City of Witches Chapter 128

Odil and Siwoo continued walking even after leaving Tarotown.

They didn't have a particular destination in mind, but as they walked wherever their feet took them, they found themselves having come quite a distance.

Isn't that what a stroll is supposed to be like?

"Master Odil."

"Pfft-choo! Ah, sorry... sniff."

She had evaporated the moisture with Magic the moment she stepped out of the fountain, but it seemed the brief chill had thoroughly bothered Odil.

Seeing her tightly clutching the cloak she had been loosely wearing until now and sneezing repeatedly made him think so.

He worried she might catch a cold.

"Sniff, what were you going to say?"

"Would it be possible to meet Count Gemernai?"

"Huh?"

Odil tilted her head for a moment.

Then, as if it wasn't a difficult request, she nodded and spoke.

"Not difficult. But why?"

"I want to leave Gehenna as planned. I'm thinking of asking the Count for help."

"...Already?"

"Yes, I want to leave as soon as possible."

Gehenna is a swamp of the heart.

It was never a place I particularly liked to begin with, and after all sorts of experiences, I no longer wanted to stay.

Now that I'm not Amelia's personal slave anymore, if Count Gemernai just handles the paperwork, I should be able to leave right away.

"Well, that's true, hmm... Yeah, right. That was the original plan. Right?"

"Right?"

Odil rattled off some obvious yet inexplicable words and then made a complicated expression.

Siwoo felt uneasy.

Had something changed while he was unconscious?

Hearing Odil's next words, he could at least feel somewhat relieved.

"But Master has gone on a business trip to the Mortal Realm... for two weeks, no, a month? She won't be reachable for about that long."

Odil suddenly spoke while looking at the scenery opposite Siwoo.

"I see..."

From Siwoo's perspective, he wanted to leave this place quickly, but if that's the situation, there was nothing to be done.

There weren't any other high-ranking Witches he could ask for help, and if Odil said so, then it must be true.

Anyway, as they kept walking, their view opened up to a flat plain where the horizon met the night sky and a large reservoir appeared.

Dozens of windmills were spinning around it.

Having lived in Gehenna for five years, he hadn't even known such a place existed.

"Tarotown's domestic water is supplied from there. If you go past the reservoir on the other side, there are the Mendel Hills, and they get water from there too, apparently. Guess groundwater alone has its limits."

The windmills lined up along the embankment, turning slowly and sluggishly, evoked a distinctly European sensibility.

If there were tulips there, it would be exactly like the Netherlands.

A sense of leisure washed over him.

The curious Odil couldn't possibly just stand still like this.

She pointed at a windmill with her thumb and asked.

"Wanna go inside?"

"Is that allowed?"

"Why wouldn't it be? We're just gonna take a quick peek and leave anyway."

"If it's just that, then sure."

He was actually curious about what the inside of a windmill looked like.

Though he couldn't tell if there was any difference, Odil carefully chose one from the seemingly identical windmills, picked the lock on the door with Magic, and went in.

Seeing the lock clatter and easily roll on the ground, it clearly wasn't her first or second time doing this.

The windmill was about 2.5 stories tall.

Inside, it was mostly empty, with just a large gear spinning to harness the wind's power.

It was very dark, with almost no moonlight entering except through a small skylight in the ceiling.

Siwoo and Odil had to raise their voices slightly over the sound of meshing gears and the chug-chug of the waterwheel drawing water.

"It's emptier than I thought."

"There are stairs over there too."

"Wanna go up?"

"Sure."

As Siwoo said, at the far left end, there were stairs leading to the second floor that looked like a railing.

Probably equipment installed to manage the windmill's crankshaft.

Carefully climbing the old wooden stairs so they wouldn't break, a floor made of wooden planks was revealed.

It was cleaner than expected but seemed surprisingly flimsy.

It felt like it might collapse if the two of them jumped around.

"Hmm..."

But even after coming up, there wasn't much to do.

The windmill wasn't an observatory, the diagonal skylight above was too high to see even on tiptoe while standing, and the inside was quite desolate.

Odil, who had been looking around continuously, also seemed to lose interest quickly.

"Shall we go down now?"

"Assistant."

"Yes?"

"I have one more promise I made. Do you remember by any chance?"

"A promise?"

Was there something else?

He thought hard, but nothing specific came to mind.

Odil glanced up at Siwoo and then tapped her own cheek.

"Ah."

Only then did Odil's promise come to mind.

He remembered what she had said when they confronted Ea to save the Twins.

"You said you'd do it on my face when we got back, remember?"

"Th-that's right?"

"Wanna... do it now?"

Siwoo unconsciously gulped.

Was it because of the dazed kiss at the fountain earlier?

Even though she was trying to speak nonchalantly, Odil's face, flushed red and shy, looked incredibly attractive to him.

He felt an unfamiliar, ticklish sensation, and his tongue stiffened for no reason.

"Now, here?"

"It's just the two of us anyway. Actually, I came to a somewhat secluded place on purpose."

"Well..."

As Siwoo hesitated, Odil firmly tugged at his collar.

It was a light, fingertip touch, but enough to be clearly felt.

"It's true I want to do it for you, Assistant. But I also... want to. With you."

"........."

"Hmm?"

Like a cat acting cute, Odil stealthily clung to Siwoo, opened her eyes wide, and stuck out her lips.

A pose asking for a kiss.

Just as he was about to be drawn in and kiss her like before.

Siwoo felt a latch click shut in his heart.

Amelia's face surfaced in his mind again.

This time, it was the image of her tearfully clinging to him.

Would this instability disappear if he just let himself be sucked in and became one with Odil?

