The sexual act between the man and woman inside the device had ended, but Louise couldn't pull herself away from the lingering afterglow.
Her heart pounded wildly—thump thump thump thump—as the image of the woman's pussy, filled with cum, kept flickering before her eyes. Her body heated up in response, and her breathing grew increasingly ragged. Without realizing it, Louise began rubbing her thighs together.
"Haa..."
The man saw this and grinned, slowly reaching out to stroke her thigh.
"Kyaa!"
"Haha. What did you think, Lady Louise?"
"It... it's so embarrassingly hard to endure."
Louise let out a scream at the unexpected touch and flushed with shame. But the man didn't remove his hand from her thigh. Instead, he continued boldly.
Wearing short shorts, Louise's bare skin was completely exposed, with nothing to cover it—and right now, the man was caressing that very skin.
'Wh-what...? Why...?!'
His thick hand was soft yet firm, gentle yet intense. And just like in the scene on the screen, it felt sticky and lewd. For a virgin like Louise, it was far too overwhelming a stimulus.
'Uuu...'
Caught off guard, she couldn't resist at all. Her mind went blank, and like a doll in his hands, she simply accepted his touch.
"That's why this training is necessary. Once you get used to this, there'll be nothing left to fear. You won't tremble in front of Siwoo anymore."
"Even so..."
"Don't worry. This one's on the milder side."
"Uuu... Fine."
The man manipulated the device to play the next video. This time, instead of a couple together, it showed the woman from before, now alone on the bed. She wasn't wearing panties, so her pussy was fully exposed.
"Wh-what is this woman doing?!"
Louise watched in shock, wondering what could possibly come next. The woman picked up some clothes and sniffed them, then began touching her own genitals with her free hand.
"Why would she do something like...?!"
The woman on the screen was masturbating. But Louise, ignorant of sex, had no idea what masturbation even was. Instinctively, though, from the woman's moans, she realized this was another lewd act.
'Those obscene sounds again...! Is she a whore? How can she make noises like that while touching her own genitals!'
'D-does it... feel good? Is touching your genitals something that feels so good it makes that face...'
Indeed, as the man had said, this was milder. Without the grotesque sight of the man's cock, Louise felt a sense of relief. Her curiosity grew about what the woman was doing. She wondered if she could feel the same pleasure herself.
"Ha-ut?! W-wait a second!"
But in that moment, the man moved his hand. He stopped stroking her thigh and slowly slid it toward her crotch.
Goosebumps erupted across Louise's body. This time, she tried to resist him. But strangely, her body wouldn't respond. These ropes were no obstacle to her at all—that's why she'd agreed to be bound like this—but for some reason, she couldn't move.
In the end, she could only watch as his hand approached.
[Sluurp... Haaang... Aang, haa...]
[Haang, aaah! So good... Ut, haang!]
The woman on the screen reached climax, and the man's hand drew closer. Louise felt like she was losing her mind. She wanted to escape this moment right now.
"Stop! No more!"
So she shouted. In this situation, all she could do was yell for him to stop.
"Aah...!"
Unfortunately, her desperate struggle didn't work. The man's merciless hand pressed on without hesitation. It delved from near her knee into the inner thigh.
"N-no!"
Louise resisted, crying out that it wasn't allowed, but the man didn't stop. Like the woman on the screen, he extended two fingers toward her genitals.
"Stop!!"
But miraculously, it didn't touch her pussy. His hand halted right in front of it at Louise's shout, amplified by her mana. She felt relieved seeing this—yet, oddly, a pang of disappointment too.
"Even you—no, I absolutely cannot forgive this behavior! What do you think you're doing?! This is blatant sexual assault! Are you going to claim this was training for my sake too?!"
Louise stood up in outrage, venting her fury at the man. She was expressing her sense of betrayal from someone she'd trusted—and hiding her own confusing disappointment.
But the man just smiled at her. Still bound to the chair, she was hunched forward, unwittingly exposing her cleavage.
