Chapter 533: Human World [R-18] (63)
After thoroughly teasing Bi-yeon and filling her womb with my semen, I summoned my daughters into the real world one by one.
“Summon.”
The first to appear was Sora.
“Whoa! Is this really the real world?!”
Her large eyes sparkled as she looked around, so excited she seemed ready to dash out at any moment.
Next, Lucy appeared.
“Hoo… It’s nice not to smell rotting corpses.”
A subtle satisfaction was evident in the way she breathed the air. She gazed at the city lights outside the window in admiration, then muttered.
“Papa, there are so many people here. The smell of blood is so thick.”
The third was Ha-young.
“Heeey~ The ruined world didn't have much to do for fun… but this place has so many interesting things.”
She was already wandering around the living room, fiddling with every object she could get her hands on.
Finally, Ha-yul slowly walked out.
“So this is… Father’s home…”
She calmly looked around before taking a deep breath.
“Sniff, sniff… Father’s scent♡”
Like a pet, she twitched her nose, checking the scent around me first.
Once all four daughters were summoned, the house was instantly bustling. Their distinct personalities made the atmosphere loud and lively.
“Alright, from now on, this is our home. It might take some time to get used to, but—”
Just then, Bi-yeon, who had been sprawled out on the sofa, slowly opened her eyes.
“Ugh… What’s going on? Why is it so noisy all of a sudden…”
And soon, her eyes met my daughters’.
A strange tension filled the air, like females establishing a pecking order. My women were naturally sensitive about their rank, and even my daughters were like that with each other… So it was only natural for them to be wary of Bi-yeon, a woman they’d never met, especially one who had been with me for a long time.
They probably watched everything Bi-yeon and I did in the waiting space, too.
Bi-yeon was the first to smile.
“I’m Bi-yeon. The one who will become your m-o-t-h-e-r. Of course, I’ll be the main wife, so be good.”
“…Ajumma, who do you think you are, calling yourself the main wife?”
At Lucy’s cold ‘ajumma,’ a thick vein bulged on Bi-yeon’s forehead.
“A-Ajumma…?”
“Heehee, ajumma.”
Ha-young, who was next to Lucy, chimed in playfully.
And then Sora piled on.
“Ajumma, I think we younger girls are a better fit for the main wife. Sorry.”
Her words sent a chill through the room. Their gazes clashed, sharp and hostile. The tension was so thick it felt like someone would pounce at any second.
Meanwhile, Ha-yul, completely ignoring the atmosphere, crouched down, rummaged through a drawer, and pulled out my underwear to press against her nose.
“Sniff, sniff…♡”
A faint blush crept onto her cheeks, and her eyes went slightly unfocused.
“Father’s scent…”
In that instant, the gazes of Bi-yeon and all my daughters simultaneously shifted to Ha-yul. The murderous atmosphere instantly dissolved into expressions of disbelief.
Feeling their stares, Ha-yul flinched slightly and averted her gaze.
“Wh-What are you all looking at?”
“Ugh… Ha-young is just a pervert, but she’s on a whole other level of serious.”
Lucy clicked her tongue as if looking at something pathetic, and the other daughters nodded in unison.
Bi-yeon also shook her head.
“She’s Jin Seo-yun’s daughter, all right…”
With the tension suddenly broken, I clapped my hands once.
“Alright, everyone, no fighting. Let’s all get along. And since we’re in the real world, let’s start by eating something delicious.”
“Okay~!”
The four daughters’ voices rang out in unison, and a cheerful atmosphere finally began to seep into the room.
I had occasionally fed them something similar to real-world food back in the zombie world, but my options were extremely limited since I was trying to save points.
But at the word ‘food,’ the first to react was none other than Bi-yeon.
“Alright, then I’ll pick the menu today. Does anyone have anything they want to eat?”
“Ooh~ I want the chicken that ajumma was eating earlier! I want to try that!”
Sora’s eyes sparkled as she recalled the chicken Bi-yeon had been tearing into.
“I want the pizza everyone’s always talking about!”
Ha-young was already picturing cheese stretching in her mind.
