Chapter Title: Typhoon
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[A typhoon has struck the island.]
[The typhoon will last for 5 days. Quest rewards will increase 5-fold during this period.]
[Special rewards will be given to players who survive until the end.]
This was an event that reeked of survival vibes.
Or maybe it felt like a cruel prank.
We'd barely adjusted to this sweltering island, and now a typhoon out of nowhere.
"Whoa, it's so refreshing!"
"Phew. Finally, I can breathe."
The girls on either side of me spread their arms wide, beaming with joy.
The fierce whipping winds and raindrops soaking our bodies were quickly cooling our overheated skin.
'The other kids are probably reacting the same way.'
They'd be thrilled to escape the stifling heat, bouncing around without a care.
Blind to how this storm would soon tighten around their necks.
'To rescue those half-dead porgies, I need to move as fast as possible.'
"Let's head out."
"Yes!"
I led the group toward our temporary base.
Whoosh. Whoooosh.
The wind was brutal.
Towering palm trees swayed wildly. Some shrieked as they bent.
Still, with heights well over twenty meters, the gusts barely reached us down below.
Raindrops slipping past the palm fronds merely soaked the ground in a hurry.
'The forest really was the answer after all.'
The deeper we ventured in, the calmer the winds grew.
Not that they vanished entirely. Gusts still whipped through the tree trunks, tousling our hair roughly.
But compared to the massive palms shaking violently overhead, this was laughably mild.
'Things must be getting chaotic by now.'
Splash, splash. Water squelched under our shoes. It'd only been a couple of hours of rain, yet it was already pooling deep inside the forest.
Tiny waves rippled between the trees, washing past us and vanishing on the other side.
'The coast has to be even worse.'
The joy the kids were feeling now would soon sour into worry, then twist into terror once it became reality.
And that shift wouldn't take long at all.
Not when water was rising this fast after just two hours.
La la la~
Of course, none of that applied to our group.
The twins hummed cheerfully. Two little heads poked into Han Jiwon's sleeping bag, toddling along like a train game.
Beside them, Kim Yeonju and Teacher Lee Sujung chatted away, laughing like they were on a picnic. Next to them, science teacher Park Soyoung joined in with a grin.
No matter how hard the storm raged or how the island flooded, they didn't bat an eye.
They'd just catch my gaze now and then, wave with a smile, and that was it.
'Our side's perfectly serene.'
The leisure of the privileged.
Seeing this, I could almost understand how the elite stayed indifferent while the economy crumbled and the masses wailed.
Historically, when nations declined, those at the top lived even more lavishly, didn't they?
"We're here."
"Wow!"
When we finally reached the temporary base, they hopped around like kids at a real campsite, thrilled.
"Did you see that, Teacher Sujung? This is what Seohee and I made."
"It's amazing. Science teachers really can do anything!"
"Heh. Pretty much."
Park Soyoung puffed up with pride, and Teacher Lee Sujung clapped, hyping her up.
"Alright, everyone. Enough chatter—get inside."
I herded them into the boats, stuffing each with heaps of food, water, and supplies.
We'd be with the class kids for a while, so I packed generously.
"Yuri, Yejin. Pace yourselves with those strawberries. Don't gobble them all at once."
Munch, munch.
'...Not even listening anymore.'
Whatever. Guess they'd just sweat bullets while I was gone again.
I had no intention of drilling manners into them, but they always created these situations themselves.
What a headache.
'Speaking of problems.'
As I handed out rations, one issue hit me.
[Daily Quest 2: Obtain 600ml or more of drinking water]
I'd sold all the water, so no completing the daily now.
Buying more? No storage. Buy and resell? Massive loss.
And trading water back and forth 400 times with the girls in this downpour? They'd think I was nuts, no matter how much they adored me.
'What to do.'
Then someone tapped my arm.
"...Where do I go?"
It was Han Jiwon.
Oh, right. She was here.
"Jiwon. Come with me for a sec."
"?"
I handed her a bottle of water.
Han Jiwon listened to my explanation, snorted once, then passed it back and forth repeatedly.
She stared blankly into space and asked,
"How many more times to clear the daily?"
"Seven left."
"Ten times a day?"
"Something like that."
I opened my bestiary.
The list scrolled up, showing my hunted targets one by one.
I scrolled down to Han Jiwon's entry and paused.

I skipped the rest and focused on her ability, Insight.
『Insight: Peek into detailed info of any target in sight. If the target is a player, view their status window thoroughly.』
'When I asked her before, this was her answer.'
-Any others who awakened?
-She shakes her head no.
Her expression had been certain back then.
I'd chalked it up to her smarts, but no.
Han Jiwon could detect awakeners and peer into their details.
She was doing the same now with my daily quest progress.
She could spy on it in real-time.
In a way, it outclassed my bestiary.
But I shook my head.
