[Heroines have a satisfaction meter, right?]
I thought, ‘Yeah, I saw.’
Heo Yun-ji: 5, Song Ji-eun: 6, Han Seo-young: 5.
Song Ji-eun, who'd had her first experience, had shot up to first place.
She must have been pretty satisfied in the bathroom.
[Raise the heroines' satisfaction to 10. That's the first condition for them to switch classes to slave.]
10 was satisfaction MAX.
It meant to satisfy them to the utmost.
‘If that's the first one, there are more conditions.’
[That's right. There's one more condition.]
‘What is it?’
[Receive all the rewards from the heroines. There are basically five, but the number can increase depending on the heroine. They're point rewards, so the more you get, the better.]
‘Fulfill both, and I can make them slaves?’
[The conditions are like that, but there's a final approval step.]
‘Approval?’
[Approval from the person herself. You can't force it. She has to agree to become a slave of her own will for the class change to happen.]
Couldn't force it.
‘It's surprisingly complicated. So much to do?’
[It's a game.]
Ah.
That hit home.
This was a game, after all.
A game being played on the ‘reality’ platform.
[It's reality, but it's a game. That's why tasks keep popping up. Games are like that—quests, missions, events. You'll have to keep doing things like in a game until you clear them.]
‘How much more to clear it?’
[I can't answer questions about the game core. Sorry.]
Sharp on this stuff.
‘At least I figured out how to make slaves.’
Not hard.
Just make them unable to live without me.
To max satisfaction anyway, I'd have to go that far.
Seemed like the system gave me the Dominant trait with that in mind.
‘Yun-ji even asked how to become a slave.’
In this atmosphere, the rest would fall easily too.
[Anything else you're curious about?]
‘No. I'll ask later if something comes up.’
[Then, let me tell you how the game will proceed from here. Think of it as a hint.]
‘That's an upgraded feature too?’
[Part of communication. That's what players are most curious about.]
The game’s ‘objective.’
Changes based on the job chosen.
Doesn't tell you upfront like "do this to clear."
Objective reveals naturally as you gather info along the way.
The AI avatar was giving hints up to that point.
[Securing a vehicle was a good move. It's essential for building a shelter, so manage it well. Things will revolve around the shelter for a while.]
‘Shelter?’
Shelter: a place to protect yourself from natural disasters or external enemies.
Like a bomb shelter or evacuation center for nuclear attacks. Broadly, tents or cabins count as shelters too.
[You can't stay at the starting point forever. You need to move to a place that fits the game's objective. The status window will tell you where, so prepare well. Time's not on your side.]
With that, the avatar vanished.
Not super helpful, but I got the key word ‘shelter.’
This was the starting point, we'd move to a shelter, location via status window, manage the vehicle (camping car), that's what I learned.
I came out of the bathroom and called the group to the living room.
“The system said it'd scout a place to live, but no idea when. Until then, we stay here, so let's decide sleeping spots.”
“Sleeping spots?”
“Yeah. Four squeezed in before, now five.”
Three apartments to the right centering on elevator and emergency stairs, three to the left.
“Bo-ra, there's a decent barricade at the school gate where you were hiding. Pull the wheels off and stand it up—no ordinary person could push it. We'll block the emergency stairs and elevator entrance with it.”
Plan to use the two apartments behind as lodging.
“It feels unsafe without you, Oppa...”
Yun-ji looked pouty.
“I'm basically guarding the door, so don't worry. I cleaned out the gangsters across the street, so it'll be safe for a bit. We won't stay here long anyway.”
I looked at Bo-ra.
“It's inconvenient for me. Bo-ra, you keep holding my dick the whole time you sleep? It's not like we're having sex—if you do that while I'm sleeping, I can't get deep rest.”
She might say "then let's have sex," but sleep needs trump sex drive.
That's why terms like sleep rape exist.
“But it makes me feel safe so I sleep better. And... if I wake up in the middle, I suck it too. Doesn't Master feel good creaming while asleep?”
“What's good about it? You don't even know if I came.”
My senses were heightened from level-ups and naturally sensitive—touching or sucking my dick while asleep wakes me.
Then we'd both be awkwardly awake, so I pretend to sleep.
Feels good, but once awake like that, no deep sleep.
“Ah, you don't notice when asleep. Should I wake you and suck it then?”
“Why wake a sleeping person! Anyway, from today, I sleep alone, got it.”
Their expressions varied.
Yun-ji and Bo-ra looked pleased, Ji-eun missed her chance, Seo-young looked baffled listening to us.
“You two share a place. Go tidy up and grab what you need.”
Sent them off and opened the status window.
To upgrade the water tank.
You can increase the water tank capacity. It costs 1,000 points per 100 liters. Select the capacity you want to add.
300 liters was enough for just Yun-ji and me, but now five people.
‘How much to add?’
Pondering, a lightbulb went off.
I had an AI that could answer anything.
[You called?]
‘Yeah, upgrading water tank. For five people, how many liters?’
[Good question. From 2008 to 2023, average daily water use for a four-person household was 592 liters. One more here, but minimal cooking and drinking water use, so I recommend 600 liters.]
Took the AI's advice and added 300 liters.
Even in a crumbling world, AI was working overtime.
“Gah! Hah... I surrender... spare me, please.”
“Why should I?”
A muscled pig tattooed on shoulders and arms brutally bashed his opponent with a steel pipe.
“That's enough. Let the ones in back go.”
“Yes, Cult Leader.”
Seo Hee-won, the Doomsday Cult Leader who'd escaped Every Mart with a few Chinatown Gang members, was building his forces using the miracle from God (Offense/Defense Ticket).
“Decent numbers this time.”
“Yes, they say Viper Gang has the biggest force around here. Once they see your miracle, Cult Leader, they'll all come under us.”
A gang member pointed at the fallen Viper Gang boss on the floor.
“The more believers, the more miracles I can bestow. Scour nearby shops and apartment complexes—bring back every survivor.”
“Understood, Cult Leader.”
Seo Hee-won distributed daily necessities bought with points to survivors.
Those witnessing such miracles bowed their heads to him without fail.
‘Points are draining fast. Need more followers.’
— Point Shop Access (passive)
— Point Theft (passive)
— Buy One Get One Free (unusable)
— ■■■■■■■■■■
Seo Hee-won clicked his tongue at the translucent window.
Losing the saintess made his new skill unusable.
‘I need the Doomsday Saintess.’
Conveniently, that morning he received the divine revelation he'd awaited.
Capture the Doomsday Saintess to regain skill use. Check nearby saintesses in the ‘Navigation’ menu. Effect lost if she loses her virginity—be careful.
The map from God marked Woojin University Student Union Hall.
Not far from here.
[Roji]
‘A foreign saintess?’
He tilted his head at the name, but anyone reviving his miracles would do.
Lots of survivors at a university student hall.
Meant he'd need to prepare thoroughly too.
‘Need more followers. Can't spam miracles, so numbers at least.’
Seo Hee-won's eyes gleamed sharper than ever at the navigation.
