Chapter Title: I'll Let You Summon Both
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"I'll... let you summon both?"
Her eyes widen, her moist lips slowly parting.
Even her surprised face is this pretty? That's not fair.
'You're planning to pass on your ability, huh?'
'I've confirmed that passing on Yin Energy strengthens weapons. I'm curious how it works with summons or magic. If this goes well, I can give Sylph even tastier Yin Energy. Win-win for both of us, right?'
'Hmmm, you sure know how to sweet-talk. In that case, no reason not to lend it. But you gotta draw out something delicious for me. I'm a bit of a gourmet, you know?'
Even while giving permission, it didn't forget to lay out the caveats.
'I'm not like that old geezer. I like humans who put in the effort. Sharpening yourself to surpass your limits? That's so cool. I've even lent her my power sometimes because of that.'
'Then lend it to her. She's begging for it like that.'
'She's not yet a vessel that can hold me. No need to shatter such a finely polished gem out of greed.'
Just as swordsmen and warriors manifest aura, mages and summoners wield mana.
Since mana resides in the body, it's often likened to a vessel.
Inside gates, they use the aura and mana that awaken to battle monsters.
Summoning a greater spirit naturally requires a vast amount of mana.
Listening to Sylph, it seemed even top-tier summoners like Oh Yeonseo struggled with great spirits.
'Too bad. Her mana capacity is decent enough, but the vessel's too narrow. Maybe because she hasn't tasted a man yet?'
Huh? Why describe the vessel as narrow?
Shouldn't vessels be big or small?
Is it cylindrical or something?
'Is it that dangerous? Should I not do it?'
'If you're gonna chicken out, you shouldn't have brought it up in the first place. I'm curious about the taste of your Yin Energy filtered through her body. I can't stand not knowing things.'
I wasn't sure if I'd stirred up trouble unnecessarily.
A sticky desire lingered in the breeze that brushed over my body.
Too late to back out now.
'Don't worry too much. Even if a crack forms in her, your Yin Energy can more than fill it. But whether the crack appears in her body or her mind... who knows? You'll have to patch it up yourself.'
'Wait! You have to tell me how! How do I patch it up?'
'Just adjust the amount, and when you feel the crack, gently caress the gap like a lover... Wait, you don't even know how to control it?'
'No, I don't.'
Who was supposed to teach me?
'Why is the Gate so irresponsible? Let me see...'
A chill ran through me, as if someone was peering into my very soul.
'The last skill hasn't unlocked yet. Injecting Yin Energy like this could've been disastrous. Guess there's a reason you met me here. Why dump this on me? Sheesh.'
I couldn't tell who it was grumbling to, but Sylph was complaining.
It must be annoyed at having to clean up my mess.
"Ha-eut!"
A pained cry escaped me involuntarily.
It felt like all the blood in my body rushed to my groin in an instant.
My head spun like I had anemia, and the throbbing pain felt like it might burst.
"Are you okay?"
As my legs wobbled, Oh Yeonseo approached with a worried face.
'Coming now, she'll see it.'
Sure enough, her gaze dropped, and she flinched back.
That's why I said don't come.
"I'm fine... stay there. It'll be over soon."
I didn't know what would be over, but I told her not to come closer anyway.
The aching eased gradually as the blood that had pooled returned to normal.
'There. Open your status window.'
Following Sylph's words, I summoned the status window in my mind.
Unique Skills:
— Infinite Yin Energy
— Climactic Yin Energy
— Materialized Yin Energy
— Ascending Yin Energy
— Suturing Yin Energy (NEW)
The final skill that had been hidden was now unlocked.
It said more would be added below, but for now, this was the last in the list.
It warned not to expect much since it was a harsh skill, but the name seemed pretty normal.
'Suturing... what does this do?'
'You don't know suturing?'
It's one of the medical procedures for stitching up torn wounds with thread.
Does it mean healing wounds with Yin Energy?
'You love virgins so much, and now you've got a skill like this. Use it well to give the girls pleasure.'
'Why so slow? The water's surging again. Sweep it away quick.'
Gnome urged me on in its thick voice.
Looking back, water jets were sprouting from spots in the mud-filled floor.
No more time to waste.
I approached Oh Yeonseo and grabbed her hand firmly.
"Ha-eut!"
A moan burst out in less than five seconds.
As Sylph said, I couldn't control the amount or speed.
