Chapter 358: Blazing Flames of the Battlefield[R-18] (76)
For several days, I met secretly with officials from the neutral nations alongside Adele, handling our entire schedule. The talks ended without incident, and we returned to the Astrea.
A few days later, I was back at the training grounds. Only Lisa stood before me. Before I returned, Oh Hyun had temporarily left the ship with Sheryl and Mason to deal with a supply issue.
“You kept up with your training while I was gone, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Good. Then today, we’ll just do a simple warm-up before sparring with mobile weapons.”
The moment she heard that, Lisa’s expression stiffened.
The mere mention of sparring with mobile weapons made her flinch.
She knew my skills better than anyone, and having already experienced the vast gap between us firsthand, her face was tense as she spoke.
“Got it.”
“Now, come at me.”
Before I could even finish, Lisa moved first, as if she’d been waiting. She drew her dagger and threw herself forward.
Her timing was fast and sharp, but well within my expectations.
I twisted away a half-beat later to dodge. The blade sliced through empty air.
Good momentum.
She immediately followed up with her next attack—a series of kicks and slashes.
Oh Hyun gets back in two days, right?
At that thought, the corners of my mouth lifted on their own.
Perfect. I can enjoy myself to the fullest while he's gone.
There was no need to hold back or worry about what anyone thought.
First, how about a light touch to awaken her acupoints?
I lowered my stance and dove into her guard. Then, I immediately channeled qi through my fingertips, stimulating the acupoints all over her body as if I were tapping them.
It wasn't simple striking. It was a process of implanting qi to open her meridians and regulate their flow.
“Ugh…!”
Lisa’s face twisted in pain. Before, I focused mainly on her erogenous zones, but now it was the opposite.
That’s not to say I left them out completely.
Pretending to strike an acupoint, I flicked her nipple with my finger. It was just a light brush against the tip of her nipple, but a short, strange moan escaped Lisa’s lips.
“Ah…!”
The sound slipped out before she had a chance to cover her mouth. Her eyes widened, and she just sucked in a breath and glared at me. Normally, she would have cursed at me, but…
Is she just going to… ignore it now?
Or maybe she’d instinctively realized that saying anything was useless.
The moment that thought crossed my mind, Lisa aimed a kick at my head. But I dodged it easily, and just as effortlessly evaded her follow-up attack.
“Your movements are too wide. If you come at me like that—”
I tilted my head slightly and ducked, closing in toward her abdomen.
“I can see right through you.”
After striking Lisa like that for a while, most of the work was done. I had stimulated her enough and opened all her acupoints. Now, it was time to focus on my real objective.
Lisa’s lower abdomen. I aimed precisely for the area where her uterus was located and put power into my fist.
—Thwack!
“Ngh…♡”
Struck hard in the abdomen, Lisa collapsed, sinking to the floor. Her knees buckled, and she slid down. Her hands instinctively clutched her lower stomach as her back arched, trembling.
I could see a dark stain slowly spreading on the inner thigh of her tight training pants. She’d only taken one hit to her lower abdomen, but that single impact had sent her straight to climax.
Looks like getting hit in the uterus now only makes her feel pleasure, not pain.
Her reaction was much more pronounced than last time. Lisa responded to the stimulation far more sensitively than before, as if the sensation had been completely etched into her body.
I gave her plenty of time to catch her breath and compose herself, and after that, we finished the mobile weapon sparring without any issues.
After the sparring session ended, I looked at Lisa, who stood before me with a slightly awkward expression, and spoke.
“How is it? Your body feels completely different from before, doesn't it?”
Lisa bit her lip, looking up at me with a complicated expression.
“How… how did this happen just from that? Honestly, you were like a total pervert… you kept hitting all these weird places…” she muttered, her face flushing. It seemed she wanted to deny it, but the results were so obvious she felt wronged.
I shrugged and replied.
“Let’s just call it… a mystery of the ancient East.”
“……What?”
“The places I hit might all seem strange to you, but they’re key to regulating the body’s flow of qi and blood through its meridians.”
Lisa narrowed her eyes, glaring at me. She was clearly half-suspicious… but her gaze also held a hint of curiosity.
“……Is that really a thing?”
I shrugged again.
“Yeah. It’s, shall we say, a secret art passed down in my family.”
“……If I keep receiving that… what happens?”
“Well, it’s not like you’ll get infinitely stronger. But as your nervous system is gradually refined, things like your sensory reactions, muscle control, and unit control reaction speed will improve noticeably.”
Lisa quietly lowered her gaze. She took a moment to steady her breathing before speaking in a low mumble.
“…You’re right. A moment ago, something was definitely… different. It felt like the world had slowed down.”
I nodded.
“But that sensation is temporary. You have to receive it consistently to maintain it.”
