In a World Where Chastity is Reversed, I Ended Up Working as a Hot Spring Attendant - Chapter 171-172

Chapter 171: The Reason Why Suzume Got the Habit of Going Back to Sleep and Hugging After Sex

(I did it…)

I couldn’t help but mutter to myself under the covers. It was still dark outside, so rather than dawn, it was probably still night.

I glanced at the digital clock at the edge of my vision—3 AM. Still early.

Right now, I’m in Hisui-san’s room, all three of us huddled under the covers.

Thanks to Tsumugi-mother-in-law’s meddling, my first night was successfully completed, and I became a full-grown woman, but…

(It doesn’t feel real.)

There are plenty of things proving it happened—like the lingering sensation of something filling my stomach, the slight pain that’s still there—but still.

(Now that it’s over, it was kind of anticlimactic.)

All the things I was terrified of before—now, they feel as insignificant as a scrap of paper. Completely meaningless.

(What was I so afraid of?)

The fear of men that used to take up so much space in my head, the distrust—I can’t even remember it anymore.

I once read somewhere that a woman’s memories of love are overwritten, and when something big happens, the old ones disappear in an instant. So this is what they meant…

(Is this what they call an icebreaker, a thawing of the ice?)

I knew the phrase, but this is way too dramatic.

By the way, after I was done, when Tsumugi-mother-in-law tried to leave, I instinctively grabbed her and held her back. Because of that, Hisui-san ended up going at it even longer—I remember hearing that vaguely as I drifted off to sleep.

The third time was quite long, and they were flirting the whole time. Half-asleep, I thought, “That looks nice,” and realized my mindset had completely changed from just a few hours ago.

(Yata-Grandma once said that a virgin becomes a different person before and after.)

I laughed it off as nonsense, but… am I really thinking like a different person now? Or was this always part of me?

I can’t tell myself. If I asked Tsumugi-mother-in-law, she’d probably just laugh and say, “You’ve always been like this.”

(I mean, I do like being spoiled, right? Anytime is fine, you know?)

She used to say that a lot, but I always just laughed, saying, “I’m not the type to cling to people.”
And yet, now, when I picture someone holding their arms out, the face I see is Hisui-san’s.

(Isn’t it more romantic to say love changes a person?)

But wait… am I in love? If someone asked, I wouldn’t know how to answer.

I still don’t know.

I just got a seed in my belly, so I’m just giving birth, that’s all.

—Suuu, suuu…

“Nn…”

A slightly different sound mixed with the quiet breathing, so I turned to look.

(They’re so close…)

It was still dark, but not pitch black. My eyes had adjusted, so I could see well enough.
The two of them were stuck together, still asleep.

(Is that the normal distance after doing it?)

They were so close, but I still felt far away.

Even though we were under the same covers, the fact that I wasn’t clinging to anyone made a tiny gap between us. That small space scared me.

I was the one who held Tsumugi-mother-in-law back, but for some reason, I felt irritated.

(Oh… So that’s why she tried to slip away, to avoid getting in the way…)

I finally understood that it was out of consideration.

(Well, it’s too late now!)

Shiver.

(I’m a little cold.)

With three people under the covers, I could feel the draft seeping in. It made me shiver weirdly.
Even though the seasons were getting warmer and the room was well-insulated, with the air conditioner running to keep it from getting cold… I still felt cold.

(I’m cold… so… this is fine, right?)

Making that excuse in my head, I slowly inched toward Hisui-san who was still sleeping.

Trying to make it as natural as possible…

Without making it obvious…

Closing the distance little by little…

Pretending I was just cold and half-asleep, seeking warmth, I wrapped my arms around her.

Who would even be watching this entire process?

Most likely, everything was being fully recorded by surveillance cameras in the next room. It’d probably be used as drinking party entertainment or even… material for other things. That was the unspoken rule and tradition between legal wives.

I might even end up watching it myself later!

If I looked ridiculous, I’d probably die of embarrassment!

I could refuse completely if I wanted to, and no one was allowed to interfere, but it was all under the assumption that we’d be watched.

While making all these excuses in my head, I clung to Hisui-san’s body.

His warmth slowly seeped into me.

It felt so nice that I surrendered to have a second sleep, letting my consciousness fade.

“Nfuh.”

As I drifted off, I thought I heard a quiet chuckle mixed into someone’s breathing.

