Chapter 634: Guwon, the Pure-Hearted Man
“Did you sleep well?”
When I awoke, an angel was smiling before me.
“Yeah. Good morning.”
It wasn’t just a greeting; I meant it with all my heart. It truly was a good morning.
Thinking this from the bottom of my heart, I placed a light kiss on Leia’s lips.
To be greeted by an angel the moment I open my eyes… I’m a lucky man.
But that also meant my angel had woken up before me.
“You’re up early.”
To be up before me, even after a night as intense as yesterday…
Though, come to think of it, it wasn’t all that rare these days.
When we had first met, I was usually the one to wake up first. But lately, it seemed everyone had grown accustomed to my daily rhythm, and we often woke up around the same time.
It felt like another sign of how deep our bond had grown, and a corner of my heart grew warm.
“Yes. I happened to wake up in the middle of the night. When I saw your face, it felt like a waste to go back to sleep…”
And my angel’s reply made me feel even happier.
It was so healing. She truly was the oasis of my heart, my ray of light and salt of the earth.
“Still, you should have slept more. After how intense we were yesterday…”
“G-Guwon, honestly!”
As I said that, Leia’s face turned beet red, and she grew shy.
Yesterday, she seemed to have a reason to take the lead, and though she appeared embarrassed, she had ultimately acted quite assertively. But now that the mood was gone, bringing it up again was apparently too much for her.
My dear angel. How can she remain so pure and innocent?
Her reaction was so adorable that it made me want to keep teasing her about it.
“You were so assertive yesterday, Leia. If you want, before Vanessa gets here, we could do one more round, just as you command…”
“R-Really! You’re such a tease!”
As I gently caressed her cheek, Leia, as if she couldn’t take it anymore, covered her face with both hands and turned her body away from me.
But, just like most mornings, I was still inside of her, and her movement only served to needlessly stimulate me.
After all, she hadn’t pulled me out before turning away.
“Hnngh!”
Aroused by the friction, my dick naturally twitched. Leia must have felt it too, because she let out a sexy little gasp, her private parts clenching tightly.
Perhaps embarrassed by her own reaction, or maybe as retaliation for my teasing, she began to whip my upper body with her tail.
Of course, a tail covered in fluffy fur, no matter how much like a whip she swung it, dealt me zero damage.
As I watched her from behind, swinging her tail, I was suddenly reminded of last night.
Right, it’s back to normal now.
“Hyaang!”
I reached out and touched her soft bottom. As I thought, there was only one tail.
“G-Guwon, honestly… The reason you said that is because you weren’t satisfied, right? A-As I thought… do you want to go again?”
Misinterpreting my touch, Leia’s tail quivered once before she turned back to me, an awkward smile on her face as if to hide her embarrassment.
The way she subtly swayed her hips from side to side suggested that if I said yes, she would start moving immediately.
No matter what, she always ends up indulging my whims. I love you, my angel.
I wanted to say I wasn’t satisfied and jump right into another round with her, but for now, I decided to suppress the urge.
Last night, we got so caught up in sex that I never got to mention it.
I couldn’t let that happen again.
“No, it’s not that. Well, of course I want to go again. No, actually, I always want to be with you, anytime, anywhere.”
“G-Guwon, you…”
As I spoke with a serious expression, Leia turned her head away again in embarrassment, squirming.
Naturally, her hips swayed along with her movements, and… this was dangerous. If this kept up, I’d lose my reason and we’d end up having sex first.
I grabbed Leia’s body, spun her around, and made her face me again.
Damn it. This angle is… no. This is even more destructive. The view of Leia’s breasts looking up from below is truly a magnificent sight.
“A-Anyway, I was just thinking that you’re not in your Gumiho state right now.”
I almost lost my mind to her chest, but I quickly shook my head, diverting my attention and managing to say what I originally intended.
“Huh? Ah, r-right, yesterday… was I in that state?”
So she really wasn’t aware of it.
If my memory served me right, Leia had been in her Gumiho state right up until the moment she fell asleep.
“Yeah.”
When I nodded, Leia blushed but wore an expression that said, “I knew it.”
As if to say her actions were justified.
Was she trying to say that the only reason she was so assertive yesterday was because she was in her Gumiho state?
I didn’t think so.
She was already in her Gumiho state when she told me she would allow me to cum, but she only started to look truly lost in pleasure after I entered her.
“For the record, Leia, you were in your Gumiho state from the moment you started giving me oral.”
“W-Whaat?! N-Not from when you entered me?”
My guess must have been right. When I said that, she looked at me with an expression that begged me to say it wasn’t true.
Of course, I couldn’t lie, so I couldn’t give her the answer she wanted.
“Yeah. So, what I’m saying is, I don’t know the exact reason yet, but maybe the more we’re together, the easier it’s becoming for you to enter your Gumiho state even during normal times?”
“Is… is that so…”
As I laid out my hypothesis, Leia looked at me, unsure of what to do.
Did I phrase that in a confusing way?
I didn’t mean that she would become that slightly lewd version of herself all the time.
“No, that’s not what I mean. What I’m trying to say is, aren’t you gradually becoming able to maintain your Gumiho form and control its power?”
As far as I knew, the species most similar to a Gumiho was a Succubus.
Considering Felicia’s case, becoming lewd in the Gumiho state was likely just a side effect of the ability. I believed the Gumiho’s true power was the ability to manipulate essence.
