Chapter Title: No in Words, But...

-----------------------------------------------------------------

They say no with words, but...

"How about it? Can it be deciphered?"

"Hmm, probably not."

Shin Seomhwa shook her head with a serious expression.

Jinwoo had a wealth of knowledge, but when it came to pure magic theory, he couldn't hold a candle to Shin Seomhwa.

Even she looked utterly baffled.

"Dimensional magic is something that only exists in theory. Of course, there are a few ability users with related powers."

"But artificially creating it is impossible, right?"

Shin Seomhwa nodded.

Modern magic was akin to engineering, excluding ability users.

If you understood the principles, you could replicate it endlessly.

But if not, it was basically treated like science fiction.

Dimensional magic fell into the category of "sure, it might exist in theory, but no way it's actually possible."

"And this one's being kept open continuously."

"That's right."

"Considering the mana it's using, this is technology that could rewrite history. Whoever made it must be from the future... or some kind of doomsday genius."

"Uh... does a person like ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠that really exist?"

"Not among anyone I know."

Shin Seomhwa shrugged.

They discussed it at length, but all it did was reconfirm how insane this door was.

'And it's on an uninhabited island with no people.'

They'd been on this island for quite a while now.

Yet the mysteries only seemed to grow.

'Whatever. No point overthinking it.'

Jinwoo decided to shake it off.

There was too much else to do to obsess over this.

If it was a problem solvable by pondering, he'd dig in deep.

But this wasn't one of those.

"Sunbae~ Team Leader~"

Someone appeared from beyond the door.

Han Soyoung, rushing over in her saintess outfit.

"You'll trip. Walk, don't run."

"I-I got scared all of a sudden being alone."

Han Soyoung arrived and dramatically shivered.

Then she glanced at Jinwoo.

Jinwoo sighed and extended his hand.

He soon stroked her head like praising a good girl.

"There, there, good job."

"Ehehehe."

Han Soyoung basked in the touch, wearing the happiest expression in the world.

She looked a bit like a puppy.

"Your hair's all messed up now."

"Oh, I wanna leave it like this today."

Han Soyoung beamed innocently.

Was a head pat really that great?

"So, what was it like inside?"

Jinwoo had sent Han Soyoung to check out the uninhabited island and ruins they'd just left.

She was perfect for it, having spent so long alone in those ruins.

"No changes at all. As you saw, coming back was no problem."

"Hmm, so we can head back to that island whenever."

"No guarantee the door stays open, though."

"That should be fine."

The Dimensional Key that had flowed into Jinwoo's body.

It was still doing its job.

All in all, the situation wasn't bad.

Worst case, they could flee back to the original island.

"For now, let's stay here and scout the surroundings."

Jinwoo pulled ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠an item from his inventory.

It was the A-grade item he'd drawn from the special gacha last time.

The magically crafted tent was incredibly spacious—even after furnishing it, there was room to spare.

It was less a tent and more a small house.

That's why he'd decided to relocate without hesitation.

No need to build lodging every time they moved.

Of course, it had shortcomings compared to a real house.

But on an uninhabited island, this was hotel-level luxury.

'We'll stick near the dimensional door and scout for a while.'

It looked the same on the surface, but it was a different island.

He decided to prioritize thorough intel gathering first.

Jinwoo's group split into two teams.

Shin Seomhwa and Han Soyoung in one, Jinwoo and Hilde in the other.

"Wow, it's been ages since I've teamed up with you like this, Team Leader!"

"Yeah, takes me back."

Just in case, he gave them each one of the survival kits he'd made before.

Though with these three, he figured nothing could go wrong.

"Scouting first, so we'll split into two teams and check both directions. Don't go too far, and head back immediately if danger pops up."

With that, the teams parted ways.

Jinwoo and Hilde would scout left from the tent.

"Being like this takes me back to when it was just us."

"Yeah, like when we first crash-landed on the island."

"Hehe, we even ran from goblins back then."

Hilde smiled brightly as she walked ahead.

Her face held a touch of nostalgia.

"Did you prefer those days, Hilde?"

"Me? Hmm~?"

Hilde pondered for a moment.

Then her face lit up with a playful smile.

"I liked that I had Master all to myself back then."

"Hmm."

"But I don't mind the lively atmosphere now. You three are all wonderful people."

Fortunately, Hilde seemed quite satisfied with their current life.

Hilde's situation was different from the other two.

