Geum Tae-yang Grabs Kim Min-jung's Ass in Front of Park Do-chul [Mysterious Quest] [1]

"1,000 points???? That many came in?????"

After finishing the Park Do-chul NTR, Geum Tae-yang sat down with Park A-young to tally ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠the results. The Growth Motivation points A-young had gained came to a full 1,000.

"When Dad first flipped his lid, 500 came in."

"But it didn't stop there. The second you grabbed Mom's ass, another 500 poured in."

Park A-young answered while checking the history log on her Status Window. To push into downtown Hanseong Metropolitan City the way they planned, raising A-young's level was the top priority. She had analyzed it herself and decided the biggest warehouse of catharsis available to her was her father, Park Do-chul. And she had been right. During the video call Park Do-chul had flown into two massive rages, and each one had handed her 500 points.

"For real??? So when I grabbed the ajumma's ass, you got points too? Honestly I didn't calculate that at all when I did it..."

"It was just... Min-jung ajumma looking all tense was way too cute..."

Scratch...! Scratch...! Scratch...!

Hearing A-young's report, Geum Tae-yang wore a look of genuine surprise and scratched his head. From everything he had experienced so far while racking up Growth Points, the pattern was usually the same: a big payout early on, then the threshold rose and the points started shrinking. Every Growth Point mechanism worked that way except for Special Quests. So once Tae-yang realized he had already driven Park Do-chul into a towering rage, he figured he had hit the target and relaxed, focusing on satisfying his own selfish desires instead.

Felt damn good, that's for sure... Not because I was doing some NTR thing, but because it felt like I was showing off my alpha female Min-jung ajumma. The satisfaction was huge...

His newest fetish: flaunting how tight he and Kim Min-jung were in front of other people. So he had watched for the perfect opening. While he and A-young worked hard to NTR Park Do-chul, Min-jung had been bustling around the room looking after them. Tae-yang had kept his eyes locked on her the whole time. Then the golden moment arrived—an angle where, from Park Do-chul's viewpoint on the phone screen, Min-jung's ass was perfectly framed. The second that angle lined up, Tae-yang shouted the "my woman" line and seized that lush, full ass in both hands.

"Think about it. Even that time you and Mom had sex in the living room—I didn't have to be directly involved. As long as my attention is locked on someone and something I want or would want happens to them, I react. Looking at it that way, grabbing Mom's ass was easily worth 500 points. Even I jumped. That was some next-level crazy shit. Dopamine shot up like a fountain."

Shake...! Shake...! Shake...!

Hearing Tae-yang's honest confession, Park A-young shook her head like she could not believe it. This was exactly the lovey-dovey family atmosphere she had wanted. But this man Geum Tae-yang had no concept of moderation. He was a male who flaunted the women he loved to an insane degree.

"Anyway, with 1,000 points stacked up, you can jump straight to D-rank! And you'll still have roughly 400 left over after that."

Embarrassed by A-young's open disbelief, Tae-yang hurriedly changed the subject. From what he remembered, when Growth Motivation kicked in and a big chunk of points arrived, it was usually around 300. Working from that baseline, he had estimated that even on a high ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠roll the Park Do-chul NTR project would net them maybe 500 points total. That was why he had been fretting over where to farm A-young's remaining points. Yet in a single day they had already secured enough to hit the next level—their immediate goal.

"Okay. Then I'll apply the points."

Press!

Listening to Tae-yang's banter, Park A-young pressed the Apply Unapplied Points button at the bottom of her Status Window.

Her Status Window immediately displayed the promotion prompt.

"Obviously promote."

Press!

A-young immediately hit the 【Level Apply】 button at the top of the window.

"Promotion complete!"

Right before A-young's eyes, her Status Window updated to show her overall level now at D-rank.

"Oh my~ Look how amazing our baby girl is~ Our daughter is so pretty and has such a great body that she looks good in anything, you know~?"

In the bunker's living room, the happy voice of the loving woman Kim Min-jung rang out. The source of her happy-virus energy was her daughter, Park A-young.

"Looks good? I don't really know. Isn't it too prim and proper? Maybe it's because I'm an alchemy-type mage, but this is the style it came out as..."

Flutter! Flutter!

