"This is a bit unexpected."
"Why? Did you think we'd jump straight into sex the moment I arrived?"
"To be honest, yeah. You were so insistent about me keeping my promise, your eyes practically on fire."
I nodded firmly, and
Riyo sis glanced my way before sensually twirling her chopsticks.
Sis was dressed in lighter Japanese attire than usual. Whether it was a kimono, yukata, or something else, I had no idea.
"Thanks to you, our guild's reputation has shot up. It's made all our years of hard work feel kinda pointless. So this is my way of treating you. A delicious dinner."
"It's tasty and all... but for how grand you made it sound, it feels kinda modest?"
The venue was at least impressive.
With the sliding door open, sitting on tatami mats let a cool breeze flow inside.
The sky was dyed red, and the Japanese-style garden, bathed in that glow, gave off an exotic vibe.
In front of me, Miho, and Lime were small personal tables.
They were laden with sushi and other Japanese dishes.
It seemed like some invited chef had prepared and brought them over, but was this really the quality of a special dinner prepared just for me? It made me tilt my head.
"That's because you have no eye for this stuff."
"Huh?"
"Do you know how rare these ingredients are?"
At that moment, Lime, sitting to my right, let out a big gasp.
"Master! This isn't just any sushi!"
Lime popped another piece into her mouth, savoring it slowly before speaking.
"A fish with this flavor and this much yang energy... Millennium Carp? Nah, not quite a full millennium. But it's close. Wow! I've never had it as sushi before!"
"Millennium Carp? Sounds familiar..."
Lime was already munching on another piece.
I wanted more details, but her mouth was full, so she couldn't talk.
"I'll explain instead."
Miho spoke up then.
Even without her Taming Choker, Miho was obediently following my every command.
And proactively helping me like this.
"Millennium Carp refers to a carp that's lived for a thousand years, accumulating yang energy. It's a spirit beast said to form an inner core after ten thousand years. Popular with hunters who cultivate qi in their dantian. Especially those who use fire-attribute skills."
"Oh, like those spirit beasts from wuxia novels?"
"Yes. Similar to things like Human-Faced Ginseng cores, Millennium Polygonum, or Doll Snow Lotus."
"Those actually exist...?"
Lime jumped in on my question.
"They do inside. In sinkholes, that is! Especially in Japan, there are a lot where time is badly warped. Places where one year outside means a hundred inside. Spirit beasts occasionally emerge from those."
"What... it's not like some Time Chamber or Mind Room..."
Anyway, if it's good for the body, no reason to refuse. I shoved a piece into my mouth.
The salty soy sauce blended perfectly with the seasoned rice, the sharp wasabi stung my nose, and the chewy fresh fish texture all mixed together.
Honestly, it wasn't shockingly delicious.
Just felt like really fresh sushi.
"All these dishes are made from sinkhole ingredients. A delicacy for the rich."
"That expensive?"
"Probably around ten million won per piece of sushi."
"..."
Whoa, did I just chew and swallow ten million won?
Ten pieces is a hundred million?
One piece covers two months of my study room part-timer's salary with change?
"Sis, is our guild loaded?"
"It will be from now on. Our lucky charm's gonna bring in the big bucks."
"You don't mean me, do you?"
"Precisely you and Lime."
Maybe in a good mood, Riyo sis's clothes were slipping a bit.
"Lime's performance in the sparring was a huge help. It'll draw more corporate sponsors to our guild. Expect a flood of named requests too. And those doubting us will shut up on the surface at least."
"Sponsors and named requests I get... but 'on the surface'?"
"Simple story. Our guild was barely scraping top ten at best. Then we start rounding up those infamous Amazones villains. S-rank level ones, in super short time. Who'd believe that normally?"
True enough.
Right before the sparring started, people were whispering about it being staged.
"But we showed it this time. Lime toying with multiple hunters like kids. Especially that vampire. Lime turning into her and fighting Han Nabi Hunter was key. That vampire's one of the few Amazones whose appearance is well-known."
"That vampire? Isn't she holed up in a sinkhole playing queen? Sounds hard to meet."
"She wasn't always queen. Started more like a night mosquito."
"Mosquito?"
"An infamous one. Sucked blood from male hunters for centuries, building her forces. Men bitten by her can't resist her words, like hypnosis. They'll attack allies without hesitation on her command."
Makes sense why she's infamous.
Teammates you've synced with turning enemy instantly? Nightmare scenario.
Worse, she'd only release after sucking more blood, so killing or restraining were the only options.
Beating a stronger villain while suppressing turned allies? No way that's easy.
"Not just that. She had weird sexual tastes, so she rarely killed female hunters."
"Weird tastes? How weird...?"
"Loved stealing other women's men. Wouldn't kill the woman—just fuck her man right in front of her. Squeezing out his semen while lovers, spouses, families watched."
"Ugh... NTR mosquito fetish?"
"Exactly. Even after, she'd savor the woman's defeated expression while crippling her for battle. Pure evil."
No wonder Han Nabi was radiating killing intent...
"Sis. This... my lower belly's getting hot... Is this normal? No side effects, right?"
"It's full of yang energy. Which is basically male essence or libido."
"..."
"Worth the big bucks."
Riyo sis grinned.
Seems this meal wasn't just for me—but for her too, planning to ride me tonight.
"Um... Sis?"
"Stay still."
The moment we entered the bedroom, sis stripped.
And I followed suit.
Thanks to the hearty Millennium Carp, my dick had grown past 18cm into 20cm territory. Turns out the sushi didn't just boost yang energy—it actually increased thickness and length too.
But a problem arose.
Just as I lunged for Riyo sis in front of me, plant vines burst from everywhere in the room, binding me in seconds.
Rose stems squeezing my arms and legs.
Thorny green plant vines...
Fine if it was pink flesh wrapping my dick, but...
"Today, you promised I'd do as I please, right?"
"Well, yeah, but... what exactly are you planning?"
The vines hoisted me up and carried me to the mattress in the corner.
The room, once filled only with wood scent, now carried a faint rose fragrance.
As the rose stems multiplied, hundreds, thousands of white rose blooms unfurled between them.
"You're right—our guild's status rose thanks to you. We'll grow into a mega-guild that comes to mind first when people think of Korea."
"..."
"But your lust and confidence are piercing the heavens now. You're teetering on the edge. Between light and dark. Hunter and villain. So I'll teach you this: some things you can't have, even if you want them. And there's at least one person who'll stand in your way if you stray down the wrong path."
Riyo sis crawled between my legs, spouting cryptic nonsense.
Honestly, it barely registered.
I hadn't even ingested Miho's fluids yet, but I couldn't tear my eyes from Riyo sis's body. I wanted to slam this dick inside her and cum. Spew out the hot buildup inside me.
When her pale white hand touched my dick,
Lime pulled out her smartphone and said,
"Got it! I'll film right away! I brought extra power banks today!"
I hadn't said a word, but she moved like I'd commanded her.
Probably seeing the illusion Riyo sis was showing.
In that illusion, my doppelganger had given the order, and she was obeying it.
