Player who Returned 10,000 years Later
Side Story Chapter 71: Home Alone (1)Wham!
A desk shook after a fist was slammed down on it.
"P-Pandemonium?!"
Lilith, who heard everything about what happened in the Den of the Night Demons after Oh Kang-Woo came out of the Gate, sprang up from her seat in shock.
"Oh, do you know something about it?" asked Kang-Woo with shining eyes.
"No, not that." Lilith placed her hand on her forehead and shook her head as she mumbled, "A world with Succubi with no tentacles… I can’t believe such a world exists."
’Why is that what you’re shocked by?’
"In any case, I brought the Succubi survivors with me so could you manage them, Lilith?"
The Succubi pledged their allegiance to Han Seol-Ah in terror after just barely managing to survive the storm of curses. They had even used a strange magic they called Contract of Subordination so they could never defy her.
Seol-Ah believed the Succubi couldn’t be left alive since they had tried to molest Kang-Woo but after much convincing from him, twenty Succubi managed to be spared. One of them was the Succubus Queen with mystical purple hair.
"Mm. I would rather not have such ugly beings as my subordinates, but… I have no choice if it is your order, my king."
"They’re fairly capable so I’m sure they’ll be of use to you."
Lilith nodded in satisfaction. "Fufu. I was short on personnel, so this is great news."
"And they should know more about the Tower, so focus on gathering more information about that."
"Tower of Creation, was it? It’s just one thing after another, isn’t it?"
"I’ll say." Kang-Woo clicked his tongue and nodded.
Lilith tilted her head in confusion. "Hm? You don’t seem all that displeased about it, my king."
"Was it that obvious?"
"Fufu. I’ve been with you for centuries already. I’ve reached a point where I can tell exactly what you’re thinking from just a glance."
’Then why do you keep trying with the tentacles?’
He erased the thought from his head and continued, "To be honest with you, I’m a bit happy about it."
"Hoho. Is it perhaps because of those Succubi?" Lilith asked.
"Of course not," Kang-Woo smirked and shook his head. He looked down at his hand and continued, "My reconstruction progressed, albeit a minuscule amount."
"Oh? Does that mean the Demonic Sea was stimulated?"
"Yeah."
"Were the Succubi that strong?"
"No, they’re not the reason."
The Succubi were pathetically weak in terms of combat prowess. Even a Ranker on Earth could easily defeat them.
’Though a male Player wouldn’t have been able to resist their charms.’
There was a different reason why the Demonic Sea was stimulated.
"I don’t think a threat to my life is the only factor that stimulates the Demonic Sea."
"Then what else can?"
"Powers I’ve never experienced before. I think the Demonic Sea reacts to powers not recorded in the Abyss."
It was more or less confirmed during his training with Balrog. The Demonic Sea reacted more sensitively to powers it had not experienced before. In other words, devouring the powers of otherworldly beings was a completely new experience for the Demonic Sea.
"In other words, that means the more otherworldly beings invade, the quicker the rate at which you regain your powers?" Lilith asked.
"I wouldn’t say that."
"...?"
Kang-Woo smirked. "It won’t stop there."
"Ah."
Kang-Woo had become the Demonic Sea itself after fusing with it. If that were the case, he couldn’t think of the stimulation of the Demonic Sea as a process of him regaining his powers. His endless desires would take him even higher.
’Forward.’
Forward.
Lilith giggled dispiritedly as she shook her head. "Hehe. How like you, my king."
"It’s how I’ve survived until now, after all."
"Yes, and that very person is whom I’ve devoted my life to. Okay, I will add information about the Tower of Creation into my next report."
"Send it to our sister-in-law as well."
"Fufu. Of course." Lilith smiled faintly and nodded. "That aside…" Her gaze slowly moved to focus on someone. "How long are you going to stay like that for, Seol-Ah?"
Seol-Ah was hugging Kang-Woo from behind like a turtle shell. She had been leaving hickeys on Kang-Woo’s neck and ear in silence while Kang-Woo and Lilith were talking. She was acting like Gollum with the One Ring.
"Nom, nom." Seol-Ah ticklishly bit Kang-Woo’s neck and slowly looked up. "Until Kang-Woo keeps his promise."
"What promise?" Lilith asked.
"Cat ears… and tail…"
"...?"
"Haaa," Seol-Ah sighed in disappointment.
Kang-Woo strongly refused to wear the cat ears and tail that she had bought. Seol-Ah was disappointed but she couldn’t force Kang-Woo to do anything he didn’t like since Kang-Woo’s happiness was like her Alpha and Omega. She shoved her disappointment aside and stood up after letting Kang-Woo go.
"I’m sorry for clinging to you uncomfortably, Kang-Woo. I’ve calmed down."
Seol-Ah occasionally quelled her surging obsessiveness by hugging Kang-Woo. It usually did not last long but it was especially long this time because she thought Kang-Woo was molested by the Succubi.
"Hehe. There’s no way I would ever find you uncomfortable, Darling."
He despised the idea of wearing cat ears and tail, but he would never find it uncomfortable to be held by a woman he loved.
"Oh, then let’s stay like that for a bit longer," Seol-Ah expressed.
"But enough is enough. Didn’t you say you had something to show me?"
"Oh, right." Seol-Ah clapped her hands together. "Please wait just a— Oh, let me get Yeon-Joo as well."
"What did you want to show me?"
"Hehe. You know we went shopping for clothes, right?"
"Yeah."
Kang-Woo did not mention to the women that he was investigating a Gate because of that reason; it was extremely rare for Seol-Ah, who normally refused to be apart from Kang-Woo, to go shopping with the other girls.
