Chapter 99: Seductive

"... Is something really going on? (≖_≖)"

At that moment, because of the obvious nervousness in my voice, she—who had been relaxing—startled and turned around abruptly to look at me suspiciously.

Hahah! That look somehow gets me excited.

Her gaze was menacing, and I feel like someone who actually felt guilty or ashamed would crumble under the pressure, but for some reason, I liked it.

Anyway, I couldn’t let a smile slip out, so I pretended I couldn’t stand her gaze and spoke up.

"A-about that, I’m a little embarrassed to say it, but Miss Azalea is one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen, and—and honestly, I-a..."

"You? You what?! Speak clearly."

"I can’t help but admire her beauty and noble aura; it actually makes me a little nervous....A-and I sense a kind of expectation in her gaze that I’m not sure I can live up to."

"...Is that all?"

"Huh? What do you mean? Should there be something else?"

"(≖_≖)... No, it’s nothing. Continue with the massage."

Although she still seemed dissatisfied with my answer—which wasn’t what she’d expected—she lay back down on her stomach.

"Miss Silvia, may I ask? Did I do something wrong? And I don’t just mean now—ever since we met, you’ve seemed a little hostile toward me."

"...Haaah~. No, don’t read too much into it. It’s just the way I am. I’ll try not to keep doing it, but, getting back to the questions—this might be a bit personal—but earlier, with your wife, I noticed your attitude toward her was a bit cold, and you even seemed to barely be able to stand her. Do you two not get along?"

"Hmm, well, that’s definitely something I’d consider a very personal question, Miss Silvia."

"I thought so. So, you won’t answer?"

"Hmm... well, I don’t want any misunderstandings, so I’ll tell you that I love my wife very much. What I said earlier is just because it bothers me a little that she doesn’t know how to serve customers properly. Even though I tell her over and over again, she doesn’t learn. I’m sure she made you very uncomfortable, didn’t she?"

"Well, I won’t deny that. By the way, you sounded very confident when you said you love her—aren’t you worried she might hear you?"

Well, obviously she was referring to Lea. I can sense that, by this point, she already has a different idea of what’s going on than she did when she first arrived.

But she seems to be cautious and thorough by nature, and I suppose she won’t let the subject drop until the end of the session.

But her question didn’t make any sense.

Anyway, by this point Azalea was probably asleep, and even if she wasn’t, she has those noise-canceling earplugs.

And even if she did hear me, it doesn’t matter, since...

"Huh? Why would it matter? Actually, Lea, last time she brought up my wife too, and I said the same thing. She knows I love my wife very much. I told her that over and over."

"R-really? And even if she, ahem!, are you really not lying? Just to make yourself look good?"

"Huh? I don’t understand why you’d think that. Hmm, now that I think about it, just like you, Lea was very persistent about that topic, and I had to make it clear to her over and over again. I wonder why it seems so hard to believe. I don’t think I treated Iris that badly, did I?"

"Don’t worry, you didn’t... Hmm, so she was persistent too, huh?... After all, that’s just how things are... Anyway, you know she’s a married woman with a daughter, right?"

"Ah! I knew she was married, but this is the first time I’ve heard about a daughter."

"Oh! So she didn’t tell you about that..."

That really took me by surprise. I didn’t expect Azalea to actually have a daughter.

Anyway, aside from that surprising piece of information, Silvia kept talking about Azalea. She mentioned things like her age, her bad attitude, and stuff like that.

Her intention was clear: to scare me off if I had any ulterior motives regarding Lea.

It’s obvious that the two of them are good friends; she doesn’t want Azalea to go down the wrong path and is doing everything she can to prevent it.

Exposing her friend’s dirty laundry seems like a small sacrifice for the greater good.

Hmm~ Let’s see if I can get Lea’s fetish by chance, huehue~

Unfortunately for her, her intention may be something else, but in reality, she’s giving me a lot of valuable personal information that I don’t plan on wasting; in fact, it’s a big help in strengthening my relationship with Lea,

Besides, every now and then she would ask me trick questions, and other times she would change the subject to make me let my guard down; she was trying to test me and see if there were any flaws in anything I said.

It’s like playing cat and mouse.

It’s fun to drop red herrings and watch her start to draw and believe her own conclusions.

Les might run into problems later, but I know she can handle them.

Anyway, the important thing was to make sure Silvia has a good impression of me now and doesn’t hesitate to come back in the future.

I haven’t confirmed yet that Lesis the way to get the skill, so I have to be careful—losing Silvia as a client isn’t an option...

..

.

"All right, Miss Silvia, I’m going to move down a bit and focus on your legs."

"Okay. Oh! By the way, you don’t have to be so formal with me either. I’m in servitude too, and I know how annoying it can be. And we’re both commoners, so just ’Silvia’ is fine."

"Oh! I’ll keep that in mind. I always make sure to do everything I can to make the experience as comfortable as possible for my clients."

No problem—and dodging her cute behind—I moved down and focused my massage on her thighs.

I won’t lie, Silvia was beautiful, and although not as voluptuous as Azalea, she certainly had her own charm.

Obviously, it wasn’t easy for me to ignore her completely—she also had a pleasant scent that stirred up a bit of nostalgia in me.

I really wanted to spice things up and see how far I could go, but that wasn’t the right path to take.

It’s a good thing Silvia doesn’t let out seductive moans and that the yukata is thicker—otherwise, my rationality would start to crumble, and temptation might make me lose control.

