Chapter 23

The Hero Fucks the Magic Swords.

Episode 23: I’m Here To Sign A Contract.

We went to the headquarters of the Hero Association after our outing.

It could be seen as a kind of public institution that handled various tasks related to heroes’ work.

However, it could not be called an ordinary facility, considering the enormous amount of money and scale it handled.

After all, it is an institution that manages and supports active heroes.

‘I never thought I would come here.’

Only awakened individuals and association staff are allowed in here.

I, who barely handled weapons, had no reason to come here.

But today, not only did I come confidently, but also all eyes were focused on us.

“Wow, who is that woman? Is she perhaps an association staff member?”

“Hey, can’t you tell just by looking? It’s a Magic Sword.”

“Then, is the man next to her the contractor? Wow, no matter what rank he is, he’s living the good life.”

The Hero Association did not grade people like in novels or comics.

There were such attempts before, but they were banned due to discrimination issues.

Of course, they didn’t assign numerical grades, but the difference in skill and pay was clear.

It’s like the difference between a neighborhood lawyer and a large law firm lawyer.

Anyway, the grade mentioned here referred to Kalia’s grade as the Magic Sword.

‘Even within the association of awakened individuals, being the Magic Sword gets this much attention. If they find out the grade, it will really be chaos.’

Of course, in the past, my reaction wouldn’t have been much different.

That much, the Magic Sword and its contractor were objects of envy.

Money, power, and if lucky, even the opportunity to get the most beautiful woman.

“Phew, why is everyone staring so much?”

Moreover, if that Magic Sword was a beautiful woman with such an amazing body, there’s no need to say more.

Even without being the Magic Sword, her appearance, chest, and hips naturally drew attention.

Men tried not to be conscious of it, but women often openly looked and admired.

‘It must be a fantastic body even from a woman’s perspective.’

Kalia’s grade was a whopping S-rank.

It’s not strange that she became a huge topic just by existing.

Of course, it’s not a pleasant phenomenon for me, who had to control the Magic Sword.

Still, being the subject of envious gazes wasn’t a bad feeling.

It really felt like being a famous model or celebrity.

‘…Since it’s a rare opportunity, let’s show off a bit more.’

That might also help with the training.

I stretched out my arm and naturally embraced Kalia’s waist.

In that state, I lightly massaged her smooth thigh.

“Ugh… What are you doing?”

“I just felt like touching.”

“Phew, you’re such a pervert.”

Kalia only glared at me but let me touch her.

Considering the bold acts we had done before, this much didn’t seem to bother her much.

‘Rather, the reactions around us are more amazing.’

Although they tried not to look openly, I could tell that gazes were focused on us.

Sneaking glances at Kalia’s face, chest, and hips.

Their eyes filled with envy, fixated on the thigh I was freely massaging.

I wouldn’t be surprised if someone was fantasizing about Kalia right now.

‘Is this the life of an alpha male? It’s definitely not bad.’

Of course, it’s just the beginning.

I headed straight to the counter.

“Excuse me, I’m here to register with the association.”

“What? Oh, you came to register, not to report?”

The staff at the counter glanced at Kalia next to me.

They seemed surprised that an awakened person with a Magic Sword was here to register.

“Actually, I met the Magic Sword after awakening. Since it’s our first time, we need to register.”

“Hah! I see! So you haven’t registered the Magic Sword yet?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Could you please wait a moment?”

The staff quickly stood up and ran somewhere.

Although they seemed to be in a hurry, I understood why.

With a Magic Sword involved, it’s understandable for them to be in a rush.

The staff soon returned, bowing deeply and apologizing for the wait.

“Thank you for waiting! For registration, you need to undergo some comprehensive tests. If it’s okay, could you cooperate? You can start right away!”

“Oh… Isn’t there usually a long waiting time for awakened person tests?”

“If you are a contractor accompanying a Magic Sword, facilities and regulations are set to give you priority for testing.”

Indeed, this was another benefit of having a Magic Sword.

Considering how rare and valuable a Magic Sword was, the association would want to secure one by any means.

Magic Swords had no nationality by default.

It’s not uncommon for talents to be exported to countries like the U.S. or China.

Though I had no plans to go overseas.

“Then, please proceed right away.”

“Yes, thank you!”

We followed the guide to the examination room.

After basic physical and fitness tests, we were sent to a large space.

It seemed like the place for the actual skill test.

‘I need to show some level of skill here.’

The treatment we’d receive in the future depended on this evaluation.

Though being a new Magic Sword already guaranteed good treatment.

Still, it’s better to get as much as possible.

Money and power would greatly help with future plans.

