Chapter 549 – Gaiden 52) Rachel, a Girl Specializing in Kidnapping (1)
52) Rachel, a girl specializing in kidnapping
“Where?”
“Area 46.”
“If it’s Area 46… Is it the former S-class villain Baron Demon’s area?”
“That’s right.”
At Laonzena’s words, the succubus nodded.
“Villains are raging in the Daemon Baron’s area… It’s sure been quiet for a long time. Now it’s time for the villains to reveal their ambitions.”
After all, villains are so greedy that it’s hard to see them as human beings. They were always dissatisfied with what they had and wanted more.
Therefore, in Dark City, crimes by villains did not cease, and a war broke out between villain organizations to occupy the area.
So, in a way, it was natural for a war to break out in Area 46, which became Muju Gongsan when Baron Demon, who was an S-class villain, disappeared. No, it was rather strange that it had been quiet for the past three years.
“What about the damage to the citizens?”
Laonjena was concerned about the safety of the citizens living in District 46. This is because whenever the villains go to war, the citizens suffer.
Originally, it was up to the police and the Hero Association to be responsible for the safety of citizens. The police did not have psychic powers, but compared to the number of heroes belonging to the Hero Association, it was much smaller, so the two organizations maintained a close relationship.
In other words, there is no reason to worry about the safety of citizens living in District 46 because Raonjena is no longer a member of the Hero Association.
Still, Raonjena was concerned for their safety. Even though her body belonged to the man she loved rather than belonging to the Hero Association, her desire to protect the weak and powerless did not disappear.
And it was the same with other women who loved the Dark Knight, and that’s why the Ladies League exists.
“That is…”
“What’s the matter?”
“No one was hurt. There is no word that property damage has occurred.”
“Really?”
Laonjena was taken aback by the succubus’ answer. She can understand that no human casualties occur. Villains don’t always fight in the presence of citizens.
However, it was truly surprising that no property damage occurred. This is because the villains are the kings of the end of the nuisance that attack randomly if they are wrong.
“Hmm… Maybe it’s to prevent us or the Hero Association from intervening.”
“What should I do?”
At the succubus’ question, Raon Jenna was lost in her thoughts.
‘I haven’t figured out why that bastard attacked Jimin yet… But she doesn’t have time to care about that.’
Currently, Raonjena was conducting a background investigation at the request of the Dark Knight that Guizman was suspicious. Quite a bit of time has passed and she has made some progress, but she has yet to fully figure out Guizman’s purpose.
Raon Jenna, who has strong perfectionist tendencies, thought she would do a more complete investigation and report it to the Dark Knight.
She was therefore in Precinct 46 where no civilian casualties occurred.
“For now, let’s just watch over there. Anyway, what are the other kids doing?”
“What are you doing? Gina is busy with her company work, and Alice is also busy with school work. This bitch witch is also obsessed with some strange magic and goes around picking up weird things, and Riel sticks close to the owner. Anyway, I’m the only one working in the ladies’ league. !”
The succubus, who was talking to Raon Jenna about the current situation of her Ladies League members, pursed her lips, perhaps from the heat.
“Calm down, Jennifer. But it’s much better than when you’re not around, right?”
“… That’s right.”
The person they called their master was, of course, the Dark Knight. He now asked to call himself by a title other than master, such as brother or honey, but because he was used to being called master, he could hardly change it.
And how to call him master, he continued to call the Dark Knight master because he felt good (?) Because he felt bound to him.
Even until three years ago, they were decent people with normal tastes, but now… Anyway, the Dark Knight made the women strange.
“Anyway, let’s leave Area 46 alone until they unite completely. Rather than having them scattered in small numbers, we have to unite to get a full blowout. There’s a lot to worry about on the other side as well.”
“Yes I will.”
In the end, the Ladies League decided to leave District 46 unattended.
If they knew who was in Area 46, they would never have made this decision. But even the Ladies’ League watchdog couldn’t fully figure out what was going on in the shadows.

Hehe!”
“Kaiya, what do you like so much about?”
Sitting on my legs on the sofa, Kai was laughing at what he liked so much. I don’t know whose son it is, but he’s really terrifyingly cute.
I rubbed Kai’s cheeks, which were chewy like glutinous rice cakes.
“It’s good to be with Daddy!”
“Really? It’s nice that Dad can be with Kai too.”
I smiled wide at Kai’s words.
Kai is an idiot! She’s an idiot who only knows her dad!
“And it’s nice to be able to play with my brothers and sisters!”
“Uh, uh… So what?”
Somehow Kai looked more excited than when she said she liked being with me. Kai is not stupid…
“… Hmm.”
‘Looks like you need a friend.’
Until I returned, Kai was introverted and did not speak much, to the extent that I suspected that she had aphasia. Her orphanage, Enkai, had many children her age, but she didn’t get along with them, and she stayed quiet only by her mother, Emily.
So Emily and my girls who knew Kai were worried that something was wrong with him.
But since I came back, Kai has changed 180 degrees.
Like children her age, she ran around and talked all day. To the point where the previous appearances felt like lies.
Kai, she never tried to leave my side. To the extent that the term chewing gum suits it.
I didn’t hate that kind of Kai either. First of all she is my son. If my child follows me around, what parent would hate me?
That’s why I could feel it.
