The Scenery Outside the Village
"When we get home, I'll cum just as much again, but this time right into Jia herself, so hang in there!"
"Ugh... damn it..."
Pat pat.
"Our Jia's such a good girl... listen to oppa. How about we cuddle up tight tonight and sleep? If you're good and do as you're told, I'll give you some semen before bed. You can drink lots of oppa's warm semen and drift off feeling great?"
"Uu... slurp... oooh...! Yeah! But you have to give me morning semen too when we wake up. Right away first thing!"
"Yeah, yeah..."
What a pain in the ass.
While I coaxed and soothed her, the ritual resumed.
The ominous energy grew ever more intense.
Ding-□daeng-dong-
The lunch bell signaling the end of fourth period twisted grotesquely, stretching out unnaturally.
Even as the bell rang, the ritual didn't stop.
"Su-hee."
We need to get out of the school.
"Is there any school rule that'd get us in trouble if we head out right now...?"
I glanced at Su-hee on instinct, only to see her collapsed on the floor, convulsing.
Has her mind been affected by this bizarre worship ritual?
Damn it all.
If we stay like this...
I scooped Su-hee up into my arms.
I figured an adult woman would be heavy, but weirdly enough, it was no big deal. My body brimmed with strength.
"Jia, Mom looks sick. Let's head home early. If anything shows up, send it back—you have my permission to use suggestion."
"O-oh? Yeah! Got it!"
Kang Jia's and my footsteps echoed through the hallway as we bolted.
Strangely, even as we dashed out of the classroom and bounded down the stairs, my arms and legs didn't tremble in the slightest.
She's gotta weigh at least 40-50kg, at minimum.
The bizarre chants growing fiercer from the classroom behind us only filled me with more vitality.
What the hell is this?
I've ejaculated an abnormal amount, but instead of feeling drained, I'm surging with energy. That's blatantly unnatural. Exaggerating a bit, it's like a half-liter PET bottle of fluid just vanished in an instant—no dehydration, nothing.
Something else from this Altered Common Sense is clearly affecting my body, but I can't tell if it's good or bad...
The incantations muttered by those tentacle monsters from that bizarre dream last night.
And the ones used in the worship ritual in the classroom.
The tone was slightly different, but they were strikingly similar.
And my gut says those chants are dangerous. No hard evidence, just instinct. But after dying four times already, can I really dismiss this as mere hunch?
More importantly, if I'm being influenced by that ritual, staying in the school is risky.
What if it's not just boosting my vitality?
What if it's turning my very existence into some kind of monster?
Like that monkey's paw tale—something that seems beneficial at first twisting into the worst outcome. Total cliché.
I don't want to end up as some octopus-legged tentacle freak.
So I need to break free from this influence as fast as possible.
"Ugh, uuu... Yu... han...?"
"Su-hee... I mean, Mom, you okay?"
"Ah, uh, yeah... what happened?"
"Something weird went down in the classroom, and you suddenly passed out."
"Ugh... my head hurts..."
I set Su-hee down from the princess carry, and thankfully, she could walk on her own soon enough.
"Mom, any school rules against leaving campus right now?"
Su-hee pressed her temples for a moment, then shook her head.
"No, nothing like that. Early dismissal or outings are fine with a teacher, and it's lunchtime anyway—doors are free to use."
Good.
"Then let's head to your car for now. Staying at school feels dangerous."
"Yeah, let's do that. Follow me."
We'd already sprinted to the parking lot, so her car wasn't far.
Su-hee pulled out her keys and unlocked it.
A pretty decent mid-size sedan.
Guess she makes good money after all?
"Hop in."
Inside, a thick white musk scent hung in the air—probably her shampoo.
"Whoa, Mom's car smells so nice~."
"Oh... does it?"
"Yeah. Oh yeah, where do you live, Mom? Are we all living together now?"
Kang Jia tossed out a random question that didn't fit the moment.
"I live in an apartment near the school. Living together..."
She glanced at me in the rearview mirror.
Jia's used to me by now, but from Su-hee's perspective, bunking with a psycho stalker like this must sound awful. She's basically begging for backup.
"Jia, Mom has her own place. Kicking her out suddenly would be weird, right?"
"Hmph... I guess... but aren't families supposed to live together...?"
I don't know her past, but she sure obsesses over the ideal family image. Good thing there's a surefire fix for times like this.
"Don't you wanna live just the two of us, Jia? I love having you all to myself."
"Wh-wha? No!? I mean yes!? I love it!! I'd be so happy!!"
"Good. Then Mom can visit our place sometimes. Got it?"
