Regression Guidelines For the Supporting Character-Chapter 268

The ease in his touch only made me more anxious.

Honestly, I preferred how he was acting just a moment ago—impatient and flustered. When someone’s emotionally unstable, there’s at least a chance you can talk them down.

But this... this wasn’t that.

This was a very bad sign. I was scared something might seriously happen if this continued.

Rip—!

“...!”

The sharp sound that stabbed through my ears made me flinch on reflex.

Like it was just a piece of tissue, the shirt tore easily in Cha Sahyeon’s hands and fell to the floor.

'Shit, that scared me.'

Because I couldn’t see behind me, every move he made felt that much more intense.

“Hyung, why are you trembling?”

Cha Sahyeon asked as he looked at my trembling shoulders and hands.

“Are you scared?”

Well, I’m pinned down under the Catastrophe. Wouldn’t anyone be scared?

Just in case, I answered in the most gloomy, downcast voice I could manage.

“...Yeah, I’m scared. So please let me go, okay?”

“Wait. I’ll let you go after I finish applying the medicine.”

Damn it.

Didn’t work at all. Where the hell did this kid get such a stubborn streak?

I heard the sound of a cap being twisted off after Cha Sahyeon stepped away. Then, a hand smeared with thick, white ointment came close.

He started with my upper shoulder.

His hand gently spread the ointment over the wound and moved to the back of my neck. The medicated area stung and burned, but his touch was so careful that it was bearable.

As he focused on applying the medicine, a calm stillness settled over the bedroom.

He applied the ointment thoroughly across my back. He was so earnest that he didn’t play around even once for more than ten minutes. Watching him made me feel embarrassed instead.

'Seriously? Was he really just trying to help me?'

It was hard to keep being suspicious. The way he applied the ointment was so clean and clinical.

He only applied it to the injured areas, gently rubbed it in, and then moved on with deliberate seriousness. It made me feel like I’d be the rude one if I asked him to stop.

'I misjudged him. He’s perfectly normal.'

At this point, I couldn’t help but reflect.

Cha Sahyeon was just genuinely worried about me. And here I was, thinking my completely normal little brother was some kind of pervert.

'Come on. As if Sahyeon would ever act like that. I put so much care into raising him.'

When you think about it, it’s obvious. What would Cha Sahyeon even know?

When he was a kid with no memories, I raised him myself. Even after he got his memories back, he said he’d wandered without a place to call home. There’s no way he could’ve learned anything sexual.

'His kiss was pretty clumsy too...'

Taking that into account, he clearly had little to no experience.

He even once told me not to go out and meet girls, didn’t he? That probably means he’s a bit conservative in temperament.

'Hmm. That’s actually kind of cute.'

My mind eased, and my body relaxed.

As long as nothing weird happened, I’d welcome this kind of help with open arms. Like Sahyeon said, there were injuries I genuinely couldn’t reach on my own.

“Hyung, your back’s done. I’ll apply some to your front too, so sit up.”

On top of that, he even untied my hands once I stopped resisting!

Turns out I was suspicious for no reason and ended up freaking out over nothing. Regretfully, I sat up.

If I lay down right away, the ointment on my back would smear all over the sheets, so I sat facing Sahyeon. While he’d been applying it to my back, he seemed to regain his usual calm and now squeezed out more ointment with a neutral expression.

'But... shouldn’t I be able to apply it to the front myself?'

The thought occurred to me, but honestly, I’d rather just sit still than risk pushing back and getting slammed into the bed again.

After finishing the remaining wounds on my arms and chest, Cha Sahyeon pulled out another ointment.

“I also bought one for bruises.”

You were the one who pressed so hard and caused the bruises. Now you’re applying ointment? What kind of twisted logic is that?

...I wanted to say that, but I didn’t have the guts right now.

“Wow, Sahyeon, you’re so thorough!”

I grinned and buttered him up. Cha Sahyeon’s cheeks flushed pink.

You like that? Well, if it makes you happy, I’m happy too. Just please let me finish getting treated /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ and put on some damn clothes.

The areas where the venom had splashed were only about coin-sized, but my side, where I got smacked by that giant spider leg, was covered in a huge, multi-colored bruise.

So the area that needed ointment was wide. I was the one injured, but Cha Sahyeon looked like he was in pain, frowning hard as he applied the ointment.

It was a bit surreal. That super serious expression of his was kind of funny.

