Was Sung Yujin Prukerus's ?? supposed to be like this? His hands seem too small for that.
A mirror hung on the wall beside the bed. I got out of bed and looked into it.
There was a younger version of myself, with the same appearance as my childhood in reality except for my unnaturally pale skin.
For some reason, my body feels heavy.
I swung my arms and legs around to test my mobility.
"...Huh?!"
A sharp pain shot through my chest.
The sudden, unexpected agony forced me to collapse to the floor. My breath caught in my throat, and my vision blurred.
Congenital heart disease!
This was a setting Sung Yujin Prukerus had created, one I hadn't paid much attention to. I'd assumed my avatar's physical condition would be determined by my own stats, so I'd dismissed the heart disease as insignificant.
But more importantly...
Complete recovery!
The heart disease was gone.
My skin's complexion instantly improved, a healthy flush returning to my cheeks. My previously heavy body felt light and agile.
I swung my arms and legs again, just as I had before.
No problems.
I assumed a stance from the Youngcheon Style.
The Youngcheon Style works perfectly too. Even though my body has shrunk, I can still use my skills and traits properly.
I realized this time that the settings were truly affecting me.
The Genius Hacker setting from Vampire Detective didn't affect me.
I figured that was inevitable. I wasn't influenced by my avatar's knowledge, experience, memories, or personality. The only exception was knowledge of the language my avatar primarily used.
My knowledge of the common continental language of this world is fully integrated.
It was quite fascinating, considering this language didn't exist in reality.
Wait a minute... If my body has shrunk, that means my... my thing has shrunk too?!
Startled, I hastily pulled down my pants.
A perfectly smooth, hairless cock appeared. It was a miniaturized version of my real-world cock meaning it was circumcised.
It was quite large, and if fully erect, it would likely be bigger than the average Korean adult male's member.
"Heh," I chuckled, fondling my cock.
I knew two ways to calm myself down: fiddling with my smartphone and fondling my cock.
As my member began to stiffen, I withdrew my hand and picked up my phone.
"I'll check my sexual function later. First, let's see what about my stats.."
***
[Growth Penalty Applied. Stats Decreased.]
[The Growth Penalty reduces stats based on your growth progress.]
[Sung Yujin]
[Level: 30]
[]Strength: 6 (21) Stamina: 7 (21) Agility: 7 (22) Intelligence: 12 Vitality: 30]
***
My strength, stamina, and agility have decreased. Intelligence and Vitality remain unchanged. It must be because of my smaller body.
That was fine. I had no intention of pushing my body to its limits in this world anyway.
Intelligence aside, as long as my Vitality is properly applied, I'll be fine.
I could also use points to forcibly increase or decrease my body size. I resisted the immediate urge to use points to enlarge my genitals.
Hold back. Hold back. Even this size is enough to enjoy sex. And I have the Enhanced Sensitivity Skill, so...
I pulled up my pants and retrieved an item I had prepared from my inventory:
[A small Magic Power Generator.]
[This device generates electricity by using the magic power of Magic Crystal Stones, which are refined from Magic Stones, as fuel.]
It cost 700,000 won and was available online, eliminating the need to visit a Hunter Shop.
"For such a small device, its specifications are impressive. It outputs 30 kilowatts."
The downside is that it uses Magic Crystal Stones as fuel. A basic Magic Crystal Stone costs over 300,000 won.
"Since I splurged on a high-purity, 5 million won Magic Crystal Stone, it should last for several months."
Next, I pulled a box from my inventory.
It contained electronic devices, including a laptop.
"Why should I endure the inconveniences of this fantasy world?"
I placed the eavesdropping devices and ultra-compact cameras I'd brought from the Vampire Detective world on the table and chuckled.
"These primitive fools know nothing about cameras. I could install them in plain sight and they wouldn't even notice."
Of course, I had no intention of actually installing the cameras in plain sight.
"To take over the Count's Household, you've got to go this far... Kua ha ha ha!"
