Devouring the Hero's Family

“……Massage?”

Lorein looked at me with doubtful eyes.

It was typical of her to be so wary.

“There’s a massage I learned about during an adventure. It makes the flow of mana feel smoother and improves your condition.”

“…Improves condition?”

She took the bait.

I deliberately spoke vaguely and paused, thinking it would be more effective to pique her curiosity slightly.

“Ah, it’s not like it suddenly powers you up like a buff. It’s more like… you feel a level higher than before.”

“Hmm, can you explain in detail?”

From my experience, if she was asking this much, it was already a 50% success.

“The principle is simple. It’s about loosening up a body that’s become stiff from training to enhance the realm of mana.”

“Is it really effective?”

“It varies depending on the individual. It’s recommended for those who’ve trained hard but haven’t made progress. Usually, it’s similar to a normal massage.”

I finished explaining that even that had an effect on loosening the body.

For someone like Lorein, speaking with certainty would only raise her suspicions.

“…Still, a massage? From you to me?”

“Yes, why not?”

“A man touching a woman’s body. Isn’t that a bit… indecent?”

I burst into laughter.

Lorein frowned slightly.

Of course, she wasn’t really upset.

“What’s this? Are you mocking me?”

“No, that’s not it. How should I put it? You unexpectedly have a lewd side?”

“What, what?! Lewd?”

Her face turned red as she widened her eyes.

She was known for her scholarly nature but probably had never heard such words.

She would have less resistance to such remarks.

“Massage is not always like that. It’s more for therapeutic purposes, releasing mana.”

“Uh, um.”

“Such remarks would be disrespectful to doctors, right?”

“Is that so…”

Lorein seemed to ponder slightly.

My words seemed to have struck at the core of her concerns.

‘Lorein is exactly the type who trains hard but can’t move forward.’

However, her cold personality was a hindrance to agreeing readily.

From her words, it was clear she held a particular sense of chastity.

Perhaps Lorein had never even properly masturbated, let alone had a boyfriend.

At this point, I also subtly backed off.

“How about trying just a shoulder massage for starters?”

“Just the shoulders are effective?”

“It’s much less effective compared to a full-body massage, but you’ll still feel more refreshed.”

“……Alright, if it’s just that much.”

Lorein slowly nodded.

To think she would think so much over just a shoulder massage.

She certainly wasn’t an easy woman.

‘But since she’s agreed to it, it’s almost game over.’

Lorein was the type who would be put off if approached too suddenly.

There was a need to slowly awaken her dormant sexual desire.

People with her personality, once they tasted sex, found it hard to escape from it.

Above all, that was more fun, too.

“Then, please sit down here comfortably.”

I pointed to the fallen tree nearby.

It had broken during a previous training session.

Lately, we have been using it to take breaks in between spars.

“Then, I’m sorry to ask, but please.”

Lorein sat down with a slight apology on her face.

Her naturally exposed white nape stirred my heart.

‘Ah, I can’t wait to see this cold woman writhing in bed.’

But now, everything was ready.

All that was left was to execute the plan step by step.

Succubus’s Touch

Increases excitement and sensitivity with every physical contact with the user.

The Succubus’s Touch I possessed could excite a woman just by touching her.

However, the effect varied depending on the body part.

For example, hands require a long hold, whereas sensitive areas like the chest heat up quickly.

I didn’t think Lorein would allow her body to be freely touched.

So, I took out the next item.

[Item Window]

Name: Pen of Trust and Happiness

Women who got this pen’s ink on them felt a greatly increased sense of trust and comfort, naturally developing a fondness for the protagonist. The patterns drawn on the body could be made invisible to others, if desired.

It was a succubus item that raised trust just by getting ink on the body.

From testing with Amy and Ryuz, they determined that the amount of ink didn’t affect its potency.

The effect was the same whether it was a single letter or full-body scribbling.

‘In other words, as long as it’s judged as ‘inked,’ even a small amount is enough.’

I lightly dabbed the pen on my index finger.

Then, I gently pressed it against Lorein’s nape.

“Huh? Aren’t you starting with the shoulders?”

“The neck is where the nerves connect, so it’s better to relax the head first. Is that okay?”

“Yeah, do as you like. I’m the one asking, after all.”

Lorein closed her eyes without suspicion.

I smiled slyly, seeing the ink on her neck emit a faint light.

“Okay, then I’ll start the massage. Let me know if it hurts.”

I began gently touching her from the white nape, slowly moving my hands.

The motion itself was a normal massage.

But I had the ‘Eyes of the Succubus’ and the ‘Touch of the Succubus.’