Now completely relaxed, I reached up and pressed down on the frown between his brows.

“Why do you look like that while applying ointment?”

“Because it looks like it hurts.”

“If you’re this gentle, it doesn’t hurt—it tickles.”

“Tickles?”

“You’re rubbing my side like this. Of course it tickles.”

Startled, Cha Sahyeon’s fingers pressed just a tiny bit harder. That only made it tickle more.

Ha— I couldn’t help but burst out laughing, and his eyes lit up as he looked at me. Not even blinking, he suddenly gripped my side tightly.

“Ah, ah—! Hey, that hurts—”

The bruise got pressed, and a sharp jolt of pain shot through me. I yelped—only for our lips to crash together.

His lips parted mine, and his tongue shoved in without hesitation. It wasn’t skillful—he just bit and swept through my mouth. It was desperate.

“Ugh, ah...!”

My bitten lips throbbed, and I couldn’t think straight.

I reflexively leaned back, but Cha Sahyeon grabbed my waist with both hands and pulled me in hard.

My weight shifted backward, and my legs slipped underneath me. I couldn’t hold myself up and ended up falling onto the bed.

'What the hell is turning you on right now?'

He didn’t let up. His lips stayed locked on mine, giving me no chance to breathe.

“Wait, haah...!”

At some point, Cha Sahyeon’s thigh slipped between mine and started pressing and grinding against a sensitive spot.

This bastard... he was clearly copying what happened last time in the Great Dungeon.

'I’m losing my mind...!'

I tried shoving him off with everything I had, but it was no use.

The sensation spread like fire. Unbelievably, the rough, painful kiss only made the pleasure worse.

Just as I was about to hit my limit, struggling to breathe, Cha Sahyeon finally pulled away.

“Haa... haah... huu...”

“Hyung.”

He softly brushed his lips against my cheek as I gasped for breath, then slowly lowered his head.

His lips grazed my chin, then my neck, collarbone, and chest. One by one, he touched and withdrew—then kept going lower until he stopped at my stomach.

Resting his face on my lower abdomen, he gently tugged at my pants and asked,

“Should I help you?”

“...What?”

“It’s uncomfortable, right?”

Never in my life did I imagine I’d hear that come out of Cha Sahyeon’s mouth. As I stared at him, dumbfounded, he gave a small smile.

“I’m not confident I’ll be good at it since it’s my first time... but it’s probably better than you doing it alone in the bathroom.”

“......”

You insane bastard.

I couldn’t take it anymore—I covered my eyes with my hand.

A soft breeze drifted through the open window of the CEO’s office.

Kwon Taehyuk looked up from the documents he was reviewing at the sound of a knock.

“Sir.”

The chief secretary entered, wearing a strangely conflicted expression.

“Um... you have a visitor.”

“A visitor?”

Did he have an appointment today?

As he double-checked his schedule, the secretary clarified.

“No, not your visitor... it’s someone here to see Hunter Cha Seohu.”

“Ah.”

At that, Kwon Taehyuk immediately thought of Ryu Sunghyun.

Now that he considered it, it was about time. This was technically his guild, but Ryu and Cha Seohu were close, so it’d be awkward to make a fuss over it.

'Guess I’ll pretend to escort the guest and sneak in a visit to Hunter Cha Seohu too.'

Just as Taehyuk was plotting how to ditch work for a bit, the secretary spoke again—almost like he knew what Taehyuk was thinking.

“It’s not the Circle Guild’s Vice-Guildmaster.”

It’s not Ryu Sunghyun?

“Then who?”

“The visitor registered through the Association.”

The Association? Kwon Taehyuk’s brow instantly furrowed.

“What the hell does the Association think it’s doing, sending someone to—”

“No, no. It’s actually someone else.”

“...Secretary, are you messing with me right now?”

“Of course not.”

Clearly flustered himself, the secretary let out a long sigh and handed over his tablet.

“The visitor is someone named Yoon Jeha. The S-rank Hunter. I heard she was abroad until recently, but she apparently returned a few hours ago. She’s currently accompanied by Association officials.”

“Hunter Yoon Jeha?”

Kwon Taehyuk pictured a red-haired woman, her personality as fiery and troublesome as her hair.

An ominous feeling surged through him. Staring at Yoon Jeha’s picture on the tablet, he clenched his fist.

'Don’t tell me she’s after Cha Seohu too...?'