All I could do was feel it being sucked out and mentally beg it to go slower, just a bit slower.
A hazy aura rose from her grasped hand.
Like with Han Chaewon, it shifted from white to yellow, the color deepening.
"Heu-eut, ha-ang... S-slow down... just a little..."
If I were on top, it'd be perfect for misunderstanding.
Still, unlike Han Chaewon, she didn't cling desperately; she fought to hold back.
Her thighs rubbed together, trembling violently—it was dizzying even to me.
Her cheeks flushed back and forth between ripe peach and apricot hues, utterly alluring.
'Shall we go in?'
The breeze grazed my cheek before enveloping Oh Yeonseo's body.
Everything was still, yet only her hair whipped wildly.
"Ha-euk, eu-uuu... Kyaaah!!"
Her back arched to a degree that made me wonder if it was okay.
As her balance crumbled, I quickly pulled her into my arms.
In that instant, an immense light erupted from her chest, swallowing us both.
'What are you doing? You need to pour in more to fill it.'
The light was too intense to open my eyes, but I could sense the crack.
It started like a thin thread, widening gradually to reveal darkness.
Her ecstatic moans turned to cries of pain as she writhed in my arms.
"Ha-euk, keu-uuuuk... P-please..."
Her pitiful voice tore at my heart.
With eyes shut, I glared at the crack and gathered all my energy there.
The thin line at the bottom began to seal bit by bit, but it was nowhere near enough to reach the gaping upper part.
Groaning, I pulled every ounce of strength from my body, but the speed wouldn't pick up.
'Hmmm, this isn't good. What to do... Nah, won't work. Lower your head a bit.'
I bowed my head as Sylph instructed, and something soft touched my lips.
Even the slight brush spread a sweet, sugary taste across my mouth—like pure art.
'Know what women are made of?'
What was that, like a bulldog smoothing its wrinkles?
'Sweet sugar and spicy spices, plus all sorts of fragrant things. That's why they can be endlessly sweet one moment and fiercely spicy the next. Be careful when it's spicy—it'll addict you till you lose your mind.'
No need to wait for the spicy part.
This sweetness was addictive already.
'It's still sweet now. Suck it deep, then blow your Yin Energy all the way in. That'll seal the gap perfectly.'
'Even gathering all my power isn't enough.'
'Giving up so easily? A kid with the makings of a sinful man like you, whining weakly? The girl you're gonna love is dying— that okay with you?'
Lightning struck in my mind.
Love? Dying? Because of me?
Tangled emotions made my heart race wildly.
Blood surged on its own, as if it might burst from my mouth.
Amid it all, the taste on my lips remained sweetly tempting.
'Eu-eo, eu-uuu... Uwaaaah—!!'
A silent scream rose far away, to some unseen place.
Moments later, newfound momentum plunged back down at terrifying speed.
An energy incomparable to the ascent poured into my head, piercing my entire body.
Hearing her scream, I knew I wasn't the only one feeling it.
Oh Yeonseo, cradled in my arms, climaxed as if every joint in her body was twisted.
"Haa, haa..."
Drenched in sweat, Oh Yeonseo pulled away from me with a fearful expression.
"Chaewon lied..."
"Lied?"
"She said it'd feel good... but this is way beyond good!"
Ah, that's what she meant.
"You were suffering in the middle."
"It hurt for a moment, but after you held me, and our lips... it vanished like a lie. No, all the pain turned into pure pleasure!!"
So that's why she climaxed.
The sweetness I tasted was from Oh Yeonseo's lips.
Knowing that, I should've slipped my tongue in.
A faintly glowing pattern appeared on the back of Oh Yeonseo's hand.
Different from the Gnome's mark on me.
'That's my mark. If you contract with me, you'll get one too.'
'Did you contract with Yeonseo first?'
'I'll only contract with you. That's just a sign I'll answer her call. Gotta give her something visible to be happy about, right?'
A sort of fan service.
"Yeonseo, look at the back of your hand."
Her eyes widened at the faintly glowing mark.
"Th-this..."
"It's the mark of the Great Wind Spirit, Sylph. Today, it'll answer your call. You've only been summoning Ariel until now, right? Try calling a great spirit."
"How... how did I get this? Woojin, did you...?"
"Yeah, not just Gnome—I contracted with Sylph too. Stick with me, and I'll let you summon both."
I haven't actually contracted yet, but bragging a little should be fine.
