EP.248 Jealousy #2
“You don’t know what Jihyuk did wrong, do you?”
I know. I know very well.
The sin of using Adelle’s hair tie on Silvia without permission, I know it well.
“I’m not sure…”
“Jihyuk, you’re such an idiot! I can’t understand! How could you use the hair tie meant only for me on her?”
“Uh… was that wrong…? I never said it was only for Adelle. And I just tied her hair…”
“Eek…! Jihyuk!”
Adelle, placing both hands on her hips, let out a sharp cry.
Startled, I shrugged my shoulders.
“Yes…?”
“Do you think I’m mad because you tied Silvia’s hair?”
“Isn’t that it?”
“That’s only part of it! What I’m most angry about is that you used your girlfriend’s thing on someone else!”
“But Silvia isn’t just anyone to Adelle, right?”
“That’s true… but did Jihyuk really think that while tying her hair? You probably didn’t think at all, right? Right?”
Actually, she was right.
It was just a ploy to make Silvia like me more.
When I gave her the hair tie, I did think of Adelle, but I thought Silvia would naturally let it go… but apparently not.
For me, it was like a windfall. An unexpected harvest.
Pretending to be completely defeated, I hung my head low.
“Yes… now that I hear it, it does seem wrong.”
“Seems wrong? You still don’t seem to have come to your senses!”
“No. I was wrong.”
“Haah…”
Adelle, shaking her head, plopped down on the massage chair.
Pressing the button to start the massage, she said,
“Since it’s your first mistake, I’ll let it slide, but if you do this again, you’ll be in big trouble!”
What will you do to punish me? With your body?
“Understood…”
Maybe now I can try putting malice into Adelle’s Aiter?
No, absolutely not. It’s still too early.
Adelle needs to dislike Silvia, even if just for a short moment.
Right now, Adelle is just mad that her boyfriend was kind to another girl and used her thing.
She might feel jealous, but there’s no resentment towards Silvia.
But these things pile up and explode. Let’s not rush.
Still not calmed down, Adelle alternated her gaze between me and the remote.
Quickly, I picked up the remote and turned on the TV.
Then, I cranked up the volume and asked,
“Should I leave…?”
“Stay right there!”
Even when you’re angry, you’re so cute… I love you, Adelle.
“Yes…”
As I was about to lie down on the sofa, Adelle shot me a glare.
It felt like she was saying, “How dare you try to get comfortable?”
Today, my concept was the clueless bear.
Usually kind and thoughtful, but unfamiliar with such situations… I wanted to give Adelle the feeling that if she let her guard down, things could go wrong, and I succeeded.
Sitting still on the edge of the sofa, as Adelle’s crumpled face began to relax, I pursed my lips.
Just now, she was fuming, but now, leaning back in the massage chair, her expression was so relaxed it was hilarious.
Barely holding back my laughter, I got up, and Adelle’s eyes widened.
“I told you to stay still!”
I walked over to the vibrating massage chair and crouched down.
Then, I gave Adelle a bitter smile.
“I was really wrong. So please don’t be mad.”
“…Is this something not to be mad about…?”
Adelle, lowering her voice.
She was arguing, but her eyes were full of guilt towards me.
“Of course, it’s something to be mad about. But… when Adelle gets mad, it hurts my heart so much…”
I lowered my sad eyes.
Adelle, seeing me like this, immediately got off the massage chair.
Then, she brought my face to her chest and hugged me like a child.
“I’m sorry, Jihyuk… I got too excited… Don’t cry…”
Who’s crying?
I’m too busy feeling your soft chest.
I want to touch it right now, but if I do, you’ll call me perverted.
“I got mad because I love Jihyuk so much. I hope you understand…”
I know. I know everything.
How could I not understand your feelings?
I lowered my head and buried my face in Adelle’s stomach.
It’s so comfortable. Sleepiness is naturally creeping in.
For a long time, I soothed my mind and body in Adelle’s embrace.
Actually, there was nothing to soothe, but I just did it.
**
Naturally reconciling with Adelle, I showed her the frame of the hammer she would use.
A very large size with a long handle and striking surfaces on both sides.
A design so intimidating that a powerhouse like Adelle could smash a monster’s head with it.
And of course, Adelle loved the battle hammer I showed her.
“It’s the perfect weapon for me!”
“Right?”
“Yes! Are you going to make it now?”
“I have to. I paused because of Silvia’s Device, but now I’m going to start in earnest.”
Adelle will probably vow to protect the Earth with this.
But no. The ones she’ll swing the hammer at will be humans, Rosario, and that woman’s believers.
If traitorous demons appear like this time, I’ll leave their disposal to her too.
With a benevolent smile, I continued.
“How much Aiter energy did you use?”
“Ah, in Russia?”
“Yes.”
“I used 4 percent.”
Not much consumption.
