## Chapter 137 – Unboxing the Gifts (3)
‘So, is it their turn now…’
Serkov and Verdi’s terrified expressions were visible next to Aurora, who was still passed out with only her face sticking out of the tentacle sofa. I began to stare down at them intently.
“Hiiiieeeek!!”
“Calm down.”
After ravaging Aurora to the point of unconsciousness, their fear seemed to have intensified even further. Unlike Verdi, who was trembling like a shivering puppy, Serkov, though clearly frightened, seemed determined to maintain his composure until the very end, which was impressive.
“Monster. So, you had those bitches capture me?”
His eyes seemed determined not to miss how the situation was unfolding, and he was subtly aware of his surroundings.
“I’m… asking you something…!! Tell me!! What are you planning to do with me, the eldest grandson of the Shutzranova family?”
“Serkov… don’t…!! You saw it too… Kyaaak!!”
“I told you to stay still!! Are you deaf now, monster?”
But considering the situation he was in, it was clear that his behavior wasn’t exactly helpful.
“Sniff… I don’t want to…”
“Tch… damn it… Please be quiet… Hey!! Untie this!! Untie it!!”
What they didn’t know was that I was a monster who only looked stupid on the outside, but was actually capable of thinking.
Amidst all this, a voice from behind drew everyone’s attention.
“Full of energy, aren’t we? Did you sleep well today?”
“Vivian…!! You bitch…!! This wasn’t part of the deal!! I said I’d get help, right? Who would offer help if you treat guests like this?”
Vivian, now fully awake, her hair a little disheveled but generally put together, walked out of the next room.
Serkov’s barrage of curses towards her only brought a chilling smile to Vivian’s face.
“Oh my, I don’t think I ever said I’d treat you like guests, did I? You’re acting quite presumptuously, like you’re entitled to be treated as guests.”
It was a potentially frightening sight, but Serkov merely narrowed his eyes slightly, his spirit unbroken as he glared back at Vivian.
With a light scoff, Vivian approached my tentacle and began to stroke it gently.
In a way, it was an implicit display that, unlike them, who could fall at any moment, she was under my protection.
Since Vivian had brought these guys, she must have had something in mind.
So, I decided to delegate the situation to Vivian for now, moving in sync with her actions and trying to boost her morale.
“Of course, it was about helping each other out. But I haven’t said what kind of help yet, have I?”
“So, this is what you meant? Huh? To be monster fodder?”
“I don’t know what you take me for, but of course, that’s not it either. I told you, I keep my promises.”
“Then why am I still tied up like this? Untie me right now and let’s talk!!”
“Still haven’t grasped the situation, have you?”
As Vivian began to send a cold glare at Serkov’s forced outburst, I quickly thrust my tentacles forward to threaten them, stopping right in front of their faces.
“Hiiiieeeek!!”
Verdi couldn’t even scream, completely terrified, and Serkov also looked quite surprised.
Then, I felt the touch of a hand stroking my tentacle again, and I returned to Vivian’s side, guarding her.
“There’s no need to say it multiple times. I clearly said I’d keep my promise. But before that, I think you need to feel something while looking at this bitch, don’t you?”
Vivian slapped Aurora, causing Aurora’s head to flop to the other side.
“If you resist unnecessarily… you probably won’t see a good end. Untie them. They can’t escape anyway.”
As Vivian whispered, the tree roots binding them retracted, and Serkov and Verdi slowly rose from their seats, rubbing their wrists.
Thus, the power dynamic between Vivian and Serkov was clearly established.
Once their bodies were freed, they retreated together, huddling as far away from the tentacles as possible.
Nevertheless, Vivian, unconcerned, seemed to prioritize what she had in mind, approaching Aurora again and grabbing her by the hair.
“Is it comfortable sleeping? Why don’t you wake up now?”
Aurora, still with only her head sticking out of the tentacle sofa that enveloped her body like a dumpling, let out a painful groan as her hair was pulled, showing signs of regaining consciousness.
