〈 Chapter 813 〉 Part 3, Chapter 1, Episode 15: The Conditions of a Companion
In this world, there exist all sorts of sexual fantasies catering to different tastes.
There are elves who, despite being hundreds of years old, desire to be trampled by beings inferior to themselves, and half-elves who easily fall for mere humans.
But this… this is taking it too far, isn’t it?
A knight who actually wants to get ridden?
Of course, I was aware. I already knew that Delphia had thrown herself into the “rape village” out of some masochistic desire to be violated.
But I never imagined she’d end up like *this*—as part of some hole in a facility I couldn’t have dreamed existed.
“Are all the women here willingly allowing themselves to be used like this?”
“Yes. This place, called ‘FreeFuge,’ was established by the First High Priest as a public welfare facility for those seeking easy release.”
The name itself screams its purpose.
“These women have all been tested for STDs and groomed properly. In each room, they expose only their lower halves in various positions, waiting for someone they don’t even know to use them however they please.”
The manager pulled on ropes above the holes, and suddenly Delphia, whose waist-down area was fully exposed, began swaying her hips seductively.
“Seriously?!”
“Yes. Your observation signals consent. Some participants here just lie still, while others, like her, are more proactive.”
The ropes stretched through walls, signaling other participants. Clearly, Delphia was enticing me with an invitation to mount her.
‘Is this really what comes out of these places?’
Even Earth in my 25 years had such establishments.
Wasn’t it that Mexican story? Something about a villainous drug lord running a similar operation, treating drugged women like livestock in a ranch, letting his underlings exploit them freely to secure loyalty. It involved corrupt cops, politicians, and cartels.
If this story draws inspiration from that, then no wonder whispers of “this is a bit much” circulated among players—even affecting figures like Gaechonkwang and Karna. What kind of nation is this Vishnia if this passes as normal?
Calling it a “Sex-Pure Nation” doesn’t excuse how extreme this is.
It’d be one thing if these were strangers, but seeing someone I recognize makes it uncomfortable.
It’s like when you’re chatting smutty gossip with a friend’s friend, casually dropping names, only to hear, “Wait, didn’t I meet her at a brothel once?”
Not directly my business, but it’s still jarring mentally.
Let me reiterate: Reuniting with Delphia here was absolutely the worst.
“What is this knight doing here?”
Never would I have guessed after meeting her in the rape village that I’d run into her again in a place like this.
I recognized her instantly because the sight reminded me of the warehouse scene back in the rape village—a vivid déjà vu.
“Do you wish to use her?”
“No. I do not. Just passing by.”
Feeling awkward, and worried that Hari might encounter Delphia, I grabbed Hari and tried to leave.
“Let’s go.”
“Just wait! Is that really her?”
But Hari stopped me, alternating glances between the hole and me. She looked at me longer than the hole.
“If, uh… we need her help.”
“Help?”
“Yes. Despite appearances, she’s… our…”
“A princess supporter?”
Hari nodded silently.
“I’m a top-tier knight in the kingdom…”
“Not a top-tier public erection, right?”
“…An individual’s sexual preferences don’t necessarily correlate with their abilities.”
“That’s true.”
From the perspective of survival of the fittest, the strong always dominate and violate the weak. But sometimes, the weak will beg the strong to take control.
Though forcing someone weaker to do so could still be considered a privilege of the powerful…
‘Ultimately, it depends on the person.’
Sexual preferences deserve respect.
However, respecting her preferences doesn’t mean welcoming Delphia as a companion for this journey.
“Hear me out, Hari. There’s a teaching in the Blazing Phoenix faith.”
“Yes, I’m listening. What is it?”
“Non-virgins die.”
“…What?”
Hari’s face went pale. While the concept of “purity” might resonate in this land of light, the creed of the Blazing Phoenix Apostle differs.
“More specifically, the Apostle of the Blazing Phoenix cannot consort with non-virgins.”
“You’re the Apostle of the Blazing Phoenix.”
“Yes. I am cursed never to consort with non-virgins.”
“What… does that even mean… Ah!!”
Hari’s face flushed red immediately. Sharp girl.
“Anyway, let’s move on.”
A blond woman in a robe approached us. Her expression was colder than ice after several days apart.
“Long time no see.”
