Chapter Title: Taeyang Hates Dealing with Seol Harin. I'll Emphasize That I'm a Living Onahole Who Never Annoys Him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Pomi's massive hand came flying in.
Poseidon tried raising a huge wave to form a wall,
but...
SPLAT-!
"Gweh...?!"
There was no way it could block Pomi's colossal slap.
"Heavens! Unleash your wrath!!"
ZZZAP!!
Lightning struck at Zeus's shout.
"Ow, hot!!!"
But to Pomi, it felt like nothing more than static electricity.
With her cheeks puffed out, she blew a gust of breath.
"Aaaahhh!"
"It's the Second Titanomachy—!! Tartarus has collapsed!!!"
"Save ussss!!!"
Before Pomi, the Olympian constellations were less than ants.
Hades, clinging to me to avoid getting blown away by the gale, flapped around as he asked,
"My lord... what in the world is that dog? Is it really a Titan clan's dog constellation?"
"Huh? She's just a normal dog constellation."
Even if getting huge was Pomi's unique ability, it felt way too out of left field.
Pomi was an ice-attribute sled dog constellation, not some Titan clan nonsense.
She didn't even belong to this star system to begin with.
I thought it over carefully.
Pomi must've swallowed that seed...
The Seed of Growth was originally an artifact that created massive plant-type chimeras.
With Pomi's iron stomach that digests anything, maybe it fully processed the magical effects of the artifact?
Or went beyond digestion, absorbed the nutrients, and caused this transformation.
"Don't bully my owner, be a good girl!!!!!!"
"Alright, just calm down!!"
"I won't eat you! I won't because you're mean!"
"The world is vast, and full of monsters..."
The Olympian constellations couldn't last even five minutes before waving the white flag.
All but one.
Ares, who seemed to have anger management issues.
"What the hell are you, you rage-inducing monster?! Die!! Die already!!!!"
Poke! Poke!!
The guy stabbing Pomi's massive toe with his spear.
Of course, the damage was zero.
WHOOSH... THWACK-!!!!
Pomi's response was a flick to the forehead.
Ares shot up into the sky without so much as a scream and vanished.
"Sorry!!! I hit too hard!!!!!"
Pomi had been trying to hold back, in her own way.
Anyway, with that, the gangbang fiasco was over.
Hades waved at Pomi's face high in the sky.
"Big puppy! Since you're already huge, how about demolishing Charon's unauthorized building? Just the three-story one!"
"Got it!!!!!"
CRASH-!
"Nooooooo! My company...!"
She effortlessly tore down Charon's massive building.
"Owner!!! But do I have to stay this huge forever?!! I'm worried!!!!"
Who knows.
She'll probably shrink back to normal after some time.
Plus, Pomi didn't swallow just one seed.
There were three types of seeds.
Proliferation, Growth, and Shrinkage.
I had the Proliferation one, so Pomi must've eaten Growth and Shrinkage in sequence.
So she'll go back to normal soon enough.
"Huh? Don't worry, even at that size, you're still a cute puppy!"
"Owner...!!!!"
"Hey hey! Don't act cute at that size!! We'll all die!!!"
"Haha!!! Sorry!!!!!"
"Hey, Hades. Let's get going. We gotta start the business."
"Riding this duck boat is exhausting... Can't we rest a bit...?"
"Come on! Your money's on the line, so hustle!!"
"Business is such a tiring endeavor..."
I dragged Hades onto the duck boat.
Anyway, the bet was on.
A showdown for business monopoly rights and ten million bonds.
My victory would lead straight to Charon's bankruptcy,
and Charon would belong to me.
And the endgame?
Seol Ha-jeong's naked dogeza.
Tomoe, who had boarded the duck boat with us, asked,
"Does Gendaru-kun have a talent for business too?"
"There's nothing this body can't do."
"Such confidence...!"
"But it's a hassle, so I'll leave it to my minions."
"Minions?"
I had a friend who's great at business.
Plus, running a business alone is too much work.
"Hey, Hades. You can summon living humans to the underworld with your authority, right?"
"Yes. It's extremely bothersome and draining, but..."