Lucy rested her chin on her hand, tilting her head slightly.
“I’ll have a rare steak, please.”
Finally, Ha-yul calmly raised her hand.
“Um, I… think a salad will be fine.”
And so, the day passed in cheerful harmony.
*
With only a week left in the summoning period, I decided to spend as much of that precious time as possible with my daughters in the real world. My face was already too famous from various incidents and rumors, and walking around the city would undoubtedly draw too much attention, so I changed my appearance to that of a completely different, ordinary man.
In that state, I headed downtown with my daughters. Today’s objective was simple: to get them proper clothes, from underwear and casual wear to outfits for going out.
“Father, what do you think of this dress?”
Ha-yul asked, holding up a black one-piece. I nodded.
“It looks good on you.”
“Papa! How about this one?!”
Lucy was holding a dress with thin shoulder straps that was blatantly revealing.
“Um… Lucy, isn’t that a little too revealing?”
“Dad!!”
Ha-young shook a clothes hanger, on the verge of tears.
“They said they don’t have any clothes that fit my chest size!”
“That’s a problem. We’ll have to custom-order something.”
Despite my robotic response, no one paid any mind.
Ugh, when will this end…?
It was only then that I truly, painfully understood what it meant to go shopping with women. Hangers piled up, they took turns posing in front of the mirror, and the question, “How about this one?” was repeated endlessly.
In the midst of it all, Bi-yeon was picking out clothes with my daughters, recommending styles to one another.
“This one matches your skin tone well.”
“Ajumma, what about this? …No, I mean, Bi-yeon unni.”
I sighed internally.
Seriously… these girls were growling at each other yesterday, so why are they getting along so well now that they’re shopping?
I guess girls will be girls. They hit it off in no time.
It’s already been three hours.
I was about to suggest we head back, but the glares I received from my daughters—a first—made me shut my mouth. The disappointed look on Sora’s face, in particular, really hurt.
In the end, I had no choice but to go at their pace. But I was reaching my physical and mental limits in this shopping marathon with no end in sight.
Just then, my smartphone vibrated in my pocket.
The name on the screen was ‘Im Hye-rin.’
“Yes, Mother-in-law.”
[Seo-yun, I need to talk to you urgently. Can you come now?]
Her voice carried an unusual urgency. It seemed something important had happened.
Thinking it was perfect timing, I immediately accepted.
“I’ll be right there. Where should I go?”
[Come to the Halcyon Guild headquarters.]
“Understood. I’m on my way.”
After hanging up, I turned back to my daughters.
“Sorry, something urgent came up. You all enjoy the shopping without me.”
“Aww, already?”
Ha-young looked disappointed, but seeing the serious expression on my face, she quickly understood.
“It must be something important. It’s okay, Dad.”
At Sora’s words, Lucy also nodded.
“If Papa’s busy, it can’t be helped. But where are you going?”
“To Im Hye-rin… my mother-in-law’s company.”
Ha-yul tilted her head.
“Mother-in-law… Does that mean you’re married, Father?”
“Well, it’s a complicated relationship. I’ll explain later.”
Bi-yeon chimed in as she organized the shopping bags.
“So, we’re on our own?”
“Yeah, you’re in charge of the kids. Make sure they don’t cause any trouble.”
I looked at each of my daughters and gave them instructions.
“Lucy, don’t kill anyone without a good reason.”
“Got it, Papa.”
“Ha-young, maintain your human form and don’t ever use your slime abilities.”
Right now, Ha-young had human-like skin, not her usual translucent slime appearance.
“Okay~”
And finally, I looked at Sora.
“The nursing device I set you up with—make sure you're wearing it properly. Don't let it come off. It'll be a disaster if your clothes get wet.”
“…Okay.”
Sora blushed and gave a slight nod.
“Ha-yul…”
“Don’t worry, Father. I’ll take good care of my sisters.”
Ha-yul replied calmly, but I was still uneasy.
“Bi-yeon, I’m really counting on you. This is their first time in the real world, so they lack common sense.”
“I know, I know. Go take care of your business.”