"Yeah! I'm gonna snuggle with oppa all alone! Hehe~."
Even if she thinks we're real family, parents dropping by their grown son's place isn't weird. Su-hee didn't seem opposed either.
"Anyway, where to?"
"Drive out of the village for now. Keep going along the road—something's bound to show up, right?"
"Why outside the village?"
Oh! I never explained the forgotten rules popping into my head to Su-hee.
I gave her a quick rundown of the weird stuff I've been dealing with—including how the last one was about checking the scenery outside the village.
No point hiding it from an ally who already knows about regressions on death.
"What a bizarre world. So when do these 'rules' pop up? Randomly?"
Tough question.
"Well..."
I squeezed my eyes shut and blurted it out. She's an ally. Hiding key info would hurt me more.
"Sexual... satisfaction. Like, intense orgasms seem to wake my brain up and make them surface."
Flinch!
"Wh-what? U-uuah?"
Vrooom!!
"Eek!"
The car suddenly lurched forward—must've floored the accelerator by accident. Good thing nothing was in front.
"S-sorry! Ugh..."
"It's fine... haha..."
"S-so... did one pop up earlier when Mom... jerked you off?"
Gulp.
In the rearview, Su-hee's flushed face stared back with expectant eyes.
What’s she hoping for?
Maybe validation that her first-ever handjob satisfied me.
"Yeah, it did. Something like 'Find the balance between two existences'—total nonsense rule."
"I see... hehe... ohoho."
Her face red, Su-hee gave a sly smile and started driving without another word.
"Any idea what that rule means, Mom?"
"Huh? No, not enough info yet... I'll let you know if I figure it out, hehe."
For someone claiming ignorance, she looked awfully pleased.
Proud that her hand skills satisfied a guy with no prior experience? Su-hee seems way more open-minded than she looks. Guess that saying about women in their prime having explosive libidos like men is spot on...
Vrooom-
The car smoothly took off after the brief hiccup.
The village is bigger than I thought.
The road was quiet, but it felt like it'd take a while.
The excess vitality in my body faded the farther we got from school.
At least escaping the grounds was the right call.
"Uhhm~ hmm~ eee~ hoong... nice..."
Kang Jia rubbed her face against my arm like we were some family on a picnic.
Speaking of which, there were things I could ask her directly.
Last loop, when I first tried approaching the 'parents,' she definitely felt some fear.
Part of it was anxiety I'd get hurt, but also dread of the parents themselves.
"Jia, you know anything about those 'parents' living in our house?"
"Ah... you mean Mom and Dad..."
Kang Jia's face darkened.
"Actually... haa..."
Odd for her to hesitate like this when she usually chatters nonstop.
"It's okay. No need to hide from oppa. I know everything already. I like you just as you are, Jia. So tell me straight."
"Gasp... uu♡... y-you're cheating... whispering that in my ear... uu..."
Her thighs twitched.
Always in heat at the drop of a hat.
"So? What are they? Not our real parents, right."
"Yeah... how to put it... ghosts? Weird... monsters? They don't die. No matter how much I hack them up, they come back to life. And they just... reappear like they were always there... and... uum... if you don't call them parents, they get super mad... and try to eat you... uum... and... and more..."
Frustrating. She babbles nonstop when ordering me to get hard or cum on command, but sucks at explaining anything.
"Anyway, they're weird! Total freaks!"
So, immortal beings. Hackable means they have physical form... reappear in the kitchen next day like nothing happened, attack if you don't treat them as parents. Sound less like murderers or monsters, more like conceptual entities from ghost stories.
"Jia, you know a lot of those weird undying things?"
"A lot...? Not tons. The janitor wandering the school... this super tall masked lady who shows up on the way to school weekends... uum... and sometimes this little kid in the school bathroom at night?"
So the janitor's immortal too.
Damn, every ghost under the sun. Ones you've heard of once or twice.
Are they really prowling the real world?
As I pondered how to deal with them, Su-hee screamed from the front seat.
"Wh-what!? Kyaaaaah!!"
Screeech-!!
Thud!!
"Ugh... M-Mom! What happened?"
"Ow... uu... Oppa~ Jia got hurt... kiss it better here..."
I grabbed Jia's outstretched hand, pecked it a few times dismissively, and shoved it away.
"Whee!"
"Wh-what the hell is that?!"
Unlike the childish Jia, Su-hee's voice trembled with terror.
"What..."
I poked my head between the front seats and peered through the windshield. I instantly understood what had scared her so badly.
Poke...
The sight unfolding right in front of the car made the fine hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.