But her attitude was markedly different from before…
“Kyaaak!! I… I’m sorry…!! I won’t act up again, please…!! I don’t like this!! I’m going to die…!! Being stirred up with something weird…!! Please get me out…!! Please… Sniff…”
Having been thoroughly educated by the agonizing pleasure, Vivian wore a satisfied smile as she watched Aurora, and the front of the tentacle sofa slowly began to open.
Aurora, as if lacking strength, tried to get up from the sofa but lost her balance and tumbled forward, slamming her face into the floor. She lay there limply, gasping for breath.
“Sniff… Sniff… Ugh… Ugh…”
“Then shall we have a little chat?”
“Sniff… What… chat…”
“It’s about helping each other out. You said you could get drugs, right?”
“Y… Yes, but…”
“From now on, you’ll be going outside. And you’ll be gathering drugs from outside and bringing them to me consistently. Don’t ask questions, don’t have doubts. You just need to bring the drugs.”
“Yes…? Wh… What are you going to use them for…”
“Did my words not sound like words to you?”
“Cough…!! No… It’s…!! I won’t… ask!! I was wrong… Forgive… Sniff!!”
To the question that came back after she had said not to ask questions, Vivian immediately grabbed Aurora, who was lying on the floor, by the hair, lifted her up, and shoved her into the tentacle sofa as if strangling her.
And as the prey entered again, the tentacle sofa began to operate, exploiting Aurora’s instinctively aroused body as she anticipated what would happen next.
“Hieeet!! Hweek!! Nooooot!! I was wrong!! Stop it!!”
The beautiful sensation of the tentacles burrowing in and stirring her insides was just pain she wanted to avoid, and she screamed hysterically. Vivian waited with her arms crossed in front of her.
Soon, after one ‘processing’ was over, Aurora’s body, struggling to escape again, tumbled out of the tentacle sofa that opened once more.
Vivian kicked her desperately crawling body, flipped her over, and stomped on her abdomen. She turned her gaze to Aurora’s vagina, which was leaking the white fluid ejaculated from the tentacles, along with a soft fart.
“You just have to do it, right?”
“Yes…!! I will… So please… stop…”
Satisfied with her answer, Vivian slowly bent down, reached out a hand, and pushed three slender fingers into Aurora’s open, unclosed vagina, stirring the fluid inside with gentle movements.
“Okay… Now we’re talking. But you know what? Do you know this?”
“Ahng, ugh!!”
The slender fingers, gently stirring her vagina as if coaxing her, suddenly poked Aurora’s sensitive G-spot, causing her to startle and arch her back with a moan. She looked at Vivian with a face full of fear.
“Right now, only three fingers fit… But next time, maybe my arm will fit… So… there shouldn’t be a next time…?”
“Ye… Yes…!! I… I absolutely…!!”
“If you’re thinking of betraying me… you better bury those thoughts in the ground right now. No matter where you go, no matter where you hide, I’ll find you. No matter what, no matter what happens. Or, do you want to go in one more time so you don’t have those thoughts…?”
“N… No…!! I’ll never do that!! Please believe me…!!”
As Vivian pointed to the tentacle sofa with her finger, Aurora shook her head in horror. Vivian took her fingers out of her vagina and wiped the hand smeared with the mixture of fluid and vaginal secretions on her hair.
Then, as she tapped the back of Aurora’s head, Aurora, as if relieved of tension, collapsed and fell asleep on the floor.
Watching her, Vivian rose from her seat and turned to Serkov with a smile.
“One is taken care of… Now it’s your turn, isn’t it? But you’re later, right? This is a kind of leniency, you know?”
Vivian, with her hands slightly behind her back, leaned forward slightly, approaching him with a sharp gaze.
Serkov, momentarily flinching at this, seemed to resist even more strongly to dispel his inner fear.
“What the hell!! Just say it already!!”
“Serkov de Shutzranova, the eldest grandson of the Shutzranova family. You… were an only child, weren’t you?”
“Wh… What’s that…!!”
“I’m going to use your name a bit from now on. I saved your family from a crisis, so… this much is a good deal for you, right? So… you’ll have to go back as you are. You have to become an heir who can properly inherit the family, right?”
