44. Soi

Seorae sighed, looking at the approaching men.

To think they’d insist on being punished even after someone gave them a chance. I can’t understand their psychology at all.

 

“Are you guys confident? Can you handle all of this?”

 

She issued a final warning.

Unlike back then with Wangi, she’s matured a bit(?), giving them opportunities multiple times.

 

“Hmph. We’ll use you until you’re worn out, then sell you off to the brothel. It’ll be no use crying and begging then. It’s all your karma!”

“Oh, really?”

 

It seems there’s no room for redemption.

Seorae roused her energy.

 

“If you’re going that far, then I have to respond too.”

 

Her original Tier 5 skills, coupled with the power of Baemgeunil.

Moreover, she had absorbed countless blood during the last Holy War, and she had unknowingly created many victims even until now, so she was stronger than she thought.

 

“Capture her! Shoot her limbs just enough to immobilize her!”

“Yes!”

 

The men started the attack first.

Their arms began to transform, and something like gun barrels popped out.

 

“Oh my, how scary.”

 

She dodged all the incoming bullets without a hint of fear.

Physical abilities that were impossible to consider human.

 

“Wh-what! She wasn’t an ordinary woman?!”

 

The leader was greatly surprised.

 

“You idiot, do you think ordinary humans can enter the Imperial Palace? Do you even have a brain?”

 

Seorae mocked him and darted around.

Incredibly fast, barely keeping up with the pinnacle of advanced science, the Eternal Life Body.

 

She moved behind one of the men at a speed far exceeding the speed of sound.

 

“You’re it~.”

“Keuk!”

 

And before he could react, she bit his neck clean off.

 

Kwadeuk!

 

A scream erupted along with the gruesome sound.

It was loud enough to echo throughout the entire Imperial Palace.

 

“Let go! You bitch!!”

 

The remaining men aimed various weapons, but couldn’t fire because their comrade was being held hostage.

Even in the midst of that, Seorae was absorbed in her bloodsucking.

 

“She’s…sucking blood…!”

“Could she be a vampire? Are there monsters like that here???”

“No, more than that, we’re Eternal Life Bodies! There’s no way mere teeth could penetrate….”

 

The men were in shock.

Something incomprehensible was happening according to their common sense.

 

Eternal Life Bodies were known to have extreme defense and attack power.

Right now, Rea, who had fallen into a primitive civilization, had hastily created them in 20 years, so their condition wasn’t great, but they still had bodies strong enough to easily deflect ordinary physical attacks.

But to be bitten by the teeth of a mere creature.

 

“Kkeu…kkeuaaaaaak…! Sa, save me…save me…!”

 

ㅡEmergency. An unknown foreign substance is invading the body. Activating the self-defense system.

ㅡEmergency. The components within the body are being infected at a rapid rate. At this rate, the system cannot be maintained…jijik…cannot…jik…

 

Terrible pain.

Even if all the hardships experienced since birth were combined, it wouldn’t be as severe as this.

 

ㅡJik…jijik…Warn…ing…Due to infection…the Eternal Life…jijik…Body is being trans…formed.

 

Uduk ududuk.

 

The skeleton began to change.

Naturally, even more extreme pain was felt.

 

He screamed so desperately that everyone who saw him trembled, and foam was coming out of his mouth.

 

“Hmm…the blood tastes a little different?”

 

The men were half-stunned by the horrific sight.

 

A speed that was barely trackable by the eye, and teeth that easily pierced the defense of an Eternal Life Body.

Being bitten by it caused such desperate screams and transformation into a bizarre form.

How many people could maintain their sanity after witnessing this terrible situation?

 

“Ge, get a grip!”

 

At least the leader was somewhat useful.

However, his cry was not very meaningful, because the transformation of the Eternal Life Body was happening in a completely different direction than expected.

 

Only a few minutes had passed, but the rough skeleton was established.

 

Female.

 

It was clearly turning into a woman’s body.

 

 

“You said that earlier, didn’t you? That you’d use me until I was worn out and sell me off to the brothel.”

 

Seorae smiled bitterly, looking at the horrified men.

 

“I’ll return those words exactly as they are. I was already wondering how to proselytize the Empire these days. I guess it can be resolved today.”

 

She spread her arms to the left and right.

