"Ohhh♥ Haaah! Ugh—! N-no, not that! Stop pressing that spot♥"
Shin Sehee let out a suggestive moan.
Her entire body was drenched in sweat.
Trembling—
Her body writhed as if in a spasm.
"Does it feel good?"
"…I-it feels good! It, it feels good! It, it feels good, so! Stop already!"
"Hm? We're only halfway there? There's still about 10 minutes left. Let's endure a little longer."
At Jin Yuha's words, Shin Sehee's pupils trembled as if an earthquake had struck.
'H-he's going to do this for another ten minutes?'
I'm going to die.
I'm really going to die.
Even though there was nothing life-threatening about the situation, Shin Sehee felt terror.
'It's… too good. Yes, it's too good, but… this is…'
Seriously, I feel like I'm going to die from how good this is.
The scenario she had initially imagined was nothing more than her own delusion.
However, she didn't even have time to feel embarrassed about it. Because Jin Yuha's powerful hands had begun to mercilessly work over her body.
Having received various treatments over the years, she honestly dismissed it at first.
The idea of Jin Yuha's touch, a sort of reward, was why she had willingly accepted it. Just the fact that he thought of her in this way was touching enough.
At most, it would just be a little painful.
She thought he'd just give a quick rub and be done.
But to her surprise.
Everything she had experienced until now paled in comparison. If regular massages just felt like someone rubbing on her skin, Jin Yuha's massage felt like each cell, each muscle fiber, was being individually detached and thoroughly cleansed?
Her perpetually stiff shoulders, her chronically aching lower back, even the twisted bones that never straightened no matter how she tried to correct her posture.
It was practically like being reborn!
The only problem, however, was the pleasure.
Every time his hands worked over her body, intense, mind-numbing pleasure burst forth, making her head spin.
It was refreshing and pleasurable, so why would she refuse it?
Pleasure is good when it bursts forth once, but when it pours in excessively, like a storm raging, it's torture.
Shin Sehee learned this for the very first time.
It was like eating a delicious meal at a Michelin-starred restaurant, feeling completely satisfied and full,
but the meal just wouldn't end, and more food kept being forced into her mouth.
Jin Yuha didn't stop.
Slide—
Flinc—!
As his wet hand lightly swept down her back, Shin Sehee's waist arched and twisted.
"Ugh!"
'I-I'm really going to go crazy like this!!!'
Shin Sehee said in a pleading tone.
"Th-that's enough now, please stop…"
However, Jin Yuha seemed not to hear her voice and moved on to his next destination.
It was her feet.
The strangely erotic sensation of him lacing his fingers through her toes. Shin Sehee bit her lower lip tightly once more.
Embarrassment and shame, boundless ecstasy and pleasure, and the desperate wish for it to stop—these complex emotions swirled relentlessly within Shin Sehee.
"I-I'm not a frontline combatant who uses my body! There's no need to go this far—!"
"It's alright. It's alright. Leave it to me."
"It's not alright!! And my feet, my feet are embarrassing! Haaang—♥"
It was then.
Slam—!!
Suddenly, the door burst open.
Shin Sehee and Jin Yuha turned their heads towards the suddenly opened door.
"…Hm? Senior?"
"G-Gaeul Senior?"
Her eyebrows shot up in a V-shape. Her shoulders heaved roughly, a sneer on her face.
"I-I heard everything from outside! Juniors!! Wh-what kind of disgraceful act is this!!"
She abruptly thrust forward the spiral potato she held in one hand.
"A-as a senior, I, I absolutely cannot allow anything indecent—!"
"…"
"…"
And Im Gaeul, who had been slowly observing their appearance, tilted her head sideways.
"…Huh? What are you doing right now?"
Just as Im Gaeul was feeling bewildered.
"G-Gaeul Senior!!!"
Shin Sehee desperately called out to Im Gaeul.
"Oh, S-Sehee Junior?"
"Did you come because time was up!?"
"No, there's still some time left?"
"F-from now on! From now on, it's Gaeul Senior's turn! A-anyway, since there are two of you, you'll be short on time, right?"
