[Erzel Heka]
- Stop reading those lewd comics.
- Does it hurt enough to kill you?
Q. Is womb sex, which you only see in fiction, really possible in reality?
And that was the answer that came back.
For the final verification, Team Leader had casually asked the third party—Erzel herself—and shortly after, she showed me the smartphone screen with that reply.
She usually had an atmosphere just like her close friend Erzel, but right now, she was incredibly hesitant, shrinking back like Neria when she first encountered something lewd.
...I'm not entirely sure, but probably Erzel's behavior as a 'skilled witch' was the easiest reference for her to draw from.
"Huu..."
I'd ask about this story bit by bit later. For now, I pulled my pants back up first.
Because of my dick that was still rock-hard and refusing to go down, it was uncomfortable, but I couldn't keep letting it dangle in the office.
"Even if magic makes it possible, actually doing it would cause big trouble. You get it now, right?"
"...Yes."
"Of course, since it's a witch's body, we can't judge it solely by human standards, but still, don't try it so readily.... And..."
There was so much I wanted to ask, but I had no idea where to start systematically.
As I sat in the chair groaning to myself, right beside me, Team Leader glanced over from where she knelt on the cold office floor.
For the record, she'd been kneeling there on her own for the past five minutes.
I'd clearly tried to stop her, ever since she sent the KakaoTalk to Erzel.
Just moments ago, she could at least claim it was unavoidable to sneak a stroke on my dick in secret, but now she was kneeling like she was receiving punishment.
Meanwhile, she'd ordered me to sit comfortably in the chair—like hell it was comfortable; it felt like sitting on a bed of nails.
...Sitting on a bed of nails, with a brilliant woman like Team Leader kneeling obediently at my side like some act of submission.
It gave me a bit of a strange feeling.
"......"
Anyway, it made sense to start by asking why this incident had happened in the first place.
"Team Leader, why have you been pretending to be so experienced all this time?"
"B-Because if the Rehabilitation Support Department Team Leader had no experience, it'd seem weird...!"
As expected.
I'd vaguely guessed as much during my conversation with Erzel.
"Plus, I'm the same generation as Erzel.... When she's had thousands of experiences, wouldn't it naturally be embarrassing if I was still so inexperienced...?"
"Thousands..., no, forget that—how did things end up like this? With your looks, Team Leader, the men courting you first could easily fill an entire apartment complex."
"......Th-that's a bit embarrassing for me to say myself..."
"If it's hard to talk about, you don't have to force it."
Erzel Official had said Eve Team Leader was an even bigger scaredy-cat than Neria.
Lots of interest in lewd things, but too scared to actually do them.
Plus, back in her day, there was no Rehabilitation Support Department to help.
So she'd been scraping by, using mana in tiny bits.
I'd gotten the rough idea, so no need to spell it out.
"No. I'll tell you. Dowon-ssi is my colleague now.... I can't keep hiding even this."
But Team Leader fidgeted with her clasped fingers, hesitating shyly.
After a brief silence, she spoke in a barely audible voice.
"The truth is, I thought I was, um, ......a genius..."
"A genius?"
"Like infinite mana all by myself, or something.... S-Sounds like a webnovel title, huh? Ahaha..."
"...So from the start, with so much mana, you figured you didn't need recharges."
"Exactly. That's the first reason.... The second is, I still have plenty of mana left, so it didn't feel urgent..."
"......"
"The biggest reason is, well, I completely missed the timing for my first experience?"
"Yes."
"So since I was doing it late anyway, I got greedy for a really, really good first experience..."
"......"
"That erotic story just now? It's pretty much me imagining all sorts of situations..."
I'm not a witch, so it was hard to empathize fully, but I got the gist.
Easy to compare to hunger, like last time.
Not particularly hungry, so do I really need to eat?
And if I do eat, I want to try the absolute best.
Having understood, I nodded and straightened my posture a bit more properly.
...Because Team Leader was still kneeling on the floor.
I couldn't help being hyper-aware of it.
"In summary, Team Leader's in pretty much the same boat as Neria."
"R-Really? If we nitpick...?"
Of course, nitpicking aside, Team Leader was far more innocent than Neria.
Neria was basically sweet-natured but hostile to sex itself— it had taken quite a while from our first meeting to persuade her and actually insert.
