Chapter Title: Princess Kwon's Warning
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Men don't clench their fists, you know.
That was Princess Kwon Mina's advice.
The moment you step outside Busan, you're screwed.
No, the instant you stray from my side, you'll get your mind broken and sold off.
...I just couldn't bring myself to ignore that warning.
If it were just small-time E-rank or D-rank hunters, that'd be one thing.
But with a $100 million bounty on my head, even A-rank hunters and above would naturally be circling for a shot.
"Um, but the territory itself is really safe, right?"
"Of course it is! We're just underrated because of the Supreme Lee Clan, but our Andong Kwon Clan is a proper hunter family with a proud 800-year history!"
Come to think of it, just as Princess Kwon Mina said, the Andong Kwon Clan was one of the major hunter families overshadowed by the Supreme Lee Clan.
"Search the whole world—it goes without saying! Out of over 100 countries on Earth right now, there aren't even 100 hunter families with 500 years of history, let alone 800!"
"Yeah, that's true."
"But! Why is our Andong Kwon Clan always treated like leftovers?!"
All the major events in Korea since its founding.
The 1988 Seoul Olympics.
The 2002 FIFA World Cup.
And even the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics held more recently.
"They always send people from the Supreme Lee Clan as torchbearers or official representatives! And we're stuck in the back every time!"
"Ah..."
Thinking back, yeah, that sounded right.
I was too young or not even born for the first two, so I didn't see them myself.
But I still vividly remember watching Lee Gok carry the torch during the PyeongChang Olympics on TV with Seolgi.
"That's my big sis! Isn't she super cool?"
Seolgi had been so proud of her sister back then.
Digging deeper into my memory, I think Princess Lee Miran was standing right next to her, giving the Olympic congratulatory speech after the torch.
But the sole heir of the Andong Kwon Clan standing here now?
I hadn't seen Princess Kwon Mina anywhere during it.
"Uh... did you skip the Olympics by any chance?"
"I was there! Right next to the Supreme Lee Clan folks! But those damn broadcasters only showed those bitches and skipped Busan entirely!"
I was there!
...she protested, her face turning pitifully aggrieved as if it were the greatest injustice.
"I flew from Busan to PyeongChang on a plane... and I got zero screen time..."
"Ah......"
"Japan next door... their oldest hunter clan is only 600 years old... If I'd been born there, we'd be top dogs... But nooo, I had to be born in Korea...!"
"......"
Was this the plight of the eternal second place they'd always talked about?
On the way to the clan territory, Princess Kwon Mina, now leaning on my arm, couldn't hold back her frustration.
"Hwehheeng...!"
"Th-there, there... good girl."
"It's too much! Why do they only like Busan people...!"
I had to keep patting her back as she burst into tears reminiscing about the past.
And as a bonus, feel the plush sensation of her ample breasts in the process.
'...Looks like five rounds a day is locked in again today.'
Dragging along the busty elf princess in her hanbok like that, I somehow managed to keep my sanity until we reached the vicinity of her territory.
Snap.
"Hm?"
"Huh?"
The national rule for Korean hunter clans.
In front of the hanok territory reminiscent of a Joseon-era palace, we came to a halt at the sight of some 'sluts' blocking our path.
"What... are those?"
"Kunoichi, ya know."
The vulgarity was off the charts.
To put it in my terms, it was an outfit you wouldn't see in Korea—lewd as hell.
Sheer mesh fabric exposing the insides of her skin, with a fundoshi barely covering the crotch.
That getup sparked an inexplicable 'horniness' and a simultaneous urge to violate.
No, more than that, to wear something like that, she'd have to... keep the hair above her privates meticulously groomed.
"Kunoichi... that's classy fashion overflowing with elegance, ya know."
"Classy? ...That?"
"Men might not get it, but that outfit symbolizes the 'resolve' of Japanese women."
Uh... yeah, you'd need resolve of a different sort just to put it on.
Anyway, why were these resolved women blocking our path in a group?
We're allies with Japan now, after forming the Korea-Japan alliance.
Surely our 'friends' weren't here to do anything bad?
"Princess Kwon Mina. If you leave that man beside you and go, we'll back off."
"...And just what do you plan to do if I leave him?"
"We'll have about 100 of our clan's daughters impregnated by him, then send him back to Korea."
