Chapter 57

EP.57 Preliminary Battle #2

I saw a young man crouched in a corner, sniffling and crying.

His skinny, naked body was unmistakably that of a beggar.

This guy’s name was Astaroth, a powerful demon who feeds on the lethargy of living beings.

Currently, without any power supply, he was in a shrunken state. If I could inject some lethargic emotions into him, he would grow into a formidable being.

I called out to Astaroth, who was watching from the door.

“Astaroth.”

“Yes… Demon King…”

His voice was chilling, like nails on a chalkboard.

It sounded like he was protesting, demanding power through his voice.

Frowning, I looked at Marcella.

She then closed the door.

“Such a pitiful voice. If we let him out like this, even a brat could kill him.”

“Yes…”

“How much would it take for him to reach A-rank?”

“Just one person’s worth… If we throw him into a place full of living beings… Hmmm…♡ He’ll grow stronger on his own.”

Nodding, I headed to the center of the laboratory with Marcella.

Since the incident, she couldn’t look me in the eye.

She was embarrassed.

Moreover, she kept trying to leave even when I was just looking at her.

“Get your act together.”

“Y-yes… Should we gather power for Astaroth…?”

“I’ll gather it. Didn’t you say just one person’s worth is enough?”

“Yes…”

“I’ve thought of an interesting method.”

“An… interesting… method…? Just capture a human…”

It’s no fun if we just give it to him.

We should have an appetizer before the main course.

After stroking Marcella’s face, I left her collapsing weakly and returned home.

Opening the front door, Sehwa, who was lounging on the sofa eating snacks, jumped up and ran over.

“Did the work go well?”

“It went well. But I have to go out again. It’s not easy to funnel funds into the lab. I might not be back until dawn.”

“Ah… I guess there’s no helping it…”

Sehwa quickly became sullen and slumped her shoulders.

I affectionately tapped her forehead and chuckled.

“Contact Yuria. Let’s have a drink together. If she agrees, we can stay at that hotel.”

Sehwa’s eyes sparkled at that.

“Is that okay?”

“It’s better than waiting for me and feeling lonely. Or do you want to meet Seunghyun?”

“Hmm… If Yuria unni is busy, then I’ll meet him.”

Poor Seunghyun, completely pushed to the back of the line.

Sehwa excitedly picked up her phone and called Yuria.

Yuria, who likes Sehwa, naturally agreed, and Sehwa jumped into my arms, giving me a kiss full of love.

Then she suddenly apologized.

“Sorry… You’re working, and I’m just playing…”

“I told you not to say that.”

“Okay… I’ll be back?”

“Have fun.”

After sending Sehwa off, I immediately opened my laptop and logged into Twinkle.

A hundred carefully selected mutual followers.

All were active with distorted walls.

No messages.

Because I had closed DMs after filling the hundred.

I had temporarily disguised Sehwa’s Twinkle account linked to her phone.

So she wouldn’t see what I was doing.

Then I opened DMs and sent a message to the first mutual follower, a couple who enjoyed meeting other couples.

[Juju Couple, it’s evening. Are you online?]

After sending the message, I looked through other followers, and soon a reply came.

[Hello! Morning and Evening! We’re online! We saw the photos you posted, they were great!]

The slave photo of Sehwa in a maid outfit? That must have turned you on.

[Thank you. Do you also invite others besides couples?]

[Of course. Why?]

[I need to shoot a video today, but Morning is too sick. If you could shoot one video with me today… I’ll guarantee you an ad deal. We’re secretly in talks with an agency.]

[An ad? Is this a secret deal?]

[Once we finalize with the ad agency, it’ll go public.]

[Uh… hold on.]

It was a former account with 700k followers.

Both Sehwa and I have perfect bodies, and we haven’t posted much, yet this level.

With such potential, it’s good to get close, right?

Soon, Juju Couple replied.

[My girlfriend said it’s okay. Can we get some photos? We know your body from the previous account, but can we see your face… hehe…]

I took a photo with my laptop cam.

If I send this face as is, the guy might feel pressured, so let’s make it look a bit uglier and send it.

You’ll be gone after today anyway, so bear with this much effort.

[Wow… You’re really handsome. My girlfriend will like it. Can we upload the video to our paid content site? Of course, we’ll blur your face.]

Paid content sites are the main income source for such couples.

Twinkle is just for promotion, and they sell videos for money.

Popular accounts with good promotion can make a fortune, but Sehwa and I are exceptions.

We’re swimming in money.

I typed.

[Of course. What’s the concept for the video?]

[Hmm… Since it’s our first time meeting Evening, let’s keep it soft, like a couple having sex. I’ll come in the middle to take photos and videos… You know the preparations, right?]

Preparations mean STD tests, condoms, etc.

[Everything’s ready.]

[Then come to XX Motel in Hwagok-dong in 2 hours. I’ll send you the room number.]

[Okay. Ah, my phone number is…….]

After giving my number, I deleted the DM and lay on the bed, whistling.

Astaroth, I’ll get the lethargy you love from that guy.

**

Arriving at the motel Juju Couple told me, I texted the guy that I had arrived.

Then, a window on the 7th floor opened slightly, and someone peeked out.

They watched me doing the prearranged actions.

That someone was the guy I DMed.

The window closed, and a reply came to my phone.

[Knock four times on room 701, and my girlfriend will open the door. Greet her, show the preparations, wash up, and then we’ll start. I’ll be in the next room.]

[Got it.]

Such deviant meetings are always risky.

Today, you’ve stumbled into that danger.