Seol Harin, Cloé, Kuma, Lena, Rebel Nam, and so on...
I planned to mobilize all the sow pigs and ranch staff.
On the surface, it's a fight between Charon and Hades,
but really, it's the student council president versus the sow pig ranch!
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ I gathered the workers and explained the situation.
No one except Seol Harin had been to the star system before.
They were all surprised, but seemed to be adapting for their own reasons.
In Cloé's case, the social butterfly was enjoying the whole setup,
and Kuma and Lena were fired up since it was about fixing twisted Seol Ha-jeong.
The rest were a bit flustered, but since they'd been transported as a group, no one panicked.
Surprisingly, the biggest issue was Seol Harin.
"I get the situation, but why do Lena-sunbae and I have to work together?"
"Obviously because we're the smartest ones here. You're nothing like the president..."
I put Seol Harin and Lena in charge of overall business operations.
For the reason Lena stated.
Unlike Lena, Seol Harin clearly hated the pairing.
"Stop comparing me to my sister. I'm not as nice as she is."
"Yeah. I can tell just by looking at your face."
These two had zero chemistry, as expected.
A bad matchup.
But there was a reason I paired them anyway.
⚙ NTR SOLUTION ⚙ ◆ Charon's Business [Operator: Charon] [Operating Profit Margin: 237%] ◆ Solution + Create a rival company and steal Charon's business! + Entrust business management to Seol Harin, who took management classes, and Lena Erandel, who has long supported Seol Ha-jeong. That will be the most efficient! God Tae-chang said so, so we should follow, right?
More importantly, Charon.
An operating profit margin of 237%? Is that even possible?
How ruthlessly is he photocopying money?
"Hey, sow pigs! Stop fighting and write the business plan! If you don't do it right, I'll set you free from sow pig duty! Got it?!"
"Pairing me with this woman means I can't guarantee the quality."
"I had no complaints from the start. It's what Taeyang wants, so of course I'll do it."
Zzap...!
Their gazes clashed, sparks flying.
Well, since I followed the status window, it should work out.
"Mini sow pig. You handle counseling, playing to your strengths."
"Counseling?"
"Listen to the dead folks' stories and design services for them."
After using NTR Solution on our customers—the souls—their emotions boiled down to two things.
Fear of hell.
Regrets about the living world.
Especially "hell," which conjured images of forced labor or torture, had them shaking.
From what I knew, hell was pretty livable.
If an in-crowd type like Cloé explained hell step by step, customer satisfaction would skyrocket.
Just listening to their lingering regrets would build rapport too.
Hecate's authority could help with some of that.
"No big deal. I'm good with people."
Cloé was reliable in this area.
This girl who usually chased masochistic situations finally seemed dependable...
"Hey, Kim Taeyang! I'll handle counseling with Cloé too!"
"Huh?"
Kuma was gung-ho.
She seemed thrilled at the idea of everyone working together energetically.
But counseling?
Why you?
"It's weird saying it myself, but I've gotten prettier, right...? I'll lure customers with my beauty!"
"Hey!!! Shut your trap, you loiterer sow pig!!!!"
"......"
She had a job that suited her perfectly.
"You're manual labor!"
"Ma, manual...?"
"Isn't it obvious you'd use that burly body to build boats and structures?!! Hey!!"
"But my face is too pretty for that?!"
"Not that pretty!!!!"
"Urk..."
Like it or not, it was decided.
She could handle the work of ten people alone.
"Hey, Pomi! You're huge now, so be a living billboard! Advertise our business to the souls!!"
"Got it!!!!!"
Her massive face poked through the hole in the city wall.
Thud...! Thud...! Thud...!!
The city shook like it would collapse with every step.
"Hup!! Everyone, move!!!"
And so the chaotic Death Tour operation began.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ Once work started, Seol Harin and Lena were the busiest.
No proper business plan had been made yet.
They had to draft one quickly with limited info.
"I organized the service items. Core services are three: counseling, motorboat rental, cruise. Couple matching, curse casting, job intros, etc., as add-ons."
"We'll table add-ons. I got data for core services. Hell price records report. Charon's duck boat rentals are ridiculously overpriced now."
"......"
Seol Harin silently took the report.
