I-I Think It's Wrong for Master to Be Aroused… (1)
I-I Think It's Wrong for Master to Be Aroused… (1)
The trial Alice had begun.
Its outcome was...
—Fidget.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Ninomiya. I became carried away."
"No. Your misunderstanding was understandable... I was at fault too."
A dramatic reconciliation between both sides.
...As expected of me, the Second-Round Hypnosis Breeding Guy.
My skill at mediating fights between my wives before my regression hadn't gone anywhere.
My shoulders rose proudly at my own ability.
As an added bonus, I felt grateful to the Chairwoman.
'If I hadn't bought gifts as the Chairwoman advised, they probably wouldn't have reconciled this smoothly.'
After fighting that fiercely, there was no way a barrage of compliments alone would settle everything.
They might seem fine now, yet once they went home, resentment could return: But wasn't that all that bitch's fault?
Women were surprisingly prone to holding grudges.
Thus, gifts.
Cherry-blossom-scented bath salts for Master, who loved baths.
For Alice the Pine Caterpillar, perfume with a fragrance reminiscent of Pine-Needle Snow.
[Here, this is for you. A present. I went out for once and thought of you, Alice, so I bought something you might like.]
[Oh, Yujin~ You thought of me even while you were out? I am delighted.]
[Disciple...?]
[Of course I bought something for Master too. What disciple would ever leave out his master?]
[In light of such admirable sincerity, I have no choice but to accept. Hehe. Truly, my disciple adores me far too much.]
The gifts had targeted their tastes so precisely that both women became much happier.
Thanks to that, they reconciled quickly.
Without the gifts I bought on the Chairwoman's advice, it would have taken longer.
'I was sorry for thinking you were spouting nonsense in a mothball-scented bikini, Big Sis Hayeon!'
Mother Seol. Only now did I understand the depth of your wisdom.
I was sorry for calling it senility and all that.
Next time, I'd bring her a red-ginseng drink or something.
As I vowed to repay her, Alice hesitantly rose.
"Th-then I'll be going. Yujin, your jacket...."
"You can return it later. You can't go back dressed like that."
"...You lend me your jacket rather often, Yujin. Only me. Specially."
"I'm a man, so this much is only natural. In any case, get back safely."
"Hm-heh. Okaaay~."
Alice left while carefully clutching the paper bag containing the perfume.
She must have liked the gift; her pink ponytail swayed with every cheerful bob of her head.
The sight made me proud to have given it to her.
"Then... Master? It is finally just the two of us. The sun is beginning to set as well."
In any case, only Master and I remained in the dormitory.
We cautiously met each other's eyes.
The sun was setting, and Master was dressed as she was.
There was only one thing left for us to do.
-Gulp.
"N-now that only the two of us remain...."
"Yes. I'll begin training before it becomes too late. I'll exercise first, so please change and return."
"......."
I needed to work out. Work out.
* * *
A short while later.
While Master changed, I faced the wall and concentrated on squats.
For nearly thirty minutes. Alone.
"Huff, hoooh...."
'She was late. Was she unable to decide what to wear?'
It was strange.
Normally, Master would be desperate to interfere.
She would act like a personal trainer, saying, "Oh dear, that is not how you do it," or, "Please straighten your shoulders."
Yet she had left me to exercise alone for an entire thirty minutes.
How long could changing clothes possibly take?
No—what was she changing into?
-Step.
"......Disciple."
"Ah, Master. You're done changing?"
Speak of the tiger, and there she was.
I turned around at once.
Master wore a simple dress.
'Huh. That was what took her thirty minutes to put on?'
It was pretty: a white sleeveless dress.
It showed Master's feminine side clearly, which made it wonderful.
Still, I'd expected her to choose something closer to her own taste.
Not this pure and understated style, but something airy and girlish.
She looked genuinely adorable when she happily wore clothes like that.
I was slightly disappointed.
'Maybe her fashion sense hadn't returned yet. Then again, she had worn nothing but hakama for twelve years.'
Naturally, I showed none of that disappointment.
A husband should compliment his wife no matter what she wore. Absolutely.
Especially when the outfit genuinely suited her and looked beautiful.
"Wow, you look incredible! Everything suits you. That is Master for you! I might fall in love!"
I showered her with praise.
She had a surprisingly strong desire for recognition, so I made it blatant.
At my praise, Master should have grinned without hiding her delight, but...
"I'll help you with sit-ups. Come here."
"......?"
I'd expected her to be delighted, but she acted as though she hadn't heard a word.
My eyes, which had remained fixed on her chest, finally examined her face.
The light had vanished from her pupils.
'Huh. Was she angry?'
"Sit-ups are not particularly effec—"
"That is something I can assist with. Lie down. Quickly."
She insisted that I do sit-ups with her, but...
For some reason, I felt slightly afraid.
Master wore an expression I had never seen, even before my regression.
"W-well, the thing is...."
"There's something I wish to discuss with you at length. Eye to eye."
"......Yep."
I couldn't flee merely because I was frightened.
Calming an angry wife was a husband's duty.
Besides, I thought I knew why Master was acting this way.
I obediently sat on the floor.
"Understood. Then I'll begin."
-Plop.
'This had to be about the sow insult. Alice, I'd defend you properly!'
The reason Master acted this way had to be what happened earlier.
Alice had admittedly gone far too harsh with her words.
How could she call our beautiful Master a sow?
I racked my brain for a way to mediate.
'How could I defend Alice while calming Master at the same time...?'
-Plop. Sliiide.
"Here. I'll hold your feet. Come closer."
"......!!!?"
My rapidly turning mind stopped.