I gave my daughters one last warning.
“Don’t ever split up, and listen to what Bi-yeon says. Got it?”
“Okay~”
They answered in unison, but for some reason, I didn’t feel reassured.
Will they really listen…
I was especially worried about the curious Ha-young and the free-spirited Lucy.
“I’m heading out then. Call me immediately if anything happens.”
“Okay, come back soon!”
Sora waved cheerfully to see me off, and the other daughters and Bi-yeon nodded from the window.
I glanced back one more time before getting in the car. Looking at their figures through the window, a short sigh escaped me.
Please… just don’t cause any trouble.
I had considered taking them with me… but somehow, I felt like that would lead to even bigger trouble.
Especially with Im Hye-rin.
If my daughters ever called her ajumma or grandma… we’d be holding a funeral that very day.
Im Hye-rin was sensitive about her age. And considering my daughters’ unfiltered mouths, a chill ran down my spine.
On top of that, she had a strong personality. If Im Hye-rin and Im Hwa-yeon were to clash at the same time… the scene was too horrifying to even imagine.
Lost in worry, I soon arrived in front of the Halcyon Guild headquarters. I got out of the car and headed straight for the top floor.
When I opened the conference room door, two women with serious expressions turned their heads at the same time.
Im Hye-rin and Im Hwa-yeon were together.
“You’re both here.”
At my words, they both replied.
“Yes, you got here sooner than I expected.”
“Jin Seo-yun! Why haven’t you been in touch!”
I covered Im Hwa-yeon’s mouth with my palm as she started to nag and sat in the chair next to her. Then I turned to Im Hye-rin and asked.
“More importantly, what did you call me for?”
“I need you to see this. It’s a video from the Association.”
A video started playing on the tablet she handed me. It showed a laboratory with pristine white walls, where researchers in white coats were dissecting pieces of a corpse.
“What is this…?”
“It seems the World Association recovered Alexander’s body and has been secretly studying it. Now, watch the next part.”
I focused on the screen.
[Hmm… A machine error? I’m still getting an Aether reaction from the corpse. Strange.]
[Hey, isn’t it just a simple glitch? No matter how you look at it, this is just a hunk of flesh.]
[Well, we’re just doing what the higher-ups told us to do.]
As the researchers’ conversation continued, a strange movement appeared on the screen. A severed piece of flesh twitched, then began to transform as if it were alive. In an instant, tentacles shot out and lunged at one of the researchers.
[Gyaaaah!]
[Dammit! Request backup immediately—Gaaack!]
A thick, smooth tentacle pierced the researcher’s skull and burrowed into his brain. The next moment, the infected researcher grabbed a colleague’s head and tore out his brain, eating it.
And then, a voice came from its mouth.
[J-J-Jin… S-S-Seo… Seo-yun… Sacrifice… w-will… d-devour…]
Without taking my eyes off the screen, I muttered in a low voice.
“…Did that thing just say my name?”
“It did. And… there’s more.”
When Im Hye-rin swiped the screen, the video changed. The now fully infected researcher was consuming human brains, moving from body to body. Amidst the pandemonium of blood and screams, the monster relentlessly hunted down person after person.
Among them were not just simple researchers, but also individuals who were clearly high-level combatants.
But the result was the same.
[Fuck! Call for an S-Class ability user, now!]
Someone screamed in desperation, but it was too late. The monster instantly replicated the powers of the ability users it absorbed, wielding them as freely as if they were its own well-used weapons.
And from its fingertips, a brilliant golden radiance flashed—
“…That’s Alexander’s technique.”
“Yes. And it’s not just mimicking the technique.”
Im Hye-rin’s voice grew even lower.
“It’s a perfect replication. As if… it’s Alexander himself.”
I narrowed my eyes, watching the screen. The golden radiance split the air, melting the laboratory walls, and corpses floated in the air amidst the blast wave. The monster paused for a moment, then turned its head toward the camera.
And I could see its lips move.
[…Jin. Seo. Yun.]
Its gaze felt as if it were looking directly at me, through the screen.
