"So, what exactly have you guys been up to?"
I was supposed to be the silent villain type, but now was the time to speak up. At my question, the thugs with their fierce glares looked like they wanted to stab me with their eyes, but they started spilling their guts one after another.
"We've been distributing drugs in zones 77, 78, and 79!"
"We make over half a million dollars a month, steady as clockwork!"
"We take hits for cash too!"
"We got contracts with prostitution rings, watching their backs!"
"..."
Wow... these bastards were real pieces of shit, huh? Drugs and contract killing to boot?
"I filmed child porn and sold it for top dollar!"
"..."
"..."
The hideout fell silent at the bold declaration from some shady-looking creep. Every eye in the room, including mine, turned to him.
I was so stunned I just gaped like a fish before snapping back to reality and barking my first order to the crew.
"Grab that fucker."
"Yes, sir!"
"Wh-what? B-Boss, why?!"
They bound his arms and legs in seconds. The guy genuinely had no clue why I was doing this.
Even for a total scumbag, filming kids in porn? You trash! Kids are off-limits. That's an unwritten rule everywhere!
"Here's your first order."
"Yes! Lay it on us!"
Killing intent leaked from me, and they snapped to attention, answering in perfect unison.
Just looking at me probably made their hairs stand on end and their legs shake. Their spines must've been crawling.
"Torture that bastard all you want, but make sure every bit of his porn gets destroyed and all the kids are brought here. If any got sold, find out who bought them and report back to me. You have one day. Fail, and I'll rip you apart like your old boss."
"Got it! Come on, you piece of shit—spill it!"
"Let's start by pulling his nails!"
"H-Hey! It's me, Riden! Me! How can you do this to me?!"
"Who're you? Why act like we know you? Didn't you hear the boss? Tell us where the kids are before we get mean!"
"Aaaagh! Aaaaah! I'll talk! I'll talk, just stop!"
"..."
I silently watched my men torture the pedo scum. Guys like him need their balls crushed flat.
There were busty babes everywhere—why get off on kids who hadn't even grown up yet? No sense at all.
This was an 19+ game world; hot people were literally everywhere, no cap. Kim Tae-hee running a tteokbokki joint, Suzy selling clothes—this place was paradise.
Yet they filmed porn with kids?
Everyone involved—filmmakers and buyers—deserves a beatdown. They're not a necessary evil; they're straight-up pests. Pure, unadulterated vermin.
"Th-the kids are locked in a warehouse in zone 65..."
'Zone 65 warehouse.'
The pedo cracked in under a minute, spilling everything after just one finger bent. No grit, no spine.
"Boss! The kids are... Huh? Where'd he go?"
One thug turned to report, but I was already gone.
*****
"Yuna! You really not coming out?"
"..."
"Jeez, why won't she just do her thing?"
"She might be tired. Let her sleep. Yuna's a grown adult—how long you gonna baby her?"
"..."
Her mom's worried voice from outside the door, her dad reining her in.
Even with her loving family's voices, Aqua Girl—no, Yuna Reyes—stayed in bed. She pulled the blanket over her head completely.
'This is a nightmare.'
It had been a nonstop horror show.
Mission failure, senior hero's death, defeat... and rape.
All the shit she never wanted to experience, crammed into hours.
Waking up in that hotel room, covered in cum? She wanted to die right then.
But what terrified her more now wasn't even that.
'My identity's exposed!'
Scorpion King—the man she thought raped her—had seen her face.
When you become a hero, the Association offers two paths.
Hide your face and operate in secret, or go public.
Most pick secret for family safety, but plenty go public too.
Secret agents get protection but modest pay. Sure, better than average, but it's life-risking work—they don't feel overpaid.
Public heroes risk family but rake in fame and fortune. Heroes never get old as content; stations and sponsors line up. Ads, donations—wealth piles up.
Yuna chose secret. Family over money.
Now even that was jeopardized. Scorpion King, sly enough to hide his powers, knew her face.
'Leave town?'
