Chapter Title: Doctor Gam Deok-bae (23)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Even now, thinking back on that day filled him with rage...
But it was time to accept it. What doctor in this world would fall ill in place of their patient? Dirk Luin, who sacrificed himself to heal his little sister, was a true physician. That was an undeniable fact.
But even so... that day's treatment...
"Damn it," Sirius spat out a curse.
The scene from that day naturally resurfaced in his mind. Iris, who had been nothing but a naive child, had blossomed into a precociously beautiful woman. Her eyes glistened with moisture, and her breasts fit perfectly in his hands. Iris, in the midst of puberty, was no longer a girl. Her slender waist and curvaceous hips. The once angular lines of his little sister had softened into the alluring form of a woman.
And Iris's place down there...
Drenched in sweat—no, slick with something else entirely...
It was ready to welcome a man inside.
"Nngh, haa... I can feel it... I can feel you, Lord Luin... Ahh... Lord Luin!"
The moment Dirk Luin mounted her, his little sister's pussy gushed with fluids. Sirius, who had witnessed Iris's forbidden sex organ—something he should never have seen—had been overwhelmed by an unbearable despair that day. Every time the doctor's cock grazed it, her folds twitched hungrily, craving him... Sirius had swallowed back tears of emptiness.
How had she become so lewd!
"Lord Luin... Nn, chuup, chup... Haa, kiss... Nngh, churuup..."
She embraced the naked doctor, kissing him passionately, then rocked her hips to feel his cock. The heartbreaking fall of his once purest sister. Sirius wanted to kill Dirk Luin for causing it. He wanted to hold him accountable, punish him somehow.
To turn the sister he had raised in place of their parents into such a wanton woman!
He could never... never forgive that bastard.
Sirius had sworn revenge.
"You sacrificed yourself for me! But... Big Brother doesn't even know that, and he gets angry! He yells! He curses! Sniff... How could you do that?!"
Yet Dirk Luin wasn't the worthless scum Sirius had imagined.
After curing his sister through somewhat impure methods, Dirk Luin fell ill in her place. Back to square one, he proved himself a true doctor. In contrast, the most repulsive person in that situation... was Sirius himself. The one who got aroused seeing his sister's naked body.
"Pervert... Big Brother, were you lusting after your own sister like some pervert?"
"What?! N-No, that's not it!"
"But you... you got hard! It's disgusting... revolting, the worst!"
His own actions were truly nauseating, even to him.
Plagued by self-loathing, Sirius reflected once more on that day. No matter how much Dirk Luin's treatment crossed the line... it wasn't as bad as getting erect at the sight of Iris. Setting aside that she was his sister, Iris's appearance had been utterly captivating. He'd excused it as a physiological reaction... but that day, Sirius had lusted after her.
His sister's lips, her collarbone, her legs.
His sister's... Iris's pussy.
So pristine and soft-looking.
Aaah... Sirius bit his lip. Why was he getting aroused again in the middle of reflecting? Uncontrollably excited, he flung open the window and downed some wine. His bulging pants reflected in the glass, tormenting him. No matter how much he tried not to think of it, his sister's lewd images flooded back. Sirius hurled the wine glass, shattering it.
"Haaa... Damn it all!"
Was he that pent up?
He'd considered backing off and seeking out easy women... but changed his mind. What he needed right now wasn't a hole to fuck. Instead, he decided to meet Chloe for a drink. They were still just friends... but that was fine. Chloe was like a healing potion to him.
"Whaaat, really?! Waaah... That's awesome!"
"It's cl-close, I said!"
"Gotta be close to celebrate! So you're all healthy now? Right?"
"Yeah... Phew, finally... finally healthy..."
-Slap!
"Eek!"
"You idiot! It's good news, why look so down?! Party! Let's have a party!"
"Party?"
"Yeah! A full recovery celebration party! That's how you'll be even happier!"
As expected, Chloe was Chloe. Even showing up late at night, she welcomed him without a hint of annoyance, and upon hearing about Iris, she was overjoyed more than anyone. Chloe's pure reaction soothed Sirius's bitter mood. No matter when they talked, she always put him at ease like this. Sirius regained his smile.