Just as a Succubus requires semen and has the side effect of becoming lewd, but in return possesses the power to charm people.
And just as Felicia could wield that power at will, there was a good chance Leia could also learn to freely control the power of the Gumiho.
“D-Do you think so?”
“Yeah. I’m sure of it.”
Though, it was just a hypothesis based on fitting the pieces together, with no real evidence to back it up.
In fact, it was a theory with more than a few holes one could poke in it.
To be blunt, the very origins of the Gumiho and Succubus races were different.
If all my predictions so far were correct, the Gumiho were a race created by the War God, while the Succubus were a race created by the Goddess.
But even so, applying the Succubus model seemed to explain Leia’s current situation, so that was good enough, right?
“So, with that in mind, do you think you could transform into a Gumiho right now?”
“W-Well… I’ll try. Hnnngh…”
Leia seemed a little flustered by my question, but she closed her eyes and started grunting as if concentrating on something.
She was just too cute. To be both beautiful and adorable… it was completely unfair.
She looked even cuter because, despite her confusion, she believed my hypothesis and was trying so hard.
“Hnnnngh! Haaah… I’m sorry. I don’t think it’s working.”
After gathering some kind of unknown energy, Leia slowly opened her eyes, glanced down at her rear, and then looked disappointed as the pointed ears atop her head drooped.
It seemed she had held a sliver of hope that, since she had transformed unknowingly yesterday, she might have transformed now without feeling anything.
I’ll say it again. My angel is so cute it’s hard to live.
“It’s okay. It was just a random idea with no proof, anyway.”
So that was that. It seemed she couldn’t control her Gumiho state that easily yet.
In that case, was there some kind of condition?
It happened so easily yesterday, so if there was a condition, I didn’t think it would be a very difficult one.
I carefully retraced the events of yesterday, but no specific condition came to mind.
I wasn’t expecting it to work right away, but it was still a little disappointing.
“T-That’s not true! I’m sure it’s happening just like you said, Guwon!”
Watching me lost in thought, Leia spoke up energetically, as if trying to cheer me up.
Controlling the Gumiho’s power was her own issue, so if you thought about it, she probably felt more disappointed than I did. She really was an angel.
“Yeah. Let’s figure it out together, step by step.”
“R-Right now, you mean?”
I responded to my angel’s kindness with a gentle smile, but for some reason, her reaction was slightly different from what I expected.
“…Should we do it now?”
Of course, I didn’t hesitate and immediately decided to accept her offer.
“N-No, you can’t. It’s almost time for Vanessa to arrive.”
But just as I was about to start moving my hips, Leia stopped me, pressing her hands firmly against my lower abdomen and gesturing with her eyes toward the clock on the wall.
Well, I didn’t really need to look at the clock, since the time was displayed in the corner of my vision anyway.
Tch. It’s already that late? A shame, but it can’t be helped. Still…
“Then until Vanessa gets here, it’s okay if we just stay like this, right?”
“Fufu. Honestly, Guwon. You’re not a child.”
I clung to Leia’s chest and buried my face in it. She said that, but she giggled as if she found it cute and gently cradled my head.
As I reveled in the feeling of her breasts, I made another firm resolution.
No matter what, I will absolutely make it so Leia can control her Gumiho state.
Leia seemed to think she needed to control her Gumiho state simply to get pregnant later, but I actually had another reason for wanting her to master it.
Her safety.
Our party was fundamentally composed of members who could each protect themselves.
Silvia, a knight, and Matilda, a holy knight, were obvious examples. Even Sara, who primarily used a bow from a distance, was surprisingly strong in close combat thanks to her overpowered Hero job.
Diana, who should have been weak in close quarters, proved that her title of Archmage was no empty boast, skillfully using magic to perfectly handle any monster that got near.
The only one who couldn’t handle a monster that got too close was Leia.
Of course, the best thing was to prevent such a situation from ever happening, and I would do my best to ensure it. But in the dungeon, the unexpected could always occur.
It’s never a bad thing to prepare for the worst-case scenario.
It would be one thing if a monster merely approached Leia, but if a situation arose where she was separated from the party, like what happened to me before…
In a time like that, if Leia could wield the power of the Gumiho, it would be a huge help.
I hadn’t seen her use it lately, but in the past, she had even used it to bind me so I couldn’t move.
So, to ensure Leia’s safety in a potential crisis, she needed to be able to control the Gumiho’s power as soon as possible.
Of course, if I said that, it might just make her anxious, so I wouldn’t voice these thoughts out loud.
It was better to just show Leia a dependable side of me that would protect her no matter what, in any situation.
“Guwon? What are you thinking about?”
Oops. Did she notice I was thinking about something serious?
Time to deflect with a joke.
“Oh, nothing. I was just wondering how many kilograms one of these breasts weighs.”
As I spoke, I cupped each of Leia’s breasts with my hands and gently bounced them up and down as if weighing them.
“W-Whaat?! G-Guwon! It’s rude to mention a lady’s weight!”
“No, not your body weight, your breast weight… and besides, you’re so light, I don’t think you need to worry about it.”
“I do worry! I’m heavy!”
“No, really…”
If Leia thinks she’s heavy, it’s probably because of her chest.
That’s what I was about to say, but Leia’s counterattack was a little faster.
“You’re awful!”
“Keoheok!”
It seemed my choice of topic to deflect the situation had been a little too brilliant.
Ugh. Sometimes I curse my own quick wit.
