#476

1.
Deneb, curled up on her side like a fetus, was panting with the bed sheet in her mouth.
Her slender fingers, soaked in fragrant oil, were delving into her secret crevice.

It was pointless to explain what that act was.

“Mmm… hmmm… hng… ah…”

At first, she was overwhelmed by feelings of shame and humiliation, trying to completely forget what had happened that day.
She had deceived her sister and Shin Siwoo with plausible excuses and skillful words.
Both her sister and Shin Siwoo believed that Deneb’s disheveled appearance that day was all an act.

But Deneb couldn’t deceive herself.

A mature witch! To feel good! By a man! In an unholy place!
She had been in a frenzy, drinking glasses full of strong liquor every day, saying it was impossible.

And then, when she was thoroughly drunk.

Casually, and she swore to the gods it was casual, Deneb touched the place where he had tormented her, and she felt the sensation of that day once again.

Her body tingled and heated up, her mouth went dry, and a heavy sigh pleasantly scratched her throat, turning into a moan…
A refreshing yet sticky pleasure, as if the cells of her entire body were awakening and activating.

Frankly, it was nothing compared to the full-fledged sensation he had shown her, but from that day on, a new activity was added to Deneb’s daily routine.

Actually, it wasn’t even an activity.
When she was leisurely enjoying a bath, or just before going to bed, or when her head was getting complicated with the magic research that was nearing its end, she would just engage in a secret hand game for a brief moment.

Of course, at first, she felt self-loathing.
After all, it was a place that couldn’t be called a typical hole for pleasure, and the way she had come to know this pleasure was also extraordinary.

But the vague self-loathing was far away, and the sweet, intuitive pleasure of the body was close.
She had no intention of asking him for another encounter, so she wasn’t exactly committing a sin against her twin.
Wasn’t sexual pleasure something that many witches already explored?

So, it was just like Deneb occasionally enjoying fine wine or gourmet food, one more hobby had been added.
Thus, whenever Deneb felt a sexual desire rising like hunger, she would go through a brief rationalization and continue her ‘hobby.’

Deneb narrowed her eyes and looked at the bed.
Come to think of it, this was where she had done the verification with Shin Siwoo.

After the event, she had used magic to clean and deodorize it without leaving a single trace of stain, but for some reason, at this moment, she felt a whiff of a male scent spreading.

“Haa…”

Deneb let out a wistful sigh and unconsciously recalled the experience of that time.

The moment his soft tongue fearlessly penetrated deep inside.
The moment a hard object, with a heat and thickness that was shameful to even compare to a finger, was inserted.

The most humiliating and degrading moment of her life.
He had pinned down the struggling Deneb and roughly, as if devouring her, had intensely explored her body.

“How dare… how dare… he… ugh…”

At that moment, Deneb was neither a high-ranking countess nor a wise great witch. She was just a pitiful prey.
Where else would Deneb receive such treatment?
Even in this Gehenna, there were few witches who could treat the Jemina family carelessly.
Regardless of the resentment that was welling up, paradoxically, Deneb’s body was heating up even more.

“Kkeueueung…”

Deneb writhed again and bit down hard on the sheet.

Honestly, compared to that time, it was a trivial sensation.
It was like the difference between a fireworks display that cost dozens of gold coins and a small firecracker.

Nevertheless, her underwear was soaked, her body trembled, and she was immersed in joy.

“Hee…”

With a strange sound escaping through her teeth, the strength drained from Deneb’s body.

Deneb, who was sprawled out languidly like someone enjoying the drowsiness that comes after a satisfying meal, soon used magic to make her body and the sheet neat.

And she didn’t stop there, adding another magic.
A magic of soundproofing.
For Deneb, who used songs as her self-made magic, it was a magic as simple as child’s play.

And then came the time of hysteria.

“Ah!!! This is so annoying!!!!”

Deneb shouted with all the sound in her lungs and punched the pillow on the bed.
She didn’t care about the feathers fluttering like the first snow as she rampaged.

No matter how much she had rationalized it in various ways, she was a proud countess of Gehenna.
Even if she was starving, now that her thirst had been quenched through happy time, the cracks in her flimsy disguise were bound to show.

The fact that this act was extremely embarrassing and shameful, and the fact that the whole story of how Deneb had come to this act was also shameful, began to peck at Deneb, mixed with the intense saint time.

And Deneb prepared a shield for the onslaught of self-loathing.

“Shin Siwoo! You wretched bastard!”

She spoke the name of the man who was not there, but had been lingering in Deneb’s mind until just now.

“It’s all because of you!”

If it weren’t for him, Deneb wouldn’t have had to worry about her twin’s man problems, and if that were the case, she wouldn’t have had to go through the verification, and if that were the case, she wouldn’t have had to endure this humiliating feeling alone.

Deneb punched the pillow, venting her frustration.
She thought that she would kick him in the shin when she saw him again.

