〈 Chapter 294 〉 Part 1, Chapter 13, Section 11
Chang-yeom and I exchanged various stories, and the topic of conversation eventually returned to Tubulus.
“Ugh, even so, a gas monster inside the uterus? No matter how you think about it, that’s crazy, right?”
“I think the same, but what’s the point in questioning me about it. It’s all the production team’s fault.”
“That’s right, isn’t it? They also turned Maamryong into some kind of rag after how pure she was.”
“……Still, since she’s a virgin, it’s fine, right?”
Kok.
“Ow.”
“There’s nothing you can’t say in front of me.”
Chang-yeom and I debated at length about the unreasonable settings from the production team.
“Seok Harang is like this, and Xiao Lin too. Why are all the heroines so tragic?”
Chang-yeom expressed sympathy for the heroines.
Park Ra-on, once a promising talent, fell and spent five years struggling at rock bottom.
Hikari, bullied in Japan, left the country but was captured by Cheong Song and had her research results exploited without seeing sunlight.
Xiao Lin, whose freedom was suppressed by her father, couldn’t even express herself.
Yun Yuhwa, whose entire family was wiped out in the Pyongyang incident, had to lead a group at a young age.
Cheon Gaeul had an even more predetermined rolling future compared to other heroines.
As for Baek Hee-a…
“Baek Hee-a, what will you do with her?”
Chang-yeom giggled and poked my cheek with a feather. I had no immediate plans to deal with the issues surrounding Baek Hee-a.
“Let’s postpone this. Since she’s involved with the protagonist.”
“Really worried, aren’t you? Are you still scared you’ll fall for the protagonist at first sight? Or that just looking at them will make you go ‘kyuukyuu’?”
“Yeah.”
Even Rasputin made me tremble with fear. The original protagonist was an even more demonic existence than Rasputin to me, and I feared losing my sanity the moment I saw him.
“Rather, I’m scared that my eyes might wander from you.”
“Puhuhu. I see. Still, don’t the heroines get saved thanks to the protagonist… isn’t that right?”
Each of the 17 heroines had their own tragic situations, and the protagonist deepened relationships with them by resolving those situations.
“Yeah, you were the same.”
“I died, didn’t I?”
“But I revived you, didn’t I? Find your route.”
“So the one who says they’ll only look at me allows playing around with other heroines…”
After granting permission, Chang-yeom pointed out what I intended to do. I grabbed Chang-yeom and declared firmly.
“I’ve already told you. My heart won’t waver at all. I’ll only use this.”
I raised a finger and gently tickled Mini Phoenix’s belly. Chang-yeom closed her eyes contentedly as if receiving a massage from my hand movements.
“Only hands, huh?”
“Yeah, only hands.”
“Are you really satisfied with just your hands? You might get excited and start using your tongue uncontrollably. Or maybe you’ll fly off to China and borrow Rasputin in the middle of things?”
“……Probably, I definitely won’t. Probably.”
Honestly, I don’t know. Though I have strong willpower, the aura emanating from that cursed Cube wasn’t something to be taken lightly.
Tok tok.
Chang-yeom fiddled with my Magical Gear. As she’s a divided spirit created from my magic power, she could skillfully handle the Magical Gear as well.
“Let’s see… alarm.”
Chang-yeom set the alarm and adjusted the time.
“I’ll give you exactly 15 minutes. Use only your hands. Don’t cross the line while getting carried away with the mood.”
“Of course. And 15 minutes is enough. Do you think I’d have ulterior motives while performing medical care on patients?”
“Do you really think that after knowing what you did with Aruel?”
“……”
Chang-yeom knows everything about me, leaving me no way to rebut. There was only one thing I could say.
“…To remove the poison within the body, the best method is to burn it away with heat, right?”
“Honestly, you can’t even talk properly. Fine. If you’re so concerned about Park Ra-on, I’ll generously understand. But…”
Chang-yeom pressed her forehead against mine where the Cube had been spat out and glared at me.
