“By the way, it’s really lively here.”
I glanced around and said.
“It’s a famous bar, so it’s no surprise.”
Athena was wiping around her mouth with a napkin.
I couldn’t help but be surprised by her words.
“A bar?! This place is a bar?”
A bar, huh? No wonder it was so noisy around here.
It was far too lively to be a regular restaurant.
Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind.
‘…I wonder what the alcohol tastes like in this world…?’
Before possession, I was a working adult.
Alcohol was a close friend to me, especially since I didn’t have many special hobbies aside from reading novels.
Whenever I got scolded by my boss or had to do overtime, I always eased my stress with a can of beer.
That refreshing taste of beer always lifted my spirits.
I was someone who enjoyed drinking, so I became curious about what kind of alcohol they sold in this world.
‘…Is it okay to drink?’
I was an adult, after all…
And before my possession, I had quite a high tolerance, so I wouldn’t cause any problems.
Alright.
After making up my mind, I carefully looked at Athena.
“Athena… Shall we have a drink?”
“Sure! I drink really well, so no worries.”
…
“Delicious..! It tastes amazing since I haven’t had it in a while.”
…
“Hehe.. You drink quickly too, Athena~!”
…
“Wooah.. I feel so good.. Phew…”
…
“Hehe.. feeling good.. hehe…”
…
“Burp…”
“…”
I pressed my fingers against my throbbing head while looking at Hera, sprawled out on the dining table.
She had boasted about being a good drinker, but she was out cold before finishing a single drink.
I mean, isn’t that just way too poor a showing for her?
It wasn’t even hard liquor, just beer.
“…This is so Hera-like.”
If I thought she was cute even in this state, was I under some sort of spell?
After downing her drink, I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes for a moment.
– I love you.
Hera’s confession to me.
That one phrase kept echoing in my mind.
The first affectionate words spoken to me.
Though it wasn’t romantic love, it revealed how much Hera had opened her heart to me.
Thump-thump—
It felt like my heart still hadn’t settled down.
The word “I love you” that came out of Hera’s mouth had hit me harder than any bizarre attack I had experienced so far.
“Not like I’m a lovestruck girl or anything…”
Well, to be honest, it was my first love.
I should have liked someone else before, be it in a romantic sense or just as a person.
‘…I’m glad I held back.’
I had resisted countless temptations.
Every day, I battled the urge to pounce on her as she swayed her tail enticingly.
I endured every night spent with her, cherishing my own time.
Even though that had left me significantly fatigued recently.
But looking back now, I really felt that I had made the right choice in holding back.
If I had forced myself on her—
Disregarding her will, violating her body—
She would never have uttered those loving words to me. In fact, she would have looked at me with hatred.
Now, we were almost there.
Now that she had opened her heart to me, I had no intention of missing this opportunity.
Using the opening Hera had provided, I would draw closer to her.
One day, she would confess to me not as family but as a lover.
And on that day of becoming lovers,
I would unleash all the desires I had been holding back onto her.
I might not leave the bed for at least a week.
Imagining that moment made my mouth water.
“Ugh… Athena, are you there?”
Hera blinked drowsily, looking quite drunk.
It seemed like it was time to put her to bed.
“I’m drunk. Let’s go back.”
After gently rubbing her head, I walked to the counter to pay.
“Whoa! No, no. How can I accept the hero’s money?”
“Stop with the nonsense and take it.”
“I really can’t! As long as you enjoyed your meal, that’s enough for me.”
The barkeep was refusing my money. It wasn’t unexpected.
Everyone I had encountered so far had shown me such goodwill.
Instead, they had expected something from me.
Seeing me appear in the city, they must have thought I’d naturally take care of the monsters.
If I decided not to hunt the monsters, their admiration would turn to immediate disappointment.
They expected me to be something and then pitifully resorted to disappointment when I didn’t meet their expectations. Selfish beings who think only of their own desires.
Only Hera was different.
I thought back to when I first met her.
Instead of admiration, her gaze held fear.
Hera acted as if she understood my true self from the very beginning.
‘Indeed. It’s fate.’
It was surely an encounter granted by the heavens.
A gift from the sky bestowed upon my apathetic self.
“Enough, take it. It’s not like I’m ever short on money.”
I tossed money at the barkeep and turned to walk away,
Toward my lovely slave.
‘Since she’s drunk… I can be a bit rougher with her.’
She was likely pretty wasted. It wouldn’t be easy for her to wake up.
I could be a little bolder now.
Today, instead of using her fingers, I’d try her mouth. Or maybe her breasts… No, I’ll save that for later.
No matter what,
I would deliver heavenly pleasure.
With that hopeful thought in my heart, I returned to my seat.
But all that greeted me was—
A messy table and—
A chair that felt chillingly devoid of warmth.
“…..Hera?”
