Chapter 91: The Virgin Married Woman Getdodaje (1)
"Guild Master-nim, it's time."
At her secretary's words, Lee Seol-ran the Sword Queen opened her eyes.
After checking the time, she rose from her seat.
She'd only slept briefly, yet so much time had already passed.
"Understood. The items I requested?"
"Everything has been prepared."
The Sword Queen felt relieved at her secretary's words.
As long as preparations were complete, she could face those creatures with confidence.
"This might be our last chance to drag out the monsters hiding in the shadows and controlling humanity. Maintain vigilance and ensure perfect readiness."
"Understood. Please don't worry."
Exiting the building, she boarded her car.
As the vehicle sped through the streets, Seoul's reconstruction efforts were visibly underway.
"So much time has already passed."
"This may not be the end yet."
The Sword Queen deflected the conversation as she recalled the past.
She remembered his words:
The prophesied Destruction approaches.
Before the coming Destruction, our current reality means nothing.
"Welcome, Sword Queen-nim. We've been expecting you."
Before she knew it, the car arrived at the party venue.
The impeccably dressed Sword Queen stepped out to be greeted by a deeply wrinkled old man.
"This way, please."
The old man led as the Sword Queen followed.
After traversing a long corridor, they reached the banquet hall where the party was being held.
"Welcome, Sword Queen-nim. We've been waiting for you."
"I'm Ecardro. There's a Dimensional Gate in my region that..."
"Sword Queen-nim! Sword Queen-nim!"
A crowd swarmed toward her - all people who'd grown up hearing legends of the Sword Queen.
"Thank you, everyone. But now isn't the time for your stories."
"Huh? What do you mean by that?"
She pushed through their praises and demands, moving forward alone.
Waiting didn't suit her temperament.
To minimize casualties, she decided to take initiative.
"Greetings, everyone. Let's skip formalities. If you value your lives, run."
She ascended the stage and seized the host's microphone.
On the surface, this party was hosted by a South American company - a gathering of people repaying debts to the Sword Queen.
But reality differed.
This was a party hosted by the monsters secretly controlling humanity.
Their target was naturally the Sword Queen.
The monsters possessed parasitic traits allowing them to enhance themselves by infesting female hosts.
As the world's strongest woman, the Sword Queen represented their most desirable prey.
"Haah. Seems I'll have to demonstrate directly..."
She drew her sword.
A single flick of the razor-sharp blade.
The host's clothes shredded away.
No nakedness was revealed - his body was covered in leech-like parasitic monsters.
"Kyaaaaah!"
Only then did the crowd grasp the situation's severity.
Screaming guests stampeded toward the exits.
"My, my. Didn't expect such direct action."
"Indeed. Thought she'd at least enjoy the party first. Tsk tsk tsk."
Monsters clicked their tongues as they emerged from hiding.
Their brainwashed female puppets surrounded the venue.
Ten in total.
Each possessed the power of top-tier Rankers.
"Ha. This is all you brought? Should've brought more."
But the Sword Queen showed no fear.
Their numbers were insufficient against her.
Even with all their brainwashed women, victory wasn't assured.
"Couldn't bring more without alerting your intelligence network, could we?"
The monsters had their limitations.
Evading the Sword Queen's surface-world intelligence network restricted their numbers.
"Shall we begin?"
The monsters initiated their assault.
The women encircled the Sword Queen.
A fierce exchange ensued.
The victor was inevitably the Sword Queen.
"Kkh... Still can't match that power."
Half the women retreated, drooling blood.
Combat continuation became impossible.
"Hey! Stop spectating and help!"
"Ah, understood."
A monster materialized from empty air.
A creature with blood-red skin.
The Sword Queen's blade shot toward it.
Clang!
Her sword was deflected.
Seol-hwa, who'd been hiding, blocked the Sword Queen's attack.
"Ha. So you're with the monsters too."
Her reaction suggested anticipation.
The Sword Queen's blade serpentined toward Seol-hwa's neck without hesitation.
"Hahaha! But you didn't expect this, did you?"
The blood-skinned monster swallowed Seol-hwa whole.
