EP.207 Oil Massage

“Haah… Haah…”

Adeline sat on the bench, breathing heavily.

Beads of cold sweat dotted her forehead.

Seeing her like that made me feel so sorry. I’ll make it up to her later.

I took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her forehead.

“Are you okay?”

“No… It’s tough… But with demons everywhere, I can’t just sit back and do nothing…”

“You’ve used Divine Power twice already. These aren’t even demons that affect humans… Wouldn’t it be better to take it easy?”

At my slightly subdued voice, Adeline slowly turned her head.

With a weak smile, she took my hand.

“Don’t say that… Thankfully, the Evil Energy isn’t detectable anymore… We can go sightseeing…”

“Sightseeing? The sun’s already set.”

“We can do it tomorrow…”

Well, the situation I wanted has been created, but I prefer you being lively.

My heart aches. But I can’t say anything since I planned it this way…

“Can you even go sightseeing when you’re this exhausted?”

“I’ll feel better after sleeping… Now, Jihyuk, go back to the car, lower the passenger seat, and lay me down there.”

Her command was so specific that I couldn’t help but chuckle.

Adeline, grinning at me, urged me on.

“Hurry up.”

“Got it.”

After adjusting the passenger seat and returning, I crouched down, and Adeline stretched out her arms to wrap them around my neck.

“Jihyuk…”

“Yes?”

“I’d like to stay at a hotel tonight where I can order peanut ice cream and carrot cake via 24-hour room service, with a view of Jeju Island’s nightscape. And…”

“Is there more?”

“Yes. A TV with all channels and a bathtub where I can enjoy a spa.”

“I’ll look for one.”

Nodding, I carried Adeline to the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt.

Then, I started searching for a hotel that met her conditions.

Watching me, she smiled brightly.

My heart’s melting, melting…

**

From a distance, Adeline fiddled with her device while glancing at me.

It seemed like she had used a significant amount of power and was feeling obsessive about recharging.

How much did she use? At least 50%…

I got up, turned off the TV, and approached Adeline, who was lying on the bed.

“Adeline.”

“Yes…?”

“The ice cream has melted.”

“…It’s tasteless…”

Don’t lie. You were scooping it up with a big spoon just a moment ago.

As I was about to let it slide, Adeline gave another command.

“T-Take this away and order the carrot cake… I need a small fork.”

“Will do.”

“Add strawberry milk too.”

“Yes.”

As I was about to go order room service,

“Hey… Jihyuk…!”

Adeline called out urgently, and I turned around.

“Do you have something to say?”

“You know I used a lot of power today, right?”

“Of course.”

“I don’t have much strength left… S-So, I’ll grant you the special privilege of giving me a shoulder massage…”

I burst out laughing.

Adeline’s tone, as if she was doing me a favor, was just too funny.

Clapping and laughing out loud, Adeline pouted and shouted,

“W-Who said you could laugh!? Stop it right now!”

I clenched my mouth shut but couldn’t stop the giggles.

Honestly, I thought she’d ask for a massage.

She’d been tapping her shoulders while glancing at me the whole way to the hotel.

That’s why I bought oil beforehand. I’ll make her feel really good today.

After calming myself down, I wiped my eyes and raised a hand in a gesture of apology.

“Sorry. But can’t I laugh freely?”

“Well, no… But you were mocking me!”

“I wasn’t mocking you. I laughed because I like you so much. Haven’t you ever had that experience?”

Adeline bit her lip.

Seems she had no comeback. Smiling at her, I asked,

“Should I give you a massage after you finish the cake?”

“W-Well, now would be fine too…”

“What about the room service?”

“It’s 24-hour anyway…”

“Got it.”

I nodded readily, cleared the portable table, and knelt behind Adeline.

Placing my hands on her stiff shoulders, I began the massage.

“Relax. If you tense up, it won’t feel good.”

“Okay…”

I gently tapped her slightly slumped shoulders and started the massage.

I really only did a massage. I focused solely on her shoulders, not touching anywhere else.

How long had it been? Adeline, who had been letting out relaxed sighs with each pressure point, glanced at me.

“Jihyuk… Isn’t it tiring?”

“Not at all.”

“…Then keep going.”

“Okay.”

“If it’s too much, you can massage the back of my neck…”

“I said it’s not tiring.”

“T-Then… Hyaah!?”

Adeline jumped in surprise.

My hand had suddenly moved forward.

Gently stroking her collarbone, I slid my hand to the front of her neck and peeked over her head.

“Is this overstepping?”

“Huah… No…”

“Feels like the disciplinary action depends on your mood. Isn’t that unfair?”

“A-Are you arguing now?”

