Chapter 597

〈 Chapter 597 〉 Part 2, Chapter 1, Section 27

“Nuri, please have sex with me.”

As soon as we entered the house, Gaon asked me for sexual intercourse. Not even with herself, but with her younger sister Nuri.

“Would it be okay if I ask why?”

“It’s all I can do as an older sister.”

Gaon knelt on the bed. The proud A-Rank Special Ability user who wouldn’t take second place to anyone looked absolutely pitiful begging like this. What could possibly have driven her to such desperation?

“I’ve been working abroad for a long time, sending money home. Ninety percent of the money that went into this building was earned by me.”

“I already knew that. It’s not like the building would randomly be named ‘Gaon Nori.'”

A D-Rank Hunter couple couldn’t possibly earn much. To buy a four-story apartment building in New Seoul, you’d need at least 10 billion won. Most of that money must have come from Kim Gaon’s earnings in Russia.

“…I thought all I had to do was send money to my family. But that was a mistake. When I came back, things were a mess. My parents are still crazy with work, and Nuri has been spending her time alone at home… That wasn’t why I went overseas.”

“So that’s why you decided not to return to Russia, to Matryoshka.”

“Yes. The reason I took a leave of absence… I felt uneasy. I had this strong feeling something might happen to my younger sister, so I rushed back.”

“That makes sense.”

If the protagonist didn’t care for Kim Nuri, there was a high probability she’d disappear. What happens to runaway high school girls in New Seoul is painfully obvious. Perhaps because they’re sisters, Kim Gaon’s instincts were quite sharp.

“So when I finally came back, I didn’t know what to talk about with Nuri… My body was exhausted, so I lay down for a bit, got scolded by Nuri… and then we ended up arguing… Maybe that was the trigger.”

“What kind of trigger?”

“I asked her to boil some ramen because I was hungry. Then we started arguing over whether I was her servant or not…”

“I get the gist.”

“…Am I such a foolish older sister?”

Gaon gave a bitter laugh at her own expense. Any lingering alcohol had already been expelled using magic power, leaving her completely sober except for a slightly flushed face.

“So, I want to give my younger sister whatever she desires… No matter how shameless it may seem, I humbly beseech you.”

“What’s the cost of me fulfilling your request?”

“……Anything.”

“Hmph.”

The fists clenched tightly on her knees trembled.

“Even Rasputin would kneel and beg me, and it still wouldn’t be enough. That’s how vast the gap between us is. What value could you possibly offer me?”

“Whatever you say, I’ll do it. Please, I implore you.”

Gaon earnestly pleaded with me, even bowing.

“To make Nuri have sex with me… and turn her into a Special Ability user.”

“Dear me.”

I covered my mouth with my hand, trying to hide the smile creeping onto my lips.

‘Just as planned.’

An older sister who loves her younger sister too much.

But an older sister who doesn’t know what her younger sister truly needs.

Then fatefully, she meets someone…

Though a bit extreme and rude, if it succeeds, Kim Nuri will become a Special Ability user. The life of being teased throughout high school could end, opening the door to a new chapter two in her life after graduation.

Kim Gaon is willing to sacrifice everything for her younger sister.

“Let’s assume I’m here to kill an SS-Rank Monster lurking in Seoul. If sacrificing you would allow me to kill the SS-Rank Monster, would you do it?”

“…….”

Gaon couldn’t answer right away. As much as her family was precious, even if she could save the world by sacrificing herself, she couldn’t definitively answer because of the sorrow it would bring to her remaining family.

“…I understand that you cherish and love your younger sister. However, asking me outright to have sex with her is disrespectful to both me and her.”

“B, but! Out of 6 billion people on Earth, who would refuse a commander?!”

“There could be. Would you be able to have sex with a complete stranger?”

“Kk…!”

“And I don’t just make anyone a Special Ability user. I judge based on their latent potential, disposition, and whether they can entrust their life to me. Though Miss Nuri seems clearly kind…”

Her latent potential is overflowing, tempting me to jump straight in. I deliberately swallowed the rest of my words and adopted an ambiguous expression. Gaon read my expression and her face contorted.

