## Chapter 59 – (10)
Seol-yeong’s treatment was difficult from the very first step.
I tried to channel my inner energy into her through her back, but it was as if something was blocking it, preventing the energy from easily entering Seol-yeong’s body.
I felt like a small boat facing a massive iceberg.
My inner energy was absolutely insufficient.
“…I knew it.”
Seol-yeong murmured in a sorrowful voice.
Seol-yeong’s voice, who had approached me with a small hope, trembled slightly.
It was too early to give up.
The Solar Heart Sutra had two characteristics.
One was that it was an inner energy cultivation method of extreme Yang, and the other was that the longer the fight, the more the inner energy amplified.
At first, I took the words that I would become stronger the longer the fight lasted at face value, but now that wasn’t the case.
What was written in the secret manual was just a metaphor.
In reality, the faster the heart beat and the faster the blood circulation, the more the inner energy amplified.
There were many ways to make the heart beat faster.
After contemplating, I slowly began to speak.
“…There’s still a way.”
I told her about the characteristics of the Solar Heart Sutra that I knew.
Seol-yeong, who had been listening to me with a blank expression, widened her eyes slightly towards the end.
“Inner energy increases with excitement…”
I know.
No matter how you looked at it, it wasn’t a martial art that you would find in the library of the Martial Arts Academy.
Frankly, it was no different from a sex art.
But there was not a single lie in my words.
What can I do if my inner energy really amplifies the more sexually aroused I become?
Seol-yeong stared at me quietly and said.
“…Then what do I have to do?”
“Can I call Jeong-seon?”
“…What?”
Seol-yeong’s bewildered voice echoed in the room.
I understood Seol-yeong’s bewilderment, but I couldn’t help it.
Jeong-seon was the one who could excite me the most right now.
***
“You’re calling Jeong-seon…?”
“Yeah, is that okay?”
“…Do as you wish.”
She gave permission, but I felt a strange mix of emotions.
When Seong-han told her about the Solar Heart Sutra, her heart fluttered for some reason.
Since inner energy amplified with excitement, she wondered if Seong-han might ask her to do something.
And if that were the case, she would have no choice but to allow it.
She would do even worse for the sake of treatment.
But the answer that came from Seong-han was far beyond her expectations.
‘To think he’s a homosexual…’
She never imagined that Seong-han, of all people, would have a preference for other men.
She also felt a little sorry for him.
Seong-han chose the Solar Heart Sutra, and as the days went by, she thought that he might be the savior who would save her, as he grew stronger day by day.
Honestly, a faint feeling of affection was budding in one corner of her heart.
But he likes men.
She felt complicated.
Seong-han got up for a moment to call Jeong-seon, and she sat blankly on the bed.
And she fell into contemplation.
Her outfit was quite provocative right now.
It was okay to show it to Seong-han, but she was a little hesitant to show it to Jeong-seon.
Of course, Jeong-seon, unlike other men, didn’t give her any attention.
Maybe Jeong-seon likes men too.
“…”
Have Seong-han and Jeong-seon become a well-matched couple?
The door opened, and Jeong-seon and Seong-han walked in side by side.
Maybe it was just her imagination, but their bodies felt too close.
It felt like they were almost hugging.
And for some reason, Jeong-seon’s clothes and appearance felt different than usual.
Was it because she had never looked at him so closely before?
His eyelashes were longer than she thought, and the contours of his body felt slender.
Like a woman.
“Ah, is that why you wanted me to come?”
“Yeah, please.”
Jeong-seon nodded as if he understood just by looking at her and the room for a moment.
Then he sat behind her with Seong-han.
“Seol-yeong, no matter what happens from now on, don’t look back. Got it?”
“…Back?”
“Yeah, Seong-han might suffer from Qi Deviation if you do.”
“…”
Jeong-seon told her that she absolutely had to keep that in mind.
He said that Seong-han could get hurt.
If he said that, she couldn’t turn back anymore.
She couldn’t hurt Seong-han, who was working hard for her.
She obediently faced forward and gave her back to Seong-han again.
She felt warm, thick palms on her back again.
Just the touch of them seemed to slowly melt her body, which had been frozen for a long time.
However, this was the limit.
Like a ray of light in a cloudy sky.
She could only see a small hope that the weather would get better.
Her illness and Seong-han’s relationship were exactly like that.
She could only see a small hope that her illness would get better if Seong-han was there.
Then Seong-han said softly.
“Help me.”
“…Really?”
“Yeah, quickly.”
Then, she heard Seong-han’s urging words and Jeong-seon’s faint laughter from behind her, and at the same time, she heard a sticky sound.
