Chapter 114: The Child Who Creates the Flow (2)
"Fuck!!"
Im Jin-ah screamed as she hurled her smartphone.
Though she was only C-rank, her strength was incomparable to that of a normal person. The phone shattered into pieces and embedded itself into the wall.
Han Byeong-su flinched at her destructive outburst, but he quickly regained his composure and picked up his own phone, which he had dropped in surprise.
"What are you so angry about?"
"How can I not be angry?! What are we going to do?! Fuck, I'm totally pussy-fucked because of you!"
How is this my fault?
Byeong-su sneered inwardly as he watched Im Jin-ah shift the blame.
The current mess was entirely her doing.
It was true that using Survival Hero to humiliate Jeong Yeon-woo in front of the public was Byeong-su's plan. However, Im Jin-ah was the one who got caught on camera using his name to ask the PD for special favors.
If she had just stayed still, he would have handled everything, but she ruined it because she couldn't endure a moment of discomfort. Now that public opinion had soured, her past actions were being re-examined, and people had even discovered evidence of fabrication. Even the PD was facing disciplinary action.
This is why low-born scum are...
Byeong-su clicked his tongue mentally but continued to cater to her whims.
"The mindless cattle will forget soon enough anyway. If you issue a public apology and stay low for a while, you can make a comeback in no time."
"Fuck, you want me to apologize? You want me to bow my head to those pussy-ass losers?"
"You can just write an apology letter. You don't have to go in front of the cameras."
"I don't know how to write stuff like that!"
Byeong-su let out a small sigh as he watched Im Jin-ah—who was currently using the name Im Yu-jin—snap at him.
The problem with those who grew up with nothing was that they were so thick-headed.
"The lawyers will write it all for you. I'll talk to my mother's company lawyers."
Once Byeong-su offered his help, Im Jin-ah seemed to calm down a bit.
Their relationship had been like this since high school. Byeong-su provided her with conveniences while manipulating her, and Im Jin-ah lived off him, running wild to her heart's content. In exchange for doing the occasional "favor" he asked for, she got to enjoy money and a glamorous upper-class lifestyle.
And sometimes, they reaped unexpected benefits, like with Jeong Yeon-woo.
"That piece of shit, Jeong Yeon-woo..."
Im Jin-ah ground her teeth as if she wanted to chew him up.
Back then, she had enjoyed riding him, but now he was the person she hated most in the world. Just a few years ago, he was nothing but a pussy-plug who couldn't even meet her eyes and did nothing but tremble. Now, he'd grown quite a bit.
He had the audacity to talk back, and sometimes, he even looked at her as if he pitied her. It wasn't a look of anger or malice, but pure pity.
Me? Pitied by him?
It was a look she couldn't understand, which only made it more infuriating.
"I'm going to kill that bastard Jeong Yeon-woo."
"You're a Hero, so why do you keep talking like a Villain?"
"Fuck, aren't you pissed? That bastard is acting so cocky. I heard he even slept with that bitch Hyun-ah."
"Shit... why bring that up?"
Byeong-su felt a surge of irritation. He had just managed to stabilize his mood, but Im Jin-ah had to poke the wound.
Kim Hyun-ah.
Unlike a delinquent like Im Jin-ah, she was an excellent woman who had grown up in an environment similar to his own. She had a good family, a great education, and a confident, dignified aura that had made Byeong-su fall head over heels for her... but that was all in the past now.
He could understand a one-night stand. He knew all about women's sexual desires, and he assumed Jeong Yeon-woo must have seduced her.
But ever since that night, Kim Hyun-ah only looked for Jeong Yeon-woo. She had become his total fangirl, babbling some nonsense about finally meeting a man who could truly satisfy her. Byeong-su couldn't fathom what had happened to turn the always-dignified, lady-like Kim Hyun-ah into someone like that.
It's all in the past.
Byeong-su tried to calm himself, telling himself that those who stand above others must be able to brush off trivial matters.
However, he could not forgive Jeong Yeon-woo.
"He seems to be enjoying the public's adoration, but I'll have to make him realize that commoners have no real power."
