Chapter 144: Reality (20)
I naturally joined the drinking party Oh Gyeong-hun had dragged me to. At first, everyone was taken aback that he had brought me, but at his insistence, they reluctantly dropped their usual sharp-edged attitude.
"Alright, alright, everyone get along with Woo-jin from now on. And apologize for bullying him back in school."
Woo Ji-myeong offered me a drink with a weak smile.
"Hey, Woo-jin. Sorry about everything."
"It's fine."
Kim Hyun-jun also nodded awkwardly. But I could still see the disdain for me in their eyes.
Oh Gyeong-hun seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere. A faint smile played on his lips.
He stood up from his seat and clapped his hands to get everyone's attention.
"Hey everyone, I've invited some special people today to liven things up."
The moment he finished speaking, the door opened, and several men and women entered.
They were all well-dressed. The men were all handsome with clean-cut looks, and the women wore flashy makeup and clothes that accentuated their figures.
As they entered, some of the guys whistled in excitement, while the girls frowned and began to whisper amongst themselves.
"Hey, are you still playing around like this?"
Im Hwa-yeon crossed her arms, looking incredulous as she glared at Oh Gyeong-hun.
Despite her cold stare, Oh Gyeong-hun just shrugged and smiled nonchalantly.
"What's the big deal? We're all here to have fun. We've got drinks, good music, and good people. What's not to like about this vibe?"
Kang So-ra ground her teeth and sneered.
"You still think this kind of thing is fun?"
Choi Yu-na sighed and stood up from her seat.
"Ugh, of course. I shouldn't have come."
Oh Gyeong-hun casually raised his glass with a smile.
"If you don't want to, you don't have to. If others want to, they can. The choice is yours. So don't get all bent out of shape about it."
Oh Gyeong-hun finished his sentence and took a sip of wine.
Im Hwa-yeon and the other girls, annoyed, decided to go hang out in a room by themselves upstairs. Most of the guys couldn't take their eyes off the new women.
Drinks were passed around, and loud music filled the villa.
The men laughed and chatted with the women at their sides.
Oh Gyeong-hun came over to me.
"Woo-jin, if you see a girl you like over there, call her over."
I deliberately put on a clueless expression and responded to him.
"I-Is that okay?"
He grinned and slapped my back.
"Why wouldn't it be? I set this all up for you to have a good time. Enjoy yourself."
I pretended to hesitate, looking around the room.
Every single one of them was a woman who had nothing to do with combat.
They were women Oh Gyeong-hun had prepared for some purpose, but I decided to play along for now.
Hmm... this one's got big tits, and that one looks like she's had some work done on her face.
That one over there has a big ass. Fucking her doggy style would feel amazing.
Contrary to my inner thoughts, I gave a slightly awkward smile and raised my hand, pointing to two women.
Oh Gyeong-hun clapped his hands and burst out laughing.
"Woo-jin, you're a real man! Going for two at once, are we?"
Light laughter rippled through the group, and the atmosphere grew even more festive.
I deliberately scratched my head awkwardly and gave a sheepish smile.
"I-Is two not allowed...?"
Oh Gyeong-hun patted my shoulder, looking satisfied.
"Of course it is. Just think of tonight as your last and have fun."
The two women I had pointed to came and linked their arms with mine, one on each side.
One was a voluptuous woman with seductive eyes, and the other was the one with the big ass.
They pressed their bodies against mine with subtle smiles.
"Oppa~ You're so cute."
"Oh my, you don't look it, but you have a great body."
I could feel their seductive gazes and soft touches.
"Th-Thank you."
They smiled with their eyes and pressed even closer.
"Is this your first time with a woman?"
One of the women caressed my thigh and leaned her body against me slightly.
"Yes..."
"How cute."
The other woman said, stroking my chest.
Oh Gyeong-hun watched us and let out a small smirk.
As the mood ripened, the music grew louder.
I squeezed their breasts and asses while downing the drinks they poured for me one after another.
He drugged the drink.
I purged the intoxication and the drug's effects from my body. All the while, their soft breasts were pressed against me.
The women skillfully snuggled up close, rubbing their bodies against mine.
Their breath, a mix of alcohol and perfume, tickled my ear.
I pretended to be moderately drunk, smiling as I let my hands wander.
I grabbed a handful of a full breast and gave it a little twist with my fingers. The woman next to me let out a loud laugh and buried her face in my shoulder.
"Oppa~ Your hands are so rough."
"Ngh, you can't touch my nipple like that."
Their hands gently stroked my thighs. I spent some time like that, drinking with a woman on each arm, waiting for the right moment.
I swayed and deliberately slammed my head onto the table.
-Thud!
In an instant, the boisterous atmosphere fell silent.
"Shit... this bastard can really hold his liquor."
Woo Ji-myeong stood up.
Following his lead, the other men around him also got to their feet.
"Wow, I heard this fucker awakened. It gave me chills watching him fight off the sleeping pills in his drink."
