1.

The artifact showcased its overwhelming power.

Sharon was completely unable to resist any of Siwoo’s commands.

Even if they were things she’d usually be too shy to do, she complied with all his commands completely and without any hesitation.

For example, he asked her to show him how she usually masturbated.

He made her spread her long legs wide open to expose her soft inner flesh.

Making her squat naked on the lab table while he held her hips and thrusted up from below.

Throughout the actions, her face was burning with embarrassment, but this was just her reaping what she had sowed. She had no choice but to follow his humiliating demands.

“Hoaahm...”

Originally, Siwoo planned to work through the night, but Sharon’s seductive teasing was simply too much for him to resist.

In the end, they tossed and turned on the sofa until dawn, with Sharon ended up sleeping there by the end of it.

While she was sleeping, Siwoo gently removed the headband that was still on her head.

Seeing the headband in his hands, he couldn’t help but think, ‘Damn, this thing is way better than I thought’.

“What a dangerous artifact...”

Normally, if Sharon wanted to, she could easily overpower Siwoo.

Or, at the very least, she could resist him enough to prevent him from completely dominating her.

But, the moment she put on that headband, that stopped being the case.

She became unable to resist him, as she could only obediently follow all the orders he had given her, even the most humiliating ones.

The psychological dominance Siwoo felt from that was unlike any others.

“Kuu... .”

Right now, Sharon had fallen into a deep sleep after their intense night together.

Even as she lay down, her impressive boobs lifted the blanket upwards. Seeing this, Siwoo gently squeezed them.

Her breasts, white like snow, bounced back at his touch, showcasing their firmness.

Their soft and smooth texture was unlike anything else in the world.

“Ngg...”

Sharon furrowed her brows and let out a soft breath, maybe because she felt the cold temperature of his hand.

At that moment, a mischievous idea crossed Siwoo’s mind.

Using his fingertips, he gently twisted her tiny, cherry-sized nipples that shone with a bright pink hue.

“Aah....”

At first, they were soft like jelly, but after he had done that, they slowly hardened and stood stiffly.

As he did that, Sharon’s lips parted slightly, letting out a soft moan that accompanied her breath.

He had been biting and sucking on these all night. The marks left by that were undeniably erotic.

On a side note, the way she masturbated was a sight to behold.

During that, she showed him how she was able to suck on her own boobs.

That was how one could tell that her boobs were easily a legendary-class.

He remembered her face back then as he continued to knead her breasts while feeling a sense of heaviness from his lower half. More specifically, the sight of her teary eyes as she was suffering from embarrassment.

Anyway, I should probably head over to the Yesod Mansion to check up on Ms. Diana...

But time was running tight.

He was about to cover Sharon’s body up, but at that moment...

“Siwoo!”

Countess Albireo suddenly opened the door and entered the lab.

Unfortunately for them, the sofa’s position was directly facing the door.

“Eek!”

So, Albireo ended up seeing Siwoo standing naked with his little guy standing below him. Almost immediately, she covered her eyes before collapsing to the floor.

Whether it was a stroke of luck or not, Sharon remained fast asleep.

So, Siwoo left Sharon behind after rolling her up in a blanket and went outside to talk with the countess.

“I’m truly sorry about all that... What brings you here, Countess...?”

“I heard there was an incident in Border Town.”

Albireo shot him a cold gaze.

Actually, he could sense a hint of contempt in that gaze.

To elaborate on what kind of look she was giving him... It was the look that someone would give to an inconsiderate person who was hosting a pork belly party in front of an Islamic mosque.

For a witch, magic is like their faith, and the lab was essentially their sacred temple.

In other words, the countess caught him and Sharon having a nasty sex in a sacred place. It was understandable that she reacted like this.

“I was worried, so I immediately went home from the Modern World and rushed straight back here, but... I see that everything’s fine, huh?”

“...Yes...”

Moreover, she was the twins’ mother.

Arriving at that conjecture, Siwoo congratulated himself.

Because he was no longer the old virgin Siwoo.

He was able to read Diana’s mind to some extent now.

“I haven’t finished what I wanted to say yet.”

Diana grabbed Siwoo’s arm, stopping him from passing by.

This surprised him a little.

After all, this was the first time she had ever initiated a physical contact with him.

All this time, she had always kept her distance as if he were some sort of virus.

“M-M-Mr. S-Siwoo... T-Thank you for saving me...”

She muttered as she lowered her head.

Her soft voice made her words almost inaudible, but this was her way of showing her gratitude.

Also, for the first time, he called him by his name instead of just ‘you’.

It seemed like the incident yesterday had served as a trigger for her to acknowledge him.

Siwoo felt a sense of satisfaction.

The old people’s saying was true. Good deeds indeed always come back to you.

“I accept your gratitude. Shall we go inside now?”

“No.”

Still holding his arm, Diana pushed Siwoo out of the door.

“Huh? W-Wait—” He stammered as the door was slammed shut behind him.

“Not today. I’m going to rest. Goodbye.”

Blindsided by the sudden dismissal, Siwoo stood there, mouth agape.

“Did I do something wrong?”

4.

As soon as she shut the door, Diana dove onto her bed as if fleeing.

For someone who usually moved no faster than 20 cm/s, her sudden increase in speed was quite notable.

Earlier this morning, she had the urge to groom herself, so she spent a whole half an hour brushing and braiding her hair.

She also picked up the prettiest dress she had in her wardrobe, but because of what she had done, everything had turned into a complete mess.

“Ugh...!”

She flailed around on the wide bed for quite some time until she dropped a pillow down. Only after that did she go still.

But, her heart was still pounding wildly, and it showed no sign of calming down.

Weird, weird, weird. Everything feels weird!

If she were to start listing all the things she found weird, it would go on forever.

Number one.

Why did she say she’d attend the tutoring session today?

Knowing her mother, she’d probably let her stay in bed for a whole week.

In other words, she had a free pass to skip those bothersome lessons.

Yet, she had gone out of her way to call her maid in the morning and announce that their tutoring would proceed as usual.

Number two.

Despite falling asleep so late into the night, she had woken up at the crack of dawn.

After that, she took a short thirty minute bath, ate her breakfast and got dressed.

While she didn’t mind wearing nice-looking accessories or dresses...

She never bothered prettying herself, as that usually came with the cost of effort and discomfort. Typically, she’d just dress herself enough to maintain her dignity.

Yet today she had spent nearly one, or maybe even two hours styling her hair, wearing a corset under her dress, and putting on heels.

And number three, the weirdest thing of them all.

The incredibly weird feeling she had when she saw his face.

Her heart suddenly raced so fast, and her breathing became heavy.

Not only that, her head also spun so much that she could barely stand, let alone speak.

These symptoms actually started when he first knocked on her door.

And the moment she saw his face, they just intensified, reaching their peak.

She could only stand there, unable to do anything.

On the contrary, he was the same as usual.

His handsome and well-groomed face, with a touch of masculinity in it when she examined it closely. Wearing the usual tailored suits that fit him perfectly, he let out his gentle voice that sounded no less gentle than usual.

Yet, for some reason, she felt overwhelmed when she faced him.

She tried to call him by his name, like what her mother did, but she just struggled to do it.

And like an idiot, she just thanked him before kicking him out.

Diana let out a deep sigh, lamenting her stupidity.
