Chapter 225: Shopping King Lee Do-hee
Whoooosh~
A cool breeze blew past, sweeping over my body.
As the heat of battle cooled and the combat dopamine faded, I finally realized I was completely naked.
"What the, this is crazy... Wait! Kyaaaah!! You perverts! Where are you looking!!"
"Crazy bitch..."
"What, you mean you didn't show us on purpose?"
"What can you do if I stare a hole through your pussy!"
"Her tits really are bigger than her face..."
"Seeing her in person, she really is like porcelain."
"Yep~ Do-hee's pussy is a plump, tight virgin pussy~!"
"Staring so fucking hard. Staring a hole through that pussy."
"Hngh... Y-You perverts!"
'H-How... How can they say things like that in real life...!'
My face flushed. I cupped my hands together to cover my pussy.
They were all my guild members, and some of their voices even sounded familiar.
First, I needed to get dressed.
"W-Well, I'll be going now."
Ji-hye would handle the guild merger just fine.
There was only one thing I had to do: climb the Tower.
Today, too, I struggled my way home through the potential rapists.
"Haaa... Everyone, I've realized your true nature today. You guys really are potential criminals!!"
- Gasp
- No! That wasn't us!!
- What
- You liked it too!
- Ah, we've been caught
- It'd be weird not to have strange thoughts when you're fighting naked with your tits bouncing around.
- That wasn't us.
- We're shut-in NEETs, we can't go outside, you bitch.
- They must be trolls from the giant guilds!
"Hoo... Just stick to sexually harassing me online."
To be honest, I wasn't planning on making a big deal out of it. But if I just let it slide, wouldn't that make me a bitch who actually enjoys being sexually harassed in real life?
So, did I actually enjoy it...?
That's a secret.
"Perverts... Now, let's hurry up and plan my climb."
I could go straight to the 41st Floor, but there was no need to rush.
From the 41st Floor onward, the maximum party size is sixteen. By simple calculation, I'd have to do the work of sixteen people all by myself, and the difficulty would skyrocket.
'The chance of dying is low, but the chance of failure is much higher.'
Also, if an S-rank Ordeal branched into a hidden or true ending route, I might need overwhelming power.
But more than that...
"Money! I want to spend money!!!"
- Money?
- This bitch is loaded.
- Do-hee's become rich...
- How much are you worth?
The daily Onahole VIP Auction was bringing in over 100 billion won a day.
I could have made a fortune selling my breast milk, too, but I didn't put it on the market.
'I'm not selling that anymore.'
200ml of my breast milk would probably go for over 10 billion won, but who would buy it? The rich giant guilds would sweep it all up, and wouldn't that just put me at a disadvantage later when I have to fight them?
But there would surely be people who genuinely needed the money.
The solution to this was simple.
They could just sell it to our guild now.
To be precise, our guild could act as a middleman, allowing them to make money by reselling to the guilds that helped us during the Seoul Terror Incident and other friendly guilds. Since the Onahole VIPs were also part of our guild, we had plenty of buyers.
But the problem couldn't be solved just by telling them, "Go ahead." What if a giant guild secretly offered them more money to sell? Could I stop individual transactions?
Surprisingly... I could. Or, if I couldn't stop them, I could at least prevent them from happening again.
What made this possible was the Pope's 'command'.
The Building Owner Auntie, who became the Pope, could proclaim edicts for the Lewdness Cult, and if you didn't follow them, your Faith stat would be docked.
If someone illegally sold breast milk according to the Lewdness Cult's standards, their Faith would decrease by a certain amount. I could then find the system log of this decrease and 'excommunicate' that Awakener.
An excommunicated Awakener would be expelled from the guild, and all the stats they'd raised using the Onahole and breast milk would disappear. On top of that, their [One Called by God] trait would also vanish.
It was similar to a provisional contract, but it was a method that didn't violate the new laws against unfair provisional contracts. Since it guaranteed the right to sell elsewhere, it wasn't considered an infringement on an Awakener's human rights.
For reference, it cost me 3,000 of my Lewd Power to grant the Pope and the Apostles the authority to view the Faith usage system logs of regular believers and the authority to excommunicate them.
