Chapter 48
Chapter 48
The lingering aphrodisiac gas, Asmodeus’s magic, and my overheated blood—
all combined into something… extremely indecent.
My “second sword” stood upright, as if it might tear through my clothes at any moment.
Even I thought the size was abnormal—
so how would a virgin Succubus Queen react?
“…S-stay back!”
Even Asmodeus, unfamiliar with such a sight, recoiled in fear.
She kept more distance than when I had aimed for her neck.
“Are you afraid of me?”
“D-don’t come closer!”
Ignoring her warning, I stepped forward.
With each step—
it moved.
Slightly.
That alone made her panic.
It was like a holy sword meant to purge evil.
“Put that thing away!”
“You’re the one who made it like this.”
“I didn’t mean to make it that big!”
“Too late.”
I originally intended to use this opening to strike her down—
but seeing her afraid stirred something else.
A strange urge.
I wanted to tease her more.
Like a mischievous child, I advanced again—
until—
“Wait—!”
She swung her scythe—
toward it.
“…What?!”
Now I panicked.
That was important.
Very important.
I shut my eyes—
ready for the worst—
Clang!
But instead of flesh—
it sounded like metal striking stone.
“…Huh?”
I opened my eyes.
The blade—
stopped.
It hadn’t cut through.
“What—why isn’t it cutting?!”
“…It seems to be indestructible.”
The orc spoke calmly.
“Indestructible…?”
“Yes. Hard as diamond.”
“But I never trained anything like that!”
“It seems that area evolved on its own.”
“…Only that part?”
I tested my face.
Soft. Normal.
So—
only one part had changed.
‘…Why just that?’
[Magnificent…♡ To rival even me in hardness—truly a perfect match!]
‘Please stop.’
I had read countless fantasy novels—
but this?
This was new.
Completely absurd.
Even Bern wouldn’t have wanted this kind of “power.”
“This is insane! That place shouldn’t be indestructible!”
“You made it.”
“Don’t twist it like that!”
The orc added fuel to the fire.
“As expected of the Queen! Even as a virgin, you secretly desired such things—!”
“Shut up!”
She kept striking—
again and again—
but nothing happened.
No damage.
No pain.
Just… warmth.
At this point—
it felt less like diamond—
more like mythril or orichalcum.
“…This isn’t what I signed up for.”
“Grr…! Enough! Get out of my dungeon!”
She slammed her scythe into the ground.
A massive magic circle appeared—
glowing.
I prepared to stop her—
but—
the orc grabbed me.
“It’s fine. Just teleportation.”
“…Really?”
“I don’t lie.”
Then—
pressure.
Overwhelming.
I couldn’t move.
He wasn’t just a pervert—
he was strong.
Very strong.
“Please wait.”
Light filled the room.
Vision faded—
then—
I was outside.
“…Back already?”
“Bern!”
A familiar voice—
then impact.
“Rene?!”
A white dragon tackled me—
clearly worried.
She had been searching the entire forest.
Leaves stuck between her scales proved it.
“I was so worried! You didn’t come back for hours!”
“Sorry…”
She trembled—
until I held her—
calmed her.
Only after several minutes—
did she settle.
“Where were you?”
“That’s… hard to explain.”
Charlotte stepped out—
and explained everything instead.
Much better than I could.
“…I didn’t know something like that happened…”
“It’s fine. We’re safe.”
“Yeah.”
We were lucky.
If it had been a different dungeon—
things could’ve been worse.
Asmodeus being… herself—
actually saved us.
“Buhit! Welcome back!”
The orc returned.
Walking casually.
Now—
we couldn’t underestimate him.
We drew our weapons.
“Explain.”
“I just dislike fighting.”
“…That’s your reason?”
“Yes. Watching underwear is far more efficient.”
“…You’re serious.”
“Of course!”
Still suspicious—
until—
“Then I’ll offer something.”
“A treasure?”
“Only 100 exist in the world!”
…That didn’t sound rare.
But he insisted.
Then—
he showed it.
A white skull necklace.
“From the rising star—Hades! Given only to top supporters!”
“…You’ve got to be kidding.”
[The world is doomed.]
All doubts vanished.
This guy—
was genuine.
A complete lunatic.
Meanwhile—
at the academy—
a pink-haired girl raged.
“…That stupid orb girl! What’s so great about her?!”
Sherin stabbed her lunch angrily.
Students avoided her.
The reason was simple.
Kang Junhyuk—
was obsessed with Hades.
Ignoring her.
“…Even that ugly skull necklace—he showed it off like treasure!”
She had given everything to him—
and now—
he was distracted.
Naturally—
she snapped.
“What’s so special about her anyway?! I’m better—!”
Then—
“…Huh?”
Her expression froze.
She touched her chest.
Again.
And again.
“…Where did it go?”
Gone.
Completely.
Flat.
“MY CHEST?! WHERE DID IT GO?!”
She screamed.
Students backed away.
But that wasn’t the real reason.
The truth was—
her pink hair—
once beautiful—
now reflected sunlight so brightly—
it hurt to look at.
She didn’t realize it yet—
but—
she was becoming—
literally—
a shining bald head.