"Do you have a plan?"
"Cheongung Pharmaceutical, H&K, and even Hanseong Group... most of the people who hate Jeong Yeon-woo are high-ranking individuals. The truly terrifying thing is earning the hatred of those who actually move society."
"Count me in. I'm going to crush that bastard."
Byeong-su nodded at Im Jin-ah's words.
Inwardly, however, he was thinking about how this low-class delinquent didn't know her place. But if he told her not to get involved, her foul temper would be too much to handle.
"Just focus on clearing dungeons and wait quietly. Since everyone involved is a big player, these things move slowly and deliberately."
Not that a peasant girl like you would understand.
Byeong-su spoke with an air of leisure, mocking her in his mind.
*
I'm worried because my stats haven't been increasing much lately.
The other party members are growing by leaps and bounds after taking Rahiya's Elixirs, so why am I the only one like this? No matter how much I think about it, this body seems to have zero talent for physical growth.
The only silver lining is that my mana is developing decently, but as someone who used to be a frontline Attacker, being a Mage feels awkward. Still, I can't just sit around complaining about it not being my "style."
Since I'm already acting as a Supporter using guns, everyone sees me as a pure Mage anyway.
But Mages have clear limitations. Magic itself is essentially a downgraded version of Skills; while Mages have great utility, their raw power is lacking. Since the body is weak, if an enemy gets close, there's nothing to do but get the shit beaten out of you.
Even if we maintain a formation in a dungeon, I'd be helpless against a Villain or in an unexpected situation. Even if I commit to the Mage path, I need to balance my abilities.
"What do you think about special training?"
"Huaaaah?!"
When I asked Juna, she turned around with a face that looked like it was melting.
Yeah, I'm not getting a proper answer right now.
Juna, who was on a stationary bike, looked completely dazed, her cute, puppy-like face flushed deep red. Unable to hold herself upright, her large breasts were draped over the handlebars, swaying, while her hips were pushed far back on the saddle.
I thought it might be fun, so I had her get on the cycle while I stayed buried inside her, and it turned out to be more thrilling than I expected. Every time she pedaled, the movement of her leg muscles was transmitted directly to my cock inside her pussy.
The vaginal walls shifted alternately from left to right, stimulating my dick and sending waves of a unique sensation through me.
Slap!
"Keep it up. Ten kilometers to go."
I gave Juna's white buttocks a sharp slap, and her pussy clamped down hard. Even without moving my hips, the vaginal walls rubbed against me on their own as she pedaled, creating intense stimulation.
Juna didn't seem to hate the sensation either; though her upper body was slumped over the handlebars, her legs worked tirelessly to keep the pedals moving.
I leaned over her back and grabbed the breasts that were spilling out over the handlebars.
"Ha, hah, ahhh... hah..."
As I kneaded them instead of the handles, Juna let out pitiful moans and pedaled even harder.
I liked the unique stimulation, but it didn't feel like I'd reach climax this way, so I started moving my hips as well. Thrusting into the vaginal walls that were writhing from both sides, I felt like I was going to blow any second.
"Ngh... I'm going to cum."
"Higyuuuu... In... put it in my mouth... huaaaah!"
Despite trembling uncontrollably, Juna demanded I cum in her mouth, so I pulled my dick out. As I shook it in front of her while she was slumped over the bike, she looked at it with ecstatic eyes and opened her mouth wide.
With her tongue sticking out and her head tilted back, I shook my dick in front of her before pressing the glans against her tongue and ejaculating.
Splurt—! Spurt!
The white fluid erupted forcefully, coating her saliva-slicked tongue.
As if determined not to miss a single drop, Juna swept her tongue over the glans at the very end, then slowly swallowed the semen as if savoring it. Shuddering with every gulp, she finally opened her eyes and looked at me.
"Thank you for the protein today as well."
Mwah.
"You should be thanking me, not the dick."
I shrugged as I watched Juna kiss the glans, offering her gratitude to my member.
As I sat on a bench press, Juna knelt before me and used her tongue to clean my dick thoroughly.
