That Face Is the Problem - Chapter 10.1
Jae-gyeong quickly covered the area with both hands. He felt this was the most embarrassing moment of his life. Even when he had wet the bed as a child, he had been calmer.
“Th-This is… absolutely—”
“Damn, really, men are….”
Da-sol stopped the healing without mercy and stood up. He strode purposefully toward the side where the other team members were.
Left alone, Jae-gyeong swallowed back tears and pressed his stiff lower body down.
It was over.
Since Da-sol had been healing his thigh, there was no way for Jae-gyeong not to see.
Why is this happening? Jae-gyeong blamed himself and quickly forced his mind elsewhere. Wide plains, cute baby lambs, clouds, children laughing innocently, his grandmother carving melons when he was young. Fortunately, it was not a full erection, so he managed to calm himself down quickly.
By the time he had done this, Da-sol had already left the training ground. When Jae-gyeong eventually got up and awkwardly went to the other team members, they had all already changed into casual clothes.
They must have known too. Since Da-sol had cursed and left like that, they probably knew that he had an erection.
How disgusting must that be. They might even ask him to resign. Jae-gyeong firmly resolved to accept it humbly if that happened.
Unexpectedly, the team members welcomed him as if nothing had happened.
“Are you physically alright?”
“Da-sol’s healing worked well, right? I mean, it was going to work anyway.”
“It really is an amazing skill. I’ve never worked with a paladin before.”
“Pretty awesome.”
They seemed unaware that Jae-gyeong had gotten an erection while being healed. Even if they knew, they could not have responded so warmly.
“Uh… yes…”
Jae-gyeong answered reluctantly, and Hee-ro patted his shoulder lightly in encouragement.
“Don’t worry about Da-sol’s reaction. Almost all male hunters have that kind of physiological response. Da-sol knows too. There isn’t a single male hunter he hasn’t affected.”
No. He knows everything.
Jae-gyeong’s face went pale. His mouth opened in panic, and Ri-na nodded knowingly.
“Honestly, healers probably feel awkward, but even women get a little like that when being healed.”
“Uh… Ri-na, let’s go. Let’s go have lunch…”
Ye-jin pulled Ri-na out of the training room. Even as she was dragged away, Ri-na gave Jae-gyeong a thumbs-up.
What the hell just happened…?
The slightly red-faced Jin Jeong-eon explained on his behalf.
“Seo Da-sol is an A-rank healer with exceptional skill.”
The higher the purity of mana and the better the skill control, the higher the quality of the healing, and the more the recipient’s body would react automatically. Other healers might simply heal wounds and make the recipient feel good, but Da-sol’s healing went beyond that, even providing a kind of pleasure.
As a result, many male hunters had been unable to hide their physiological responses in front of Da-sol, and some had misinterpreted it emotionally, confessing to him or even committing sexual harassment.
Jae-gyeong had heard about this at their first meeting, but he had not realized it was directly linked to erections. He knew that many incidents related to healers and sex happened, but he had never heard of anyone being as repeatedly troubled as Da-sol.
“He’s really pretty and small too.”
Hee-ro said this, then added with lightning speed,
“Of course, he’s not my type.”
Jae-gyeong nodded. He did not care about Hee-ro’s preference, but he agreed that most people would see Da-sol as a pretty, cute, and delicate healer. Jae-gyeong also became more cautious around Da-sol, who reminded him of Da-in.
Being pretty, cute, and delicate was not an advantage in this world. It was more of a disadvantage. Rankings were determined by mana and class, and everything operated solely on the logic of strength. Before the appearance of awakeners, it might have been different, but now this tendency was stronger and more severe.
Most hunters probably underestimated Da-sol and tried to approach him, just like they had with the non-awakened Da-in. Hee-ro’s comment implied that he seemed easy to handle because he was small and pretty.
Jae-gyeong’s face darkened. He had received healing from Da-sol and gotten an erection. How disgusted he must have felt. As he blamed himself, Jin Jeong-eon seemed to read his thoughts and said,
“Seo Da-sol is already used to this. He might be angry and disgusted right now, but in time, he will not mind. As long as you, Jeong Jae-gyeong, do not confess or act sexually violently, there will be no problem.”
