Gu Mirae's Circumstances 1
Poke—poke—poke—poke—poke—poke—
"Is this the cure?"
Patients suffering from mana overflow from all over the world were lined up in a row. Just like prisoners stood against a wall for execution by firing squad. I was running along, stabbing them one by one with Phnoima.
Poke, poke, poke— There were so damn many patients that we did mass treatments like this once a week. Stabbing them with a sword to earn foreign currency today too. My mana kept growing too—one stone, two birds.
"But... that Ukrainian granny hunter over there is a woman... Does treating her with Phnoima even work?"
"Shut up. Just do it."
I slammed a fist into Kwon Si-hyeok's solar plexus after he noticed I was only picking the pretty women.
After the press conference where I quelled Kwon Si-hyeok's mana overflow, the world flipped upside down. The internet was plastered with articles and videos about "Demon Hunter Park Woojin," and my name refused to leave the top of real-time search rankings.
I sat on the sofa, indifferently swiping through the flood of articles on my tablet. Everything was moving within the grand scheme drawn up by Team Leader Gu Gwangan-cheol and me. The public was ecstatic over the emergence of a new hero, and 'Love Korea Guild' skyrocketed to become Korea's top guild in an instant. On the other hand, 'Daehan Guild's' fall was almost pitiful to watch.
"Boring."
I tossed the tablet aside in the Hunter Association's VIP room and tilted my wine glass. The real fight wasn't this public opinion war. It was Baal's forces lurking in the shadows and their power source, the drug cartel. Until I uprooted that, all this was just illusion.
Then, my smartphone buzzed briefly in my pocket. The name on the screen was 'Gu Mirae'.
The message was short, but the desperation in it felt vivid enough to pierce the screen. A faint smile tugged at my lips.
'It's come.'
Ra Seung-gun, that sleazy adulterer bastard, must've finally done something, or Gu Mirae's mana overflow was starting up again.
I sent a simple reply and started getting ready for work. After Kim Myeon-hyeong's arrest, the company owner switched to Seo Ji-hye. We changed the name to 'WJ Games,' and all existing employees continued under an M&A structure. I sank into the soft leather seat of my Bentley, staring up at WJ Games' massive glass building. The fortress built from Kim Myeon-hyeong's greed now belonged to Ji-won Yeong with 30%, Seo Ji-hye with 30%, and 20% in my name... mine.
As I entered the company lobby, I felt the air shift subtly. Whispers mixed with curiosity and a hint of fear. Everyone was stealing glances at me.
'Korea's Strongest, the Demon Hunter Who Saved the Tyrant.'
The sensational headlines scorching the internet followed me like an invisible halo.
I savored those gazes as I boarded the elevator. Stepping into the office, the familiar scene greeted me: keyboard clacks, ringing phones, colleagues' low chatter. Everything seemed normal, but cracks from my presence were forming in that normalcy.
"Deputy Park Woojin, good morning."
Gu Mirae was the first to greet me. Her face held an inexplicable fatigue and subtle tension. She offered a small paper cup of instant coffee, eyeing me like a guilty child. The number above her head hadn't changed. She was married but hadn't slept with Ra Seung-gun.
The sweet, cheap scent of the instant coffee wafted from Gu Mirae's cup. Her small hand trembled faintly.
"Thanks, Mirae. Something wrong? You look pale."
At my concerned question, tears welled up in her eyes instantly. Conscious of those around, she shook her head urgently and tugged lightly at my sleeve.
"Deputy... could you... meet me briefly at lunch?"
Her voice was nearly a whisper, but the desperation rang clear. I nodded silently.
Gu Mirae sat at her desk but couldn't focus on work. She bit her nails nervously, jiggled her legs, stared blankly into space. I could guess how tangled her mind was.
Then, a heavy flesh tone blocked my view. Jiggling breasts swayed left and right. It was (real) U Mi-young, the section chief with her cleavage on display.
"Oh my. Deputy, you're in. Must've been busy demon hunting? I was shocked when you revealed your identity."
Her bewitching smile carried a hidden seduction. Pussy juices trailed down her thigh. She was parched the moment she saw me.
"Beautiful and I are planning a celebration party tonight... you'll come, right?"
"Dunno... got plans tonight. An invitation isn't a summons."
"How about tomorrow then?"
"Sure. See you tomorrow."
"You won't be disappointed."
Less than a minute after she left, Section Chief Shin Bo-mi came rushing in panting. The moment she saw me, she threw her arms around my neck and planted a kiss.
"Oh... are Section Chief Shin Bo-mi and Deputy Park Woojin really dating?"
Amid the soft murmurs, Deputy Jin Sun-mi appeared too. Right after the kiss with Section Chief Shin Bo-mi ended, she intercepted and stole my lips. Quiet gasps rose here and there in the office.
"Oh my. What's Deputy Jin doing here? What's your relationship with Deputy Park Woojin?"
"I'm... Deputy Park Woojin's slave. Aren't you one too, Section Chief?"
Fuck! This airhead woman. Amid the shocked gasps around us, I had to make excuses for her.
