The Half (3)
“Should I just increase the number of regressors?” “It’s the most efficient method, yes.”
Yu Dahui asked calmly. What on earth was she thinking? Even if her netorase tendency had blossomed, I still didn’t feel entirely comfortable with it. It’s the golden rule of revenge. Thinking the opposite, the answer came easily. *If Yu Dahui shares love with another man?* A strange, bubbling emotion surged inside me. I would never, ever allow it. Selfish or hypocritical—I didn’t care. I just wanted to own Yu Dahui. That was my true desire.
“If there are more regressors, the risk in conquering them decreases. They become closer than guild bonds, so you can genuinely help each other.”
Players each secretly hid one hidden card. Even in a guild that acted like family, you’d still keep that one trump card for saving your life. But a group made entirely of regressors didn’t need it. If they fought and sabotaged each other, it was clear—clear or regress. No one wasted time on meaningless actions like that.
*“I’ll have to choose my ending.”* That part felt truly sad.
“…I have to increase the regressors, but how? By Jinwu’s Submission Oath… Is there anyone who would seriously accept that?”
“No.”
Yu Dahui’s will shattered the moment I saw it. I broke her resolve in one stroke. Who would accept the Submission Oath, the ultimate unfair trade?
“Elena unnie already accepted the Submission Oath, didn’t she?”
“That’s because Elena…”
I glanced sideways at Elena. She was smiling brightly, then casually touched her own ear. The way she stole glances at me carried a clear meaning.
*Mind-reading mode on.*
*“Regress… they were regressing this whole time. Oh, good.”*
*“Trash. Get in the bedroom tonight. After this talk is over, sneak into the bedroom when it’s late. Got it?”*
*“Why pretend not to know? I see you touching your ear. What’s the deal? You’re not reacting much?”*
*“Ah, I never explained the meaning. Tsk tsk tsk. You’re sitting there all dumb like you can’t understand.”*
*Mind-reading mode off.*
Now mind-reading didn’t give me headaches. It used little life force. I had already read Elena’s inner thoughts. That gesture was the signal—*“Come to the bedroom tonight.”*
I didn’t understand why an elf touching her own ears led to the bedroom, but I roughly understood. It was a meaning-filled ear, so touching it meant she wanted me to impregnate her. That translated directly to *“Come to the bedroom.”*
*“Even though I raped Elysha, you’re not bothered at all.”* Life was like that. She’d be upset about losing her virginity, but she was a lesbian to begin with. Better to break her with a real cock than a dildo.
“Fair enough, Elena unnie is a special case.”
“Normally I’d never accept the Submission Oath. There’s nothing good about it.”
“But we have to. More regressors means faster progress.”
“…We have to?”
Yu Dahui actively agreed. It felt like she was urging me to force the Submission Oath on her.
“Yeah.”
“Then you want me to actively fuck them all?”
“Yeah?”
Yu Dahui’s hand shot forward. Just like when a shark clamped onto a victim’s wrist, her palm pressed against my crotch.
“Are you crazy? Just because I keep watching you, you only think about sex?”
“Eh…?”
“Why does the Submission Oath need sex? Can’t we find another way that’s just as effective without it?”
*Crunch—*
This feeling… It wasn’t so intense it felt like it would snap, nor was it so weak it barely registered. This was the raw expression of Yu Dahui’s obsession.
“I’ve been feeling this a lot lately. Jinwu, you seem to deliberately pick lines that make me horny.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
Her touch turned seductive. She stroked my cock, then released it, repeating the motion.
“As expected, it grows so fast.”
Yu Dahui squeezed the bulge in my pants and murmured, “I think I’ll have to take care of you tonight instead of Elena unnie.”
“…?”
Her voice was quietly dangerous, so no answer came out. Even with Elena sitting right in front of me, Yu Dahui slowly stroked my body.
“No… You’re mine, so why does this matter? I’m the first one, right?”
Yu Dahui shot Elena a glance. Judging by her eyes, she already roughly understood the meaning of the signal they had exchanged earlier.
Elena grinned. “I’ll let you have your way tonight, Dahui-ssi.”
“…?”
As she said it, Elena rose from her seat. Something—something was off.
“Have a wonderful night, Dahui-ssi.”
She left with the perfect, polite posture she had shown at no other time.
I stared blankly at Elena’s retreating back. Beside me, Yu Dahui’s hands trembled.
“Stop filming… You always come out like this…”
Yu Dahui’s teeth were grinding. One wrong word and the atmosphere could crack bones.
I obediently offered my cock and sat quietly.
“Hand.”
Yu Dahui extended her palm. What did this mean? I didn’t even have time to think. I instinctively raised my hand.
“Jinwoo-ya.”
“Huh?”
Yu Dahui twisted my hand, fingers wriggling. She had stopped the lewd stroking and now toyed with me.
“You said you’d do anything for me, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Really?”
Yu Dahui looked straight into my eyes. I answered firmly.
“Yeah. I’ll do anything.”
I could even die for her. It wasn’t a regressor’s joke. To me, Yu Dahui was precious. She had survived the darkest past, every single day…
Yu Dahui smiled brightly. Even without using the stealth blessing, she had sensed my sincerity.
“Then, this collar?”
Yu Dahui rummaged through her inventory and pulled something out.
“A dog collar…?”
“Yeah.”
Yu Dahui begged with sparkling eyes.
“Tonight you’ll be my only puppy. You can do that, right?”
I received the dog collar in my hand. I asked her once more, just to confirm.
“Really?”
“Yeah, really.”