Go where?
Dark City had the Hero Association, so housing was pricey compared to outskirts. Fresh hero Yuna hadn't saved much.
'No. That's riskier.'
Moving outside? Worse. Monsters too tough even for heroes popped up out there regularly.
'Report to the Association first...'
Identity blown meant discipline. Maybe license revoked.
'Aah...'
The thought brought tears.
When she first became a hero, joy like she'd fly away. Childhood dream come true.
Now shattered before a year.
Squelch-!
"Ahng...!"
A lewd moan slipped from Yuna. Blanket muffled it.
Normally, she'd head to HQ now, report the incident even if hiding the rape. That'd solve some issues plaguing her.
Squelch-! Squelch-! Squelch-!
"Hng~! N-No..."
But she couldn't go. Her body burned too hot.
Showering after the hotel hell, dressing, even a breeze—every touch sparked arousal.
Masturbating helped zero. It just poured fuel on the fire.
"Ah, aaah..."
Suddenly, her mind flashed to the massive cock piercing her virginity.
Imagining it parting her walls, slamming her womb—
"Ugh..."
Squirt-! Spluuurt-!
"Uuuungh~!"
Her juices sprayed. Her body convulsed under the blanket.
"No... this isn't it..."
Orgasm hit, but no satisfaction. Only that virginity-stealing cock would do.
"Cock, cock, cock... I need that cock... hng~!"
Virgin Yuna turned slut after one go.
*****
'This is zone 65.'
The pedo said kids were in a zone 65 warehouse, so I bolted here.
Finding it was easy. Bal Jeong-nam's memories guided me.
'What the hell did I do?'
Problem: zone 65 was the harbor, warehouses everywhere. Which one? I charged in blind on "zone 65 warehouse."
'Damn, don't even have those creeps' numbers.'
Still with the pedo, sure, but no contacts. Even if I did, can't use my phone—tracking risk. Left it home.
'Shit. Head back... Wait?'
As I pondered retreating, an idea hit.
'Will this work? System, search for the warehouse in zone 65 holding the kids.'
Rumble-!
"Huh?"
Activating the tutorial system's location ping sent unknown waves rippling from me across zone 65.
'Hurry up! You're so slow—when's this gonna end!'
'Waaah~ I hate studying! Wanna play!'
'Got 30k in protection money today...'
Voices from zone 65 residents flooded my ears. Overwhelming chaos made my stomach churn, but Mental Resistance settled it quick.
'Hahaha~!'
'Catch me if you can!'
The system filtered. Adult voices faded; kids' remained.
'Sniff... I miss Mommy...'
'Wanna go home...'
'Scary...'
Suddenly, only sobbing kids' voices.
"...It actually worked?"
A massive arrow hovered before me. I couldn't hide my shock.
Tried the tutorial system on a whim—never dreamed it'd pull this off. Location search too?
"..."
If real, I could save the kids. Followed the arrow into a dark alley, reaching a rundown warehouse.
Crunch-!
Broke the rusty lock and entered. Flipped the wall switch; lights flickered on.
Logistics spot—crates stacked high. No kid signs.
Wrong place?
No. Guidance ongoing.
"...The floor."
Arrow pointed down. Shoved crates aside; hidden door underneath.
Lifted it; "[Route guidance complete.]" Arrow vanished. Descended stairs to caged kids, like zoo animals.
"..."
"..."
Dead eyes, hopeless. No pleas despite stranger.
"Eek!"
"Sob..."
"Shh. No crying. That uncle'll hit us."
Only cleaner-clothed kids flinched, near tears. Dirtier ones hushed them.
"..."
I stared silently, then gripped the bars. To the wide-eyed kids:
"Step back. Don't get hurt."
Scamper-!
They retreated fast. I ripped the cage free easily.
"...Come out."
"..."
Cage gone, but they stayed put. Gestured them out; huddled together still.
"Gotta get to your parents. I'll take you home."
Soft as possible. Worked? Oldest-looking girl spoke up.