'That's why she never pitched it to me.'
Not great. Sure, a solid ability, but useless here.
Only two awakeners on this island—us. What good was it?
'Her desperate clinging makes sense now.'
She'd peeked at my shop window too, all its endless potential.
The more you know, the more desperate you get. That's why she'd begged, clung, and now obeyed me utterly.
'Still, keeping her around might pay off someday.'
She'd spot new awakeners right away.
"Eut."
"Tired? Wanna rest first?"
Trading a 2kg water bottle 400 times wasn't easy for a girl.
Han Jiwon nodded faintly.
"Yeah."
We sat on the ground for a break. Water had risen to ankle-depth, sloshing around.
The rubber boats bobbed, ready to float any minute.
Darkness closed in, rain thickening.
'Flood everywhere.'
In that short time, Han Jiwon had flipped her sleeping bag over her head and dozed off.
Her head bobbed, wet black hair shimmering beautifully with each sway.
'She's consistent, I'll give her that.'
Tap her forehead—no wake-up. Bobbing away. But tease her weak spot, those breasts—
She stirred awake slowly, yawned, and looked at me.
"Jiwon."
"Yeah."
"Turn around. Let me check if your anus has healed."
Her pale ass slipped out from the sleeping bag, presented to me.
Good—tightly closed.
I'd worried I'd wrecked it beyond repair, but bodies are tougher than they seem.
'She takes beatings from Kang Hye-rin daily and lives, so yeah.'
"Wanna do it?"
Han Jiwon peeked from her bag and asked.
"Don't wanna?"
"No, I do."
I do?
International High's ultimate slacker, who yawned through everything with a bored face, just said she wanted to?
Reading my expression, she looked down and murmured,
"It was my first time feeling that hot and intense... Got me curious."
"......"
"You're the first to excite and unravel me. Not Dad, Mom, or the doctors."
They probably never pushed her to near-death like I did.
Old saying: The stick is medicine.
Her nerves were dull, but not severely enough for major treatment.
So when I railed her, she came hard and squirted like a fountain.
'Just no one ever went all-in on her precious self before.'
Han Jiwon wiggled her ass enticingly before me.
Blushing, hand over her mouth, she peeked with pretty eyes and said,
"You're special. Never met anyone like you. I decided to obey you. So do me like yesterday."
Like yesterday. I chuckled, raised my hand, and smacked her ass with a sharp crack.
"Next time. Promise."
"Why? Did I mess up...?"
"Nah. Your pussy and ass are both swollen. Fucking now would be bad. Wait till they heal."
Virgin holes, pounded over twelve hours straight. No way they'd be fine. She needed rest—for real.
Not the only reason, though. I was busy. Had to check on the class kids ASAP.
'She's the type who barely feels it anyway.'
Satisfy her fully, and I might burn another twelve hours.
Half-ass it just to finish? She'd be disappointed, ditching her rare spark of interest.
"Once you're healed, I'll fill you up good."
I soothed her gently as I refused. But it backfired, fueling her more.
She scooted close, draped the sleeping bag over my head, and kissed me deeply.
Smack. Smooch. Smooch.
Rain faded; she felt impossibly close. Like the world vanished, leaving just us in our bubble.
Like rain pattering outside a mountain cabin, us alone inside.
She pulled back and said,
"You're kind. Never met anyone like you. I like you. So do me."
I snapped to, stroked her head.
"Hold out a bit. Gotta take care of your body."
"But..."
"You get what I mean, right?"
...Nod.
"Then when I get back, fuck me first thing."
"Sure, sure."
After soothing her properly, I tucked her in with Teacher Lee Sujung and Kim Yeonju.
The boats now floated, rocking gently.
"Master's not coming in? What're you doing?"
"Gonna grab Seohee and be back. No fighting, behave. Especially Jiwon—pussy and ass are swollen, so Kim Yeonju, no forcing her just to vent your lust."
"Boobs okay then?"
"Hmm. No boobs either. I roughed 'em up pretty good."
"Tch. Not much left to tease."
Kim Yeonju eyed Han Jiwon's body hungrily, licking her lips.
Whatever. Han Jiwon was already out cold in her bag.
"Anyway, I'm off. Teacher, keep 'em in line."
"Got it. Don't worry—go careful and come back safe!"
I double-checked the boats, then turned away.
Clicked on the hand-crank lantern I'd swiped from the class kids' escape stash way back.
'Our side's set.'
Daily quest cleared too.
+
Five-fold rewards bumped my stamina by 1.5 in one day.
Even physical resistance, which wouldn't budge, went up.
Probably tied to stamina, or total stats maybe.
But the real win? Han Jiwon warming up to me.
'Phew. Time to see what the kids are up to.'
I waded through water up to my calves.
For some reason, it felt like a good night was ahead.
Yeah, that certainty grew stronger.
