You're Gonna Be Really Stressed (1)
You're Gonna Be Really Stressed (1)
"Heuk... Al, already... can't take it...♥"
As the morning sunlight pierced through the night sky, Scarlet's body, which had been barely clinging to me, stretched out limply.
Daylight had already broken.
"Huu..."
I'd said I would, but in the end, last night I didn't let Scarlet sleep even for a single moment.
Thanks to that, the bed—big enough for five or six people to lie down comfortably—was soaked damp all over.
"How many times was it...?"
Fondling the breasts of the passed-out Scarlet and recalling, it felt like we'd easily gone over ten.
On top of that, her sweat-soaked body was covered in handprints, kiss marks, and bite marks.
Between her legs, semen that had overflowed from her fully filled womb was still leaking out.
"...Isn't this too much, Hero?"
Damn, I'm awesome.
As I found myself thinking that without realizing it, sure enough, Clare—in her cat form—leaped up onto the bed.
"What do you mean? She enjoyed it too."
"Well, from what I remember, from the midpoint on, you were forcibly waking up the passed-out Scarlet."
"Haha, gotta have a reaction for it to be fun for me."
"You even used recovery magic to keep going when she said she couldn't take anymore."
"What can I do if she's worn out."
"Jeez... It's a first for me since being born—feeling sorry for a woman throwing herself at you, Hero. If I could turn human, I would've jumped in."
"Sorry, but I'm only interested in women."
"And I consider myself a woman?"
What bullshit. Since when do swords have a gender?
I'm not denying Clare's ego or personality, but come on, that's a stretch.
So... I pulled myself out of the bed.
If I kept this conversation going, I'd end up lost in some philosophical abyss like 'What is humanity?'
"It's not like you're getting a reaction again from groping her breasts, right?"
"...Can't deny that. They're real top-shelf quality, you know."
"What a troublesome Hero. Covering such premium tits with bruises and bite marks..."
"Haha, that's what makes 'em even more perfect now. But honestly, can't go any further than this."
As we bantered like that while walking, the beautiful living room bathed in morning sunlight filled my view.
...Not sure if you can even call it a living room.
Anyway.
"Hmm, that pool... no, poolside, was it?"
Scarlet would turn pale if she heard, but the truth was, even after a night packed with raw sex, I wasn't tired at all.
If anything, it felt a bit lacking. I wanted to sweat more.
Say what you will, but I hadn't had much chance to sweat over the past three years.
Maybe sensing my mood, Clare had quietly followed along beside me before I knew it.
"I took a quick look last night, and this poolside has a few features."
"Yeah? Like what?"
"Most are for creating a fancy atmosphere, but there's one I figured you'd be interested in, Hero."
"So what is it?"
"The function that circulates the water in this pool. Hmm... Easier to just show you."
"Alright, go for it."
No sooner had the words left my mouth than Clare headed back inside.
Standing there gazing at the crystal-clear water sparkling in the sunlight...
—Woooung...!
I heard something whirring from below the pool.
At the same time, the water—which had been still like a clean mirror—began to slowly flow from left to right.
—Kwaaaa...!!
"Whoa...?"
The once-calm pool now had raging currents surging through it.
What to call it... like they'd cut out the fiercest rapids from a waterfall and pasted them here.
Why the hell does it have a feature like this? Didn't matter.
"Haha, guess I'll get a real workout today?"
Without a moment's hesitation, I threw myself right into the center of the torrent.
"Mm... Master... Hyeondo... please... no more...?"
Startled by her own murmuring voice in her sleep, perhaps.
Scarlet snapped her eyes open and propped up her upper body.
What she did next was immediately check her body and the surroundings.
"Whoa... how many times did we go...?"
Her voice came out mixed with a hollow laugh, but a bright smile hung on Scarlet's lips.
The vivid traces of passion left on her body.
To the current Scarlet, they were no different from stigmata... but.
"...What time is it now?!"
Even an S-Class Hunter was ultimately just an office worker.
The refreshed feeling right after waking up was no good omen—it was a bad sign, nothing less.
Scarlet frantically patted around here and there, searching for something, when an unfamiliar voice rang out.
"11 a.m. Also, I went ahead and recovered your exhausted body. Ah, but I left the marks intact—better that way, right?"
"Kyaa?! Ah, C-Clare... Wait, you healed my body...?"
