The roles had changed.
I was now sitting in a chair, and Yuria had begun washing my body.
Yuria, holding a shower towel, was visibly tense. I understood. It was her first time seeing and touching a man's body.
"Put the shower towel down and start by washing my hair."
"Yes, master."
Yuria's touch was awkward at first, but it gradually improved. I could feel her movements becoming more skilled.
'Damn, is washing hair a talent too?'
I remember my mother, a hairdresser, nagging me, "Can't you even wash your hair properly?" Back then, I thought it was just meaningless nagging and didn't pay much attention.
"Please close your eyes."
"...."
I closed my eyes as instructed. Water flowed down over my head. In my mind, I began plotting how to use Yuria.
First, let's assassinate anyone who gets in my way.
Of course, the targets for assassination would be limited, but even that would be a huge advantage for me.
Yuria then picked up the shower towel and began meticulously wiping my body. Her touch was quite delicate.
Finally, she put the shower towel down and reached toward that area. It was because I had touched it earlier without using the towel.
Let's see how much talent she has. If she can get me hard, I'll acknowledge her skills.
Her fingers, slippery with body wash, began to touch my member.
'...Oh?'
It was just ordinary. No matter how much of a genius one is, there are bound to be limits when doing something for the first time.
She touched me very carefully. I could feel her consideration in her fingertips.
'I'm getting hard. It's happening.'
A healthy man, no matter how little he thinks about sex, will get an erection when that area is touched. Especially someone like me, with exceptional vitality.
Looking at her face through the mirror, I noticed her cheeks were slightly flushed. Yet, she didn't stop her hands. She washed me meticulously, from my balls to my anus.
"Mmm..."
I nodded in acknowledgment. This level of skill was definitely passable. A genius, indeed.
Soon, we entered the warm bath.
The water in the bath had a strangely reddish hue.
'I should give up on the bathhouse business. Even with modern products, I can't compete with Matap. There's no hope.'
The bathwater contained a special bath agent sold by Matap. It was made from some of the herbs used in potions. It not only boosts metabolism but also has various other beneficial effects like fatigue recovery, skin beautification, and enhanced recovery. It wasn't just talk; the effects were real.
'Ah, this feels good.'
I submerged myself up to my neck in the bath. This feeling couldn't be replicated in the small tub at home.
And most importantly, this wasn't a public bathhouse where everyone used the same water. After I used the bath, the servants would refill it with fresh water. This bath, large enough to swim in, was for one person only.
'This is an absurd luxury. I love it.'
Including the bath agent, the cost was roughly around 2 million nerl.
A single bath cost the monthly income of a commoner. Just thinking about it made me shiver with pleasure.
'This is amazing.'
I truly was noble material.
I glanced to the side and looked at Yuria. She seemed uncomfortable in the bath, sitting upright with her back straight. I observed her face and hair.
'Even upon second glance, her hair color is beautiful. Her face is slim and pretty, and her eyes are blue... Hmm?'
I lowered my gaze. My proud member was slowly stretching.
'...Did I just feel lust for Yuria's face?'
It might have been influenced by the fact that I was in the hot spring. The steam blurred my vision, and some mental adjustment seemed to have taken place.
"Yuria."
"Yes, master."
"Come here."
"Yes."
At my gesture, she approached without a word.
Yuria was different from Lexi, my former personal maid. She had no backing. She had given herself to me, and though there was no official certificate, she was no different from a slave. Even if I were to take advantage of her here, nothing would come of it.
'As long as no one finds out.'
But looking at her skinny body, I had no desire to do so.
"Yuria, your assistance with the bath earlier was excellent."
"Thank you."
"So, I'll reward you."
I reached out with my right hand, grabbed the back of Yuria's head, and pulled her toward me. I covered her lips with mine and slipped my tongue inside. I fully utilized the kissing techniques I had accumulated over time. Additionally, I used a skill to heighten her sensitivity.
"Mmm…"
Yuria's pupils shook, revealing her emotional turmoil. It seemed she didn't know how to respond to the sexual pleasure she was experiencing for the first time.
'She's not moving her tongue at all. Well, that's fine. I can train her slowly.'
I recalled Choi Sun-mi, the vampire detective. I thought she would betray me, but she never did. After some training, she became completely immersed in pleasure and entered a state of absolute obedience to me.
I played with Yuria's tongue for a while before pulling away. Her face was slightly red, but her expression remained blank. I'd have to do something about that blank expression too.
"Yuria, what should you do after receiving a reward?"
"Th-thank you, master."
"Good."
I tapped her shoulder as a sign of praise.
'She only has one erogenous zone. Maybe I'll develop about five more.'
Through Choi Sun-mi, I learned that the number of erogenous zones could be increased. The method wasn't difficult either. By persistently targeting them using Sexual Arousal, it was possible.
I stared into Yuria's eyes and asked.
"As you know, the Ferek bandits attacked Artel village to kill you and your mother. The Helbrit family claimed to have found traces of your mother. Do you have any idea where those traces might have been left?"
The Ferek bandits were certain that Nell Rins was in Artel village. There must have been a reason for that.
Yuria thought for a moment before speaking.
"Two months ago, a merchant came to the village."
"Two months ago… That timeline makes sense. Did Nell Rins trade with the merchant?"
"Yes. Essential supplies were occasionally purchased from the visiting merchant."
"Aside from the merchant, who else entered Artel village?"
"No one. The villagers are all fugitives. Criminals or people shunned by society. Once they enter the village, they never leave."