Anyway, so how much is Lee Do-hee worth?
"Three trillion. I'm so fucking rich. Heheh!"
- What
- Holy shit
- Trillion?
- You mean trillion, not billion?
- She's seriously rich, holy shit
- And that's with her holding back from earning more.
And there was another reason I didn't really care too much about money.
Most of the money was invested in equipment and elixirs, but there was hardly any ridiculously expensive equipment on the Awakener Market.
You'd see items in the tens of billions, and occasionally in the hundreds of billions, but that was it. I never saw any equipment with a value higher than that!
This was only natural. When you die in the Tower, the equipment you're wearing mostly evaporates. And when people get good items, they sell or lend them to their own guild members first.
Even when something good did pop up for sale, an employee from a giant guild who periodically monitored the market would snatch it up. Because of this, the Awakener Market was mostly filled with mediocre equipment, and the ultra-high-performance gear used by high-ranking Awakeners was hard to come by.
"Still, I'll buy the most expensive stuff."
But there was bound to be something useful.
And if I replaced all my old equipment, it would make a significant difference.
'First, let's look at my own gear.'
The places to focus on were the slots where I could equip up to three additional pieces thanks to my Illusionary Garment trait.
First, I'd change my armor.
The <Asanagi's Armor> I got on the 11th Floor.
It looked great, but its performance was severely lacking for my current level.
Likewise, the <Pink Hero Suit> and <Pangolin-Scale Armor> could be upgraded to something much better.
"Isn't there any fucking badass, cool-as-hell plate armor?"
- Just wear some bikini armor, you bitch.
- You always just wear a white t-shirt and jeans or dolphin shorts anyway lol
- For real, this bitch fights in casual clothes on purpose so she can get her clothes ripped off lol
- Bikini armor would suit Do-hee perfectly.
- Do-hee, we all know you wear that stuff because you want to get stripped.
"Ahem... It's not on purpose! It's just the most comfortable to move in. Who do you take me for, a pervert?!"
'Damn, how are these bastards so quick on the uptake...'
I ignored them and went to my fan cafe.
If I responded to their sexual harassment, it would never end.
I focused on my equipment again.
Expensive doesn't always mean good. I had to filter out equipment with stats that were inefficient for me to raise, like Divine Power, or gear with weird skills.
The market didn't have an AI-like auto-recommendation feature. I had to sort by price, but who has the time to read through hundreds of equipment descriptions one by one?
"At times like this, this is the place to go."
[Lee Do-hee Growth Research Board]
When I got there, sure enough, there were posts recommending equipment.
"See, being quick-witted is a good thing."
And so, I replaced my armor pieces.
<Yukira's Wind-woven Robes>
The robes worn by Yukira Hazumoto, a shrine maiden who served the God of Wind.

◇ <Power Jump>, <Power Landing>
---
"Whoa... Look at those stats go up."
I'd spent 320 billion won just on this, but I still had plenty of money left.
I replaced all my headgear as well.
My existing equipment was <Grahlin's Headband>, <Emperor Mikhail's Helmet>, and <Orichalcum Frigate Helmet>.
They all had decent performance, but they weren't top-tier.
'This headband... I bought it with the 4 billion won I got from the Elixir Provision roulette.'
Some items held memories, but it was time to let them go.
"I'll spend it all without holding back."
<White Tower Lord's Hat>
◇ All Stats +100
◇ <Install Warp Gate>: Installs a warp gate connecting two spaces.
<Ulutu's Battle Helmet>

"Cooool~~ Is this the power of paying to win? Why on earth didn't rich people climb the Tower! This Phoenix Headband is seriously amazing, isn't it?"
I was lucky enough to buy an item that had just been listed.
I'd spent 1.18 trillion won up to this point. The Phoenix Headband was 600 billion, but for what it does, it was well worth the money.
- Because they'd die in the tutorial with a 90% chance before they even had time to put on their gear...
- I'm so jealous.
- Is Do-hee on a happy Tower climbing journey now?
- This bitch's weak point is her pussy anyway, so stuff like that is meaningless.