“Yeah. Let’s head to… no, not the inn. A clothing store first.”
“Clothing store? Shouldn’t we go to our lodging?”
“She rushed out without anything underneath her robe.”
Upon hearing my words, the robed woman—Delphia—quietly moved next to Hari. Hari stared at Delphia with a conflicted look before retreating behind me.
…Did she dodge her because of the “non-virgin” comment?
* * *
Before connecting:
“The Blazing Phoenix must only be surrounded by virgins.”
Shin-ra warned me sternly. At first, I had no idea what she meant.
“Why?”
“Non-virgins are promiscuous, and promiscuous women will likely spread their legs for you easily.”
Pure Shin-ra talk. Personally, I didn’t care whether someone was a virgin or not.
Delphia? Being non-virgin and being promiscuous are two different things. There’s a big difference between someone who has slept with one person versus someone who has slept with a thousand.
“Is this because of the Light Nation?”
“No. This applies everywhere. You’ll need defenses against the females who’ll undoubtedly come after you. Even more so in the other world.”
“Non-virgins aren’t viruses.”
“It’s important. Who do you think smokes more drugs: someone who’s never touched drugs or someone who has?”
“Are you saying sex is like drugs?”
“It’s basically the same. Experienced women will try to sleep with you. Especially in the other world.”
Shin-ra conjured flames mid-air.
“S-Rank ability users number less than a hundred in Tera. In fantasy terms, they’re Sword Masters, 8th Circle Mages, or Hwa-gyung Martial Artists.”
“Reading novels lately?”
“Just making analogies! Since we can’t assign levels or ranks in the other world!”
“Assigning ranks or levels wouldn’t make much difference anyway.”
I already understand the immense power of S-Rank individuals and the magnetic charm they possess.
Back during my 20-year Earth life with Cheongnyeon.
How many honey traps (male ones) did I survive?
The purer one’s magic power, the more attractive they become. They earn admiration, trust, and affection from others.
S-Rank individuals embody this allure. SS-Rank or SSS-Rank takes it to another level entirely.
“So, question time. Would non-virgins targeting you with ‘Mmm, I need to seduce him with my body!’ be more common, or virgins thinking ‘I-I need to seduce him with my body!’?”
“You seem to misunderstand something.”
I needed to clarify Shin-ra’s misconception first.
“The premise that I’d be seduced by random women is flawed.”
“YOU…”
Shin-ra, deeply moved, hugged me tightly.
“You’re truly the one!”
She rubbed her cheek against mine—
“But you’ll only accept female companions, right?”
She whispered softly and calmly into my ear.
“There’s no way you’d take male companions. Definitely female, definitely virgins. Male companions? You’d rather wander alone.”
“…”
“You’re not the type to evaluate male characters based on performance, are you?”
Shin-ra knew me all too well. I patted her back to calm her down.
“True. If I must recruit companions due to necessity, I’d choose women. Women who fall for my appearance won’t betray me.”
It’s a materialistic reason.
Managing a harem?
Let me restate: It’s wrong for a married man to cheat.
“What if a woman says, ‘If I can’t have you, I’ll destroy you!’?”
“In that case, I’ll destroy her first. Besides, I wouldn’t recruit such a woman as a companion in the first place.”
When moving in Tera, I’ll carefully select any companions.
“I’m a guardian protecting Tera. I don’t have time for sex in that world.”
“You’re doing it all the time here though.”
“Obviously. When my wife over there is actively seeking me, why would I resist?”
While connected to Tera, my physical body rests. Upon returning, my body reaches peak vitality.
That means…
Immediately after returning from Tera,
I could engage in simultaneous sex with Shin-ra, Seok Harang, and Yuinah without tiring!
Protecting the world and having full-power sex with loved ones.
Why would I waste time having sex in another realm?
“Shin-ra, there’s only one reason I recruit virgins.”
I kissed her lips gently.
“When peace returns to Tera, I’ll tell anyone who wants to sleep with me the truth: I was actually a woman.”
“Eh…?”
“And if they still want intercourse, I’ll insist it happens woman-to-woman.”
“Impossible…!”
“Yes.”
I’m gathering gifts for Shin-ra.
“All the companions I gather—you’ll screen them. Sound good?”
If Shin-ra is vetting these women, how could any non-virgin make it to her bed?
