Chapter 896 – 896. God’S Atlantis
“The effect of the Moon’s Blessing has ended.”
“A certain goddess is cheering you on!”
I couldn’t find a safe place.
No matter how far I walked, all I saw was red sand. To make matters worse, the Moon’s Blessing ended, and I grew weaker. I no longer had the strength to slaughter the demonic beasts.
‘I have no choice. I’ll just have to move as carefully as possible.’
I actively used my unique trait, Deception (SS). I deceived all traces of me and Elena, our scents, footprints, everything. This should allow me to avoid the demonic beasts that were tracking us from a distance.
I decided to deal with any demonic beasts I encountered at close range. Hiding my appearance with Deception (SS) was too inefficient.
As I walked through the desert, I stopped. The sky was already dark. It was still gloomy, so I couldn’t see any stars.
“Yujin. You’re sweating a lot. Am I that heavy?”
“It’s not because of you. Your weight is as light as a feather.”
Elena’s weight was nothing. My body was soaked in sweat because of this damn environment.
“Usually, deserts get cold at night, but it’s the opposite here. It’s getting hotter as the night goes on. I can’t even escape the heat using mana. And the amount of water we can drink is limited. I’m really understanding why this area is called the Drought Zone.”
The reason Elena wasn’t feeling the heat was thanks to the Hecate Cape. One of the Hecate Cape’s abilities, ‘Adapts to polar environments,’ was working perfectly.
“What about using mana or ice to block the heat?”
“Ice as big as me melts in 30 seconds. And I need to save my mana in case we encounter demonic beasts.”
“…That’s troublesome. How about we stop here and rest for a bit?”
I nodded and took out a tent from my inventory. I even tried turning on a fan, but the hot air made me feel like I was going to die. It was the same with water. The water I put on my body didn’t evaporate; it just turned hot, which was counterproductive.
Thwack!
I kicked the tent. It felt suffocating to go inside.
“Don’t.”
“…What do you mean?”
“Hecate Cape. Don’t even think about taking it off. I can endure this heat. The temperature rose at night, so it’ll go down during the day.”
If I was like this, it was obvious what would happen to Elena, who had weakened to the level of an ordinary person, if she took off the Hecate Cape.
“I’ve recovered to some extent. I can endure it for about 10 minutes.”
“That’s just your prediction. Don’t do it.”
When I became stubborn, she shook her head.
“It seems you won’t listen no matter what I say. Fine. Let’s compromise on 5 minutes.”
“…?!”
Elena took off the Hecate Cape and threw it at me.
“Use it or don’t, it’s up to you. I won’t use it for 5 minutes no matter what you say.”
In less than 10 seconds, sweat started to flow down Elena’s face.
“…Crazy bitch.”
I couldn’t stop Elena when she acted like this.
I put on the Hecate Cape. The heat was blocked, and I felt great. To put it extremely, it felt like going from hell to heaven. Though, this place was still hell.
Three minutes passed.
Elena, who had been pretending to be fine, couldn’t hold on any longer and started breathing heavily. Her chest was moving up and down rapidly. The sweat dripping down was a given.
“It’s hard to endure, isn’t it? If you say you were wrong, I’ll give you the Hecate Cape right now.”
“…How amusing. This much is… Ugh…”
Elena, who had been staggering, collapsed onto the sand. I approached her. I didn’t give her the Hecate Cape. It hadn’t been 5 minutes yet. Knowing Elena’s stubbornness, I chose to wait.
“One minute left.”
“It’s quite long. I’m starting to see my father. He’s across the river. Thankfully, he doesn’t look too bad. If it’s a river like this… I think I can swim across…”
“That doesn’t sound like a joke.”
Five minutes passed. I covered Elena’s body with the Hecate Cape. Elena’s breathing returned to normal.
Elena lay on the ground for 10 minutes before forcing her trembling body up.
“Why don’t you just lie down?”
“…My body is sticky with sweat, and the sand is making me feel awful. I want to wash up.”
I did as she wished. I took out a bathtub and filled it with water, adding a lot of ice. It would turn into hot water in a few dozen seconds, but it also meant that she could at least shower in cold water for a few dozen seconds.
“I won’t look. Take a shower.”
“Don’t mind if I do.”
Elena immediately started taking off her clothes. I was startled and turned away. I could hear the sound of her taking off her clothes from behind.