"Oh, right. Gyeong-hun, you said you used the improved drug on the girls this time, right? Can you give us some of that?"
"If you need it, I'll give you as much as you want."
Oh Gyeong-hun smiled slyly and tilted his glass. Then he raised a hand to the men and women.
"You all can go now."
"Yes, Young Master."
After they had all left, Oh Gyeong-hun's gaze fell upon the table as he gave a vile smile.
"Gyeong-hun, you think the drug worked on the girls upstairs?"
"I had it seep into the room as a transparent gas. They should be in heat by now."
"Hehe, I've been dying to fuck Choi Yu-na."
"I want Kang So-ra. I never liked how that bitch always acted so tough. I'm gonna wreck her cunt tonight."
A few other guys approached, looking uneasy.
"Gyeong-hun, but... is this really okay?"
"Yeah. The other girls are one thing, but isn't it dangerous to mess with Choi Yu-na and Im Hwa-yeon?"
"Don't worry. The new drugs I got will take care of everything. And we can just pin it all on Kim Woo-jin."
"Fuck, the more I think about it, the more perfect this plan is."
"Right? This bastard's an awakened too, so we can just fabricate a few things and frame him. It'll be over."
Oh Gyeong-hun slowly rose from his seat, put down his glass, and looked at me.
"Kim Woo-jin, why did you have to reach for something so far out of your league?"
He whispered lowly with a vile smile.
"And I wasted money because of you. If I'd known you'd be this easy to catch, I wouldn't have hired an A-Rank criminal."
"Gyeong-hun, you hired an A-Rank criminal?"
"Yeah. This bastard got an A-Rank on his evaluation."
At Oh Gyeong-hun's words, the men's faces instantly turned pale.
"...He's not going to suddenly wake up, is he?"
"Stop being such cowards. I have guards posted all around, so it's fine. And we drugged him, remember?"
Oh Gyeong-hun scoffed and tilted his glass.
But the men around him still couldn't hide their anxious expressions.
"They said this sleeping drug was for combat-capable users, but still, an A-Rank... isn't that dangerous?"
"It's fine. My dad said it was made to work even on S-Ranks."
Oh Gyeong-hun continued in a relaxed tone.
"And no matter how much of an A-Rank this bastard is, if he went down to us, he can't be that special, right?"
One of the guys put his glass down on the table with a nasty grin.
"So, can we start having our fun now?"
"Not yet. We have to deal with this bastard first. Wait a bit, the guy I hired will be here."
But after 10, then 20 minutes passed and the hired man didn't show, Oh Gyeong-hun's brow furrowed.
Frowning, Oh Gyeong-hun put his smartphone to his ear.
"Hey, where are you?"
But there was no response from the other end.
"What the? Where the hell is this guy and what is he doing?"
Annoyed, Oh Gyeong-hun tried calling again. It was the same.
"Dammit, why isn't he answering his phone?!"
At that moment, Woo Ji-myeong, who was standing next to him, asked with a hint of anxiety.
"You don't think... something happened, do you?"
"Nah, no way. Do you know who that guy is?"
Oh Gyeong-hun said, but his expression was hardening.
"Even so, there's no way an A-Rank would be this late, right?"
"......"
The room was suddenly plunged into a chilling silence.
And then.
-Ding.
Oh Gyeong-hun's smartphone chimed.
"This bastard, finally getting in touch."
He hurriedly checked the message.
But, in that instant.
Oh Gyeong-hun's hand trembled slightly.
"...What is this?"
On the screen was a single line of text.
[I'm refusing this job.]
"Refusing...? What, is this bastard kidding me?"
Oh Gyeong-hun tried calling again.
But—
Beep... Beep...
The line rang, then promptly disconnected.
"...Is this bastard trying to fuck with me?"
Oh Gyeong-hun's face twisted in anger.
"Gyeong-hun, what's wrong?"
"The guy I hired refused the job."
At Oh Gyeong-hun's words, the men's faces went white.
"Gyeong-hun, then what are we going to do about this guy?"
"Tsk, what do you mean? We'll have to take care of him ourselves."
"W-We... have to do it ourselves...?"
"We don't have a choice."
Oh Gyeong-hun moved closer to me.
"Ugh, I can't watch."
"Me neither..."
The men turned their heads away. The moment Oh Gyeong-hun's hand was about to touch my body—
I firmly grabbed his wrist and slowly sat up.
"......!"
Their eyes went wide.
"Wh-What?!"
Oh Gyeong-hun instinctively stumbled backward.
"What the...?"
I slowly twisted his wrist.
-Crack—
"Kuaargh! Fuck...!"
The moment his wrist was twisted, Oh Gyeong-hun's body contorted.
"Does it hurt?"
I looked down at him dispassionately and twisted his wrist even harder.
"Ah, argh...! You son of a bitch...!"
As his scream erupted, the men in the room all backed away.
"Hey! What is this, did the drug not work?!"
The panicked men's eyes darted around in confusion.
"Shut up."
I flicked my wrist and looked at them.
