Chapter 77: Our Guild
After ending the broadcast, we went straight into a strategy meeting.
"Do-hee? I'll support and cheer for you no matter what you do. But this... are you sure you can handle it?"
We had converted an empty room on the first floor of our building into a makeshift guild house.
Across a large, round table from me sat the landlady. Around her were a mix of familiar and new faces.
"F-First, why don't we all introduce ourselves?"
"Ah, right. I was so shocked by everything that I completely forgot..."
"Ahem... My apologies for that..."
Everyone looked flustered. They were already busy with the guild's establishment, and now this massive bombshell had dropped. Still, I didn't sense any hostility, which meant the landlady had chosen her people well.
Once the atmosphere calmed, we went around the table, introducing ourselves one by one.
First were two men in black suits who looked like elite professionals. They were in charge of accounting and legal affairs, respectively.
"There wasn't anything in today's broadcast that could be considered illegal, was there?"
"No. You handled it very cleanly. The waiting room is considered part of the Tower's space, so anything that happens there is treated as a mutually consensual act. There won't be any problems."
Whew, having a legal expert on hand was certainly reassuring.
I did think that having an accountant and a lawyer for a staff of just eight people was a bit much, but they were apparently from a fund the landlady had established.
They weren't full-time staff but would come in for outside work when needed, so I was told not to worry. That put my mind at ease.
Next, two ordinary women who lived in our building had joined as general office staff.
"Hello! I'm Lee Ji-hye from unit 304."
One was a woman with a cheerful vibe.
"Ah, hellooo... I'm Lee Yu-ra from unit 401..."
The other, who seemed a bit gloomy, introduced herself.
One was in charge of various administrative tasks, while the other would handle creating and managing our website.
Then, two men who would act as my broadcast managers joined as security guards and managers.
Including the landlady and me, that made a total of eight people.
It was a very small number for a guild, but ours wasn't the type to have much to do anyway, aside from interviewing new recruits.
Seeing everyone gathered like this filled me with a sense of pride.
'Right, this is the start of my guild...'
Looking at my guild, now officially launched, I felt a surge of emotion.
The first item on our agenda was the guild recruitment notice.
"Hoo... For now, let's summarize what I said today and post a recruitment notice."
After a long discussion with the guild members, we drafted a detailed recruitment announcement.
There were no major changes. We just added a clause stating that if a non-Awakened viewer joined our guild, we would pay for their Awakener training academy fees.
A good Awakener academy could cost tens of millions of won for just a three-month course. This was my small way of showing consideration, telling people not to die on the 1st floor by cheaping out on a bad academy, but to get proper training instead.
We posted the notice on the cafe and opened the guild recruitment board. Now, anyone who filled out the form here would be contacted with the time and location for an interview.
"To prevent personal information from being leaked, let's make this board private."
"Yes, that's a good idea."
We set the board to private, giving only the administrators viewing permissions.
"Phew... That should wrap things up for now. I'll be counting on you for the interviews."
The interviews would be conducted by the staff here and a lie-detection specialist we hired externally. As long as they passed the lie detector, they were pretty much guaranteed to be accepted, so there was no need for me to be there.
'It's better for me to climb another floor of the Tower in the meantime.'
By the time we finished discussing various other matters and the guild's future direction, the day was over.

The next day at 2 PM.
Lee Do-hee's broadcast went live again.
[Lee Do-hee has started a stream: Let's see how many applied, shall we?]
- Do-ha
- Do-ha
- Her tits are bouncing again today
- Ehehe…
- Just you wait, you bitch!
- I'm coming for you, Lee Do-hee
"Hello, everyone! Did you all apply to the guild?"
- Ehehe…
- Yep
- I did!
- I applied because I want to slap Lee Do-hee's ass
- I applied because I want to pound her deep
- Fuck, when is this week gonna be over
- A week is too long
- Ugh… I can't take it!
"Judging by the response, it seems like a lot of you applied. Shall we see just how many?"
- lolol
- Oh, you're actually gonna check?
- Don't be shocked when you see it
- Her face is gonna be priceless
- Well, she's gonna see it eventually
- Isn't this Pandora's box
- lolololol
'Did fewer people apply than I thought?'