"…Uh, w-well, that's true."
Im Gaeul still couldn't understand what was going on.
First, she had received an urgent call from Sophia, relayed it to all party members, and then rushed over immediately. It seemed she was the closest, as no one else had arrived yet.
She had considered waiting for the other party members in front of the building, but couldn't resist opening the door after hearing the suggestive moans from inside. And when she actually saw the two people drenched in sweat, she was furious.
'But what are they doing? It's definitely a bit strange… But then again, they're fully clothed. Feet?'
"Juniors, I need a quick explanation of the situation. What exactly were you doing?"
The answer to that question came from Jin Yuha.
"Ah, I was giving her a massage."
"…A massage?"
"Yes, Shin Sehee has always worked hard behind the scenes for the party. So I thought I'd help her relieve some fatigue."
"Ah… I see."
While relieved that it wasn't the strange scenario she had first imagined, Im Gaeul's gaze shifted to Shin Sehee, who was lying beneath Jin Yuha.
Haaah—
Haaah—
Shin Sehee, gasping roughly for breath with a melted expression.
Im Gaeul pressed her lips together.
A massage from Yuha Junior, done directly with his own hands.
How good must it have felt for her to have such a melted expression? Her usual haughty demeanor was gone. Clear drool trickled from her dazed, unfocused eyes and parted lips.
Looking at the situation, it seemed he had really gone all out. It was probably on a completely different level from a massage chair.
However, since she was with Sophia, she wouldn't be able to enjoy such a luxury.
'…I'm so jealous.'
Honestly, she was jealous.
Insanely jealous.
'Is working hard behind the scenes the only kind of hardship…? I, I worked hard too! I train every day, and recently, didn't we, huh? We even caught a demon together! Honestly, how much hardship have I gone through!!'
Burning with jealousy internally, Im Gaeul's expression turned sulky.
Just then, Shin Sehee's eyes sharpened for a moment. Even with her mind completely blank, she managed to catch Im Gaeul's expression!
"Senior…"
Shin Sehee called Im Gaeul in a weak voice.
"…What."
"…Perhaps, if it's alright with you, would you like to try it now, Senior?"
"…Huh? Me?"
"Yes, you said there's still time left anyway. Sophia hasn't arrived yet. And, it's really, truly refreshing. More than any massage I've ever had. A massage chair? You won't be able to go back to that now, I bet."
At that, Im Gaeul swallowed dryly.
Since it was her daily routine to eat snacks in the state-of-the-art massage chair after training, she knew well how good that massage chair felt.
She knew it well enough.
But to the extent that she wouldn't be able to go back to that massage chair?
"…I-is it that good?"
"Yes! You can trust me, as someone who has received countless aesthetic treatments!"
"…Ahem!"
Im Gaeul cleared her throat awkwardly in response. Then she subtly glanced at Jin Yuha.
"W-won't you be tired, Junior…? If you've been doing it this long, your hands must be tired."
"…Shin Sehee, I still have her foot massage left, but, well, I can do it later. Yes, come on over, Gaeul Senior."
"Th-then, perhaps I should…?"
Im Gaeul pretended to be reluctant and surrendered her body to Jin Yuha. And Shin Sehee immediately slipped away from the spot and sat at a table, beginning to drink tea.
Haaah—
"I'm saved…"
* * *
"Ugh!? …Aaaah—♥ J-Junior! W-wait! Just a moment! Just a moment—!!! Not there, not there, no!!! I-I'm going to lose my mind!!!"
Im Gaeul writhed and let out a moan.
And she thought the exact same thing Shin Sehee had just moments before.
'I-I'm going to die! Die! This is too good, I'm going to die from how good it is!!! Stop, stop! Please stop!!!'
It was then.
Slam—!
Once again, the door burst open.
And this time, the people who appeared were Kang Dohee, Lee Yuri, and Sophia—all three of them.
"…Senior?"
"Senior…?"
"…"
Moreover, unlike before when he had only been holding Shin Sehee's foot, Jin Yuha was now completely mounted on top of Im Gaeul, with his hands encircling her neck.
