Lotte World
After sex, exhausted Lee Chaerin fell asleep.
Only then could Kang Dohyun and Kang Dohun finally have a conversation.
"Dinner's ready."
The brothers began their conversation while eating the dinner Kim Suah had prepared.
"Hyung, what happened? I heard from Suah-ssi, but tell me more details."
"Ah, so what happened is…"
Dohyun explained in detail what had transpired over the past ten days while eating.
"So you took care of those Japanese spies at NC Department Store?"
"Yeah, and in the process, I kidnapped that girl who has a trait that grants skills as a bonus."
"But that spy girl got attached to you in just six days?"
"That's right."
After hearing his brother's explanation, Kang Dohun nodded as if he understood. Dohyun then asked his brother.
"How have you been spending the past ten days?"
"I've been wandering around Songjeong and hunting a lot."
Dohun had hunted so much that he'd raised his level by two, reaching level 26.
"And I found something interesting."
"What is it?"
"Hyung, there's a party preparing to clear a dungeon. Should we join them?"
Dohun had found something more interesting than he'd expected.
Near Songjeong, east of Haeundae New Town, there were five dungeons. Lotte World, Lotte Outlet, IKEA, Yonggungsa, and Ananti Cove — five areas had transformed into dungeons. But one party was gathering people to attack the Lotte World dungeon.
"Lotte World dungeon?"
"Yeah, they say it's the easiest dungeon."
"Is that so?"
Dohyun listened in detail to his brother's story while eating.
When night fell and everyone else was asleep, Dohyun quietly took to his drone and set off.
'This comes in handy at times like this.'
Thanks to the Cat's Eye skill he'd acquired recently, operating at night posed no problem at all. Dohyun flew his drone south at high speed.
He arrived at the area where Lotte World was located. Since Dohyun didn't know much about the Lotte World dungeon either, he checked it out himself.
'Ah, right.'
The color of the barrier surrounding Lotte World was yellow — it really was an easy dungeon. The party Dohun had mentioned wasn't preparing with wrong information.
'Of course, if it's a famous dungeon, I'd know about it.'
If there was a dungeon Dohyun had never heard of, it was most likely one that had been cleared relatively early on, or one that hadn't lasted a full year.
The next morning.
After the sun rose, Dohyun's group got up.
"Let's eat."
Kim Suah, who was always up early, had woken up a bit earlier and prepared breakfast in advance. All four of them ate together.
"Dohun and I will be going out again today. Suah-ssi, I'll leave the slave in your care."
Kim Suah nodded, but Lee Chaerin turned pale and begged.
"M-Master, it hurts so much. Please, please forgive me."
When Dohyun wasn't around, the only way to cure her headache was to reach orgasm, but Kim Suah only gave her a handjob once an hour, leaving her in pain for long stretches.
Chaerin begged like that, but Dohyun didn't change his expression at all.
"Chaerin, you just need to stop having strange thoughts."
"M-Master, please! I can't! I can't do it! Please.. please.."
She wasn't supposed to think of any action that could harm Dohyun even slightly, but for someone who had lived her entire life as a Japanese intelligence agent, it was far too difficult. No matter how hard she tried not to think, her thoughts automatically followed the training she'd been given.
So even though she cried and begged, Dohyun's resolve didn't waver.
"While I'm gone, listen well to Suah-ssi. Unless she tells you to die."
In the end, Dohyun decided once again to leave Chaerin in Kim Suah's care.
After finishing breakfast, Dohyun and Dohun took to their drone and set off. Their destination was a small building near Songjeong, where they would meet the party targeting Lotte World.
As they traveled, Dohyun said to his brother.
"Honestly, a yellow-barrier dungeon is one we could clear easily."
"Really?"
Until now, Dohun had only cleared white-barrier dungeons and knew they were quite difficult. But yellow or green-barrier dungeons were relatively weak.
"If it's that easy, why are we clearing it as a party? If it were me, I'd say let's go clear it even in the middle of the night."
"To get some experience."
They had cleared dungeons together a few times, but Dohun had never cleared one with other people, so Dohyun decided to join this time for the sake of experience.
A small building near Songjeong Station.
When Dohun arrived, a man guarding the entrance acted like he knew him.
"Hey, Dohun! You're here."
Dohun got straight to the point with the man greeting him warmly.
"Where's Hyung Ko?"
"The boss? He's in the boss's room."
But then the man looked at Dohyun standing beside Dohun and asked.
"And who's this with you?"
"He's my hyung."
At the word "hyung," the man guarding the entrance bowed politely.
"I've heard he's an incredible person. Even more amazing than Dohun."
To someone who knew how amazing Dohun was, Dohyun — who was even more amazing — seemed like an extraordinary person.
"Hey, let's go in."
"Sure."
And so Dohyun and Dohun passed through the entrance and went inside the building. It was a building that used to be a large supermarket. Dohun had been here a few times, so he skillfully made his way to the office inside.
"Who's there? Oh, it's Kang Dohun?"
"Yes, Hyung Ko!"
The person Dohun called Hyung Ko was Ko Jae-hyun, the leader of a thirty-person party that operated out of this supermarket.
