Chapter Title: The Yandere Fairy's Gaze is Strange
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey, boss!!"
In the pitch-black darkness of my vision, a familiar voice rang in my ears.
The moment consciousness returned, the first thing I noticed was the throbbing pain in my head, like it was being drilled.
"You gonna get up or what? Wanna die?"
I forced my eyes open at the familiar voice, and the Gold Fairy's face loomed as large as a front door.
I jolted upright in shock.
"Eek!"
"Why the hell are you so surprised!?"
"What the... how did this happen..."
"You begged for help, didn't you? I save a drowning rat like you, and this is how you treat your benefactor?"
I propped myself up at an angle and pressed my temples firmly.
Somehow, I wasn't in the house anymore. I was on the rooftop.
As memories slowly came back, my eyes widened.
"W-where's Soeun-i?"
"Who? Oh, that girl you were with? I sent her home."
I kept tilting my head at the Gold Fairy's words.
"What do you mean?"
"She saw me too, so I wiped her memory and sent her back. She won't remember a thing from today."
"...You didn't do anything weird to her, right?"
"What the hell do you take me for? I'm not into girls."
"Ha... Anyway, thank you."
If it hadn't been for the Gold Fairy, who knows what might have happened to Soeun-i.
In a way, she might have just saved my life.
I calmed my startled heart and offered my thanks, but the Gold Fairy shook her head, her face flushed bright red.
"Ahem! If you're grateful, put some damn clothes on first!"
"What do you...?"
I looked down reflexively.
And there I was, stark naked from the waist up and down.
The Gold Fairy was naked too, sitting with her legs spread wide.
Her fingers were even buried inside her pussy.
I hurriedly covered my privates with my palms and furrowed my brow.
"Don't tell me... Did you rape me just now, Gold Fairy?"
"Wanna die? When I came down because you begged for help, you were already butt naked."
"Then why are your fingers still...?"
"Oh, this? I just jerked off while looking at your naked body. I saved your ass—can't you at least give me that much?"
"...You really didn't, right?"
"Corpses are no fun. I like 'em when they flop around and fight back—sweet as honey."
That aside.
Naked?
Does that mean Soeun-i stripped me?
While I couldn't even move?
"If you wanted to get physical, you could've just said so straight up..."
I muttered under my breath, but the Gold Fairy perked up her ears like she hadn't heard.
"What'd you say?"
"N-nothing. I'll get dressed first."
"Fine."
I threw on one of the sweat-wicking outfits I'd prepared on the rooftop for the fairies' sauna use and roughly straightened myself out.
Then I bowed deeply once more.
"Thank you. If you hadn't—er, I mean, if it weren't for you, I would've been in deep shit."
"Hmph! If you're grateful, then do better!"
"Of course. And tomorrow, construction starts on that cold bath you wanted!"
The Gold Fairy let out a fake cough, her face still beet red.
"Ahem! It's pretty big."
"What is?"
"...The space for the cold bath looks pretty huge!"
Does it?
She definitely glanced at my crotch while saying it!
I gave her a suspicious look and continued.
"In cases like this, wouldn't it be more accurate to say it's spacious rather than big?"
At that, the Gold Fairy—face redder than ever—pointed furiously at "that thing" hanging from my lower body and exploded.
"A-are you seriously misunderstanding me as calling this big!?"
"I was just explaining the difference between 'big' and 'spacious'..."
"I save your sorry ass, and you go suspecting me!?"
At this point, it wasn't suspicion anymore—it was certainty.
But bringing it up further would just get me more abuse.
I sighed and waved it off.
"Forget it. Talking more will just hurt my mouth."
"Y-you little shit... Wanna die for real?"
The Gold Fairy approached, radiating dark energy.
I swallowed hard and desperately looked up at the sky.
"L-look, dawn's almost breaking. Since you're here anyway, why not hit the sauna before you go?"
Squelch.
The Gold Fairy pulled her fingers from her pussy, gave them a lick, and tilted her head back toward the sky.
She seemed to sense sunrise was near too and clicked her tongue.
"Fine. Guess I'll sweat it out quick before I head off."
She looked displeased but hurried to the sauna, time running short.
Then, at the sauna door, she turned back to me.
"You come too."
"...Pardon?"
"I'm bored. Get in."
Fair enough.
She was the one who gave me 2kg of gold and saved my life today.
I could at least keep her company for less than an hour.
"Got it."
Hot steam hit my skin as I entered the sauna.
