Chapter Title: I'm the Original Sow, While You're the 'Mini' One, Senior
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Ark's underground prison.
The imprisoned thugs were chattering away about the outside news they'd heard from the guards.
"They say the Guidance Committee President lost her Constellation?"
"Is that for real? Was it that Kim Taeyang guy again?"
"Has to be! Man, the Guidance Committee might actually fall apart for real!"
"Kekeke. A thug conquering Ark! Guess we'll be getting out too!"
The excited inmates were cackling when a soft yet chilling voice silenced them.
"Quiet."
"...!"
Fwaaah-!
"Urk...!"
A holy light spread from the center.
It was so blinding that the criminals, accustomed to the dark, scattered like cockroaches.
"Kim Taeyang, huh... Perfect. Thanks to him, 'we' can finally get out into the world."
"...."
The inmates all fell silent.
The reason was simple.
She was the most notorious criminal who'd spent the longest time in this underground prison.
The woman who subdued them all with a single word was named Michaela.
She unfolded the note she'd received from the guard.
[Hey. I've taken over the Guidance Committee, so I'll let you guys out soon.] [by Kim Taeyang.] It had a cool vibe, but somehow felt utterly idiotic.
Still, it was true that Kim Taeyang had taken control of Ark.
If he wanted to spring Michaela, there had to be a reason.
'If it's a negotiation, I can twist it in my favor no problem.'
Michaela was silver-tongued.
No matter how tough the thug, they'd end up as suckers after bouncing around on her tongue.
"Michaela! Visitation from Guidance Committee member Kim Taeyang!"
Finally.
Kim Taeyang had come for Michaela.
'He's huge...'
Her first impression was 'big'.
Kim Taeyang was seriously built.
"Hah? This bitch is Michaela?"
"...."
She'd heard he had a foul mouth, but starting off by slamming her with 'bitch'...
Her mentality shook a bit, but Michaela wasn't one to crumble that easily.
"Yeah. Nice to meet you... Skip the chit-chat and get to the point. You said you'd get us out. What do you want?"
"Your Constellation."
"?"
Kim Taeyang was way crazier than she'd expected.
"Bendy!"
"Bendy Bendy~"
Whirrr!!
The whip in his hand lunged forward.
In an instant, Bendy bound Michaela's body and hoisted her into the air!
"Urk...! What the hell...?!"
Thinking he was an ally because of the note had been her downfall.
If she'd kept even a shred of caution, she wouldn't have been caught this pathetically.
Every time Michaela struggled to escape, the demon-binding rope stimulated her body and tightened even more.
"Oof?!"
'It won't loosen...!'
"Kekeke. Struggling's useless? No bitch can escape Bendy's demon-binding knot!!"
With that, Kim Taeyang yelled "Hmph!" and thrust out some document.
Then, the flashlight clipped to Michaela's skirt floated into the air.
The flashlight's true nature was her Constellation.
The Guide of Light, Luminous.
Luminous turned on and examined the contract closely.
"Where'd this contract come from...?"
"Hah? You think a damn flashlight gets to ask cheeky questions?! Just sign the damn thing!!!!"
Kim Taeyang's bellow made Michaela bristle.
"How dare you talk to my Lady Constellation like-"
"BendyBendy~"
"Oooongoooook...?!!"
But Bendy's squeeze subdued her easily.
"This... It's already stamped from way back. I can't refuse... Sorry, Michaela."
"Hey. Quit bitching and just come along!"
"Mmph...?!"
Kim Taeyang grabbed the flashlight and smooshed it against the contract.
The flashlight got enveloped in light and sucked right into the contract.
'H-He kidnapped my Lady Constellation...?!'
Michaela had her Constellation stolen in a flash.
"Jackpot...!!! Got a 9-star light-attribute Constellation pre-stamped on a slave contract!!!!! I'll savor this idiot dumbass Constellation that stamps contracts willy-nilly, try out all the pussy-drenching stigmas you haven't even tasted yet, and give it back! So you just tremble and wait for your flashlight soaked in this body's hand grime, got it?!!!! Kekekeke!!"
"W-Wait! What the hell does that even mean...?"
"Hey! Visitation over!! Let's go, Bendy!!"
"BendyBendy~"
Slither-
Thud!
Bendy released Michaela.