"That's a good idea."
-Creak!
"Party? Did you say party just now?"
"...Uninvited guests get lost?"
-Crack!
"Gahk!"
"You're asking for it?"
"L-Lady Serphin! That was too hard!"
And beside Chloe was always Serphin, who treated him like a nephew. Thanks to her, meeting Chloe always turned rowdy and fun. Their age gap wasn't huge... but she was a reliable adult, and their bond was closer than friends yet not quite love. The two of them pulled Sirius from his self-loathing.
"I was worried something big happened..."
"Ah... Sorry, you came by, right? I was out of it then, couldn't even host you properly."
"Something did happen, huh?"
"Sigh... Iris collapsed."
"Whaaat?! But you just said she's cured!"
"W-Wait a sec! I'll explain, so don't cling!"
Serphin listened calmly, while Chloe flailed about in confusion. Once Sirius finished, they clapped. He'd kept Dirk Luin's sacrifice a secret... but it was still plenty intriguing for them.
"Whoa, so he treated your sister until she was exhausted?"
"Dirk Luin, was it? Not bad."
"...Anyway, she'll stay with our family until she's fully recovered."
"Heh... I see. Living at your place, Sirius?"
"Wha, only until recovery..."
"Hmm... Can I go visit then?"
"Huh? That guy?"
"...N-No, no! Your little sister! For the party!"
"Party, huh... Yeah, when's good for everyone?"
He hadn't thought much at first... but with Iris needing to start socializing soon, a small party wasn't a bad idea. And so, Sirius decided to hold the party. He also planned to invite Lucius this time.
Inviting the prince to my home would make me look different. They're bound to meet eventually anyway... It'd boost Chloe's favor too, and setting it up now was smart. Plus, Lucius could be Iris's first love. This party might just shatter the curse weighing on her.
With a whoosh, he swung his sword to flick off the blood coating the blade. Black mages that never seemed to end, no matter how many he killed. This cleanup would quiet things down again... but Lucius knew better than anyone it wouldn't last. He let out a deep sigh.
When exhaustion like this hit, memories of that day inevitably surfaced.
The girl who shone as brightly as the sun gave him renewed strength.
Her warm, affectionate voice... soothing his wounds. The nameless girl he longed to meet again, to feel that comfort once more. A thought the usual Lucius would never entertain. But pushed to his limits, he was vulnerable. Even the iron-blooded Lucius needed a sanctuary for his heart. He was at his wit's end.
-Thud thud thud!
"Die!"
-Slash!
Unfortunately, he had no time to rest.
After dispatching the hidden remnants, Lucius called his subordinates to handle cleanup. Feeling unusually drained today, he skipped the palace and headed to the knight barracks for sleep. He hated wasting time on trivial matters. With early duties tomorrow, every minute counted. Still in his armor, he lay on the bed.
-Thud thud!
But an oblivious subordinate disturbed his rest.
"Whoa, Your Highness! Urgent news!"
"...What is it?"
"A letter from the Lehinar House!"
Up to his tricks again.
His friend sending a letter under the guise of urgency. With the Lehinar seal, it'd reach him in days anyway—what was so pressing? Dismissing the subordinate, Lucius read it. Casual greetings and worldly updates. Decoding the cipher revealed Iris's full recovery. A truly urgent bulletin for once.
No more reason for Sirius to be tied to the capital.
News that eased his fatigue.
"...Hm?"
But the letter didn't end there.
Sirius planning a recovery celebration party. "Attend or lose your only friend," it demanded... Haa, more jokes. Lucius sighed repeatedly and burned the letter. He planned to ignore the silly banter as usual.
"..."
Only... the doctor who cured Iris stuck with him.
A physician who solved a disease baffling the royal court... Maybe he could fix my headaches too. Hah, must be more worn out than I thought. A weak notion born of frailty. Clicking his tongue, he adjusted his schedule. Joke or not, he'd see them anyway... Lucius called a subordinate. Relay "Understood," then closed his eyes.
