Chapter 319

EP.319 The Rebellious Aiter #2

[It doesn’t seem particularly unusual.]

[I think the same.]

The words came from Dr. Jennifer Cash and Marcella.

After carefully examining Aiter with the two of them, I checked the time.

4 AM. If it were Silvia, who values a regular lifestyle, she would be asleep by now.

But today, she must be anxiously waiting for me.

I called Silvia, and before the ringtone even finished once, it cut off, and I smiled meaningfully.

-Yeah, how did it go?

Silvia’s voice, full of anticipation, came through the phone.

Is the Aiter consumption plan that good? How disappointing.

“It seems we can proceed for now. Come to that motel like last time.”

-That motel? The unmanned one?

“Yes. I plan to conduct the experiment there.”

-I’ll be right there. Should take about 20 minutes.

After hanging up, I took a portal near the motel.

Then, I booked a room and stood in front of the parking lot.

Couples coming and going to share love were visible.

There were also many people alone.

Those carrying black bags or looking around suspiciously.

Their sunken eyes clearly showed they were here for drugs.

If I tore open the ceiling of the room I booked now, syringes would probably pour out.

As I watched these various humans pass the time, I spotted Silvia’s figure in the distance and licked my lips.

High-waisted gray joggers covering up to just below the navel and pristine white sneakers.

They suit someone tall and slender, but on a woman like Silvia, they look stunning.

Here, a long-sleeve T-shirt from the same brand, a black fleece jacket, and a hat,

A face with light makeup and bright red lipstick…

It was the style of a pretty but somewhat intimidating older sister you’d see in a studio apartment neighborhood.

The kind of feisty older sister who captivates many men’s hearts.

But in front of me, she’s very obedient… This is turning me on.

“Jihyuk!”

Silvia called out to me in a somewhat loud voice and hurried over.

I put my arm around her shoulder and pulled her inside, scolding her.

“Who dresses like this and comes out?”

“Why are you making a fuss again…?”

“I like it. I want to do it here.”

“Are, are you crazy…? Stop saying such perverted things…!”

Silvia pushed me away as if she was fed up.

She’s actually in heat, so she’s acting like this. She doesn’t understand my feelings, how cruel.

I adjusted her tilted hat back to its original position and said.

“Let’s go in.”

“Did you book a room?”

“Yeah.”

“Give me the Device first. I want to wear it quickly. It feels so empty without it.”

She held out her hand like a cat asking for a treat.

I chuckled and shook my head.

“I’ll give it to you inside.”

“Give it to me now.”

“I said I’ll give it to you inside.”

Silvia bit her lower lip and glared at me.

She wants to argue, but seeing my firm expression, she just grumbles to herself. That expression is so enticing.

With a sly smile, I held out my hand in front of Silvia.

And then I said.

“Hand.”

“…..”

“Hand.”

Reluctantly, she placed her hand on mine…

Her outfit, expression, and attitude all came together to give me satisfaction.

As I gently scratched under her chin with my other hand, she flinched and hit me.

“Are you really crazy…! Why are you doing this…! Am I a dog?”

“I do this because I love you.”

“Don’t think you can get away with that. Does love mean you can treat me like this?”

“Who said I treated you like that? You’re being unfair.”

“…. Fine. We don’t have time for this. Let’s go in.”

“Apologize first.”

Silvia flared up.

“Shouldn’t I be the one receiving the apology first?”

“Why? Did my affectionate expression upset you?”

“That’s not it but…”

“Then it’s fine. Apologize.”

“No.”

This back-and-forth isn’t bad either.

Silvia’s nagging has a different refreshing taste compared to Adeline.

I pushed Silvia’s hat up and gently pressed my lips to her broad forehead.

Then, Silvia’s face turned red, and she pulled her hat down.

“Stop it…”

Her tone was full of aegyo.

The change in your sharp demeanor… I love it so much.

“Shall we go?”

“Go… Hurry up. Are you mad?”

I should stop teasing her. I might get hit.

I grabbed Silvia’s hand and took her to the room.

Then, as I was about to put the Device on her wrist, I hesitated.

What happened in the laboratory flashed before my eyes.

I’m confident it will assimilate well, but just in case… There’s still a lingering doubt.

“What’s wrong?”

Silvia’s question.

I shook my head and answered.

“Nothing. Your wrist is just pretty.”

“You’re really weird today… You know that?”

“Does it seem that way? You must be mistaken.”

“Your hand is trembling too… Are you nervous? Worried about what will happen when Aiter is used up?”

Your observation skills are unnecessarily good, but your brain isn’t.

From your perspective, you’d think that way.

Silently, I put the Device on Silvia’s wrist and took two steps back.

Then, with my arms crossed, I calmly checked Silvia’s condition.

“….?”

She tilted her head innocently.

First step, passed.

“Try transforming.”

“Starting already?”

“You were rushing like you had to pee earlier, and now you’re acting all calm?”

“Why do you talk like that… Haah… Fine.”

Silvia looked at me with pitiful eyes and tapped the Device twice.

Whoosh-!

A bright red light illuminated the bluish motel room.

In the middle of it, Silvia in a suit was smiling brightly.

She seems fine, but… you never know.

Hiding my sinister thoughts, I said.

“Today, we’ll only use 30%.”

“Okay. Do I just stay still?”

“You should.”

“Can’t you hold my hand?”

Why are you acting so girly since yesterday?

