Who’s Threatening You with a Knife?
To get straight to the point, this birth was a failure.
Fourth Skill Who Is Threatening You with a Knife? has been born.
Who Is Threatening You with a Knife?
It dramatically amplifies any fear or anxiety the target woman feels toward the user.
Stimulating that fear causes the woman to obey the user completely.
Once used, the effect disappears, but it leaves a permanent subconscious imprint that instills deep submission toward the protagonist.
In simple terms, it heightens whatever fear a woman already harbors toward me.
If used well, it could even let me pull off all kinds of threats.
The problem was that my target just happened to be Seong Miyeon.
‘There’s no way Seong Miyeon feels any fear toward me.’
Does a bully even have anything she’s actually scared of?
She lives for her own arrogance. The idea of her fearing someone like me is ridiculous.
To be brutally honest, I’m not the type of guy anyone would find intimidating—even if it wasn’t Seong Miyeon.
If anything, people would probably just look down on me.
It would’ve been nice if I’d been reborn as some ultra-charismatic golden boy instead.
“Haah… The effect itself is great, but it’s a shame I don’t have anywhere to use it.”
All the previous skills could be used without any conditions.
This one feels personally disappointing.
Then again, I’ve only been birthing S-rank (?) skills so far.
It was bound to happen eventually.
“Well, I can’t just let it rot, so I’ll have to burn it off quickly tomorrow.”
Too bad. The fourth skill is getting discarded fast.

The next day.
I stopped by the department room before class.
As always, it was the best place to study alone.
Lately I’d been neglecting my studies because of all the sex with Seong Miyeon.
I wanted to finish my assignments as quickly as possible.
‘…Seong Miyeon said she’d handle the presentation herself. So I just need to focus on my part.’
I was deep in organizing my materials when—
“Wah! Excuse me~”
The door burst open and someone barged in.
It was Baek Seohee, my junior and former idol.
The moment she saw me, her face openly fell in disappointment.
“…What? It’s just you, sunbae.”
“I told you before. No one else comes here.”
I really wished she wouldn’t show up either.
I’d planned to keep this place as my personal utopia for the whole semester.
Her random pop-ins were starting to make me nervous.
“Why do you keep coming here?”
“Why~? Am I not allowed to come here?”
“It’s not that you’re not allowed… but there’s never anyone else around.”
“Why wouldn’t there be? You’re here, sunbae.”
Baek Seohee plopped down on the sofa right next to me.
The way her chest bounced with the motion was incredible.
“I come here to see you, sunbae. That’s why.”
Me? She comes to see me?
This cute, beautiful, idol-tier junior?
Has spring finally arrived for me?
“I was wondering if Seong Miyeon sunbae might be here with you, that’s all.”
Yeah. Of course not.
I hadn’t let myself imagine the two of us holding hands and watching our grandkids together or anything.
But why was Seong Miyeon’s name coming up here?
“Why would she come here?”
“You and Seong Miyeon sunbae just feel… suspicious, you know?”
“Like hell we do. I already explained it properly last time. It was just a joke.”
“Hmm~ Is that really true~? The Seong Miyeon sunbae I know would rather die than pull a prank like that~?”
…She’s weirdly sharp about the strangest things.
She has no idea we’ve been having backdoor sex at my place, of course.
“Are you two really not doing anything?”
“Would someone like her even have any business with a guy like me?”
“There you go dodging again. But you can’t dodge my eyes. I’m sure there’s something going on.”
Baek Seohee stared straight at my face.
Having such a pretty girl right in front of me made my heart pound.
Must be the idol aura.
Her face is tiny, and her eyes are adorable.
‘So the saying that idols look even prettier in real life than on camera is true.’
Every single pore looks perfect.
Sitting this close, I almost wondered if we were even the same species.
“Tsk. Not here? Guess this operation’s a failure.”
“What operation?”
“I was thinking maybe you and Seong Miyeon sunbae were doing something naughty, so I launched a surprise attack.”
…She’s been imagining stuff like that?
Honestly, I’d had the same fantasy about secretly doing it here.
I’ll have to be more careful from now on.
“Why is an idol having dirty thoughts like that?”
“Because you’re always hanging out alone in the department room, sunbae.”
“So?”
“A guy and a girl alone together in a place no one ever visits. It’s pretty obvious what could happen, right?”
…Does she not realize what kind of situation she’s in right now?
Or does she really not see me as a man at all?
You’d think an idol would at least be wary of guys.
‘If she were scared of me, I could test out the new skill I just got.’
…No, that’s probably not a good idea.
She’s a fresh, innocent idol junior.
Seong Miyeon had been using and mocking me for ages, so I had justification there.
But messing with an idol still feels wrong.
