Eat The World Tree

Chapter 55: The First Partner (2)

I took a sip from my drink. The vibrant tune echoed throughout the bar, and the rising intoxication made me feel good.

“Cheers!”

A slightly drunk Seyeong head-locked me, offering her soju glass.

“Drink slowly, will you?”

“I don’t care. You’ll take care of me anyway. Hurry up and cheers! C’mon. Cheers!”

I was a bit worried that, at this rate, we might end up passed out on the street rather than having a nice hangout. Regardless, she seemed to disregard my advice.

Cheers.

The bitter taste of alcohol slid down my throat. Why did I feel like drinking so much since coming here? Actually, I had been continuously drinking. From Friday till now, Saturday evening. It was all because of a call from Seyeong a few hours ago.

“Drink water. Why are you like this all of a sudden? You usually control yourself.”

Pouring water into a cup and offering it, Seyeong looked momentarily lost in thought.

“I haven’t had a drink in a while because of work. I love alcohol.”

“…Ah.”

It was unavoidable if she had been busy with her other work. As I was about to take another sip, Seyeong’s face suddenly lit up.

“But it feels good to see you after such a long time. Hehehe. How about I just take you with me? I can’t let you return, but I can guarantee you forever.”

“Did you lose your mind, ma’am?”

“Damn, empathize with me!”

“…….”

Watching Seyeong’s unpredictable mood swings was bewildering. Has she been stressed lately? While gulping down alcohol and stew, she seemed satisfied, leaning onto my shoulder, and finally explained herself.

“Just joking, dumbass.”

“…Yes.”

“Damn, you understand quickly. You octopus Casanova.”

“Hey, that’s a bit harsh.”

“You look capable of it, so be careful. You never know when you might get caught.”

I hadn’t even properly started my first relationship, and here she was, accusing me of being a Casanova. If I were really playing around, that would be unfair. Seyeong, oblivious to my feelings, just continued to laugh.

After a few more drinks and chatter, we decided to leave.

“I think I drank too much… Let’s take a walk.”

“You’re realizing that now?”

“Don’t state the obvious. I think you look best with your mask on and keeping quiet.”

“…Yes, ma’am.”

As she took off her cardigan, she sneakily made some body contact. Her black tank top exposed her cleavage, naturally drawing my eyes. Seyeong’s eyes curled in amusement.

“Pervert. A student being horny over a teacher, hehehe. That’s enough. Stop looking.”

She released her grip from her tank top and promptly wrapped her cardigan around my neck. A familiar scent wafted from the yellow cloth that covered the lower part of the mask and my mouth.

‘Why is she acting like this today?’

She had been quite touchy since earlier. How did she manage to be so cheeky and yet not annoying? She spoke her mind, yet she didn’t seem completely drunk. Was she doing this on purpose?

If that was the case, I should play along. I extended my hand to Seyeong.

“Give me your hand.”

“Why?”

Seyeong pulled her hand away initially, but when I tried to hold it, she gave her right hand without resistance.

“…Hey, what’s this?”

We held hands for a few seconds.

“You’re weird. Hey, snap out of it.”

Seyeong, with her face turning red, seemed to feign annoyance.

“Aren’t you going to let go? How dare a guy who’s never been in a relationship touch the hand of a pure lady?”

“Have you ever been in a relationship, ma’am?”

“You really have a mouth on you, jerk.”

That definitely seemed like a genuine reaction. I guess I hit a nerve. I couldn’t help but feel slightly good about it.

She hugged me, pretending to be joking, and Seyeong looked like she didn’t really mind it. This led me to a sudden realization.

“Ma’am.”

“Hm?”

“I know it might sound odd, but what exactly are we?”

“Sex friends.”

Seyeong, suggesting she wouldn’t cross certain boundaries, put up a metaphorical wall. I felt a bit taken aback. Even though we had shared so many secrets and understood each other, she seemed distant.

And she was beautiful, way more than any idol out there. Even though she had forgiven me for the past, she didn’t hesitate to show her affection. If one couldn’t see that, they’d be nothing short of a fool.

“…Hmm.”

After examining my expression, Seyeong quickly corrected herself.

“You know what ‘Some’ is, right? It’s like Sex Friends, and ‘Some Friends’ means you can also satisfy other needs.”

Seyeong pressed her body against mine. Her arm was nestled between my chest.

“Agree?”

“I agree.”

Although I nodded, I honestly didn’t fully comprehend. A sex friend that was like a full-fledged romantic relationship wasn’t that basically dating? However, considering the societal background and her judgments, her usage of these terms made some sense.

‘Initially, I wasn’t even planning on a real relationship because of the quest.’

We continued to chat and walk for a while. I thought it might be awkward since it had been a while, but it felt as comfortable as meeting an old childhood friend.

“Hey.”

“Yes?”

“Want to head over now?”

I nodded, following her cue. We walked without worry, as Shiba was left asleep, and there was no risk of rumors circulating at this hour.

It was the perfect timing if anything.