“Eugh… Puh-ha… Slurp.”
It was a sound that she couldn’t even guess what it was.
It sounded like licking candy, or a wet sound like rubbing wet hands.
Because she couldn’t see, her sense of hearing was heightened, and she kept imagining the sound.
And the change happened.
“Haa… eugh.”
She covered her mouth with her hand to prevent the sound from coming out.
It was the first time.
It was the first time that such a sound came out of her mouth, and it was also the first time that she felt a strange sensation of warmth spreading from her back to her whole body.
It was like time was going back.
Back to when she was young, before she got sick, when she was full of emotions.
As darkness disappears in bright light, the wave of inner energy that started from her back was gently, sometimes ruthlessly, devouring the Yin energy in every part of her body.
The Yin energy, which seemed like it would block her blood vessels for the rest of her life, was being absorbed into Seong-han’s inner energy so easily.
It was as if Seong-han was filling her body.
Her voice flowed out from the warmth and fulfillment.
“Aah…”
And this time, she couldn’t stop the voice.
She let out a moan that sounded like she was flirting in front of two men, embarrassingly.
Even she thought it was a lewd voice.
For the first time, she felt glad that the two men were behind her.
Otherwise, they would have seen her blushing cheeks.
And at that moment, the amount of inner energy she felt in her back increased.
‘This is…’
Did he get excited by her voice?
Just by her voice?
She felt strange that Seong-han was excited by her voice.
No, she liked it.
She thought he liked men, but even so, Seong-han was getting excited by her.
Seong-han’s inner energy was getting stronger and stronger, and now the inner energy was being transmitted to parts of her body that were quite far from her back.
Her neck, shoulders, arms, and chest and waist.
The sticky Yin energy caused by the Nine Yin Meridians, which had accumulated for years, burned in the light and flowed out as a handful of breath.
“Haa, haa…”
Sometimes a cold breath like ice flowed out, and sometimes a hot sigh flowed out of her mouth.
She didn’t cover her mouth anymore.
Because she felt good every time Seong-han reacted to her voice.
Her expression, which hadn’t changed for years, was undergoing a slight change.
“Heu-eung…, Seong-han-ah…”
Jeong-seon called Seong-han, and then she heard a sound of something being untied.
She couldn’t quite figure out what the sound was.
It felt like cloth or clothes, but it was a little different.
And she was able to see what it was.
A bandage was thrown next to her with a thud.
Thanks to that, she was able to check without turning her gaze back.
However, a bandage.
‘Was he hurt?’
She didn’t see a bandage on Jeong-seon’s body when he opened the door and came in earlier.
She didn’t see a bandage on Seong-han’s body either.
That meant he had a bandage on somewhere she couldn’t see.
‘Why?’
Usually, bandages are used on places that are sore or injured.
But why did he take it off now?
Besides, why did he take off the bandage now?
“Heu-eut…”
Did Seong-han’s inner energy increase once again?
She couldn’t figure out what was going on behind her back.
The sound of dry skin rubbing against each other was only heard, which stimulated her imagination even more.
“Haa…”
The faint moans she heard from Seong-han’s mouth were too stimulating.
She was jealous of Jeong-seon, who was watching and creating that scene.
If she was a man…
She inadvertently had such a thought.
“Aah-eung…”
And then she heard an unfamiliar moan.
Whose high-pitched voice is that?
It couldn’t be Seong-han.
Because the timing of the moans overlapped.
Then the only one left is Jeong-seon.
Was Jeong-seon’s voice that thin?
She couldn’t remember it being that way, even if she searched her memories.
She wanted to turn back.
She wanted to confirm whether the small suspicion that had arisen in her heart was real.
However, she endured it for Seong-han’s sake.
Her suspicions were trivial compared to Seong-han’s safety.
“It’s almost the limit.”
“…Yeah.”
Seong-han answered with a hint of regret at Jeong-seon’s words.
Many parts of her body had improved surprisingly, but she couldn’t do anything about the Yin energy around her dantian.
She had eliminated countless Yin energy, but her dantian, which spread Yin energy throughout her body, was as unshakable as a rock.
Still, it was enough.
Her body wasn’t shaking, and she wasn’t breathing out cold air.
Her trembling hands and her voice, which had been weak as if she had a cold, had improved a lot.
The Yin energy would fill her whole body again over time, but she didn’t care.
She wanted to enjoy this warmth completely right now.
Instead of Yin energy, something hot settled in one corner of her heart.
A desire-filled feeling for Seong-han.