Going up to the 7th floor, I found room 701 and knocked four times.

Knock. Knock. Knock. Knock.

The door opened, and a pretty girl looked at me.

She was wearing a bathrobe, looking quite haughty.

Seeing my face in a simple T-shirt, she was very surprised.

You like it more in person, right? Of course, you would.

“Ah, hello?”

She shyly bowed her head.

I smiled.

“Hello. Can I come in?”

“Ah, yes…”

She let go of the doorknob.

As soon as I entered, I rummaged through my pocket and took out the preparations.

STD test results and condoms.

The girl glanced at them and smiled faintly.

“After you shower… um… come out naked.”

“Not much experience with invites? You seem nervous… I’ll be gentle.”

“Ah… actually, I’ve had a few… but someone like Evening…”

“Call me Jihyuk.”

“Ah, yes. Jihyuk, this is my first time with someone like you… I’m Minjeong. Kim Minjeong.”

“I know. You showed your ID when you sent us a follow request.”

“Right… I did.”

I smiled leisurely, took off my clothes, and went into the bathroom.

After a quick shower, I came out to find Minjeong holding her phone, the blanket pulled up to her chest.

Her robe was neatly folded by the bed.

My clothes were hung on the robe hanger, and seeing that, I realized the power dynamic had completely shifted.

Seeing my naked body, Minjeong let out an involuntary gasp.

Not because of my perfect body, but because of my still flaccid penis.

I’ll satisfy you. Don’t worry.

I smirked and asked.

“Shall we start?”

“Ah… um… I brought massage oil…”

Want to warm up with a massage? I’m not into that.

“I can’t do massages… Your boyfriend didn’t ask, so I thought it wasn’t necessary.”

“Is that so?”

“Should I leave?”

Minjeong was startled.

“No…! Then shall I do it…?”

“To film?”

“No… just as a service? Think of it that way…”

That’s fine.

Nodding, I silently lay down next to Minjeong.

She picked up the massage oil from the coffee table and sprinkled some on my back.

I felt the lukewarm, sticky sensation and her thin hands caressing my back.

“Don’t you need to film too? I heard it’s for an ad…”

“The ad is true, but we’ll just use parts of the video your boyfriend films.”

“I see…”

Turning my head, I admired Minjeong’s figure as the blanket slipped down.

She wasn’t toned from exercise, just slim.

She reminded me a bit of Aram.

But the laurel tattoo on her left thigh and the belly button piercing gave her a different allure.

“Mmm…”

As Minjeong’s touch made me let out a soft moan, she smiled and began gently scratching my back with her nails.

A ticklish, erotic feeling. When her nails grazed my butt, I got quite excited.

As I squirmed slightly, Minjeong climbed onto my butt and began earnest foreplay.

She rubbed her chest against me, slipped her hand between my torso and the bed, and subtly touched my nipples.

She pressed between my ribs, licked my earlobe, and even blew air into my ear.

It felt good. But it was too cheap.

Like a promiscuous prostitute with no sense of chastity.

It would have been different if Sehwa had done it.

No longer finding value in this massage-like foreplay, I changed positions with Minjeong.

She below, me above.

Seeing my fully erect penis, Minjeong involuntarily swallowed.

Much thicker than your boyfriend, huh?

I gathered Minjeong’s legs over one shoulder and pressed down on her thighs.

I didn’t use a condom, and Minjeong didn’t seem to want one either.

Before she could say anything, I thrust into her.

“Haaang…!”

Having taken many men, she was quite loose.

As I started pistoning, Minjeong’s half-genuine, half-fake moans turned into pure pleasure.

Soon, her boyfriend quietly opened the door and entered.

“Haaang…! So big…! So big…! I love it… Hyaaang…♡ I love it…!”

He seemed a bit surprised by his girlfriend’s coquettish moans.

It must have been the first time Minjeong made such sounds.

Maybe because the lighting was dim, he didn’t notice I wasn’t wearing a condom.

But it didn’t matter. He wouldn’t do anything.

He forgot about filming and just blankly watched us have sex.

Lethargy comes from everywhere.

From losing the will to work after being crushed by a boss, to feeling extreme fear threatening survival,

Or when a dominant male appears and almost rapes a female.

Minjeong’s boyfriend compared himself to me, superior in every way, and grew increasingly pathetic.

Normally, he should have been angry and pulled me away, but he couldn’t.

Aside from the prearranged play, he was overwhelmed by my beastly desire for his lover.

And the intimidation I subtly exuded had a big effect.

I smiled mockingly at him and asked Minjeong without stopping.

“Do you like it?”

“I love it… I love it… I love it…♡”

She was close to orgasm, her body writhing, showing the whites of her eyes.

Her boyfriend seemed to have lost all will to do anything.

He held the camera but wasn’t recording, just slumped, his pathetic penis in hand.

He had lost all motivation and was lethargic. Normal people’s mental strength is about this much.

He’ll be good nourishment for Astaroth.

After exploring Minjeong for a while, I sucked in all the gray energy from the man’s body.

I had gathered the lethargy for Astaroth.

“Where… where should I cum?”

“Inside… inside me…! Inside…!”

“Your boyfriend is watching.”

“I don’t care… I don’t care…! Uhhng…! Just cum…♡”

“I’ll cum now.”

“Yes… yes!”

As my thighs tensed, Minjeong screamed.

“Haaaaaak!!”

She arched her back, receiving my cum.

Placing my hand on her trembling body, I pressed down and thought.

What a waste of talent.

Goodbye, you deviant sluts. Thanks to you, Astaroth will gain power.