The first thing I did was install a camera in my room.
It had been a month since I entered the world of "Plum Blossom Sword Saint".
During that time, I quietly focused on gathering information. The knowledge I had from the original work was ultimately just information about a distant future that hadn't yet come to pass.
There was so much I needed to learn the culture of this world, the etiquette of the nobility, everything.
First, I learned about my position as Sung Yujin Prukerus.
Born with congenital heart disease, I receive special consideration from most people. This is quite convenient, as they rarely reprimand me harshly even when I do strange things.
"The only restriction is on my movements."
Whenever I try to exercise or leave the mansion, the servants and knights stop me.
"It's fortunate that the Illusioner lasts for thirty minutes in this world."
I have two Illusioners, giving me a full hour of free movement. However, I need to be careful around knights and magicians, as their heightened senses might detect my presence.
"The camera was discovered midway, but I passed it off as a crude toy I'd made, and they let it go. The 'frail health' act is quite convenient. I should use it more often."
I glanced at the laptop on the table. Through the installed camera, I can monitor the mansion in real-time.
"The past month has been utterly uneventful. Pure, unadulterated peace. Damn it. I'm bored to death."
If I wasn't reading, there was absolutely nothing else to do.
At least I could still sneak peeks at the maids working in the mansion. Lately, I've been staring at the security cameras just to catch a glimpse of them.
Knock, knock, knock!
"Young Master Sung Yujin! I've brought your black tea!"
"Come in."
The door opened, and Lexi entered, dressed in her maid uniform. A young woman with brown hair and freckles, her full name was Lexi Elvis.
I can't afford to look down on the servants.
The servants working in the mansion were commoners, half of them children of the Prucus Family's retainers.
For a noble's personal servant like me, most were aristocrats themselves. Lexi, for instance, was the daughter of the Knight Commander.
Lexi placed a teapot, teacups, and snacks on the table.
"Wow~ Master Yujin's room is always so cool!"
Lexi glanced repeatedly at the air conditioner, which was working diligently.
Despite having seen it several times over the past month, she still reacted this way every time she visited. She clearly coveted the air conditioner.
"Master Yujin, could you make one for me too? Of course, I'll pay you properly!"
I had lied, claiming to have personally crafted all the electronic devices, including the air conditioner. After spinning an elaborate tale about ancient ruins and recovered texts, I had managed to convince her.
Even if she remained skeptical, it didn't matter. What could she do if I insisted I had made it?
In this world, status was everything, and within this mansion, only two people outranked me.
"I can't. I don't have the materials."
"If I get the materials, will you make it for me?"
"Why don't you just buy a magic tool? It'll probably be cheaper."
"Cold-type magic tools require constant replacement of magic stones, which costs too much."
I sipped my black tea. I didn't find it particularly delicious. Tea time was supposed to be about aristocratic refinement or something.
"Lexi, you're 22 this year, right?"
"Yes. Why do you ask?"
Lexi had already positioned herself right in front of the air conditioner.
"Aren't you getting married?"
"...No suitable marriage proposals have come my way," Lexi said with an awkward smile.
In this world, marriages happen quickly, as labor is a crucial resource.
"How about second brother?"
"Oh, come on. There's no way I could marry Young Master Kyle. I'm just a maid, and he's a direct descendant of the House of Prucus."
She was right.
Count Prucus, whose territory lay on the eastern border of the Kingdom of Rapelli, held power far exceeding that of a mere count. Even the king and dukes couldn't treat the Prucus family lightly.
Lexi's father was the Knight Commander, a noble of the first rank, making Lexi a commoner.
A commoner woman marrying the son of a great lord? By any normal standard, it was an impossible match.
"I was just asking. But are you really that hot?"
"Yes, it's so hot. Just standing outside for ten minutes makes sweat drip down my neck."
Lexi swished her large skirt.
I glanced at her pale legs and parted my lips slightly.
Does she even realize she's supposed to be my personal maid?