"I'm the holy sword forged by the goddess herself, so that's a given. And... I didn't want to intrude on someone else's private life if I could help it, but I handled the contact from your Team Leader."
"Neeeh?!"
Scarlet hurriedly turned on her phone.
Right away, the text history between Clare—impersonating Scarlet—and the Team Leader jumped into her eyes.
Various messages had gone back and forth, but the one that mattered to Scarlet was just a single line.
"Got it. Continue with your current mission. Nothing unusual...?"
"By the way, the Hero and I aren't bothered at all. We've known from the start."
"R-Right... haa..."
"Hmm... That doesn't sound like a sigh of relief?"
"Yeah. Every time I hear talk of missions or work, it feels like the time I spent with Master—the affection he showered on me—gets tainted."
"A rare breed of loyal bitch. Obsession level maxed. Big upvote."
"Th-Thanks...? Big upvote...?"
—Ding~
As they chatted, a new text message arrived on Scarlet's phone.
"If you judge the mission complete, come to the Future Strategy Cluster with the target... Hmm."
"The target's the Hero, I assume, and Future Strategy Cluster? What's that?"
"Simply put, it's where Changseong makes hunters. Training, education, gear development, ability enhancement... basically a research complex cum training ground."
"Hmm, so they're gonna make us work for the money spent."
"Well... yeah. With yesterday's spending nearing 10 billion..."
"Looks like we need more details."
"Yeah."
Scarlet immediately called her direct superior, Team Leader 1.
After exactly two rings, the familiar voice of the Team Leader came through.
"You're calling, so I take it the mission's complete?"
"To say that, I need more details. Team Leader-nim, what do you plan to do at the Cluster?"
"Simple. Make him work for the money we spent yesterday."
"So exactly what kind of work?"
"Go to the Cluster for work, do Cluster work. You know that already."
"Anything else...?"
"Anything else is none of your business. This is the Chairman's orders."
"...Understood."
"Can you bring him?"
"Not sure yet. I'll contact you again."
"Alright."
Hanging up, Scarlet looked back at Clare sitting in front of her.
But since Scarlet hesitated to speak first, Clare opened her mouth instead.
"The contract Lee Yong-jae made with the Hero is straightforward. Lend his power when Changseong requests it or if he feels like it. Something along those lines."
"Really...?"
"So don't worry and tell the Hero. Above all, didn't he say he'd work for what he got?"
"Oh, right. He did. Definitely. Then first, to Master..."
"The Hero's at the poolside."
"Hehe, thanks. I couldn't have made that call without you, Clare-nim."
With that, Scarlet also slipped out of the bed.
Draped only in a robe, she passed through the wide hallway, beyond the palace-like living room cum reception area.
The moment she stepped out onto the balcony with Seoul's skyline sprawling below her feet.
—Kwaaaa...!!
"M-Master...?"
All that entered Scarlet's eyes was the poolside turned waterfall.
Her master, Hyeondo, was nowhere to be seen.
'No way he's in there...?'
The sudden thought sent a chill down Scarlet's spine.
Even she, called superhuman, couldn't guarantee survival in that torrent.
However.
—Pshaa!
As if mocking her ominous premonition, something burst up from the white foam.
"Puha!"
"Master...?"
—Splash!
Hyeondo, spraying water as he leaped, vanished back below the surface.
After about ten minutes of diving and surfacing repeatedly.
Hyeondo shot up from underwater like a rocket and landed right in front of Scarlet.
"Haha, you're up?"
"Normal people climb out of pools, but that common sense doesn't apply to you... Kyaa?!"
"I'm just that impressive."
Hyeondo naturally slipped off Scarlet's robe and scooped her up in a hug.
Of course, Scarlet gladly nestled into her master's arms, wrapping her legs around his waist like she'd never let go.
"Haa... Master, you loved me so much last night... not sick of it yet...?"
"Seeing you makes the urge pop up every time. And I'm the honest type with my desires."
"Nngh...! J-Just hearing that...!"
"Anyway... looks like there's stuff to talk about, but I can hear it while fucking your ass, right? Last night was all about being sweet."
"Yes...♥ Front or back, fuck me whenever you want...♥"
"Hahaha."
Chairman, Team Leader, company, whatever.
To Scarlet, only her Master mattered.
"Maaaster, Maaaster!! Cumming! Cumming while getting my ass fucked!!!"