“…Never mind. Forget it. Anyway, I’ll quit Esquire Guild. There’s no need to go to Russia. I’ll arrange it. You will follow my instructions for the time being-”

“I’ll offer my body.”

She blurted out strongly. I fixed her with a stern gaze.

“What do you mean by that?”

“You can use me however you like. Tha, that is…”

Crash! The door suddenly opened. If anyone was going to enter Gaon’s room-

“Holy crap.”

An iron frying pan came flying at me. If I hadn’t turned my head, it would have struck the back of my head directly. Though not perfect, it was clearly an ambush that seemed likely to hit my face.

But I have a guard right beside me.

Swish!

A blue ripple appeared in midair and deflected the frying pan’s impact. Gaon immediately channeled her magic power to restrain the attacker.

“Aaaah!!”

The attacker screamed as their limbs were restrained. I caught the frying pan handle just before it hit the floor and gently set it down.

“How much did you hear?”

“All of it!!”

“…It seems our conversation raised suspicion.”

Trapped in the water restraint, Gaon’s younger sister Nuri glared at me and Gaon with venomous eyes. Her gaze was akin to how one would look at a deranged sex offender.

“Nuri, this is-”

“Shut up, you crazy bitch!”

“!!”

Taken aback by the sudden cursing, Gaon’s expression hardened. I nodded vigorously in agreement.

“That wasn’t exactly a sensible statement.”

“You shut up too, fraudster!”

“…Fraudster?”

“Pretending to be a commander to seduce innocent sister, huh?”

“Aha. That’s one way to look at it.”

Got served. Thinking about it, Nuri might have heard but knows nothing about Gaon’s true identity or who I really am. No, she likely knows nothing at all.

“Miss Gaon is actually part of the Russian Round Table Guild. She probably revealed a fake identity, right? How did you introduce yourself?”

“…C-Rank.”

“In reality, A-Rank. And I am indeed the Commander, as your sister heard. Sister, it sounds like a movie plot, but it’s the truth.”

“Hmph, like I’d believe that?! If you’re really a commander, why are you alone in this hellish peninsula without any Round Table members?!”

“Fair point.”

An unanswerable correct statement. To the average person, a Commander is a VVVIP who even 12 Round Table members can’t fully protect. Nuri’s claim that I’m a fraudster was more convincing.

“Miss Nuri, this is-”

“Prove it!”

“Eh?”

“Go ahead and prove it with me!”

Nuri growled and shouted at me.

“If you’re really a commander, then even I, an ordinary person, should awaken, right? Go ahead and prove it! Come at me!”

“Nuri, Nuri…”

“……”

I quietly looked down at Nuri. The girl trapped on the floor glared fiercely at me.

‘She’s filled with genuine malice.’

Demanding proof of being a commander through physical means isn’t because she’s sexually loose. Rather, it’s the opposite – she’s prepared to give up everything if I turn out to be a fraudster.

Suicide.

-I was going to have sex once before leaving this world anyway, and it just happened to be with an older brother.

“…Gaon. Release Nuri’s restraints.”

“Yes.”

Gaon obediently followed my orders and released the restraints. I extended my hand to Nuri.

“Get up, Miss Nuri.”

“Hmph, surely you’re planning to throw me onto the bed while getting me up, aren’t you? Do you think I wouldn’t notice?”

“That’s possible, but there are many ways to awaken someone as a Special Ability user besides sex.”

“…”

“Nuri?”

As if proving she’s not some cafeteria lady, her embarrassment began to show. I pointed at her wrist.

“How about a little vampire bite?”

“……”

Both Nuri and Gaon turned bright red.

***

The sisters needed some time to talk, so I was banished to the shower. Anyway, the landlord and parents of the two sisters won’t be coming home today.

“They sure work hard.”

The couple works tirelessly to the point of admiration. In doing so, they completely neglect taking care of the household, but they believe that’s their love for their children.

