"Al, already in that kind of relationship?"
"Is that so surprising? A grown man and woman sharing their love."
"N-No way... Hehe..."
She was a tougher opponent than expected.
They were already in that kind of relationship.
And it was each other's first time, no less.
In this world, where people were sexually conservative, that was a significant advantage.
If she had been even a little more skilled in this kind of battle, it really would have been a hard fight.
"Why the long face? You look pretty flustered."
"Oh, no... I was just a bit surprised that you two have such a deep relationship, beyond my imagination. Hehe..."
"Now that you know we're in that kind of relationship, how about gracefully backing off?"
"Oh my... But didn't you say earlier that you're not really lovers? I thought you said it wasn't anything special..."
"...Tch."
It seemed like her trump card, but her inexperience was all too clear.
Getting caught by her own words. If she had boldly claimed they'd had sex and were lovers from the start, I wouldn't have stood a chance.
No matter how thick-skinned you are, could you wedge yourself between lovers who've even shared their first experiences?
She'd have no ground to stand on even if I swung my sword at her.
'Still, virgin-for-virgin sex exchange but not lovers...'
It was a rare relationship in this world.
In the previous world, you might think sex friends or something, but here it made you wonder what exactly had happened between them.
...Come to think of it, that means this woman has slept with this man...
-Gulp
'How good must he taste for her to guard him this fiercely...'
Popular spots don't get repeat customers for nothing. An irresistible urge to try him just once welled up.
"...Sir. How about we set aside the formalities for a moment and have an honest talk?"
"Hm... Let's hear what you want to say."
"Did he taste good?"
-Slurp
When I came to, my mouth was already full of saliva.
"...I'll answer once you let go of that hand."
"Huh? My hand?"
I looked down at her words.
-Grope, grope
"Th-That tickles..."
Without realizing it, my hand was groping his body in my embrace.
'If I could just fuck him once, I'd have no regrets.'
No matter how drunk I was, this instinctively seductive body language, the sweet fragrance emanating from him naturally—it was no exaggeration to say he was born to tempt women.
It even made sense why he wore that strange cloak and hid his face.
I was certain he'd be in big trouble if he flaunted it openly.
'...Hold on.'
What if...
"...Sir. You two did consent to the relationship, right...?"
"..."
"Sir...?"
"O-Of course. You didn't think one of us raped the other, did you? Th-That couldn't be."
Something seemed extremely suspicious, but I decided to believe it for now.
Well, if it had really been rape, they wouldn't be out drinking together.
"Then answer me this. Did he taste good?"
I imagined the man in my arms writhing in pleasure, moaning softly.
-Drool
Saliva dripped from my mouth.
'What does "did he taste good" even mean?'
First, I needed to pry that shameless hand off him. I said I'd answer if she let go, but I didn't know the exact meaning.
Let's think calmly.
In this situation, it couldn't mean food tasted good.
We'd talked about having a relationship, so applying that here...
-Flush
'D-Do people use that phrase these days?'
It probably meant "did it feel good?" or something like that.
I vaguely recalled hearing thugs during the war-torn times talk about whom they'd fucked and how it tasted.
'Hoo...'
I calmed my racing heart and cleared my mind with inner energy.
I couldn't lose ground here.
Act leisurely, like we were already deeply involved.
"Delicious. So much so that I regret not knowing about this sooner in life."
I endured the burning in my face as I spoke.
"H-How big was his dick, exactly...?"
'D-Dick?'
It was hard to believe that word came from such a beauty's mouth.
'Even if she's a tavern girl, casually saying something like...'
"Why should I tell you that?"
I feigned nonchalance, putting on a relaxed expression.
I could feel the momentum shifting in my favor.
"P-Please. Just answer a few questions, and I'll back off gracefully..."
"Ahem. Fine, I'll tell you."
I used the table and my hand to describe the size of his member I'd seen back then.
"Th-That big?"
"Yes."
"He looks small-bodied, but surprisingly impressive..."
-Lick
The sight of her wetting her lips with her tongue was unpleasant.
Thinking she was imagining that made me want to draw my sword right then.
'...Hoo.'
But I couldn't draw just because of a thought.
I steadied my heart, gazing at him still swaying drunkenly...