Her eyebrow twitched slightly—surprised at Lena's quick prep.
'Not for nothing did she work under my sister so long?'
Kim Taeyang's childhood friend, Lena Erandel.
She hated the woman fiercely, but that didn't make her skills fake.
Seol Harin skimmed the report and twirled her pen.
"Counseling 1 bond, motorboat 10 bonds, cruise 30 bonds seems right."
"Isn't that too expensive?"
"That's list price. Opening discount 10%, up to 50% for groups to secure customers."
At that, Lena's eyebrow twitched too.
'With discounts, it's close to what I thought... Pretty strategic.'
Pricing appropriately wasn't hard for Lena either.
But she hadn't expected such an aggressive customer acquisition plan so fast.
"Honestly, didn't think of discounts. If we're going bold, free service for first 100?"
"...Not bad."
Just like that, they worked in sync.
During a breather, Lena casually asked,
"You really like Taeyang?"
"I don't."
"Then why keep glaring at me?"
"Because I love him."
"Love...?"
"Dead serious."
Tension thickened between them again.
"Surprisingly, Cloé doesn't seem that into Taeyang."
"She's a hedonist."
"So it's between you and me."
"A fight?"
"Only one can marry him."
Lena was as serious as Seol Harin.
She'd resolved on the uninhabited island.
To live as Kim Taeyang's wife.
Plus, reuniting as adults after being childhood friends felt fated.
Becoming his bride seemed destined.
"Owner has no interest in you."
"Same for you."
Seol Harin smirked at Lena's question.
"I'm the only sow pig who's fucked the owner?"
"......!"
Seol Harin's shoulders squared.
Victor's posture, brimming with pride.
'She really did it...?'
Even on the island, Taeyang hadn't touched Lena.
Best they'd done was a kiss while her mind was foggy.
But Lena had a dagger too.
"Have you drunk Taeyang's piss?"
"P-piss?"
"You haven't, huh?"
She recalled their coupling.
Seol Harin had tried drinking his piss, but Taeyang got mad and kicked her out.
"Hmph... Childhood prank."
"No. Recent."
"......"
Grip.
Her fist clenched tight.
Conversation over.
But thoughts didn't stop.
'I'll drink his piss too. If I beg him to cum in my mouth, he'll do it right now. I'm a special sow pig.'
'Taeyang hates dealing with Seol Harin. Hammer that point. Emphasize I'm a living onahole who never annoys him.'
Both women were dead serious about the love business too.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ Charon's duck boat rental shop in Sunsin Pavilion, hit by terrorism.
Thankfully, the core items—duck boats—were intact.
"Damn... What a waste of money, trashing everything..."
Charon gnashed his teeth.
Rumor had it they were introducing motorboats, but duck boats couldn't compete.
Persephone comforted him.
"Charon, don't worry too much. What does that human know about business? You're the entrepreneur who built this rental shop from scratch."
"True..."
It was built on monopoly and shady ethics, but he'd run it successfully so far.
"Still, we need countermeasures. I told you, Kim Taeyang's no ordinary human."
"What'll you do?"
"Bring in someone extraordinary too."
Charon pulled out a coin.
Not a regular bone coin, but one with Seol Ha-jeong engraved.
"Miss. You there?"
Soon, Seol Ha-jeong on the coin moved and replied.
"Constellation-nim? What's up?"
"Trouble in hell. Kim Taeyang showed up. With a ton of his friends."
"Kim Taeyang...?"
"He's starting a business here. I need to counter, can you come now?"
"Hand over management?"
"Yeah. Whoever makes more profit gets the monopoly."
Seol Ha-jeong pondered briefly.
A smile curved her lips.
"We won the game."
"Won?"
"I know someone. Hates Kim Taeyang's guts, but the world's best at management."
Seol Ha-jeong sounded confident.
Charon caught on and grinned.
"Jeong Yun-ah. I'll bring my mother, CEO of a top corporation."
The Samjeon Group CEO.
No matter how clever Kim Taeyang was, he couldn't beat her.
Unless Jeong Yun-ah was a frustrated sow pig addicted to Taeyang-lookalike love dolls, that is.