- For real, what's the point of high stats? I'm confident I could beat Do-hee.
- Ah, attacking the pussy is cheating.
"Ahem~ Do you think I'd be foolish enough to just stand there and take a hit like that?"
In reality, a few people had tried to pussy-kick me when I came out of the Tower, but after I dodged and responded with a ball-kick, they quieted down.
- You wanna be a eunuch?
- The moment you try that in real life, you can't complain if you get countered.
- Rumor has it that there are people with only one testicle in Do-hee's guild.
"Alright, now all that's left are the shoes and gloves."
For gloves, I had only been wearing the <Destroyed Asura's Gauntlets>.
'This one's too good to throw away.'
It was an item with the Asura's Power Release skill.
A skill that instantly raised all stats by 300. But the moment I used it, I'd become a berserker unable to distinguish friend from foe, which is why I hadn't used it yet.
"I'll just buy two pieces for the glove slots."
<Golden Gloves>
◇ Strength +200
◇ Agility +100
◇ Armor Defense +300
◇ <Reflect>: Reflects a projectile attack. Consumes the same amount of Divine Power as the enemy who fired the projectile. Only single projectiles can be reflected. 1-minute cooldown.
<Knight King Saion's Gauntlets>
◇ Strength, Agility, Defense +50
◇ Armor Defense +500
------
"Wow... They're all great. I especially like how sturdy they are."
Armor Defense is a stat that indicates how tough the armor itself is, but for me, thanks to my [Illusionary Garment] trait, it all gets converted directly into my Defense stat.
'Should I have enhanced this to SSS-rank? Looking at it now, it's totally broken.'
That brought the total to 1.82 trillion won. I still had money to spare.
- Crazy
- This is a money-splurging stream, but the scale is insane.
- Wow... go buy some Nvidia stock with that money.
- The numbers are weird...
"I'm not done yet. I'm buying two pairs of shoes, too."
The shoes that create footholds were still too good of an item to replace.
<Otherworldly Glass Slippers>
Creates a clone in another dimension.
The clone absorbs 70% of all damage taken. When the clone dies, you can use <Full-Charge Mirror Wave>, which releases all the absorbed damage.
◇ Armor Defense +10
◇ Lewd Power +100
<Conqueror King Dragonia's Boots>
◇ Armor Defense +700
------
"Wow, legendary, legendary. Wait, this was actually for sale? Isn't this basically like having two lives?"
A clone in another dimension, an option that was effectively 70% damage reduction, and a broken skill that returned all the damage the clone took when it died!!
- What the, that's actually broken?
- What is that, how much was it?
- 180 billion... It's expensive, but isn't that a good deal for a second life?
In the end, I spent over 2 trillion won on all my equipment. But I would have bought this even if it were more expensive.
"I know, right? It's expensive, but shouldn't something this good have sold out ages ago?"
Did I just get lucky and snag a bargain? Or maybe my brain has just gone haywire and my sense of money is all messed up.
Actually, the latter was half-right.
It was a genuinely good item for Lee Do-hee. But...
- Look at the Armor Defense.
- Ah.
- Snap
- What the lol
- Warrior classes have to pass on this one.
- 10? That's useless.
"Ah... These really are made of glass."
I see why no one bought them.
Armor Defense is durability.
With a value of 10, these would seriously break if I just jumped a few times while wearing them.
Besides... they were actual glass slippers, so any other Awakener would have to fight in high heels.
Doesn't it apply as long as it's in an equipment slot? No, you have to be wearing it properly for it to take effect.
A long-range mage or healer might be able to use them, but they mostly rely on magic like shields to survive. If their shield broke, they'd die in one hit even if the damage to their body was reduced to 30%.
Instead of wearing glass slippers, it would be better to have a skill like Flash or Blink. That's why hats or robes that mages might use often have no Armor Defense at all.
'The high price played a part, too.'
This item was equipment that only I could utilize to its full 100% potential.
- Wow... so basically no one but Do-hee can use it.
- A man could never use it, that's for sure lol
- Technically, only someone with the Illusionary Garment trait could use it, and so far, she's the only one.