Fully aware that this was an extremely disrespectful, great discourtesy to Odil, Siwoo slowly drank in Odil's lips.

"Hmm...mm..."

Odil, whose eyelashes fluttered, raised the arm that had been holding Siwoo's sleeve and naturally wrapped it around his neck.

The kiss at the fountain and the kiss inside the windmill.

Even though tangling tongues and exchanging saliva and breath were clearly the same act, the temperature and sensation were different.

It was hotter, stickier.

"Mmm...smack...cold..."As if trying to divert his attention elsewhere.

Siwoo naturally untied the knot around Odil's neck and removed her Cloak.

As the thick Cloak fell away, a white inner dress and drawers that didn't even cover her thighs were revealed.

"Ugh... Ugh..."

Siwoo's kiss was rougher than before.

He almost shoved Odil against the wall, causing her back to thud against it.

Without stopping the kiss, he wedged his knee between her thighs.

"Puhah!"

"Huff... Huff..."

Even though they had only just finished kissing, Odil's eyes were half-lidded as if drunk.

The pounding heartbeat felt through their pressed-together chests was at least twice as fast as usual.

"A-Assistant, you're really forceful today."

A remark that slipped out without her even realizing it.

Whether it was truly sincere or just a conditioned reflex to immerse herself in the situation, even Siwoo himself didn't know...

"You're especially charming today, Odil-nim."

Hearing Siwoo's cheesy line, Odil's eyes widened like a startled rabbit's right on the spot.

She froze stiffly in that position as if turned to ice, then nodded her head vigorously.

"R-right. I am kinda charming."

Without waiting any longer, Siwoo pressed his lips to Odil's again.

The more their tongues intertwined, the harder his lower body grew.

His sexual desire surged, and his excited mind was already imagining stripping her bare and coveting that youthful flesh.

Siwoo's fingertips hooked the straps of her inner dress and pulled.

The straps slid down her rounded shoulders, causing the dress to slip off and fully expose Odil's bare chest.

He could feel Odil flinch as she felt her clothes being removed, but by then, Siwoo had already seized her breasts.

Though 'seized' isn't quite the right description.

Her breasts weren't particularly large, after all.

But they were firm and elastic, and the perky, pointed nipples made their presence known.

Just as Siwoo's fingertips lightly twisted a nipple.

Odil gently pushed against Siwoo's chest.

"Assistant, wait a moment!"

"Are you uncomfortable?"

"No, it's not that. I want to go first today. Lean back against the wall here."

Their positions reversed under Odil's lead.

This time, Siwoo leaned his back against the wall, and Odil crouched down below him.

Sliding down, Odil spread the Cloak on the floor and knelt on it.

Then, she fumbled as she pulled down Siwoo's pants and underwear.

"Wow..."

Siwoo's erect cock, standing tall like a space shuttle, twitched before Odil's nose.

It had grown this large just from kissing, without even being touched yet.

Considering he'd been lying down, his cock, which hadn't ejaculated in over a hundred days, had sticky pre-ejaculate beading up at the tip.

"It looks huge seeing it after so long... Oh! Assistant, you've grown hair."

Odil pointed at Siwoo's groin with her fingertip.

Though he was born with little body hair, as his body had matured again, a fuzzy patch of pubic hair was visible.

"You don't have to use your mou..."

"Hahp!"

The moment Siwoo showed signs of trying to stop her, Odil opened her mouth wide and took his glans between her lips.

She gently pushed her tongue tip into his urethra, cleaning away all the pre-ejaculate.

The melting sensation made Siwoo shift more weight against the wall.

Odil licked the entire glans with her tongue as if sucking on a hard candy, then pulled her mouth away and grinned.

"What's the big deal? It's not like it reaches that far anyway."

Then she swallowed his cock again and began bobbing her head back and forth.

Her perky breasts, peeking out from the half-slipped dress, swayed slightly with the motion.

Her furrowed brow and eyebrows, seemingly focused, and her hazy violet eyes all accelerated Siwoo's arousal.

The act of fellatio itself was stimulating, but the fact that a woman's face was visible meant the prettier the face, the more exciting it was—and Odil's beauty was top-tier, earning bonus points in that regard.

"Uhm... mm... pa... pyuup... chup... chyuup..."

"Kuhk..."

Siwoo let out an involuntary sound at the sensation of his lower body melting and being sucked into Odil's mouth.

Her eyes, seeming delighted by his reaction, glanced upward.

Holding his cock like a microphone while just peeking up with her eyes...

Combined with this angle and her suggestive tone, a scene harmful to his cock unfolded.

"Pyuhu... Feeling good?"

This is bad.

Perhaps because it had been stored away for too long, he felt like he was about to come already.

"Assistant, if you feel like you're going to come, you have to tell me, okay? As promised, you have to do it on my face."

Saying this, Odil began diligently sucking his cock again, making wet sounds and nodding her head.

At first, there were misses like her teeth occasionally scraping, but soon her movements became skilled.

Unable to hold back any longer, Siwoo urgently grabbed Odil's small head.

"Wait, just a moment."

"Wumwup...! Why? Did it hurt?"

He needed a break, at least.

He had male pride.

Even if Odil wouldn't mind him coming in just one minute after starting fellatio, it bothered Siwoo.

"I also have something I want to do for you, Odil-nim."

"Can't you just come on my face first and then do it?"

His cock twitched again at Odil's innocent-faced request for a facial.

He had felt it before when sampling the Twins' anal double serving, but he wondered if this was what a sense of depravity felt like.

"Please hear me out first."

To both cool down his cock and delay ejaculation, Siwoo made a proposal to Odil.

Author's Note (Afterword)

I sincerely want to make a bromaid.

Really, really, really.
