Chapter Title: Don't Measure My Weight Without Permission!! You Smart Scale Bitch!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Park Hee-yeon ended up handing over the dungeon allocation rights.
"You've got exactly one month from now. If you go back on your word then, I won't just sit idly by..."
"Hah? Even if you beg me to do more, I won't! Give it up!!"
Three full prostrations and nine bows...!
Is this how the king felt when he knelt three times and bowed nine times before the enemy nation's ruler?!
'I'm the guild master of this guild...!'
It was no use grinding her teeth now.
It was her own fault for underestimating Kim Taeyang and betting so heavily.
Squeeze.
With intense humiliation, Park Hee-yeon stamped the agreement.
"Now that you've handed it over as promised, behave yourself. No media interviews, limit outside activities, avoid crowds, and especially stay off SNS for a while..."
"Woo-hyoh~ Dungeon allocation rights get! Gotta post on SNS right now!!!"
"Hey!! Listen to me!!!"
"Hah? Don't you yell, you powerless sow bitch!!"
Park Hee-yeon wasn't the most even-tempered person.
Neither was Kim Taeyang.
"I'll make sure he stays off SNS."
"It's all done, so let's not get too heated~"
It took the good-natured Seol Ha-jeong and Cloé to step in before the two calmed down.
Finally, Kim Taeyang left the office.
Park Hee-yeon slumped like a wet seaweed.
"I'm gonna die... energy sucked right out of me..."
She stared blankly into space when her smartphone buzzed.
It was a message from one of her subordinates.
We've secured the schedules for Taeyang Church and its key members. Park Hee-yeon planned to take down Kim Taeyang.
It wouldn't be hard.
'Just find some nitpick, claim a contract violation, and terminate it.'
Kim Taeyang was a thug.
He definitely had some shady intentions.
There had to be malice behind demanding the dungeon allocation rights.
'He's the type who'll blow up on his own if left alone. I'm just speeding up the timeline to protect the stock price.'
Plant a spy in Kim Taeyang's camp.
Then provoke some chaos.
If he falls for it and causes a scene?
'Sue him immediately.'
Kill him with a pen.
Proceed. This time, it was time to show Kim Taeyang the fear of adults.
*
Thud!
Piles of documents stacking up on the desk.
Was this the weight of power...?
Even as I looked utterly fed up, Seol Harin explained without batting an eye.
"These are schedules for volunteer activities and other external events. Review them all before the coordination meeting."
"Hey... Can't you management sow bitches handle this yourselves...?"
"You're the final approver. You're not planning to just blindly stamp whatever your subordinates push through, are you? Even if we're a company that promises the future, we still need to separate personal and professional matters clearly."
"Hey! I haven't promised anything yet!! Don't get cocky!!!"
"Anyway, review them. If you're the master of the sows, this much should be a breeze."
"......"
What the hell was a 'sow master' anyway...?
Like becoming president or something...?
As Seol Harin left, Lena came in next.
"Info on the new followers in Taeyang Church, plus the rookies and low-rank heroes from Justice."
"Hey... This is way too much."
"I've already condensed it to the key info in the first pass. Cutting more would mean oversimplifying, which you said no to... Instead, I've marked all the persons of interest."
"Oh. Nice."
Definitely meticulous work.
Seol Harin could handle more volume, but her style was a bit rougher.
Lena was slower but excelled at essentials and summaries.
Probably thanks to years as Seol Ha-jeong's secretary.
"Hey. Thanks."
"Glad I could help! Even an inferior female can manage paperwork...!"
"Hey hey. Don't emphasize how inferior you are? Build some self-esteem."
"I read in [Why Males Must Dominate] that females release happiness hormones when loved by a strong male. I think mine are flowing now too...♡"
"......"
Lena's ideology was extremely radical.
I believed men and women were equal.
But... if she wanted to live immersed in male superiority, no need to stop her.
"Taeyang. Your hair looks great today."
"Hey. Quit the bootlicking and get out. I'm busy."
"Okay...! I'll come running when you call...!"
Lena left the office.
Normally, that would've been it, but today there was one more.
"Kim Taeyang."
"Hah? Mini sow bitch?"
It was Cloé.
Her cheeks were puffed out.
She looked sulky, like something was bothering her.
What happened...?
"You seem busy lately?"
"Can't you tell?"
"We never get time together."
"If you have something to say, you can say it anytime?"
