## Chapter 20 – (4)
“I, I came… I came, you fucking bastard…”
“Just one more time…!”
“Ugh… Ah… Stop it…”
I poured the wave of pleasure that started from my waist right into her.
Minji shuddered all over, gripping the bed tightly with her hands.
“Ugh… Kgh…”
Reaching her climax, she twisted her waist wildly, burying her head in the blanket and stifling her screams.
The screams were muffled by the blanket, but her body didn’t stop convulsing.
Her face was already half-melted from the relentless, animalistic sex aimed at subduing her.
She wore the face of a hero defeated by pleasure.
Now, when I brought my face close, her mouth would automatically open, and her tongue would naturally reach out to greet me.
“Do you like kissing?”
“…Shut up… Haa…”
Contrary to her rough language, Minji seemed to enjoy kissing.
We shared a kiss, savoring the afterglow.
Sprawled out on the large bed, craving only each other’s saliva, made my head feel hazy.
At first, she would curse at me if even my fingertip touched her body, but now, even when I grabbed her breasts, she would only let out a soft moan.
She didn’t hide these moans anymore.
Her curses also seemed to have become a little, just a little, softer.
[Hidden Quest Complete]
[Subdue the Arrogant Hero]
[Acquire Stamina LV.1 Skill]
[Hidden Quest Complete]
[Complete the Black Market Request]
[Acquire Strength LV.1 Skill]
I completed two hidden quests at once.
I thought I might clear one, but it pleasantly exceeded my expectations.
Two, even.
And they were Stamina and Strength.
Not special skills, but skills that could be of great help to me now.
Even with just a level 1 skill, I could feel the vitality in my body.
If I wanted to, I felt like I could grab Minji’s waist right now and start a second round.
But Minji didn’t seem to be in good condition for that.
She already looked dazed, as if she would faint if she climaxed just one more time.
Anyway, there was plenty of time.
[Time Remaining: 2 weeks and 5 days]
It was a quest that lasted a full three weeks.
As the checkout time approached, we washed each other’s bodies.
In the process, we ended up caressing each other’s bodies a little too intimately, but unfortunately, we couldn’t have sex in the bathroom because of the checkout time.
After leaving the motel, Minji put on her mask and sunglasses again, grumbling.
“Being raped by a pervert and even paying for it…”
“I’m sorry…”
That was true.
I was the one who boldly suggested going to the motel, but because I didn’t have a penny to my name, Minji ended up paying for everything.
I could somehow manage the subway fare, but not the motel bill.
…Even the cost of the drink I took out of the fridge and drank because I was thirsty.
“Give me your phone.”
Minji took my phone and saved her name.
She hesitated for a long time before saving it as [Minji-nim].
It seemed like she hesitated because she was wondering whether to add a heart or not. In the end, she decided not to.
“Throw away that old wallet.”
After saying that, Minji held out her wallet.
The wallet was full of cash and cards.
I was flustered and tried to return the wallet, but Minji didn’t take it.
And I cautiously asked Minji, who was covering her face.
“Gaeun’s boyfriend? Um… Ah.”
Minji frowned as if she remembered something.
A displeased expression was clearly visible.
“Not her boyfriend, but there’s this guy who keeps talking to Gaeun a lot lately.”
Minji, who was already fully dressed, held out her phone to me, looking annoyed.
“But that guy is hitting on everyone around here.”
There was a photo on Minji’s phone under the name Kang Seok.
It was a photo showing off his muscular body, along with the message [How is it?].
Even more impressive was that Minji had only replied with two letters: [Idiot].
Kang Seok seemed flustered by the cold response, as he didn’t reply.
“Gaeun is so… She could just ignore him, but why does she keep accepting it? We won’t see each other in about three weeks anyway.”
“About three weeks?”
“Ah, it’s the day when the heroes’ ranks are regularly determined. They also check if there are villains mixed among the heroes. That guy is definitely a villain, right?”
As soon as I saw the period of three weeks, I remembered the end date of the quest I had read earlier.
[Time Remaining: 2 weeks and 5 days]
It seemed to overlap with the quest’s end date.
The previous quest came to mind.
The quest that ended with the amusement park.
What would have happened if I hadn’t been there then?
The two of them might have developed a deeper relationship at the amusement park.
I stopped that from happening.
So, on the day the heroes’ ranks are determined, Kang Seok might be recognized as a strong man by Choi Gaeun?
“But why are you asking about that?”
