"Hayes. Do you know the word 'stud'?"
"Stud... That's a word used for male horses, right?"
"Right. Specifically, an individual with an outstanding bloodline."
The archive room located in the basement of the Association building.
Dust-eonni and I are standing in front of a firmly closed door at the innermost part of the archive room.
Eonni taps her keycard against the security device beside the door, but,
Beep-
'This area is restricted to personnel with Security Grade S-Class or higher.'
"...I forgot because I'm always with the Branch Manager. Hayes, keycard please."
"Ah! H-Here it is."
As I place my keycard against the device again, the lock disengages with a heavy mechanical sound.
Inside the opened door is a somewhat narrow room smelling of dust.
Eonni walks inside comfortably and opens the cabinet beside her.
"First... as you already know, the Branch Manager is one of the initial S-Class heroes."
Eonni pulls out a scrapped newspaper article and places it on the table.
The headline reads, 'S-Class Hero "Silva" Promises Active Cooperation in Government's Next-Generation Hero Nurturing Plan'.
"Among them, he was the person most cooperative with the plan to nurture future S-Class heroes."
"Uh... I think I heard about it on the news."
"However, no one knows the conditions for awakening. Isn't it strange to 'raise' an S-Class hero?"
"......."
"The Branch Manager was chosen as a stud by people who believed that hero qualities were hereditary."
"Th-Then..."
"To be precise, by people who wanted to make their own children into S-Class heroes. It was a top-secret project."
As she flips the scrapped article, another newspaper article comes into view.
'S-Class Hero "Silva" Suddenly Announces Opposition to Nurturing Future S-Class Heroes...'
'Power = Authority... What the Strongest S-Class Hero Fears Most Is "Generational Change"?'
"Even after announcing a stance like this, proposals kept coming in. Continuously... for about 3 years."
"W-What kind of proposals...?"
"'Sleep with my wife and get her pregnant with an S-Class hero'... 'Don't waste your seed by getting married'... 'Spreading your bloodline is itself the nurturing of heroes.'"
"......."
"With such solicitations continuing for over 3 years, the Branch Manager was on the brink of going insane.
There was even a time when he was invited to a banquet, only to find an aphrodisiac meant for beasts mixed into his meal."
Once again, Dust-eonni flips the article.
This time, it is not a newspaper article, but a neat, formal report.
'Investigation Report - Suspect: Matthew Anderson'
"This is...?"
"Then things blew up. He was dispatched with his sidekick to defend against an S-Class villain's terror attack, but ended up trapped in a collapsing building due to an explosion."
"Just the two of them?"
"Yeah. The building was on the verge of collapsing. Trapped in the basement with nowhere to run and facing certain death, the Branch Manager couldn't maintain his sanity."
"......."
"For 3 whole years, without missing a single day, the Branch Manager had been solicited for loveless sex... for breeding, by people who only regarded him as a stud.
A person who had done nothing but endure it patiently eventually..."
Eonni's finger points to a single line in the report.
'During the 5 hours isolated at the terror scene, numerous pieces of evidence suggesting the suspect raped the accompanying A-Class hero were discovered.'
"He lost his mind."
"......."
"That's why he retired."
"What? Ret-Retirement, not arrest?"
"Read the next line too."
'However, arrest was impossible due to the victim, the accompanying A-Class hero, adamantly denying the allegations.
The 2-year hero license suspension and restraining order were also rejected due to strong opposition from the victim.'
"...This isn't, right?"
"It is."
Dust-eonni isn't flustered at all; instead, she stares straight at me.
With her usual indifferent and calm expression, she speaks.
"It's me."
"Th-Then... when you said you did it with the Branch Manager..."
"Ah, I still do it with him occasionally since then."
"Pardon...?"
"Whenever the Branch Manager holds back until he feels like he can't endure it anymore."
"...Eonni, do you like the Branch Manager?"
"No. But I understand him."
H-How can a thing like that be solved just by understanding?
"Aren't you also able to have sex without loving the Branch Manager because you understand Seungyoon-ssi's pain?"
"Th-That's a different situation..."
"Neither of them did anything wrong. We, being in the position to understand that best, are simply understanding and helping."
"......."
"Ah, but be careful. When it happens, the Branch Manager is really like a stud... a bit rough."
Having finished her story, Dust-eonni snaps the opened file shut.
...I stood there blankly, like someone who had been hit on the back of the head.
"Still, it feels ridiculously good. Doing it with the Branch Manager."
"E-Eonni!! I never asked about that...!"
"Just a joke."
A-A joke... right?
Her expression is so serious that I can't tell...
"I got permission from the Branch Manager saying it's fine to tell Seungyoon-ssi. Secrecy is, of course, mandatory."
"Ah, got it..."
"...That's what she said."
"Hah..."
The emotion I felt while listening to the story was definitely sympathy.
All the more so because I have a lover who can understand me better than anyone else, and whom I love just as much.
"And earlier, when I was coming back after hearing the story... I got a text from Matthew-ssi."
