Chapter 16
A little further back in time.
This was the moment the three of them stepped into the secret room inside the principal's office.
"It's not a lie. This facility truly exists to research Chaos... the monsters you call the Hongoe."
"So that means you're also thinking of ways to defeat them?"
"Of course."
On the way here, Dean Gran had explained nearly everything about his situation.
About his destroyed world.
About how he wanted breeding females—exceptional ones—to preserve his species.
And above all else.
He wanted the power to defeat the enemies that had annihilated his homeland.
"Our world had all kinds of weapons. Physical, chemical, you name it."
Beyond the open door lay another corridor.
They walked down its long length.
According to him, the core device capable of releasing everyone from hypnosis waited somewhere ahead.
"But those weapons still didn't work, right?"
"Correct. It wasn't a matter of firepower. Our weapons had no effect on them whatsoever."
That was why they had been helpless.
Unable to do anything at all.
His homeland had been destroyed.
It felt similar to Yeon Do-hwa's own memories.
The world she had come from.
Even in modern times, most weapons had been useless against them.
But.
"The power of the humans here—the martial artists of Murim—did work."
The reason he had founded Cheonlim Academy and gathered martial artists from every direction.
"Their sword qi, that special stellar power, could cut them down."
So he was collecting Murim warriors to study their strength.
...Still, weren't there other ways?
The fact that he controlled them through hypnosis already placed him firmly beyond the bounds of mere evil.
'And where are all the men?'
It wasn't only young women who had been invited to the academy.
There were men as well.
Yet in this school, she had never once seen a male martial artist from the Murim world.
The answer to that question had not yet been revealed.
They reached the door on the opposite side.
Beyond it lay the 'core' he had spoken of.
The hypnotic core that controlled them all.
"? Open it."
For some reason.
Right in front of the door.
Dean Gran had stopped.
"Do you know why I went to the trouble of gathering master—Peak Realm martial artists?"
"...Because they can manifest sword qi?"
"Precisely. And the strength of those below that realm remains useless against the Chaos."
But.
If that was the case.
Wouldn't it have been better to gather warriors beyond Peak Realm, even more exceptional ones?
Their qi in both quantity and quality would surely far surpass that of Peak experts.
"The problem is that doesn't work. The higher the realm, the less effective hypnosis becomes. Not that it's completely useless, though."
It was only natural.
Warriors who had attained enlightenment and crossed the wall.
The further they advanced, the more resolute their upper dantian became.
No matter how advanced the power of science.
Controlling those who had surpassed the human limit was no easy task.
"Exactly—like that bitch over there. The young cult leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, wasn't it?"
Yeon Do-hwa felt a fresh wave of unease.
For some reason.
Dan Jua, standing right behind her, was completely silent.
Unnaturally so.
Hssssssssssssss—!!
"......?!"
Suddenly.
Gas began pouring from the ceiling of the passage where they stood.
Yeon Do-hwa reacted instantly.
She took a deep breath and held it.
At the same time she circulated her true qi.
The peach-colored energy that bloomed once more wrapped around her, keeping the gas at bay.
Shick—!
In a single slash.
She severed the neck of the gas's source—Dean Gran—without warning.
The severed head tumbled to the floor, rolling away.
But.
The head that fell, spraying blood, was smiling.
"Sorry for the deception. No way the boss would step out in front like that. I'm not some brainless fool."
The severed head moved its lips.
Yet the voice did not come from its mouth, but from the speaker in the ceiling.
What she had cut was not the real body but a clone!
And the true body was hiding somewhere, watching and observing them the entire time!
"......!"
Click—
She sheathed her sword.
Not because she had given up.
To gather her power.
'I'll cut the entire door—!'
With the blade sheathed.
She poured true qi into her whole body and the sword, taking a stance to unleash her technique.
But at that exact moment.
Shick—!
A sword strike came whipping from behind.
She barely sensed it and rolled forward to evade.
"......Lady Jua...!?"
The one who had swung the blade.
Was Dan Jua.
"......"
There was no answer from Dan Jua.
Only that her eyes and face looked strangely lifeless.
As if she were being controlled.
Like a puppet.
"Haha, hahahahaha!! How naïve! Your thinking is far too shallow, female warrior!!"
"It's already been four days since I threw that bitch into the reflection room!"
"She's already in the palm of my hand! That bitch!!"
Once again.
Rapidly.
Purple streaks of light flew toward her.
She met Dan Jua's sword with her own to block it.
Kwaaang!!
"...Ugh...?!"
The heavy impact.
Even the power of the Lotus Art couldn't fully absorb it, and she was sent flying into the wall.
'She's strong!'
This power far exceeded the Peak Realm.
And from what Dean Gran had said earlier.
Perhaps Dan Jua was...!
"Do you have time to rest?"
The domineering purple sword strike flew at her again.
Yeon Do-hwa raised her energy to block it once more.