Minji, with her lips pouting as if she was annoyed, kicked my shin as I was lost in thought.
It didn’t hurt, but it was a kick that seemed to reveal her disappointment.
“If you hit on any other woman besides me, you’re dead, got it?”
“Okay. I won’t.”
“You answer well… Sigh.”
“…But then, are you allowed to?”
“…Do you think I am?”
After a long hesitation, Minji answered.
I took that long deliberation as a positive sign.
“You’re saying you are, right?”
“…Do whatever you want, you idiot…”
After stroking Minji’s cheek, who was unable to be honest, we parted ways.
After parting, I headed to the black market to receive the commission fee.
Before, I had only glanced at it in passing, but this time, I walked carefully, observing if there was anything that could be helpful.
As I entered the bar, the familiar scene unfolded for the second time.
The corner seats with smoke billowing out and the men and women diligently making out without caring about the gazes of others.
I enjoyed the sights while waiting for the employee.
“What’s going on?”
“I completed a request…”
“Ah, just a moment. Boss?”
The employee went inside to call someone, and the tattooed woman who had given me her business card before slowly walked out.
It was Violet, the owner of the black market bar.
She slowly walked out, examined the request form I had received, and gave a deep smile.
“Oh my, as expected, this kind of thing is your specialty?”
“Ahaha…”
“Hand.”
Then, as if ordering a dog, she suddenly reached out her hand to me.
Hesitating, wondering if she was asking for my hand, I reached out my hand, and she grabbed it tightly.
“You completed the request?”
“…Yes.”
Her hand was more slender than I thought.
The flashy nail art caught my eye.
“…Hmm, you really completed it. Here’s the commission fee.”
“Yes.”
Nodding, Violet gestured to the employee as if telling them to bring the money quickly.
Her tone of voice suggested that she was convinced that I had completed the request just by holding my hand.
Come to think of it, even when she first encountered me, she noticed that I wasn’t a hero after a light touch.
Is this Violet’s ability?
“That’s right, I can tell if someone is lying.”
Violet said with a smile.
“I figured you were curious.”
“I brought it.”
At that moment, the employee came running with light steps.
I thought that because they were bringing the money, they would bring a thick bag filled with stacks of cash, but they were only holding a small card in their right hand.
Violet gestured for me to take the card.
“Here, take it. It’s 70 million won.”
“…”
For a moment, I was breathless.
When I received the request form, I readily accepted it because I thought it would be useful in攻略ing Choi Gaeun, so I didn’t properly check the amount.
I had suddenly earned a huge sum of 70 million won.
“Don’t worry, it’s all there. I wouldn’t joke around with something like this. I might get eaten like the hero in this request if I did.”
Violet reassured me with a playful remark, perhaps mistaking my bewilderment at the enormous amount for suspicion.
I quickly grabbed the card and put it in my wallet.
And I was seen off by Violet and the employee as I stepped outside the bar.
It seemed rare for Violet to see someone off.
Of course, there was a reason for that.
The reason was that it was very rare to succeed in this kind of request.
“It can’t hurt to make a good impression, right?”
Saying that, Violet brought my hand to her butt.
“Please take care of me in the future?”
“…”
At that blatant appeal, I nodded and decided to look around the black market.
The first place I went to was a store that seemed to sell weapons.
There was no sign, but the weapons spread out in front of the store as if displaying fruit were impressive.
No matter which weapon I held, it fit perfectly in my hand like never before.
“Hmm…”
When I first saw Choi Gaeun’s defenses, I thought I had to fight and win against Choi Gaeun.
But after hearing the information from Minji, I changed my mind.
Perhaps defeating the man named Kang Seok was the right攻略法.
If I become a hero and raise my rank, will I have a chance to fight?
“…Knives are a bit…”
Blades were excluded.
I didn’t have the guts to stab someone with a knife or spear.
And ranged weapons were also excluded.
I didn’t know for sure, but even if I won, it didn’t seem like I would look like a strong man.
So, I picked up a baseball bat.
It looked ordinary on the outside, but it felt quite heavy when I held it.
If I hadn’t acquired the Strength skill, it would have been difficult to swing.
“There’s a steel core inside.”
The owner of the weapon store, who had been watching me choose a weapon, added an explanation after seeing my reaction.
I thought the weapons in the black market wouldn’t be ordinary, but as expected, there was something different about it.
However, my interest was in something a little different.
“Do I look strong?”
“…Huh? Ah, yes.”
I completed the payment with the card I received from Violet.