"About the special training you mentioned earlier."
"Yes. Is it possible with my current body?"
"Personally, I don't think it will have a huge effect. Uh... it's a bit awkward to say, but Yeon-woo, your physical stats are..."
"At rock bottom."
Since she hesitated, I finished the sentence for her. Juna nodded while pressing her face against my dick. She buried her nose in my crotch, sniffing deeply, then got excited again and started sucking on it. I grabbed her hair and shoved it deep into her mouth.
"Mmph! Uh-huh-huh-mmph!"
If my body is so bad that even special training won't help, should I just focus entirely on mana and magic to strengthen my buffs?
Enjoying the intense suction, I began to organize my plans.
When I arrived at the clan office, a staff member informed me that I had a visitor.
"Scarlet Portman from Poltsmith is here to see you."
"Did she finish it already? Thank you. I'll head up."
The passionate Scarlet had been working day and night to create guns for Michelle and me. Contrary to our initial expectations, we decided to develop two separate types of firearms.
One was my personal custom gun, designed by Michelle Audrey. The other was a mass-produced pistol with reduced costs, combining Poltsmith's blueprints with Michelle Audrey's advice.
Scarlet's arrival likely meant the prototype for the mass-produced version was ready.
While the development was underway, we at Black Unicorn focused solely on dungeons. Instead of moving up to the next level as soon as we were qualified, we focused on gaining experience against various types of monsters, clearing almost every dungeon available in Korea.
There were some antis who called us cowards for not moving up despite clearing them so easily, but haters will hate no matter what you do, so I didn't care. Everyone in the party is incredibly talented, but if they don't gain experience fighting a wide variety of monsters, they'll just end up as empty shells with high stats.
That was exactly how I was able to easily suppress the demonized Anna, who only had high raw stats. You shouldn't just rush up the dungeon ranks; you have to build experience and proficiency to avoid struggling later.
I took Yoon A-young and Anna, who had arrived before me, to meet Scarlet. Lee Yu-na was always punctual, while Kwon Ye-jin was a heavy sleeper and often ran late. Since Ye-jin always practiced longer to make up for it, I didn't mind the small things as long as everyone did their jobs.
"Am I going to use a gun too?" Anna asked, her eyes sparkling.
When I told the party members that I planned to use guns as auxiliary tools, they were thrilled. According to Kwon Ye-jin, "guns are a girl's best friend."
It was a sentiment I couldn't quite understand, but regardless, we had been practicing infusing mana into bullets. Kwon Ye-jin, who lacked talent in mana, struggled, but the others had managed to successfully imbue bullets with magic, even if it was a bit clumsy.
If they could do it with regular guns, how much easier would it be with the hero-specific guns Scarlet brought?
"It's been a while. Have you been well?"
Scarlet looked bright, suggesting she had produced something worthwhile.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. This is our first hero-specific revolver, the JP-12."
Scarlet proudly presented a box containing a magnificent-looking revolver.
Could you even call this a revolver? For starters, it was massive. It looked like one of those unrealistically large guns used by protagonists in manga. The bullets for the cylinder were almost the size of shotgun shells.
"We developed it primarily to be used as a sub-weapon. After firing, the casings are automatically ejected when the cylinder is opened, but it can also be used with a speed-loader system."
I examined the revolver while listening to Scarlet's explanation. To hold more mana, they had developed special bullets that looked like solid pipes cut into sections, and the cylinder could be swapped out like a magazine.
The mana conductivity was improved, making it easier to imbue the bullets with power. At this level, even Kwon Ye-jin should be able to use it. Even if the pistol was large, it was a manageable size for a Hero.
Yoon A-young and Anna looked it over with interest. The design was sleek and looked incredibly cool.
"It's great. I assume we should do a field test?"
"Yes, that's why I brought it."
Scarlet nodded with a confident smirk.
After gathering the late-arriving Lee Yu-na and Kwon Ye-jin for some practice at the firing range, we headed to a dungeon.
It was time to show these Heroes just how useful a gun could be, even if they weren't Gunslingers.
