The Meaning of Netorase (Branch Point 01)
• Men's lust toward Im Da-bin: +40%
• Protagonist (Lee Do-yoon)'s lust and stamina: 1.5x
• Im Da-bin's lust: +30%
• Im Da-bin's netorase compliance: +50%
The early summer sun felt warm on my skin rather than stinging, and the salty sea breeze was refreshingly crisp. The gentle waves lapping at my body filled me with a pleasant vitality. It was the kind of weather where just soaking in the ocean while embracing my lover alone would be perfect.
But the man next to my girlfriend Da-bin right now was Park Jun-seo.
While I was off retrieving the beach ball, Jun-seo approached Da-bin. The water came up to our waists, making it hard to see clearly, but it was obvious he was trying to wrap his arm around her waist.
"Jun-seo oppa!"
Da-bin scolded him and pulled away. Jun-seo gave an awkward laugh and chased after her.
I seized the moment, rushing back to Da-bin with the beach ball in hand.
"Da-bin!"
As I reached her side and went to place my hand on her waist—
"Do-yoon oppa!"
She furrowed her brow and yelled at me too. She was just annoyed by the two guys pawing at her.
But I'm her boyfriend... shouldn't she cut me some slack...?
Jun-seo and I ended up playing beach volleyball with Da-bin—under the guise of teasing her—for a good while before getting out of the water.
But...
This was way too obvious.
Both Jun-seo and I had bulging erections tenting the fronts of our swim trunks. Sure, his was bigger, but still...
Da-bin clearly noticed, her face flushing bright red.

.
The meat sizzled on the grill, releasing a savory aroma. Pop! The crisp sound of opening beer cans.
The three of us kicked off our first evening at the pension with a barbecue party.
Maybe it was from all the splashing around in the sea, but the meat and beer went down easy for everyone. Even Da-bin, who doesn't eat much, was keeping up. She'd probably burned a ton of energy dealing with the two of us.
Anyway, Jun-seo and I clinked glasses with Da-bin, trying to get her a little tipsy. It'd be easier to pull off netorase with some alcohol in her system than stone-cold sober.
As the buzz started to hit and everyone loosened up, Jun-seo tossed out a new topic.
"Da-bin. So how'd you find out about Do-yoon's netorase kink?"
He asked her in a serious tone. Gone was the playful vibe from the car ride here. The guy's a chameleon.
With just subtle shifts in his voice, he controlled the mood effortlessly.
Seeing Jun-seo back to his old self, Da-bin responded with equal seriousness.
"Well... Do-yoon oppa got caught reading netorase manga by me."
"So Do-yoon confessed to you then?"
Jun-seo turned to me.
What's this guy's angle...?
"Yeah, I told Da-bin about it right then."
"You two are couple goals. Honestly, Da-bin, I'll come clean—oppa likes netorase too."
"Huh?"
Da-bin's eyes went wide at Jun-seo's sudden confession. I hadn't seen that coming either.
Jun-seo leaned toward her, continuing.
I listened quietly.
"Da-bin, it might be hard to understand, but all guys have netorase fantasies."
"..."
"It's like an instinct kicking in. Etched into our genes or something."
"..."
Jun-seo spoke in a calm, steady voice. Da-bin listened intently, her expression grave.
"When a guy sees his girlfriend with another man, he feels jealousy—but it turns him on even more. She looks even prettier, and he wants to rip her away from that guy and claim her right then and there..."
"I don't fully get the mechanism myself. But sometimes I think about it. Guys want to prove to their woman that they're the manliest one out there—even sharing her with other guys..."
"You know how guys have to win—at games, sports, whatever. That competitive instinct plays out in sex too... Maybe it's just nature's way."
"..."
"Do-yoon probably stumbled on those feelings by chance, owned up to them, and suggested netorase to you."
"..."
"It's awkward for a girl, but you're so sweet for going along with it... Ye-na couldn't accept it."
Jun-seo confessed something even I didn't know. He'd admitted his netorase fetish to Ye-na too, and she'd rejected him. Was that why they broke up...?
"That's why I'm so jealous of you two couples."
Jun-seo kept pouring his heart out. The bonfire's gentle glow, his perfectly modulated voice—it made his out-of-left-field confession feel natural in the warm atmosphere. Even if you didn't buy it, the mood pulled you in.
Did he plan this too...?
Park Jun-seo. Not an easy guy to handle.
Da-bin seemed swept up in it, hesitantly speaking.
"Jun-seo oppa... So that's why you and Ye-na broke up?"
"Yeah... that was the trigger."
"Oh... I had no idea..."
"Ye-na wouldn't tell anyone. You might not get it, Da-bin, but for guys, satisfying sexual needs is more important than you'd think... We're kinda pathetic creatures in that way..."
Da-bin glanced at me while listening. Was she picturing me in his words...?
Her eyes, lit by the fire, looked deeper tonight.
As the mood grew heavy, Jun-seo pumped the energy back up.
"We're here to have fun—sorry for the downer talk! Let's cheers!"
Back to netorase mode, proposing a toast like nothing happened.
We raised our cans to his call.
"I confessed my dirty secret, so everyone's doing shots, right?"
"Oppa, shots are..." Da-bin hesitated.
"Yeah, Da-bin can do half."
Jun-seo, ever the smooth operator.
The beer's sharp chill hit just right—maybe amplified by his unexpected confession.
We set our cans down, and he spoke again.
"Hey, Da-bin. Let oppa touch your chest a bit. Don't you feel bad for me?"
Full switch to playboy mode. I'd almost forgotten—his specialty was mood swings.
Maybe from the moment I asked him for netorase help, Da-bin and I had been dancing in the palm of his hand.
Da-bin snapped back to defense mode at his provocation.
"Jun-seo oppa! I already let you in the car today! Still not enough?"
"Haha, you're too pretty, Da-bin. Oppa could go five times today."
"I-I don't know..."
Jun-seo wouldn't let up. Da-bin seemed totally caught in his pace.
"What else, Da-bin? You gotta say yes. Do-yoon's cool with it."
"You guys are all perverts..."
Jun-seo toyed with her. After blushing at his words, Da-bin finally snapped.
Pow! Pow!
Her cat punches hit both me and Jun-seo at once.

"Urk!"
"Agh!"
We howled in agony, testing the limits of our reflexes.
But despite her attacks, Jun-seo's groundwork continued. My urge to cum—and piss—built relentlessly.
"Gonna hit the bathroom."
I couldn't hold it, leaving Da-bin and Jun-seo behind as I headed off.

.
After emptying my booze-filled bladder, I headed back to the barbecue area.
But...
Jun-seo had taken my seat, pressed right up against Da-bin.
I hid behind an outdoor pillar, spying on him.
He kept talking to her. What were they saying...?
Da-bin listened with that serious expression from earlier. The playful vibe had shifted—something felt different.
Instinct screamed danger.
I held my breath, watching intently.
Despite the serious talk, his hand stroked her thigh.
She didn't push it away. No—if anything, she leaned toward him as he spoke.
What sweet nothings is that bastard whispering...?
Her body tilted too far toward him. Then—
His head moved.
!!!!!
He was bringing his mouth to her lips.

Da-bin listened intently to Jun-seo's confession about his own netorase kink. His wistful expression and voice reflected in her eyes.
"Ye-na couldn't accept it."
"That's why I'm so jealous of you two couples."
"Yeah... that was the trigger."
"Guys are kinda pathetic creatures in that way..."
"Guys want to prove to their woman that they're the manliest—even sharing her."
"You know how guys have to win—at games, sports, whatever. That competitive instinct plays out in sex too..."
Her lips went dry.