I could understand her treating me casually. I'd never acted authoritatively toward her, and my young appearance, coupled with my illness, naturally invited underestimation.
...Her father being the Knight Commander probably contributes too.
Just now, I caught a glimpse of her white panties.
I have to restrain myself. I have to restrain myself. I have to restrain myself.
Even if she's not my type, such blatant seduction would inevitably stir my desire.
I mustn't pounce on her here. She's the daughter of a retainer. I can't afford to make an enemy of the Knight Commander before my plans have even begun.
"Ah... It feels so good, Young Master," Lexi said, shivering slightly as she leaned against the air conditioner.
"..."
Her appearance stirred a carnal desire in me. My manhood stirred slightly. I stood up from my chair. I needed to suppress this urge in private.
"Master Yujin?"
"Ah, I'm just going to the restroom for a moment."
My room had a private bathroom attached. It had a proper toilet and running water a luxury unimaginable in a real medieval setting. But here, magic made anything possible.
"Is that so? Ah! Master Yujin! Wait a moment. Your clothes are disheveled."
Before I could stop her, she approached. The woman's subtle scent washed over me.
"It doesn't matter. We're not going outside anyway."
"No, Master Yujin. As a direct descendant of the Prucus Family, you must always maintain proper decorum. Besides, this is part of my job."
Lexi leaned forward, her hands smoothing my disheveled attire.
Her breasts were right in front of my eyes. The maid uniforms in this world, perhaps due to the author's preferences, exposed the upper part of the chest, including the collarbones and a sliver of shoulder.
A full B-cup.
Instinctively sizing them up, I deliberately let out a loud sigh.
"All done, Master Yujin."
"...Oh. Thank you."
I bowed slightly at the waist, subtly shifting my hips back to conceal my erection. I was a nobleman; maintaining my image was paramount.
I tried to pass Lexi, but my leg accidentally caught on hers as she shifted sideways. Blinded by lust, I made a mistake I would never normally make.
"Kyaaah?!"
Lexi and I tumbled to the ground in a heap. I deliberately put my weight on her, a primal instinct taking over.
My face buried itself in her firm breasts. I inhaled deeply, savoring the milky scent. Strangely, every woman's body odor was both similar and subtly different, yet all equally aroused me.
Ah, fuck. I can't hold back. Knight Commander? Aura Expert? Fuck that. If they get in my way, I'll just poison them.
With my left hand, I slipped my fingers into Lexi's cleavage, while my right hand lifted her skirt. White panties came into view.
"M-Master Yujin?!"
I immediately pulled down my pants, revealing my stiffly erect member. I pressed it against her white panties, feeling the soft warmth of her vulva through the thin fabric.
"I can't hold back any longer, Lexi. If you're my personal attendant, you should be taking care of my cock too."
I'd talked about preferences and all that, but Lexi was undeniably a beautiful woman.
Having her serve me in a maid outfit for a whole month? What a tantalizing situation.
In reality, the automatic progression had sped things up considerably, making it feel more like four days.
Regardless, I'd been holding back for far too long.
I reached under her clothes and pulled out one of her full breasts. The pink nipple was still soft, but that was fine. I had the Enhanced Sensitivity Skill.
Lexi Embis's erogenous zones: clitoris, calves
I already knew her erogenous zones. I felt sorry for Lexi, but I had no intention of giving her foreplay. I wanted to penetrate her immediately.
I reached for her panties. Guiding my hand by touch, I pulled the white fabric aside and aimed my glans.
"I'm going in."
"Aaaaaah! Slow down Master Yujin!"
Lexi yelled and shoved me away. She seemed to be surprised because it's too sudden.
My body flew through the air and landed heavily on the bed.
"Huh?"
I couldn't process what had just happened.
"Aaaaaah! I'm sorry."
She seemed panicked as she also surprised by how strong her push is..
Click!
Lexi yanked open the door, running as she fled.
"...Tch."
I realized things had gone wrong. Is she shy or what?
I should have talked first.
Then things wouldn't have gone sideways.