But she couldn't stop it completely!
With every successive strike.
Her body and sword qi shook, chipped away, sent her flying, and knocked her down.
No. This couldn't continue.
In a situation where she could barely breathe... like this...!
.
.
.
Gran, who had been watching the passage through the camera, finally confirmed that all the gas had been vented and opened the door.
In the corridor, Yeon Do-hwa sat collapsed on the floor.
Dan Jua stood staggering, staring blankly into space.
It seemed the gas hadn't fully affected Dan Jua.
But for Yeon Do-hwa, it had been more than enough.
Swoosh—
He injected each of them directly with a syringe.
A special blend containing muscle relaxants.
With that, both women completely lost consciousness.
Care units arrived shortly afterward, lifted their bodies, and carried them away.
The passage.
Returned to its original silence.
Quest Achieved!
Relationship value with Dan Jua has exceeded 50%!
Special reward granted!
The two sleeping women were moved to the bedroom connected to the principal's office.
The hypnosis device meant to hold them was still being prepared.
Until it was ready, he intended to keep them here.
They were dangerous females, to be sure.
But he had injected them with more than enough drugs.
On top of that, he was monitoring their brainwaves in real time, so if they showed any sign of waking he could respond immediately.
"Both of you really did whatever you pleased, didn't you?"
Dean Gran muttered to himself.
He licked his lips, rubbed his hands together, and approached the pair.
Now, which one to savor first?
After a battle like that.
After moving around so much.
Yet strangely, both women still gave off a delicious taste and scent.
The nanomachines planted in their bodies were partly responsible.
But more than that, he believed it came from the qi of Murim warriors.
Otherwise there was no way they would smell and taste so different.
"Delicious. So delicious."
Dean Gran licked their bodies as much as he desired.
Every inch.
Every hidden corner.
The sensitive places of the females.
He toyed with them without the slightest hesitation.
He kissed both their lips again and again, feeding them his saliva.
He kissed their clitorises.
And pushed aphrodisiac-coated fingers into their pussy holes, stirring them thoroughly.
Even though they were asleep.
Both bodies responded eagerly, soon dripping with sweat and love juices.
The scent of bitches in heat that could be smelled even from a distance.
He pulled out his fully erect cock.
It was rock-hard with lust and rage.
"You arrogant bitches."
Who to fuck first?
After a moment's thought, he decided to start with Yeon Do-hwa's pussy.
With a wet schlorp.
His cock pierced the sleeping woman's cunt.
Even while unconscious.
He could feel her pussy twitching and squeezing around the invading shaft.
Squish squish squish squish—
Splurt... splurt... gush...!
He stirred, tasted, and ground against that pussy to his heart's content.
And finally poured as much cum as he wanted deep inside her.
Even after emptying himself, he pulled out and shook the remaining semen onto her face.
"This is how females should look."
A short while later.
Dan Jua was similarly defiled.
.
.
.
While he was still enjoying their bodies, a notification arrived that the hypnosis device was ready.
He gave Dan Jua's pussy one final thick load, then took both women and moved them.
Clank—
Whiiiiiiirrr—
The hypnosis device locked their bodies in place.
On their heads were placed devices far larger and more sophisticated than the 'learning device' Yeon Do-hwa used every night.
Not only Yeon Do-hwa, who had caused the disturbance.
Dan Jua was placed into a separate unit alongside her.
Dan Jua had been concealing her true realm.
He had created a new hypnosis program tailored to her.
He had seen the results of it earlier.
But it was still not enough.
'What happened earlier was practically a gamble.'
A gamble with less than thirty percent chance of success.
He had no desire to repeat it.
Needles and tubes for drug injection had been inserted all over their bodies.
Through these tubes, drugs that increased the efficiency of hypnosis were administered.
Heightening sexual desire and sensitivity was simply an added bonus.
The effects and aftereffects of the drugs would not fade.
They would remain in their bodies and continue to torment them.
"You couldn't bear to watch women being tormented, so you rebelled—is that it?"
The two had broken free of his hypnotic shackles.
Dan Jua had hidden her true power.
Yeon Do-hwa had regained her senses at the voice begging for help.
To save a woman.
They trampled men.
And called that chivalry.
"How insolent."
You dare call that chivalry?
Don't make me laugh.
How dare a mere female.
Rebel against a male, against her superior.
A bitch looking down on men.
Not knowing how to respect men.
Not knowing her place.
These damn bitches.
"I'll teach you properly what a woman is supposed to be."
"And just how shallow your so-called chivalry really is."
This was a school, after all.
A school was precisely.
A place that taught such lessons.

………………
………
……
The next day.
I woke up.
Just like always.
"......?"
I opened my eyes and stared blankly at the ceiling.
The ceiling faintly lit by the early dawn light.
It was the familiar dormitory ceiling.
'...What happened yesterday...?'
I sat up in bed, still half-asleep.