I was estimating around 500 to 1000 people.
Even that was a high estimate; I thought it could be as low as 200 to 300.
It made sense. I knew from my own experience as a solo player.
I knew just how free solo players without a guild were.
Especially for solo players who had left a crappy guild, I knew all too well from the many times I'd given them advice in the past.
Most ordinary guilds set their goal as climbing the Tower as high as possible, no matter what.
So, when a promising newcomer with a good trait joined, they would sacrifice the contributions of existing members to boost the newcomer's reward grade and push them up.
This was often done by force. In unlucky cases, members were even forced to sacrifice themselves inside the Tower.
So, guild members who had quit such guilds would know just how stressful and annoying it was to join one.
'I wonder how many applied...'
Slightly disappointed by the viewers' reactions, I entered the cafe.
Click!
Preparing myself for the expected result, I opened the guild recruitment board.
"Hmm...? What's this?"
I squinted, wondering if I was seeing things correctly. I went back and then slowly, deliberately clicked on the 'Guild Recruitment Board' again.
"Eh...?"
There were 50 posts visible on a single page.
And the page numbers for those posts went all the way up to 40.
"Eeeh...??? What the."
- lololololol
- How many days does she have to get fucked for?
- It's fucking hilarious that Lee Do-hee expected the number to be low
- Did over 2,000 people apply?
- Wow~ How much is she planning to raise her Lewd Power stat? lolololol
- Isn't she gonna have to get fucked nonstop for a whole month?
- Do-hee, you're so fucked lololol
- Surely she's not going to try and compromise again at this point, right?
My brain couldn't process it... fast enough.
I hadn't expected this at all. Why on earth did so many people apply? If it's 2,000 people... just how many days will I have to get fucked before I'm free?
'No way.'
"Ah, hahaha... You guys are just joking, right? I knew it. You people~ You're masters at teasing others~ Hehehe... Hurry up and delete your prank posts. This all costs administrative fees. You shouldn't do that~ Got it?"
- lololololol
- Ah, she caught us
- Aigoo~ I guess I should delete it~
- lolol
- Should I try deleting it?
- Look at her denying reality
- Do-hee… snap out of it…
The viewers' prank was too much.
I thought they would naturally delete their joke posts after I said something, but...
The page number increased to 42.
"Mueh...? W-Why?"
I refreshed the page again, and it became 43.
"Th-This can't be...?"
Vrrrrrr!!
Just then, my phone rang.
The caller was the landlady.
"H-Hello?"
[Do-hee...? I think we need to rethink our plan...?]
*
About 30 minutes later, Lee Do-hee returned after a brief meeting.
- lolololol
- What happened?
- Are those applicant numbers for real?
- Isn't that like every solo Awakened in the country applying?
The Awakened population in our country was about 50,000.
That might seem small, but that number excluded those who had already died or gone missing in the Tower. The number of people who had died in the Tower so far was close to 500,000.
And if you excluded those who had given up on climbing the Tower for over a year—the so-called dormant Awakened or Tower-quitters—the number of active climbers was only about 10,000.
'And 2,000 of them flocked to my guild?'
This wasn't a number that could come from just the active Awakened.
Lee Do-hee's pussy had awakened the dormant Awakened.
"The result of the meeting is... that the elixir provision will be done sequentially. I am deeply moved by all of your support and participation, and I have decided to accept everyone without avoidance..."
- Why does it look like she's gritting her teeth? lolol
- Word on the street is Do-hee's pussy is delicious
- Isn't it because of the stats? +16 to all stats is great
- Men are just beasts, plain and simple
- What about the non-Awakened?
"Grrrk... Anyway, I, Lee Do-hee, will provide every guild member with a puss... no, an elixir, even if it takes time. Once the existing Awakened have received their elixirs, the newly joined Awakened will also receive them slowly..."
Things had gotten way too big.
Two thousand Awakened.
That was a staggering number, accounting for 20% of all Awakened in Korea...
We decided to hold the first elixir provision in a week, and after that, it would be held twice a month, with a two-week interval between sessions.
We also decided that the high-ranking Awakened would go first.
- Pathetic~
- You couldn't predict this? lol
- I was surprised there were so few
- fr I thought at least 10,000 would show up
- You didn't see this coming?