However, she stopped at a building. Similar to the private space where I had met Lee Seonghan before, a place used for private meetings.

“What are you doing? Aren’t you coming in?”

She playfully smacked my behind, leading me to the office, which felt oddly familiar.

“Ah!”

“Recognize it now?”

It resembled the space where I’d once forcibly taken Seyeong during a quest.

“Why bring me here? It’s not a particularly fond memory.”

“See for yourself.”

-Swish.

“Why are you taking off your clothes so suddenly?”

In one swift move, she pulled up her shirt, revealing her chest.

“Look.”

I was taken aback by the sudden exposure of her half-transparent black bra.

With a mischievous look, she approached me and placed her hands on my belt.

-Swish, swish.

She slowly slid her hand down.

“Why do you think I went to the trouble of buying this office just to undress?”

Seyeong didn’t hide her excitement in her voice.

“Do you remember how it was back then?”

“What?”

“Just there, like this-”

Pushed by her force, I fell back onto the sofa. My shirt unbuttoned halfway.

“Ah…”

As a shirt button caught her nipple and twisted it, she let out a faint moan.

“Keeping you silent with a foul-smelling mouth like this.”

Her long, snake-like tongue invaded my mouth. At that moment, I tensed up, signaling a ‘help’.

“Can you, um, take off the mask?”

“Don’t take it off, bastard.”

“…What?”

“I prefer it with the mask on. Like this.”

Once again, she silenced me with a kiss. From bottom to top, the hand that had been caressing me moved faster, unzipping and releasing me. It sprung forth, hitting Seyeong’s thigh.

“…♡”

Carnivorous woman.

I’d heard of such women.

Women who devour men down to the bone marrow. Seyeong, with her eyes clouded with ecstasy, leaned down, taking me into her mouth.

“Slurp, sip”

The tantalizing touch of her tongue and the different sensation of her pursed lips…

Without even removing her pants, Seyeong began to scratch the wet part of her underwear with her finger.

“Hehe… Aha.”

“What…?”

As she pleasured herself with one hand, she gave a foxy grin. I was too lost in the sensation to respond.

“Well, you looked awful back then, so we weren’t compatible…”

She briefly sulked, nuzzling her face against me.

“It’s okay because I like you.”

“What do you like?”

Pulling down her pants halfway, she climbed on top of me. Her soaked intimate area was revealed through black underwear, seemingly matching her bra.

Drawing me close, she whispered in my ear.

“What do you like?”

Despite the husky voice, I could feel the tip of my member brushing against her entrance multiple times.

“Hmm? Want to guess?”

Feeling an invitation, I gathered strength and thrust upwards from the sofa.

-Zip!

The sound of air and fluids echoed in the room.

“… Ah♥”

Seyeong shivered once. Her intoxication seemingly faded as she hugged me close.

“…Really, it feels so good.”

“What does?”

“Maybe if you keep going until I break, I’ll tell you.”

The typically vulnerable Seyeong when embraced. I swiftly changed our positions.

“Eek!”

Her surprised sound made me smile. My full insertion made her flinch multiple times. Each time, a tremor ran through her lips. Her eyes stared at me desperately as if trying not to lose consciousness.

Her quivering lips, exposed underwear, delicate feet resting on my shoulders, and sweaty neck… I buried my face there, licking.

“Ah…”

I began to move my hips slowly.

“Ah… Haa… Huh.”

The room was filled with whispered conversations.

The room’s atmosphere became tender this time, like embracing a soft, fluffy pillow. Feeling a slight change, Seyeong realized she was in a different position.

“Is it okay?”

“Hmm, it’s… nice.”

“What’s that?”

“It’s just…”

The room’s mood started to shift dynamically. Soft sounds gradually intensified, and the room’s warmth grew.

She seemed to be trying to hold back a giggle or perhaps had simply forgotten to breathe. Every time she felt overwhelmed, Seyeong tightly embraced the cozy feeling, her face showing pure bliss.

It was as if she was asking for more affection. The once assertive Seyeong now felt so distant.

Now, she just wanted to experience comfort. And I, too, swayed in this warm ambiance.

Taking a deep breath, she immersed herself in the moment.

She let out a sigh of contentment.

Seyeong bent slightly forward, embracing me tighter. She felt even more elated.

There was a sense of culmination. Seyeong picked up a fallen acorn and handed it to me.

“Here, try this.”

“But you didn’t like this before.”

“Just try it.”

I tasted it. The taste was unfamiliar. Seyeong sat up and gave me a comforting hug. There was a playful shift in the room’s dynamics.

She then teased me,

“Why the sudden mood change?”

I decided to change our positions, lifting her spirits even higher.

This new position felt refreshing yet intense. It might be tough to hold for long, but the magic of the room made it possible.

“Can you see?”

“Yes.”

Seyeong glanced down and took a deep breath. Even in her anticipation, she pulled me closer, taking the lead.

I whispered,

“You’re so unpredictable.”

She retorted,

“You brought this out in me.”

There was a playful banter, each of us trying to outdo the other in wit and charm.

