"Then I'll be in your care."
"You got it, leave it to me!"
Whew, starting right away from today. She must have been pretty upset.
I sent word to Sophia through the mansion's servant that I'd be late, then headed to the drawing room where Louise was waiting.
It was late, and I was tired too. I'd been planning to head back to the dorm and spend some sweet time with Sophia, but thanks to Louise's burning enthusiasm, we decided to start the lessons right now.
Hard to turn down when I'm getting paid such a huge sum I never even dreamed of. Even if it was free... ahem...
-Knock knock!
"May I come in?"
"Come on in."
As I opened the door and stepped inside, Louise was waiting with a hint of tension on her face. The complete opposite of how she was during our sparring this afternoon. Showing this much gap moe in a single day—truly a heroine.
And sometime she'd changed into tight-fitting clothes that clung to her body, perfectly outlining her voluptuous figure. Is this everyday wear too? Her fashion sense is totally my type.
"Ahem! Tell me quickly—how can I get close to him?"
Whoa, so impatient.
The moment I sat down, Louise urgently demanded answers from me. She must be desperate to resolve this frustration as soon as possible. Since I felt the same, I decided not to beat around the bush and give her some straight talk.
"Hmm... Before I give you the answer, is it okay if I speak frankly?"
"By all means! That's exactly what I want."
"In that case, I'll be direct. Lady Louise, why are your eyes so wide open?"
"...Huh?"
"Do you even want to get close to him? With that stiff expression every time, how could you? Don't you think he'd go, 'Ah, she hates me'?"
"That's...!"
Truth is, I have no idea how to get close to someone. If I did, I'd have used it ages ago.
This is fact-bombing disguised as a lesson. Louise won't change unless I lay it out like this—she'd stay the same forever. For everyone's sake, I had to steel myself and speak plainly.
Stop making excuses and own up to your feelings. A woman honest with herself is attractive. Haven't you seen tsunderes go out of style?
"You keep forcing that stern face, but it just relaxes anyway! ...Ah!"
"Oh ho, so Lady Louise does have feelings for Siwoo after all?"
"...That's not it—I said it's to get close to him."
Again, excuses!
I was getting annoyed, but looking at Louise's chest calmed me down.
"Lady Louise. Having feelings for the opposite sex is as natural as a three-year-old doing it. Nothing to be ashamed of."
"Hmm..."
"Besides, you're a knight, aren't you? Would a knight turn her back on the enemy right in front of her? Face him head-on with confidence!"
"...You're right about that."
She really is a perfect match for Siwoo. Only understands when you bring up knights as an example.
Louise kept her head down, forcing excuses, but when I mentioned knights, she finally admitted her folly.
Hmm... But seeing her so dejected makes me feel like the bad guy. Is this gaslighting? I'm the one scolding, yet I feel guilty. Louise, you scary woman...
"Admit it honestly, and I'll tell you how to win Siwoo's heart."
"R-Really?"
"No one knows Siwoo better than I do. Trust me."
"Hmph... Fine, I'll be honest then. As you suspected, I might have feelings for him."
Jackpot. Even after I set the stage this much, she's still pretending not to know her own heart by saying "might." Wait, no—maybe she really doesn't know.
Louise is surely a virgin, and Siwoo her first love. A woman who's swung a sword her whole life like him could well be confused by her first crush. Yeah, highly likely.
In that case... the solution for Louise is this.
"Then don't hide those feelings."
"What? What do you mean?"
"Don't force that stern face. Show Siwoo the relaxed, gooey expression you get around him. Let him know you're aware of him."
"Th-That... won't Siwoo think I'm weird?"
"The opposite. He'll love it. I keep telling you—he brings you up every day. Once he knows it's not one-sided, he'll show a different side too."
Even if he's addicted to sex and hits the brothel daily, that's physical pleasure, not emotional. Siwoo must still be weak to a woman's affection.
If Louise takes the initiative, Siwoo can't help but notice her. Get them to that point, and those two heating up will become lovers in no time.
Hmm... Perfect. This consulting is worth every coin—no regrets.
"Alright! I'll try it your way!"
"Um... Lady Louise? Are you feeling unwell? If you're not up for it, we can end training here. I'll head out first then."
"......"
"......"
Failure. Total failure.
I messed up big time. Being honest with your feelings doesn't solve everything.
Louise wore a bizarre expression neither a smile nor a frown toward Siwoo, and he genuinely worried before heading to the brothel as usual.
"I'm hopeless..."
"Lady Louise..."
In the end, the shocked Louise sank into visible depression and self-deprecation.
Honestly, it was pretty bad. I told her to show shy awareness, not an orc face.
Ah... "Comedy from afar, tragedy up close"—that's exactly this. What a bitter incident.
I need to change the lesson direction.
Louise's behavior screamed male social anxiety. She hangs with guys fine normally, but once she sees him as "the opposite sex," she gets all self-conscious.
So, she needs to overcome that. Get used to men—specifically, men she sees romantically—so she can face him confidently like usual.
"Lady Louise."
Yeah, that's the only reason. Nothing else.
Not because her breasts look soft, or I want to see her blush in my arms, or sneak in some skinship to fluster her—no, purely for Louise's sake.
"The situation's worse than I thought. We need to switch to more aggressive lessons. You okay with that?"
"Ugh... If it works, sure."
"Good. Then come here."
"...What did you say?!!"
Ah, for real. Extreme measures for her own good. Nothing beats experience to get used to men.
The issue is whether she sees me as a man...
"Hurry!"
"U-Ugh...!"
Seeing Louise already beet red, I had no worries.
The man's body roughly plunged into the woman, and the bed creaked under the strain, shaking wildly. She harmonized with lewd moans, until the man climaxed inside her, putting a period on the act.
"Haa... Siwoo."
"Mary... Can we go again?"
"Yesss, come hereee..."
No, not a period—an ellipsis. The man started again, and she embraced him fully, welcoming him. They synced perfectly with familiar movements, driving each other to ecstasy.
"Haaang! It feels so gooood!"
"Nooo, I'm cummiiing, aaahhhn!"
Finally, as she came, her pussy clenched tight around his thrusting cock. He ejaculated deep inside again, ending another round.
She savored the afterglow, then leaned down to clean his soiled dick, her face beaming with true happiness.
"Mary, did it feel good?"
"Haah, slurp... So good, gulp, Siwoo..."
"Me too... Best as always today."
"Hehe... I'm so happy."
Once she finished cleaning, he gave her his arm as a pillow. She leaned in, whispering sweet nothings. He seemed utterly smitten, reacting to her every little story, pouring out his affection.
"But Siwoo... I heard you're with Lady Louise every day lately... She really is beautiful, isn't she? Matches you so well..."
"With Lady Louise, it's just sparring. We part right after."
"Really...? Ah, but you just haven't seen her charms yet. If you spend more time..."
"Mary, right now, you're the only one for me."
"Siwoo! Sob, sob... I'm so happyyy..."
Tears welled in her eyes, and he wiped them away himself. They kissed, then tangled bodies once more. The acts continued relentlessly until dawn.
