Chapter Title: Potential Activation
-----------------------------------------------------------------
'But how do I even check this?'
It sounded great—potential activation—but the explanation was so abstract that I had no clue where to start.
It mentioned something about the brain, so maybe it made me smarter or something.
I rummaged through my desk and dug out an engineering textbook I'd shoved in the corner. It had been about a month and a half since I last cracked it open.
Normally, I'd scrub it from my mind the second the exam was over, but I wondered if things might be different this time.
"..."
No idea. It wasn't like a movie scene where the solution just unrolled across my brain.
I remembered bits and pieces, but to my eyes, it was still a mess of weird symbols and formulas.
So where exactly had it activated? Better memory? Wait, what the hell was "potential" even supposed to mean?
I flopped onto the bed and kept rereading the upgrade description over and over.
But no matter how many times I scanned it, no clear answer emerged. I blinked my dry eyes and closed the app.
It was only day one of the upgrade. Feeling changes right away would be the weird part. I decided to take a shower and cool my head.
As cool water washed over me, a sudden hypothesis popped into my mind.
This was a feature derived from the onahole in the first place, and if my guess was right, it was the foundation for simultaneous connections—so it had to be related to that.
"Should I try using the avatar?"
I shut off the shower immediately. After quickly toweling off, I grabbed the onahole and headed to bed.
Excluding Han Chae-ah, Han Hee-jin, and Yoon Hye-yoon—who I'd already worn out—the one left was Shin Ayoung.
I'd meant to let her rest after her trip, but somehow I'd ended up messing with all four.
Unlike the three who'd gotten love calls, this was a stealth visit to Shin Ayoung, so I switched to transparent mode for a quiet test run.
My view shifted, and a familiar background appeared. Shin Ayoung's studio apartment.
A ticklish, pleasant scent filled the air inside.
Glancing over, there she was, sleeping with the most blissed-out expression on her face. Sunlight streamed through the curtains, adding a mystical glow to the scene.
She looked so gorgeous I lost myself for a moment, just admiring her face from every angle. Front, side—pure art no matter how you sliced it.
"Hng..."
When I brushed her hair aside, a soft, pleased moan slipped from her lips. So cute—I went to do it again, and that's when I felt something different.
The avatar's body felt way softer, more responsive.
It wasn't like it had been unresponsive before, but now the control was finer, smoother.
And strangely, I felt overflowing with energy.
Yep, the potential was definitely tied to avatar control. Time to test it out properly—I'd wander around the place.
I hadn't asked the homeowner's permission, but since I was invisible, I'd slip by unnoticed. First up: some stretching.
As I twisted and turned, the air brushing my skin felt... different from usual.
'Is this just heightened sensation?'
I couldn't quite put it into words, but if I had to sum it up in one: "more sensitive."
On a broad scale or pinpoint fine.
While marveling at the mysterious feeling and looking around, something perfect caught my eye. A bag of sliced bread left on the desk—probably her lunch substitute.
I pulled one out and popped it in my mouth.
'Tastes amazing?'
The moment it hit my tongue, it melted into sweetness, the soft chew against my teeth. Definitely not like the mindless munching I usually did.
The bakery might be top-tier, but I set that possibility aside.
Who knew something like this existed in the world? Was this how Sim Bong-sa felt when he opened his eyes?
Curiosity building, I wanted to test more things.
I picked up objects, drank some water, even did some jumping jacks. The results confirmed my earlier hunch.
Sensations sharpened across the board, boosting multitasking ability as a result.
"Eung..."
Lost in my solo excitement, Shin Ayoung made a small noise behind me. Still in the same position, fast asleep.
I sat carefully beside her, and right then, her body shifted. From curled-up shrimp sleep to flat on her back, facing the ceiling.
Her front was now fully exposed to the sky.
Short tank top and dolphin pants. I couldn't tear my eyes from her casual sleepwear.
Especially the deep cleavage peeking from her tank and those firm, pale thighs.
I'd planned not to touch her, but seeing that? No holding back. Hell, any guy who could resist that sight wasn't a man.
Even a blind man would charge in sniffing it out—and with my amped-up senses, there was no way I was staying still.
