‘Hehehe, as expected.’

Namgung Serin smiled faintly, watching the dazed Kim Geun-hyeop.

‘It’s working perfectly.’

Just as her mother had told her.

According to her mother, men’s minds were filled with nothing but strange thoughts. She said that male martial artists would become disoriented at the mere glimpse of a female warrior’s undergarments.

Honestly, revealing her undergarments to a strange man was something she’d never done, and she’d never even considered the possibility of doing such a thing, so she was incredibly embarrassed. However, the effect was remarkably good in practice.

‘She said the effect is even better with physical contact, and as expected, not a single word my mother says is wrong.’

To think it would work this well.

With just a glimpse of her undergarments and some physical contact, Kim Geun-hyeop was completely disoriented. Watching him like this, she felt a deep satisfaction welling up from her dantian.

Namgung Serin was well aware of her beauty, renowned enough to be called one of the Four Flowers of the Martial World. This was thanks to inheriting the beauty of her mother, who was once called the Flower of the Martial World.

‘Naturally, I am the greatest flower of all time.’

Though those two, especially that small-chested, plump-bottomed, impertinent female Taoist from Mosan sect, would never admit it, Namgung Serin firmly believed she was the most beautiful among the Four Flowers.

Even though she knew this, she hadn’t fully grasped it because she’d always lived amidst praise. The compliments on her beauty were so commonplace that the stimulation had faded.

But look.

The handsome knight who saved her was so smitten with her. That courageous man was utterly captivated.

‘His flustered appearance is quite cute.’

He kept denying it, but Namgung Serin wasn’t one to miss the heated gaze fixed on her body.

Yet, he maintained his composure, revealing his upright character.

‘He seems a little foolish, but overall, he possesses an upright character. Chivalrous, you could say. He’s also quite eloquent and well-mannered.’

As one of the Four Flowers, she had unintentionally charmed many men. There wasn’t a single late-stage disciple who hadn’t fallen for her.

Of course, Namgung Serin wasn’t particularly interested in such things. Even when someone confessed or expressed their feelings, she remained indifferent. She simply declined politely.

However, now her heart was stirring.

It wasn’t just because she owed him a life debt. The short time she spent with Kim Geun-hyeop was enjoyable. A woman’s heart naturally awakened.

‘This is quite entertaining.’

Teasing Kim Geun-hyeop with her beauty, she felt a thrill, as if she had become a breathtakingly beautiful enchantress.

His reactions to her teasing were so amusing she couldn’t stop. Did her mother feel this way when charming men?

‘It is only right for a woman to repay a life debt with her body. I will take better care of you as a friend from now on.’

A warm breeze blew, tickling Namgung Serin’s chest. She felt a warmth in her lower abdomen, perhaps because of her mood.

‘Ah… but these clothes are quite embarrassing. My buttocks are almost exposed with the slightest movement. And what’s with these undergarments? They don’t conceal anything at all. Moreover, the chest area is so tight that it jiggles indecently every time I move, haa. But since the effect is good, I’ll have to endure it.’

Namgung Serin saw Kim Geun-hyeop stealing glances at her.

Normally, such lecherous gazes would only disgust her, but she could forgive this man.

‘It can’t be helped, he’s a pervert. I’ll just have to understand.’

Pretending to turn, Namgung Serin subtly swayed her hips, causing the hem of her qipao to flutter. This briefly revealed her embarrassing undergarments. Naturally, Geun-hyeop’s gaze was drawn to them.

‘My my. Where is this pervert looking now? Isn’t the effect too good? I could even develop this technique into a martial art. Since it’s about me, a beauty, subtly revealing my undergarments, hmm. What should I call it? Ah. Celestial Maiden’s Hidden Bloom sounds about right.’

She would often use Celestial Maiden’s Hidden Bloom to tease Geun-hyeop in the future.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

The martial arts training was over.

I didn’t feel like I did much, but I’m incredibly exhausted.

My whole body is tingling, probably because I continuously circulated my internal energy. It’s a different kind of pain from the muscle soreness after weight training.

“…”

But the most challenging part wasn’t that, but suppressing my lustful thoughts.

I was training alone with a beautiful female warrior in revealing clothing, experiencing frequent physical contact, and to top it all off, she was accusing me of being a pervert.

On top of that, her clothes kept fluttering, revealing her undergarments, driving me to the brink of madness.

It was truly difficult!

“Good work. Pervert, no. Perverted Warrior. No. Geun-hyeop.”

“How many times are you going to get my name wrong?!”

“You should have focused properly then.”

“It was impossible because of those clothes…!”

“Huh? Now you’re blaming my clothes? How can you be so inconsiderate?”

That wasn’t what I meant!

“Not only is it rude to comment on a woman’s attire, but if you truly focus on martial arts, external factors shouldn’t matter. A peak master like me is telling you this, so take it to heart. Isn’t that right?”