Finally free, she crashed to the floor face-first.
"...."
The calm after the storm.
Things had been insanely chaotic, but now the surroundings were unbelievably quiet.
"What... just happened...?"
Regaining her senses, she realized her Constellation was gone.
All she could do now, trapped as she was, was exactly what he'd said: one thing.
Tremble and wait for her defiled Constellation to return...
'Kim Taeyang...! I'll never forget this humiliation...!!'
Michaela trembled.
*
Back at Kim Taeyang's house.
Click.
Seol Harin sheathed her sword.
No matter how pissed she was, she couldn't just slice up her senior...
Instead, she'd channeled a legendary soccer player, planted her foot, and unleashed a full-power instep kick.
Smack-!!!
"Kieeeeek?!!"
A massive shock through her ass!
Cloé thought she'd been whacked with a baseball bat...!!
'That bitch's ass felt so good to smack earlier! Why's she doing this to me?!'
Cloé rolled on the floor.
A chilling aura made her look up.
Only then could she grasp the situation.
"S-Seol Harin...? W-Why are you back so early...?"
"Senior Cloé. What the hell is this disgusting crap?"
"...."
Disgusting.
It was an utterly humiliating word choice, but...
'Can't deny it...!'
Dressed in cat cosplay, shaking her ass at the front door and begging to be spanked...!
And getting caught by Seol Harin instead of Kim Taeyang...!!
The pinnacle of disgust!!!!
"I-It wasn't like that... I was... yeah...! Giving Taeyang an e-event!!"
"So, what kind of event?"
"That guy... he likes when girls feel humiliated, right? Like using a vibrator in front of others...!"
Step-
Seol Harin took a step closer.
Just one step.
Rooooar...!!!!
"Urk?!!"
A crushing pressure assaulted her body.
Goosebumps from the bone-chilling cold were a bonus.
Seol Harin.
The woman called the Next Sword Saint.
A noble lady who'd win gold in an intimidation Olympics.
Her power was underrated due to Kim Taeyang's shadow, but that aura was overwhelmingly burdensome even for Guidance Committee President Cloé.
"You're under a hilarious delusion, Senior."
"D-Delusion...?"
"Taeyang doesn't enjoy girls being humiliated."
"Then...?"
Seol Harin lifted her T-shirt slightly.
A tacky navel piercing dangled into view.
"Taeyang enjoys me being humiliated."
"...!"
A chilling smile on her lips.
The smile of a victor...!
"Urk..."
Cloé bit her lip.
She deliberately embraced the pain to cool her head.
Suddenly, the junior in front of her felt utterly infuriating.
Cloé shot to her feet.
'Why am I scared of her?! She's just a first-year...!'
As expected of Ark's Guidance Committee President.
She radiated heat rivaling Seol Harin's chill and fired back.
"Oh ho. Is that so? Then explain how Taeyang toyed with my Lady Rasha-ra and loved every second?"
"Tormenting Constellations was just to piss you off. And watch your mouth. There's no more Rasha-ra. She's 'Bendy' now."
"Pfft! You just wanna believe that? From what I see, Taeyang doesn't think you're all that special. You're just another slave sow to him, same as me. Right?"
"Even if you joined late, how oblivious can you be... You really know nothing. Taeyang and I enjoy dates in a fantastical, romantic place ordinary people can't even imagine."
"Hilarious! That wasn't a date, it was a slave walk! And you. Don't you feel cocky for a first-year? Don't strut just 'cause you've been a sow a few weeks longer!!"
"I'm not strutting. The hierarchy's already set by our titles. I'm the plain sow without qualifiers. You're the 'mini' sow, Senior. Get what that means with your brain? I'm the original sow, and you're the 'copy'."
"You insolent bitch...!"
"Disgusting slut...!"
Bubble bubble bubble...!!!
Heat boiled up to their scalps.
Cloé and Seol Harin were both seething.
"You wanna go for real?"
"If you weren't gonna settle it properly, you shouldn't have opened the door."
Shing-
Seol Harin drew her sword.
Cloé reached for Rasha-ra, then remembered she was gone and pulled her backup magic pistol instead.
A fleeting thought crossed her mind.
'Why am I even doing this...??'
Do I want Kim Taeyang's affection?
Am I in love with Kim Taeyang?
Nah, probably not.
