13. My Unhealthy Relationship with Her and Her (2)

The cold, damp night air brushed against my cheek.

I found myself blankly staring at the moonlight shattered on the waves of the sea.

Sitting on a rock, listening to the sound of the crashing waves, I gradually became drowsy.

Judging by Jung Yewon’s reaction earlier, it seemed like nothing more would happen today, so I decided to just go to bed early.

However, I felt I should take at least minimal precautions.

If someone other than Ryu Shin was secretly listening to my conversation with Jung Yewon, or if it was people from another group, though the possibility was slim, the situation would become complicated in many ways.

“Alice, if you’re listening, come out.”

“Yes, Master…”

In less than three seconds after my words, Alice emerged from the shadows.

Thanks to the seal of the master-servant relationship I had engraved on her recently, I could now contact Alice wherever she was.

Besides the communication function, there were countless other functions that allowed me to control her body at will, such as forced heat and ovulation induction, but I had barely used them in practice because I was busy preparing for exams.

When I get back home later, I should put her in extreme heat and see how she acts.

“What did you call me for…? If you want a dick service, I’ll prepare immediately…♡”

“I have something more important than that right now.”

Looking at Alice’s chest in her tight-fitting suit, I felt an urge to touch her.

But since I didn’t call her for that purpose today, I calmed myself down and explained my request to Alice.

“From now on, hide in my shadow and if you see anyone trying to harm me, subdue them immediately. If I fall asleep, wake me up right away.”

“Understood… Ho, if I do well, can I get a dick reward later…?”

“Okay. I’ll set aside a day and give you plenty, but for now, you need to concentrate and watch.”

“Yes…!”

Alice bowed and melted into the shadows.

Although she obeyed me due to the Complete Hypnosis Ticket, she was still a kind of Great Demon, with the ability to easily subdue a few Awakened Ones.

Now that I’ve installed the Alice alarm, should I go to sleep?

Entering the tent, the slightly cramped but cozy space welcomed me.

I laid out the pillow and blanket I borrowed from Ryu Shin because I hadn’t brought my own, and prepared to go to bed.

However, I encountered an unexpected crisis.

“I can’t sleep…!”

Perhaps because I went to bed too early yesterday, my eyes were wide awake even after lying down for about 30 minutes.

I tried counting sheep, a classic sleep induction method, but it was no use.

I was supposed to wake up early tomorrow too…

Instead of calling Alice right away, I decided to lie down a little longer.

As I pulled the blanket back up to my head, I suddenly heard the sound of the tent entrance zipper opening, jjik.

It was Won Harin.

“I was just about to go to sleep, why did you come?”

I didn’t know where she washed her hair, but her hair was flowing with a glossy sheen.

Thanks to the yellow light of the camping bulb, her face, which seemed subtly flushed, was strangely attractive.

I almost felt a slight flutter without realizing it, but the following words from Won Harin instantly cooled my heart.

“You, you did something lewd with Jung Yewon, didn’t you.”

So, that eavesdropper earlier was Won Harin.

I could roughly grasp her intentions for approaching me at once.

She was probably going to use Jung Yewon as an excuse to blackmail me somehow.

I didn’t know exactly what she wanted, but if she acted this disgracefully, I would have no choice but to respond firmly.

“Hmph, how predictable. That big-boobed Jung Yewon must have clung to you again, rubbing her tits all over you. But… forget about her and only look at me now.”

At that moment, Won Harin suddenly widened her eyes as she was speaking and began to stare intently at me.

Was she using some kind of mental ability?

• Master, that human is trying to use seduction right now… But because of your unknown ability, it seems like seduction itself isn’t working at all. Should I go out and take care of her now?

• No, I don’t think you need to come out until I tell you to.

Hearing Alice’s words, I could finally understand Won Harin’s intentions.

From the beginning, she came with the intention of completely ‘dominating’ me rather than blackmailing me.

She must have secretly listened to Jung Yewon and me talking intimately and thought she had to take me away.

At least, the Won Harin I saw today was someone desperate to devour Jung Yewon somehow.

But for some reason, her ability had no effect on me at all.

Whether it was because the [Hypnosis] judgment was much better than hers, or because I came from another world, I learned another useful piece of information.

Now that things had turned out this way, I decided to play along with her a little more.

I was a little curious to see how Won Harin would react when she realized the truth that her ability didn’t work.

“Why are you staring so intensely?”

At my nonchalant words, Won Harin widened her eyes even more in embarrassment.