That made sense. Except for one D-class demon that died in one hit, the rest were all F-class.
The Russian army handled it well. Annoying.
But I still need to recharge. Right?
I pulled Adelle’s arm and sat her on my lap.
Then, I kissed her lips several times and slipped my hand inside her cardigan.
Whoosh-!
The sound of the ventilation fan spinning and the Device’s charging sound.
Hearing that, Adelle panicked and squirmed.
Like a puppy trying to escape its owner’s embrace.
“J-Jihyuk…! You made a big mistake today…?”
“I know. That’s why I’m asking for forgiveness…”
“Forgiveness in this way…? Take your hand off…!”
“Should I stop kissing too?”
“T-that’s okay… Hmph…!”
Was it because my tongue slipped into her parted lips?
Adelle’s eyes became hazy, then slowly closed.
While my tongue explored her mouth, I remembered the pain below.
As long as I don’t finish inside, it should be fine, but I’m scared of Divine Power with uncertain information.
Let’s hold back until I can put malice in.
Stopping the kiss and pulling away, I cut the string of saliva connecting our lips with my tongue and said,
“I’ll walk you back. Let’s go.”
“…..”
Adelle looked at me with a somewhat regretful expression.
I asked,
“Why? Do you want to do more?”
“N-no…?”
“Then?”
“Today… let’s do Bible study… We haven’t done it in a while…”
Bible study out of nowhere?
I really don’t want to, but with the sins I’ve committed, it’s hard to refuse.
I’ll take the chance to learn more about Rosario and just go along with it today.
“Alright.”
**
That dawn.
As I was about to head home, Silvia came over, and I opened my eyes wide.
“Silvia? What brings you here at this hour?”
Wearing a black windbreaker and training pants, she had her hat pulled down low.
It looked like she came secretly.
Tilting her head slightly, she answered.
“…I came to see you.”
“Me? How did you know I was here…”
“I thought you’d be here. Do you have time?”
“Yes. Perfect timing. I have something to show you… Come here.”
Like a child seeing a trendy toy, I opened my eyes wide and pulled Silvia’s wrist to the computer.
Then, I showed her the suit design she would wear.
“How is it?”
A design similar to Sehwa and Yuria’s suits, only different in color.
Silvia frowned as soon as she saw it.
“I really hate it.”
“Yes…?”
“I love moving dynamically. And you want me to wear that… a leotard and skirt? It’ll show everything if I move. I’ll never wear it.”
An unexpected reaction. Who would have thought she’d hate Edward’s masterpiece?
Well, the leotard is one thing.
But you’re a Magical Girl! A skirt is a must for a Magical Girl!
“Who’s going to see Silvia’s movements?”
“Still, I hate it. Change it to pants.”
Pants… Well, Silvia is too mature to be a Magical Girl.
I’ll change it to a thief-like design. I’ll put my heart into making it for you.
A suit you’ll never wear if you fall, but I feel really sorry for you, so I’ll make it special.
A very sexy bodysuit, mixed with a uniform feel.
“Yes, well… I’ll do that.”
“Contact me as soon as the draft is ready.”
“Alright.”
“Promise. You have to. Got it?”
Repeating it like that, she must be really anxious.
“I got it. But why did you come?”
“…..”
Silvia looked at me with a complicated expression for a moment, then tightly closed her eyes.
Then, she said in a confident voice,
“Let’s recharge Aiter with me.”
I knew it.
Cheering inwardly, I furrowed my brows and looked at Silvia.
“Aiter… recharge…?”
“Yeah. As you know, I need to fill up my Aiter energy right now. But I have no one to meet. You’re the only one I can do sexual acts with.”
“Ah…”
She’s trying to speak calmly, but her voice is trembling.
Look at that noble desire to save humanity, throwing away pride.
How could I refuse?
But I need to play hard to get a little.
The recharge shouldn’t be by mutual agreement, but by Silvia’s coercion, making it semi-forced.
“Silvia, I’m sorry, but…”
“Like at the Grand Canyon, just close your eyes and do it once.”
Once? Don’t lie!
You’ll keep recharging with me using the excuse of no men!
“Ha… this is driving me crazy…”
“You’re partly to blame too. I used up almost all my energy trying to save you at the Grand Canyon.”
“No… last time you told me not to worry…”
“That’s how urgent it is. Think of it as for the greater good. I’ll tell Adelle… I’ll tell her.”
First act, then report? And you’ll tell her yourself? Can you really do that?
If Silvia says, “You touched me willingly when we went camping at the Grand Canyon!”, I’ll have no defense.
But she doesn’t seem to be thinking of that.
Even if she does, I’ve already prepared an escape route, but it’s better to keep quiet.
Leaning against the wall, muttering “greater good,” I pondered for a while, then reluctantly nodded.
“How are you going to do it…?”
