Chapter 478 – 478. Spooky Water Park
“Yujin-ssi!”
“Huh, yes?”
Was I staring at her butt too blatantly? I was a little careless since there was no one around.
But thankfully, she wasn’t about to scold me.
“There’s a Spider Slime ahead.”
As she said, a Spider Slime was blocking the path with a sticky, web-like substance made of water.
Spider Slimes have bodies similar to regular slimes, but they take the form of a spider.
They’re D-rank monsters, but they’re considered C-rank depending on the environment. And this place, with its abundance of water and narrow spaces, is the perfect environment for them.
“I’ll take care of it. Yujin-ssi, please provide cover.”
“Yes, leave it to me.”
Gong Jiyoung moved forward and extended her fist towards the Spider Slime. Her target was, of course, the core, the weakness of slime-type monsters.
However, the Spider Slime easily dodged her punch. Its reaction speed was surprisingly fast. Gong Jiyoung’s fist hit the web.
Gong Jiyoung frowned as she tried to pull her fist back. The web was apparently quite strong, as it wouldn’t come off easily.
Bang!
Gong Jiyoung eventually used a shockwave to free her fist, then stepped back and looked at me.
“The durability and elasticity of the web are beyond imagination. It seems like you’ll have to step in, Yujin-ssi. A sword will probably cut through the web easier than my fist.”
She could easily eliminate it using her abilities, but we were still in the early stages of the slide. It’s better to use our strength efficiently.
“I’m glad I can be of help. I was moving with you, but I thought you’d handle everything on your own, Jiyoung-ssi.”
“You flatter me. Ah, the Spider Slime’s web is acidic. It would be best to use your sword aura.”
“It’s fine. This guy is quite tough.”
I approached the Spider Slime. It shot dark blue icicles at me. I quickly dodged the attack by turning my body to the side. The icicles embedded themselves in the slide wall.
The Spider Slime moved quickly along its web and attacked me. This time, it shot out not only icicles but also webs.
‘The webs are targeting my legs. Trying to take away my mobility? For a brainless monster, it’s quite cunning.’
I cut through the webs with my sword as I approached, then slashed at the slime’s web. Perhaps because its home was destroyed, it jumped towards me.
‘A split second.’
The Spider Slime’s movements slowed down.
‘Looking closely, I can see the core is in its head.’
A good idea suddenly came to mind. The Spider Slime’s body is a semi-solid, acidic substance. If I burst the core, the liquid would splatter everywhere. That liquid would naturally be acidic.
‘It’s acidic enough to melt a normal person’s body in an instant… but it’s a different story for C-rank hunters and above. I’ll use this guy’s acid and pretend to accidentally melt Gong Jiyoung’s clothes!’
Heh.
An exclamation of admiration echoed in my mind.
What a genius idea.
‘I’ll do it!’
I swung my sword.
The red blade cut precisely, and at that moment, I slightly tilted the blade to the side and cut the web in front of me. In the process, the Spider Slime’s liquid splattered backward.
“……?!”
A surprised Gong Jiyoung raised her arms in defense. The liquid landed on her top and bottom, but her clothes didn’t melt; the liquid just trickled down and washed away in the water.
‘Damn it. It wasn’t ordinary clothing! I should have expected that!’
Gong Jiyoung is a B-rank hunter. And a successful one at that, belonging to the Suwol Guild. It was only natural that she used top-of-the-line equipment.
Chiiiiiik.
“Ah, hot!”
I jumped back. When I killed the Spider Slime, some of the liquid had splattered onto my upper body. I quickly surrounded myself with mana to protect myself, but my skin had already turned red. Fortunately, it wasn’t too dangerous.
I washed the liquid off my body with the flowing water. My clothes weren’t top-of-the-line like Gong Jiyoung’s; they were just mass-produced hunter’s leather armor, so part of my top had melted away.
“……Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. And I’m sorry. I was trying to get rid of the web quickly, and the liquid splashed on you, Jiyoung-ssi… but you seem fine.”
“Ah. Yes. It’s custom-made equipment from Sejin Hunter Shop. It’s not only highly defensive but also very resistant to elemental attacks.”
“Custom equipment? That must have been incredibly expensive. Surely it’s over 30 billion won?”
Custom equipment. It was the dream of all hunters. Equipment made considering the hunter’s abilities and physical characteristics!
The minimum of 30 billion won I mentioned was a lot of money even for C-rank hunters and above, but it wasn’t impossible to gather. The problem was that you had to bring the materials to get custom equipment made. The materials for custom equipment were mostly from boss monsters, and their prices were never cheap. Materials from an A-rank boss monster could easily cost at least 100 billion won.
“Well, the guild provided this… so I don’t know the exact price.”
“…Oh.”
The generous support of a large guild. It was something only the Suwol Guild could do.
A regular guild providing custom equipment? That was a pipe dream.
“Yujin-ssi… you could join our guild if you wanted, couldn’t you? You’re renowned as one of the geniuses in Korea, and you even have a personal connection with Han Ah-young-ssi… Why don’t you join the Suwol Guild?”
“My personality doesn’t really fit with guild life. …I might join a guild someday, but I think it’d be better to join after I’ve become a bit stronger.”
“Ah. You’re still a university student, right? It’s a good strategy to increase your value.”
“There’s another Spider Slime ahead. I’ll take the lead and deal with it.”
If I couldn’t take her clothes off, I’d rather take mine off.
I deliberately moved forward while getting hit by the Spider Slime’s liquid. My equipment, worth several million won, melted, but it wasn’t a big deal.
‘I need to avoid my pants pocket. My smartphone is in there.’
Soon, I was in a state where it looked like I was only wearing my underwear. Well, I was wearing square swim trunks instead of underwear.