“What a shame~ I thought I might finally catch some dirt on you.”
“You’ve been really fixated on Seong Miyeon for a while now.”
“Hehe! I guess Seong Miyeon sunbae hasn’t told you anything about me?”
I vaguely knew the two of them shared some secret.
I just never felt like digging into it.
Seong Miyeon doesn’t seem like the type who enjoys talking about that kind of thing anyway.
“Hmm~ If Seong Miyeon sunbae hasn’t even told you, then no one else probably knows either.”
She’s making some strange assumptions.
To Seong Miyeon, I shouldn’t even register as a person.
“Hehe! Do you want to know? I could tell you if it’s you, sunbae.”
“No, I’m good.”
I shook my head.
I had zero interest in getting dragged into messy girl drama.
“If she’s not saying anything, there must be a reason.”
“What? That’s so boring. You’re not even curious?”
“It’s none of my business. Knowing wouldn’t change anything between us anyway.”
“…”
Even if I learned her weakness, Seong Miyeon probably wouldn’t care about me at all.
She’d handle her own problems.
I’m perfectly satisfied just using my Pregnancy Skill to enjoy her ass and pussy.
“…Ah, I’m a little annoyed right now.”
“Huh? What did you say?”
“Nothing~ It’s nothing at all~”
I could’ve sworn she just said she was annoyed.
This is exactly why girls are scary.
I made a firm mental note to never get involved between them.
Watching Baek Seohee flash that strangely terrifying smile, I swore to myself.

After attending the lecture on time.
Just as planned, I met up with Seong Miyeon quickly.
Actually, saying “as planned” might be inaccurate.
She was the one who called me first.
‘…Why is she still scared of me after we’ve had sex multiple times?’
Shouldn’t she be treating me more gently and acknowledging me as a man by now?
“Hey, loser.”
Same arrogant attitude as always.
Still, I’d grown to like that fiery personality of hers.
The gap between her usual strong demeanor and the pathetic way her pussy behaved during sex was fantastic.
Of course, I could only think like this thanks to the Pregnancy Skill.
“Yesterday was pretty great, huh? Taking my pictures, then fucking me senseless.”
Seong Miyeon smiled brightly at me.
Only her expression was smiling—the aura around her was downright murderous.
Now that the Pregnancy Skill had worn off, she seemed to have come back to her senses.
“You even got to fuck me once. Our little loser’s grown up quite a bit, hasn’t he?”
“Ahem! Ahem! You enjoyed it just as much, didn’t you? The way you were about to pass out when I took you from behind—”
“Sh-shut up!”
Seong Miyeon’s face flushed bright red.
Wow. I actually talked back to Seong Miyeon.
Kim Jihun, you’ve really come a long way. Congratulations.
It’s all thanks to my babies.
“If you breathe a word of that outside, you’re dead, got it?”
“…Yes, ma’am.”
Looks like the power dynamic between the bully and the loser hasn’t changed much.
“So why’d you call me?”
“…You already know, right? I was out of my mind yesterday.”
“Why do you lose your mind so often?”
“Don’t ask. I feel like I’m about to lose it again for a completely different reason.”
Seong Miyeon would probably never learn in her lifetime that it was because of my Pregnancy Skill.
She’d just keep wondering why her body kept betraying her.
There was a strange sense of superiority in knowing I was the only one who understood the truth.
“More importantly… those, um, perverted pictures you took before.”
“The bikini shots?”
“Yeah. Those.”
They really were incredible.
Seong Miyeon’s body was so voluptuous that the black bikini looked absurdly good on her.
I still had those photos saved like treasures in a special folder on my laptop.
“Delete all of them.”
What the hell? This was terrible news.
“Why? That’d be such a waste.”
“They’re pictures of me. So obviously you should delete them.”
“Hold on, Seong Miyeon. Did you forget you let me take them in exchange for the sex? This is a problem.”
“You enjoyed the sex just as much. You were practically obsessed with my ass the whole time.”
I did enjoy it, but that was beside the point.
The photos of Seong Miyeon wearing nothing but a bikini in my studio apartment were especially precious to me.
“Besides, the condition you gave me was for the photoshoot. The pictures from that are separate.”
“Where’s that written in the rules?”
“You should’ve negotiated better. Consider it a life lesson.”
I can’t believe she’s pulling out this kind of nonsense logic.
She must be really desperate.
“As you know, I’m a model. And I’m on track to become one of the top models in Korea.”
Her confidence was still overwhelming.
But it was confidence with solid grounds.
Seong Miyeon’s looks and body were truly top-class.
With her good grades too, she was set to walk a golden path as an ace model.
“My bikini photos are incredibly valuable. Why should I let some random civilian keep them? If they leak, it’ll damage my career.”