‘It’s none of my business regarding other people’s family affairs.’

What I need to be concerned about is the decision the two sisters will make.

‘What kind of answer will they give?’

While waiting for their conversation to conclude, I spent my time washing my coat in the bathroom.

***

“Are you serious, sis? Offering your younger sister’s chastity to a guy you just met? Are you insane?”

“Nuri, he’s the Commander. Truly.”

“Commander or whatever, looks like some Yankee guy who came here to eat Korean women. Probably has a hidden camera somewhere filming this. It just doesn’t make sense otherwise.”

“But this is really happening… Out of 6 billion people, there’s only one Commander.”

Gaon tries to explain, but Nuri can’t comprehend the situation presented to her.

“So, you’re telling me that while walking along, this guy starts talking to you, turns out to be the Commander, and you bring him home to awaken me as a Special Ability user? You expect me to believe that?”

“T, that’s well…”

“Even if I give you a hundred chances, sis being an A-rank hero working abroad does make sense; she gets cursed out a lot. So let’s say you lied about being C-rank to your family. But how did you find out sis is part of the Round Table Hero Guild?”

“G, guess?”

“Kim Gaon, you moron!!!”

Nuri grabs Gaon’s collar and shakes her.

“You drank so much you puked on someone else’s coat?! What the heck is wrong with you?”

“I, I did it for you…”

“Nice excuse. For me. …For me, you told a random guy to have sex with you. Hmph, fine. I’ll do it.”

Nuri says firmly.

“But if nothing happens, sis, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.”

“Nuri?”

“Kim Gaon, bring that guy back.”

Nuri sits on the bed.

“Yankee guys are supposed to be great at sex, right? What’s taking so long to bring him?”

“U, uh-huh!”

Gaon, looking extremely intimidated, turns around as she heads out.

“B, but Nuri, I heard blood extraction could lead to awakening…”

“When did you start talking about having sex?”

“No, but the first time can be painful…”

“Wow, big deal. Have you done it before, sis? That’s impressive.”

“……S, shall I bring the Commander?”

Gaon rushes out of the room like lightning. Nuri sits curled up on the bed, burying her face in her knees.

“….For me. Now you tell me this…”

Nuri pulls at her hair and cries softly.

“Why are you saying this now…!”

The calm she had managed to maintain began to waver. Nuri briefly pulled up her left sleeve, then grabbed her wrist. At least this much, she didn’t want Gaon to see.

“….Simple. If it’s a scam and he’s not really the Commander, we’ll stick to the original plan…”

Nuri mutters darkly.

“But if it’s not a scam…”

She shakes her head dismissively. It was more realistic to win the lottery than for this to be true.

Creak.

The door opens. Gaon timidly drags in the blond young man. The blonde Western man enters wearing a white shirt and jeans, sitting next to Nuri’s bed.

“So, how should we do this? Should I draw blood?”

He unbuttons his shirt and rolls up his sleeves. His firm muscles look like they wouldn’t bleed a drop even if cut with a knife.

“…I learned everything during sex education and hero studies.”

Nuri steadies her racing heart and continues.

“Sex… requires internal ejaculation for the best effect, right? …Isn’t that correct?”

“The tone… Hmm, alright. Feel free to proceed as you wish. However, if we do that, there’s a condition.”

“……?”

He pulls Gaon towards him. Suddenly finding herself in the center of the bed, Gaon begins blinking her eyes.

“Uh…?”

“If this is Nuri’s first time, you should watch and choose. Whether to drink blood or really do it.”

“……”

Nuri loses her words. He naturally places Gaon on the bed.

“Undine, this is an order. Show Nuri what sex is like.”

“W, wait?! Here?!”

“So you wanted me to have sex with Nuri but expected me to stay idle?”

“No, no! That’s not what I meant but-”

“Nuri, could you help out?”

He extends Gaon’s arm over the pillow and smiles at Nuri.

“Could you hold her wrist for me?”

“……”

Nuri swallows hard, as if under a spell, grabbing and restraining Gaon’s wrist.
