’s the big deal? We just swam, so what’s the problem? Hey, want me to get a closer look?”
With Hayoung’s suggestive teasing, my eyes started to wander…!
“Go!”
But Serin suddenly made a sound and grabbed my face.
“As your master, I can’t just stand by while my disciple is sending lewd glances at women. Look this way instead.”
“Is it okay on this side?!”
“Of course. This is better.”
“Ugh…!”
With Serin holding my face steady with both hands, my gaze ended up locked on her cleavage. Although not as deep as Hayoung’s, it was still ample enough to be quite tempting. How can she move so well with those?
In any case, I had no choice but to wrap a towel around my waist to hide my condition.
“Hehe, you’re really overprotective. Do you really like her? The Jade Flower Sword?”
“She is a dear friend and my first disciple. So, she’s very precious to me. So please stop playing pranks on Geunhyeop.”
“Hey, I’m a friend too! How about you stop throwing around the ‘disciple’ nonsense?”
Once again, they seemed to be getting into a fight.
“Hey guys. Can we not fight while trying to rest? Let’s just recover our stamina near the fire.”
“Recover stamina?”
“Yeah. Recover stamina.”
“You don’t look like you need to recover stamina at all.”
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
“Well, you say that, sigh!”
“Ugh!”
Suddenly, Hayoung snatched my towel!
– *Swish!*
With that, my lower half, which was hidden beneath the towel, was revealed. To be fair, I was still wearing martial arts underwear, so it wasn’t full exposure, but it was clear that I pitched a tent underneath.
“What are you doing?! Give it back!”
“Hahaha! Look at this! He’s standing straight up! This guy has too much energy!”
“St-straight up?!”
Embarrassed, I quickly covered myself, and Serin said, “Hmph, it’s fine, Geunhyeop. As I said, a man’s vigor is a good thing… But that is, can you control it?”
“That’s…!”
It should be controllable!
No, it’s just not!
But since I couldn’t say that, I tried to come up with an excuse.
“Actually, ever since I ingested the Madunachal’s essence, my vigor has been… increased? So it just keeps going like this.”
“Really? Is that true?”
“What? The Madunachal’s essence is the reason? Let me see.”
“What do you want to see?!”
“Wait a minute. If your vigor increased because of the essence, then maybe it has properties that enhance male energy. It’s possible that the Madunachal’s essence has the same effect.”
Hayoung was saying this with a seriously curious expression, not a teasing one. It felt like she was genuinely researching.
“Is that so?”
“Yeah, so just move your hand away.”
“…”
I hesitated, then moved my hand away.
“Well, I feel like I need to take a look at the area directly.”
“W-What?! Are you going to strip Geunhyeop?!”
“I have no choice. I need to examine it.”
Are you kidding me?! Are you really serious?!
“Hey, just strip. Don’t be embarrassed. It’s necessary for the examination.”
“But—!”
“As a woman, wouldn’t I be even more embarrassed?”
“Damn it!”
I had no choice!
– *Swoosh.*
I slowly pulled down my underwear in front of everyone. The sheer embarrassment and shame felt overwhelming. Just revealing that I was hard was, well, an experience.
“…Oh my.”
“Oh my.”
Serin and Hayoung gasped, covering their mouths as they gazed at me, eyes wide and faces flushed. I couldn’t comprehend this situation. What the heck is happening?!
Pulling down my underwear in front of two women!
“W-would it be okay to touch…?”
“Of course not!”
As soon as Hayoung spoke cautiously, Serin shouted in shock. Thank goodness for that. At least it spared me some of my embarrassment.
“Why are you shouting all of a sudden? Well then, I guess I’ll need to examine it with my eyes.”
“Don’t even think about doing anything weird. I’ll supervise from the side.”
I just wished this time would pass quickly while I kept my eyes closed. Even during this, my condition only grew more intense.
“I can feel that the energy has definitely shifted downward. But I don’t feel anything odd. It seems like the Madunachal’s essence indeed boosted my vigor.”
“Can I put my clothes on now?”
“Well, how long are you planning to leave that out? Hurry up and put it on!”
“Ugh!”
I immediately put my underwear back on!
“I’m relieved that there’s no apparent issue, Geunhyeop.”
“Serin, I’m so embarrassed…!”
As I whined and knelt down, Serin hugged me.
“It’s fine. The Fiery Lotus just examined you, and even though I’m a woman, I’m still your master. There’s no reason to feel ashamed of revealing your private parts to your master.”
Her voice was incredibly gentle as she patted my back. It was truly maternal, reminding me of an aunt.
“That being said, does it happen often?”
“To be honest…”
“I see. That certainly sounds difficult. It must be quite uncomfortable. Right?”
“It is uncomfortable.”
Really uncomfortable, in fact.
“Oh dear. As a woman, I have no idea how to help you.”
While continuing to pat my back, Serin gently slid her hand across my cheek, then gave a mysteriously amused smile.
“If you ever need help, would you consult with me? If I can help, I will.”
What?!
“No, what do you mean by help?!”
“As your disciple suffers, it’s only natural to offer help. If there’s anything I can do, just let me know.”
“Ohhh!”
What do you mean by ‘anything’?!
Could it be… that kind of help?!
“Helping? What do you mean helping? She seems to handle it herself.”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, the last time I saw, one of my talismans was spent? Huh? Didn’t you handle it?”
When Hayoung joked around, I felt my heart sink. My body was covered in goosebumps, and dread washed over me.
“Spent a talisman?! What do you mean?!”
“It’s a thing, you know. Hehe. So funny. You resolved it with that? Did you wrap it up and go at it? That would definitely work! Hahaha!”
As I trembled with shame, the two women only made things worse by teasing me as I hurried to get dressed.
Finally, I was free from the flesh-colored banquet.
Just as I started to feel relieved.
– *Shh…*
I suddenly sensed something ominous in the air.
– *Thud thud.*
Sounded like footsteps were headed our way.
“Whoa!”
Serin and the sword next to her, along with Hayoung who held onto her stone tablet, sprang to their feet. I too quickly gripped the Heavenly Thunder Sword and stood up.
“Kiheehee!”
“Here! This way!”
“This is it!”
Green skin. Hideous balding hair. The torn eyes looked almost feline, and that massive beak looked akin to a bird’s.
But it was neither cat nor bird.
It resembled a toad more closely. Especially with that wrinkled skin and webbed hands. Yet astonishingly, the creature’s back bore the shell of a tortoise.
Such bizarre beings stepped into the cave with two feet.
“Hadong!”
That’s right.
These creatures are our targets, the Hadong!
“Kiheehee! It’s real! There are women! Beautiful women!”
“Big breasts and big butts!”
“I want those girls to be our hole slaves! Kiheehee!”
“Let’s capture them! Let’s capture them! Kiheehee!”
“New brides for us!”
“Let’s mate! Kiihhh!”
What insane freaking maniacs!
