Chapter 504: Aftermath
Chapter 504: Aftermath
“Let’s call it a day. Guwon. You can go on ahead.”
In the end, nothing else happened after that.
I watched the three of them practice swimming for a little while longer, and then, just as it was getting close to dinnertime, Sara suddenly spoke to me.
“Huh? By myself?”
“Yes.”
Sara simply nodded once at my question.
…Seriously? Is that it? I was asking for a reason.
“Since we’re already in the bathroom, we’re going to wash up here before we go.”
As I stood there dumbfounded, Leia explained with a slightly apologetic look.
She seemed to feel bad about using the bathroom while leaving me out.
If she felt that bad, she could have just let me join them.
But it seemed even an angel like her found it difficult to suggest we all bathe together in a situation like this.
After all, it wasn't just my women who were here.
“Oh, really? Then I’ll just wash up with you.”
Of course, I knew that, but I said it shamelessly anyway.
If I said it like it was the most natural thing in the world, they might just let it slide…
“Are you serious right now?”
As expected, things didn't go that smoothly.
But I wouldn't be a man if I gave up here.
“Why not?! We’re all comfortable enough with each other to see each other naked! The only one who might have a problem is Vanessa, and I’m sure she has no interest in my naked body! And she wouldn't mind me seeing hers, either! Right, Vanessa?”
“No. I refuse.”
“…Hey, Vanessa. There’s no need to bend your principles just to be considerate of others. Take a moment to reflect on just how emotionless you usually are…”
“I refuse.”
Kuh! Dammit! It was a mistake to include her just because I think the more beauties, the merrier, even if she’s not one of my women!
If it weren’t for Vanessa, I could be washing up with everyone right now!
In that moment, an idea flashed into my mind.
Vanessa’s position was that of a butler.
If I were to insist that she wash up later and that we go first… Tch. Of course, if I said that, it wouldn't be entirely impossible.
But that would make me too much of a scumbag.
Her master, Diana, was planning to bathe with them, and I, a nobody in comparison, would be telling the butler to get out.
It’s one thing to give in to my desires, but I didn’t want to stoop that low.
“……”
“……”
I had a brief staring contest with Vanessa, but in the end, I decided to give up on trying to do anything about her.
Of course, that didn’t mean I had given up entirely.
I’ll struggle to the very end!
“B-But it feels a little gross for me to leave in this state. At least let me take a shower…!”
“Hmm. I see. In fact, I was just thinking of changing all the water in the bath. We can’t very well use the same water we’ve been swimming in all day, can we? It will take some time… but if you’re alright with that, you may use it afterward. We shall wait for you in the changing room.”
“…No. You guys just use it. On second thought, I think I’ll just dry myself off and go wash up in my room.”
You cheap bastard. If you put it like that, I can’t keep whining.
In the end, thanks to the assassin named Vanessa, my dream of a naked party was once again thwarted.
Her refusal just now seemed incredibly instantaneous. Don’t tell me she’s holding a grudge just because I played with her toes a little?
If that’s the case… it’s a shame to lose and retreat like this, so I’ll just have to try more skinship and tease her even more in the future.
You’d better be ready. The moment I found your weakness, your defeat was sealed. Kehehe.
With the typical thoughts of a loser on the run, I had no choice but to leave the bathroom behind.

“Phew. Dinner was especially good tonight. I wonder if it’s because we ate after getting some light exercise?”
Having washed up before the meal, Sara came straight to the room with me afterward and seemed to be in a very good mood.
Just like a country girl… no. Judging by that toned, slender body of hers, fit for a model, Sara must enjoy working out.
Well, it seemed that wasn’t the only reason she was in a good mood.
The moment we were alone and away from prying eyes, Sara clung to my arm and started rubbing her cheek against my shoulder.
It’s rare for her to be this proactive with physical affection.
Is this also proof that the aftereffects of her age regression are still lingering?
Come to think of it, ever since Sara’s age regression, we’ve barely had a chance to be alone like this.
If I had to pinpoint a time, it was once when we went to the restroom, but a lot happened then, so it wasn’t the right atmosphere for this at all.
“Maybe. For that reason, you’ll have to help me out again tomorrow.”
“…You just want to see us in those tight outfits, don’t you?”
“‘Just’?! That’s not it at all!”
“The fact that you’re only denying the ‘just’ part means you do want to see it.”
“Kuh! What a slip-up! My honesty will be the death of me!”
“You really are such a pervert.”
Since I’d already been found out during the day, I said it jokingly, and Sara, too, seemed to have no intention of pressing the matter further, simply giving my side a light pinch.
“A pervert? What a hurtful thing to say. By that logic, you’re a pervert too, Sara. You’re the one who said you wanted to use the Saint’s skills.”
“Hmph. It’s not because I’m a pervert. I’m just curious to see how you’d react.”
In response to my counterattack, Sara stuck her tongue out slightly in a teasing expression and replied without a hint of panic.
No, being curious about how a big guy like me would react to the Saint’s skills… that’s plenty perverted in itself…
Well, to be precise, she probably just wants to get one over on me.
“Do you want to beat me that badly, Sara? I can understand Diana, but why you?”
“…So you understand why Diana would do it.”
At my question, Sara looked at me with an expression of disbelief, as if she couldn’t even muster the energy to be jealous.
Well… even I have to admit that I sometimes take my teasing of Diana a little too far.
I seriously thought it was all over when Vanessa caught us.
