Chapter 4 : This, this lewd woman…!

Lunch time is almost over.

When I came to my senses, I realized I was being held by Jena and was being made to “wipe my mouth with a handkerchief.”

“Ugh. You ate with all that on your face. Was it really that good?”

“Yeah… I think you were right.”

“…You think I was right? Hmph.”

Jena covered her mouth slightly with her hand.

“…?”

Stand up straight, Song Jena.

What is she doing now?

When her hand lowered, a subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

It was a smile I had never seen before.

I’ve only known her for today…

Anyway, I was once again enchanted by her playful smile.

My imagination began to run wild.

What if the two of us got married…

“Mom. I’m going to bring a daughter-in-law soon…”

Huh…

“I don’t have a mom.”

Ah, right. Yeah, yeah.

It’s fine. I’m used to it.

I don’t have a mom, and I don’t have a dad.

Wait, but…

“Are you teasing me? You just mimicked what I said.”

“You… you!”

“…Isn’t it a bit too late to realize that?”

“Eek!”

“Alright, sorry. I’m sorry.”

I can’t take it.

You’ve been demoted back to being a commoner.

From now on, you need to learn to respect your husband.

Swipe swipe—

Even while I was having those thoughts, Jena’s handkerchief was carefully wiping my mouth.

A handkerchief in this day and age…

And it came from Jena’s school uniform pocket.

Wait.

Wait, wait.

It came from her chest pocket?

So my mouth and Jena’s… chest…!

“Oh. Ha-yul? Huh?!”

“Commoner… hiccup…”

“Hey, you! You’re bleeding from your nose! Aah!”

Hhhhhh!

Jena’s chest… with my mouth…!!

For someone like me, who’s a virgin, it was way too much of a stimulus.

Honestly, I didn’t expect it to make me nosebleed.

“Alright, anyone with a question? If not, we’ll move on.”

Before I knew it, it was the last class time.

I was still sitting next to Jena.

“Hehe…”

I looked at my textbook and then glanced at the teacher.

Since it was senior year material, I could understand it somewhat.

So what do I need to do now?

I look at Jena.

Ah, this is happiness.

I can always review later.

“…The reversal of the relationship is key…”

‘I wonder if she heard me say “commoner” earlier?’

I felt a bit embarrassed when I thought about it while keeping my focus.

I wondered if she would think it was strange since I suddenly talked about being a commoner.

Scratch scratch—

I hear the sound of a sharpener.

She seems to be concentrating on class.

I sneak a glance at her as she turns the pages one by one, getting absorbed in it.

“Hehe…”

I want to thank the gods who might be out there somewhere.

Isn’t life just too easy?

Sure, there’s the small inconvenience of changing into a girl, but I get to walk around with this cute girl.

“In this situation, the narrator… puts the other person in the palm of their hand…”

‘My body’s a girl now. Hmm. But if I think of myself as a guy… No, that’s not it.’

I think I’ve read something like this in a philosophy book.

Heh. Did I really think my destiny would change just because I switched genders, you foolish world?

I’m the man who will become Song Jena’s husband.

“Mm-mmm.”

“…?”

I feel a gaze filled with curiosity.

Did I stare too long?

I hurriedly turned my gaze forward.

It’s not because I ran away from being embarrassed.

“…You think I was mistaken… and blindly believed…?”

How could you understand the will of the great husband?

Ah, I need to get closer to her so I can ruffle her hair.

How much time has passed?

I check my phone under the desk.

“Hehe…”

It’s almost time…

Ding dong dang dong.

“Alright, let’s finish this last part, okay?”

“Ah, aww! This is the last one!”

“I’ll listen carefully tomorrow! Really really! Really really really!”

“Sigh… Alright. Fine. Class President, tell them to start from here tomorrow.”

“Okay!”

The loud girls made my ears feel like they were ringing.

The teacher, who had been resting her forehead on her hand for a moment, then walked out the front door without any hesitation.

Anyway, school is over for today.

By the way, this world’s school is quite reasonable.

A school that really does “free” evening study sessions, such a sensible school!

That means…

“Freedom…!”

I grab my bag and sling it over my shoulder.

It’s light since there’s not much in it.

“Ha-yul? Aren’t you going to evening study?”

“Yeah… hehe… I’m more comfortable studying at home!”

Jena starts a conversation with me.

Hah, is she going to confess to me now?

I… stop liking me, Jena.

“Heh… I don’t want to study tonight either. Let’s go together.”

“Oh. Cool!”

As expected. She was supposed to go to evening study.

I made this diligent girl not study.

I seduced her! I can dominate Jena!

I felt it.

I’ve felt it.

Now’s the time.

‘Revenge for lunchtime…!’

As soon as I stepped out of the school gate, I spoke.

“…This time, you go ahead, are you excited?”

“Huh? Do I have to…?”

You should try walking on an unfamiliar path while depending on someone else.

I imagined Jena constantly looking back.

Oh, this is fun.

“…What if we’re heading in opposite directions?”

“Ah.”

Right, what should we do then?

If we lived in opposite directions,

I’d have to walk her home and then go a much longer distance alone…

Then, surrounded by dangerous men, Jena would eventually…

“Eek! A man intruder, absolutely not…!”

We should just walk together—

“Then, are you going to let me stay at your place tonight?”