When Rachel’s friends come over to our house, she realizes that Kai is more excited than ever.
Now that she had filled her father’s void, she had to fill her friend’s. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t become Kai’s friend.
‘I’m going to take him to an orphanage from now on.’
Fortunately, there were many children of Kai’s age at the orphanage. She hadn’t even talked to them before, but since I came back, Kai’s personality has changed a lot. She’s sure she’ll be able to get along with those kids.
“Dad! I’m going to the gym with Laura!”
“All right, I’m going…”
Rachel and Laura, both in tracksuits, came out of the room and told me.
“Yes, have a good trip.”
“Hot?! Noona! I want to go too!”
Kai jumped off my bridge, his eyes shining at the sight of her two older sisters trying to exercise.
“Wait a little, sister! I’ll change and come back! You can’t go first!”
Kai didn’t want her sisters to leave her, so she hurriedly went to her room and changed into her sweatshirt.
“The older sisters aren’t going, so wear them slowly.”
Rachel reassured Kai.
“Hmm.”
In the meantime, I checked the clothes of the children. Exposure? Does not exist. No skin was exposed except for the face, neck, and hands.
But…
“… Rachel.”
“What? What’s wrong, Dad?”
“Aren’t the clothes too tight to the body?”
“Huh?”
Unlike Laura in her baggy sweatshirt, Rachel’s sweatshirt was tight against her body, revealing all the curves of her body. Although she is still young, our Rachel is the most beautiful girl in the universe.
Our Rachel is wearing a sweatshirt that fits her body, but what kind of man would be still! It will probably be very annoying! Of course, our Rachel is strong enough to deal with those bastards, but I don’t like it anyway!
“Hey Dad! What are you doing with this! These days everyone wears like this!”
“…!”
I was shocked to see Rachel shaking her hand. ‘Fortress’…?
‘This, this…!’
In an instant, chills went down my spine.
‘It’s a typical pattern of a father-daughter falling out!’
A daughter who keeps wearing short clothes and clings to her body, a father who says something to her, and a daughter who confronts such a father, saying that everyone dresses like this these days.
‘Be careful! If I do something wrong, Rachel will hate me!’
Being hated by Rachel was terrifying to imagine.
“Ha, haha… That’s right… Dad didn’t know what’s trending these days. Ha, haha…”
He smiled and nodded her head. The corners of her lips quivered.
“Nuna, I’m all dressed!”
“Really? Shall we go then? Dad, we’ll work out and come back!”
“I’m coming…”
“Hi Dad!”
Meanwhile, Kai, who returned after changing her clothes, held Rachel’s hand in one hand and Laura’s hand in the other. Wait for a sec? You say the three of you are going like that?
“Oh Rachel.”
“Yes?”
“Wouldn’t it be frustrating to have ‘Master Kevin’ at home? Why don’t we take this opportunity to go out together?”
“Hot?! I see! Dad is a genius!”
Come on-! Rachel ran to my room and took Master Kevin out. A white puppy with the inappropriate name of Master Kevin wriggled in Rachel’s arms.
“Then I’ll go for real now!”
“Yes, be careful.”
After seeing the children off, I let out a sigh.
“… I need to find out what’s trending these days.”
Rachel might think I sense a generation gap, so she had to study the latest trends beforehand. I hate being so far away from my daughter.
“Kyarleung!”
“… Come to think of it, it’s just the two of us left.”
“Kyareung?”
Emily went to work at her orphanage and her children went to the gym. The only thing left in the house is me and Cheetah Girl.
“… It’s not too late to study later.”
“Kyareung?!”
I undressed and approached Cheetah Girl.
“Kkak! Kyaang! Kyarrureung~!”
Moments later, Cheetah Girl’s groans resonated throughout the house.
*****
Rachel, Laura, and Kai started exercising by running in a nearby park.
“…”
“…”
Hee hee!”
The children running along the park were surprisingly serious about the exercise. Rachel shut her mouth and ran to Laura, matching her speed. If it weren’t for Kai, who was laughing brightly and running with her sisters, she would think that Rachel and Laura had a fight.
It was only after 30 minutes had passed that the silent children stopped running.
“Whoa… Whoa…”
Because Laura is tired. Rachel decided to go and sit on her bench for a while to rest for her weary Laura.
“Sister. I want to eat ice cream.”
As if he was craving something sweet, Kai pointed to the park concession stand and said,
“Really? What would you like to eat?”
“Ugh… Mint Choco!”
“Then shall we eat when we go home later?”
“Huh… I want to eat now!”
“Isn’t our Kai nice? If we eat later, my sister will buy me two ice creams.”
“Really? Then I’ll eat it later! I’ll have two with mint chocolate!”
“Hehe. Who does our Kai look like so he’s kind? He’s pretty~”
Hee hee!”
Kai smiled bashfully as Rachel stroked her hair. It was in good shape that her older sister’s touch was filled with her affection.
“Rachel… Let’s run again…”
“Are you okay? You can rest a little longer.”
“This much… I can endure it…”
“You can’t push yourself too hard, okay?”
“Huh…”
Laura took a deep breath and rose from her bench. Following Laura, Rachel and Kai got up and the three of them started running through the park again.
It was a truly peaceful day.
“…”
“…”
And that peace will soon be broken.