“Not really. I’m tired. Can I stop?”

“…You said it wasn’t tiring, so I’ll take that as a lie… Keep going…”

“Then, how about lying on your stomach?”

Adeline flinched and asked,

“On my stomach…?”

“Yes. Your shoulders aren’t stiff at all. Since you walked a lot today, a leg massage would be better.”

After saying that, I moved aside to give her space.

Adeline, letting out an innocent “Aha…,” lay on her stomach, burying her face in the pillow.

In that position, she turned her head to look at me.

“I’m lying down…”

“Wait a moment.”

I quickly ran to the living room and brought out the lavender-scented massage oil I had secretly bought earlier.

Returning to the bedroom, I sat beside Adeline.

Let’s start with just a bare-handed massage.

Placing my hands on her calves, I asked,

“Can I start?”

“Yes…”

Adeline was wearing 8/10 training pants that revealed her lower shins.

I moved to the foot of the bed, slightly lifted the hem of her pants, and gently massaged her thin, pale ankles, starting with her Achilles tendon.

“Tell me if it hurts.”

“Okay…”

Did she sense the mood getting awkward? Her voice had dropped significantly.

I cupped her foot with my fingers and began pressing her sole with my thumb.

Rubbing the curve of her small sole, her toes curled adorably, as if ticklish.

“Hu… Hu…”

She let out a long breath, seemingly tense.

When I lightly scratched her heel with my thumbnail, she pulled her arms close and gripped the pillow tightly.

I carefully pressed each of her toes, spreading her legs apart and sitting between them to massage her lower calves.

“Huu…”

“Does it feel good?”

“Y-Yes…”

“How about the pressure? Is it okay?”

“It’s just right… Keep going like this…”

It wasn’t a deep massage, just light strokes to give her a tingling sensation.

Yet, she said the pressure was just right? She’s really enjoying this pseudo-massage foreplay.

Adeline slipped her right hand under the pillow.

An attempt to hide her buzzing device. Her thoughts were so transparent it was funny.

Feeling a bit bolder, I moved my hands up her calves to her thighs, gently stroking them.

Adeline tensed her legs and shuddered.

“Huuu…”

“Does it hurt somewhere?”

“N-No… Keep going… And no more small talk…”

“That’s harsh.”

“Do you want to be disciplined…? Focus… Huah… Please…”

“Got it.”

This time, I pressed my fingers into the area between her buttocks and thighs… the inner thigh.

Soft and elastic. Perfect.

At the same time, Adeline clenched her buttocks.

The polyester pants smoothed out and then wrinkled again.

Visually satisfying too.

Placing my hands on her firm buttocks, I pressed and moved them up, down, left, and right.

Then, I slid one hand between her thighs, using the edge of my hand to brush past her labia.

“Huu…! Hu…!”

Adeline squirmed, letting out much more intense moans.

Barely holding back my laughter, I said,

“Adeline.”

“No small talk…! I clearly told you…?”

“This is related to the massage. I’d like to use oil. What do you think?”

“Oil…?”

“I’ll start with your feet. Try it, and if it’s good, ask for more.”

“O-Okay…”

With Adeline’s consent, I opened the oil bottle and dripped it onto her soles.

The sticky liquid tickled, making her toes curl again.

After dripping oil on the other foot, I began massaging her entire foot with very light pressure.

Minimizing skin contact, I slowly stroked, sometimes moving my fingers lightly to make her feel as ticklish as possible.

“Huah…! Huh…♡”

A seductive moan escaped Adeline’s lips.

Her feet kept curling and uncurling from the moment the oil was applied.

She must’ve liked the slippery sensation and my touch.

After teasing her feet a bit more to heighten her excitement, I stopped the massage.

“…?”

Adeline’s head moved side to side.

Seemingly puzzled as to why I stopped.

Watching her, I asked,

“That’s the end of the trial. Would you like your legs done too?”

“Legs… Legs… Okay… Do it…”

I dimmed the room’s lights completely.

Leaving only a faint glow, so Adeline could hide her embarrassment as much as possible.

Then, placing my hands on her hips, I said,

“Lift your hips.”

“…Why my hips…?”

“I can’t pour oil over your pants. They need to come off.”

“W-What…?”

Patting her visibly flustered buttocks, I reassured her in a soft tone.

“The room’s too dark to see anything clearly. Don’t worry.”

Of course, that was a lie. No matter how dim the lights were, I could see everything.

“…..”

“You’ll feel really good. All your fatigue will melt away.”

“Euh…”

Hesitating for a moment under my temptation,

Swoosh…

She lifted her knees slightly, raising her hips.

Grinning, I grabbed the waistband of her pants and pulled them down.