"Hahaha. Section Chief Shin. Slave of love. That's what she means. Right? Deputy Jin Sun-mi really likes me a lot. Right??"
"Huh??"
Deputy Jin Sun-mi glanced around nervously. I nodded, signaling her to affirm my words. With her innocent smile, she took off her jacket and said,
"I'm... Deputy Park Woojin's cocksleeve slave?"
I had to dry-wash my face.
Murmurs, murmurs. Even at lunch, the gossip surrounding me was growing louder.
Having good hearing is... such a pain. Even after the divorce, even when Han Areum visited... it wasn't this level of attention. Gu Mirae walking beside me started lagging a bit, burdened by all the stares.
I took Gu Mirae to a quiet cafe. We sat in the corner, ordered light salads, and I looked at her.
"What's going on? Doesn't seem like ordinary stuff..."
"Deputy Park... you... you saved me from mana overflow before..."
Her big eyes quivered as tears began to well up.
"Save me... something that's not me is trying to take over my body."
"......"
"That succubus I turned into back then... it feels like it's still hiding inside me. When I fall into a deep sleep, it uses my body... and masturbates. Last night too... when I woke up... a vibrator was shoved inside me..."
"Your mana overflow's starting again. I told you to come to me then..."
"But... I'm a married woman... I feel sorry to my husband... and guilty toward you too..."
Gu Mirae's thinking was more rigid than I thought? It made my chest feel stuffy like I'd eaten sweet potatoes.
"You want to lean on me, right? That's why you're asking for help."
"Yes..."
"How was it back then? Think about when we made love."
"Deputy Park Woojin... you're too popular with women."
"How about leaning on me to catch your breath?"
"Huh??"
Gu Mirae's eyes widened, cheeks flushing pink.
"It's just resting. Catching your breath for a bit. You think we're having an affair?"
Her eyes went wide, busted.
"N-no, not that."
"It's part of the treatment. Why be ashamed of treatment."
I lightly grasped her hand on the table.
"Mirae, you have greed. You want to have me. That's why jealousy arises... why you think it's an affair. Just... think of it as leaning on me to catch your breath. Empty your mind."
Gu Mirae let out a small laugh. Like she'd realized something.
"You're right. I... had greed for you, Deputy Park Woojin. A man I want to have... but can't. I get it now. I want a divorce."
"Divorce is your personal decision; I can't advise on that."
"I'll divorce... just promise me one thing."
"Yeah?"
"I want to be your cocksleeve too. Like Deputy Jin Sun-mi. You're treating her mana overflow too, right? Section Chief U Mi-young too."
Some misunderstanding there. She thought my bold office actions were mana overflow treatments like hers. I got her sudden acceleration a bit. She saw her actions as an affair. The burden of immoral acts led to this conclusion.
"Not joking. I'm... confident. Cocksleeve... treat me rough, it's fine. I can't have sex with anyone but you anyway, Deputy Park Woojin."
"Well... that's true, but."
"Torments will keep coming... and each time, I'll suffer mana overflow turning into a succubus. Better to be your cocksleeve comfortably... then those torments vanish. Just use me like a fleshlight. I'll be satisfied."
With that, Gu Mirae slipped under the table. Even in this secluded corner, inside the cafe. Her sweetly trembling fingers unzipped me. Was Gu Mirae suddenly in heat? No. This was the max courage she could muster. She took my not-yet-ripe glans into her mouth and sucked slurpily. Soon, the swelling glans filled her mouth. She lipped the inserted part and pulled inward under the table.
Slurrrp. Slurp.
Gu Mirae looked up at me as she started sucking my cock. Fucking hot as hell! Stunned by her courage, I shot one load in her mouth, then took her straight to a nearby hotel. And calmed her with a creampie.
On the way back after our bodily conversation, we held hands, walking like lovers.
"Ra Seung-gun will never divorce... but today, I'll muster the courage. I won't live like a doll anymore."
I squeezed her hand tight. Her fresh smile looking up at me. Her resolve was too firm, the nuance in her words raising doubts.
Jejeop. There's a flea fly on Gu Mirae, right?
Of course there is~
Anything happening to Gu Mirae I need to know? Her sudden divorce courage doesn't add up.
Every night, she's abused by Ra Seung-gun. Not sexual... he's hitting her~
"What!?"
I shouted aloud what was meant for Jejeop. Gu Mirae looked startled, wondering if she'd said something wrong.
"I... I'll tell Ra Seung-gun... and definitely divorce."
I stared at Gu Mirae, mouth agape in shock. What... what kind of hell have you been living in?
Even back at the office, I couldn't quell my rage at Ra Seung-gun. Why Gu Mirae's number hadn't increased. Ra Seung-gun treated her not as a sexual object, but an abuse target. Abuse without bruises, without traces. Or maybe her A-rank hunter abilities erased evidence. Gu Mirae was suffering mental and physical abuse from Ra Seung-gun. I knew there were perverts among doctors, but Ra Seung-gun being one...
"Fuck. Ra Seung-gun, you... I can't let you live."
