Fellatio Is a Wife's Duty, Isn't It?
"I'm home."
It was 5:00 PM. I arrived home, but the place was empty. My family wouldn't be back until 7:00, we’d eat dinner at 8:00, and everyone would be asleep by midnight.
'Damn it... how am I supposed to wait seven hours?'
To kill time, I lay on my bed and scrolled through online communities. I logged into the Hunter Gallery, the go-to site for trash posts. Despite the name, half the posts had nothing to do with Hunters.
The first page was already filled with gems like these:
Then, one post caught my eye: "Traits of a Virgin."
I didn't click it because I felt called out. I was just curious what kind of bullshit they were spewing.
"Ha."
If it were the old me, I would've giggled and hit the upvote button, but I couldn't do that now. I was a true "adult" who had stepped into a new world. I immediately wrote a comment:
Replies came instantly:
"Ah, these bastards..."
I wasn't triggered. I was just worried about their warped mindset as a senior who had already entered the adult world. A "virgin"? I could accept that. But "virginity"? That was ambiguous. You have to define the criteria for virginity accurately. Can you call a man who hasn't inserted his penis into a woman's vagina a virgin? Most would say "yes," but I could answer "no."
'Maybe I've already had an emotional sexual experience with my mom?'
And tonight, I was going to open another door to a new world. Who knows... maybe I'd really lose my virginity someday.
I replied to these poor souls immediately:
Another reply came immediately:
"Ah."
I wasn't hurt, but I decided they weren't worth my time and closed the gallery. I was definitely not triggered.
After browsing for a bit, it was finally 6:00 PM. 'Time is really dragging.' I should just take a nap.
Clatter.
?
There was a sound from the living room. I checked the time: 8:17 PM. 'I slept for two hours.' If Mom had come home, she definitely would have woken me up. Was she not back yet?
I opened my door and went out to the living room.
"Ah."
I made eye contact with Yoon Jihyun, who was eating dinner at the dining table.
"You just waking up?"
"Where's Mom?"
"Mom's late because of overtime, and Unnie has a midterm tomorrow, so she's pulling an all-nighter at the library."
The words, 'What about you? Can't you just stay out for a night?' rose to my throat, but I barely swallowed them.
"Haa... hey, it's funny coming from a repeater, but you're not studying or working, so why are you always lazing around at home? Did you go out to play somewhere again?"
She looked at me with her signature look of contempt. She always looked at me like that. If a stranger looked at me that way, I might have laughed it off as a "perk of the industry," but maybe it was the DNA of a brother and sister who instinctively antagonized each other, even after meeting for the first time in 15 years—she was constantly snapping at me.
'Nahyun-noona is so kind, why is she like this...'
Nahyun-noona said that Yoon Jihyun was the happiest when I said I was coming back, but her attitude was the exact opposite of what I'd heard. I barely swallowed the words, 'I've poured 430 million won into this house, you repeater.'
I remembered a trash post I saw on the Hunter Gallery a while ago: "Younger sister = a legal wife sent by heaven." The guy who wrote that had a 99.99% chance of not having a younger sister.
"Hey, are you ignoring me?"

Yoon Jihyun glared at me with a dissatisfied expression.
"..."
I coolly ignored her and headed back to my room.
"Hey! Where are you going!"
"To my room, why."
"...I set out food for you, so eat it if you want."
"Not hungry."
"..."
'Why would I eat with you and invite more insults?' I entered my room and sat on the edge of the bed. I clasped my hands together, shook my legs, and stared at the clock in silence. My mind was already filled with Mom.
"Hoo..."
I closed my eyes and imagined Mom. The image of her kneeling demurely before me, preciousy caressing my penis, kissing the glans with her beautiful, blemish-free, glossy lips, and taking it into her mouth... I couldn't even imagine it.
-Insufficient Experience-
Since I'd never received oral from a woman, I couldn't imagine what it would be like to be on the receiving end. It was an overwhelming lack of experience.
Whirrr-
"Huh?"
10,000,000 won has been deposited.
"What? They said it would come in tomorrow..."
In this world, the extravagance of Hunters had become a social issue. Well, it made sense; ten million won for just two days of playing chaperone to some chicks... it was an absurd amount of pay.