“I wasn’t planning on showing them to anyone.”
“That’s what you say now. You might get dirty ideas later, or they could leak without you even realizing.”
“Hmm.”
I could understand where she was coming from.
She’d been so consumed by lust at the time that she’d allowed it.
But now that she’d calmed down, she was clearly anxious.
“If you refuse, I won’t hold back either. I could spread weird rumors around the department and ruin you.”
“Hey. That’s way too dirty.”
“Is taking pictures of a girl in a bikini any less dirty?”
I didn’t think Seong Miyeon would actually do something like that because of her pride.
The fact that she was threatening me this hard just to get the photos deleted showed how serious she was.
I could tell she’d come fully prepared this time.
“…Of course, I’m not asking you to delete them for free.”
Seong Miyeon glanced at me cautiously before continuing.
“You like my breasts, right? I’ll let you touch them again like last time.”
“I’ve already touched them three times. Not really interested.”
“You fucking bastard. Is that something you say to a woman?”
Seong Miyeon lightly kicked my thigh.
It actually stung a bit—she must work out a lot.
“…If you beg nicely, I can let you do more than just my breasts.”
“Like what? You’ll let me have your ass? Or have sex again?”
“You really are a mood-killing loser. Do I have to spell it out for you?”
Seong Miyeon growled at me like she wanted to bite my head off.
“I’m only offering because you said my breasts alone aren’t enough. I’m just trying to let you touch whatever else you want and be done with it.”
As she spoke, Seong Miyeon suddenly frowned hard.
“Now that I think about it, this is ridiculous. Hey. Do you have any idea how many guys would kill to touch my breasts? And you’re turning that down?”
“Well, I have touched them plenty already.”
“Anyone listening would think you’re some alpha male. A loser acting all high and mighty.”
Well, saying I was tired of them was a lie.
No matter how many times I touched Seong Miyeon’s breasts, they always felt electric.
‘Still, the way she’s acting… it feels like she might offer even more if I play this right.’
If I could delete the photos and get to touch the real thing, it was definitely a win.
I’d already tasted her naked body thoroughly, so there wasn’t much point obsessing over bikini photos anymore.
‘But it still feels like a waste to just delete them.’
These weren’t just any photos—they were bikini shots of Seong Miyeon.
Don’t people usually use stuff like this for blackmail in porn?
This time I was the one being asked for a favor.
Just like when I posted that explanation in the department group chat, I should at least get some kind of service—whether it was her breasts or something else…
‘Wait. Blackmail?’
Come to think of it, wasn’t Seong Miyeon actually afraid of these photos?
Scared they might leak or get spread around.
Or that I might use them to threaten her.
‘She’s so scared that she came running and is even half-threatening me to delete them.’
It matched the skill’s condition perfectly.
I’d already been thinking of it as a throwaway skill anyway.
Testing it out didn’t seem like a bad idea.
I immediately activated Who Is Threatening You with a Knife?.
“…Huh?”
Seong Miyeon’s face instantly turned deathly pale.
Fear flooded into the eyes looking at me.
The change was so clear I noticed it immediately.
‘This… the effect is better than I expected.’
Her shoulders were trembling, and her gaze kept dropping to avoid mine.
Her expression was visibly filling with terror in real time.
But she didn’t try to run away.
It was as if something even worse was holding her in place.
“D-delete them….”
Seong Miyeon reached out and desperately clutched my sleeve.
Like a victim chased by a killer finally reaching the police and begging to be saved.
“P-please. Please delete those photos.”
“Uh, um?”
“I’ll do anything if you just delete them. Please don’t show those pictures to anyone. Okay? Jihun.”
“Um, ahem! Ahem! What should I do…”
The Pregnancy Skill really left me in awe every single time.
Was this really the same Seong Miyeon I knew?
Those anxiously trembling pupils made me feel my heart softening on its own.
‘Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be this effective.’
I’d thought she’d just get a little scared at most.
To think she’d throw away all her pride like this.
Even if the skill amplified her fear, this was extreme.
I never imagined she’d come crawling this low, begging and pleading over some photos.
“Please…!”
Seong Miyeon suddenly dropped to her knees right in front of me.
Whoa.
I swallowed hard.
To think I’d live to see Seong Miyeon on her knees.
Not just anyone—Seong Miyeon.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at me.
Her face was a desperate attempt to please me.
“P-please, just this once. I-I’ll do anything… So please, just once…”
Let me be clear here—I’m only human.
It’s human nature to want payback for what you’ve suffered.
Seong Miyeon, who had subtly tormented me all this time.
Seeing her so restless and anxious like this…
‘This feels pretty damn good.’
It was like some sadistic side of me I never knew existed was finally raising its head.
