Therefore

The room was filled with nothing but silence, save for the sound of rain tapping against the window.

I slowly bent at the waist and placed my hand on the floor.

The sticky sensation of blood felt ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠through my gloves.

It was as unpleasant as the sweat that had trickled down Serin's back yesterday, and as fishy as the slime Elina had rubbed all over Jack's body.

Blue mana seeped from my fingertips.

Every time my fingers swept across the floor, geometric patterns began to be etched onto the blood.

Very precise, very detailed. My mana control, honed over ten years, did not betray me even in a moment like this, drawing perfect trajectories.

"Oppa...... what is that?"

Miu asked in a trembling voice.

Without turning my head, I gently stroked the edge of the pattern and answered.

"Hm? Ah, it's summoning magic. You know it too, right, Miu? It's one of the spells I used ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠in the dungeon back then. I told Elina until I was blue in the face that mages must always study."

My voice was still affectionate. Just like that night when we were camping in the forest and I was teaching them the basics of magic.

However, the magic circle before my eyes was emitting a blacker and murkier light than ever before.

"Rion-nim, the composition of that magic circle is...... a bit strange. The coordinates for the summoned beast don't seem to be directed toward the Underworld or the Spirit Realm, but rather...... toward the dungeon......"

Elina offered a trembling analysis with the insight of a mage.

I looked at her with a grin.

"That's right, Elina. Accurate. What I'm going to summon isn't a noble spirit or a powerful magical beast. They're just Breeding Goblins, left with nothing but instinct, their intelligence having degenerated."

Breeding Goblins.

The moment those words dropped, the complexion of Goro, who was collapsed on the floor, turned as pale as a sheet of paper.

He instinctively tried to back away, but his legs, already crushed and mangled by Serin, could not do their job.

"Captain Rion...... no, Rion-nim! Please! Just kill me! I'd rather die at the hands of those women! Please!"

I ignored Goro's pleas and injected the final bit of mana into the magic circle.

Ku-oong—.

The air in the room settled heavily.

A disgusting stench, a mixture of mud and excrement, rose from the center of the magic circle.

And from within it, monsters with dull green skin, less than a meter tall, began to appear one by one.

They were grotesque beings, all of them emphasizing only their abnormally enlarged genitals, with yellow saliva dripping from their mouths.

"Ah...... Aack!"

Miu let out a short scream and stepped back.

I tapped the head of a summoned goblin as if I were an owner introducing a cute puppy.

The goblins were overwhelmed by my mana and were crouching quietly, but their murky eyes were already greedily scanning the living creatures in the room.

"Now, everything is ready."

I took a small glass bottle from inside my clothes.

A reagent with pink smoke swirling inside. I mixed it with my mana and scattered it into the air.

"This is a combination of Illusion Magic and Aphrodisiac Magic. I designed it very precisely. It can't be detected by human smell, but to these goblins......"

I pointed at Goro.

"Right now, Goro, you must look like the most beautiful, fragrant, and desirable female goblin in the world to them. A being so attractive that ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠they'd go crazy if they didn't sow their seed right away."

"What......? No...... No! Don't! Rion!! You crazy bastard!!"

Goro screamed, struggling violently.

But I didn't even enjoy his screams. I was just indifferent.

"Serin, you said it, didn't you? That Goro's rough touch was a hundred times better than my gentle voice. That this man gave you pleasure that an incompetent person like me couldn't provide."

"Rion...... please, that was......"

"It's not wrong. I never once saw you as tools for desire. I always treated you preciously and with care. But it seems Goro was different. So, I became curious."

I slowly released the goblins' restraints.

Their breathing grew rough. Their gazes were fixed on Goro's buttocks and between his crotch.

"I wondered what it would be like if Goro himself felt the pleasure you claimed to have felt. These little ones don't even get tired. They won't stop until their instincts are satisfied, until the opponent's intestines are twisted and their anus is torn."

"Aah...... Aaaaah......"

Serin eventually collapsed to the floor and started retching.

"Now, begin."

At my command, the goblins lunged.

"Aaaaaaack! Get away! You monster bastards! Rion!! You son of a bitch!! Stop!! I'm telling you to stop!!"

Goro's desperate screams filled the room.

The goblins' rough hands tore his clothes to shreds. Their enlarged genitals rubbed against Goro's body, and soon, the sound of flesh hitting flesh echoed horribly.

Jjigeok, jjigeok sounds.

It was chillingly similar to the sounds I had to listen to from outside the door yesterday.

I approached Serin, using Goro's screams as background music.

I carefully stroked her cheek, which had turned cold from the rain.

As soon as my touch reached her, Serin shuddered, her shoulders jerking violently as if she had been electrocuted by high-voltage current.

In her eyes, fear toward me and a shame she couldn't bear to face were swirling together.

"Serin, look. Goro is enjoying it very much."

I pointed to the horrific sight of Goro, just as a kind oppa would teach a young sibling the names of flowers.