Shin Seomhwa and Han Soyoung had been shipwrecked just like Jinwoo.

Hilde had been summoned for his needs.

'That's what makes her even more lovable.'

If he hadn't drawn her,

no, even further back—what had Hilde been doing?

He knew she'd been a princess before,

but she never spoke of her past.

"Master."

"Yeah?"

"Can we hold hands?"

"Of course."

Hand in hand, they walked through the forest.

It was unfamiliar territory, so caution was needed.

But he didn't want to ruin Hilde's date-like enjoyment after so long.

"Hehe, as long as I'm with Master, anywhere's fine."

Hilde pulled Jinwoo's hand to her cheek.

Rubbing against the back of his hand.

Her skin felt impossibly soft, like a baby's.

"Wherever you are is my happiness."

Her silver hair cascading to her waist.

Her milk-white skin.

Her jewel-like blue eyes.

All so lovable.

'She's seriously too pretty.'

Hilde's beauty felt so unreal at times.

He sometimes couldn't believe this beauty was his woman.

They walked the forest path for a while.

Thankfully, no monsters showed up.

By the time they'd gone fairly deep,

Jinwoo's eyes suddenly caught Hilde's figure.

'No matter how many times I look, what an incredible body.'

Her massive breasts strained against the tight blouse.

Sexy thighs peeking from her black skirt.

Any man would want to pounce.

So Jinwoo did.

"Eep! M-Master?"

He surprised her from behind, wrapping his arms around her.

A sweet fragrance wafted from her body.

Startled by the sudden skinship, Hilde froze.

Her face looked like she'd been ambushed.

'Cute.'

He lightly kissed the nape of her stiff neck.

The skin where his lips touched turned bright red.

He could feel her body heat rising instantly.

"N-No, Master. The others are out there scouting hard."

She really seemed to mean it, resisting.

To keep her from escaping, he slid his leg between hers.

"Ah."

He pulled her tighter into his embrace, claiming ownership.

Holding her firmly so she couldn't move.

"M-Master... really... we can't..."

Hilde wriggled to break free.

He kneaded her ample breasts in the process.

"Eep!"

She jolted like she'd been shocked the moment his hands touched.

Her reaction was so cute, he teased more persistently.

"Nngh, eep..."

As he fondled her breasts, Hilde twisted to resist the pleasure.

But it wasn't very effective.

From the instant his hands touched, her waist went weak.

Instead, she gripped his wrists tight.

"M-Master... the others will lose all respect for me..."

Maybe because she had such a strong sense of responsibility.

Unlike usual, she wasn't yielding easily.

Normally, she'd offer herself before he even asked.

"Nngh... I-I'll do it when we get back... please hold out for now..."

"I want to feel just you right now."

"Nngh... haa... ♥"

Sweet breaths finally escaped Hilde's lips.

Regardless of her will, her mouth sweetened with arousal.

'Feels... so good...'

Jinwoo's skill at handling her breasts was masterful.

Teasing and releasing her sensitive spots repeatedly made her waist tremble on its own.

Her mind knew it was wrong.

But her body was already radiating pleasure, preparing to welcome him.

"Haa, haa, Master... really, we can't..."

"Your words say no, but this seems to beg for more."

Her nipples had hardened, poking prominently through her white blouse.

Asserting their presence even over the fabric.

He could pinpoint their position through her clothes.

Jinwoo chuckled and flicked his fingers.

"Ahhn!"

A cute moan burst from her.

Savoring it, he toyed with her sensitive nipples.

"Nngh! Hah! S-Stop...!"

When he squeezed from base to tip, ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠her hypersensitive nipples made her thighs clamp reflexively.

A drop of clear love juice trickled down her legs, hidden by her black miniskirt.

Her panties were probably a mess.

"Haa! Haa!"

Heat began to radiate from her toned, trained body.

Her ripe flesh yearned and yielded to pleasure.

'A body that drives men insane.'

Hilde had been backed against a tree.

Bracing against it like a wall, panting heavily.

Her apple hips accentuated as she arched her waist.

From her fantasy breasts to the seductive curve of her waist.

A perfect figure, as if sculpted stitch by stitch by the gods.

"How's that? Heated up enough?"

"Nngh, Master, you're really..."

Hilde turned to chide him.

But her eyes brimmed only with desire and affection.

Jinwoo pulled her into an embrace and kissed her.

Hilde didn't refuse the kiss.

No, she couldn't.