“Why are you suddenly taking them off!”
“It’s fine if you look.”
I want to look. But the person in question was Elena. The Elena who had never gone on a date with me and had always been a wall. I shouldn’t fall for her playful words so easily.
‘I haven’t even properly started my strategy yet, and if I see her naked… Ugh. Just imagining it is terrifying.’
I might lose the trust I’ve built up so far. That would be slightly off from my plan.
‘In a few days, there will be a tender moment. That’s when I should strike.’
Until then, I needed to act like a gentleman.
“That’s troublesome.”
“Why this time?”
“The water turned hot while you were taking off your clothes.”
I got up from my spot. My senses were fine, so I could clearly feel Elena’s location and the location of the bathtub. With my eyes closed, I refilled the tub with ice water.
Splash. Before I could even turn around, Elena had already gotten into the tub.
“Phew. It’s cold. I hate cold water like this… but right now, it feels like I’m in heaven. But Yujin, aren’t you going to open your eyes? Aren’t you interested in my naked body?”
“I’m a gentleman. Don’t provoke me.”
“…You can open your eyes. I promise I won’t scold you.”
“Do you think I don’t know your personality? I don’t believe those words.”
“……”
Her short shower was over. Next was my turn.
“The King of the Heavens clicks his tongue.”
“The Master of the Sky thinks this is interesting in its own way.”
•••
I lay down on a mat in my underwear. I couldn’t stand the heat, so I took off my clothes. It was definitely a little better than wearing them. The problem was that it was still too hot, and I couldn’t sleep.
“This is driving me crazy. I need to sleep to recover my fatigue…”
This was a hell zone. I had to save my full recovery as much as possible.
“There’s a way.”
Elena, who had slept on my back during the day and was now on night watch, said with a smile. She fixed her gaze on my face. I could feel that she was intentionally avoiding looking at my crotch.
“What way? Do you have a secret to falling asleep?”
“There’s a way called illusion magic.”
“You know that illusion magic doesn’t work on me.”
“It might work if you don’t reject my illusion magic. I think it’s worth a try, don’t you?”
“You’re not even in a state to use illusion magic.”
“An illusion that induces sleep isn’t difficult. Especially for me, illusion magic is much easier than other magic.”
“Will it work?”
“The reason why illusion magic is difficult to succeed is because you have to break through the opponent’s mental barrier. This illusion only induces sleep; it doesn’t manipulate or mock the mind. It depends on whether you accept the illusion without resistance. Well, in short, it depends on whether you fully trust me.”
This was a good opportunity. An opportunity to show Elena my trust!
‘I don’t think I’ll get caught because of my mental state… but I should try.’
I was also curious. If I wanted to be affected by illusion magic, could I be?
“Just relax. Tell me when you’re ready.”
“……I’m ready.”
“You might dream, or you might not. My condition is too bad to manipulate your dreams. Don’t blame me if you have a nightmare.”
“Okay.”
Elena’s index finger slowly approached. It got closer and closer to my eyes.
Tap.
Her index finger touched my forehead exactly between my eyebrows.
“I’m not sleepy…”
A sudden drowsiness washed over me. For a brief moment, I thought about resisting, but I decided to give in to the drowsiness. My consciousness sank.
•••
“He fell asleep this easily…?”
Elena was flustered. It was because the illusion magic worked so well that it was bewildering.
Was Sung Yujin pretending to sleep to trick her? Elena could say with certainty that it was absolutely not the case. She wasn’t foolish enough not to be able to distinguish between a person pretending to sleep and a person who was deeply asleep.
“Ha… He didn’t even fall for the illusion magic I cast with all my heart… This is ridiculous.”
She poked Sung Yujin’s cheek with her finger. Even though she poked him with considerable force, he didn’t move.
The illusion magic had worked properly. The problem was that it worked too well. Except for cases where the subject was getting satisfactory sleep, he wouldn’t wake up in the middle of it from any kind of shock. Of course, she could wake him up more easily. She could just slightly move her mana to release the illusion magic. It was a shallow illusion, so that would be enough to wake him.
Elena sat next to Sung Yujin. Night watch was nothing to her. She could sleep during the day while clinging to Sung Yujin’s back.
“……”
Glance, glance.