"Goblin genitals have a different structure than humans. The tip is split like a fishhook, so once it's inserted, it scrapes the entire inner wall every time it's forcibly pulled out. The scream Goro is letting out right now isn't because of pain. His brain is being fried by the pleasure you experienced yesterday."

"Rion...... please...... stop....... please......."

Serin shook her head, covering her ears with both hands.

But I gently grabbed her wrists and pulled them down.

Jjigeok, jjigeok.

Every time the goblins' genitals dug into Goro's rectum, the sound of tearing flesh echoed through the room.

Goro could no longer even scream; he was gasping and spitting out blood mixed with foam.

"You have to watch, Serin. It's the man you loved. Look there, do you see the goblin's green fluid flowing down Goro's thighs? Their semen is highly acidic, so it burns the inside of the intestines like a chemical burn. Goro will probably never be able to control his bowels for ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠the rest of his life, but...... so what? He's receiving that hot love you talked about with his whole body. Look, Goro's eyes are rolling back. It's the same expression you made under him yesterday. Isn't it fascinating? That humans end up making the same expression in the face of extreme pain and pleasure."

Perhaps my gentle question scraped against Serin's eardrums, as she eventually couldn't hold it in and vomited stomach acid onto the floor.

Just then, Jack and Old Man Hoji, who had been watching from the side, crawled to my feet.

Jack, already forgetting that his own thighs had been scorched by Elina's magic, grabbed my pant leg and banged his head against the floor.

"Ri, Rion-nim! I was wrong! I have committed a sin worthy of death! Just kill me instead! Anything but...... being subjected to those monsters...... please!"

Old Man Hoji also pleaded in a trembling voice, his liver-spotted face covered in tears and snot.

"Captain Rion, no, Rion-spirit-nim! I was crazy! That beastkin bitch wagged her tail at me first! I just ate what was given to me! Please, just spare this old man's life......!"

I looked down at them and furrowed my brow slightly as if troubled. Then, I smiled benevolently like a parent soothing a child.

"Jack, Old Man Hoji. Why are you so scared? Your faces have turned deathly pale. Don't worry. This is, after all, a gift exclusively for Goro, prepared so that he can experience the special pleasure he gave to Serin himself."

At my words, a fleeting hope flashed in their eyes. But I intended to trample that hope very slowly and painfully.

"I'm a fair person, aren't I? What was our party's motto? It was 'Fair Distribution,' right? I gave Goro a gift, and I was worried Jack and you, sir, would feel left out if I didn't give you anything...... so I've prepared customized gifts suitable for each of you."

I lightly patted Jack's shoulder. Jack flinched every time my touch reached him, as if he were being branded with a hot iron.

"A, a gift......?"

"Yes. Jack, you enjoyed using Elina's magic for pleasure, didn't you? Making her use her magic...... for sexual purposes. So, I'm going to gift you a special spell. I'm going to implant very fine mana needles all over your body. Even if a tiny breeze brushes by, or even if fabric just touches your skin...... you'll feel pleasure and pain simultaneously, as if thousands of bees are stinging your genitals."

Jack's complexion turned leaden in an instant.

"You will live your whole life unable to ejaculate, only screaming in extreme sensitivity. Ah, of course, I've also inscribed an automatic recovery circle, referencing Elina's regeneration magic report, so you won't be able to die even if you want to. You are no longer a human, but a living 'bundle of nerves'."

My gaze naturally shifted to Old Man Hoji. The old man was already out of his mind, having wet himself.

"Old Man Hoji, you were very fond of Miu, weren't you? I heard it's your preference to treat her like a beast. So, I'll make you a real beast. I've prepared a mutation reagent that maximizes the side effects of the Beastification Drug. You will now become an old dog that can't speak or think...... and you'll spend your whole life wandering the filthiest sewers of this town. I heard Miu tied a ribbon on your dick? I'll personally brand that ribbon onto your hide."

I looked at the heroines again.

Elina, hearing my explanation where the things she did to Jack were projected back onto him, frantically rubbed her hands against the floor.

It was as if she wanted to cut off the fingers she had used her magic with.

As soon as the word 'ribbon' came out, Miu tucked her tail tightly between her legs and let out a beast-like whimper.

I looked at them again with a gentle smile.

"Why does everyone have such scared expressions? Elina, it's the 'creative magic application' you wanted. Miu, it's the 'beast-like play' you liked. Serin, it's the 'rough touch' you praised."

I called their names one by one and patted their shoulders.

"I was so happy because you all looked happy. So, I'm just trying to share the things you liked with these men as well. I'm a very kind companion, aren't I?"

I left them behind and turned back to Serin.

She was now completely unfocused, unable to take her eyes off the sight of Goro being violated by the goblins.

The rain was still falling.

I stood by the inn window and looked up at the sky where the heavy rain was pouring down.

"It's raining quite a lot. I guess it's because there's so much that needs to be washed away."

There was no one to answer my monologue.
