Chapter 149: Weekend? R18 (3)
"Welcome."
"Reservation under the name Moon Soorin."
"Ah, you\'re with Miss Moon Soorin."
Despite consistently meeting Soorin at this restaurant, the staff, always the same person, treats me as if it\'s our first encounter.
Is this the norm for upscale restaurant service?
"Please, follow me."
Guided by the staff, we made our way to a room on the second floor. Now that I\'ve somewhat memorized the layout, it would be convenient if she could just inform me of the room number next time.
"Noona, I\'m here."
"Hey, come in."
Moon Soorin, whom I haven\'t seen in a while, remained stunning. Her platinum blonde hair and well-defined hip line were captivating. Indeed, removing glasses can bring a person to life.
She concluded the video on her smartwatch and met my gaze.
"Hello, Noona. What were you watching?"
"Huh? Hehe… just some funny videos."
"Oh, Noona\'s into those too. Anyway, thanks for the help during the terrorist incident."
"No, thanks to you, there were no casualties. It would have been terrible if there were any deaths."
"Come on, what did I do?" I sat across from her, initiating a conversation. The atmosphere during the meal was pleasant, and a smile adorned her face.
No… why is she so cheerful?
Certainly, being cheerful is positive. Witnessing Lucy\'s mental breakdown also affected me. Consequently, I had contemplated conquering Soorin as well.
However, this is too strange. Judging by the frequency of the Everyday exposure posts, it\'s high time her mental state should have crumbled…
Is there something I don\'t know? Just to be sure, I checked the status window.
★ Heroine Status Window
[Moon Soorin]
[Affection: 82]
[Lust: 35]
[Appetite: 50]
[Fatigue: 33]
Current Status: How do I get him to say "I love you"?
"What…?"
"Hehe, huh? What\'s up?"
"Oh, it\'s nothing."
I panicked for a moment and blurted it out. Why is this noona trying to get me to say "I love you"?
Her affection level is 82. An unbelievably high number. We haven\'t met that many times; I honestly don\'t understand why her affection level is rising by itself.
And why would she want me to say \'I love you\'?
It\'s unsettling. I don\'t know what it is, but uneasiness is creeping in.
"Hoyeon…"
"Y-Yes, Noona?"
The atmosphere during the meal didn\'t change, but I was nervous for no reason.
"What do you think love is?"
"Uh… I don\'t know. It\'s still a difficult question for me."
What the hell is going on here? This is too much pressure.
"Really? You\'ve never thought about love?"
"Um… I\'ve been busy, so I haven\'t had time for love. Why all of a sudden?"
Let\'s not say "I love you" for now. I don\'t know what might happen.
Could it be related to her mental state? If I say I love her, will she feel better and not be mentally affected even if she receives stalking?
No, that can\'t be. It\'s unlikely to be such an easy problem. It shouldn\'t be that simple.
"Hmm. I was just curious."
Moon Soorin smiled brightly with a refreshed expression, holding chopsticks.
"…"
Why does her smiling face make me feel uneasy? Even though I was enjoying a delicious meal, my stomach felt oddly queasy.
***
"That hit the spot!"
"I\'m glad you enjoyed it."
We polished off our meal and kicked back, waiting for dessert. The atmosphere was just right, so it seemed fitting to casually broach the subject.
"By the way, there were some people spreading strange posts, asking me to reveal the truth. Have you seen them?"
"Yeah, you saw them too? In fact, I was contemplating how to deal with it at the academy. But hey, your take on it matters, so…"
"Wouldn\'t it be okay to clarify only the magic circle part that raises suspicion? People might be able to understand."
"That might be a good idea."
"Exactly. Too much of a reaction could turn into a spectacular backfire."
Individuals at the grassroots level tend to revel in eliciting reactions. Furthermore, a formal acknowledgment might unexpectedly lure in the previously apathetic, so brushing it off appears to be the wiser choice.
"Hoyeon, I can only imagine the hardships you\'re facing lately. Fear not, I\'ll manage it."
"Oh, I\'m holding up just fine. But what about you, Noona? Juggling a multitude of tasks, and the influx of weirdos lately…"
Observing that Soorin seemed unfazed, I subtly steered the conversation towards the paparazzi.
"Yeah, I\'ve decided to spare minimal attention to such trivial matters."
Hold on, why? I mean, sure, it\'s a positive turn of events, but what sparked this change? As the supposed protagonist of this world, there are too many things I don\'t know.
"I see… Come to think of it, my photos have been circulating a lot too. Honestly, who on earth finds them intriguing?"
Whether my photos circulate or not is inconsequential to me. Thanks to Clear Mental Strength, it doesn\'t ruffle my feathers.
"Hm? Ah, hahaha… right, it\'s a mystery to me as well."
Moon Soorin chuckled faintly, relishing the tangerine ice cream that graced our table as dessert.

"I\'m back."
Returning to the dorm, Liliana, sprawled over her desk, lifted her head.
"You\'re back? I ordered some chicken; it\'ll be here soon."
"Chicken again?"