Lisa frowned.
“…I have to get hit like this… every day?”
“Well, to be honest… there is another way.”
“Hey! Then you should have done that from the start!”
I shrugged and said calmly.
“That one has to be done naked. There’s no way you’d willingly agree to that.”
“That’s… true…”
Lisa’s voice trailed off as she turned her head away. She tried to look indifferent, but I could clearly see her mind racing behind her gaze. Her eyes showed she was mulling something over, biting her lip.
I watched her silently, murmuring to myself.
Now that she’s had a taste, she’ll want to feel it again.
Her acupoints were opened by the stimulation. Thanks to that, her senses were drastically heightened, and her skills had noticeably improved.
Lisa herself knew her body had changed.
And though she didn't know it yet, her body was growing more and more accustomed to my stimulation. She was slowly becoming addicted to the pleasure I was secretly injecting.
Now she would have to choose. Would she continue the training and become stronger? Or would she cling to her pride and remain where she was?
But the outcome of that choice was already decided.
After a quiet silence, Lisa spoke cautiously.
“That… other method… I’ll try it just once…”
She chose it in the end.
Making her say she wanted it herself. That was the most perfect form of submission.
“Alright. Let’s go to my room.”
Lisa hesitated for a moment at my words but soon nodded.
“Okay…”
After her reply, she began to follow quietly behind me.
*
Lisa lay quietly on the bed, her eyes closed, repeating the same words in her mind.
Is this the right thing to do… It has to be, right…?
Lying naked in front of a man she wasn't related to was far more embarrassing and humiliating than she had expected.
She hadn’t thought much of it while taking off her clothes, but now that she was actually lying naked on the bed, she was tense.
Worse, the person she was showing her naked body to was Jin Seo-yun.
A man whose every action was brazenly shameless, whose speech and attitude were practically fiendish. A typical womanizer who had plenty of women and fucked around carelessly.
He was exactly the type of man she hated most.
Lying naked in front of someone like that was bound to make her anxious. But it was too late to run away now.
…Still, if that bastard is even remotely human… he won’t just pounce on me, right…
Lisa took a long breath, curling up slightly on the bed. A subtle tension settled in her lower abdomen. The thin sheet she’d pulled over her chest barely covered her body.
Just then, the door opened, and Jin Seo-yun walked in.
“Sorry. Have you been waiting?”
Lisa flinched in surprise, then quickly averted her gaze and yelled.
“Wh-what’s taking you so long…!”
Jin Seo-yun smiled nonchalantly, swirling a transparent glass bottle in one hand. It was half-full of a clear, viscous liquid.
“I was missing one thing.”
“……What is it?”
“Oil. For massages.”
“…Just get on with it. And I swear… if you try anything weird, I’ll scream.”
Jin Seo-yun just chuckled at her words.
“Hey, I won’t do anything like that.”
Jin Seo-yun laughed as if it were nothing, but she could feel his eyes slowly raking over her body.
Lisa quietly gritted her teeth.
…That fucking pervert.
Cursing Jin Seo-yun over and over in her mind, she squeezed her eyes shut.
“I’ll start with your back. Turn over.”
Lisa nodded wordlessly and slowly turned onto her stomach. She felt the sheet that had been covering her slide down her back, slow enough to be intensely conscious of it.
A sudden chill ran down her back. A cold, slippery liquid trickled down from her shoulders, and then a large, firm hand swept down her back—gently, yet with restrained power.
“Hah…!”
A much more direct stimulation than she’d expected. A thrill that seemed to travel from her skin right down her spine. The short gasp escaped her lips, and Lisa quickly clamped a hand over her mouth in shock.
…What, why am I…
Just now, where Jin Seo-yun’s hand had touched, she felt something hot stir faintly.
It was just a simple touch, but her body had reacted far too easily. Jin Seo-yun’s hand moved back up to her shoulders. Slowly, deeply, he began to trace the lines of her muscles, kneading his way across her entire back.
“I told you to relax.”
Jin Seo-yun’s voice was low and calm, but at the same time, the pressure of his thumb pressing into the nape of her neck felt strangely good.
Her body relaxed on its own.
“Heuhh…”
A sound she couldn’t hold back escaped her lips. The tension melted away, and all the strength drained from her body, making her feel like she was sinking into the mattress. The warm hands gliding over her back were releasing the heavy knots in her muscles one by one.
It was an incredibly pleasant sensation. Her mouth fell open unconsciously as she murmured to herself.
…This feels good.
Jin Seo-yun’s touch was completely different from what she had worried about. He didn’t touch any unnecessarily sensitive places. In this moment, he was simply focused on the massage.
The realization made her feel a pang of guilt.
Did I… think too badly of him…?
She felt a tiny bit sorry for being so wary and suspicious of him for no reason.
