episode_0046

The light-hearted story (?) has come to an end.

It was a truly brief moment, but it feels like a memory that will never be forgotten.

As I return, leaving behind such memories, that lunatic spoke to me.

-Thank you for the opportunity.

-I will strive to make Master Chang-gi happy during the remaining time.

-Oh, just in case, please don’t ignore me and endure it.

-Isn’t that too cowardly?

-It is desirable for you to enjoy your life as if you are giving me a chance.

Even if told not to ignore, responding so aggressively puts me in a difficult position.

However, ignoring him as he is now is too advantageous for me.

I’ll tease and enjoy everything and just say “I’m not interested in you.”

-That’s right.

-Tomorrow night, won’t you climb the tower with me?

-Prepare your equipment and come with me.

-Let’s take a walk together, like a date.

I showed signs of hesitation, so she immediately pulled out the next move.

Hmm. A date at the tower?

She’s such a strange woman.

There was already a strong sense of discomfort about the tower itself.

‘A date? Could there be something unusual?’

I accepted for now, thinking, ‘Would the same thing happen as on the 1st floor?’

-Of course, it’s a secret to Seong-yeon.

-Let’s go quietly, just the two of us.

…I should have realized at that moment.

I realized then that once I climbed the tower, I would definitely regret it.

The next day.

We set foot on the 11th floor of the Tower of Lust.

A floor modeled after the streets of Korea.

At first, it seemed like a peaceful downtown area.

Surprisingly, there were quite a few tall buildings, and the width of the map was no less than the 1st floor.

There was even a subway, making me seriously doubt whether it was not on a city scale.

-We ran from there.

-With all our might.

Forgetting the initial impression of peace, we ran and screamed at the top of our lungs!

Yes, running away from the ghosts chasing behind me!

“That’s exactly what I thought would happen! Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!”

“Ahhhhhhhh~♡”

“Screaaaaaaam!!!!!”

They are still chasing us!

The foul-smelling married women are coming!

Pretty and disgusting!

They all had horns on both sides and heart-shaped tails on their buttocks!

In other words, it was the llama I was eagerly anticipating!

“Why are you like this? This is the llama that Lord Changgi has been hoping for. Just close your eyes and dive once. They will surely welcome you happily.”

“Alright~! Of course they will welcome me! They aren’t just welcoming anyone, they are even willing to accept pee and poop from those people!!!”

From behind, the sound of the end of the world rang out!

“It’s time to finish off your dignity,” a warning sound echoed!

Clang.

Clang.

Clang.

Clangclangclangclangclang!!!!

Kkihe!! The [baby rattle] is approaching!!!

– Euhyoohhh!!!!

– There are many wounded poor children here and there!!

– What could have happened to them!!

– Come here quickly~!!!

– Kind mamas will gently lick each burn on your body~!

– Lean on mama’s chest and tell us about all the hardships you’ve endured~~!!

– Are you tired of life and struggling!?

– Or did someone bother you??

– Either way is fine!

– Mamas will take care of everything!!!

– Babies are good! You don’t have to think about anything!

– So, let’s be our child~!

– I’ll change your diaper!!!!

Kyaaaa!!!!

The llamas, dressed as kindergarten teachers, came in groups and approached!!!!!

“What on earth is this!!”

“As you can see, these are llamas managing the 11th floor here. If the 1st to 5th floors are for specific animal friends, this is a level for adults who need maternal love.”

“Adults in need of maternal love~!?”

“Poor adults worn out by life often come seeking it. It’s either to regain their dignity or simply because they want to be like children again.”

“Do such people really exist!?”

“They are quite numerous. More than a few people have sacrificed their dignity to feel safer and happier on the 6th to 9th floors.”

I didn’t ask for such a calm explanation!

What are these crazy guys doing!

Shaking a rattle, pushing a pacifier, trying to put a diaper on me~!

And…!

“Ouch! Don’t run away from Mama Teacher~!”

“I’ve prepared warm breast milk for youuu~!”

“Hehe. Take it! Shake shake! [Breast Milk Web] made by shaking lots of milk!”

“Eeeek!?”

Warm breast milk flying towards me from behind!

I quickly dodged to the side, but the milk stuck to the lamppost like a spider web!

“If you try to block that with a shield, you’ll still get caught.”

“What happens if I get caught!?”

“Are you foolish enough to ask me that?”

I looked back.

Diapers.

Pacifiers.

Even a milk bottle.

“Is that dangerous!?”

“Wearing it will curse you to have the strength of a kindergarten student. Just wearing it for a moment or drinking breast milk means defeat. Your body and mind will become like a baby that they love.”

“Do I die if I get caught!?”

“No casualties here. Instead, an indelible barrier will be etched into your soul.”

Ew, I don’t like it.

Big grown men calling themselves Mama and playing baby talk with nursery teachers?

