“Johan, Johan!”
“Yes, Master?”
“Today… how about it?”
“…I’m sorry. Today is a bit-”
“Ah, I see…”
Johan moved away from Evangeline’s sight. Watching this, she felt the growing distance between herself and her disciple.
This had started happening since their intimate encounter. Unless she was a complete fool, it wasn’t hard to guess why Johan was acting this way.
‘Of course, he must have found my body disgusting, just like everyone else…’
Regardless of whether the curse was involved, he must have found her body revolting. There could be no other reason for him to avoid her like this.
Evangeline regretted not going further that first night. Had she known her disciple would avoid her like this, rather than just satisfying her curiosity about his essence, she would have pursued a deeper connection.
She would have offered her virginity, creating an unforgettable memory…
‘Johan…’
Evangeline swallowed her regrets and locked herself in her room.
Of course, Johan wasn’t avoiding her for the reasons she imagined.
“Hey apprentice, did something happen with Evangeline?”
“What? No. Why suddenly…”
“You seem to be avoiding her a lot lately.”
“Ah…”
Johan couldn’t say it. He couldn’t admit that her making him climax nine times with just her hands had felt incredible, and that he was afraid of dying before even losing his virginity properly. For a man, admitting such an embarrassing thing to a woman was impossible, even if Marguerite had a curse that made her invisible to others.
Though she wasn’t completely cut off from the world and could converse whenever she wanted, even if it was troublesome…
“Nothing happened.”
So Johan hid his reasons for avoiding Evangeline even from Marguerite. Though she sensed something was off, she couldn’t grasp the true reason for the growing distance between them.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
While not as distinct as Korea’s four seasons, this world also experienced seasonal changes. The sun beating through the dense leaves began heating everything up.
Just standing still caused sweat to pour down. It truly felt like summer.
After picking vegetables for the next couple days, I quickly went inside the cabin. Through some mysterious principle, the heat dissipated and coolness enveloped my body. If it got too cold to the point of shivering, warmth would return, maintaining the perfect temperature.
‘To think I’d experience air conditioning in a fantasy world… that’s magic for you.’
I began washing vegetables while marveling at Master’s magical prowess. After cleaning off the dirt and drying them, I stored them in the cellar.
The fruits and vegetables here didn’t spoil. Though not refrigerated, it worked just like a refrigerator. I took some fruit up to the living room to peel and eat.
‘I’ve become quite the housewife…’
When I first arrived at this cabin, I couldn’t even peel fruit properly, but now my skills would be presentable in any shop.
Looking at the apple I’d cut into a rabbit shape, I couldn’t help but admire my handiwork and want to show it off. So I took a plate full of fruit and headed to Master’s room.
“Master? May I come in?”
─…Come in.
Upon receiving permission, I entered to find Master surrounded by a pungent medicinal smell. Though she used magic to ventilate the smell, it couldn’t be helped while she was actively making potions.
After briefly wrinkling my nose as I entered, Master saw my expression and quickly covered her cauldron to stop the smell from escaping.
“Here, have some while you work.”
“…Thank you, just leave it there.”
“Master, you said the same thing last time but didn’t eat any…”
“Get out!”
“…Yes, I’m sorry.”
Startled by Master’s sudden outburst, I set down the plate and carefully left the room. Recently, Master had been getting angry more frequently. It must be that time – the magical day that visits women once a month.
My irritation-clouded thoughts were probably insufficient. The great witch who had lived for centuries could probably handle an orc male several hundred times. Not some mediocre man like me who passed out after just nine times.
Since I could understand this perfectly well, I refrained from approaching her afterward. But the more I avoided her, the worse her outbursts became─.
“Ugh, this is so frustrating. So frustrating.”
“…Pardon?”
“You and Evangeline both. What are you two doing?”
“But Master is the one pushing me away first…”
“Do you really think that? That she’s pushing you away?”
“Well, isn’t she obviously doing exactly that?”
“This is why men are such…”
Hearing my words, Marguerite let out a deep sigh and glared at me. Her gaze held such intensity it felt like killing intent.
After glaring at me for a while, Marguerite shook her head as if giving up and pulled something out. Since it was a familiar object, I stared intently at what she had produced.
“What’s this? You know what this is?”
“…A swimsuit, isn’t it?”
“That’s right. It’s a swimsuit. Impressive that you know.”
What she had pulled out was a women’s swimsuit – specifically a bikini. Though it hadn’t been long since such things were invented even on Earth, how did she have something like this?
But before I could voice such doubts, Marguerite tossed the bikini swimsuit to me.
“Here, catch.”
“Why are you giving this to me…”
“Go tell Evangeline we should go to the beach.”
“The beach…?”
“Yes, the beach.”
Was there even a beach in this world? No, even if there was one, how would we get there from this mountain cabin in the middle of nowhere?
As I was thinking this, I remembered who was standing before me. The Witch of Space, who could freely traverse space – in other words, someone unbound by distance.
“…Master probably wouldn’t like somewhere with lots of people.”
“Don’t worry. I know a few beaches with no people.”
“Well in that case…”
Hearing her suggestion about the beach, I immediately grabbed the swimsuit and headed to Master’s room. I had loved beaches even back on Earth. Because I could see girls in swimsuits.