I could do anything—collar or roleplay—as long as it wasn’t making me eat shit or turning me into a netorase masochist. *“This S side is much better than that kind of taste, though…”*
Yu Dahui finally said the word *puppy* seriously. She would stuff it in my mouth and make me do puppy things.
*“Normally it would be with other men…”*
It was a form of roleplay. In the novel, Yu Dahui usually made the possessive man *walk* his puppy. Whether the man was masochist or sadist, she first made him kneel in front of her. That was her nature.
Even if her netorase had awakened and she was starting to show masochist traits, she couldn’t change her core.
*“No choice.”*
I’d receive this time. Next time I’d be the one pounding.
*Click—*
I obediently put on the collar Yu Dahui had offered.
* * *
“Really filming?”
“Yeah.”
“No?”
“It’s not that I can’t… Just who are you showing this to?”
“For my collection, just my collection.”
Jinwu’s eyes narrowed in the video. *“For my collection?”* That didn’t make sense coming from a regressor. Someone clearly wanted to show it to someone else. Yu Dahui had simply omitted that part.
I decided to just roll with it. *“She’ll do what she wants anyway.”*
“Dahui-ssi, what is this video…?”
“Last night’s roleplay video with Jinwoo. I filmed it because I wanted to show it to Elena unnie too.”
“Ah…”
I couldn’t believe Yu Dahui would call herself out like this.
Elena watched the video with a blank face. It was slightly different from the usual footage she had recorded. While Elena usually set the phone on a table, Yu Dahui was filming directly, handheld.
It shook a lot at first, but the video only showed Jinwu’s figure.
“Jinwoo-ya, you’re so cute when you’re really trying…”
Yu Dahui’s hand petted the Jinwu in the collar video. A dog-ear headband Jinwu didn’t even remember wearing swung back and forth on its own.
“Are you really making a puppy?”
“I want to have a son who looks just like you.”
“…You can’t.”
“When does the starting point update?”
“Ah…”
*“Would it be better to just clear the dungeon faster?”*
“No, that’s later…”
Jinwu, trying to avoid the crystal, looked embarrassed. A giggle came from Yu Dahui.
*Gulp—*
Elena felt her pussy getting wet. Yu Dahui sipped her coffee, her chest fluttering with a strange satisfaction.
Jinwu, head lowered, looked even cuter on replay.
“The puppy ears suit you. You even bought a tail.”
“Ehh, that’s not real.”
“You said you’d do anything for me.”
“That’s true, but…”
Thanks to Yu Dahui’s stubborn begging, Jinwu had no choice but to nod.
Yu Dahui caught the tiny nod.
“Promise?”
“Yeah. That’s enough.”
The moment Jinwu answered, Yu Dahui smacked her lips. She licked her lips as if she wanted to devour them. Their tongues brushed, then plunged deep into each other’s mouths.
“Hand.”
A thin transparent string stretched out.
After the sticky kiss, Yu Dahui slowly began taming Jinwu. She loved this kind of roleplay.
“Good boy. Kiss.”
*Smack—*
Jinwu followed her orders without a word. He pecked Yu Dahui’s slightly extended lips and pulled away.
Yu Dahui flushed red.
“Open your mouth.”
“……”
“Stick out your tongue.”
Following the command, Jinwu turned his head, saying he couldn’t.
“Tongue.”
Another small lowering of the voice.
I don’t know what he saw, but Jinwu, staring past the crystal, obediently stuck out his tongue.
“Hic…”
Elena shot upright.
“Why are you doing this, Elena unnie?”
Yu Dahui asked bluntly.
Elena couldn’t speak. She was too cute. I wanted to milk her breasts…
“It’s nothing.”
“Really? Ah, good. I was worried for a second if Elena unnie would be disappointed.”
Looking at Yu Dahui’s mischievous smile, Elena felt a strange emotion. *“Ah, so that’s what you’re planning?”*
She had enjoyed a threesome with Isilia before. She wasn’t overly sensitive about harems. But she had no intention of letting Yu Dahui’s reaction slide.
For a healthy harem.
Elena forced herself to ignore her dripping pussy and focused on the video.
*Slurp—Slurp—*
“Haum, haah… Jinwoo-ya…”
Yu Dahui licked Jinwu’s tongue like she was sucking his cock. Jinwu’s hand kept going up and down. His restless movements made Elena’s nipples tingle.
*“Ah… It’s not bad…”*
Watching Jinwu fuck another woman in the video felt far more stimulating than facing it in real life. Being completely excluded from the third-party perspective made my body tingle with envy.
When Yu Dahui finally pulled away and whispered in Jinwu’s ear,
“The puppy must listen.”
“Ya…”
“Stop already?”
“Then I’ll be disappointed…”
“……”
“You’ve been watching me with Elena unnie and Isilia and the others a lot. Can’t you handle this?”
“I’m the sinner… the sinner.”
Yu Dahui licked Jinwu’s cheeks where he had whimpered weakly. She sucked his angry cock with her lips, then grabbed the collar chain and pulled him up.
“Want to go outside?”
Jinwu trembled. The cornered mouse looked at Yu Dahui as if she were a cat.
“It’s night, no one’s around. It’s fine, right?”
“If it’s not fine?”
“Harem or not, from now on I’m not giving permission.”
Yu Dahui showed the silver ring on her left ring finger. It was clearly recorded on the crystal.
Elena subtly glanced at Yu Dahui’s left hand. The left hand was wide open, as if she had been expecting it.
*“You’re too cute, Dahui-ssi…”*
The triumphant look was too adorable.
*Gulp—*
Milk poured out on its own.