I frowned and plopped down on the bench opposite where the Gold Fairy sat.
"Ha... Feels like all the fatigue's melting away."
"...Yeah?"
The Gold Fairy started making lewd noises again.
Ignoring my gaze entirely, her fingers headed back to her pussy.
Squelch. Squelch.
Staring right at my face across from her, the Gold Fairy began masturbating again.
I was about to sigh—here we go again—when "that thing" down below suddenly stiffened.
'Fuck?'
I hid my flustered expression as best I could and twisted my body so she wouldn't notice.
"M-me too, fatigue's melting away."
"...But why's your face like that?"
Was it the sauna heat? Sweat trickled down my forehead.
My heart started pounding like mad.
I crossed my legs to hide my fully erect "friend."
"Haha! Guess my muscles are relaxing."
"Yeah? I thought you were worried 'cause I wiped that girl's memory."
Come to think of it, what exactly did she mean by wiping memories?
The person involved would have a whole day missing—wouldn't that cause confusion when they wake up?
"Right, what happens when you wipe memories?"
The Gold Fairy pulled her busy fingers from her pussy and crossed her arms heavily.
"We just implant normal daily memories into the gap. No need to worry."
"Ah... I see."
"Might have aftereffects for a few days, but she'll be fine soon."
"You didn't clear the booze and glasses on the table, right?"
"Wanna die? Why the hell would I clean that?"
Good.
So no need to overthink Soeun-i's situation.
Jiwon-i could ask her mom in detail about why Soeun-i got fired from the company and what was in the soju.
We had plenty of time for that.
I clapped my palms together and grinned.
"Wouldn't expect anything less. But damn, memory wiping too? Impressive."
"Child's play for a fairy."
A sudden curiosity hit me mid-conversation.
"That thing" had calmed a bit, so I shifted position.
"What do you fairies do up in heaven?"
"Just assist the Jade Emperor or King Yama."
"Both of them?"
"Yeah, it rotates every few years. Right now, I'm with Yama."
"But you add honorifics for the Jade Emperor... why not for King Yama?"
The Gold Fairy suddenly scowled and spat a curse.
"That guy's a pervert bastard."
"P-pervert?"
"Anyway, that's how it is."
I was curious but figured pushing more would just annoy her, so I changed the subject.
The mood stayed decent despite her grumbling, but with time short, the Gold Fairy wrapped up the sauna quick and prepped to fly off.
"Make that cold bath spotless."
"Yes, ma'am."
No extra 1kg of gold, but escaping danger was reward enough.
Satisfied, I descended the rooftop stairs and stepped back into the house.
"Phew..."
The remnants of the drinking session still littered the table, catching my eye.
I bagged my glass and the soju bottle in ziplocks.
Wonder if Junseok could get them analyzed.
Chaebols in dramas could do damn near anything.
"Yawn~!"
What a day full of events.
Exhaustion hit anyway, so I headed straight to bed.
"Good work."
"Kinda curious, though—why build a bathhouse on the roof?"
"Personal dream since I was a kid."
"This one's lightweight wood, so no issues, but I'd recommend replacing the cement one with something better."
"I've been worried about collapse too."
"Haha! If you do, hit us up. One-plus-one deal, cheaper for you."
"Will do."
I woke early and met the construction crew to build the cold bath on the rooftop.
Experts in the field, so the quality felt way higher than my hot bath.
They even reviewed the structure and confirmed it could handle the extra load—safety assured.
That aside.
Did Soeun-i really forget last night? She showed up today with booze again, just like yesterday.
Luckily, construction was underway, so I politely turned her away.
Ha...
Time to call a security company soon.
Old house, lax security—anyone determined could break in easy. Can't have people wandering the roof like Ungseok did.
"Boss, take care."
"Yep! We'll wait for your call!"
Sending off the crew, it was already evening.
Tomorrow was the chaebol birthday party with Junseok, so even without fatigue, I hit the sack early.
But then.
Gurgle gurgle gurgle!
Gurgle gurgle gurgle!
Gurgle gurgle gurgle!
As I lay in bed, the sound of running water started up right on cue.
Gold Fairy came yesterday, so not her two days in a row...
Which meant Silver Fairy?
Or the Donghwa Fairy?
"Huff!!"
Didn't matter who or what.
I still had to deal with it either way.
I clenched my fist and yelled at the ceiling.
"Silver Fairy or Donghwa Fairy—either way, you're fucked today!"