They even change diapers and wipe bottoms for you!?

Being caught here not only damages your personality but also your dignity!!

“By the way, they also like women. If caught, I’m in danger too.”

“We’ll both be filled with diapers and turn into babies!?”

“That’s right. Wearing only a diaper and crawling on all fours.”

“Eeeek~!”

No! I kind of want to see Ceress acting like that!?

This floor is a disaster where strange fetishes might develop!

“As you can see, the map is vast, so even sending a rescue team only managed to save 20%.”

“Is this a real hell!?”

“It’s like heaven in hell. Once caught, your life is over, but they take care of you until you become an old man without worries.”

After hearing that, I somewhat understand why people entrust themselves to this place!

For example, if my life were to be stuck in a toilet for some reason, then this place would be considered as the last resort!

How many men would refuse when beautiful women raise them for a lifetime if they just sacrifice their dignity!?

– Are you thinking about it!?

– It’s okay! Mamas are kind!

– Just trust your body to them without any worries!

– Shall we go eat tonkatsu with Mama?

– How about the latest toys that came out!?

– Shall we go see a play with Mama!?

– Oh, that blonde girl over there! Pumpkin pants would suit her so well!

– Is the guy next to her her boyfriend?

– We’ll raise you both together!

– No way! I want to adopt her~!!

I hesitated for a moment but regained my composure.

I have no memory of sacrificing my dignity to the point of wearing diapers and acting like a baby with Ceress!!

“Sigh! Sigh! Damn it! Everywhere I go is full of nursery teachers!”

“It’s piled up.”

“Piled up!? You’re not talking about my balls, are you!?”

“Such harassment is a bit… I meant the nursery teachers. The number of heads has increased due to the blocked tower. We needed to periodically destroy buildings and clear them out, but we couldn’t, and this is the aftermath.”

“What about the advance team? They spent over a week mapping it out!”

“They must have already finished mapping and left. I heard they are near the 16th floor, dealing with some gimmick over there, which is why they are taking up time.”

As expected, the Guild of System Creators! They are truly the pros of system creation!

I don’t know how they did it, but they managed to break through these crazy mobs and map out this area!

“If we get caught, it’ll be a big problem. How about we stop running and take them out in one go?”

“But it’s the 11th floor!?”

“If you have the skills to defeat mobs on the 1st floor, there shouldn’t be a problem. Just be careful, as the attack patterns are simple compared to the 1st floor.”

‘Easy for you to say!’

Seress first stopped her steps, and at the right timing, I also turned around.

At the same time, we stomped on the ground. In the spot where we were standing, a cotton plant had grown through the cement.

Why are there cotton plants on the road? Is it because of the Tower?

No, there’s no time to think about this!

“I don’t get it! Am I really going!?”

“Yes.”

As Seress agreed, she gathered aura in both palms, condensed it, and then turned her upper body.

The image was similar to the energy wave from a famous manga.

“Take this! The aura I created by rolling around for a week! Aura Blast!”

First, she used the beam condensed in her palm as a preemptive strike to blow away the mobs.

Even though her naming sense was lacking, the effect was absolutely effective due to its simplicity.

“Ugh!?”

“The light, whoa!!!”

“Ahhhh!!!”

In their first real battle, Seress easily took down at least thirty mobs who were caught off guard.

On the other side, they were startled and took on an immature stance.

“The kids are coming at us!!”

“Hey, it’s probably because they’re stressed out!”

“Poor things!”

“Don’t back down!”

“Right! Society made these kids like that!”

“Let’s make sure to save those kids!!”

“Hey, wait right there! The moms are coming to get you~!!”

Despite their determined attacks, Seress unleashed her Lion’s Aura towards them.

The advanced aura technique she used when she tried to kill me for the first time.

Having seen it countless times during training recently, I could clearly see the beast that had shed its fangs ready to slaughter.

“Don’t you dare call yourselves my parents. It’s disgusting.”

*Rumble!*

A huge lion rose above them, raised its front paw, and slammed it into the ground.

The ground where the paw landed caved in, causing everything it touched to disappear due to the skill effect.

“Ah!?”

“Mama 18580 disappeared!”

“My comrade too!”

“Will they leave no corpses!?”

With one strike, five of them vanished.

Literally vanished.

It was a morale skill that could even extend the range of the aura.

*Roooar!*

“Kids, run away! The front paw is coming-!”

*Boom!*

This time, when the front paw swung horizontally, it killed thirteen of them.

The mobs couldn’t even scream.

“As expected, the top rankers are truly different!”

Not to be outdone, I gathered aura on my fingers, extending them like thorns, and pierced through five of them at once.

“Uwah!?”

“My, my heart?”

“I really don’t like killing humanoids! But you guys are an exception! Don’t make a mess in this place!”