’Though I was almost fucked because I didn’t tell her.’
He still got chills when he recalled Seol-Ah full of madness in the Den of the Night Demons.
"I wanted to show you the clothes we bought," Seol-Ah said.
"Whoa. Really?"
Kang-Wo’s eyes shone. Seol-Ah was so frugal that she owned very few clothes; not only did she cycle between three to four outfits for each season but they were all cheap clothes with bland designs.
’But Darling looks amazing in anything!’
Seol-Ah’s looks made anything she wore like brand-name clothes. Kang-Woo surged with excitement from hearing that she had bought new clothes.
"Show me right now!" Kang-Woo shouted.
"Fufu. Just a moment, please."
Seol-Ah smiled and left the room. In the living room were Cha Yeon-Joo and Echidna gaming away.
"Yeon-Joo~ where did you put the clothes we bought?"
"Those? They’re in the dressing room… W-Wait! You’re not gonna wear them, are you?!"
"Of course I am. That’s what we bought them for, isn’t it?" said Seol-Ah, her eyes wide as if she didn’t know what Yeon-Joo was talking about.
Yeon-Joo’s cheeks reddened. "I mean, th-that’s true, b-but I need some time to prepare myself."
"Fufu. You change into them too, Yeon-Joo."
"Hey! W-Wait! Stop dragging me!"
Seol-Ah dragged Yeon-Joo into the dressing room.
"Hm! Are we wearing the clothes we bought last time?"
Echidna also ran into the dressing room as she snorted.
Clack.
The room door opened after some time.
"Hehe. What do you think, Kang-Woo? Does it look good on me?"
Seol-Ah was wearing knee socks that reached her thighs, black high heels, a very short black skirt, and a white dress shirt. Kang-Woo focused on the garter belt that traveled up her pale thighs. Seol-Ah’s office lady outfit took Kang-Woo’s breath away.
"!!!!!!"
Kang-Woo cheered but no sound came out of his mouth. His eyes shook uncontrollably. The clothes Seol-Ah usually wore covered her curves because she only wore baggy clothes to fit her gigantic breasts, but these tight clothes accentuated her curves to the max.
"Does it… look bad on me?" asked Seol-Ah hesitantly because Kang-Woo was simply standing blankly in silence. "Oh."
As Seol-Ah was shaking anxiously, she then noticed something on Kang-Woo’s lower body. The anxiety in her eyes disappeared and she smiled widely.
"Hehe. It seems you like it ?"
"D-DARLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!"
Kang-Woo let his bursting emotions loose and hugged Seol-Ah tightly.
Snap!
"Kyaah!"
The buttons of her shirt barely holding her chest at bay burst out and hit Kang-Woo’s cheek.
"Gasp."
’Dear Lord.’
"Th-The shirt is ruined," Seol-Ah remarked.
"..."
Kang-Woo was lost for words by the destructive capabilities of Seol-Ah’s breasts.
"For fuck’s sake… he’s clinging only to Seol-Ah again."
Just then, he heard Yeon-Joo’s mumbles. He turned around with shining eyes.
"WHOOOOOAAAAAAA!!!"
Yeon-Joo was wearing tall boots that went beyond her knees, tight leather pants, and an off-shoulder blouse. Kang-Woo felt like he was going insane from seeing Yeon-Joo, who undoubtedly had the most beautiful legs out of his lovers, wearing such tight pants.
"YOU’RE SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL, YEON-JOO!!"
"Th-The fuck are you talking about?"
"Hehe. Did you buy it so you can show off to your oppa?"
"No fucking way!!" Yeon-Joo shouted and turned around but she couldn’t hide her smile. She whispered to herself, "Son of a bitch… he’s so happy. Hehe."
’I can hear you, Yeon-Joo.’
Kang-Woo smiled in satisfaction but then turned serious after enjoying their beauty as much as he liked.
He remarked, "Those clothes suit you two really well, but don’t you dare wear them outside."
The clothes looked so great on them that he could jump three meters into the air and do a 2,520-degree backflip.
’Which is exactly why I can’t show anyone else.’
He couldn’t live with other men witnessing his lovers in such alluring outfits.
’It’s only for me.’
Kang-Woo’s eyes blazed passionately.
"My, my! This is the first time I’ve seen Kang-Woo like this!"
"Hehe. Do you like them that much?"
Seol-Ah and Yeon-Joo smiled brightly as Kang-Woo acted possessively.
"Hehe. Don’t worry. We didn’t buy them to wear outside in the first place," Seol-Ah mentioned.
"Then where?"
’Where else would you wear new clothes?’
"Fufu. Where else?" Seol-Ah whispered in his ear, "The bedroom ?"
"I’m crying."
’I’m so fucking happy.’
"You fucking pervert," Yeon-Joo remarked.
"You’ll wear it too, right, Yeon-Joo?"
"A-Ahem. I mean… as long as you beg for it, I don’t see why not."
"I’ll beg right now."
Kang-Woo did a headstand without hesitation.
"Pfft! The hell is that?"
"Oh, this is called a headstand bow[1]."
"Hehehehehe! You’re such a dumbass. Alright, fine. I’ll wear it, but not tonight."
"Why not tonight?"
’You’re already wearing it!’
"I have to go to the guild in the evening. I told you something came up, didn’t I?"
"Oh."
He indeed remembered Yeon-Joo talking about it.
"What about you, Darling?"
"Oh… I-I’m sorry, Kang-Woo. I decided to visit my mother since it’s been a while. I’ll probably be spending the night there."
"I’m crying!!"
’The tears won’t stop!’
1. I don’t think there’s an English name for it but it’s like a meme of bowing so low that you’re just doing a headstand. ?