"The merchant is definitely the cause."
Even Nell Rins wouldn't have thought that the merchant would recognize her true identity. She had disguised herself to some extent, after all. It wasn't her mistake but rather incredibly bad luck.
Considering that this world is from a novel, it could also be called fate.
"Does the merchant know your face?"
"I don't know. I hid in the house and watched from a distance. When I left the house, I always covered myself with cloth, pretending to be a castaway. Even the villagers don't know my face."
"We'll have to catch that merchant."
"Huh?"
"It's highly likely that the merchant sold Nell Rins' information to the Helbrit family. He could be considered your target for revenge. You haven't forgotten our deal, have you?"
Yuria had given everything to me, and I was fully committed to helping her with her revenge. Our agreement would remain in place until her revenge was completely fulfilled. Only after her revenge was complete would she truly become mine.
Yuria looked surprised at my words. Her eyes widened, and her mouth slightly opened. It wasn't that she lacked expressions; she was just unskilled at showing her emotions.
"…No. I haven't forgotten. I will never… forget."
Yuria spoke resolutely. I nodded and asked again.
"Do you know the merchant's name or what he looks like?"
"His name is Galmer, and I heard his left eye is completely white."
"Cataracts, huh."
In modern times, it's a common condition, and surgery isn't difficult.
"We'll investigate first and then capture him."
With his name and distinguishing features, finding him shouldn't be too hard.
"Shall we head out now?"
"Yes."
A few days later, Elaine caught me bathing with Yuria. The maid in charge of the bath had accidentally seen us and reported it to Elaine. Elaine took measures to ensure the incident didn't become gossip.
I got an earful from Elaine. Her reasoning was that bathing with a young woman wasn't appropriate. She was probably concerned about Hassent, as Yuria was known to be under Hassent's care.
I pretended to reflect on it.
…Well, I did reflect a little.
Next time, I won't get caught so carelessly.

Yuria and I returned to the room from the bath. She seemed a bit awkward in the maid uniform she was wearing for the first time. She said it was the first time she had ever worn such pretty clothes.
"M-Master?"
Yuria was flustered as I began to take off all my clothes.
"You take yours off too."
"...Yes."
Yuria answered resolutely and began to remove the maid uniform she had just put on. I could guess what she was thinking, but that wasn't the reason.
We were both naked. I sat on the bed, and Yuria stood in front of me, within arm's reach.
Using my hacking skill, I activated the cameras installed around the room. I also had a camera in my hand. I recorded Yuria's naked body and my own.
"Good. Yuria, from now on, we're going to have a growth competition."
"...Huh?"
"We'll compete to see who grows faster. We'll record and compare our progress every day for ten days."
I know myself well. I'd get bored of this eventually. The only things I never get bored of are computer games and sex.
I was confident of winning this competition. My highest stat, stamina, also affects growth rate. Stamina is essentially the body's vitality and metabolism. The fact that I had grown about 3 cm in the past month was one reason for my confidence.
And no matter how much talent one has, it's separate from growth.
"If you win, I'll give you a gift."
"I have nothing to offer you, master."
"It's fine. I'll gain some mental satisfaction from it."
I stood side by side with Yuria in front of the camera. My body, though not muscular, was well-proportioned. And down there, it was so impressive that one might believe it belonged to an adult.
Yuria was taller than me, by about 20 cm. Her pink nipples were slightly erect. I wasn't sure if it was because of the cold air or if she was excited from being naked.
There was no hair on her pubic area. I had shaved it earlier in the bath. I had also shaved mine. For the growth competition, we would record and compare every part of our bodies.
"Hehe. I'm looking forward to ten days from now."
"...."
Yuria seemed to look at me as if I were strange.
Hmm. Must be my imagination.
After meticulously recording both of our bodies, I decided to teach her how to masturbate.
"This is called clitoral masturbation."
I didn't teach her with my own hands but instead used a beam projector to display a video on a screen on one side of the wall. It was an video.
[Ahh! Eugene! Hng! Eugene! Please put your big cock in me! Please!]
The star of the video was Choi Sun-mi.
She was passionately touching her clitoris and masturbating. I had over 100 videos of her masturbating.
Yuria was watching the video with her mouth slightly open. She must have been quite shocked.
'Well, it is a bit vulgar.'
She probably couldn't understand Korean, but Choi Sun-mi's moans, her flushed face, and the way she touched herself were undeniably vulgar.
'It brings back memories.'
From when I first watched porn.
No one taught me, but before I knew it, I was masturbating. It was almost instinctual. Even now, I remember the breasts and pussy of the woman in that video.
Taking the opportunity, I showed Yuria a sex video as well. Of course, the star was Choi Sun-mi. The video of her completely submitting to me would be helpful for Yuria.
The explicit porn ended. I gave Yuria a command.
"Try masturbating on the bed. Ah, no inserting fingers inside, though."
It would be a disaster if she lost her virginity from masturbating.
"…Yes. Understood."
Yuria sat on the bed and spread her legs toward me. Her tightly closed pink pussy was visible. She began slowly stimulating her clitoris with her right index finger.
'This is fun in its own way. I'll refrain from giving too much advice.'
I smiled and watched Yuria's first masturbation session.
"…Ugh."
Her already excited body quickly reached its climax. Yuria's body trembled. Throughout, Yuria remained expressionless. She even suppressed her moans. I preferred seeing a woman's expressive face and hearing her moans.
'She needs improvement.'