The reason Min-jung kept pouring out admiration was that her daughter was wearing new clothes. More accurately, it was less "clothes" and more of a suit. It was the defensive suit A-young had created with the special skill she gained upon reaching D-rank: Self-Enhancement Alchemy.

A-young looked herself over in the suit with an awkward expression, and as if to mirror that feeling, the small cape-sized shawl on her shoulders kept fluttering.

"Why~ I think it suits you perfectly~ When you were little you used to wear clothes like this all the time. You loved things that fluttered!"

Flutter! Flutter! Flutter!

"Cut it out... I'm gonna kill you for real..."

Even with the air conditioner running, there was no indoor breeze strong enough to make a shawl flutter. The culprit making the shawl flap was Geum Tae-yang standing behind A-young. He wore a face full of mischief as he kept making her shawl flutter. A-young ground her molars and growled at the clown of a man.

"How's the durability, Tae-yang? Did you test it with A-young?"

"Yes! It's more than enough, ajumma. Looking just at durability, it might even be better. The fact that it got named 'protective gear' says a lot."

"Oh my...! What a relief, sweetie~!"

"Hmm... Honestly I never told you or Mom, but I was kind of reluctant to go outside in regular combat clothes. They were sneakily uncomfortable."

After heaping praise on her daughter, Kim Min-jung—true to her motherly nature—also carefully checked the life-protecting function of the gear. In truth A-young could have made combat or protective gear earlier. But doing so would have burned precious alchemy mana. With so many uses for that mana and so many experiments still needed, spending it just to protect her own body had not felt worthwhile. Now, however, a skill had appeared that solved the problem completely: a personal-protection alchemy exclusive to the Engineer Master class, drawing on a separate mana pool independent of regular alchemy mana.

"I've still been around a lot, you know. There are still plenty of cars parked nearby that look intact."

Geum Tae-yang, Kim Min-jung, and Park A-young—all three dressed in their respective suits—sat on the sofa and began the meeting. On the table in front of them lay a map the size of an A4 sheet, printed from the main computer by A-young, covering the nearby area.

"In a way, the fact that I started roaming early might have helped. Word got around somehow, so other people didn't wander around much. That's why even now, compared to the places I've already checked, a lot of stuff is still in pretty good shape."

Today Tae-yang was heading outside. Not alone—this was an expedition with both Kim Min-jung and Park A-young. That was why he was explaining everything so carefully and in such detail to the two women.

"Hmm... I hope there really are intact cars like you say. I've tried a few times, but my alchemy magic doesn't take well to objects that are heavily damaged. And for something as complex as a car, I bet those conditions get even stricter."

The reason A-young was coming along as well as Min-jung was to secure a usable vehicle. Now that she had risen to D-rank, her mana was plentiful and her alchemy magic had jumped an entire tier. She intended to use that power to create a bulletproof vehicle loaded with every enhancement she could manage. Modifications themselves were possible as long as the base vehicle was not critically flawed. Still, Tae-yang's side planned to be quite selective about which vehicle they chose. The core reason they had decided they needed a vehicle at all was the children at Jo Yu-mi's Hope Shelter camp. They would ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠build a special vehicle large enough to carry the kids safely and guarantee their protection.

"Baby girl, you have to stay right next to Mommy the whole time, okay? I'll protect you no matter what."

"Aigoo, I know, Mom... I've already lost count of how many times you've said that just since we left the bunker..."

"Still, ajumma's a lot better now, A-young. She's been going back and forth with me so much she's gotten used to it. Before, she would've been poking and prodding you all over even now, checking your condition."

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

At last the three of them reached the gate, ready to step outside the bunker for the first time. Min-jung was still fretting over her daughter right up to the last second. Meanwhile Tae-yang, freed from Min-jung's nagging thanks to A-young, wore a full, blooming smile.

—Whoooooosh...!!!

"Looks like the free-for-all among the lawless factions Yu-mi mentioned is affecting Do Min-chul's side too. I've been watching steadily for about a week, and there aren't as many traces as before. For us, that could be an opportunity."

Grip!

Then the gate opened. Up until the moment they reached the gate, Tae-yang had been full of playful energy. The instant the gate ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠began to open, however, he tightly clenched the projected steel pipe in his hand. This was the first official outing of the bunker trio into the outside world. And right before the eyes of Geum Tae-yang, who had steeled himself with no small amount of resolve—

—an ominous Special Quest was added.