She just needed his pleasurable, addictive touch, his yells and abuse.
Cloé sorted her thoughts.
'This insolent bitch is trying to hog all the good stuff...!'
To Cloé, Kim Taeyang was 'the good feeling'.
And Seol Harin, constantly blocking and pushing her out, was 'a thorn in her side'.
"Let's make it clear. What happens to the loser?"
"They give up cleanly."
"Give up being a slave sow and go back to being a free person... That right?"
Winner stays sow,
Loser gets freed...!
It felt backwards, but that's how they decided!!
"One more. Loser stays away from Taeyang forever."
"Music to my ears!!"
Just as the showdown was about to start.
A rough bellow crashed in.
"Hey!!!!!!"
A thunderbolt voice slamming their eardrums...!
"What the fuck you bitches doing waving swords and guns in my house?!!!! The only knife a sow gets in my house is a kitchen knife!!! The only trigger a sow pulls is on a detergent sprayer!!!!"
At Kim Taeyang's roar, Seol Harin quickly sheathed her sword.
Cloé grumbled in disappointment and holstered her gun.
"Where the hell have you been?"
"None of your business. More importantly, mini sow. What's with that ridiculous outfit? I call you a sow and you turn into actual livestock? And a meaningless cat getup at that? How fucking stupid are you? Huh?!"
"Th-This is...!"
"You forgetting you're still Guidance Committee President?! Maintain some dignity! You used to flip out over dress code violations, and now you're calling that normal student attire?!!"
Seol Harin whispered to Kim Taeyang with a sly smile.
"Told you. She has no value as a slave."
"Hah? Sow!!! Don't strut 'cause you're the senior sow—guide the junior sow right!!!! What makes you think you can try killing each other?!!!!"
"B-But..."
"You're the only sow I can trust with senior duties...!!!"
"!"
-You're the only sow I can trust with senior duties.
Softening it a bit, it could be interpreted as:
-You're the only one I trust with something this important... There's no one but you, Harin... I need you, Harin... Please, just this once...
This guy just had a rough mouth.
Deep down, he was a profound man.
"...Hmph. Fine, no choice then. Guess I'll help."
Seol Harin forced down her twitching lips as she replied.
A bit of twisted interpretation, sure.
But anyway.
She felt a lot better.
*
The day of the outdoor training had arrived.
I headed to the training site with Seol Harin, Pomi, and Bendy.
"Coming to the sea puts me in such a great mood?!!"
The destination was a dock with boats.
Finally hitting a spot that matches this shitty beach full set...!
I'm no longer a fashion terrorist!!
Best-dressed for the beach now!!!
"Doesn't make it feel like a vacation."
"Hah? Says the one wearing a milk cow bikini instead of underwear?"
"Th-That was...! You kept nagging me, you perv...!"
Seol Harin was right.
I'd insisted she wear the milk cow bikini under her clothes.
Not 'cause I'm a perv or anything...
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ [Wearing a swimsuit at the beach.] [Feels refreshingly good...!] [Agility +1] [Companion's Agility +1]
A minor stat bonus event.
+1 might seem trivial now.
But it snowballs, deciding clears in the end.
Plus, all dungeons have a chance to melt clothes.
A service scene setup?
Traps and monsters wield erotic liquids that dissolve clothes.
But magic artifacts stay safe.
That's why the milk cow bikini for Seol Harin.
Just in case she ends up naked and falls.
"Kekeke. Hey, careful not to rip your clothes in battle? Don't want your wimpy childhood friend spotting the slutty bikini I bought you."
"...No way he'll see, so shut up."
Blushing Seol Harin.
Showing her bikini to Kang Ju-hyuk would rain NTR coins.
But thinking of him seeing Seol Harin's bikini pisses me off a bit.
No...
Why does it piss me off?
She's not even my girl?
Anyway.
Our target wasn't the beach.
The assigned dungeon floated bobbing on the sea.
"There it is. The ghost ship."
Ghost Ship Dungeon.
A legendary sword sleeps in a treasure chest inside.
But it's broken.
Kang Ju-hyuk's Constellation, Planchel, completes it into an ego sword with cheat-level performance.
It was originally Planchel's weapon.
She'd drool earthquakes in her eyes seeing it.
Wonder what face she'll make seeing the holy sword in my hands...!