“What…?”
“I told you, if you go out, cooperate with what I do. Mobilize all the power your family can muster. Of course, I won’t make you do anything unreasonable. But it might be a bit of a hassle for you? That’s the deal. For mutual benefit…”
“Tch… That’s enough with just the Grenot name anyway… So… what’s the benefit I’ll get?”
Serkov glared at Vivian for a moment, clicking his tongue. Vivian replied with an arrogant smile.
“Saving your life in the future…?”
“Bullshit!! You call that mutual benefit? Even that crazy bitch over there has better morals than that!!”
“Does it sound like a joke? I’m going to make this entire royal capital our territory. That’s why I told Aurora to gather drugs. She’s a decent middleman, right? I’ll use that bitch as a figurehead. And although not right now, I plan to eliminate everything that gets in the way in the process…”
“You… Don’t tell me…”
“I like that you’re perceptive. Then, someday, starting from a part of the back alleys, it’ll gradually come into our hands. From the financial power to the manpower, to the underworld powers. Eventually, we’ll inevitably clash with various families that are somewhat involved with the back alleys… But can they really stop us?”
“Are you crazy? There’s a limit to how much you can look down on nobles…!! So… it was the Grenot family’s scheme that you went missing…? You faked your death to plot this scheme?”
“Shut your mouth.”
“Ha!! No matter how great you are!! At best, you’re just a monster and…!!”
“I think you can tell enough from what you’re seeing right now, can’t you? Do you know where this is? What the maximum force is? What we can do? At best, just a monster? What will happen in those mansions with strict security every night? Can you stop us by increasing the security personnel of the Shutzranova family tenfold, a hundredfold?”
In a way, the social gathering might have been just the beginning.
Even though it was a baronial family, the Proden baronial family, one of the strong families that dominated the political world, had collapsed without knowing why, due to their infiltration operation.
Monsters stronger than humans, infiltrating from who knows where.
And even this woman in front of him, who had no idea why, how, or what it was all for.
“I told you before, you’re just a naive kid who doesn’t know anything. It’s not good to be so presumptuous about things you don’t know.”
“……”
Serkov could only admit what he had to admit, seeing her eyes, which seemed to be able to kill a person with just a glance, and her mood seemed to be not good at all.
The fact that he didn’t know the details was already a problem.
The giant worm moving through the ground, and the sight of the beastmen, dyed in pure white turbidity, sleeping as if unconscious in one corner of this underground space.
If there was something important, they wouldn’t have shown it to him yet, so no matter how many situations he prepared for, he couldn’t be sure that he could stop them. That was an undeniable fact.
‘They have asymmetrical power in the place they want, and a background that allows them to use it as they please…’
And they had Arachnella in their hands as of today, and they also had the power to decide his life and death.
“If you go back, do you want to live in fear like that for the rest of your life…? I think it’s okay if you do. And more than anything… what do you think if the Shutzranova family joins hands with this side? Is there any more merit than that?”
Serkov frowned at Vivian’s words and was lost in thought for a moment.
“If you tear down the families one by one, the remaining power of the Shutzranova family will become stronger. So, it’s more beneficial for you to help me for the longevity of your family. I won’t force you if you want to miss that opportunity. I can always find other guys anyway?”
“Hey. Wait a minute.”
As Vivian smiled and turned around, Serkov’s words echoed in the lair, stopping her.
Vivian glanced back at him, a subtle smile on her face.
“What’s wrong? Weren’t you thoughtless?”
“I’ll just say one thing, don’t betray me.”
Vivian laughed mockingly at Serkov’s growling words, then turned slightly to the side.
“I told you, didn’t I? I keep my promises. Rather…”
At that moment, Vivian’s sidelong glance, with countless calculations going through her head, slowly moved towards his side.
“I need to know if you’ll keep your promise. Don’t you think so?”
In the place where her gaze was fixed, the dark silhouette of the being hugging Serkov’s side and trembling was reflected in Vivian’s blue eyes like glass beads.
“Don’t you think I need enough collateral?”