I focused on areas that would feel good for Lorein.

“Mm, hmm…”

Lorein let out a faint moan.

Her face, still closed, gradually showed signs of pleasure.

“How is it? It’s good, right?”

“Uh-huh, it feels really great.”

I actually wanted to touch more sensitive areas.

But Lorein wasn’t ready to allow that yet.

‘Of course, that won’t take long either.’

Lorein’s breathing was noticeably rougher.

It was a sign her body was heating up.

Nevertheless, it was just a massage, and she was comfortably enjoying the pleasant feeling.

In fact, it must have been genuinely refreshing.

“Really loosens up the body. Thank you. I would have regretted not getting it.”

“I’m glad it’s effective.”

“Do you need anything? I’ll buy you something as a thank you.”

“That’s okay. I wasn’t expecting anything in return.”

“But I feel too sorry… Um…!”

Lorein looked clearly pleased.

Her psychological guard was lower than usual.

Of course, the effect of the ‘Pen’ made her trust me more.

“Still, it’s a bit regrettable.”

“Huh? Regrettable?”

“As I mentioned before, just the shoulders are less effective. Massaging the back or legs would have been much cooler and would loosen the body better.”

“……”

Lorein seemed momentarily swayed.

My massage felt better than she had imagined.

But in the end, she shook her head.

“…I appreciate the thought, but no. I can’t let a stranger touch my body carelessly.”

“This is just treatment.”

“I know you don’t have ulterior motives.”

Lorein couldn’t see me smirking.

I was indeed driven by pure desire.

“But others might see it as indecent.”

“Hmm… I see. Still, if you change your mind, let me know anytime.”

“Thanks. Uh…?!”

I gave Lorein a scalp massage, pressing down on her head as a finishing touch.

It was out of curiosity, wondering if she could remain composed after this.

‘Anyone would lose their mind after this, regardless of gender.’

However, surprisingly, Lorein didn’t react much.

She stiffened a bit, but her reaction was weaker than expected.

“…Is it over now?”

“Yes, did it feel good?”

“Yes, thanks to you, my body feels much lighter. Thank you.”

Lorein got up and lightly stretched her body.

She looked truly relaxed.

‘What? Was the effect weaker than I expected?’

Feeling slightly disappointed, we parted ways to take a shower.

As I walked down the corridor, I saw Amy.

“Master! You’ve been exercising early, I see.”

“Ah, good timing. Amy, can you come here a moment?”

“Huh? What is it?”

Amy approached with a puzzled look, her cheeks slightly red with anticipation.

Then I pressed down on Amy’s scalp.

“Yikes?! Wha, what… Master… Eek! Wait a moment… Ah…”

Amy’s eyes rolled back as she melted on the spot.

She flailed momentarily, but as I continued to press here and there, she quickly calmed down.

Her limbs went limp, losing strength.

As I pressed down, she offered no resistance and just felt it.

“Ah… Ah…”

Amy lay completely incapacitated, her body weak and trembling, with drool slightly trickling from her mouth.

Her expression looked as if she had been transported to another world, intoxicated.

…I wondered if this reaction was even more intense than sex.

Finally, I stopped pressing her scalp and released Amy.

“Amy, come to your senses.”

“Ah! Master? Where am I?”

Amy, regaining consciousness, looked around in surprise.

It seemed her consciousness had briefly slipped away.

“What was that just now?”

“Just a light scalp massage. Did it feel good?”

“It’s more than just feeling good. It felt like my body was floating, and my consciousness slipping away; it’s hard to describe…”

Amy pondered her words carefully.

“…Like my brain was being invaded?”

“……”

This was an unexpectedly extraordinary choice of words.

After Ryuz’s ‘pussy patting,’ these words were another cultural shock.

I wondered if I was inadvertently creating another masochistic goddess like Lilith under the guise of revenge.

“Anyway, you liked it?”

“Yes, it was amazing. Oh, not that I’m asking for more…just…this is really unfair… Ahh…♥”

Amused by her reaction, I pressed on her head again.

But Lorein didn’t react to this at all.

‘Could it be she’s holding back because she doesn’t want to show embarrassment?’

Her pride was indeed immense.

I wondered how long her haughty attitude would last.

The thought of seeing Lorein desperate for pleasure filled me with anticipation.

“Well, that aside.”

I helped the half-melted Amy to her feet.

“Can I use you for a bit, Amy?”

“Yes, y-yes…”

Amy, usually a bit resistant during her working hours, was in no state to protest.

I immediately took Amy to my room.
