‘What the hell is this guy doing here again?’
I gestured to Han Yu-ra to fall back and stay out of sight.
“Hold on a sec. How did Hyuk-jin know to come here? Don’t tell me you called him, Joo-hyuk…?”
Han Yu-ra furrowed her brow and shot me a suspicious glance.
“Even if you look at me like that, I have no idea.”
The mood was already ruined anyway, and curiosity was getting the better of me, so I decided to step out of the tent for a moment. If I ignored him, he might just stand there outside and make things awkward for everyone.
The moment I stepped out, Choi Hyuk-jin bowed his head politely toward me.
“Hyung! You’re still up? I hope I’m not disturbing your sleep.”
“Nah, it’s fine. But what’s up all of a sudden?”
“It’s nothing major, but after yesterday and today, you’ve been taking time out of your schedule to train us personally. I came as a representative of the summoners to say thank you.”
Hyuk-jin spoke with genuine gratitude in his voice.
Over the past two days, aside from the times I was personally training Han Yu-ra or had to step out for business, I’d been deeply involved in the summoners’ activities at the base, steadily building rapport whenever I could.
The training was part of that rapport-building. Unlike the other tasks, though, it was a massive hassle. So I’d picked out a few promising ones with real enthusiasm and trained them directly.
It was nothing fancy—just basic hunter maneuvers strung together.
But for summoners starting from absolute rock bottom, it seemed to make a real difference.
“Eh, it’s no big deal. Don’t sweat it.”
I gave a vague response, hoping Choi Hyuk-jin would take the hint and leave quickly.
“Aw, come on, it’s a huge deal. Every little bit helps… Huh? Why’s Yu-ra noona here?”
Choi Hyuk-jin must have peeked through the slightly open tent flap.
I glanced back casually. Han Yu-ra was staring at me with a startled expression, like she hadn’t expected to get caught.
‘Should’ve used camouflage or hidden in the corner properly. Ji-hye… must be using spirit assimilation? She’s completely invisible.’
I let out a quiet sigh inwardly.
“Oh, Yu-ra? She came by to consult me about base operations. We were just chatting.”
“Noona, is that true?”
“Yeah…”
“…Speaking of the base, that reminds me—I’ve got a suggestion. Hyung, mind if I come in and talk about it together?”
‘……This guy?’
He was either clueless or completely oblivious to the atmosphere. One or the other.
But I didn’t have a good excuse to turn him down outright, and there was no way I was letting some random guy into my tent for idle chit-chat.
So instead, I just called Han Yu-ra over to my side.
“It’ll be quick, right? Let’s just talk here.”
“Why?”
“Why? Ji-hye’s in there too, not just me. She’s sleeping right now.”
“Oh, right, yeah. Slipped my mind. Tell Ji-hye noona I’m sorry.”
“So, what’s this about?”
“It’s not much… When we got attacked at the base last time…”
Hyuk-jin spoke earnestly about how, beyond just farming points for survival on Tower Floor 1, the summoners needed to face a variety of monster types for the future.
‘A variety of monsters? Why bother? Just hunt ones on your level and farm points. Don’t overthink it.’
It was like livestock debating welfare and rights when they’d be fattened up and slaughtered someday.
In short, not worth responding to.
“That makes some sense, but you and the others aren’t fully comfortable with your classes yet, right? In my opinion, real combat is good, but…”
I figured a half-hearted reply would send him packing, but Han Yu-ra seemed taken by his enthusiasm and was responding with full effort.
Or maybe she just wanted to kill time talking to him instead of our training session.
‘But what’s this guy really after?’
The point was obvious from the start. He was just latching onto whatever Han Yu-ra said to drag out the conversation.
‘Does this punk have a thing for Han Yu-ra?’
As a guy, taking an interest in her wasn’t weird. Honestly, she had the looks, the body, the skills—everything.
But approaching a woman I’d already claimed, with impure intentions? No way I could let that slide.
‘First chance I get, kill him.’
I silently added him to my hit list.
To calm myself down—and taking advantage of Hyuk-jin’s gaze fixed on Han Yu-ra—I slipped my fingers under her skirt and gently stroked between her ass cheeks.
“Summoners filling in each other’s weak spots… Eek!?”
Her body jolted hard from the sudden stimulation.
“Noona, you look pale. You okay?”
Hyuk-jin looked at her with concern.
“N-No… it’s nothing. Just… a bit tired.”
Han Yu-ra made excuses to Hyuk-jin while shooting me a glare that screamed stop it.
But telling me to stop just made me want to do it more.
Careful to keep my hand out of Hyuk-jin’s sight, I grabbed her plump ass hard.
“Hmph!?”
Her body stiffened instantly.
I didn’t care—my hand stayed under her skirt, kneading that firm, bouncy flesh.
The soft, springy feel filled my palm.
‘Truly a massage-worthy ass.’
Han Yu-ra wasn’t taking it lying down. She grabbed my hand with both of hers, pinching and pushing to stop me—a little act of resistance.
“Ow.”
And it actually worked pretty well.
My strength and agility stats outclassed hers, but that didn’t mean I felt no pain.
I chuckled dryly at my reddened hand.
‘Oh? This bitch thinks she can fight back?’
She looked relieved, chatting with Hyuk-jin again, so I hiked up her skirt a bit, spread her cheeks, gripped the end of the bead peeking out of her asshole, and slowly pulled it backward.
“Hrgh…!?”
Her voice was so quiet Hyuk-jin noticed nothing.
Tzuzuzuk.
As the large slime-core bead slid past the tight ring with a slick sound, Han Yu-ra bit her lip, straining to stifle her moans. Her massive cheeks twitched in real time. I could feel her clenching her sphincter desperately to hold it in.