And─ just imagining how beautiful Master would look in a bikini made me want to go to the beach right away. I wanted to appreciate that feminine figure at the beach.
“─Master, may I come in?”
─…What now?
“I have something to discuss…”
Master gave permission to enter. When I went inside with the permission, I frowned at the fruit plate that hadn’t been touched at all. Did she dislike even things I gave her…?
“What is it?”
“Ah, well, this…”
“…What is that, underwear?”
“It’s a swimsuit.”
“A swimsuit?”
“Yes, Master. ─Would you like to go to the beach together?”
Hearing my invitation to the beach, Master frowned and glared at me. Perhaps she didn’t want to go anywhere with someone like me─.
After silently glaring at me for a while, she slowly opened her mouth:
“Go by yourself.”
“No! I want to go with you, Master!”
“…Why?”
“Huh?”
“Why would you want to go with someone like me? Wouldn’t you rather go with Marguerite or that female knight than a repulsive woman like me?”
“…Master?”
Something was off. I had thought she was just in a bad mood because of that time of the month, but there was something more going on.
Come to think of it, it was absurd to think a centuries-old witch would still get periods. Shouldn’t she have run out of eggs ages ago…?
I stared into her eyes with a serious expression.
“Master. What do you mean by that?”
“Well, you must find me disgusting too.”
“Disgusting? I like you, Master.”
“Liar, when you’ve been avoiding me for days.”
“…That’s.”
That’s because you’re too arousing.
So arousing that you milked me almost ten times when things got heated.
I’m afraid I might actually die, afraid I won’t be able to satisfy you.
As a man, these were the worst things to admit, so the words wouldn’t come easily. But I had to say them. I instinctively realized this. Hiding this fact out of petty pride could lead to complete disaster.
“…because.”
“What?”
“Because Master is too arousing…”
“…What?”
While she let out a confused laugh, I continued throwing out direct statements.
“Master gets so excited you go almost ten rounds…”
“W-well, that’s true…”
“But I’m human, not a witch. Normal men struggle after just one time.”
“R…really?”
“Yes, honestly speaking─ I’m afraid I might die with Master. It feels amazing, but I’m worried it might actually kill me.”
Hearing my honest confession, she hung her head as if realizing something. Well, having lived as a virgin for centuries, such misunderstandings were possible.
That men were monsters of lust who could keep going ten or a hundred times… In reality, that wasn’t the case.
“I avoided you because I was scared of that, not because I disliked you.”
“…I see, so that’s what it was.”
“Yes. Though honestly, Master is partly to blame.”
“M-me? What did I do?”
“If Master were less arousing, we wouldn’t have gone ten rounds. The problem is being so arousing that it stays up even after ten times.”
“…Haah.”
As if impressed by my smooth talking, Master’s darkened eyes began shifting to a rosy hue.
Now was the time. I held up the bikini I was holding and pressed her:
“Since I want to see Master’s arousing bikini look, let’s go to the beach.”
She nodded without resistance.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
Private beach.
On Earth where the entire planet had fallen under humanity’s control, this was a luxury only the wealthiest could afford.
On a planet overflowing with people wherever you went, having land for your exclusive use held immense value. I had thought I would never be able to visit, let alone own, such a place.
‘Wow… this is amazing.’
Looking at this beautiful natural scene, I could understand why wealthy people wanted uninhabited islands.
They must have wanted to monopolize such pristine nature because it was so beautiful. Or perhaps to prevent others from defiling it.
“Johan.”
As I was admiring the scenery, Master and Marguerite appeared behind me in their swimsuits. Just moments ago I had thought nothing could be more beautiful than the ocean before me, but I was wrong.
Master in her swimsuit was more beautiful than the translucent jewel-blue sea. The contrast of her pale skin and hair against the black lace swimsuit was incomparable to anything else.
“H-how is it? Not bad? Not too bad?”
“…Master.”
“Y-yes?”
“You’re beautiful. Truly. So beautiful I’m speechless…”
At my words, Evangeline bloomed into a smile more beautiful than any other. While Marguerite asked how her swimsuit looked beside us, I headed into the water with Master.
The translucent shining sea became an ornament that enhanced Master’s beauty even further. Beauty upon beauty. As I was quietly watching this sight, I carefully went back to shore to bring Marguerite.
“Marguerite. What are you doing?”
“…I got you two here, and brought the swimsuits, but why am I being ignored?”
“I wasn’t ignoring you. Master just came first.”
“That’s the same thing!”
“Kyaaaah─!”
Just as Marguerite screamed, a piercing shriek rang out from behind. When I turned around in shock, Master was dangling in the air.
Looking closer, something transparent had wrapped around Master’s legs and lifted her high into the air.
Watching Master suddenly turn this into a tentacle scene, I turned to ask Marguerite:
“…I thought you said there were no people here?”
“I-I said there were no people! I didn’t say there were no monsters!”
“Ah…”
Finally understanding her words, I let out a hollow laugh.
She wasn’t exactly wrong.
It was natural for monsters to swarm in places without people.
“Don’t just watch, help me!”
However, powerless as I was, I could only watch Master’s legs spread wide.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
It’s a mandatory beach episode with some hijinks thrown in.
Oh ho, the great tentacle god is at work again
