Chapter 6 - Sojin (2)
Meanwhile, Sohye, who had gone out at Sojin’s request, hurried to the store.
“It’ll take about 30 minutes to get groceries…” she muttered to herself.
As she walked, her thoughts drifted back to what happened at home.
(So pale…)
Realizing she’d forgotten to give Silian a towel, Sohye had cracked open the bathroom door to hand it to him. In that brief moment, their hands brushed—a firm, strong hand, pale and smooth. The touch sent a shiver through her.
How could such flawless skin be marked with dark streaks?
(Must be from working in the mines), she reasoned.
In her 21 years, Sohye had never met a man like Silian. His height was unusually tall for a man in this world, and his physique was lean and muscular.
(And… so striking…)
She blushed, recalling his presence. Sohye wasn’t naive; she was familiar with adult content and had her own private moments. Her curiosity was natural.
(I tried not to stare, but… he’s so different…)
She hadn’t seen much, but her imagination filled in the gaps. Shaking her head, she focused on her shopping.
“Haa… I want to hurry back and see Silian oppa. How much has he changed?” she thought, a shy smile forming as she filled her basket.
Unbeknownst to her, someone was witnessing a private moment unfolding nearby.

I reached out, my heart racing with anticipation.
*Tap*
A hand stopped me.
“Nnh… w-wait, hold on…” Sojin said, her eyes hazy as she tried to sit up.
Puzzled, I wondered if I’d misread her. “Uh… what’s wrong? Are you okay?”
“No, no! It’s not that!” she said, shaking her head. Hesitantly, she glanced at me. “It’s just… you seem… uncomfortable…”
I noticed her eyes flickering downward. My towel was tight, and my reaction to her was obvious.
*‘Is it… that noticeable?’*
I couldn’t see clearly under the towel, but I needed to know. Propping myself up, I knelt in front of Sojin, unintentionally drawing her attention.
It made sense. Being close to a beautiful woman like Sojin, instead of being alone, was overwhelming.
*Twitch*
Sojin flinched, her eyes fixed on me. Nervously, she asked, “Um… can I… look closer?”
The towel was barely holding on.
“Sure,” I said, my voice steady.
Sojin’s hands trembled as she reached for the towel, her eyes meeting mine as if seeking permission.
(Do men here get shy about this?) I wondered, noting her caution.
*Rustle*
She struggled with the towel, my reaction making it difficult to untie.
“Ha…” Sojin froze, her eyes wide.
(Is this… real?)
*Thump thump thump*
Her heartbeat raced. She stared, captivated, as she gently tugged the towel aside.
It was unlike anything she’d seen before—impressive and striking.
(This… it’s so different…)
As it brushed her cheek, she stayed still, her expression softening. Her eyes grew hazier, a faint glow in her pupils. I blinked, unsure if I was imagining it.
“Haa…” She inhaled deeply, as if drawn to me.
I couldn’t take it anymore. “Sojin, are you just going to look?”
She snapped out of her daze, startled. “Uh?! N-No, I… um, can I… touch it?”
Her hesitation puzzled me. Was she just being cautious?
“Sure,” I said simply.
Her hand reached out, trembling.
*Stroke…*
Her touch was gentle at first, careful.
“Sojin… a bit firmer…” I said, my voice low.
She nodded, her grip tightening slightly. “Like… this?”
*Stroke stroke…*
Her movements were skilled, confident.
“Perfect, Sojin…” I said, relaxing into her touch.
She smiled, pleased. “I’ll make you feel even better.”
*Kiss*
She leaned in, her lips brushing against me softly.
“Nh…”
A jolt ran through me. Her touch was warm, teasing, and precise, like she knew exactly what to do.
I tilted my head back. (Is she experienced?)
In elf society, such skills were boasted about. How could she be so good?
Unbeknownst to me, this world had the internet a vast source of knowledge. But having been here less than a day, I was unaware, focused only on the moment.
“Nh…”
She continued, her movements deliberate, glancing up to gauge my reaction. A surge of emotion hit me.
I stroked her head, feeling a sense of connection. The urge to release grew.
“Sojin… I’m close…” I warned, recalling a story from elf society about respecting boundaries.
But she didn’t stop. Instead, she held me closer, her eyes twinkling with intent.
“Ugh…!”
*Spurt…*
“Nh?!”
It was intense. Sojin’s eyes widened as she handled it gracefully.
*Drip…*
Some spilled, marking her gently.
Her cheeks flushed as she managed the moment, swallowing softly.
“S-Sojin, you didn’t have to…” I stammered.
“Phaa…” She exhaled, her eyes meeting mine, a shy smile forming.
The sight was captivating. I gently pushed her down, her posture open, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Her gaze was unmistakable, filled with desire. I moved closer, ready to continue.
*Step step step*
Footsteps broke the silence.
My half-elf hearing caught them first. Sojin hadn’t noticed, tilting her head at my pause.
“Sojin, how long has Sohye been gone?” I asked urgently.
Her eyes widened, checking her phone. “Uh… about 25 minutes…”
*Step step… clunk.*
The footsteps stopped at the door.
Sojin’s face paled. “W-What do we do…?”
She was panicking, her earlier excitement replaced by fear.
“Sojin, snap out of it! Clean up with this!” I handed her the towel.
*Click*
The front door opened.
“Unnie! Oppa! I’m back!” Sohye’s voice rang out, with the rustle of grocery bags.
Sojin moved quickly, her speed surprising.
*Crash*
She tripped, falling off the bed.
Hearing the noise, Sohye called, “Unnie? Are you in your room?”
*Rustle rustle*
Her footsteps approached, bags crinkling. Sojin’s eyes shook, frozen in panic.