Tsumugi: “Suzume-chan is so obvious, it’s adorable.”

Chapter 172: Tsumugi’s First Day

“I failed to escape.”

I look with a wry smile, feeling like “tahaha.”

By the way, Suzume-chan, who desperately tried to hold me back, is already breathing peacefully in her sleep. Maybe she’s exhausted after cumming so much.

Honestly, Suzume-chan is still such a kid, huh? I stroke her head with that feeling and send her a loving gaze.

So, here’s how it went down: I was kind of like the support crew for Suzume-chan’s first night. We were all drinking and listening in, using her newbie stories as a snack to go with the booze. But it started looking like Suzume-chan wouldn’t be able to graduate properly at this rate, so I couldn’t help but barge in.

Hisui-san was way too gentle, and Suzume-chan was way too shy. And even though she had some trauma, she was overly scared. Hisui-san was being too considerate.

“This is taking a while, huh?”

“A slow counseling course until tomorrow?”

“Even if we’re saving up ammo, it’s such a waste, right?”

“Just sleeping together until tomorrow?”

“It’s luxurious in a way, but…”

“There’s a difference between choosing not to eat and not being able to eat because of trauma, huh?”

“It sure looked painful, though.”

“That modded part—even a masked rider got pretty damn excited about it. It’s handy and a favorite, you know?”

“It’s an old story, but maybe we should just force that last step?”

“At this rate, she’ll definitely flaunt her virginity later, right?”

“Way too much of a waste.”

“No way you can get pregnant just by sleeping together, huh?”

“Oh well, shall I go for it?”

“Go for it! Good luck!”

“Have a good one!”

With that vibe, the peanut gallery was throwing out comments. Since I’m next in line and the distance feels neutral, I barged in without ruffling feathers.

Alright, today’s quota was achieved.

Congrats on graduating, huh?

I strike a mental guts pose. Now I can leave the rest to the young couple.

So, while gently patting Suzume-chan’s head, I tried to slip away. But she grabbed me way more firmly than I expected.

I could shake her off if I wanted to.

It would’ve been the ideal flow to exit smoothly, but…

“I messed up my escape.”

I mutter that with a wry smile.

I can’t deny I had some ulterior motives.

“Was this against your will?”

Hisui-san asks with a slight hint of worry.

“No way?”

chu…

“If anything, it’s a grand slam.”

I smile after lightly pressing my lips to hers and continue.

By the way, Suzume-chan, who was silently clinging to me earlier, had already passed out. Probably from the exhaustion of cumming so much.

“Giving her the spotlight would boost her self-esteem, right?”

“Should’ve eased her into it first, huh?”

“It did feel a bit high-difficulty.”

I droop my head slightly with a mix of reflection and a sigh.

“Well, showing her the ropes in action will make her better in bed, so it’s got its pros and cons, right?”

“She’s asleep, though…”

Suzume-chan had been breathing peacefully since earlier.

The AC is on, so she won’t get cold even naked, but I’ll toss a blanket over her for now.

“If we team up, we’ve got five more days. Let’s take it slow.”

The bedroom’s a place with or without a script—naked body language between men and women, a serious showdown.

Teaching her would be pretty tough.

How to seduce, how to touch, the push-and-pull to be loved—there’s a mountain of stuff I’d actually like to teach her.

“Teaching, or maybe a motherly perspective, seems kinda rough, huh?”

“Misago-chan and Hachikuma-chan are nicely perverted, so I wasn’t worried about them.”

“Suzume-san does seem pretty shy, huh?”

“Glad you get it.”

“It’s fine, though? Three people, three styles; ten people, ten colors—all different, all good. It’s got some charm.”

“By the way, realistically, can you go again? Can you cum? You’re not pushing it?”

I say that while scooting closer.

“Today hasn’t been too wild, so I should be good for one more round.”

“For an average guy, once a day is already insane stamina. Once every three days is the 20s average, you know?”

So, it’s plenty wild.

“If you put it like that, I’ll end up in the monster category.”

Hisui-san grins with a “heh heh heh~.”

Honestly, I knew it, but he’s so defenseless at this distance.

chu

I press my lips to his, tangle our tongues, hug him, and slowly push him down. No resistance at all.

“So, shall we take it slow?”

I pull away and can’t help but lick my lips dreamily.

As for me, it’s a rare chance, so I’ve got no intention of wasting it.

In this combo, Tsumugi-san’s the top.