2.
The snowflakes that hadn’t melted even in the winter sun were frozen like flowers, hanging on the bare branches.
These snow flowers, which could only be seen in winter, had their own charm when you looked at them.

Amelia and Siwoo strolled through them.
They were holding hands affectionately, occasionally giggling and chatting.

“……”

And there were three pairs of eyes watching them intently.

Sharon, Odile, and Odette.
The lecture hall, where they were conducting their usual elemental class, was located in a place that overlooked the central garden of the count’s estate.

Since Odile, who was sitting by the window, had discovered Siwoo and Amelia, the class had been put on the back burner.
The teacher, Sharon, and the students, Odile and Odette, were all engrossed in watching the two on their date.

“How do they look?”
“They look good.”

Odile and Odette whispered quietly, as if they were on a hunt.
They were so serious that it wouldn’t have been strange if they were each holding a hunting rifle in their hands.

Sharon, who was standing somewhat awkwardly behind them, was also following the two with her eyes.

Amelia Marigold, the witch of perfume.
When Siwoo, who had been a slave in Gehenna, told stories of the past, there was always a strange blank space, as if the beginning and end had been cut off.

And perhaps the woman over there was the identity of that blank space.

It was said that a beauty could show off her beauty even a hundred steps away, and now she understood why that saying existed.
The Tiferet Duke, the twins, all showed off their own charms, and Sharon had always been confident that she had her own charm that was no less than theirs, but just looking at her from here, she lost a bit of her confidence.

What kind of turmoil was waiting ahead…
As she sighed deeply, she heard the twins’ complaints from under her chin.

“Ugh… to have someone else added here…”
“Calm down, sister. In a way, it was expected.”
“Well… it’s not like our assistant, who charms women with just a glance, would leave Professor Amelia alone.”
“Right? So nothing has changed. We just have to continue our fight.”

They had been muttering to each other like this since earlier.
And here was a slightly unexpected point.

“Hey, girls.”
“Sharon, we’re busy right now.”
“That’s right, we’ll do today’s class as homework next time.”
“That’s not it, I was just wondering why you’re being so quiet.”

That’s right.
It wasn’t like Sharon wanted the two to jump out and disrupt the date.

But considering the twins’ usual behavior, and considering how they had engaged in a serious love battle with Sharon in the past, they should have been running to Amelia and Siwoo’s side right away.
The fact that they were watching quietly like this was unlike the twins.

At those words, the twins looked at Sharon as if she had said something strange.

“What, what is it? Did I say something weird?”

Seeing Sharon’s confusion, Odile nodded as if she understood.
Odette nodded along from the side.
The twins’ trademark half-bonnets moved like fans, creating a small breeze.

“Oh, I see, Sharon hasn’t met the professor, has she?”
“How scary the professor is.”
“Scary?”

Odile and Odette nodded.

“Yes, she’s like a block of ice.”
“She’s strict when grading assignments, her voice is scary… and her eyes…”
“It’s like, if we interfere now, we’ll get scolded a lot…”
“That’s right, that’s right… and she’s a witch, after all. She’s older than us…”

The fact that the O twins, who would run with their eyes wide open when it came to their assistant, were being so cautious and carefully observing the situation was an unfamiliar sight to Sharon.

Then, suddenly, a scene that could not be ignored flashed in her mind.

“What? Then what about me? Aren’t I scary?”

The memory of them grabbing each other’s hair and rolling around in this lecture hall came back to her vividly.
The twins stared at Sharon and then smiled and replied.

“Hey, Sharon is Sharon.”
“What does that mean!”
“Come to think of it, Sharon isn’t scary at all.”
“Be scared of me too!”

While they were talking about this and that, the three were watching Siwoo and Amelia disappear into the distance of the garden.
Anyway, with the situation having become so chaotic, it seemed impossible to have a class.

“Okay, let’s stop here for today.”
“Odette, we need to reopen the emergency committee.”
“Okay, sister.”

Sharon smiled wryly as she watched the twins disappear in a hurry without even saying a proper goodbye.

“Sigh.”

In fact, it wasn’t the time for Sharon to be making leisurely observations about how cute the twins were.

Until now, the love front had been a friendly three-way competition between Odile, Odette, Eloa, and Sharon, and although it might sound a bit strange, Sharon had even felt the bickering competition surrounding Siwoo as a simple happiness.

It wasn’t just Siwoo who was precious.
She was feeling the friendship and bond that she hadn’t felt during the years she had struggled to pay off her debts in the mortal world, ironically, from the women who loved the same man.

Therefore, she also had a sense of unease that the appearance of a new competitor might break the balance that had been precariously maintained.

“It would be nice if we could all just get along well like this…”

Just as she was muttering that.

-Knock knock

There was a knock.
There shouldn’t be anyone else coming at this time, so Sharon looked at the table, wondering if the twins had left their homework behind.

“Excuse me.”

Behind the door that opened after the knock, Amelia, who had been strolling in the garden just now, was standing there.