- A man lol in high heels lol
- Shit, but it's so broken, for real.
- Is it even possible to beat this bitch Do-hee?
"I'm not a boss monster, why are you trying to beat me..."
- For real, how do you beat her?
- It's so broken.
Just then, a long donation message from someone appeared.
[Dohees_Foot_Sole has donated 100,000 won]
If you somehow manage to land an attack, you first have to get through her level 50 Absolute Barrier. If you get through that, you then have to pierce through over 10,000 Defense. For reference, she has an additional 2,000 resistance to elemental damage and 22,000 to electric damage. Even if you do inflict damage, her clone takes 70% of it, so you have to deal almost 2-3 times the damage. You also have to watch out for counters in between. For reference, she also has self-heal and self-buff shield skills. She reflects projectiles, so you have to attack in close combat. And she can revive up to 3 times with Full Recovery, so after killing her by going through that process three more times, she has one more life and revives again.
"Ahem. A wall-of-text donation is grounds for a ban, you know..."
- LMAO
- That's actually ridiculous.
- Wall-of-text, you crazy bastard lol
- Dumbfounded
- That long-ass message.
- How do you beat Do-hee?
- It really is long.
- And that's only if Do-hee stands still like a training dummy.
- That long-ass message.
- So basically you have to get through four things: shield, damage reduction, full recovery, and resurrection.
- I can't even get past stage 1?
- Is this even possible?
- Even in a game, if you made a boss like this, you'd get flamed, Do-hee.
[DoheeTunaSoDelicious has donated 50,000 won]
...all of which can be pierced in one go by a pussy kick!
"...Excuse me?"
- Ah lol
- A single pussy kick would put her in a groggy state, for real.
- So there was a strategy guide.
- You have to destroy the weak point first lol
- Nah, it's a disable.
- Just creampie her during the disable time and the raid is complete.
- What do you mean creampie, just stick your dick in and she won't be able to move.
- Crazy bastards lol
- Do-hee, close your eyes.
- That's the official strategy, alright.
"Sigh, look at what you're thinking... That's you guys for you. Thank you for the item recommendations. I'll be giving 200ml of breast milk to the person who recommended items today."
- What
- For real? whoa
- He hit the lottery.
My necklace and rings seemed fine to keep wearing, so I skipped them. In the equipment slot that opened up after reaching the 40th Floor, I unlocked underwear and equipped the panties I received as a gift from the high elf Arsilla.
'This should be enough preparation.'
*
Three days later.
Do-hee arrived in the Tower's waiting room.
She had equipped all her new gear and finished her preparations for climbing the Tower.
She wasn't quite on the level of the highest-floor Awakeners, but she was armed with the best equipment money could buy.
'I didn't forget anything, right? I refilled the fuel for my emergency escape, and my inventory is full.'
I had also taken the pigs back to the mine. Not many people were calling for them, and they'd been caught stealing my spirit herbs.
I left the rest of the work to Ji-hye. Now, I finally had the freedom to climb the Tower with peace of mind.
"Here I go. I'll check my status window one last time. Status window!"
[Ding~]
<Final Stats>
Strength: 1826 → 3286.5

------
Even after getting an EX-rank trait, my stats had increased tremendously once again.
This was because of the new equipment and because my own stats had risen by the amount of my Sacred Beasts' base stats.
"I'm not afraid of anything anymore. Let's go!!!"
[The recommended number of people for the 41st Floor is 16. Will you challenge it alone?]
"Yes!!"
Shwoong!!
*
41st Floor.
Shwoong!
The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was a woman with purple hair and red eyes, her large breasts half-exposed. The woman, who appeared to be middle-aged, was sitting primly in a reception room, wearing a dress like that of a medieval noble.
And next to her was a slightly smaller, thin man who appeared to be her son, dressed in a uniform embroidered with fine gold thread.
My gaze was so fixed on the Maman that I couldn't see him properly, but I confirmed he was a man and looked away.
"Are you... the guard sent from the kingdom?"
The middle-aged woman's worried and suspicious voice reached my ears.