For some reason, goosebumps rose across my skin.
"Um, Master. Your underwear is visible through the dress."
"I do not care if you see it. In the first place, you simply need not look."
"I can do them alone without you holding—"
"Come here."
"Eek!"
Beyond mere goosebumps, the instincts of the former S-rank No. 1 screamed a warning.
This was dangerous even for me.
Run away immediately, they urged.
But,
'I couldn't run. Obeying Master was common sense.'
How could I ever defy her?
I approached as though walking into certain death.
In less than three seconds, my calves were tangled in Master's limbs and locked firmly in place.
-Squeeze. Squish.
"Um... Master. Do you truly need to sit on me with your bottom?"
"It is for stabilization."
"Your breasts are touching me too."
"It is for stabilization."
"......."
Her bottom pressed heavily against the tops of my feet.
Her forearms gripped my calves while her breasts touched my knees.
It was far too much physical contact to endure when I couldn't use hypnosis.
Master showed no sign of releasing me.
I'd also promised not to use self-hypnosis while training with her.
Unable to control my lust, I was on the verge of fully drawing the Yujindo...
-Squeeze.
'I had to remember the mothball-scented swimsuit! The Chairwoman acting shamelessly!'
I could not show such a disgraceful sight before Master.
I widened my eyes and summoned the image of the Chairwoman in her swimsuit.
My crumbling self-control returned as if by magic.
"...Yes. Then I leave myself in your hands."
"Raise your body with the count. One. Two. Three."
We quietly began exercising.
Master counted at a rapid tempo.
I performed sit-ups without using any momentum.
Doing them without momentum was more effective...
and more importantly, using momentum would lift my feet.
I wanted to avoid having my toes, trapped beneath her bottom, prod somewhere they should not.
"Hut, hoooh...."
'This was a remarkably effective workout. My calves were going to cramp.'
The training effect was excellent.
Because I'd even loaded my body with mana, sweat soon covered me from head to toe.
"Nineteen... sixty-nine... seventy-four... eighty-nine... eight hundred ninety-two...."
Master merely stared at me with empty eyes.
Contrary to my expectation that she'd complain about Alice's language, she said nothing except numbers.
Not until thirty minutes passed and I collapsed from exhaustion.
"One thousand seven hundred ninety-nine. One thousand eight hundred. Done."
-Plop.
"Hahhh, haaahhh...."
'I endured for thirty whole minutes. Thank you, Big Sis Hayeon!'
The difficult training session finally ended.
Only then did I smile at Master.
My gaze meant, Please release me now, and listen to what I have to say.
Instead, Master gripped my legs even more tightly.
-Squeeeeze.
"M-Master?"
"You worked hard."
She even leaned forward until her body pressed tightly against me, then looked down.
Her breasts flattened against my knees, disarranging her dress and exposing more skin.
If I moved my knees slightly, I could have lifted the hem.
I hurriedly thought of the Chairwoman.
'I had to remember it. That stale, mothball-scented wardrobe....'
"———So which of those two do you like?"
"...!!!?"
The question arrived before I could even summon the Chairwoman.
A strangled breath escaped me.
"Wh-what are you talking about?"
"When I entered my room to change, my phone was filled with notifications. Something about an interview."
"......."
So that was why changing had taken thirty minutes.
She'd been watching the interview.
Her anger wasn't directed at Alice. It was directed at me.
"Which one is it?"
"For me, there are three if I include you, Master...."
"I am not one of them. Who is it?"
-Squish.
She was so angry that she buried her upper body against my calves.
My knee slipped directly between her breasts.
The dress spread open to either side, exposing the undersides of her breasts.
"M-Master!!? I can almost see all of your brea—"
"Don't change the subject. Who is it? Alice? Yoo Sia?"
Master paid no attention.
She merely stared at me and demanded an answer.
Blood rapidly gathered in one place.
'At this rate...!!'
-Flail flail.
"Let me go! I'm reaching my limit!!"
"I told you to say which one you like. Why can't you answer? Who is it?"
My cry was desperate. Her demand remained unchanged.
She would not release me until I told the truth.
"That is... well...."
'Telling her would be a disaster!!'
Revealing the truth in any form meant ruin.
What if I said I liked Master?
Master's possessiveness was the strongest in the world. A harem would become impossible.
What if I named one specific person?
I'd survive for now, but the path to ever being with Master would close forever.
Even in the First Round, she'd barely confessed by saying, "If there were only one, I'd have given up. But because there are two, perhaps I can...."
Master wasn't the type to intrude upon a devoted couple.
What if I said I liked all three?
She would split me in half. Certain death.
It was checkmate.
'What could I do...?'
"Heeh. Thinking about that person made this happen."
"......!!!!!?"
I didn't even have time to think deeply.
The heavy presence in my lower body made it painfully clear that I'd failed to hold back.
How did Master react when she noticed?
"Should I now ask why you are displaying something filthy, just as my disciple said?"
"Eek!!!"
She was smiling, yet it wasn't a smile at all.
I'd never seen that expression in my life.
'To escape this situation... did I have no choice?'
-Grit.
I clenched my teeth.
I abandoned the naive hope of escaping without suffering any loss.
Even if the cost was enormous, I needed to calm Master's anger.
'It was still far too early, but that was fine. I could do it.'
And so I...
filled my heart with grim resolve.
After drawing a deep breath...
"It cannot be helped. As your master...."
"———It Is Master's Fault for Turning Me On!!!!!!"
-Ding!
[Activating skill 'Complete Hypnosis'!]
"...What?"
I threw down the gauntlet before the world's strongest.