But between pulling and resisting, mine was overwhelmingly stronger.
Pop. With a small sound, the huge anal bead popped out. Han Yu-ra bent forward, arched her back, and squirted pussy juice onto the ground.
Pfshhh.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Acquired 7 Essences. From my view, her pussy was clenching and unclenching its labia nonstop from the orgasm.
“Noona!?”
As Hyuk-jin moved to approach, I held out a hand to stop him, then pretended to support her while whispering in her ear.
“Behave yourself. You wanna look like a slut in front of him?”
At my threat, Han Yu-ra panted heavily, quickly recovered from her climax, and put on a casual face.
“Thanks for worrying, Hyuk-jin. I’m fine, really. Just a dizzy spell.”
She looked perfectly normal on the surface.
“Why the suspicious look? I’m telling you, it’s true. A little rest and I’ll be good.”
Hyuk-jin couldn’t stand up to her mildly scolding tone and just nodded meekly.
“O-Okay…”
“Alright, Hyuk-jin. I’ll take responsibility for Yu-ra and make sure she rests. Once she’s better, I’ll walk her back myself, so you can head out.”
It was a clear dismissal.
‘He’s gotta get the hint now.’
As he turned to leave, Hyuk-jin persisted.
“Hyung, is Yu-ra noona really okay?”
“How should I know? If you’re that worried, buy her a potion or something. They’re only 1000 points.”
Hyuk-jin gave a wry smile at my words.
“Even if you’re you, hyung, I don’t have that kind of cash.”
“Fair enough. Anyway, tomorrow’s training will be brutal, so get some rest.”
*
After bidding Hyuk-jin farewell, Han Yu-ra was waiting for me. She’d carefully closed and soundproofed the tent flap, then yelled at me angrily.
“Joo-hyuk! We agreed no messing around in front of others!”
“Did we? I don’t remember that.”
I played dumb outright, and she glared at me in disbelief.
“If you keep this up, I won’t go along with your games anymore!”
I chuckled at her bold words, stepped up beside her, and without a word yanked the anal beads still lodged in her ass.
Pong! Pong!
The second and third beads buried deep in her rectum popped out in an instant from the forceful pull.
“Hiiiiiik…!!!”
From the sudden jolt, Han Yu-ra collapsed right there, exposing her dripping pussy and twitching asshole in front of me.
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Acquired 9 Essences. “Watch your mouth. You’re the one who begged me to stay in this pathetic cave, Han Yu-ra.”
As punishment for flirting and smiling at another man right in front of me, I planned to stuff her ass with even more slime-core beads than usual tonight.
‘Her anal training’s almost done anyway. Soon, I’ll fuck her proper and teach her who’s on top.’
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ Meanwhile, at that very moment.
“Whoa… so naughty…”
Ariel was watching everything unfold inside the tent in her invisible state, holding her breath.
She gulped unconsciously as she saw Han Yu-ra crumbling helplessly under Kim Joo-hyuk’s expert touch.
“My god…! All those huge slime cores fitting in her ass…!”
To Ariel, Kim Joo-hyuk’s anal training of Han Yu-ra was shocking yet intensely fascinating.
There had been 32 Earth summonings so far, including this one, but his actions were off-the-wall even by upper-floor standards—defying common sense, which drew her in even more.
Ariel couldn’t hide her excitement at Han Yu-ra’s hypocrisy: hating it with her mouth while her pussy drooled nonstop. She was completely immersed in the scene.
That’s why she didn’t notice someone sneaking up behind her.
“Ariel, what’s so fun to watch?”
“Kyaaak!”
Ariel jumped in shock at the sly voice by her ear and whipped around.
There stood Fellios, leaning down with a wicked grin, looking right at her.
“Fellios-nim!? W-Well, this is…”
“Mm, Ariel. You were watching Kim Joo-hyuk like I told you. Good girl.”
Fellios stroked Ariel’s hair gently, like praise. But Ariel couldn’t just be happy about it.
“Y-Yes…! I-I was monitoring him! But Fellios-nim, why’d you take so long? What’d the upper floors say?”
Ariel asked, hiding her anxiety as best she could.
“Checked with the upper floors. No issues.”
Ariel sighed in genuine relief. She’d been worried Kim Joo-hyuk might violate Tower rules and get purged by the system.
But Fellios’s next words shattered that relief.
“But checking his data, I found something fun. He’s got an unknown ability not logged in the Tower system? I thought the world outside was just a normal place without powers.”
Fellios swiped the air. The Floor 1 system reacted instantly.
A flood of data holograms unfolded from her fingertips. In seconds, she’d grasped every major and minor event on Floor 1.
“So I requested and got discretionary authority to handle it myself.”
“A-And… what now?”
Ariel’s voice trembled. Fellios met her eyes and flashed a demonic, cruel smile.
“Nothing much. If an irregular shows up, eliminate it before it messes up the Tower’s ecosystem. Floor 1’s always prepared for this, right?”
Fellios’s yellow eyes gleamed coldly. To Kim Joo-hyuk, it was a death sentence. Ariel looked at her anxiously but could do nothing.
Snap!
Fellios snapped her fingers, summoning a console for managing, controlling, and manipulating Floor 1’s system. She input codes with practiced ease.
Tak. Takatak.
It was the code to activate the hidden emergency protocol of Floor 1’s trial.
As Ariel watched, one log entry in Kim Joo-hyuk’s data log stood out starkly.
⚔ STATUS ⚔ 📊 Summoner Kills: 395 Ariel gulped involuntarily at the outrageous kill count.
‘Th-This! Way too many!!’