-We’ll start the test now. If it gets hard or you feel strained, please raise your hand and let us know.

As soon as the voice ended, mannequins popped out.

It seemed the test involved taking these down.

Old-fashioned but effective method.

“Kalia, can you transform into the Magic Sword?”

Kalia narrowed her eyes and looked at me at my suggestion.

Then, she nodded as if she had no choice.

“…Okay. Even if it was forced, you’re still my contractor.”

A more compliant reaction than expected.

It felt real that her favorability towards me had increased.

The original Kalia would have rejected such a proposal outright.

‘If it came down to it, I could use my command authority, but it seems a bit wasteful to use it here.’

A light flowed from Kalia’s body, and she soon transformed into a sword that landed in my hand.

Her clothes, bra, and panties fell to the ground as a result of her body transforming into a sword.

It felt a bit naughty because it was warm.

‘Doesn’t seem like there’s an automatic clothing handling function like in magical girl comics.’

Anyway, a white sword was now in my hand.

It was incredibly light and sharp despite its size.

Furthermore, I could feel Kalia’s magic power flowing throughout my body as the user.

This is the power of an S-rank Magic Sword.

Even before swinging it, I could tell how amazing it was.

‘No wonder once you use a Magic Sword, you can’t go back to an ordinary one.’

In this state, I felt like I could do anything.

I swung the sword, which was Kalia, while adjusting my strength appropriately.

Kalia’s attribute was light, specifically a Magic Sword specialized in attack.

-Kwaaang!

With each swing, light burst out, sweeping away everything around.

Honestly, it was almost boringly simple.

As I continued to swing Kalia, the test ended without any difficulty.

“…Is it over?”

-Yes, yes! Thank you for your hard work! You’ve completed the final stage!

Just from the voice, I could tell they were surprised.

If the staff here were testing, they must have seen quite a few awakened ones and Magic Swords.

Even so, this result seemed quite astonishing.

‘No, actually, they know better because they’ve seen so many that this is extraordinary.’

If this was the final test… Kalia must indeed be strong.

To think I could freely have my way with such a woman at home, and even grope her breasts and buttocks while walking.

It’s astonishing, but I had been doing quite incredible things.

‘Well, it’s just the beginning since there are still many Magic Swords to conquer.’

After that, we continued with more detailed tests.

It seemed they were looking at various factors like magic output and Kalia’s attributes.

And as expected, the result was S-rank.

“Con-Congratulations! The test result is S-rank! This is my first time seeing one in person.”

“Thank you.”

With this, Kalia was officially certified as an S-rank Magic Sword.

It’s not just about the grade; the treatment in the industry would be guaranteed to be top-notch.

Of course, I had various things to do as per my plan.

But I wouldn’t have to worry about being ignored or treated unfairly anywhere.

“And could you please keep this result a secret for now?”

“Oh, yes. I promise there will be no unauthorized media exposure.”

Only then did I nod and leave.

But it didn’t mean I went straight home.

Instead, I sat in a chair at the association for a while.

“…What are you doing? Didn’t you finish what you came here for?”

“No, technically, it’s just beginning.”

Kalia looked at me strangely, but I waited.

And soon, a man approached.

“Excuse me, are you Mr. Si-hyeon?”

“Yes, I am. Which guild are you from?”

The man seemed momentarily startled by my confident attitude.

But soon, he smiled and handed me a business card.

“It seems you already knew. You are indeed a big shot. I am from the Ganglim Guild. The Guild Master would like to meet you personally.”

“I see.”

I pretended to be relaxed, but inwardly, I was thrilled.

I was worried that another guild might come first.

But the one I wanted approached just as I hoped.

We arrived at a large building in the man’s limousine.

Leaving Kalia in the guest room, I headed alone to the top floor where the Guild Master’s office was.

‘I can’t believe I went straight to the Guild Master’s office of such a large guild.’

To be precise, it’s called the Guild Master’s office, but often referred to as the President’s office for convenience.

And the term President wasn’t entirely wrong either.

Considering the wealth and influence of a large guild, it’s comparable to a large corporation.

No, given the existence of gates and dungeons, they were even more crucial as direct national power.

Heroes immediately supplied resources to the businesses run by large corporations.

“Phew.”

Everything was proceeding as planned so far.

I felt a bit nervous as I knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

At the same time, a clear voice responded as if waiting.

I opened the door and entered.

Inside, a beautiful woman was waiting for me.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Si-hyeon. I am Sain, the Guild Master of Ganglim Guild.”

This woman’s name was Sain.

She was the Guild Master of one of Korea’s largest guilds, Ganglim Guild, and an A-rank Magic Sword.

And my second target.