I felt a gaze from behind, staring intently at me. Gong Jiyoung was looking at my body with a strange heat in her eyes. I desperately pretended not to notice her gaze.
‘She probably felt my gaze when I was staring earlier, right? Gong Jiyoung is definitely a passionate woman.’
My instincts, born from experience, were telling me. That woman was sexually open, and if given the chance, she’d jump me right away.
“Yujin-ssi, your muscles are very well-developed.”
“…Huh? If you’re a hunter who engages in close combat, it’s natural for your muscles to be developed. There’s nothing special about it.”
“No. The muscles that develop are different for each hunter. It’s natural since everyone has a different fighting style. You’re clearly a swordsman, but your other muscles are perfectly balanced. I’ve never seen a body as outstanding as yours. It’s not easy to maintain perfect muscle balance while being a swordsman… You must have put in a lot of effort.”
“…Haha. Thank you for noticing.”
To be honest, I don’t put in much effort. I do basic exercises and training, but I haven’t been focusing on balancing my muscles.
‘It must be the influence of the Play Life app.’
The important thing here isn’t my body. The important thing is that Gong Jiyoung appraised my body. In other words, I can also make excuses as a martial artist and legally appraise her body!
I naturally scanned Gong Jiyoung’s body. Even after looking again, she had an outstanding figure. C-cup breasts and a lifted hip. Thicker and shapelier thighs than the average person.
“…Ah, I’m sorry. I was staring at your body too openly.”
“It’s okay. If you think about it, I was the one who looked at your body and made an assessment first. …What do you think of my body, Yujin-ssi?”
Of course, I want to pin you down and ravage you right now, you’re so damn hot!
But I couldn’t say that.
“……I don’t have a good eye for that kind of thing. I don’t really know.”
“Is it because it’s covered by my clothes?”
She lifted her top. Her firm, tanned abs were revealed. Her top kept going up. I could see her black bra, soaked with water.
“Ah! This isn’t the time for this.”
Gong Jiyoung lowered her top again. I felt a sense of disappointment, but I pretended to be indifferent.
‘This bitch… she’s definitely trying to seduce me. If that’s the case, I can’t just stand still.’
I pretended to be balancing myself and leaned against the slide wall, turning my body to emphasize my crotch towards her. Even though I wasn’t erect, my thick dick was visible. I didn’t miss the moment her gaze briefly moved to my crotch.
“……We’ve wasted time. Let’s move quickly. The hunters are waiting outside.”
“Yes.”
The monsters appearing had changed. Watermen were lying in wait and then jumped out.
“I’ll take the lead from here.”
Gong Jiyoung stepped forward. It was a welcome development. If I was behind her, I could freely admire her backside.
Gong Jiyoung advanced without hesitation. When she swung her fist, when she dodged an attack, when she kicked. Her movements were flawless. It was a pleasure to watch the various movements of her hips and thighs.
While going up the water slide, we came to a wide open space.
It was like a pot. The ceiling was open, and the surroundings were blocked by a circular wall.
It was a place where you spin around while going down the water slide before going down.
“We’re almost 70% there. Let’s take a short break here.”
Gong Jiyoung pointed to one side. There was a flat spot that was good for sitting and resting.
“Yes. I was tired, so that’s good.”
We sat side by side on the floor. Water was rising from below and going up, but it wasn’t strong enough to do anything to us.
“The swordsmanship you use, Yujin-ssi… is it Yeongcheon Style? I’ve heard about it a lot since I was young.”
“Yes. People who are familiar with martial arts recognize it easily. But I don’t have much knowledge…”
“I learned the Hoshim Fist, a family martial art. Isn’t it strange to use a fist art in this day and age?”
“Not at all. Whether it’s swordsmanship or fist art, it depends on how you use it.”
We talked about martial arts. As the conversation went on, the atmosphere between us became quite relaxed. Gong Jiyoung wasn’t as rigid as I had thought.
“…But Yujin-ssi. What’s your relationship with Ah-young-ssi?”
I had expected this question, so I wasn’t flustered.
“I got to know her through Harin-sunbae, and we became close. We’re friends.”
“…Friends? I saw you and Ah-young-ssi having sex in an alley a few hours ago. Do friends have sex?”
Gong Jiyoung asked with a serious expression. The surrounding temperature dropped instantly. But I remained calm.
“There’s no law that says friends can’t have sex. It’s a bit promiscuous, but if two people are compatible, they can have sex even if they’re not lovers. Besides, Ah-young-noona and I are both single. It’s not like we’re cheating on anyone.”
Even if she had a boyfriend, I would have used any means necessary to take her.
“……Ah-young-ssi is my savior. She saved my life in a dungeon three years ago. Since then, I’ve… admired Ah-young-ssi. ……Or maybe it’s jealousy.”
“I see. But why are you telling me this…? If you’re thinking of proposing some kind of conspiracy to betray Ah-young-noona, you’ve come to the wrong person.”
“It’s not like that. If Ah-young-ssi is your friend… I want to be your friend too.”
“Ah, I see. Of course, we can be friends. We can definitely be friends.”
My hand grabbed hers. She didn’t pull her hand away.
Our eyes met.
Gong Jiyoung’s eyes were burning with lust. It was clear. She was horny right now.
My hand became bolder. I lifted her clothes and touched her tanned abs. I could clearly feel her hard six-pack.
“……We need to finish this quickly. We can’t stay here.”
“Like you did with Ah-young-noona in the alley?”
“Yes. Like that time.”
She rushed into my arms and kissed me. Her hands caressed my muscles. My hands pulled down her pants and her wet panties to her thighs.
Her pussy was smooth and hairless, and unlike her tanned skin, there was a white tan line in the shape of a bikini swimsuit.
