Swaaa, the leaves grown on the tree branches rooted in the sky rustled in the wind, making sounds. Although the tree branches and leaves covered the blue sky, sunlight streamed through, caressing his cheeks. Lost in a daze, without a single thought, staring blankly at the scene, he realized he was facing the girl’s golden light. It was the moment he unconsciously reached out to the endlessly lovely light that never changed and only looked at him, no matter how much time passed.

The branches and leaves rooted in the sky behind the girl turned into red liquid and melted without any warning. He closed his eyes because of the liquid pouring towards them, but he did not feel as if he was being covered in blood. The scene that came into view when he opened his eyes again was a place that made him doubt whether it was the warm spot under the Zelkova tree that had been peaceful until just a moment ago. A blood-red world where the surrounding forest, the large Zelkova tree, and even the girl had disappeared.

“Velka! Velka!! Where are you?”

He tried to move his feet to find the girl, but soon realized he could not move. The sensation of being firmly held by something heavy made him look down, and he was able to see.

“Wh, what is this?”

The red lake that came up to his knees was not simply red water. The thick and sticky, eerie feeling was definitely blood. He tried to pull his foot out of the lake, but could only realize that he was stuck to something and could not move. His heart was beating fast. The anxiety that he could not stay like this filled his head, and he struggled, when splash! he heard a sound like something falling. He looked around, but could not see anything.

Only a monochrome world filled with red blood and a red sky stretching beyond the horizon. The lake made of blood was still quiet. Or rather, it seemed quiet. Splash, splash, he kept hearing sounds like that from somewhere. Splashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplashsplash Isn’t that the sound pouring out from all directions? Even so, the quiet lake of blood showed him that he had to get his feet out of here, or so he thought.

“Huh…?”

He was soon able to find a white hand stretching out from the blood and grabbing his wrist. It was definitely a hand that stretched out from the blood, yet it was a stark white hand with not a single corner stained red. Then, as if the other hand grabbed him from within the blood and pulled him, she soon revealed herself from within. Even in this red and red world, a naked woman with hair shimmering like water, white skin, looking at him with the same color as this world. Asher remembered that figure.

“Poh…ati?”

As if telling him that his murmur was the correct answer, Pohati smiled and came right up to his nose. No, could it be said that she came closer? She had grown incredibly large. Large enough to swallow him in one bite, and as soon as he thought that, she opened her mouth wide. At the same time, pink, wriggling flesh walls filled his vision, and he was swallowed whole in an instant. It all happened so quickly that he didn’t even have time to figure out what was going on.

For a moment, he saw light in the blackened vision. When he regained his sight, he was lying in an unknown space. He tried to get up, but his body wouldn’t move. The reason was simple. Countless Pohatis were holding him down as if crushing him. Their eerie red eyes looked at him and smiled lewdly. No, some of them were even filling their pleasure using his body on their genitals as if masturbating, and his thing was also being swallowed by another Pohati.

“”Feeling good?””

Several voices, the same yet different, overlapped and echoed. Was he feeling good? He didn’t know. The girls who swallowed his thing and occupied his whole body were too heavy.

“”Stay, stay, with us forever.””

He was feeling that something was wrong, but for some reason, the thought of questioning it didn’t come to mind. When he was quietly entrusting his body to them and immersed in lust and moans.

“Eugh!!”

An alien groan was heard from somewhere. A sound full of pain and suffering, different from their lewd and satisfied feeling. He turned his head to where the sound was coming from. There, golden light stained with sadness was looking at him. The girl was moaning as someone violated her. His hazy mind suddenly cleared as if struck by lightning. He had to go. He had to go to the girl. But his body did not budge.

“”Where are you going? You decided to be with us, didn’t you? You can never escape from here.””

Because the Pohatis were holding him and wouldn’t let go. Still, he desperately tried to move his unmoving body, looking at the violated girl. To confirm the shameless man who was violating the suffering girl behind her. And the moment he confirmed the identity, he was shocked. There, with his skin peeled off, his entrails exposed, and even the remaining skin tattered and full of bruises, Mac was holding the girl’s slender body as if to break it.

“Ugh! Ah…!”

The girl let out a moan like a scream and looked at him. Tearful golden eyes were asking him for help. Her slender body shook more and more violently as the man moved. It seemed as if the sight of the girl’s vulva forcibly accepting the man’s thing, not his, was vividly approaching before his eyes. He had to go. He tried even harder to save the girl, but the unmoving body gave him despair.

“”No. You are ours.””

And the moment he thought Mac smirked, it had changed into someone else’s appearance. The changed appearance was Phan, whom he had abandoned in the wilderness. He was violating the girl. No, on closer inspection, it wasn’t Phan. A constantly shaking vision. In the blurry feeling, he regained his form and was definitely Rogi. Rogi was holding the girl and pouring pure white semen into her. Again, no matter how much he moved, his body would not budge.

He screamed and screamed, but even the screams were swallowed in silence, and he couldn’t make a sound. In that terrible world, he discovered a shadow looming before his eyes. It was a Pohati who was spreading her vulva wide and holding it up to his face. The moment he saw the flesh walls, like a mouth, wriggling inside, he was swallowed there.