“You’ve wavered countless times so far. After making Park Ra-on SS Rank, are you really confident you won’t waver? Can you truly only look at me? Puhuhu.”
“Of course.”
While kissing Mini Phoenix’s lower belly, I solemnly swore.
“I wouldn’t look at anyone else besides you.”
“……Puhuhu.”
With her characteristic laugh, Chang-yeom rubbed her forehead against mine and dispersed into flames. A warm heat touched my face, and I lifted the Cube that Chang-yeom had once swallowed towards the ceiling.
“Surely this will try to interfere with me… as expected.”
Pa-at.
The Cube hung itself on the ceiling and emitted soft lighting. A reddish glow filled my room, transforming the space within the barrier into something resembling a guest room in a red-light district.
“……”
I fidgeted with my fingers and carefully pressed the Magical Gear.
“Come in.”
The barrier slightly opened, and two wind-attribute special ability users awkwardly shuffled into my room.
“First, come in and sit down. If you feel unable to continue, please say so. We’ll find another way then.”
That’s right.
I haven’t yet explained in detail to them how we’ll extract Tubulus, and I first sought Chang-yeom’s approval.
Since Chang-yeom’s approval has been given, now it depends on how the parties involved receive it, which will decide whether I proceed or not.
* * *
How to transplant Tubulus.
I disclosed my surgical plan in detail to them, just as I explained to Chang-yeom. At least the surgery participants need to clearly understand the process and its outcomes.
“……”
First, Park Ra-on covered her face with both hands. She’s older than the protagonist in the original work, but currently, she’s merely a maiden a few years older than Seok Harang. Around the age when she would have graduated university, she felt quite embarrassed about my surgical procedure.
“T… So, Lord Cheongnyeon will personally do it, correct?”
“That’s right. I may not know much else, but I guarantee this one thing.”
I flexibly bent and stretched my five fingers. The octopus-like wriggling movement of my fingers made Yu I-shin, sitting beside me, flinch.
“Why are you suddenly curling your legs?”
“……Director, as expected.”
“Shh.”
I subtly threatened Yu I-shin by slightly raising my finger. Realizing my intention, Yu I-shin quickly shut her mouth. Extending that hand towards Park Ra-on, I started playing with my fingers.
“Perhaps there’s no one in the world better at this than me?”
Raising a finger and poking.
“Director… really… Haa. No, it’s not.”
Ultimately, Yu I-shin blushed and tightly closed her eyes. Not only was it embarrassing for her to watch Park Ra-on’s situation, but as someone directly involved in receiving Tubulus, she found the whole scenario extremely uncomfortable.
“Gulp.”
Yu I-shin kept staring at my hand movements. I cleared my throat and turned my gaze back to Park Ra-on.
“First, Park Ra-on, are you prepared?”
“Will everything be resolved painlessly if I entrust myself to Lord Cheongnyeon?”
Park Ra-on seriously feared the unknown terror. While the pain from injuries sustained in battles with monsters and villains is familiar, the sensation of being torn apart would be a shocking experience she has never encountered before.
“Yes. At least, it won’t hurt.”
Can one feel pain even in a state of lost consciousness? I am absolutely certain the answer is no. Covering pain with pleasure is a method already verified through another heroine, though it wasn’t Park Ra-on.
“…..Then, I kindly ask for your help.”
Bowing her head, Park Ra-on entrusted herself to me. I reassured her by holding her hand and patting her palm, and Park Ra-on exhaled deeply to relieve her tension.
Having obtained the consent of the party involved, it’s now Yu I-shin’s turn.
“Listen carefully. How it goes.”
I re-explained the surgical process to Yu I-shin, who caressed her abdomen and regulated her breathing.
“Will acquiring Tubulus really make me stronger?”
“Yes. After implanting Tubulus, although I don’t know how the nature will change, the killing power will certainly increase compared to your current arrows.”
I recalled the techniques frequently used by the special ability user, Wind Demon, who became the host of Tubulus in the original story.
