His Grace
“Ugh, uhh… Uhh♥”
Wilhelmina’s moans echoed in my ear.
Tears welled up in her eyes.
“Ah, it huuuurts… Kim Deok-Sung… Uugh…”
“Should I stop?”
“N-No… I don’t want to… I-I like it… Gye So-ok…”
Wilhelmina shook her head at my words.
I continued to take advantage of her.
The sight of Wilhelmina temporarily reverting to her early twenties due to the medication was a look not even seen in the original work.
Only I could see this.
Matured, she looked more charming, or to put it bluntly, closer to my taste.
That’s why I kept going, not holding back a single part of her body from head to toe.
“Ugh…”
Wilhelmina’s low moans continued to resonate.
She tried hard to suppress her sounds, but it was futile in front of me.
Besides, unlike ordinary people like Yoo Se-Ra, Wilhelmina surpassed the physical abilities of everyday folks as a superhuman.
Now that she was in a mature form, I could be rough without worry.
“Ugh… Just a little gentler… Aah♥”
Even after that, I continued to enjoy myself with Wilhelmina on the bed.
By the time we wrapped up round twelve…
“L-Let’s stop now… T-The medication… It’ll end soon…”
Hearing her say the effects were almost over, I had no choice but to let her go.
After everything was done…
She got her clothes on in a hurry.
“Beast… Pervert… Degenerate…”
Wilhelmina pouted as she looked over here.
Still seeming to have some effects left, the sight of her trying to fix her disheveled adult clothes while gazing at me with those golden eyes was quite cute.
“Really? So it looks like Wilhelmina didn’t enjoy it with me. Sorry. Then next time…”
“…I didn’t say I didn’t like it…”
When I teased her, Wilhelmina puffed her cheeks even more.
Her face turned bright red.
“…I-I liked it…”
Wilhelmina murmured in a small voice, lips quivering.
I looked at her and said, “If you liked it, shall we do it again next time?”
At my words, Wilhelmina silently nodded.
She nodded her head.
“······I, now······. Han Seo-Jin······. must be awake······. In the, annex······. Go······. Hmph······. Pervert······. Kim Deok-Sung······.”
Wilhelmina pouted her lips and poked my back with her finger.
It was clearly a signal to leave.
“Got it.”
I patted Wilhelmina’s head.
“Ugh······.”
Wilhelmina shuddered at my touch.
I spoke to her.
“Thank you for helping Han Seo-Jin.”
Research on the dual-gate and even the resurrection project for her brother Damian.
She was at the center of two major projects.
Honestly, she must be very busy, and yet she came all the way to Korea to heal not me but Han Seo-Jin.
I should definitely be grateful for that.
“Ugh······.”
At my words, Wilhelmina nodded and then muttered as she looked down.
“······Hurry up······. Pervert······. Kim Deok-Sung······.”
She poked my back again.
There was no helping it.
I waved goodbye to her one last time and left the room where Wilhelmina was staying.
Now it was time to see Han Seo-Jin.
*
Thud.
After Kim Deok-Sung left, the door to the room closed.
In the room left in disarray due to the aftermath of their relationship, Wilhelmina’s view was revealed.
“Ugh······.”
Wilhelmina covered her hot, flushed face with her hands.
Thump, thump.
Her heart continued to race.
Thoughts of her recent encounter with Kim Deok-Sung rushed into her mind.
The intense moments they shared in bed.
The moment her long-held purity was lost was rougher, more painful, and yet oddly pleasant than she had imagined.
“Idiot······.”
Wilhelmina muttered in a low voice.
She placed her hand on her chest.
At that moment, she felt her heartbeat under her hand.
Zap.
Ivory magic encased Wilhelmina’s body.
With it, her adult form returned to its original state.
“······.”
Wilhelmina’s gaze turned toward the mirror.
There stood a beautiful girl with ivory hair and golden eyes, her face flushed.
Wilhelmina closed her eyes.
Unlike three years ago, she now understood.
The fluttering feelings she experienced upon meeting him, the identity of her racing heart.
It was love.
She, Wilhelmina Heisenberg, was in love with Kim Deok-Sung.
When it started, she didn’t even know herself.
Was it when he uncovered the truth? Or when he vowed to help her brother’s resurrection? Or when he defeated his own enemy, the Messiah, for her sake?
But one thing was clear.
“······I like him······.”
As she let those words slip from her lips, Wilhelmina grinned.
In front of him, she had been too shy to say it properly, but now that he wasn’t around, she could say it all she wanted.
“I like you······. I like you······. Kim Deok-Sung······. I like you······.”
With her constant declarations of affection, a smile spread across Wilhelmina’s face.
A delightful thrill filled her heart.
Thump, thump.
Thump, thump.
The sound of her heartbeat followed her.
*
Kim Deok-Sung’s Residence.
The annex of a traditional Hanok.
Though it was called an annex, the place resembled a grand old Hanok that the noble class of the Joseon era would have lived in.
Inside, it had been completely transformed into a modern Hanok, and Han Seo-Jin opened her eyes.
“······.”
Her hazy vision became clear.
Before her eyes was the scenery of the annex’s interior.