Anyway, keeping the conversation going with her really helped distract me from these thoughts.

This might end without any major incidents, and everything would go as I’d planned—or so I thought until...

"Mngh!~💕 Ahhh~❤️"

"S-Silvia."

"Ah!~, don’t get the wrong idea, hmm... I think it’s because I’ve been standing for so long, hmmm~. Oh, and they’re sensitive, mmm~. I don’t know, I don’t want to think about it—just keep going. This feels like heaven~💕"

Yeah, everything was going fine until I got to her feet.

She, who had been chatting with me calmly and letting out the occasional little moan, suddenly started letting out seductive moans.

It seemed like Silvia’s feet were some kind of extremely sensitive spot for her, and to make matters worse, I realized that at some point her yukata was starting to come undone and might dangerously reveal something I shouldn’t see.

That’s why you should never think you’ve won until the very end.

This could get really dangerous... Huehue, and that’s exactly what makes it exciting.

Moments Earlier (Iris’s POV)

*****

’ue~. Just as I thought, the store might have things it didn’t have before. Hue~. This is interesting—obviously, I’m going to buy it. Latex and seduction go hand in hand.

"b-big sister!"

Ah, right. I mustn’t neglect my sweet Amy.

She must be a little confused, though I also need to scold her a bit.

It’s not good for my heart if what she did happens again.

"Amy, now that we’re alone, I have to tell you that I’m actually a little disappointed that you ran off like that."

"/_ \I’m sorry."

"And you should be. My heart nearly stopped when I didn’t see you, and you know that, since I was the last one to see you, if they found out, it would be really bad for me."

"I-I..."

"Haaah~. Well, I really don’t want to scold you, my sweet Amy. This big sister is hurting inside too, you know? But I want you to understand that what you did wasn’t right.... You get it now, right?"

"Yes, I made a big mistake, sister /_ \. I just wanted to come for a moment and—"

"Yeah, I know what you wanted to do. Anyway, it’s wrong, but look, it’s not like I’m forbidding you from coming. But let’s do it this way: the next time you want to come over, you have to give me a reason and a plan for what you might do. If you convince me, I might even help you out and cover for you during your little escapade."

"R-Really!"

"Yes. After all, as your older sister, I’m always here to help you. Next time, I’d appreciate it if you trusted me more."

"Yes, big sister. I won’t do it like that again. I’ll convince you next time."

"Good, that’s the spirit. Now, you don’t want a massage from me, do you? After all, you get massages from me every day. And you came here to ’use’ my husband and get a lesson from him."

"Yeah... it’s too bad he’s busy/_ \"

"I understand, but just for you, Amy, I’m going to convince him to switch places with me. I’ll handle those two clients, and he’ll take care of you and give you the lesson you want."

"Really?!"

Oh, she went from being sad and regretful to cheering up right away. Her ears are particularly cute and expressive.

I really feel like petting them.

And I don’t see why I should hold back, so I happily walked over and reached out my hand toward her head.

They’re soft as always.

"(＾∀＾)hee~. Of course I will—this reliable big sister will make it happen, but hmm..."

"I-Is something wrong?"

At that moment, as I stroked her ears and told her to trust me, my confidence wavered a little, giving way to a hint of doubt, which made her worry.

Maybe I was afraid that the plan I’d just come up with wouldn’t work.

"Nothing’s wrong, but you know, Amy, just like last time, the goal is to seduce him with your charms and make him fall head over heels for you so he’ll give you all the love and pleasure he can, right?"

"Yes. I’ll do my best and seduce him, so he’ll be all mine and won’t want anyone but me!"

"￣へ￣"

I don’t think I taught her that last part. I should have also taught her to share, but oh well—it’s the attitude that counts.

"Did I say something wrong?"

"Nah! I was just blown away by your great attitude. What I was getting at is that you should know my husband made it easy last time, right? Even if you did the same with your husband, it probably still wouldn’t work, because just once doesn’t mean you’re already an experienced, seductive woman, right?"

"Yes, big sister, that’s why I thought I needed more lessons—I need more experience."

"That’s my Amy. That was a very smart conclusion."

I gave her a little pat on the ears for her excellent conclusion.

"Hehe! Big sis."

I can’t believe this cutie in front of me is the mother of someone like Momo. Something must be wrong.

Yeah, the problem was probably her husband—those genes must have ruined her. Luckily, Shiro and Scarlet turned out okay.

Well, that aside, it was time to check in a bit on her progress.

"Okay, but now that it’s the second lesson, my husband might act tougher and be harder to seduce, so it could be more difficult—and you might even fail to seduce him, since I won’t be there to help you anymore."

"Ah! /_ \, that’s right. If I can’t seduce him, we can’t make love, and I can’t gain experience as a seductress... Big sis! What do I do if I can’t pull it off?"

"Well, that’s what I was getting at. Look, seduction is a very complex and broad topic, and there are many ways to achieve it, though it also depends a lot on the person’s tastes. Hmm... there’s a way to make it a little easier for you to seduce my husband."

"What is it?! I’ll do it!"

"Wait, calm down. I’m a little hesitant because it might work for my husband, but not for yours. Still, do you want to hear it?"

"Yes!"

"Do you really want to know? But why would you want to? How would it benefit you to know something my husband likes but yours doesn’t? You have to remember that my husband is just a ’practice subject,’ nothing more, nothing less. Or are you thinking of something else about him?"