I chuckled and pretended to hold Silvia’s hand, subtly trying to touch her butt.

Slap!

Immediate retaliation.

Silvia clicked her tongue and scolded me.

“What are you doing…! If you want to consume Aiter energy…”

You shouldn’t do this?

What can I do… Our goals are fundamentally different.

“I want to touch you, what should I do?”

“Do it next time. I’ll really do it well.”

“How will you do it well? Suck it?”

Silvia’s cheeks turned red like in front of the motel.

From the Device, a faint “Uung…!” sound was heard, then stopped.

It charged and then stopped.

In disbelief, I slightly opened my mouth and asked.

“Did you just think what I said was a sexual act?”

“…..”

Silvia, having nothing to say, fidgeted with her mouth and sat on the bed.

You’re quite the pervert too. Unbelievable.

@@

The sky turned golden due to the sunrise.

It was an incredibly beautiful scene.

I’m glad I refused Jihyuk’s offer to take me.

Silvia, walking while looking at the sky, headed towards a small nearby cathedral.

It seemed a lot of snow had fallen overnight, as the roads were pure white.

The crunching sound with each step was delightful to the ears.

It’s not the first snow, but it’s not as beautiful as the snowfields on Adeline’s planet, yet it still makes my heart flutter.

Maybe it’s because Jihyuk is deeply rooted in my heart.

Before I knew it, Silvia arrived at the cathedral entrance. The priest, sweeping snow at the door, saw her and smiled brightly.

“Hello, Father.”

“Hello, Sister Silvia Reeves.”

“I’d like to offer a free prayer…”

“You may enter now.”

“Thank you.”

Silvia bowed to the priest, brushed the snow off the step, and went inside.

The heater wasn’t on, but it felt warm.

Perhaps it’s because it’s a cathedral blessed by God.

Silvia sat in the farthest corner.

It was always the corner. Not just in cathedrals but in other religious facilities too.

Why? Because it felt wrong to pray to Rosario in a place dedicated to another god.

‘I’m sorry, God. I’m really sorry.’

As usual, Silvia apologized to the Lord of the cathedral and closed her eyes in prayer.

Startled.

Then, a strange sensation caught her attention.

‘Huh?’

It felt like her regular heartbeat suddenly fluctuated.

An alien sensation swept through her chest, then disappeared.

There was also a slight twinge.

As if her heart was strained.

‘What is this…?’

It’s hard to describe precisely, but it felt like a slimy worm crawling all over her body.

It wasn’t painful.

Just a bit uncomfortable.

Since it wasn’t a big deal, Silvia soon focused back on her prayer.

After about an hour of motionless prayer, she stepped outside, and a man called out to her.

“Excuse me.”

It was a man she occasionally saw at the cathedral.

They exchanged nods.

He wasn’t there when she entered, so he must have come during her prayer.

Scratching his head awkwardly, he checked Silvia’s hand.

He was looking for a couple ring or wedding band.

After scanning, the man gathered courage and spoke.

“I’ve seen you coming and going… I wanted to talk to you today. Can I get your contact info?”

His voice was a pleasant baritone, and his style was decent.

The kind of guy who’d be popular as a church oppa.

But to Silvia, he was just a moth.

The kind of bug you find everywhere.

Many men approached her for her contact info.

She usually politely declined to avoid hurting them, but today she didn’t feel like it.

Was it annoyance? It felt right to firmly reject him.

“No.”

At Silvia’s stern reply, the man’s spirit deflated.

“S-sorry.”

Stammering an apology, he quickly fled the cathedral.

Silvia let out a hollow laugh and headed home.

Then, she deeply pondered her earlier behavior.

‘Was I too cold…?’

No, her actions were justified.

Why? Because many men persistently pursued her even after being rejected.

It was just preventive education before the overstepping puppies bit.

Comforted by this thought, Silvia took out her phone.

And she texted Jihyuk.

[Once the energy is all used up, I’ll do whatever you want. I love you, Jihyuk.]

A reply came immediately.

[That was just a joke. I love you too.]

It might be a joke to him, but not to her.

She would do anything for him.

Like when she went to the loan shark’s house and knocked him out.

[Show me your chest.]

Reading Jihyuk’s follow-up text, Silvia burst out laughing.

Since last time, it’s always chest… chest…

Is my small chest really that good? Ridiculous.

‘I can’t help it… really…’

Looking around, Silvia entered a quiet alley.

There, she took off her coat, hooked her fingers into the neck of her T-shirt, and pulled it down.

In that state, she took a selfie showing only her chin and upper body and sent it to Jihyuk.

[Happy?]

[Your panties too.]

Judging by his reaction, he seemed very satisfied.

[You saw them at the motel…]

[I want to see them again.]

[I’ll show you at home… It’s too embarrassing outside.]

[Then get here in 10 minutes, and send a video, not a photo.]

Jihyuk’s urgency felt good.

It made her feel loved.

[Okay.]

It was funny how she happily followed his commands, but it also felt natural.

Putting her phone away, Silvia headed home.

When she sent the photo earlier, should she have stuck out her tongue?

Would that have looked too vulgar?

Thinking all sorts of thoughts about Jihyuk, she looked up at the sky again.

The weather’s nice… My mood’s good… Love is deepening…

It felt like the start of a fantastic day.

If only that guy who tried to get my number wasn’t there, it would’ve been perfect. What a shame.