“Ugh! Don’t do anything bad to Mama!!”

“We just want to make you guys happy!”

“Without worries! Without stress! Live happily~!”

“Seriously, are you trying to put diapers on me for that reason? You guys are a hundred years too early, you brats!”

The image of gathering aura on the thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and pinky, extending them like thorns, and piercing through them.

The hint is Seress’s skill.

The secret technique learned from a week of getting beaten up, [Aura Extension].

“Full-directional Aura Finger!”

“What-!”

With the five strands of aura coming out from the fingertips, I pierced through and cut them.

More accurately, I extended them long and pierced, then cut them from the fingertips. It was as if I was shooting out the extended aura from my fingertips.

“Kahaha!?”

“N-no way! What is this!!”

“Ahhhh!!!”

The piercing that extended from the five fingers penetrated the body, and the roots of the Ora that emerged were extinguished.

In reality, it was a piercing, but the point was to deceive as if it had been shot out at first glance.

“Uwaaa… I wanted to hug you a little more…!”

“Hueeeeeaaaah!!!”

The Umma struck by the fatal blow turned into dust from head to toe.

The sight of disappearing while being struck reminded me of the final moments of a vampire facing the sun.

“It’s working out perfectly! Hey, look here, you scoundrels! The unfilial son is leaving~! Ora finger! Ora finger! Ora fingeeeeeeer!!!!”

Gathering Ora on the right five fingers and firing it-!

While reloading Ora on the right, firing with the left five fingers-!

After using the left hand, firing with the right hand that finished reloading with five beams-!

“What!?”

“Someone, take cover!?”

“You fool! Don’t try to block it! Even if you block it, it will pierce through!”

“Sorry, I’m late… Kuhahahahaha!!!”

“Ahhhh! The large stroller bought for the kids is coming~!?”

One, two, three, four, five~!

Each strike results in death!

With each kill, children’s items fall to the ground with a thud!

Drop items fall in between, but there’s no time to collect them as they are killed!

“Eek!?”

“Tsk!”

“It’s too fast!”

“That finger is a diagonal line! Get out of there!”

“It’s easier said than done!”

Yes, easier said than done.

When I extend my Ora, the Umma that gets in the way is pierced and killed.

This is a new technique I acquired by increasing the speed of extending Ora for a week and mastering the skill to its limit.

Haha, awesome.

It’s like something out of a comic book coming to life-!

Gone are the days of sitting on the toilet, tensing my buttocks, and saying ‘Uwooo, beam come out!’

“…Changgi.”

Perhaps my appearance was intriguing, as Seres, who was making the surroundings dusty like me, suddenly asked.

“Why are you cutting off the Ora and shooting it?”

“Why?”

“If you can extend it that long, wouldn’t it be more convenient to swing it like a claw while expanding the Ora instead of cutting it off?”

In other words, she meant to create a form like herself.

A valid point.

Nevertheless, I will answer like this.

“Because it’s cooler this way!”

“To have my hard-earned skill copied due to such childish desires…”

From the moment I saw Seres’ Ora technique, I had delusions.

As expected, it’s easy to follow when there’s an example like in a comic book.

If this was possible, then ‘that’ might be possible soon too.

“Hehe. I have a reason to expand my Ora technique.”

“Are you thinking of something strange again?”

While we were chatting, the Umma started to move.

“Be careful, everyone! They might be a couple doing weird things together!”

“Don’t get too close to the girl! If you get hit, it’s instant death!”

“Guys, stick close together! Long-range attacks are their specialty!”

Although we killed them with great momentum, we were caught off guard immediately.

While screaming, some extended their breasts forward with milk, while others offered diapers, and some crazy women poured formula from a milk bottle.

“Why are spider webs coming out of the formula!?”

“It’s obvious. They probably wanted the victims to drink what they squeezed out.”

“So it’s not formula, but what they squeezed out~?”

“Do you want to drink it?”

“If it’s my girlfriend’s, I might not mind, but I don’t want their breast milk!”

I understood the rhythm.

I knew how the opponent would attack.

So, it’s simple.

“I’ll take care of the ones coming close. Changgi, please deal with the ones behind.”

“What should I do after dealing with them?”

“There’s a safety zone gimmick here like the safari bus on the first floor. After roughly clearing them out, run over there.”

“What kind of gimmick is that?”

Seres asked as she struck.

Beyond the road guarded by the Umma, a moderately large restaurant could be seen.

“Do you see that over there?”

At the entrance, there is a warning sign.

This place is known as the [No Kids Zone].

“Mothers who love their children so much can never set foot in this absolute area.”

“Man, the concept here is no joke, dodging this kind of thing really pisses me off.”

As a dating spot, it’s the worst, but for stress relief, it’s the best.

We became a formidable duo, defeating countless monsters and even reaching the safety zone gimmick.
