Chapter 60: A Wild Change (3)
-Knock, knock, knock
Luss knocked on the door and waited for a mont.
Soon, a woman ca out to greet her.
“Who is... Ah. It’s you. You’re a mber of Starchis’ party... Luss, right?”
“...Yes, that’s right. I’m Luss.”
Her mory was impressive.
Luss had only t this woman once at Starchis’ bedside.
They hadn’t even exchanged nas, and Stion had only called her na once.
Yet, Seira, the manager of the ‘Aide’ party, hadn’t forgotten it.
“Nice to et you. What brings you here today?”
“Is Stion here?”
“Stion is busy right now. You should have made an appointnt in advance-”
“-Seira, don’t be so strict.”
A leisurely voice flowed from inside the building.
And in response to that voice, a friendly laugh was heard.
Seira sighed and held her forehead.
“Stion, I’m doing this for your reputation..! It doesn’t look good to seem so free. Where in the world is there an A-rank party leader that anyone can et right away...?”
“Right here. Oof.”
The sound of him approaching the door from inside the building was heard.
Soon, he appeared with ssy hair and a scruffy beard.
“It’s enough to chase away strangers whose faces we don’t know. She’s a mber of Starchis’ party.”
Stion patted Seira’s shoulder to calm her down.
Then he looked at the guest who had co to see him.
“So. Why are you here?”
At his question, Luss recalled the previous night.
Starchis had thanked her for believing in him and following him, and for helping him achieve his dream.
It was embarrassing.
She had never been half-hearted, but she hadn’t worked hard enough to deserve his thanks either.
She just wanted him.
She wasn’t soone worthy of the grand reasons he attached to praise her.
She didn’t think she had helped Starchis.
Even without her, he would have reached his current position.
...That was unacceptable.
Luss wanted to be soone irreplaceable.
She wanted to hear, “It has to be you.”
She never wanted to see him hurt again.
Luss bowed her head deeply and said,
“...Stion. Please teach how to fight.”
“...I wondered what you were saying, coming here so early... I’m sorry, Luss, but Stion isn’t that free-”
Seira’s words were cut off.
Stion raised his hand to stop her.
He gestured with his head towards the inside of the base, signaling to continue the conversation inside.
Luss naturally followed him into the base.
The Aide party consisted of seven mbers, including the manager.
Three of them were sitting inside the base.
The other two were nowhere to be seen.
“Sit in the front.”
Stion pointed to a chair in front of the round table.
Luss naturally did as he said.
Luss sat down, and as Stion took a seat opposite her, the rest of the party mbers gathered around and filled the remaining seats.
Suddenly, Luss found herself surrounded by Aide party mbers.
Luss, a burly bald man, a sleek-looking man, Stion, a sharp-looking woman, and Seira were seated in a circle.
“Pretty, aren’t you?”
The sharp-looking woman comnted to Luss.
The pressure from all directions was intense.
Before Luss could feel flustered, Stion spoke up.
“One thing before we start.”
Stion raised one finger.
“Don’t think about lying to during this conversation.”
“...Yes.”
“It would be best not to test that. In return, I’ll be honest too.”
Luss nodded.
Stion also slightly pushed his cheek with his tongue and nodded.
Stion was different from the impression Starchis had given.
Starchis said there was no one kinder and gentler, but to Luss, he seed frightening and cold.
Maybe it felt even more so knowing he was the leader of an A-rank party.
Stion, setting the mood, glanced subtly at Seira.
Seira also looked back at Stion with serious eyes.
“...”
“...”
“...”
“...?”
“...Seira, why don’t you bring so tea?”
“Oh, look at .”
Seira jumped up and ran off sowhere.
The remaining Aide party mbers chuckled.
Stion took a deep breath and crossed his legs.
“...So, you want to teach you how to fight?”
“Wow, that’s bold.”
The bald man beside her said in a deep voice.
With his massive muscles and tanned skin, he looked like soone who would stand on the front lines.
Stion continued speaking to Luss.
“Well, I understand. You must have felt sothing after seeing my brother.”
Luss shivered. He had hit the nail on the head.
“...I’m sorry...”
“Don’t apologize. It was an accident, right? Or, is there sothing else you feel guilty about?”
She recalled the mont she had fallen.
She clenched her fists in self-reproach.
“...If you’re worried about falling, I already know. Don’t bla yourself for that. Even I wouldn’t have predicted the scroll.”
Stion briefly thought back to when he lost all his party mbers during an S-rank mission.
He didn’t want to be too harsh on her as soone who had also lost teammates.
Stion ran a hand through his hair and said,
“Training you will make my brother safer, so I have no reason to refuse.”
“Why don’t you have a reason to refuse, Stion? We’re busy people.”
