Chapter 155: Revenge
Chapter 155: Revenge
“I-I was just teasing. My room was right next to theirs, you see. As for being that fired up… well, that’s just how I always am.”
The moment the words left his mouth, Guwon knew he’d messed up. He quickly glanced at Sara, and maybe it was just his imagination, but her shoulders, hidden beneath her hood, seemed to slump.
“Ah, no! I mean! I was as passionate as ever! I’m always at my peak when I’m with you all! I love you!”
“Wh-What are you shouting so loudly in a public place for!”
As Guwon shouted with reckless abandon, Diana gave his head a light knock. Then, blowing on her hand as if it hurt, she glared at him.
Hey, you’re the one who hit me. Why are you glaring?
Still, it seemed his heartfelt cry had convinced them.
Leia, too, returned to her usual warm expression, smiling sweetly as she healed Diana’s fist.
That expression suits my angel the best.
Of course, her slightly pouting face is pitifully cute, but if even my angel gets upset, the oasis in my heart will dry up.
Anyway, after all that, we were finally able to go hunting.
The hunt proceeded without a hitch, just like yesterday, to the point where it felt like tedious, repetitive labor.
At our skill level, we should be seeking out Transcendent Species to test the waters, and even aiming for the next floor.
But Guwon hadn’t done so yet.
Hunting for a Transcendent Species could lead to unexpected trouble and disrupt their daily routine.
This was a golden opportunity—staying in the room next to Pots's party, with a similar daily schedule. For now, he wanted to focus on helping Sara get her revenge.
When evening came and they went to the dining hall, Pots and Kate were already eating.
Didn't you guys wake up later than us?
Are they even hunting properly? Or is this normal for adventurers? Are we the ones who are grinding too hard? Well, not that I really care.
In any case, this was good. Guwon listened in on their conversation while he ate.
“Don’t worry. You saw me fight earlier. Yesterday, my body felt strangely weak, but today’s different. I’ll be sure to satisfy you.”
“Alright. Then let’s eat quickly and go to our room.”
“Haha. My pretty little thing. Why are you so worked up? Can’t you wait?”
Pots said with a satisfied smile at Kate’s impatient words.
Don’t get too happy. She’s not worked up because of you.
Unlike Pots, who continued eating with a pleased smile, Kate barely touched her food and kept rushing him.
Well, she’s probably been like that all day. Of course she’s antsy.
It’s a wonder they finished hunting without any problems. And it’s just the two of them. Are they more skilled than they look?
Anyway, at this rate, she’ll soon realize that Pots alone can never satisfy her. That’s when I’ll make my move.
Guwon reviewed the plan in his head one more time as he watched the pair head upstairs.
But a plan was a plan, and he had something to take care of first.
Tonight was Diana’s turn, but Guwon was currently sitting in his room alone.
Diana had shown jealousy in the morning, but since then, she had started avoiding his gaze again.
How long is she going to be shy?
As it dragged on this long, he started to think she wasn't avoiding him simply out of shyness.
If that was the case, there was only one other possibility.
The kiss.
He didn’t know exactly what a kiss meant to Diana, but judging from her usual reactions, he could guess it held great significance.
She had made a statement that was practically permission for such an act.
So is she in the middle of that ‘mental preparation’ she mentioned? Or does she regret making such a rash statement, caught up in the mood?
No, she can’t be regretting it. She showed she was jealous this morning, after all. My guess that Diana likes me must be correct.
In that case, maybe I should take action myself.
Deciding to go to Diana since she wasn’t coming no matter how long he waited, he opened the door.
And there she was, standing right in front of it, hesitating.
“You… came.”
It seemed she had no intention of skipping her turn, at least.
Guwon took Diana’s arm and sat her down on the bed.
“Diana. We need to talk.”
“Wh-What is it? Such a serious face, it doesn’t suit you. Cease this. That expression on you is…”
Diana still wouldn’t meet his eyes, trying to pass it off as a joke, but Guwon didn’t let her.
“I am being serious. Why have you been avoiding me so much lately?”
“A-Avoiding you? Me? When have I ever…” “Ever since the last time we slept together. Look. You’re not even looking me in the eye right now.”
Guwon cupped her face in his hands, forcing her to look at him, but she still averted her eyes, avoiding his gaze.
“Is it because you promised me a kiss? Do you regret it? Getting swept up in the moment and making a promise like that with someone like me? If that’s it, just tell me straight. I can take it.”
“Th-That is not it! It is… not so!”
At Guwon’s words, Diana looked flustered, on the verge of tears.
Phew. What a relief. I said I’d accept it, but if she’d really said she regretted it, my mental state would have taken a serious hit.
“I-I also…! But…!”
“It’s okay. Tell me. What’s bothering you?”
“You have no idea what it means to kiss me!”
“I don’t care if I have no idea. Whatever it means, I can accept it all.”
At Guwon’s unwavering declaration, Diana’s eyes trembled violently.
But some fear seemed to remain, as she hesitated to explain what a kiss with her meant, muttering things like, “But… still…”
Right. I shouldn’t push her too hard here. I’ll give her a little grace period. She did say she needed to prepare herself.
“Diana, listen carefully. You can tell me what the kiss means when you’re ready. But remember this one thing. Whatever it means, I can accept it all. In fact, I feel like kissing you right this very moment. So you don’t need to worry about a thing. Got it? So stop avoiding me. When you do that, it feels like you hate me, and it makes me sad. You know what I mean, right?”