Her eyes kept turning towards Sung Yujin. Twenty minutes passed like that.
‘He’s sweating so much even while sleeping.’
Elena’s hand reached towards Sung Yujin’s face. She was going to wipe away the sweat. Since she didn’t have a handkerchief, she would use her hand.
The sweat-soaked hair brushed against her slender fingers, and the drops of sweat on his forehead and cheeks fell.
‘He’s quite handsome when I look at him like this. I understand why Seira is so attached to him…’
Elena frowned. Thinking about Seira made her feel bad. She poked Sung Yujin’s cheek again, as if she was being spiteful.
Sung Yujin’s head moved.
“……!!”
He opened his mouth and started sucking and licking Elena’s finger. Elena’s body stiffened. His tongue movements were a bit strange, but she realized what he wanted.
‘He wants water. Well, he is sweating like this…’
In this area, you could only drink 100ml every hour. It was right to give him water even while he was sleeping. Elena picked up the magic water bottle next to her.
If she put it in his mouth, he would drink it on his own. Judging by how he was still acting on instinct even though he was in a deep sleep.
The water bottle that was heading towards Sung Yujin’s mouth stopped midway.
‘…It wouldn’t be fun if I gave it to him too easily.’
Ignoring her suddenly pounding heart, Elena put some cold water on her index finger and put it in Sung Yujin’s mouth. Sung Yujin sucked the water off her finger. His tongue constantly licked her finger, wanting water.
Elena’s lips curled up. She slowly, little by little, carefully fed him water through her finger, like feeding a newborn puppy.
How many times did she repeat this, switching fingers? Both of her hands were sticky with Sung Yujin’s saliva.
She touched his lips. His lips opened, and his tongue came out and licked her finger.
‘It’s like… kissing a finger.’
Elena smiled lewdly at the strange tickling sensation.
‘If… instead of a finger, I put my lips on his…’
How would he react?
The result was obvious, but she was curious.
Her heart, which had been pounding, was now thumping loudly.
“…No, no. I was out of my mind for a moment. Maybe it’s because my body isn’t normal, but I’m even having strange impulses…”
Elena, who had been muttering, stopped her actions. Her widened eyes were directed at Sung Yujin’s crotch. He had fallen asleep wearing only a pair of boxer briefs because it was hot, and by chance, his penis had slipped out through the ventilation hole of the boxer briefs and was standing erect like a pillar.
“……”
Elena had originally had no interest in sex.
But now. Elena couldn’t take her eyes off Sung Yujin’s penis.
Gulp.
She swallowed hard and barely managed to look away.
“…Are you awake? If you’re teasing me, stop it. It’s not funny.”
She tapped Sung Yujin’s face with the palm of her hand. There was no reaction. She even lifted his eyelids and checked the illusion magic. Sung Yujin was deeply asleep.
Elena’s gaze returned to his erect penis.
“…Is it just a physiological phenomenon? I guess I should put it back in.”
Elena approached Sung Yujin’s lower body and reached out to his penis. It was as hard as an iron rod and as hot as a fire. It was alive. The throbbing pulse was vividly felt through her palm.
“I can’t put it back in like this…”
Her slender, white hand grabbed his penis and slowly moved it up and down. As she got more used to it, the movement of her hand became faster.
There was a reaction. A clear, sticky liquid came out from the split part of the tip of his glans.
‘It’s too clear to be semen. Is this the liquid called pre-cum?’
Swish, swish.
Her hand continued to move. As she did it, she figured out how to control her strength. Her hand movements became more skillful, and at some point, his penis trembled and spurted out a white liquid.
It was much more than she had expected, and it went up almost 2 meters before falling onto the sand. Elena slowly observed the semen on her hand.
‘It’s fishy. The texture is sticky… and it probably doesn’t taste good.’
She shook her hand to get rid of the semen. However, her gaze was still focused on Sung Yujin’s penis. It hadn’t shrunk at all. Her delicate hand grabbed his penis again.
Elena made him ejaculate 12 times with her hand alone before she could finally put his penis back into his boxer briefs. Of course, she erased all traces before sunrise.
Sung Yujin opened his eyes a little while after sunrise. Elena, as if nothing had happened, said with a straight face.
“Did you wake up? I don’t know if you were satisfied with your sleep.”
“I feel refreshed and good? I’m very satisfied.”