Traditional ceramics, folding screens, calligraphy, and ink paintings created by intangible cultural heritage artisans filled her sight.
Alongside that, she felt her back was warm.
The ondol heating was on.
Rustle.
Han Seo-Jin pushed aside the silk blanket and sat up halfway.
“Ah······.”
A low exclamation escaped her lips.
The inexplicable phantom pains and discomforts that had occasionally plagued her abdomen had completely disappeared.
Han Seo-Jin instinctively realized.
Her injuries were fully healed.
Now she too······ could have a child.
“······I too······.”
For her beloved master and Messiah, Kim Deok-Sung, Han Seo-Jin had postponed her infertility treatment.
Although Kim Deok-Sung declared he had no concubines, deep down she still subconsciously believed she was in a lower position than the other heroines, so she thought it unnecessary to undergo treatment.
Her own happiness wasn’t important.
What she desired was solely Kim Deok-Sung’s happiness.
Thus, she didn’t respond to Kim Deok-Sung’s proposal.
She didn’t want him to waste his energy on trivial things like her happiness.
However, her friend Yoo Se-Ra and that person had graciously granted her the privilege of infertility treatment, even though she was merely a concubine.
Thump.
Han Seo-Jin’s heart raced.
I have finally become a proper woman.
Now I too can bear his seed.
The thought made her heart flutter.
“Mr. Kim Deok-Sung······.”
Han Seo-Jin called his name softly.
Drip.
A single tear rolled down her eye.
After the injury that day, she had thought she might have to give up her life as a woman.
Therefore, she believed she wasn’t worthy of being his wife.
Just being his mistress, a one-night companion, felt like an immense honor.
Yet he had denied her status as a concubine three years ago and still cared for her insignificant circumstances.
What a gracious, benevolent favor this was!
Thump.
Han Seo-Jin’s heart raced.
He had cured her infertility.
That means…
“Ah, does this mean it’s okay for me to have a child······?”
Could it really mean she was allowed to bear his seed?
Han Seo-Jin’s face turned bright red.
The image of her heavily pregnant self popped into her mind.
And she also imagined a child resembling them walking hand in hand outside for a stroll.
To think that someone like her, merely a mistress and a one-night companion, would receive the honor of bearing his child.
Han Seo-Jin couldn’t believe it.
This couldn’t be real.
Han Seo-Jin shook her head.
This was merely a kindness from him, who took pity on her.
This is just the grace of that person who looked down on herself.
There is no deeper meaning.
She was very aware of her position.
Within Kim Deok-Sung’s harem, she was merely a government official, nothing more, nothing less.
Thinking this, Han Seo-Jin changed into her usual work outfit, a suit hanging on the hanger, and put on black stockings.
Han Seo-Jin, dressed like a typical career woman, returned to her expressionless face.
The sweet fantasy was now over.
It was time to go to work.
After Kim Deok-Sung’s graduation, from managing his residence to coordinating work with the Global Hero Association and liaising with foreign hero associations.
She had a mountain of administrative tasks piled up related to her role assisting Messiah Kim Deok-Sung.
The past two days, the rest disguised as treatment felt like a luxury to her now.
Just then, when Han Seo-Jin decided to go to work…
Creak.
The sliding door of the love house opened as someone entered.
*
I stepped into the hanok annex from the main building and reached the doorway of the love house where Han Seo-Jin was.
Before meeting her, I took a deep breath and opened the door.
With the sound of the sliding door opening, I was able to face her.
A neatly styled gray bob, a gray suit and skirt with no difference from before the treatment, and the cool demeanor of a career woman.
It was Han Seo-Jin.
“Mr. Kim Deok-Sung?”
Han Seo-Jin called me.
Clack.
I shut the sliding door and entered the love house.
“What’s the matter?”
“Billed with treatment, Wilhelmina said she’s here to check on your condition.”
I approached Han Seo-Jin and examined her complexion.
She seemed to have a bit more color than before.
At this rate, it looked like she was completely healed, just like Wilhelmina said.
“My body is perfectly fine. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Kim Deok-Sung.”
Han Seo-Jin deeply bowed to me.
She would say she’s fine even if she wasn’t, so at least right now, she really seemed to be in good shape.
“Then I will take my leave… I need to handle my overdue tasks.”
Han Seo-Jin said while preparing to leave.
What?
She’s leaving?
She just got kicked out while heating things up with Wilhelmina, and now she’s abandoning me?
That’s not happening.
Grab.
I held onto Han Seo-Jin’s wrist.
“Mr. Kim Deok-Sung?”
“…Let’s check on the treatment results.”
Whoosh.
Without hesitation, I ripped her stockings.
As the black stockings tore, her fair skin was revealed.
Han Seo-Jin’s eyes trembled upon seeing that.
Her face turned red.
“If that’s what Mr. Kim Deok-Sung desires… please use my body as much as you want until you get bored.”
She said in her usual businesslike but slightly trembling voice.
Her face was still expressionless, yet the blush added to my excitement.
“Great.”
I smiled at her words and took her from behind.
“…Ugh…!!”
Inside the love house.
A hot gust of wind and pleasure enveloped both me and Han Seo-Jin.