As Guwon spoke, he reached out his thumb and gently brushed it across her lower lip. Diana’s expression grew hazy. It was a look filled with a mix of emotions—part touched, part on the verge of tears.
“I… understand.”
But now, one thing was certain.
Diana hadn’t promised a kiss just because she was caught up in the moment. She liked him enough to be this serious and conflicted about it.
The kiss was postponed again, but just confirming that fact made this conversation worthwhile.
Guwon, now in high spirits, shouted.
“Alright. That’s enough serious talk. Now, shall we get down to business?”
“…Business?”
“Sex, of course! Sex!”
At Guwon’s shout, Diana’s hazy expression instantly crumbled.
“Y-You! After setting such a mood, that’s how you end it!”
“What? Am I wrong? That’s why you came here, isn’t it?”
“How did I…! How did I ever fall for a man like this…!”
“So, you’re not going to do it?”
“I will! Of course I will!”
Diana stomped her foot, as if deeply wronged.
Sorry, Diana. It’s not that I don’t understand how you feel, but I just can’t keep up a sappy mood like that for too long.
Of course, I wasn’t lying about what I said earlier. Every word came straight from the heart.
Still, that’s a separate issue from my personality being what it is.
“Then let’s do it. You washed up, right?”
“Well, I did wash up, but…!”
“See? You came fully prepared. Then right away…”
Guwon slipped his hands under Diana’s armpits, lifted her up, and walked toward the wall.
“W-Wait! Where are you going!”
Diana’s body went rigid as she cried out.
Are you worried I’m going to do some exhibitionism again? Sorry, but that’s not the plan for today. Or wait, in the sense that I’m showing off for someone else, I guess you could call it a type of exhibitionism?
“You were jealous this morning, weren’t you? When I said I was so on fire with Sara that the next room could hear. So I’ll do the same for you. I’ll prove that I’m always on fire when I’m with you.”
“N-No! There’s no need for that! Even without it, I believe you enough…!” “Aw, don’t be shy.”
“I-I am not being shy!”
She’s enjoying this but still playing hard to get.
Excited, Guwon proceeded to strip off Diana’s clothes.
He tossed the removed clothes carelessly onto the floor and brought his hand to her pussy, but as expected, she wasn’t wet yet.
But Guwon knew the magic words to make her wet in an instant.
“By the way, Diana. Do you remember?”
“R-Remember what?”
“That the room on the other side of this wall is where Pots and Kate are staying. You remember, right? I said it was next door.”
The moment Guwon said that, Diana flinched and her body trembled.
“Wh-Why are you suddenly bringing that up?”
“It seems they heard me and Sara. Which means, from now on, the sounds we make will also…”
“Hh, hngh.”
Diana’s eyes welled with tears as she bit her lip hard, making a sound as if holding something back.
But her body was honest.
From Diana’s sex, which he had been gently caressing, the amount of slick suddenly increased dramatically.
“Excited? You’ve gotten incredibly wet all of a sudden.”
As Guwon moved his fingers, deliberately making loud squelching sounds, Diana’s face instantly turned red all the way to the tips of her ears.
“I-It’s because your hand feels good…!”
“Is that really the only reason?”
“Th-Then what other reason could there be!”
She’ll die before she admits she’s an exhibitionist.
Guwon felt the urge to tease Diana more until she admitted it, but he soon gave up.
…Ah, whatever. I’ll let it slide today.
She just made a big confession, after all. No need to rush this part too.
Guwon supported Diana’s hips and pushed his member into her.
“Hieugh!”
Watching Diana cling to him, her body trembling, Guwon said mischievously.
“When I was with Sara, we kissed deeply in this position.”
Normally, bringing up another woman’s name during an act like this was taboo, but Guwon said it deliberately, as a provocation.
He was hoping that a simple comment like this might hasten Diana’s decision.
“Hieugh!”
Diana’s eyes welled up, her expression tinged with sadness.
Guwon gently brought his face closer to hers.
“Hnngh!”
Did the provocation about Sara work? Or was it because of the heartfelt conversation they’d just had?
Even as she stared at Guwon’s approaching face, Diana didn’t turn away.
This time, she couldn’t block him with her hands. Both of her arms were wrapped tightly around Guwon’s back, clinging to him.
“…Hueh?”
Just before their lips could touch, Guwon turned his head slightly and kissed Diana’s cheek.
Not yet. No, not like this. After all this anticipation, I can’t let it happen so anticlimactically.
Our first kiss will be when you initiate it yourself.
As if his thoughts had reached her, Diana also leaned in and pressed a kiss to Guwon’s cheek.
As Diana pecked at his cheek, making little kissing sounds like a bird, he could almost hear her unspoken apology for not being ready to kiss him just yet.
How much time passed as he and Diana became absorbed in the act, stickily kissing each other’s cheeks?
As their movements grew more intense, Diana forgot her shame about the room next door and began to moan loudly.
Bang! Bang!
Just as he was about to go for the final spurt, someone started pounding violently on the door.
Huh? What’s this? Sara or Leia wouldn’t come by at this hour.
Still connected to Diana, Guwon headed for the door.
“Hyeht! W-Wait! You! Are you insane!”
“It’s fine. I’ll just stick my head out a little and check.”
“B-But still…!”
“If you make too much noise, we’ll be found out.”
Saying that, Guwon opened the door a crack.
Diana instantly fell silent.
She was so desperate to stay quiet that she was biting down hard on Guwon’s shoulder, stifling any sound.