“The basic characteristic of Tubulus is ‘devouring until it disappears.’ For Yunsa, it manifested as Greedy Winds. For others, it sometimes appeared as a storm that tears everything apart.”
Wind Demon, who possessed Tubulus, shot tornadoes like throwing energy waves with both hands, and Tubulus devoured everything that entered the tornado.
“Whenever he released the wind, the monsters were completely obliterated without a trace.”
Though it was said that wherever Wind Demon went, everything was destroyed, in reality, it was all devoured by Tubulus. Yu I-shin sighed in relief.
“At least acquiring it won’t harm my abilities. Understood. Then, the issue is ensuring regular core supply, correct?”
“Don’t worry. There will be no disruption in core supply.”
For the experiment, I took out a core born from Black Sand Gall and handed it to Yu I-shin.
“This is your reward for bravely participating in my experiment.”
“I love you, Director.”
“Don’t direct love towards me.”
“……Huhuhu.”
Quickly snatching the core from my hand, Yu I-shin unbuttoned her blouse.
“What…?”
While Park Ra-on was confused by Yu I-shin’s sudden act of opening her chest wide, Yu I-shin, having unhooked the front clasp of her bra after partially removing her blouse, revealed her significantly present bosom, though not as prominent as Cheon Gaeul’s.
“I, this is-”
“Perfect timing. Look. This is how abnormals grow.”
Though startled and unsure what to do, Park Ra-on calmed down as I held her hand and gently pressed it. Her rapid heartbeat transmitted fully through our touch.
“I’ll enjoy it well.”
Yu I-shin placed the core on her exposed upper chest. Her white skin split apart, and the core slipped smoothly into her body.
Woooom.
“Haaaah…”
Yu I-shin’s core began greedily absorbing the core born from Black Sand Gall, and she crossed her arms, shivering her body. It was a sight reminiscent of someone reaching slight climax.
“Hhaaah… This sensation is truly irresistible.”
“……”
Most special ability users derive joy from becoming stronger, but for abnormals, this tendency is particularly intense. Even Lighthouse initially couldn’t resist the pleasure brought by cores, right?
“Is it really that good?”
“Don’t even say it. Absorbing an S-Rank core is honestly better than sex or drugs-”
Yu I-shin closed her mouth, but it was already too late. The fact that Yu I-shin, who usually maintains strict self-discipline, made such a slip indicates she’s currently quite disheveled.
“……”
Yu I-shin lowered her head. While I knew her background from having used her several times as a rank 1.5 soldier, Park Ra-on was shocked by the licentiousness and debauchery of Yu I-shin, who appears so demure.
“Indeed. Did you mean that you previously indulged in bodily pleasures?”
“Director, are you teasing her?”
“It’s because Yunsa expresses herself too directly. Understand, okay? And Palace Guard, it’s not like you should get so heated up. When you were in the Pine Brigade-”
“Sorry, Director. I’ll shut up.”
Yu I-shin immediately backed down. No matter how high-ranking an officer in Blue Wind Sect, my priority always lies with the heroines first. Realizing I subtly favored Park Ra-on, Yu I-shin quickly bowed her head.
“Hmph. Anyway, did you absorb the core born from Black Sand Gall well?”
“Yes. Some of it spilled over.”
From Yu I-shin’s closed chest, black magic power that wasn’t fully absorbed oozed stickily, flowing down her chest like melted chocolate in midsummer and dripping drop by drop.
“Absorbing that much of an S-Rank core is impressive.”
Yu I-shin’s body overflowed with dark attribute magic power. Although it was a different attribute from her main power, over time, the core would convert it to wind attribute. Though a significant amount of magic power would be lost during the process.
“This is how abnormals become stronger. So don’t worry about the loss of magic power.”
“Understood…”
Seeing how Yu I-shin increased her power, Park Ra-on nodded vigorously.
“I’ll do it.”
“Great. Since we don’t have much time, let’s start right away.”
Clapping my hands together and rubbing them, I smiled broadly at Park Ra-on.
“Then, shall we start by taking off your panties?”