She had filled her eyes with so much mana that the capillaries burst, turning the whites of her eyes red.

“W-what is it…? If I did it this strongly, you should lose your mind right away?”

Ah… Won Harin, that’s too bad.

You picked the wrong compatibility, way wrong~

For some reason, everyone who goes against me, like Alice and Won Harin, feels vulnerable to my abilities.

Well, it was beneficial in the end, so I wasn’t particularly dissatisfied, but the strangely fitting coincidence was fascinating.

“Are you done? Then can I try now?”

I took out my phone from my pocket and strode towards her.

Sensing some unknown sense of crisis, Won Harin quickly tried to escape from the tent, but small hands suddenly popped out of her shadow and grabbed her ankles.

Nice catch, Alice.

“Kyaa!”

“Alice, keep her tied up so she can’t escape.”

I was already looking forward to how to make this rude, arrogant, and disrespectful woman.

Feeling the vibration of the hypnosis app after a long time, I pressed the button firmly in front of Won Harin’s face, who was being held.

“Thank you for coming in on your own… Now, let’s start with some true education.”

Won Harin’s eyes immediately lost their light.

I didn’t expect to be able to hypnotize her so easily, but things turned out too easily than expected.

I thought I would only be able to see a slight timing at least tomorrow night when I was busy with additional assignments.

First, I need to repay some of my mental debt before hypnotizing her.

My fist was already clenched tightly.

“Alice, hold her well from behind so she doesn’t fall.”

I slapped Won Harin’s cheek hard with my palm filled with mana.

Her head turned sharply, but it wasn’t enough to break the hypnosis yet.

And above all, even if the hypnosis breaks, I can just reapply it.

Won Harin’s ability is ineffective against me, and Alice is suppressing her so she can’t escape, meaning she can never leave this place unless I release her.

“You bitch.”

Jjaak.

“I told you not to run your mouth recklessly, didn’t I?”

Jjaak.

“I can’t help it. Let’s get hit for Jung Yewon’s share too.”

Jjaak.

Jjaak.

Jjaak.

Won Harin’s face, which had been hit for so long, was already so swollen that it was hard to recognize her original appearance.

She had probably already broken out of hypnosis by now, but she was trembling and didn’t say anything, as if she was scared.

“Alice, can you heal her?”

“Yes… Should I heal her right away?”

“Yeah. It’s a bit unpleasant to look at her with that dirty face.”

When Alice heard my words, she muttered something, and a huge hand rose from the shadows and covered Won Harin’s entire face.

The shadow hand moved a few times and then disappeared, and Won Harin had returned to her normal face from before.

“Hey, Won Harin.”

“…”

“If you don’t answer, you’ll get hit again.”

“Yes, yes…! Heuk, I’m sorry…!”

Her disgusting expression of looking down on us had disappeared, and she said to me with the most humble expression she could muster.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry…! I didn’t recognize you and made a mistake… I won’t do it again…! I’ll apologize to Jung Yewon too…! I won’t touch her again, so just once… Kyaeup!”

Alice covered her mouth with a shadow hand because Won Harin was making so much noise as she poured out her words in a near-scream.

I was already a little annoyed too, but Alice was showing a lot of sense today.

“Eueup! Eup! Eup!”

I gave Alice a thumbs up and leaned my face towards Won Harin, who was still screaming with her mouth covered.

When Won Harin saw my murderous eyes, she stopped screaming, and the tent finally became a little quieter.

“You seem to be thinking of screaming for help, but this is a soundproof tent, you know? So, no matter how much you scream, no one will come.”

“Eup, heueup…”

“So, you should have lived a little nicer. Why did you treat Jung Yewon so badly? Let’s hear the reason. Alice, take your hand away for a moment.”

“…I was bothered that she was more popular than me in class… So, I deliberately did bad things to Jung Yewon… I’m sorry…! I really won’t do it again…! Please let me go…!”

Wow, so Jung Yewon was just suffering for no reason?

I naturally assumed that Won Harin had provoked her first, but I didn’t expect her to commit such acts because of a trivial factor like ‘popularity’.

“I don’t think I can let you go. I’m going to rehabilitate you, so stay still.”

Her face was already quite attractive, so if I fixed her personality a little, she might become a decent woman.

I couldn’t just pass by because I felt sorry for the other people who would suffer in the future, so I decided to change her myself this time.

I’ve been trying to refrain from messing with the heroines’ personalities since what happened with Hayul, but I can’t help it this time.

After all, she was more than just a piece of human trash.

Now it was time to properly capture Won Harin.