"Calm down, Lady Louise. I swear on the Aria Goddess herself that I had no impure intentions when I touched you."
"You expect me to believe that?!"
"Sigh... Will you believe me if I show you this?"
As Louise refused to trust him any longer, the man pulled a shield from thin air. It emitted an undeniable holy light—the exact same glow seen only during major festivals at the capital's church, from the Aria Goddess.
Louise fell into confusion at the sight. Then the man revealed his true identity. Shockingly, he was a Holy Knight of the Aria Goddess.
"No way... A Holy Knight approved by the Goddess herself...?"
It was utterly unbelievable. But the additional proof he showed was irrefutably clear. Healing wounds at a speed far beyond ordinary priests could only be explained by the power granted by the Aria Goddess.
"Ah, keep this a secret from Sophia—that I can use heals. She's the Saintess, after all; I don't want her feeling like I'm stealing her role. No need to worry her over nothing."
On top of that, there was a Saintess and a Hero. The woman named Sophia traveling with him was the Saintess, and the man who had stolen her heart was the Hero. Only now did Louise understand Siwoo's exceptional skills.
"Uuum... Give me a moment? This information dump is too sudden; I need time to sort my thoughts."
"Take all the time you need. I'll wait."
Her mind in turmoil, Louise sat back down and mulled over his words. But once again, she had no choice but to accept them.
The man was indeed a Holy Knight of the Aria Goddess.
"Sigh... I don't even know how to apologize. If you're a man approved by the Aria Goddess, you wouldn't deceive me over something like this. I'm ashamed."
"Haha. It's fine. My actions were plenty suspicious. I'm the one who should apologize—I should have asked your permission first, Lady Louise."
"No. You've always acted for my sake, yet I couldn't trust you. That's my failing. Truly shameful."
Reflecting on it, his training had always involved shameless acts, but it always yielded results. She'd seen herself changing day by day, and Siwoo had always responded positively. He was never wrong.
Realizing this belatedly, Louise sincerely apologized to him. Her distrust today was more shameful than all their prior sessions. This time, she resolved to truly trust him.
"Um... Even so, isn't it a bit much for you to touch my genitals? Couldn't I just touch myself?"
No, even letting him touch her there was embarrassing. Unable to meet his eyes, Louise bowed her head and asked.
"Before that, I should explain why I tried to touch your genitals."
"Mm, fair enough. Tell me."
"First off, having attraction to the opposite sex means wanting to reproduce with them—humans instinctively and subconsciously think that way. But those unfamiliar with 'sex' feel awkward around the opposite sex due to fear of the unknown. Once you're accustomed to 'sex,' that awkwardness fades, and you treat them naturally. That's why people seem to change once they lose their virginity."
"Er... I see..."
The man approached her again, stroking her thigh as he explained these complex ideas. Louise kept her head down, hiding her flushed face, and quietly accepted his touch. Having decided to trust him, she had no intention of resisting this time.
"So, to help you get used to 'sex,' I've been doing lewd things to you under the excuse of getting comfortable with men: hugs, rubbing my cock against you during hugs, showing you sex scenes, touching your thighs and trying to touch your pussy—all for that reason."
"You don't need to list them all out like that..."
But his hand was gentle this time. Affectionate, too. Unlike his earlier audacious moves, it stayed in place, freely caressing her thigh. An inexplicable pleasure welled up, exciting her. Just from that, she began to leak love juices.
"But the genitals—especially a woman's—are extremely sensitive. Touch them wrong, and instead of getting used to 'sex,' you'll just develop bad associations. To prevent that, I wanted to teach you myself first. I tried to create a natural atmosphere since I thought you'd be embarrassed, but I messed up."
Louise could no longer hear his words. Her body was already in heat. Now she understood the woman on the screen. Right now, Louise craved his touch.
"Like this..."
In her impatience, she guided his caressing hand from her thigh to her pussy.
"This kind of atmosphere...?"
And so, the man granted her wish.