Cloé ground her teeth and yelled.
"I can't get my PT...!"
Oh, right. It's been a while since I did personal training for her.
Seol Harin was a gym freak who could handle weights on her own, so no big complaints.
Lena never showed much interest in working out.
She just followed along because I did.
Cloé was different, though.
She was the incarnation of masochism, turning workout pain into pleasure.
Solo workouts couldn't give her that 'abused' feeling, so she depended on me.
"Human chair. Assume position."
"Position...♡"
I used Cloé as my office chair instead.
She quickly got down on all fours and offered her back.
"Taeyang. You feel a bit lighter than before...?"
"Hah? Don't measure my weight without permission!! You smart scale bitch!!"
"Sorry...!"
Everything else was fine, but...
Cloé's human chair was actually kinda uncomfortable.
No backrest, and her spine was too rigid.
"Hey. Head back to the sows now."
"Wha...? But it's not even been 10 minutes!"
"Hey hey! I'll torment you properly when I have more time, so go!!"
"You said that yesterday, the day before, a month ago! I can't leave like this! Fulfill your duties as sow master!!"
Couldn't she just go...?
I'm exhausted trying to work here...
"Tch. Fine, do 1,000 push-ups then go. No knees."
"......"
I had Cloé start her workout and got back to the paperwork.
Soon, Cloé stood up.
I thought she'd quit from exhaustion, but surprisingly, her face was fresh as ever.
"I can feel it all. You thought I wouldn't notice, but no. It's definitely different."
"Hah? Different how?"
"When you're bored and abusing me, when you're teasing, when you're mad, when you're really enjoying it...! They're all different! I can tell exactly what mood you're in when you abuse me!!!"
"......"
It's a gift...
"Hey hey. I'll put some sincerity into it, so calm down."
"Forget it. Sorry for bothering you when you're busy."
Cloé slunk out, shoulders drooped.
Cloé... she wouldn't be too upset, right?
After this job's done, I'll give her a week of hell training to really break her in.
Might as well call the vice head and wreck them together.
Beep beep beep-
Lost in paperwork, my set alarm went off.
Time for the scheduled guild volunteer activity.
"Hey, sows! Prep the limo!!"
"Got it."
"Piss sow! You're in charge of rounding up all the other sows!"
"You got it!"
This volunteer event had a ton of guild rookies and low-rank heroes attending.
That's where I'd recruit followers.
With a seriously dirty trick...!
*
An alert went up at Justice Guild.
With stocks plummeting from the Kim Taeyang effect, they launched a massive image overhaul.
They threw high-rank heroes into avoidance dungeons and mobilized low-rank ones en masse for volunteer work.
'Protecting citizens and serving society is a hero's duty!'
It was a very Justice-like move based on that philosophy.
The problem was the heroes' dissatisfaction was off the charts.
"Volunteering a hero's duty? Heroes fight monsters."
"I signed for the Justice name, didn't expect to be total benchwarmers."
"When do we get dungeon assignments?!"
Low-rank heroes were especially pissed.
Overzealous image polishing meant no dungeon career building.
Plus, recent aggressive expansion left them oversupplied.
And now they were stuck walking and bathing strays.
"Damn it. You think I became a hero to wash dogs?!"
Grumbling piled up.
The event vibe was sour.
Until he showed up.
"Woo-hyoh~ Super cute poop dog spotted-☆ Hey hey! You'll never get the fleas off like that?! Hand it over! No good deeds for scum like you!!!"
"?"
Kim Taeyang snatched all the strays his colleagues were handling.
Dozens... hundreds trailed behind him.
"Who's that guy?"
"What're you gonna do with all those dogs...?"
"He planning animal abuse or something?!"
"Why would he?!"
"No idea!! But look at him, it's obvious!!!!"
"Face screams animal abuser!!!!!"
A face made for tormenting small animals!
Heroes' sense of justice ignited, and they followed Kim Taeyang.
And witnessed it.
Dogs lined up, 'washing themselves' in a spectacle.
"Wh-what the...?"
Dogs splashed into tubs.
Then hopped out, squeezed dog shampoo like pros, rubbed themselves down.
After Taeyang and the sows' touch-up, back in the tub.
Then towel frenzy, drying in giant fans...!
A miracle scene.
"How the hell?!"
Behind it: the legend of Dog Nanny Academy (self-proclaimed).