“Now that I hear it, I have nothing to say in retort, Master. I’ll tell you again when I find something to retort with.”

“That last part was a bit impertinent. Well, I’m glad you felt it.”

Serin smiled softly as she said that.

“Ah. By the way, Serin.”

“Hmm?”

“Is it okay for you to teach me martial arts like this?”

“What are you talking about? I clearly said it was okay last time.”

“No, it’s not that.”

That part bothered me a little.

“A peak master like you must be busy training your own martial arts, right? Spending time teaching a third-rate nobody like me seems like a big loss for you.”

“Haa. What are you talking about?”

Serin sighed and said,

“It’s okay. As you know, a life debt should be repaid with one’s body, right?”

“W-what?”

Repaid with my body…!

“It’s a natural thing to do. You saved my life, Geun-hyeop. Is my martial arts training more important? I don’t think so.”

“I’m grateful that you say that…”

But her constantly saying “repay with my body” makes strange thoughts sprout in my mind. Like Serin visiting me at night while I’m sleeping, and other such lecherous thoughts.

Of course, just having these thoughts adds to my pervert points.

Right now, I’m not Geun-hyeop, but Perverted-hyeop.

Crackle.

I quickly dispersed those thoughts.

“Ah, but, Serin. Did you notice anything strange while I was training?”

“Hmm? What do you mean?”

“There’s something that’s been bothering me. When I stabbed the Hayagriva…”

At that moment, my concentration exploded, and I felt like I had surpassed my current level.

But that wasn’t all.

At the moment of the stab, purple sparks flew from my sword.

Such a thing doesn’t happen just by stabbing with a sword. If it did, it would be because of the power of internal energy. So, that purple, electric energy must have been released as my internal energy was consumed.

“Purple energy emanated from my sword. Do you happen to know what that is?”

“Purple energy…? Did that really happen?”

“Yeah. Was it my internal energy being emitted through the sword?”

“Yes. If such a phenomenon occurred, that’s the only explanation. Your internal energy was being emitted through your sword.”

Internal energy being emitted through the sword?!

“Then was it sword qi?!”

“Someone who hasn’t even reached the peak level talking about sword qi. As if that’s possible.”

“It’s not?!”

If energy was emitted from the sword, it’s sword qi, right?!

“Haa. Sword qi is like this.”

Serin sighed and raised her sword.

Tszzap!

Blue sword qi enveloped her sword. It was so pure and sharp, it looked like a work of art.

“Can you do this? Huh?”

“No, I can’t.”

“Then it’s not sword qi. Still, if energy emanated, it could be considered unrefined sword qi.”

Unrefined.

“But that’s also strange. If you managed to do even that at your level, it means you have martial arts talent.”
“Martial arts talent!”

“It’s possible it happened because your internal energy accumulated. However, I’m not sure why it was purple. Perhaps it’s the influence of the demonic energy.”

Demonic energy.

“Ah.”

I remembered.

At that moment I stabbed the Hayagriva.

At the moment the purple sparks flew, I felt a sinister energy.

“…”

Maybe it was my imagination. Or maybe I felt it because I got close to the Hayagriva.

Besides, the doctor said there was no problem with my internal energy.

It seems like I’ll have to figure this out myself through training.

“Can you show me now?”

“Now?”

“Huh? Why aren’t you showing me right away? After peeking at my undergarments like that. Are you saying I can, but you can’t?”

“That’s not why…!”

I’m trying to forget about it, but if you keep reminding me with words, I’ll keep thinking about it!

Especially since I’m feeling weird because of my morning wood today…!

“Fine! I’ll try!”

Let’s just try it once.

Shing.

I grabbed the Sky Thunder Sword and took a stance. I tried to draw up my internal energy and imbue it into the sword, but I just ended up sweating, and it didn’t work.

“Can’t you do it?”

“Maybe I’m tired…”

“Isn’t it just because you, Mr. Perverted Warrior, are having strange thoughts? I won’t show you my undergarments, even if you keep doing that.”

Serin said that with a mischievous smile, as if teasing me!

“I never asked to see them! I really can’t! It worked then, but now that I’m trying to do it, it doesn’t work…!”

“I know that feeling well. Let’s try again after you’ve rested sufficiently. I’ll be giving you martial arts lessons for a while, so I’ll have a chance to see it.”

“Okay.”

“Oh, what was that?”

“Nothing. I should rest now.”

“Yes. I’ll have Sibi bring us a meal.”

I’m grateful that she’s even taking care of the meal.

But.

“Hmm?”

Are we going into the annex together?

“Aren’t you leaving?”

“Hmm? Didn’t I just say we’re having a meal?”

“Are we eating together?”

“Huh? Can’t I eat as I please in my own house?”

That’s true.

“Then I’ll wash up and come out, so wait patiently without peeking. I’ll be angry if you touch my undergarments that I’ve taken off.”

“What!!!”