The sleek-looking man next to the bald man asked.
“Life cos first. If it’s for my brother’s safety, everything else can wait.”
“It’s a waste of ti unless you’re sure it will be effective.”
“Whether it’s a waste of ti or not, I should do everything I can. I don’t want to regret it later.”
Stion answered the man beside him while staring intently at Luss.
“If you want to follow my brother, there’s no reason I can’t reach out a hand. Helping you is ultimately for my brother’s sake.”
Stion leaned forward, clasped his hands, and rested his chin on them.
“...There’s enough justification. If you can keep my brother safe, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do.”
Stion recalled all the countless complaints and worries he had heard from his younger brother.
He thought about his brother, who must have suffered within those concerns.
He considered the days his 9-year-younger brother endured among these party mbers, determined to follow in his footsteps.
How hard must it have been for the honest Starchis to resort to such outlandish lies?
Among those stories, certain nas always ca up: Luss, Vienna, and Lily.
“But to be honest...”
As Stion thought about those tis, his expression gradually hardened.
Call it childish if you will.
He wanted to stay detached from Starchis’ life, but his love for his brother made that difficult.
He wanted to let out so of the anger he had built up.
A sense of intimidation flowed through his body.
“..?”
As the atmosphere changed, the Aide party mbers looked at him.
Stion continued speaking, regardless of their gazes.
“I just don’t like you, so I don’t want to do it.”

-Knock, knock, knock
It was early morning.
“Are you okay, Rose?”
Hian knocked on Rose’s door and asked.
-“I-I’m fine. Just leave alone.”
“At least drink so water. It’s the best thing for a hangover.”
-“I’m drinking plenty. Please go away.”
Hian sighed helplessly at the response.
The previous night, despite the late hour, Rose hadn’t co ho, leaving Hian anxiously pacing by the front door.
When Rose finally returned, she was a ss.
Her face was flushed red from drinking, and she couldn’t even walk properly.
She had to be supported by the guards.
Support was an understatent; she was practically being dragged.
Given the current situation, he decided to let it slide for now,
but he intended to question her thoroughly about the incident once she ca to her senses.
.
.
.
.
-Slap slap slap slap slap!
The sound of sothing wet and heavy hitting echoed from under the blanket.
“Huuuhaa..! Ha...!! Hup!!”
-Flash!
The blanket was suddenly thrown into the air.
-Phew! Phew!
Rose’s hips trembled and lifted off the bed.
Her porcelain-like legs tensed and straightened.
But her arms were weak, and her head remained buried in the bed.
Beneath her hips, so kind of liquid flowed down her smooth legs.
She felt the orgasm ripple through her entire body.
And then, flop.
Once the wave of pleasure passed, she collapsed into a cat-like posture on the bed.
She hadn’t been able to sleep at all since the previous day.
The words “bitch” from Starchis haunted her every ti she tried to drift off, jolting her awake.
Those words seed to lt her brain.
Ever since hearing those words, her legs hadn’t regained their strength whenever she lay down on the bed.
“Ha...ha...Starchis...”
Her heart had pounded when reading it in a book, but hearing those words from a man she liked was indescribable.
Her lower body kept getting wet, and that place tingled.
His voice kept echoing in her head.
Lying in bed, tornted and unable to sleep for so long was painful. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t fall asleep, and he kept popping into her mind.
In the end, she experienced her first masturbation session early in the morning.
It was sothing she had only read about.
She didn’t have precise knowledge about the act itself, but she knew it was ant to calm her heated body in such a situation.
What started at dawn continued until now. The bed sheets were soaked with sweat, saliva, and secretions.
Yet her body wouldn’t cool down and kept heating up.
The more exhausted she beca, the more intense the pleasure returned.
She couldn’t stop her body.
Even right after feeling a sharp pleasure, her hips continued to move up and down lewdly on their own.
The bed creaked quietly in response.
It was as if her body instinctively knew how to move.
Rose peeked her face out from under the blanket to look at the window.
It was already bright outside. She realized just how long she had been at it.
Still, she ducked her head back under the blanket.
Just once... just one more ti, she decided.
She repeated the promise she had made dozens of tis already.
Before her hand reached her secret place, she thought of a man.
‘What would Starchis think if he saw like this right now?’
Thinking of his disappointnt and disgust pained her heart.
Sohow, without her realizing it, he had moved beyond re affection and settled deep in her heart.
Simultaneously, she thought...
‘Would he call a bitch again?’
“Haaa...!”
Her untouched womanhood throbbed.
Once again, she couldn’t resist.
“No, no. This... this is really the last ti...”
She spoke to her own womanhood as if trying to reason with it.
But it was a promise she couldn’t keep.
Thus, her first experience with masturbation continued until she was utterly exhausted and collapsed.