Friend, my ass.
Friendships often flicker out like candle flames in the wind when women are involved.
History's full of guys who fought over one woman and got their whole country wiped out.
'No, this is a reverse world, so it's probably chaos over one guy?'
These kunoichi demanding I impregnate exactly 100 and they'd let me go.
...You crazy bitches, I'd die of exhaustion first.
Even with my near-100% conception rate, that's at least 100 creampies—any male hunter would wither and die from that much lust drain in a short time.
"Don't look so scared, Korean man."
"Eh... me?"
"Yeah. Our kunoichi clan has a technique called 'Secret Art: Prostate Poke' that forces a man's dick to get hard whether he likes it or not. With that, you could be back on Korean soil in about two years."
Wow, zero worries? Bullshit.
That means the moment they grab me, it's not just my front cock—they're targeting my back hole too.
That absolutely cannot happen.
Tastes differ, but I'm definitely not into that!
"Hoo, guess I have no choice but to fight."
I currently had 340 points.
First, allocate 80 points excluding Magic Power to the other stats still in the 3s.
That left me with 260 points.
From 5+, it took 50 points per level-up, so maybe push one to the 10s like Magic Power while I'm at it?
About 20 kunoichi opponents.
Their auras suggested they weren't small fry.
So better crank Agility to 10s and use Neural Enhancement Module for speed they couldn't even react to...
"Stop right there."
...I'd planned to take them down.
"Yongchan, what were you about to do?"
"Huh? Uh... fight them?"
"Fight? ...You think those are words that should come out of a delicate man's mouth?!"
One minute she's clinging to me bawling her eyes out.
Now her pointed ears twitched up and down as she furrowed her brow like she was pissed at me.
"More importantly, fighting with me right here! Do I look like some 'useless woman' who can't protect even one man?!"
"N-no, not at all! I just... I'm a male hunter who can fight in the first place..."
"Even if a man fights, all he can do is tug hair. With such frail strength, you'd just become kunoichi prey, ya know."
She naturally stepped in front of me, volunteering as my shield.
"And! There's almost no chance, but what if your manhood gets hurt in the fight? Your seed belongs to me alone. I'm a woman ready to fight in your place—for you and our future children."
...She's already thinking about kids?
Anyway, hope our elf hanbok princess holds up okay.
Sure, the Andong Kwon Clan were Korea's representative hunter runners-up.
Underrated in Korea because of the Supreme Lee Clan.
Worldwide, visitors flocked to see them yearly, making Busan the second-biggest tourist spot after Seoul.
But even so, the current Andong Kwon Clan heir.
Princess Kwon Mina was still in her ambiguous early 30s—not quite in her hunter prime.
In other words, not yet at an age where she could boast like Lee Gok.
'If she starts losing even a little, I need to jump in right away.'
She'd get super sulky if I ignored her goodwill and joined in too soon.
So join when she starts getting pushed back while protecting me.
With that in mind, I nodded and fell back for now.
"Throw!"
The moment she stepped forward, the kunoichi scattered in all directions, hurling ninja knives at Princess Kwon Mina.
Secret Art - Ninja Knife Shadow Clone Technique!
Number of projectiles multiplied dozens of times.
As they formed hand seals like true ninjas, the mere twenty or so ninja knives multiplied dozens of times in an instant, blotting out our entire field of vision.
"Th-this is magic? I read books saying Japan's assassin hunters were a bit unique, but this too?!"
No, that's not ninja—that's straight-up mage.
I'd planned to watch a bit, but forget Lee Miran or Lee Gok levels.
This stage was still too early for Princess Kwon Mina.
So I'd join in too...
"Domain Summon."
But right then.
Domain Summon
A 10-meter radius around Princess Kwon Mina becomes a separate domain.
A white circle about 10 meters in radius formed around Princess Kwon Mina, transforming into an entirely different space.
"Hah!"
She unleashed kicks in all directions, and the ninja knives touching the circle's edge all clattered powerlessly to the ground.
"Wh-what?!"
The kunoichi were as stunned as I was.
Meanwhile, gazing at them and me...
"Guess I need to reintroduce myself. I am the next heir of the Andong Kwon Clan."
Princess Kwon Mina reaffirmed her status.
"Crown Princess Kwon Mina, heir to one of the world's top ten domain hunter clans."