I guessed that unlike me, the E-rank Hunters who fought for their lives probably got 1.5 to 2 million won at best. Yang Hayoon? Maybe around 4 million? You might think 1.5 million for two days of work is a lot, but for work where you literally put your life on the line, it was on the low side.
Paradoxically, I also thought: 'How much are they skimming off the top to pay this much?'
Whirrr- Whirrr-
Then, Kang Hyena called.
"Hello."
"Did you check the deposit?"
"Yeah, just checked."
"Once the recovery team finishes their appraisal, you'll get your incentive separately."
"Thanks for looking out for me."
"Consider it an honor! You think it's common for a high-ranking official to contact you directly?"
This girl had been like this since we were kids; give her a little praise, and she'd get cocky immediately.
"..."
"You don't even have any friends besides me. Even in school, during cooperative missions, you just rode on my coattails."
'When was that...'
But it was only natural to respond to a provocation with a provocation.
"You lost to me, remember? You and I have a record of 1-0, remember that?"
"What?! Hey, that was! Hey, let's fight again!"
"Why would I? You suck at fighting. Next up, the one-loss girl."
"Hey!"
When we were at Hunter Academy, there was a mock combat exam where they dropped us on an island for two weeks. It was a test where you got points for subduing an opponent and stealing their bracelet, and the points you could get depended on the student's rank.
The guy in first place was an Awakened with stealth abilities, so he vanished as soon as he arrived on the island. 'Well, he hated being bothered even more than I did.'
Hyena was in second place, but since she was a pure combat type, many Hunters teamed up to target her points. Since it was an exam where you could trade points, they planned to cooperate to catch Hyena and split the points.
But for two weeks, Kang Hyena defeated all the dozens of Hunters targeting her and took their points. I spent those two weeks patiently tracking Kang Hyena, and 30 minutes before the exam ended, I ambushed her—she was exhausted from not being able to sleep or eat properly for two weeks, leaning against a tree—and took her points.
'A win is a win.'
After that, a pleasant conversation with Kang Hyena followed. It was all old news, but it wasn't bad to have the memories come flooding back.
"You've changed a bit?"
"Me?"
"Yeah. In the past, you would've just stated your business and hung up... this is the first time I've talked to you like this."
"Is that so?"
"Yeah, you've definitely changed. I have to go back to work now. Come to the Central Hunter Association sometime, let's grab a meal."
"Sure, I'll come by."
"Hanging up."
"Yeah."
I hung up and checked the time: 9:29 PM... I'd been talking without even realizing how much time had passed.
Click-
Then, the sound of the front door opening, and I reflexively stood up and left my room.
"Mom...!"
"Oh? Son! You should've told me you were coming today!"
"Ah... I didn't know you were going to be late... Mom, later..."
Then, Yoon Jihyun burst out of her room.
"Mom! I'm trying to watch my online lectures, but the laptop is so shitty it keeps cutting out, it's so annoying!"
"Ah."
"Is that so? But you didn't buy that long ago..."
"It's been five years, it's too shitty!"
'Haa... the timing, really.'
For a repeater, she seemed to want too much. It was obvious she had been raised as the golden child of the family. 'I really need to teach her a lesson one of these days.'
As Yoon Jihyun was muttering her complaints, Mom stared at me and moved her lips.
'That lip shape...'
If I wasn't seeing things, Mom had clearly mouthed to me: -Come in two hours-.
I gave a light nod and returned to my room.
***
"Mom, I'm coming in."
"Okay."
Mom was standing there with a slightly nervous expression.
"How was work? You must be tired..."
Mom seemed to be trying to ease the tension with conversation, but my patience had reached its limit. During the two hours I'd waited in my room, my erect penis had been endlessly leaking pre-cum, and I'd eventually had to change my underwear.
I approached Mom without a word and took off my pants.
"Sunghyun...?"
I couldn't imagine what my expression looked like right now. I gently pressed down on Mom's head.
"Haa..."
Mom let out a short moan and knelt down.
"Sss... haa... Son's penis..."
Mom must have been secretly glad to see my penis for the first time in three days, as she pressed her nose against it and inhaled.
"Mom..."
"Yes..."
We didn't need any more conversation. Mom opened her mouth and took the glans into it.
Slurp.
"Ha... damn it..."
I was heading into a new world today.