"I paid for it, what\'s the problem?"
"Sigh…"
What kind of magic keeps a succubus in shape with a daily diet of chicken?
Scarlett was sitting somewhat comfortably on the couch, watching TV.
Why is she still here?
"Scarlett, aren\'t you going home?"
"Huh? Oh, right. This place is just too comfy; I forgot it\'s not my own."
"…"
Spending so much time with Liliana has definitely made her daft. She used to be such a fierce woman; how did she end up like this?
Ping!
My smartwatch chimed as a message arrived. The sender was Alice.
[Alice: Can we meet tomorrow? I\'ll send you my address; it would be nice if you could come prepared for a massage.]
"Oh…"
If she\'s saying this outright, it looks like she\'s made up her mind.
[Me: Sure, that\'s fine… Let\'s meet and talk first.]
[Alice: Okay, I\'m sending you the address. Oh, and be careful not to be seen by anyone when you come.]
Such a demanding lady with numerous requests.
"Who\'s that?" Liliana, who was lying on the desk, clung to my waist.
"Just a friend. I have plans tomorrow."
"Ah, okay." Liliana rolled back onto the living room bed.
Scarlett, dressed and ready, was sticking to the ceiling, preparing to go outside. Looking at that creepy posture, it feels like I might get PTSD.
Will you take responsibility if I can\'t get aroused because of you?
Now is the perfect time to bring up the subject.
I addressed Scarlett, who was about to leave.
"Scarlett."
"Yes, Hoyeon?"
"I\'m sorry, but can you skip the ceiling acrobatics?"
"Um… this is my most confident infiltration posture. People hardly look up, and sticking to the ceiling reduces air friction—"
"No, no. When you come here, no need for fancy moves. No one\'s gonna mind. Just come in casually."
"Oh, okay!" Scarlett descended with a thud and opened the living room window.
"Well then, I\'ll come back tomorrow."
"Sure, see you tomorrow."
Whoosh!
She swiftly disappeared into the darkness.
…But why is she coming again tomorrow? I thought you were only supposed to report when you find useful information? Why are you trying to work at my place?
"Aaah! I\'m bored! Bored! What am I supposed to do now that Scout\'s left?"
As soon as Scarlett left, Liliana started whining.
"Why are you like this again?"
"Play with me! I\'m bored!"
"…Sigh, no, actually, this works out well. Take off your clothes and lie down. I\'ll give you a massage."
Before meeting Alice, I need to check my massage skills, and conveniently, I have a subject here.
"Oh, a massage? That sounds fun." Following my instructions, she immediately took off her clothes and lay down.
How does she maintain this figure by eating chicken every day?
A delicate waist connected a well-defined pelvis and large chest. I gently stroked her smooth sides and waist, pressing on the protruding side of her chest.
"Kyah… It\'s ticklish."
"Now, let\'s start the massage."
Alice wouldn\'t undress so willingly from the beginning. She\'d probably show only the upper body, maybe like during the survival test. Although eventually, after a few more sessions, it might come to this, but not tomorrow.
For now, I need to practice the upper body today. I caressed Liliana\'s smooth body, injecting mana into her flawless arms and back.
"No, ah… it hurts a bit."
"It\'s okay. Relax and leave it to me."
I stimulated Liliana\'s mana circuit little by little, just as I did with Alice. Even though mana circuits are always where mana flows, and right now, I\'m overloading the mana circuit with the skill Acceleration.
Yet, it\'s a robust system. It barely gets damaged with just a few stimulations.
"Heh… it feels kinda refreshing."
"Really? That\'s good."
While pressing Liliana\'s back firmly, I continued injecting mana. With one hand stimulating the mana circuit, the other hand inserted mana into her uterus.
"Ah, ah… you, are you doing that again… hnggh…"
"If I put it in like this, it\'s too obvious, huh? I see…"
"Hnggh! Ah, it\'s too intense… haah…"
My experience is increasing gradually. I tortured Liliana\'s uterus, researching how to stimulate without arousing suspicion from Alice. Significant stimulation seems necessary for the strategy.
"How about this?"
"Oh, ah… good… I like it…!"
"It\'s not about liking it. I\'m asking if you can feel me stimulating."
"Huh! Hahaa! Doing both at the same time is too… huuuh♡"
"You\'re not helpful…"
Well, at least I get a rough idea. I should be able to cover up the massage for Alice. Finally, I vibrated the mana to strongly stimulate Liliana\'s sensitive spot.
"Aah, ahn… hot… Haaaaaah!"
Liliana, lying down, quivered and spurted out her juices. Watching her convulsing like a freshly caught salmon, I began to tease her, fondling her firm butt.
"Ha, thank, thank you, Master… huhuh… haah, haah…"
"Liliana, thanks to you, I gained some confidence."
"Y-Yes…"
"Now, shall we continue?"
I inserted my erect penis between Liliana\'s thighs. Damp moisture could be felt on the glans, and a lewd scent wafted through the air.
"Just, let me rest for a bit… kyaaah!"
I teased Liliana until the chicken arrived.
