chapter 14
Magical massage is a kind of therapeutic technique that uses one’s magical power to heal the other person.
Anyone with magical power can do it, but to perform a proper massage, one must receive specialized knowledge and training.
I expected it to be difficult because I had done it a few times already.
The problem was…
“Heh… Huh… Ha… Huh…”
The tingling sensation building up in my body as I massaged.
As I began to feel out of breath and my body started trembling.
‘But the young master doesn’t have magical power…?’
Magical massage is originally a therapy performed between members of the same sex.
It is said that when performed between members of the opposite sex, it can lead to intense pleasure throughout the body during sexual intercourse, so it is not done unless it’s with someone you love.
I knew that much.
But there was only one reason I was giving magical massage to Diem.
Diam has no magic power.
It wasn’t just a passing magician saying, “This person has no magic power~” and ending it. They used a magic power measurement device used by the knights.
Through the proper procedures, it was revealed that he had no magic power.
It is true that I have a liking for him, but I hoped that my magic power, even just a little, would be helpful to Diam, who has no magic power.
I gave him a magic massage, not out of lewd thoughts, but out of the thought of wanting to help him.
“Why, why does the lord have magic power on his body?!”
Moreover, the combination of the magic power I inject and his magic power is so good.
The injected magic power entered Diam’s body without any loss, and the strong magic power was transformed into mine and returned to my body.
“Haa… Hahk… Haat…”
Even the resilient panties that were soft and fluffy from strenuous training began to soak with a sticky liquid, different from sweat.
Normally, I should have pressed the palm firmly, piercing the blood vessels and stimulating the muscles, but without realizing it, I enjoyed his senses by wearing the fingertip like lovers.
My mind became hazy with the intense male magic power that started to fill my body.
In my heart, I wanted to have a steamy relationship with him, regardless of whether he’s 15 years old or outdoors.
“I… I have to endure… Hahk…”
I couldn’t treat him like an innocent child who hasn’t even opened his eyes yet, as if I were raping him.
I forced myself to hold onto a mental thread that felt like it would snap with a click and exhaled a sticky breath.
I closed my eyes and focused on my breathing.
After taking a few deep breaths, the turmoil in my heart subsided.
“Haaat… Then, I will also massage the front. Could you lie on your back?”
I will finish the massage as quickly as possible and run to the bathroom to do it alone.
As I thought that and opened my eyes.
“Se… Sae… You… Chu…p…”
The moment I saw Diam’s magnificent thing reaching towards the sky.
Thud~
I lost my sanity.
Without realizing it, I grabbed both of Diam’s voluptuous thighs.
As I opened my mouth, the sticky saliva that couldn’t go past my chin dribbled down.
I stuck out my tongue, wanting to taste the magnificence.
“Oh my!! Ellie!!”
“Huh?!”
When I turned my head in the direction of the sound, Olivia was looking at me with sharp eyes, as if scolding me.
In his gaze.
In the sticky saliva running down my chin.
In the sticky liquid that had soaked my panties.
And finally, in Damien’s gaze, which conveyed embarrassment.
“Ah… Ah… Ah!! This crazy man!! To lose his mind to lust as a knight!!”
I realized reality.
Overwhelmed by shame, I unintentionally…
“I’m sorry!!!”
I left Damien behind and ran away.
***
I.
No, we had definitely undergone proper training.
And Ellie had given me a massage with pure intentions.
Up to this point, it was heartwarming.
“Agah!! Ellie!!”
Olivia shouted from the window (she’s Ellie’s guardian).
“I’m sorry!!!”
Ellie (my escort) staggered away screaming.
And there I lay on the dirt floor, dazed and in a state of arousal.
This scene, no matter how you looked at it.
“It seems like we were caught in an erotic massage!!”
A little later, we all gathered in one room.
Olivia sat on the bed with a dissatisfied expression and crossed her arms.
Ellie kneeled on the floor, bowing deeply.
And finally, I stood by the door, awkwardly trying to smile.
“Agah. Just wait outside for a moment.”
“…”
Like a student being dismissed as punishment during our school days, I was chased out into the hallway at her command.
Even though a significant incident had just occurred, it was still early in the morning, and the guest traffic was light, so the hallway was quiet.
I leaned against the wooden wall and stared blankly at the ceiling.
While carving one by one on the cracked stem, a voice came from inside.
“Eli, I don’t know what feelings you have towards Aga.
But Aga still doesn’t know much about the castle. What should we do if they suddenly find out?”
I understand very well…
“It’s unforgivable… Madam… I must have gone crazy for a moment…”
“It won’t end with a simple apology. What if Aga develops a wrong concept of the castle and starts wielding dangerous things recklessly?”
Dangerous… Isn’t that a bit too much?
“I’m sorry…”
“Sigh… Eli, are you a virgin?”
“M-madam?!”
“Please answer. Are you a virgin?”
The silence that followed the powerful question was broken by Eli’s trembling voice.
“I-I’m a virgin…”
“Thank goodness.”
What? What does that mean?!
What on earth is there to be thankful for?!
“Did you not have a boyfriend?”