“W-what! Eek…!”

“I thought so. I’ll follow you. Let’s go together.”

“You… You can’t just say things like that… Hah… okay… Let’s do that…”

Staying at Jena’s place.

What does that even mean, Jena?

You’re still in high school! Of course, you’re an adult, but still…

I couldn’t help but walk faster from the embarrassment.

It’s really sneaky when you think about it.

But I guess that’s part of what makes it so appealing.

“Heh~, heh~.”

I heard a cheerful little hum.

Maybe I should just say I’ll let her stay over.

“Yeah, you can stay at my place.”

“Ahh! Husband, that’s too soon…”

“Where do you think you’re going!”

“Ugh…”

For a moment, I imagined Jena entering my house.

As she opened the front door and stepped inside with excitement,

“Wow, this place is so small!”

“That’s to save money…”

“Ugh, what’s with the state of this place? It’s filthy!”

“…I didn’t do that!”

“Ha-yul, I can’t live with you.” Ah…

What…?!

…I’ll have to clean up the house when I get home today.

It’s not even my mess. It’s unfair.

“This way…”

“Ah, I’m going the same way. Perfect!”

I kept walking home, continuing my pointless daydreams.

Where did this kid come from?

He’s been here all day.

He’s my mate.

That’s a good excuse, isn’t it?

To go to the toilet, to eat.

I keep teasing her, wondering if she’s good enough.

I keep teasing her about her looks and personality…

After watching her for a day, she was, what can I say, peculiar.

‘There’s actually a person like this.

Howl was the kind of person who could best be described as ‘vain’.

The kind of person who would react violently to even the slightest teasing.

But it’s funny how she tries to be proud of herself.

I wonder if I could ask him for something weird, and he wouldn’t like it, but he’d give it to me.

I wonder how she ever got through school in the first place.

Of course, I didn’t find her frustrating or dislike her.

On the contrary…

I wanted it.

It’s like looking at a pair of custom-made shoes that fit my body perfectly.

When I think of shoes, I have a very strange imagination.

Ha-yul on all fours in front of my imaginary bed.

I put my left foot on her head like I would a real shoe.

She bends her head down and kisses my right foot on the floor, as if she’s happy.

‘Hmph, hmph.’

I can’t help but hum.

If I were alone, I wouldn’t have such a deep thought.

I know I won’t be able to do it anyway.

Mmm….

‘If I train her well, she might actually be able to do it?

I thought to myself as I followed Ha-yul.

Jena…?

Huh? Ah,

‘Here, this is my house…’

‘Ah. Aha.’

I arrived at Ha-yul’s house as planned.

I was going to follow her wherever she went anyway.

Sigh.

‘I’m just a little further from here. Interesting. It’s the same direction as my house.’

‘Oh, yeah…?’

My shoulders shake as I take a step closer.

Someone reacting to my every move. It’s almost too much fun.

I leaned in slightly, made eye contact, and opened my mouth.

Look, there’s no option to say no. Okay?

‘Do you want me to pick you up tomorrow?’

‘Uh, uh?! Are you, are you okay? Are you, are you.’

‘Of course I’d love to, but… It might be early in the morning…’ I said.

‘…Of course. Can I have your mobile? I’ll dial your number.’

He leaned down and flirted with me, and I almost grabbed it.

‘Uh, here! Hehe…’

I hand over my phone without question.

Oh, you didn’t see my expression.

Thank goodness.

I take the mobile phone.

The phone app was on.

Sarak.

What’s the point of just giving me a number?

I decided to fiddle around with it.

Just

Hee

‘Hmm…’

It doesn’t seem to be restrained.

I flick through the home screen.

[Camera]

[Photos]

[Hypnosis App]

‘…what is this, hypnosis?’

I find something interesting.

‘This looks very unhealthy.’

Okay, that’s it.

Back to the phone app.

Tap-tap-tap-tap

Tsk-tsk-tsk

I dial my number and send the call.

After a second or so, I hang up and hand it back.

Here. Here

‘Yeah…! Hehe. Well, I’ll see you tomorrow, I’ll go first…!’

‘That, phone. Ha… No. Yeah, I’ll pick you up tomorrow.’

I wonder if I’m being too blunt…

For a moment, my prepared excuse flashed through my mind.

He accepts without question.

A feeling of despondency comes over me.

Common sense dictates that you spend that much time dialling your own number…

No. Never mind.

Good is good.

Ding, ding, ding.

The door slammed shut.

I turned and reached for my mobile phone.

One missed call.

I save it under Ha-yul’s name.

‘Hypnosis app…

A name that sounded like it had a really bad back.

I walked slowly and typed it into the internet.

I clicked on the images tab.

‘Wow. Wait. Howie, you. No.’

I stared… I faced…

What the. It’s real.

My face heated with every touch.

Everywhere I touched was tawdry.

No, I don’t know if that’s the right word for it.

‘Ugh. Crazy. Crazy, isn’t it?’

I glance around, shoving my phone into my pocket to see who’s watching.

He fanned his burning face with his hand and walked quickly.

Ha-yul’s face floats up, superimposed over a crude cartoon character.

Ah.

With a squeeze, I feel my underwear getting a little wet. Ratbae

‘You, you lewd bitch…!’