“Keuhaak!!”

It was after he got up from the bed that he finally let out a scream.

“Heo, where is here?”

It was an unfamiliar room. It wasn’t luxurious, but he could tell that this place, filled with neat and basic furniture, was one of the guest rooms in the castle he had been assigned to. Looking out the window, even morning had not yet arrived. It was a dark dawn with no moonlight. Suddenly, fear rushed into the dark space, and with sweaty hands, he barely lit the extinguished candle, and he could see Rogi lying sound asleep across from him. Soon, anger rushed in, and he regained his senses after trying to strike him down with the candle he had just lit.

“Was it a nightmare?”

It was an indescribable, painful sensation to call it a simple dream. His heart was pounding so hard it hurt, and his whole body was soaked in sweat and unpleasant. Every time those vivid scenes that he couldn’t think of as dreams came to mind. His body trembled. He felt like he was suffocating from the stuffiness, so Asher left the room. The hallway was filled with darkness, so he couldn’t see properly, so he took the candle and went out into the hallway.

“Ugh, it’s cold.”

His body trembled from the chilly, cold air, but because that air refreshingly pierced through his stuffy breath, he started walking down the hallway as it was. There were candles lit sparsely in the hallway, so it was relatively bright. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to stick his head out the window and take in more cool air, but outside the window was only darkness that he couldn’t see an inch ahead. He couldn’t bring himself to stick his head out, as if he would be pulled in and plunged into the darkness as soon as he put his face there.

How long had he been wandering the boundary between dream and reality, trembling in unfaded fear? When he came to his senses, he was in the central hall. If he went a little further from here, it was the room where the women were assigned. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to see the girl, but he could see those who were standing guard all night. He thought he would be teased by Media if he was caught by them and misunderstood, so as he was about to move his steps elsewhere. The moonlight hidden in the darkness illuminated the window.

“Asher?”

“Velka.”

At the same time, he discovered the girl standing in front of the window and approached her. Even though he looked reluctant to see him approaching in the darkness in a staggering state that he himself couldn’t even call sane, the girl hugged him. The sweet scent blew away the fishy and unpleasant smell he had felt in his dream. A long time had passed since Asher hugged her without saying a word, but Velka lightly patted his back in her arms.

“Did you have a nightmare or something?”

“Yeah, it was really… really scary.”

It was a terrible nightmare in which he lost everything as his everything was swallowed up without being able to protect her or reach out to her, this warm girl. If he hadn’t been able to confirm her appearance by hugging her like this now, he might have trembled with anxiety all night. He tried hard to hide the tears that were slowly flowing down and asked the girl.

“But Velka? Why are you here?”

It was still far too early for people to wake up. Besides, he remembered that Media had taken her, saying she would sleep together, so why was the girl alone here? Then, Velka seemed to flinch.

“That’s, because Asher wasn’t there… I was lonely.”

Her voice grew smaller and smaller, and by the end, it faded, but it was clearly heard in his ears now that it was quiet all around. He somehow smiled. Until just now, it had been so scary and painful. Now that he had met the girl, it felt like the nightmare he had just had was gone.

“Woowo, don’t laugh at me.”

“I’m not laughing. I’m just, happy.”

“Happy?”

Yes, how could he not be happy when she was by his side like this.

“If Asher is happy. I’m happy too.”

The girl, who had been staring at him intently, smiled. Asher, who was facing that appearance, couldn’t bear it and brought his face to her. And the soft touch that touched his lips. Was it because of the lips that touched slightly and then fell off? The girl blankly stared at him, and then she burst into flames.

“Aeuugh, Asher…!”

The girl’s golden light, which looked resentful but not hateful. Asher soothed the sulky Velka and stood side by side, looking out the window. The outside of the window, which he had been afraid to even look at until he met her, was a beautiful sight illuminated by the bright moonlight. Perhaps because the moonlight was too bright, he couldn’t see many stars, but a faint but large, round rainbow was shining around the large moon. The sight looked like a huge eye of something looking down at the earth from the other side of the sky.

“Pretty.”

Asher muttered as he looked at the sight. He had seen many appearances of the night sky, but it was one of the most beautiful sights he could count on his fingers.

“Then shall we look around a little more and go in?”

He nodded at the girl’s words and looked at the night sky. Then, tired of standing, they sat side by side in the hallway and leaned against each other. Even so, their eyes were looking at the moon and the rainbow that surrounded the moon. Then, the contents of the nightmare came to mind again. The golden light that had asked him for help came to mind. The pain filling the girl’s golden light as she was forcibly violated because she didn’t have the strength to protect herself. The pain of having to just watch that sight.

“Velka.”

“Why?”

The girl invariably answered his call.

“I’m going to get stronger. I’ll get stronger and protect you, no matter what.”

He didn’t want to experience that pain again. He didn’t want to hurt the girl again. He remembered the powerlessness and fear he had felt so deeply in the sparring with Rogi and relived it with the dream. So that no one would dare to lay a hand on her. He would get stronger so that no one could covet her. He vowed.

“…Yes.”

The girl smiled as if she was overjoyed at his vow. The night, which had been riddled with fear, terror, and unpleasantness, was gradually being stained with gentleness and becoming a memory.