“I-I was focused on my knight training… I didn’t have any romantic involvement…”
Ah… That’s a bit sad.
Even in a mixed-gender academy, where inexperienced love blooms, it’s strange for adult knights to not have any relationships.
“Good.”
So, what is good, Mother?!
“Eli.”
“Yes… Madam…”
“I hope Aga grows up well. The right understanding of relationships is also important.”
“Yes… Madam…”
“So, Eli, please be Aga’s first woman.”
“Yes… Ma… Lady?!”
Yes?
“What nonsense is this?!”
Confused by Olivia’s shocking statement, she leaned closer to the door to listen.
“Love doesn’t just happen as you wish!”
…or does it?
This isn’t the modern world.
No, even in the modern world, there are many people who date and marry despite not loving each other due to their own circumstances.
But what about this world?
There are social classes and nobility.
In this world, it’s natural for nobles to sleep with pretty commoner women who happen to pass by.
In this world, it’s natural for children to marry based on their parents’ decisions.
“No, that’s not it.”
No matter how much of a warrior mom Olivia is, Ellie is a knight belonging to the kingdom.
No one can force her.
“…I understand.”
Is that so?!?!
“My Lady’s intentions. I understand them clearly.”
What does that even mean?!
“I’ll assist you from the side. Please, Ellie.”
“Yes! My Lady!”
“But don’t engage in sex right away. Sexual education comes first. Do you understand? Take it slow. Step by step.”
“Y-yes, My Lady…”
This is chaotic, this is chaos…
After their conversation filled with secrets ended, Ellie led me to the room.
Olivia, who is smiling but doesn’t seem like she’s really smiling.
Ellie, who keeps avoiding my gaze.
In this awkward, too awkward atmosphere, I scratched my cheek and Olivia playfully bumped her hand against mine.
“Darling, aren’t you hungry?”
Under Olivia’s command, we finished a light meal and returned to the mercenary guild.
Even though Ellie didn’t say a word until we finished eating, once she stood in front of a notice board covered in papers, she transformed back into the person I knew.
“I want to try completing a mission today. Please choose a mission that you think is suitable for us.”
“I understand.”
“…”
Starting from monster extermination to escort, gathering, crafting, and delivering goods.
Would it be appropriate to call it a Errand Center? I searched for interesting types of missions.
[Obtain Guardram Fruits]
[Category: Gathering]
[Content: Deliver 10 Guardram Fruits]
[Reward: 5 Silver Coins]
“It’s just a gathering task, but the reward is in silver coins… Do I have to go deep into the forest?”
To go on a journey, you need money.
In our party’s case, we have a heroic mother supported by the nation, so there’s no problem, but…
Even so, we couldn’t rely on the country forever; we had to earn money.
And once the demon king is defeated, the use of heroes disappears.
From what I know, even in anime and novels, it’s common for heroes to either die or become beggars.
In the worst case, I might have to protect Olivia without the country’s support.
I nodded and tapped Ellie’s shoulder, who was also scanning the bulletin board like me.
“Have you found any good missions, Master?”
Ellie, looking at my paper, smiled and gently patted my head.
“To discover a high-reward mission within the safe category of gathering, that’s quite impressive.”
Oh, so this is the best mission to easily make some money?
“But without specialized knowledge, you can’t gather Guardram.”
That’s disappointing.
As I nodded and was about to look for another mission…
“However, if Master has the ability, it might be possible.”
“…?”
“Guardram has various uses. Its sweet taste makes it a delicacy for nobles, and when heated to a certain temperature, the liquid it produces has a beneficial effect on burns.”
“How much do they cost?”
“About 30 silver coins per fruit, but depending on the condition, they can go for more.”
“30 silver coins for one?! That’s really expensive.”
30 silver coins are roughly equivalent to 3,000 Korean won.
It may not seem like much, but in this world, it wouldn’t be surprising if it’s considered expensive.
Most vegetables and fruits are priced by weight, not by piece.
But thirty coins for one?
“Is the gathering place far from here?”
“There’s a colony by the sunny riverside.”
“It doesn’t seem that difficult once we get there, does it?”
In response to Olivia’s reasonable question, Ellie chuckled softly and continued down the path.
“Everyone thinks that before they dive into gathering in Gardam.”
After about an hour’s walk from the village, they arrived at the sun-drenched riverside with clear flowing water, just as Ellie had described.
Among ankle-high weeds, there were impressive patches of plants with round, plump fruits.
“Is that Gardam?”
“Yes, it is.”
Olivia held out her hand, ready to walk confidently towards their goal, but Ellie stopped her.
“Sweetie?”
No matter how you look at it, this is strange.
The village isn’t far, so it’s safe~
It’s out in the open, so it’s easy to gather~
And it’s popular, even though it’s a bit pricey~
But is there something toxic about it?
She looked at Ellie and smiled as they approached the Gardam colony.
With bare hands, no gloves.
Snip~
She plucked a fruit stem.
“Unfortunately, there’s no poison, young master.”
“…”
“But your habit of thinking deeply is excellent.”
With a smile, Ellie handed me the fruit.
The moment I grabbed the fruit, I could understand why it was expensive.