 

“From what I see, you guys, who are made of something like golems, also turn into women when bitten. Then the answer is simple, isn’t it? We’ll build a temple under the name of the Aran Pleasure Church, and you’ll provide ‘free’ sex services there. How about it? Isn’t that a really sacred and good thing?”

“Wh, what…!”

“If it were a normal woman, it would be nice to give her to our Jagi, but…you guys were originally men, right? Aran is surprisingly sensitive about that kind of thing. So you guys will be providing free service in the brothel. Probably…a hundred people a day? Wouldn’t that be enough? Since you just have to fuck, there might be even more.”

 

It’s chilling just to listen to.

 

To change them into women and make them do prostitution.

Of course, the basic framework was what they had said to her, but her creativity was truly outstanding.

 

“Haa…haa….”

 

While she was rambling on like that, the transformation of the man…no, the woman, was complete.

Now she was completely in the form of a woman.

She could probably even get pregnant.

 

“Oh. Your body itself must be strong. Usually, they scream for a few hours. You guys are lucky.”

“Y…you bitch…!”

 

The leader gritted his teeth in anger, but couldn’t move easily.

He finally realized that the enemy was stronger than he thought.

 

‘It’s not easy to fight back with our weapons right now…if we had come just a few days later…!’

 

He truly resented the heavens.

 

“Now. Stand up. Slave.”

“Eu…eut….”

 

The woman stood up awkwardly.

 

“Kill the guy in front of you.”

“N, no…I don’t want to….”

 

She wanted to disobey the order, but immediately, intense pain ran through her entire body.

 

ㅡWarning. If you do not obey the master’s words, you will be dismantled in the worst case.

 

The AI that managed the Eternal Life Body was now completely subordinate to Seorae and forced obedience.

 

‘What is this….’

 

She…no, she couldn’t understand the situation at all.

From the circumstances, after being bitten by Seorae, she had become a woman and had to unconditionally obey orders, but she had no idea why that was happening.

 

‘Could it be…no…it can’t be…this far away…there’s no way.’

 

She completely denied one hypothesis that came to mind.

 

“Wh, what are you doing! Put your arm down!!”

“Huh?”

 

When she came to her senses, she was aiming her arm at those who ‘used to be’ her comrades.

 

“N, no!”

“It’s no use. If you get bitten by me, you’ll absolutely obey me. Now. Kill them quickly.”

 

Jing!

Cheolkeong cheolkeong

Chiijijik!

 

Her arm transformed wildly, summoning a small railgun that was built in as standard.

 

Pajijijijik!

 

A huge current flowed, and the gun barrel extended.

 

“Stop itttttt!!!”

 

More and more electromagnetic force flowed, and finally, super-acceleration.

The bullet flew at a speed several times faster than the speed of sound.

 

A huge light and recoil spread in all directions, and the bullet accurately hit its target, scattering flesh in all directions.

 

“….”

 

Everyone was silent.

 

A comrade had killed a comrade.

 

“A…aaaa….”

 

The woman fell into a panic and collapsed.

 

She didn’t want to,

She hated it,

She didn’t want to shoot,

 

Her body moved regardless of her will and killed her comrade.

 

“Good job. You just have to obey my orders like that from now on.”

 

Seorae smiled brightly.

It was an infinitely evil smile filled with murderous intent.

 

.

.

 

“Where on earth did Mother go?”

“I, I’m sorry.”

 

The maid flinched at Soi’s dissatisfaction.

 

“Ah, it’s not your fault. It’s just that she’s so strange.”

 

When she was the Emperor, she was so lazy that she never got up, but now she’s running around in all directions.

If she had visited, she should have stayed still.

 

“Haa…how long will it take to find Mother in this vast palace….”

 

“Kkeuaaaaaaaaak!!!!!”

 

 

“?!”

 

Just as she was sighing, a man’s scream came from over there.

 

“Th…this is…?”

 

It’s not a voice I know.

But if such a scream erupted inside the Imperial Palace, I should definitely go check it out.

 

“Let’s go there first.”

 

Soi moved quickly towards the source of the scream.

The palace was large, so even though she walked quite fast, it took well over ten minutes.

 

“…Here.”

“….”

 

Soi felt an incredibly ominous feeling.

 

-Seorae’s sudden visit.

-A man’s piercing scream.

 

Combining the two, she felt like Seorae would be there.

Moreover, that place is the building where the scientists Soi had taken in were conducting research.

 

 

And that premonition was all too accurate.

 

“…Mother?”