Though, I have been holding back quite a bit since then.
“Anyway, give it up for today. I’m going to torment you thoroughly tonight and not let you sleep.”
“…Hh. What? Don’t tell me you’re all worked up from touching Matilda’s body in the bathroom?”
When I declared I would torment her, Sara’s face flushed slightly, but she still shot me a sharp glare as she spoke.
“No, no. It’s for your age regression treatment. Diana said it too, remember? That it might not just be the effect of Healing Sex, but the act of sex itself could help you separate me from your grandfather in your mind, aiding your recovery.”
“Ah… come to think of it, she did say something like that.”
“What, you forgot? You’re not faking it even though you’re all better, are you?”
“O-Of course not! Why would I…!”
“Because you love me so much you don’t want to be apart?”
“Y-You idiot!”
Sara didn’t deny that she loved me so much she didn’t want to be apart, instead just smacking my arm lightly.
And this time, she didn’t channel mana into her hand, so it didn’t even hurt.
“Ah…”
After swatting my arm petulantly for a moment, Sara suddenly stopped, as if she had noticed something on her hand.
Her gaze was fixed on the back of her own hand. There, a very dark Apostle’s Seal covered its surface.
“…Hey. Guwon.”
“Yeah?”
“Since I can prevent that state by using the knife that tells me if you’re nearby, this seal… back on my butt… N-No! It’s not like that! It’s just… because that’s the first place you put it…!”
Sara started speaking in a quiet tone, but when she saw me listening with a pleased expression, her face turned red midway through, and she started making excuses for herself.
“I haven’t said anything yet.”
“A-Anyway! Are you going to move it or not! I don’t really mind it being here, you know!”
“I’m sure you don’t. If it’s on the back of your hand, you can show it off to everyone.”
“That’s not what I meant…!”
“It’s not?”
“…Hh, w-well, it’s not not what I… A-Anyway! What are you going to do?!”
“I have no choice. Alright then. Just as you wish, Sara. Shall I use it to mark your sweet spot again?”
“…Hh!”
As I spoke shamelessly, Sara slapped my stomach lightly.
But that was the extent of her token protest. She slowly moved away from me, turned her back, and unfastened the front of her pants.
Then, hooking her fingers into the waistband, she slowly pulled them down.
It seemed she was pulling down her underwear at the same time, as her gorgeous hip line and ass were slowly revealed… The pants stopped, resting halfway down her butt.
“Why’d you stop there?”
“I-It doesn’t matter. You’re putting it on the upper part anyway, so this is enough.”
No, what I meant was, since we’re about to do it anyway, wouldn’t it be better to just take them all the way off?
Well, I guess it doesn’t matter.
Come to think of it, doing it with clothes on sometimes might be fun.
“Then lean your upper body forward a little.”
I placed one hand on Sara’s hip and used the other to gently press down on her straight back as I spoke.
“What? Why do I have to…”
Sara grumbled but slowly bent forward as my hand pressed down.
Of course, since she couldn’t maintain her balance by bending 90 degrees while standing straight, her hands naturally came to rest against the wall.
While she did that, I used the hand on her hip to pull her pants down a little further.
Just a tiny bit more, so she wouldn’t notice.
As she leaned forward in that state, the position of her pants became exquisitely perfect for my intentions.
To be precise, her asshole was now exposed above the waistband, but her vulva remained tantalizingly hidden.
Sara was wearing pants that felt similar to the skinny jeans from my world, so her beautiful leg line was perfectly accentuated, creating a magnificent picture.
What’s more, even though she was bent over, her back was ramrod straight, making it even better.
Every little thing she does looks as cool as a model striking a pose, which makes her already amazing body look even more fabulous.
“If you lean forward instead of standing, the surface area is wider, so I can see it more clearly. The sharp tip of the heart has to point directly at the crack of your ass, and the wings have to perfectly wrap around the round curve of your pretty upper buttocks. This is a job that requires the utmost care and precision.”
“You really are a pervert…”
Sara seemed quite embarrassed by my words. Without looking back at me, she stared straight ahead and muttered.
A pervert, she says. Look at her, striking such a bold pose herself.
Does she not know what she looks like right now? Or is she pretending not to know?
Even though I secretly pulled her pants down further, she must have a feeling that her ass is exposed, right?
Well, fine.
I took off my pants and, pulling some gel from my inventory, began to slowly apply it to my Dick.
I had intended to perform this series of actions as quietly as possible, but it was impossible to completely silence the sticky sound of the gel.
Especially not from Sara, who had excellent hearing.
As the wet, squishing sound of the viscous liquid being applied to my Dick reached her, Sara’s body flinched and trembled.
It seemed she had finally realized what I was about to do.
But despite that, Sara didn’t look back. Instead, she steadied her trembling voice as much as she could and spoke to me.
“Hey, are you still not done? Does adjusting the seal’s position really take this long?”
Hearing that, my earlier suspicion became a certainty.
So she was pretending not to know.
She really does the cutest things.
It’s probably not part of some role-play scenario…
We’ve done a lot of image play, but she’s not the type to initiate something like that.
She’s probably planning to let me do what I want, then claim she had no idea what was happening.
Well, that just gets me more fired up, so it’s fine by me.
Even if it wasn’t her intention, Sara had created a very interesting situation.
“I told you. Moving it here requires the utmost care and precision.”
I said it nonchalantly and adjusted my angle, preparing to thrust my gel-coated member into Sara’s asshole in one go.