"...Where did he go?"
"Huh? He's right next to me..."
He was gone.
"Wh-What?! Where'd he go?!"
"Weren't you holding him?!"
"You said to let go if I wanted to hear the answer! I set him down for a moment, and in that time, he vanished?!"
We both postponed clearing the table and jumped up to search for him urgently.
"Hic."
While the two women conversed, Dan Yuseong had slipped away and was wandering the tavern.
Having drunk too much, his body felt heavy, his balance wrecked, yet he staggered about openly advertising, "I'm drunk!"
"...Sir? Are you looking for something?"
"Oh? Staff. Hehe."
"Y-You seem really wasted, sir."
"What I'm looking for? Yeah."
His large cloak hid his figure and face, but his drunken outbursts and intensified body scent made the waitress's heart race.
"Where's the restroom?"
Dan Yuseong crossed his legs and hunched over like he desperately needed to pee.
The woman momentarily thought of something else she wanted to pull out for him, but
"Hey! What are you doing? Hurry up and bring it!"
"Y-Yes..."
Her senior's shout snapped her back, and she barely directed him to the restroom.
After returning, he meant to head straight back, but
"Where did I come from again...?"
Forgetting where he'd emerged from, he began wandering the tavern.
"Hey, sis. Can I have a sip of this?"
"Uh, s-sure. Go ahead."
"Whoa..."
Not only was he bewitching the staff,
"What? No refill? Why are you staring over there?"
"S-Sorry!"
he was even bothering other customers, leaving the staff puzzled on how to handle it when
"What's going on? Why is everyone like this?"
"D-Deputy manager!"
The deputy manager, who had finished the shift duties in the manager's stead, appeared.
She'd heard from the other staff that a customer was causing trouble,
"...Sigh. Where's the manager off to at a time like this...?"
sighing as she headed toward the nuisance customer.
It was perfectly timed misfortune: as he roamed disrupting the place, he got into an altercation with another patron. Normally, Dan Yuseong would kneel and apologize to defuse it, but both were heavily drunk now,
"You bastard need a punch to sober up!"
"Kyaa!"
a burly man swinging at him,
-Thud
"Sir. Violence is prohibited in our establishment."
just as the deputy manager spotted them and lightly blocked the man's arm.
"And who the hell are you?"
"I'm the deputy manager."
"A deputy barking orders at customers?! Don't you know the customer is king?!"
"Sir."
Her originally black eyes turned blood-red.
"Violence is prohibited in our establishment. If there's an issue, please resolve it through talk."
"Tch! Damn it! Ruining my buzz."
Sensing her chilling aura, the man irritably turned and left.
"Hoo."
The deputy manager turned to the troublesome customer.
-Squeeze
"Whoa... So cool..."
Before she knew it, arms were wrapped around her waist.
"..."
Considering her usual temperament, any other man doing this would have a broken nose instantly,
"Sir. Do you know where your companion is?"
"Companion...?"
Uncharacteristically, she carefully pried him from her waist.
"Did you come alone? Do you remember where you were drinking?"
"Uh... I had companions... Ah! There was a sis called the manager!"
"The manager...?"
Only then did she realize this was the customer the manager had mentioned earlier, and she turned back toward the entrance to guide him.
The manager, who had separated from the Sword Empress to search for him, spotted him and immediately snatched him from the deputy manager, cradling him.
"Sir! You're safe! No other staff touched you in the meantime, right?!"
"Don't spin me... Dizzy..."
The deputy manager sighed inwardly, watching from the side.
And then
-Ding
"...Is the manager here?"
The door opened, and a hooded woman entered the tavern.
"Manager! Someone's looking for you..."
"Haa... Haa... I'm seriously addicted... Just fucking him once would fulfill all my wishes..."
"...Sigh."
The deputy manager sighed and approached the woman instead.
"Hello, I'm the deputy manager. What business do you have with the manager...?"
-Whoosh
The closer she got, the stronger the chilling energy grew.
Cold killing intent began filling the entrance.
-Flash!
Both the deputy and manager sensed the intent and distanced themselves when the hooded woman's mouth opened.
"...Yuseong?"
In a voice as bone-chilling as the bitterest winter cold.