"Yes... that's right. How was I supposed to predict that you all were such perverts!!! You damn perverts!!!! Raaaargh!!!!!"
*
The elixir provision was in one week.
For now, I decided to live as if I'd forgotten all about it.
"First, shall we do some shopping?"
I used all my savings to buy the <Grahlin's Headband> I'd been eyeing, without a moment's hesitation.
Spending money somehow made me feel better.
- Crazy
- Did 5 billion won just evaporate for real?
In the evening, I stopped by Choi Tae-soo's Awakener training center and had a refreshing workout for the first time in a while.
For the record, I had already recruited Choi Tae-soo.
His empty training center would now be freely available for our guild members to use.
The guild's finances were more than secure, thanks to my personal funds and the landlady's investment.
On top of that, thanks to the Awakened fighting fiercely to get into the top 300, I had earned another 200 million won today alone.
There weren't any particularly dopamine-inducing broadcasts, but a lot of viewers did flock in when I was milking my breast milk.
Since we hadn't received a permit to sell the milk yet, it would be provided to guild members first.
*
And so, a week passed.
I lived each day busily, as if I had forgotten.
But eventually, that day arrived.
"......"
It didn't feel real.
'Am I really going to do it with 300 people starting now...?'
Not knowing how it would turn out, we decided to start with a smaller group of 300.
The person lending me their private waiting room was a high-ranking Awakened from the 59th floor.
I had never seen his face, but he was cooperating with our guild members to provide a safe location.
I was curious about who he was, but the guild members said he refused to reveal his identity to me. Something about being shy, or whatever...
And now, here I was.
I was inside a small partition reminiscent of a voting booth. Curtains were drawn around me, and there was even a shower hose and a drain ready.
The only peculiar thing was that my body was separated at the waist, stuck in a wall, with my upper and lower halves on opposite sides.
'This... feels strangely surreal...'
Being unable to see behind me, completely defenseless, made me feel a little anxious. If someone were to fuck me from behind like this, I wouldn't be able to resist at all and would just have to take the pounding.
I strained my ears and could hear a guild member, who had been trained as a guide, explaining the rules to the new recruits.
"Before you go in, you can have a drink of breast milk. Then, go in through the back and you can fuck either the pussy or the anus, whichever you prefer. After you're finished, you can rest for a moment in the waiting room on the other side and have another glass of milk. Once you've recovered a bit, you can go to the front and use the throat pussy."
"......"
'His words are so lewd...'
Basically, fuck the back, take a short break, then fuck the front.
Hearing it with my own ears, it was finally starting to feel real.
"Those who wish to use a condom can take one from here. For those who don't, please use the shower hose to clean up for the next person. For your information, Miss Do-hee likes getting cream-pied, so we recommend doing it raw."
'Why is he telling them things like that...'
Just hearing the guide's words was enough to make my pussy feel a little wet.
'How did I end up doing something like this...'
It was too late to turn back now.
"As for the pictures on the back wall, you can choose one you like from here, put it up, and look at it while you do it. We also have the broadcast playing in the waiting room, so you can watch that to get hard."
'Right, the stream is on too, isn't it...?'
Once you pass the 50th floor, the world lines connect, making it possible to watch broadcasts even in the waiting rooms.
"Alright, first person, you may begin."
Swish!
I heard the sound of someone entering as they pulled back the curtain.
Thump, thump...
'Is it... really happening now...?'
My body tensed up with nervousness, and a strange sense of anticipation made my ass twitch instinctively.
"Hehehe... I finally get to fuck you. This picture will be perfect."
He stuck something on the wall, right above my ass.
"Heut..."
As he attached the picture to the wall, his lower body brushed against my buttocks, and my startled ass flinched.
'W-Was that a dick just now?'
The feeling against my ass—soft on the outside but hard on the inside—was unmistakably a dick. A raw dick, at that.
'Th-This is so nerve-wracking.'
The fact that I was trapped in a wall, about to be treated like an onahole by countless men, sent a pleasantly chilling thrill through me.
Drip...
"What's this, you're already wet? Just as I thought, you're a total pervert, aren't you?"
I felt a strange man's hot, large hands grab my pelvis.