A position that anyone would undoubtedly misunderstand.
Kang Dohee and Lee Yuri's expressions turned chillingly cold as they looked down at Im Gaeul.
At their faces, Im Gaeul frantically shook her head with a flustered expression.
"N-no, no, no! No! It's a m-misunderstanding!!! A misunderstanding!!!! I, I didn't do it! Sehee Junior did!"
She cried out in such an aggrieved voice.
In response, Shin Sehee avoided eye contact and gulped down her tea.
Slurp—
* * *
The situation was only resolved after Im Gaeul, with tears welling in her eyes, led them outside and babbled on about the circumstances for a long time.
"…He just gave me a wholesome massage."
"Ugh, I wouldn't lie, you know. Juniors. Believe me!"
"…But even so, it's a bit much. Isn't it a senior's proper duty to prevent that Golden Retriever from doing such things? And then for you to rush in to receive it yourself, I wonder about that."
"…"
Even though Shin Sehee was entirely at fault, Im Gaeul ended up having to make excuses for Shin Sehee, simply because she herself was also in that position at the end.
Im Gaeul felt deeply wronged, as if she had become a scapegoat.
It was then.
"Hey, is everyone done talking? If you are, come on in!"
Jin Yuha poked his head out from inside the building and said.
"Oh, J-Junior, I'm coming now! We're all done!"
As if that was her chance, Im Gaeul quickly went inside the building, and Kang Dohee and Lee Yuri clicked their tongues in disapproval but headed inside the building anyway, as if they had no choice.
And finally, Sophia remained.
With a pale face, she bit her nails nervously.
'I-I'm doomed… What do I do? If Jin Yuha-nim even asks how I knew, I'm finished!'
She had already received permission to film with cameras, so that was fine, but wasn't eavesdropping truly in the realm of stalking?!
Recalling how disappointed Jin Yuha would be in her if he found out about this, her heart pounded wildly.
'Yes, somehow, somehow, I have to prevent the conversation from going in that direction!'
Sophia firmly resolved and nodded with a determined expression.

Clap—
Once all the party members had gathered inside the glass building.
As if to lighten the mood, Jin Yuha clapped his hands.
"Hmm, alright. Everyone's gathered right on time. I was going to call you all after Shin Sehee's turn anyway, so it worked out well that you're all here."
"…Huh?"
Shin Sehee replied, and the other party members tilted their heads in confusion.
Then Jin Yuha countered with a question.
"Hm? Weren't we going to split into pairs today to help Sophia integrate into the party anyway?"
As Jin Yuha asked.
Ah.
The party members, realizing how he had understood this rotation, bit their lips.
'This guy, he really has no tact…!'
However, no one could say no to that.
Except for one person, Im Gaeul.
"…Wait a minute, there's still an hour left until the festival!"
"Come on, Sophia already met Shin Sehee, Lee Yuri, and Kang Dohee during the first three hours, right?"
"…Y-yes, yes, that's right! We played like that!"
Sophia, who had been waiting for the opportune moment to blend in with the atmosphere, nodded with infinite positivity.
"Right? So the rest is 'why bother?' Sophia and I have been together since the mid-term evaluation, and Gaeul Senior and Sophia got close recently while working on a mission together."
"…Th-that's!"
"Or, was there some other reason?"
"Uh, no, there wasn't! I feel like I got close to all the party members today, and it was so nice!"
Im Gaeul's hands trembled.
She had thought Sophia, who had also lost out just like her, would take her side, but she just kept nodding at Jin Yuha's words.
When Im Gaeul sharply turned her head towards Sophia, she avoided eye contact and feigned innocence.
"Anyway, that's not important. There's still an hour left until the festival, right?"
As if this was the main point, Jin Yuha scanned the party members.
Then, in a light tone, as if it were nothing.
"Once the festival starts, there's probably going to be a monster wave here. And the festival will turn into a chaotic mess."
"…!?"
At his absurd words, all the party members' eyes widened, and their mouths fell open.