The room’s energy heightened further, and both of us were lost in the moment.

Suddenly, I decided to change the pace, gently guiding her to relax on the couch.

There was a soft gasp as we continued our playful exchange.

A soft melody filled the room.

She gently lifted her body and embraced the delicate silhouette. Only when Seyeong felt a change did she realize her position had shifted.

“Do you like it?”

“Mm! Yes, it’s…good.”

“What is?”

“Everything.”

The rhythmic motion intensified. The subtle sound grew louder, and our connecting point became warmer.

“Ah, um! Oh, hmm♥ Eep!”

Whether she was holding back or simply forgetting to breathe, her breath caught momentarily.

But Seyeong tightly wrapped her legs around me every time, displaying a blissful expression.

It was as if she was asking for more. The fierce side of Seyeong had long disappeared.

She merely called out in pleasure. I, too, moved passionately.

At last, a final moment.

Without a thought, I expressed my emotions deeply.

-Zwooosh!

“Haah♥”

Seyeong, letting out a soft sound, bent over to embrace me tightly. Her body arced beautifully.

The feeling was evident without looking. A falling acorn rolled on the floor, signifying a peak moment.

Even in her daze, Seyeong picks up the acorn and offers it to me.

“Here, have this.”

“I thought you didn’t like these.”

“Just eat it.”

-A crunch.

The taste wasn’t pleasant. Seeing my scrunched face, Seyeong sat up and embraced me, caressing the back of my head.

She moved somewhat playfully.

“Hey! What are you—No, stop!”

Taking advantage of a weakened Seyeong, I slid my arms under her and lifted her. Once positioned, I support her legs and elevate them.

“Hey…”

“Do you dislike it?”

“… It’s good, but I don’t like it.”

A position referred to as the prone pose. It was an invigorating and candid stance performed from behind. Normally, maintaining this would be challenging, but given the uniqueness of this world, it was a special position.

“Can you see?”

“…Yes.”

Seyeong gulped as she glanced at their connection. Yet, whether due to excitement, she reached back with both arms, pulling my neck closer. A complete ‘M’ posture.

Soft sounds filled the air.

Whispering into her ear,

“You truly are playful.”

“… It’s your fault! You made me like this!”

“I felt it from the start. You’ve often been by yourself, right? The evidence wasn’t there. Or should I say, the entrance folds?”

“That was from training!”

“Really?”

“Just… ah, stop talking. Enough.”

Even as she displayed a distressed face, the intensity grew stronger. I increased the tempo.

Soft sounds.

“Ahh, mmm!!!”

Unable to properly voice her feelings, Seyeong, in her restrained state, could only emit a muffled sound.

This time, I released my hold, letting her lie face down on the couch, then thrust with vigor.

Soft thud

“Ah!”

She collapsed from the sudden release of tension.

She tried to prop herself up, and her top slipped a bit.

No matter. I continued in the heat of the moment. There was a warm sensation.

I held her closely while, with one hand, I gently caressed her side.

Whispering sounds.

The sound of overflowing emotion. As I continued to show affection, Seyeong, reinvigorated, urgently spoke.

“Ah, please, take it slow. It feels overwhelming.”

“Isn’t this what you wanted? I thought you liked it this way.”

“I did, but not to this extent… Ahh!”

“Should I hold back?”

Nods came vigorously in response.

Without uttering a word, her actions conveyed that she was fully engrossed. The number of ‘acorns’ increased, and as the feeling grew stronger, I showed my affection deeply.

“Hmm!”

I gently reassured her.

A soft sound.

“…”

After the intense moment passed, we held each other on the couch, now damp from our combined exertions.

---

“Whew… You really did it inside.”

After a moment, Seyeong’s usual tone returned. She appeared satisfied, caressing her abdomen even while swearing.

Suddenly, she looked at me with a playful smirk,

“What if I become pregnant? Would you take responsibility?”

“You’re the one who said not to take it seriously, remember?”

“Psh, are you upset? Do you want us to actually date?”

“Oh, come on. Who would be interested in an older woman like you?”

Knowing she was joking, I just lay down on the sofa. Seyeong, looking quite joyful, nestled against my chest.

“…Hey.”

Her voice had changed, allowing me to quickly discern whether she was serious.

“Yes?”

“Why did you force yourself on me back then? It doesn’t make any sense. Given our status and everything else, how could you have just appeared and acted like that? It’s not like you.”

It was surprising how she pieced that together.

I gently stroked her back, eliciting a soft moan from her.

“It was because of a quest.”

“…I thought so?”

She smirked as if she had been suspecting it.

“Which World Tree would give such a ridiculous quest?”

At that, I responded with a light chuckle.

“Just as I said. Now you see why I don’t want to be the husband of the World Tree? Honestly, I’m not even sure if the World Tree likes me. If I fail the quest, the penalty is death, and even if I succeed-”

“-Hold on.”

Suddenly, Seyeong interrupted me. The afterglow of intimacy vanished from her face, replaced by shock.

“… What’s the penalty?”

She looked genuinely baffled.