The Sword Queen's blade failed to pierce the hardened chitinous membrane.
Tough. Not an opponent to underestimate.
"Children! Meet your mother-in-law!"
The monster's shout drew back a curtain.
Two blood-red silhouettes stepped forward.
Outwardly similar to Seol-hwa.
Their facial blood-skin masks peeled away.
"Seo-ah?"
"Su-a too?"
As their identities became clear, the Sword Queen froze in shock.
"How..."
Her sword wavered.
A tiny crack appeared in her ironclad composure.
"Haha, should've managed your children better."
They mocked her poor parenting.
Seizing the opportunity, they advanced using Seo-ah and Su-a as shields.
Hesitating against her own daughters, the Sword Queen failed to respond properly.
The distance closed. Smirking, the monster whipped its tentacles.
Lash-like tentacles swung.
The Sword Queen's arm vanished.
Traits-enhanced tentacles severed cleanly.
Only the flesh coating Seo-ah and Su-a's bodies was stripped away.
Precise swordsmanship. Su-a and Seo-ah collapsed fleshless.
"I don't know how you transformed my daughters, but this I swear: your death won't be clean."
The Sword Queen pointed her blade at Seol-hwa.
Her killing intent focused into a single point.
'As expected of the Sword Queen... Never underestimate her.'
Cold sweat would've flowed if possible.
"Heh.heh.heh.heh. Did you forget about us, Sword Queen?"
"Just because we've lost our original forms, you look down on us?"
Old men moved their motherfucker bodies to block her path.
Their sacrifice bought time as I prepared the final attack.
Opening a Dimensional Gate, I retrieved the trump card within.
No mercy shown.
The motherfuckers were brutally slaughtered.
All eliminated before regret could register.
"For our God. And our kin."
"This Earth shall become our domain. We'll meet again."
The old men's final words before dying.
No obstacles remained before me.
"Where shall I start?"
She approached slowly.
When the distance narrowed to inches,
I revealed my prepared trump card.
"Sia! It's your mother! Show her your transformed self!"
"Woof! Woof! Woof! Bow-wow!"
Sia came running on all fours, barking like a dog.
Brainwashing had transformed her into a Bitch Candidate.
"Sia too?"
The Sword Queen forgot combat, turning toward the sound.
My chance.
Detaching from Seol-hwa's body, I latched onto the Sword Queen.
"Let go!"
Her thrashing alone began disintegrating me.
Ordinary resistance wouldn't suffice.
"Children! All of you - latch on!"
Using her daughters.
They swarmed her body in human-wave tactics, binding her limbs.
"Bow-wow! Bow-wow!"
Sia bound both arms.
Su-a and Seo-ah pinned her legs.
With limbs restrained, the Sword Queen couldn't properly resist.
"Brainwashing time!"
I attached to her head.
Intense waves pulsed through her skull.
"Gaaargh!"
The Sword Queen screamed.
Unable to regain composure from the waves.
But one attempt wasn't enough.
"Submit! Submit!"
I fired dozens of brainwashing pulses.
Gradually, strength left the Sword Queen's body.
Soon, her eyes glazed over.
'Not fully brainwashed yet?'
Even this wasn't complete control.
She'd soon break free.
Terrifying. Had we faced her directly, we'd have been minced instantly.
"Did... Mom really lose?"
"Yes, we won. In this state, she'll answer anything."
I hammered commands into her - "Submit" and more.
The Sword Queen was now blank slate - obedient to any order.
"Huff... Huff... Mom?"
Sia tilted her head, then asked her question.
"Mom... Who is our father?"
Ah, curious about that.
I too wondered about the triplets' father.
"Th-that is..."
Drool dripped from the Sword Queen's mouth.
She resisted speaking.
Strong. The brainwashing was nearly broken.
Another pulse forced compliance.
"Your father is... the System... itself... The entity granting Hunters their power..."
'What the actual fuck?'
The revealed truth was absurd.
The System? What sudden nonsense was this?
"You sisters... were born to prevent the System's promised Destruction... One day it appeared before me, saying: 'To prevent the coming Destruction, you must bear children...'"
The Sword Queen haltingly revealed the truth.