"What did it say?"
"...That we shouldn't care about his circumstances, and that oppa and I should decide between the two of us."
Truly altruistic, self-sacrificing... a literal hero.
But does Matthew-ssi know?
Even the pang of conscience from leaving such a task to you is... a thrill mixed with immoral pleasure for me right now.
"...Phew."
Stud... Loveless sex. Breeding, mating, copulation.
Can Eunji handle something like that?
...No. The question is wrong.
After experiencing such rough sex, will Eunji be able to come back to me and be satisfied?
"Ha... ha."
"Wh-Why are you like that, oppa?"
"...It's nothing."
To think I'm even having thoughts like this, I really am breaking down.
Isn't it too harsh to be the price for not dumping my desires on Eunji for just about a week?
"...Let's do it."
"......."
"Honestly, I... tried to endure it alone again. I'm sorry."
"...I know, oppa."
"But... but, hearing this story, I can't."
"......."
"I can imagine you coming back after getting fucked by Matthew-ssi, saying that having sex with me was nothing."
Delusion. This is a delusion.
Mottled kiss marks left on the nape of Eunji's neck when she returns after losing contact for several hours.
Hair soaked in sweat, makeup smeared little by little.
"After pounding into you roughly like a stud, he'll definitely cum inside you. I... I'm looking forward to that so much."
"......."
"Because I feel like you'd feel so good, getting fucked roughly by Matthew-ssi like an animal..."
Because I feel like you'll never be satisfied with plain sex with me again...
I'm turned on.
"C-Calm down, oppa... I'm okay."
"......."
"...Then, sh-should I go do it...?"
"Right now?"
"Y-Yeah... Matthew-ssi said today is okay too."
With just one word of my answer right now, Eunji might leave.
She'll head to a hotel to be held in another man's arms, to be fucked by a hero who lost his sanity.
And how? How will she be ravished?
Is it even a realm someone ordinary like me can imagine?
Will he grab Eunji's waist with those thick hands, keeping her from escaping until he finishes ejaculating, while slamming his hips down?
Eunji, face down on the bed, would have no choice but to quietly lift her hips.
With her legs spread wide, her raised hips matching Matthew-ssi's waist height being pounded so roughly they get crushed and squished... she'll cum.
Or what about Eunji facing him... getting fucked while her already sensitive breasts are squeezed?
...The situation isn't much different here either.
Pleasure too intense and dizzying for Eunji to endure will relentlessly pound her womb.
Without much consideration, roughly and heavily, literally like the spurt of a stud right before ejaculating.
If not that, how about being helplessly ravished while standing up with her arms held behind her back?
Her body, exhausted from repeated continuous orgasms, will shake violently every time Matthew-ssi's thick waist slams into her.
Barely holding on with her limp legs, unable to even collapse, while squeezing her pussy along with her climax...
In the end, won't Eunji realize and feel it too?
That sex with this man feels so much better.
Wouldn't she fall a little for that kind of mating—rough and beast-like, stripping away affection and staying faithful to primal desire?
The moment she gets ejaculated in, she'll unknowingly cling to Matthew-ssi, wrapping her legs around his waist and scratching his back with her hands—
"Oh, ohoo, ot...♡ Oh, oo, ok... ♡"
Dribbling pathetic and filthy moans... taking in his ejaculation—
"...Oppa?"
"...Ah."
"Y-You saw a delusion just now, right? Don't hide it, tell me... okay?"
"...That's right."
I swallowed dryly.
I... wish.
I hope that at least these people helping me feel good during the process.
Both Eunji and Matthew-ssi.
Rather than forcing themselves... I hope they can enjoy it a little bit.
Because that makes me feel even more miserable.
"Eunji-ya."
"Nng...?"
"...Please."
After a moment of silence, Eunji nods slightly and stands up.
Many emotions can be seen in her expression, but a faint blush seems to be spreading across her face as well.
"Phew... I-It's okay! Matthew-ssi will understand too."
"......."
"And I... since I know what state you're in, oppa, of course I... understand. Th-Then... I'll be back, okay?"
"...Condom."
"Huh?"
"Are you... using a condom?"
"O-Of course!"
Ah... ah.
Deep down, I might have been expecting Eunji to hesitate in her answer.
"O-One more thing. Take a picture right before doing it."
"A picture?"
"So it feels like it's starting... together with Matthew-ssi."
"......."
"During it is fine, but right before doing it. And right after it's finished as well."
"...Got it, oppa."
Because I want to hear from your own mouth what happened between those two pictures.
...Once the decision was made, preparation took an instant. After brief preparations, Eunji departed.
Forgetting to mention when she would return was definitely a coincidence.
And instead, after about 30 minutes.
A single picture arrived. A single picture that arrived along with the short single phrase, 'I love you'.
"Ha... haah."
From now on, Eunji gets fucked by Matthew-ssi.
My lover is held in the arms of a man who tried to keep his boundary because he didn't know how rough he would become.
And I'm so turned on by that... to the point my heart trembles.
