Chapter Title: We're Your Property, Master (2)

The words about how they might become a force of evil and end up opposing the Magical Girl Management Bureau.
Ja-hyun figured they'd respond with something like how it was impossible for magical girls, who stood for justice, to become agents of evil.
Or that they became magical girls to protect the citizens as heroes, so they couldn't possibly do that.
"So... what's the problem with that? We're already corrupted by you."
"Exactly. We're already the property of Manager-nim... no, Master."
But their responses were completely different from what he'd expected.
They acted like there was no issue at all since they were already his female slaves and possessions.
"We didn't become magical girls out of some sense of duty in the first place."
What Flora had admired wasn't a sense of duty to protect the citizens or a righteous heart.
It was the glamorous, elegant form of a magical girl and the immense power that came with it.
The beauty of a magical girl was what she'd craved.
"All I ever wanted was to be like the ones I saw on TV as a kid.
I just wanted to escape from those guys who treated me like air."
She wanted to break free from that dark, neglectful home where she wasn't even properly treated like a child.
To live a free life closest to the image she'd always admired.
Flora had the aptitude for it... the qualification to enjoy such a life as a magical girl.
And so, she'd chosen the path of a magical girl.
"To be honest... it's the same for me.
Our family was so poor... I wanted a job that could make a lot of money."
Athena hadn't become a magical girl out of some heroic mindset either.
Up until recently, she'd been shackled by poverty,
forced to watch her once harmonious family grow increasingly strained and rough.
She'd known from childhood that it was all because her family was poor,
so she'd skipped college and taken on countless part-time jobs to earn money.
But becoming a magical girl meant she could pay off her father's debts
and live a better life in a nicer home. That vision had driven her.
It wasn't just Flora who had that qualification—Aphena did too.
"Even though we pretend like we have no worries or hardships."
Whenever they had troubles or difficulties, they never shared them with him.
That's why, when Jae-hyun said he had something to talk about, Flora had been terrified at first.
She worried he might quit as their manager—after all, they'd bullied him before, and now they were even squeezing him dry.
"Well... I'm glad you told me honestly. It puts my mind at ease."
"We had to tell you someday. You made the right choice!"
Once Jae-hyun had explained everything honestly,
the two of them felt relieved to open up about their own pasts.
"And this wicked power you gave us... I've been dying to try it out... ♥"
"Becoming villains... it sounds so thrilling... ♥"
Athena and Flora's faces flushed with excitement.
Even the air around them began to fill with thick demonic energy, accompanied by pitch-black smoke.
It was the same energy as the black liquid that had enveloped them when they fell.
The complete opposite of the pure, refreshing mana of a magical girl.
It was a chilling force brimming with endless greed, malice, and depravity.
In truth, ever since they'd acknowledged Jae-hyun as their master and submitted to corruption,
transforming into their old pure selves no longer felt natural.
It was awkward to take on the form of a pure magical girl with mana that had twisted into something sinister.
As they kept receiving his semen—absorbing more and more of his wicked power—it only grew stronger,
and suppressing it indefinitely had become an exhausting ordeal for them.
'Is this the "sense of incongruity" the Bureau Chief was talking about...?'
A few days ago, during their face-to-face meeting, the Bureau Chief had mentioned it.
She'd sensed something off in the mana of the two magical girls under Jae-hyun's care.
If even Jae-hyun, bearer of the Evil God's power, could feel it this strongly,
then for her—who had honed pure mana for so long—it must have been overwhelmingly intense.
Now, Jae-hyun finally understood what she'd meant.
'The females marked by you cannot defy your commands,
and led by you, they gradually succumb to desire and pleasure.'
The Evil God's words about how females who fell to desire and pleasure would ultimately be infused with wicked power and malice.
These two no longer had even a shred of the professional sense of duty expected of magical girls.
They'd only kept doing magical girl work because no order had come to stop.
Protecting citizens or safeguarding the world? They couldn't care less how that turned out.
The most important thing was the thick, merciful pleasure bestowed by their male master.
And obeying their master's commands.
If Jae-hyun ordered them to go outside and attack the citizens right now,
Athena and Flora would carry it out gladly, with joyful hearts.
Of course, what they needed now wasn't brute force destruction of the city or direct confrontation with the Bureau.
As the Evil God had said, they needed to corrupt more magical girls in secret,
gradually turning the Bureau's forces into his own.
"Anyway... for now, we need to corrupt more magical girls beyond just you two.
We don't have the manpower or power to call ourselves a force of evil yet."
"You're right. We're not strong enough on our own."
"I hate to admit it... but yeah."
Athena and Flora were among the stronger magical girls in the Bureau.
But they weren't top-tier powerhouses you could count on one hand.
From former magical girl Hestia—the current Bureau Chief Cha Yoon—to the veteran actives with years of experience,
there were plenty of exceptional powerhouses.
So Jae-hyun needed to keep injecting his semen to bolster their wicked power
while simultaneously corrupting more magical girls.
"As a manager, it'd be tough for me to move around directly.
So... I'd like to ask for your active help."
Quitting as manager to hunt magical girls directly was too unrealistic.
But staying a manager and approaching non-assigned girls would raise suspicions.
To make contact with others, he desperately needed their cooperation.
So Jae-hyun set aside his role as their male master for a moment
and bowed his head politely as a Bureau manager and upstanding citizen.
"You don't have to bow like that."
"We're always ready to receive Master's orders!"
The two stopped him from bowing, saying it wasn't necessary.
For possessions like them, it was only natural—and joyful—for their master to command them.
Him bowing to ask felt too burdensome.
'I really did the right thing becoming this man's bitch... ♥'
'To serve such an amazing master... I'm so happy... ♥'
Of course, it was also proof of how much Jae-hyun cared for them,
so seeing his earnest, polite attitude filled them with joy.
The joy of being able to become the possession of such a male.
"If we're corrupting more magical girls in the Bureau,
should we introduce you to the ones we're close to?"
"That seems the most natural approach."
Friends visited each other's offices often,
and they sometimes had lunch with each other's managers.
Athena in particular, with her gentle and polite personality,
had a few magical girl acquaintances she'd gotten friendly with.
"I don't know many people... but I'll do my best."
Unlike Athena, Flora had hardly any connections in the Bureau,
but since it was Jae-hyun's order, she'd do whatever she could.
'Hunting magical girls directly is an option too... but not yet.'
In truth, Jae-hyun had considered directly hunting magical girls.
With the two powerhouses now embracing fallen demonic energy,
they could easily overpower average magical girls.
But as he'd thought earlier, the Bureau was full of outliers,
and they lacked the strength and forces to face them yet.
So he decided to shelve that method until his harem grew and his power swelled.
- *Ding~*
Just as they wrapped up their discussion on the plan forward,
the notification sounded for the delivery food Jae-hyun had ordered earlier.
"Looks like the food's here... so shall we call it for now?"
They'd talked plenty already,
and if more was needed, they could brainstorm later.
"Perfect timing. I was getting hungry."
"Yes!"