Pomi in her red hat.
"All—atten...tion!!"
"Woof!"
"Turn around and dry tails and butts thoroughly! Execute!!"
"Woof!"
Pomi could communicate with dogs.
Her Dog Nanny Academy background was a huge plus.
"Grrr...!"
For thug dogs rebelling...
"Woof...!"
"Yelp-!"
One fierce bark, and they tucked tail.
Overwhelming charisma taming even guard dogs with a glare...!
That was Pomi of Dog Nanny Academy...!
"What do we do now?"
"Uh... watch?"
Heroes got to chill.
"Hey! Walk time!"
"All eyes front! Follow master in formation! No freelancing or else!!"
"Woof!"
"All walk! Go!"
"Woof woof!"
Kim Taeyang headed out walking the dogs.
Another spectacle.
"Left! Left!"
Hundreds in perfect rows and steps...!
'Cool...!'
'So charismatic!'
'Gotta film this!'
No one ordered it, but everyone joined the walk.
And more.
"You've been watching in this heat—free ice cream for everyone~"
Seol Ha-jeong and the sows passed out ice cream.
With promo flyers.

>Join Now$$ All Get Dungeon Slots ☜☜ 100% Rewards Guaranteed※ "Taeyang Church?"
"What cult is this?"
"Heard there's a new in-house religious club. This it?"
Heroes didn't care much.
Just pocket the goods, ignore the rest.
"Church has money, huh."
"Says dungeon slots on join?"
"You believe cult talk?"
"Guess not...?"
Meanwhile.
One hero plotted something shady.
'They're all gone.'
At the stray food spot.
As he poured bagged powder...
"What's this?"
"Eek!"
Pomi appeared without a sound.
"Wh-who are you?"
"I'm Pomi! Who're you...?"
"I-I'm a Justice hero...?"
"Aha~ Then you're master's friend!"
"Friend...?"
Pomi snatched the bag and sniffed.
"Sniff sniff... What smell. Like junk food, so tempting..."
Seductive aroma.
Had to be.
Rat poison.
'Poison the strays with rat poison, mass murder!'
'Then frame Kim Taeyang!'
Park Hee-yeon's orders.
"Can I have one?"
"Wha...? N-no!"
Too late—Pomi swallowed a pellet.
"Tasty!"
"?"
"This a snack?"
Spilled milk.
Confess, and a 9-star Constellation might beat him dead.
"Yes! It's a snack!"
"Then I'll share! Dogs listen to me!"
"Pardon?"
"You're a good guy! Bringing extra snacks for the woofies! Bye now!"
"......"
He lost the rat poison.
Pomi followed the walking dogs, munching pellets one by one.
Nom nom...
'So good! Cheesy!'
Perfect for Pomi's taste.
Rich, spicy, never gets old.
Addictive with every bite.
Nom nom nom...
'Kinda like dried meat too! Why doesn't master eat this?'
Too tasty—wanted to share with Taeyang!
Even junk-food avoider Taeyang couldn't resist.
Nom nom nom nom nom...
'Party in my mouth every bite!'
Pomi felt great.
Snack too good—tail spun like a prop.
"Master! Got snacks for the woofies!"
"Hah? Snacks?"
Finally caught up...
"Huh?"
Bag empty.
"Hey. What's this? Bag's empty?"
Pomi peered in, sniffed deep—no trace of the pile.
'What...?'
Realization flashed.
"Someone stole themmm!!!!"
All in her belly double-time, but she underestimated her gut.
"Hey. I'll buy snacks later, lead on."
"But they were so good, wanted to share with friends... whine."
Pomi trudged, tail down.
Then.
Stabbing stomach pain.
"Agh! M-master...! My tummy suddenly...?!"
"Hey hey! What'd you eat this time?!!"
"Didn'knowww..."
100 rat pellets.
Each lethal to a big dog.
100 could kill elephants.
But.
Gurgle-
"Ah, all better."
"?"
Pomi's digestion was mighty.
Rat poison? Pfft.
"You really okay?"
"Huh? What?"
"Tummy hurt?"
"Oh yeah. Still hurts, need tasty stuff. Bad food needs good to balance."
"Don't lie! I see your tail wagging!"
"Not lying? Really? Tummy might hurt~ Gotta eat beef quick or disaster~"
Thus, Pomi unknowingly became the hero who saved the animals.