With that flimsy excuse, I lay down beside her without waking her. Up close, her nipples poked visibly through the tank top.
A light touch, and she let out a faint moan, twisting her shoulder.
"Heut..!"
Teasing rubs—not quite pinching—and her nipple perked up even more.
Great reaction. I rolled both nipples while burying my face in her cleavage. The firm flesh pressed against my cheeks, delivering peak sensation.
Feeling my body settle, I took a deep breath.
Blood rushed straight to my dick, rock-hard. Sure, the breast play had started it, but this was different.
A scent that could drive any man insane, just from smell alone. It had always been nice, but now the impact was nuclear.
Could human skin even produce a smell like this? It made you question reality.
From a guy's perspective, it was basically a biological weapon.
'This could be dangerous.'
With my stamina boost and aphrodisiac fluids, I could push women to their limits before. But this sensory upgrade? I felt like I might turn premature.
In the avatar for now, but if it carried over to reality...
Good or bad? Obviously good. Still, a twinge of unease crept in.
Mentioning the brain suggested it tweaked my nerves.
I just hoped I wouldn't wake up one day strapped to a glowing lab table.
Squeeze...
I chuckled at the random thought when suddenly something pressed against my neck. It let me fully feel Shin Ayoung's breasts, but after that scary imagining, I couldn't enjoy it.
Speak of the devil—a horde of burly masked men here to nab me?
Bracing for the sleepy-time dart, I heard the kidnapper's voice.
"Gotcha."
Not stiff or menacing—playful, affectionate even.
I let out a huge sigh and rolled my eyes upward.
Shin Ayoung, grinning as she wrapped her arms around me. She couldn't see me, but her gaze locked right on my eyes.
-You've been awake?
"I just lay down for a quick nap 'cause I was sleepy, and boom—you show up. Mr. Bread Thief?"
-You saw everything from the start, huh.
"Stroking my hair tipped me off, but then I hear rustling, and the bread floats into midair? Had to be you—who else has powers like that?"
-Fair point.
Caught anyway, I switched to semi-transparent mode. As my form appeared, her arms tightened.
She hugged me like a doll, rubbing my face wildly against her chest.
"So, what's up on a Monday afternoon? Feeling lonely?"
-Just missed you, Ayoung.
"Hng... Liar."
-For real.
"Then why do you smell like another woman?"
She sniffed my neck relentlessly, like a search dog hunting evidence.
"Spill it quick. Who?"
-Had lunch with Hye-yoon earlier. Guess the scent hasn't worn off.
"Oh... right?"
I'd rushed out mid-shower, so my body still held traces. We'd been glued together for hours, so yeah.
I shrugged, claiming innocence, but her eyes narrowed slightly.
"So you got some post-meal exercise too, huh?"
-We went for a walk. Pretty intense one.
"Hm..."
She got the implication, lifting her knee to tap my dick. Testing hardness like an inspection, then smiled in approval.
"Anyway, come here. I was just thinking about you too."
-Thought you were about to sleep?
"I was hoping to meet you in my dreams. But how'd you time it so perfectly?"
-I know everything about you, Ayoung.
She liked the joke, humming a little tune.
She rocked her body slightly, eyeing me, then slipped one tank strap down.
"So... wanna go once? Knowing you, the usual wouldn't satisfy."
Her hot breath hit my face. Sweet exhale tickled my nose, her soft skin tempting me everywhere.
I hadn't come for this, but turning her down would be rude.
Besides, my hypersensitive body was raging to pounce. Dick throbbing like I'd barely done anything today.
Prodding her lower belly drew a weak moan from her lips.
"Haa... Feels harder today... Like a damn rock."
-Always like this. Give my arms some play.
Once freed, I shoved her tank up. Her perfect innie navel gaped invitingly.
I dragged my tongue up her belly. Saliva trail laid, eyes on the next target.
Two plump, perky breasts. Just eyeing the red nipples made me swallow hard.
What would they taste like? What worlds would my maxed-out taste buds unlock?
And with aphrodisiac spit—what reaction from Shin Ayoung?
Brimming with anticipation, I pressed my mouth to her left breast.