From the Rehabilitation Support Department's perspective, Team Leader—with her massive interest in lewd stuff—was several times easier to deal with.
Though for her 'perfect good first experience,' the required conditions were pretty strict...
"......"
Wait a second.
Come to think of it, I'd heard before that the person who selected me for the Rehabilitation Support Department was...
"Team Leader. Just to be sure, I have something I want to ask."
"...Whether the witch who brought you into the Rehabilitation Support Department wasn't me...?"
"...Yes."
It was Team Leader.
Quick on the uptake as always, she answered before I finished the question, then averted her gaze diagonally as she added the rest.
"Just in case.... I always try to reflect my tastes as much as possible when selecting people..."
I'd heard it before, but put another way, it meant total nepotism hire.
"But even so, in terms of personality, attitude, even down to voice or little habits, they were always somehow lacking... But this time, Dowon-ssi handled the first apprentice witch without any issues..."
"......"
"...And you're completely my type..., so..."
And this? Office romance fits perfectly.
"......"
"......"
A two-person department with a nepotism hire and office romance to boot.
Wonder what people around would think.
Team Leader's voice snapped me out of my idle thoughts.
"No way it's the opposite—from your tastes, I'm way off the mark... or something?"
"No. I think you're a wonderful Team Leader."
"......Rationally speaking?"
"...Um..."
"You can be honest. Honestly."
"......A witch so pretty it's hard to look at her directly, something like that."
"...Really?"
"Yes."
"Not bad at all.... Phew.... I was so nervous you'd think of me as some annoying, irritating girl..."
"...No way."
I wasn't sure about irritating, but I'd thought she was troublesome once.
When she said she'd buy me meat if I came out.
Just that one time, though.
But Eve Team Leader and witches in general were an endangered species.
"I've heard that if a woman is that pretty, men feel intense sexual desire. Is that true?"
"Well..., ...experientially, yeah."
"Aha. Then..."
Pretty enough to melt anger that wasn't even there.
Even now, seeing her breasts straining against the blouse, it felt weird to be mad.
And the dick she'd clumsily stroked earlier was still trapped, frustratingly unfulfilled.
"...How about now?"
"......"
"That intense sexual desire. ...Are you feeling it?"
What if we went for round two right here?
Actually do it in the office for real?
I glanced briefly at the window in the door once more.
— Vrrr...
"......"
"......"
A vibration sound came from a smartphone on the desk, cutting off the conversation like a bucket of cold water.
"...I-I'll check it."
She said she'd check, but Team Leader's smartphone was in her pocket.
I'd seen her put it there herself after messaging Erzel.
So it had to be mine.
Sure enough, my smartphone was the mood-ruiner, so I hurriedly picked it up and looked at the screen.
"......"
The name on the display was none other than Neria Heka.
Team Leader craned her neck to peek at the screen, then finally stood up with a groan, stretching her arms.
Whether she'd given up entirely or was just shooing me to hurry and answer, she made a waving gesture.
...Yeah. Maybe this was for the best.
Whatever happened with Team Leader could wait for home or somewhere safer than here.
Embarrassed at myself for having seriously considered going through with it, I dry-washed my face to pull myself together and answered Neria's call before the vibration dragged on.
"...Hello?"
- Hey. Nam Dowon. Why'd it take so long to pick up?
"Sorry. I was in a situation where I couldn't answer right away..."
- Fine, whatever. Where are you right now?
"Right now..."
I could've just said the office, no problem.
But feeling a bit guilty, I hesitated for a second.
"The office. Rehabilitation Support Department office."
- Is that close to our house?
"Not right next door, but close enough to go back and forth quickly."
- Huh. Is that right? Then..., ah, damn it...
Neria flared up briefly, like she'd been hit by some debuff item.
Her voice came through the smartphone.
- Get back here and go to work.
"...Pardon?"
- You didn't do jack today, just hung out with my Master and freeloading. Plus, you have work to do, so get back here.
"But Neria-nim, didn't you say earlier you had some weird muscle pain...?"
- That's my waist and legs. You're not the one hurting, right?
"True, but..., anyway, what work do I have to do?"
- Come be my chair for a bit before you go. Without it, the back pain's killing me.
"...Understood......?"
- Hm? What?
"Ah, nothing."
And on the laptop right in front of me,
「About that promise earlier—licking and sucking my breasts? Let's do it next time.」
With those words, the laptop snapped shut.
