It was an experience that felt long overdue. The fear and trembling of the first experience weren’t present. After all, I had been through it before. But the warm lingering sensation from those fuzzy days remained.
Hans blinked blankly. Before he knew it, he had returned to his primal state, propping himself up. Next to him, a woman with red hair was snoring softly in her sleep.
The black underwear he had draped over himself last night was already carelessly tossed on the ground. Staring at it with a dumbfounded expression, Hans splashed some water on his face and thought.
…Is this for real?
Of course, there were excuses. At that time, alcohol was involved. And in a situation where the mood had changed so suddenly. If I were to deny that, then I’d truly be a castrated prick without a single leaf.
However, it wasn’t as if he didn’t feel guilt. Especially for Helia, whom he thought of so specially. He thought of her like a daughter and had raised her.
It was Helia who rescued Hans from his confusion. Helia, who had been sleeping face down, suddenly woke up, one eye closed and the other open, smiling as she grabbed Hans’ hand.
Startled by the soft sensation he felt from her hand, Hans looked at Helia. She still wore a beautiful smile, and he felt no further anxiety from it.
“Are you awake?”
“Y-yes. How are you feeling?”
“Aside from the burning sensation down below, I’m fine.”
“….”
Having been struck down while watching Helia fiddling with her genitals, Hans finally pulled himself together. His head was pounding hard, but he had to push through it somehow.
At that moment, he sensed movement coming from downstairs. Hans nodded. It seemed the other members, who had also been drunk, were waking up. He immediately got up from where he was.
“Then let’s finish getting ready and head down.”
“Yes, darling.”
“…Huh?”
“Is there a problem, Teacher?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
Hans quickly changed his clothes. And Helia did the same. In fact, she changed much faster than Hans, without making a sound. Hans was left dumbfounded.
“Did you only practice changing clothes?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Huh?”
“I didn’t want to be a nuisance, did I?”
Hans quickly turned his head away from Helia’s smiling face. Was it because of what happened last night? As he continued looking at Helia’s face, it began to feel hot.
Hans composed himself and went down to the first floor. They had enemies right in front of them. There was no time to lose focus here. And he was able to see the other members.
It seemed they had drunk themselves senseless. The members were still sprawled out on the floor or the table. Hans tilted his head. While it could be expected from everyone else, even Yuren…?
“A dragon passed out from drinking is a rare sight.”
A dragon getting drunk and collapsing was quite uncommon. They were a different breed altogether when it came to body type, eating amounts, and alcohol tolerance. How could they get drunk after just a few bottles?
As he thought about it, it struck Hans as nonsensical. He picked up a wine glass rolling around beside Yuren. A very strong smell wafted from inside. It was closer to drugs than alcohol.
It seemed obvious that something had been added to the liquor. Hans silently turned to look at Helia, who had just come down. Upon making eye contact, Helia smiled and asked,
“Is there a problem?”
“Did you add something to the alcohol?”
“Yes, I mixed in a drink called Dragon Breath.”
“What?”
“It’s a very potent alcohol that even dragons can get drunk on.”
Dragon Breath. An item in a game. Its pure form was so strong that it needed to be mixed with the potion in an 8:2 ratio to drink. Naturally, the Dragon Breath ratio was 2. But to bring alcohol like that…?
In fact, it was mentioned in the settings that mixing alcohols made the drink even stronger. Usually, it was dragons with high tolerance that would mix such drinks. Hans shook his head.
“No wonder everyone behaved so quietly last night.”
“I took measures in advance.”
“But is this really okay?”
“I don’t think it’s a problem. I neither drugged them nor hypnotized them, did I?”
“….”
That statement wasn’t wrong. Objectively speaking, Dragon Breath was one of those rare alcohols that were very hard to obtain. It couldn’t simply be considered bad to bring and serve it.
Instead, Hans witnessed Helia handing a bag of gold coins to the old couple. The old couple checked the pouch for the gold coins and left without saying a word. What was that about?
Were they looking to bury themselves with their spouse here?
Did she deceive me?
*
“Ouch, my head!”
The members finally woke up from their drunken stupor around lunchtime. After drinking the Dragon Breath mixture, they regained consciousness by lunchtime. Clearly, the members had a monstrous alcohol tolerance.
As they woke up, they spotted Helia clinging to Hans like a mochi. They could also sense the strange atmosphere between the two. Yuren was the first to react.
“Helia! What on earth happened?!”
“I became the lover of my teacher.”
Cough!!
“…?”
With that blunt statement from Helia, Yuren was struck down, and the other members wore blank expressions. But only for a moment, as they turned their gaze towards Hans.
Hmm, strange. Why are there so many deities here like those from that other story? Was I deceived, even? Hans cleared his throat and said,
“Ahem! The term lover is too strong. So…”
But it felt a bit wrong to contradict that, too. Could this just be called a one-night stand? They weren’t even going to see each other after this. If one were to argue, one could say there were positive feelings involved.
As he was lost in thought, Helia, who was sticking to him like glue, turned her face towards Hans. Slowly, her lips began to approach his ear.
“Let’s go♡”
“….”
A small whisper that even the dragon Yuren couldn’t hear. It was crude but so captivating and sweet that Hans could only shut his mouth. More accurately, he burned up.
Last night’s enchanting moments flashed by like a dream. Between guilt and pleasure, Hans’ reason couldn’t bear it all.
Just as the members were surprised to see Hans completely turned to ashes, Helia stepped forward. She wasn’t nude but wearing a red armor.
“Looks like you all understand now? Traffic management is in place.”
“You, this bastard…!!”
“When did you even make a move…?!”
“One shouldn’t let their guard down.”
At Helia’s sharp remark, none of them could speak. Last night, they had all gathered in one place. Moreover, Helia had her share of events as well. So they had convinced themselves to just enjoy it as it was.
But who could have imagined she would make the first move like this? They didn’t even have time to think, as they had simply assumed they would drink and pass out together.
They couldn’t even come up with any excuses. Kluna, who had been glaring at Helia, sighed and shook her head. Well, what can we do? We must acknowledge the facts. She finally spoke up.
“Well, there’s no helping it. So, am I next in line?”
“Huh?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?! Mom! Are you actually accepting this?!”
“Well, it isn’t forced, is it? Besides, we can’t just keep looking over our shoulders like this forever.”
Was that hitting the nail on the head? None could retort against her words. The reason they hadn’t approached Hans until now was due to the mutual restraint between them. They were just observing for any interference.
So they’d maintained balance until now, but with Helia’s actions, that balance was shattered. Any more interference wouldn’t result in unity, only delay it.
And with the first victor declared, now the focus was on securing second place. Kluna looked at Helia. Their eyes met, and Helia smiled as she said,
“Do as you please. I’m not interested in being a concubine.”
While she didn’t harbor the desire to monopolize, the thought of keeping such a wonderful and lovely lover to herself didn’t sit well with her. So she concluded.
If I can’t monopolize it…
Then I’ll become an overwhelming top that no one can touch.
Usually, people call that a primary wife. And Helia had just secured that position. Thus, Kluna sought permission from Helia. After receiving it, Kluna spoke.
“Alright, then today I’ll go first….”
“Wait a minute.”
“Where did that ridiculous opinion come from?”
“Huh?”
They began to dispute their turn, starting to place restrictions on each other. Helia leisurely smiled as she sat on Hans’ lap. A sense of superiority glimmered in her eyes.