*
Her pink hair fluttered in the night sky.
“HAH!! I did it! I really did it!!”
In my arms was a sleeping woman with black hair.
While Athena was momentarily at the counter, I stealthily approached and quickly took the woman.
The woman was so drunk that she wouldn’t notice if someone carried her away. I managed to abduct her far easier than I had anticipated.
While I was running around mindlessly, I finally arrived at my hideout.
Technically, it was an abandoned cabin I found while searching for hatchlings in the forest, but it had a bed, so I decided to use it.
Gently laying the woman down on the bed, I took a deep breath.
“Hah… hah… phew…”
After following Athena all day, I had learned just how precious this woman was to her.
Right about now, she was probably burning with worry looking for this woman.
But by the time she found her, the woman would already be my slave.
‘I guess she was getting all worked up about her…’
Would I witness despair on Athena’s face if I were to mix with this woman in front of her?
Or maybe it wouldn’t be too bad to make this woman spread her legs for me willingly.
Imagining that beastly woman writhing beneath me made me burst out in laughter.
“Heh.. good.”
By now, I had regained my breath. Approaching the woman sleeping soundly on the bed, I took a good look at her.
She was breathing softly, her cheeks flushed from the alcohol.
…She’s pretty cute.
Even I, known for my devilish beauty, could barely take my eyes off her elegance.
Her skin was pale enough to give the impression it had never seen sunlight.
‘If I make her my slave, I’ll have to put her to work in various ways.’
My primary goal was to deal with Athena, but seeing this woman’s appearance fueled desires within me.
Looks like I could enjoy some time with this slave for a while.
Alright. First, the seduction.
I shook the sleeping woman to wake her up.
To cast the spell of seduction, I needed her to gaze right into my eyes.
“Hey, get up. I have a present for you.”
“Ugh… Athena?”
She looked at me and called for Athena.
Did she mistake me for that beast?
If so, I only welcomed that.
The more fondness she felt for me, the more powerful my seductive spell would become.
I gently stroked her head like Athena did.
“Yes, that’s me. Athena.”
“Hehe… Athena…”
She rubbed her face against my knee with a cute voice.
“Uh-huh… good girl… could you look into my eyes for a moment?”
Holding her angelic face, I lifted it to see her eyes at my level.
“Alright… now into my eyes—”
“Ugh… should I? I know…”
Suddenly, she mumbled something incomprehensible.
But before I could grasp her intentions, things took a turn.
“Ah.”
“YEEK?!”
My hand grasped her face, and she took my hand to bring it closer to her mouth, shoving one of my fingers inside.
“Uhh.. mmm… uhmm..”
Chup- Chop- Chuuup-
“What… what is this?!!”
My heart raced wildly at her sudden action.
“Uhh… so delicious…”
Seeing her passionately sucking on my finger made my thoughts start to spiral.
‘No, no, no! Pull yourself together, Sephir!!’
I slapped my cheek, then pulled my finger out of her mouth.
Her lips clung to my finger as if she didn’t want to let go, and she kissed it until it was completely free.
Her saliva made my finger glisten.
That sight ignited lustful thoughts in my mind.
I shook my head vigorously to clear my desires.
Then, I shouted at her.
“What… what are you?!”
Even I, the pinnacle of succubi, was nearly entranced by her.
This was absolutely unacceptable.
‘Could it be… the nine-tailed fox I’ve only heard about?!!’
A spirit mentioned only in legends.
It was said that anyone who saw the fox would have their life force drained and die, meaning no one had ever known the fox’s true form.
In an instant, I wondered if this woman was that creature, yet she looked completely human.
I couldn’t detect any hint of a fox spirit within her.
‘As long as she’s human, there’s no way she could resist me.’
It must be a coincidence.
I, the queen of succubi, the pinnacle of desire,
Wouldn’t let my mind be stolen by her ever again.
Regaining my focus, I looked at her, only to find her looking at me with an expression of mild disappointment.
“Why did you take your finger out…? Was it not good?”
“Uh… umm…”
What’s up with you, Sephir?
Why can’t you respond?
Speak up.
Say that it didn’t feel good at all!
“…Ah! Just in time, I have something to show you!”
“Something to show me?”
“Uh-huh… it’ll make you feel good, I promise! Lily liked it too!”
…Swallow.
Her sensual demeanor made it impossible for me not to gulp.
She claimed that it would feel good. What on earth did she mean by that?
No. I can’t accept it.
My whole body warned me not to.
But I was too curious.
Like Pandora’s box, it felt like I shouldn’t open it, yet I couldn’t resist the urge to do so.
“What… what is it?”
Eventually, I couldn’t overcome the temptation.
She gave a big smile before gently laying me on the bed.
“Hehe… you need to stay still?”
Then she leaned in closer to my face.
Lick—
She inserted her tongue into my ear.