Ko Jae-hyun. Dohyun barely held back the laughter bubbling up inside him when he saw him.
'Ah, so Jae-hyun-ssi was already acting as a party leader back then.'
Ko Jae-hyun, the mercenary leader who had been active in the Busan and Gyeongnam regions, was a skilled fighter who had also had some acquaintance with Dohyun before the regression.
'He was skilled, but he also had good instincts.'
As expected, his instincts were good this time too — he was preparing to attack a dungeon at a relatively early timing.
"Hyung Ko, this is my hyung, Kang Dohyun."
When his brother introduced him, Ko Jae-hyun smiled and extended his hand.
"I'm Ko Jae-hyun, leader of the Supermarket Party."
"Kang Dohyun."
The two shook hands lightly and exchanged greetings.
Once the greetings were over, Ko Jae-hyun made iced tea by putting green tea bags in cold water, served it, and continued talking.
"Are you here because of the proposal I made to your brother a while ago?"
"Yes, we're here about the Lotte World dungeon raid."
As expected, Ko Jae-hyun got straight to the point, and Dohyun answered straightforwardly.
"Would you like to participate?"
"We do want to participate, but I'd like to be involved a bit more deeply."
"What? How so?"
When Ko Jae-hyun looked curious, Dohyun opened his mouth to just feed him the information.
"It seems like you're preparing several things incorrectly."
Dohyun intended to point out and correct the parts where Ko Jae-hyun was preparing incorrectly. Dohyun pointed it out presumptuously, but Ko Jae-hyun was still smiling.
"I'm always grateful for advice."
He was certainly a mature person.
Dohyun gave Ko Jae-hyun the key advice.
"There's a limit on how many people can enter a dungeon. It varies by dungeon, but on average the limit is twenty. Including reserves, only thirty people should enter."
Ko Jae-hyun, who was experiencing a dungeon for the first time, had prepared one hundred people — far too many.
"Sometimes there are only lots of zombies inside a dungeon, and sometimes there are special undead. You need to employ different tactics depending on the situation."
Ko Jae-hyun had only thought about hunting zombies and hadn't prepared at all for special undead.
"Undead are weak to salt water. You should prepare salt water in case of undead."
Of course he didn't know this either.
"And sometimes there are dungeons that take a long time, but since this is a yellow dungeon, it probably won't be one of those."
Ko Jae-hyun took notes as Dohyun gave his advice and said.
"You're amazing. By any chance, do you have experience clearing dungeons?"
At this question, Dohun glanced at his brother, but Dohyun answered very straightforwardly.
"Yes, I have."
"As expected, you're amazing. Hahaha."
Ko Jae-hyun didn't ask Dohun specific questions about the past. However.
"Please give us more advice. It's really helpful."
With the intention of accepting all of Dohyun's advice, he talked with the brothers for a long while.
After spending six hours just talking with Ko Jae-hyun, the brothers left the supermarket building. As they flew back on their drone, they talked.
"Ah... I'm getting tired of it."
Dohun felt worn out by Ko Jae-hyun's persistent questioning.
"I know."
Dohyun had also known Ko Jae-hyun before the regression, so he'd expected it.
'He was even more persistent at this time.'
Still, he was a good mercenary, so he gladly listened to the questions and answered them.
"Hyung, but the 'Korea (KOREA) Bulletin Board' is really something."
The Korea (KOREA) Bulletin Board had played a significant role in Ko Jae-hyun's preparation for this Lotte World dungeon raid. It was limited information, but they had obtained dungeon information and prepared for the raid through that bulletin board. The fact that yellow-barrier dungeons were weak was also information obtained from the Korea (KOREA) Bulletin Board.
"Fortunately, the bulletin board is being well managed."
The Korea (KOREA) Bulletin Board was exploding in popularity. Since it was the first bulletin board opened through the Status Window system, it naturally became the most widely used one. So various stories circulated in this community, and more people began sharing information to gain popularity.
When the two brothers arrived at their base camp on the drone, chatting about various things.
"Master!"
Lee Chaerin rushed toward Dohyun as if she'd been waiting for him.
"M-Master! Please. Nngh? Put it in my pussy! Quickly!"
At her appearance, wanting her master's cock due to the headache, Dohun made a face of not being able to adapt, but Dohyun was cold.
"Hah, the slave girl crawls over. Where did you learn to keep demanding to be fucked first?"
Dohyun thought she needed education, so he tied her hands and feet again. And he put a gag in her mouth, restraining her once more.
"Mmph.. mmph! Mmph!"
Chaerin, suffering from the headache, tried to scream in a struggle, but the sound didn't come out properly.
"As punishment, you'll be left alone for two hours."
"Mmph!!"
Chaerin received the punishment of being left alone for two hours.
And since it was still daytime, the brothers.
"Dohun, how about a sparring match? It's been a while."
"Sounds good."
They began one-on-one sparring training on the building's rooftop.
Chaerin, restrained and in great pain.
Dohyun and Dohun, laughing and sparring while leaving her there.
And Kim Suah, calmly doing laundry right beside them.
It was a very unique atmosphere at Dohyun's group's base camp.
