Chapter 36: It’s More Arousing That Way

“Ugh… slurp… Honestly… I’m doing this for you, so go ahead and finish me off.”

“Still, it felt good, didn’t it?”

“Well…….it did, but…”

I made the panting Hilde suck my penis after sex.

It wasn’t really a reward for the match anymore… it was practically routine.

“Haaah, how can your cum still be this thick after you’ve finished multiple times?”

“Maybe it’s the island air?”

Hilde sucked around my glans before moving her tongue to the shaft.

The cum stuck to my penis was gradually being wiped away.

‘The angle at this moment is just fantastic.’

While her soft tongue work felt good,

the real highlight was the look in her eyes as she licked my penis and gazed up at me.

The sight of a beauty like Hilde clinging to me and serving.

Just looking at it filled me with a sense of conquest.

“Hooah, all clean now.”

Hilde smacked her lips before swallowing the cum down.

It was her sex habit, created by my command.

“Good job, my Hilde, good job.”

“I don’t like it when you treat me like a pet.”

She said that, but she didn’t pull away from the hand stroking her head.

Indeed, the way she acts like a child due to her possessiveness is the cutest. Hilde is.

“I’m happy because I can have you all to myself, Master. But is it okay to leave Seom-hwa-ssi behind?”

“It’s fine. Her body is in good enough condition to get up right now.”

She was simply tired from the new environment.

She’ll recover quickly just by eating properly and sleeping.

“But she was learning spear techniques, you know. It’d be a waste if her momentum is broken.”

“That doesn’t matter either. I never intended for Team Leader to learn spear techniques in the first place.”

“What?”

Hilde’s eyes widened at my words.

“She worked so hard, though?”

“Team Leader is someone who climbed to the top in society solely through her abilities and brains. However, her pure physical capabilities are low. She’s probably worse off than I was when I first arrived on the uninhabited island.”

If she had magic power, the story would be different.

But this isn’t the situation for that right now.

“For someone like that, even if she learns the spear now, it’ll take months to use it effectively in combat.”

“But then Seom-hwa-ssi won’t be any use as a combatant, will she?”

Ouch, that’s harsh.

But Hilde isn’t wrong.

Shin Seom-hwa is currently useless in a fight.

It’s quite ironic thinking about her presence in society.

‘She’ll improve quickly if she works hard at tasks. But it’s a waste to push an A-class Ability User like that.’

I know Shin Seom-hwa’s skills better than anyone.

And her abilities can definitely become a valuable asset.

“That’s why I’ll grant Team Leader an Ability Use Permit later.”

“Huh? But what if she tries to rebel after that…?”

“I can revoke the permit whenever I want, so it’s fine. More importantly-“

Swish!

I suddenly took Adol out of my inventory and threw it with all my might.

The bushes rustled along with the sound of a beast.

“I need Team Leader’s help to reliably kill those wolves.”

“Grrrrrr.“

Three wolves emerged from the bushes.

One of them had been stabbed by a knife, yet it looked ready to charge at any moment.

‘It’s still moving after taking that hit? Unlike goblins, they’re tough.’

I immediately used Appraisal.

▶ Ancient Wolf

Rank: E+

Level: 4

Skills: Bite, Pack Hunt

Description: A large wolf that lives in the forest and forms packs. While each individual wolf’s fangs are threatening, the most terrifying aspect is that they always hunt in packs. If you happen to be marked as prey while traveling, pray that you have other companions nearby to sacrifice.

As expected, their pure combat power is greater than a single goblin.

They are not opponents to be taken lightly.

“And three of them, too. If we’d been ambushed, it could have been dangerous.”

I took out an axe from my inventory.

It was the most usable weapon among the ones I’d drawn.

Hilde also held up her Valkyrie’s Spear, keeping the wolves in check.

“Isn’t this area a bit far from their territory? Why did they come all the way here?”

“The goblins are gone now. It probably means the wolves want to expand their territory.”

If that’s the case, things get a bit troublesome.

It means they have the capacity to do so.

‘Considering the Horned Rabbits were pushed back too. Are there more of them than I thought?’

I couldn’t just leave them be, both for map-making and safety reasons.

We were bound to clash eventually.

It was surprising, though, that they attacked first.

“Are you okay? Should I handle this alone?”

“I’m fine enough for this.”

The wolves didn’t charge recklessly.

Partly because Hilde kept them in check with her spear, but they also seemed to be cautiously assessing the situation.

‘I wish one of them had died from that earlier. My aim was slightly off because of the grass.’

The one hit by Adol was growling despite bleeding profusely.

Unlike goblins, these guys had sturdy bodies.

They also looked quite accustomed to hunting.

‘……Looks like whoever attacks first is at a disadvantage.’

With my current strength, I could win 100%.

But if possible, I wanted to win perfectly, without a single scratch.

‘Should I try to provoke them into attacking?’

As I switched my grip, I pretended to fumble and dropped the axe onto the ground.

The seasoned wolf didn’t miss the opening.

“Kruaaaaa!“

The creature opened its jaws and charged straight at me.

‘Telekinesis!’

The axe, which had sprung up momentarily, hit the wolf’s jaw.

Then, I reached forward.

“Return.”

Adol, still embedded in the wolf, flew straight into my hand.

I immediately thrust it into the wolf’s neck.

Crack, blood spurted out.

I had the distinct sensation of having crushed bone.

‘My strength has definitely increased.’

Before, even stabbing a knife into its neck wouldn’t have been instantly fatal.

The strength I’d raised via the status window was definitely showing its effects.

“Kruaaaaa!“

Another wolf, belatedly reacting, charged at me again.

Channeling telekinetic power into both my arms, I threw the recently killed wolf forward.

Its heavy body collided in mid-air, losing its balance.

Crack!

I grabbed the axe lying on the ground and brought it down.

‘The last one…’

The wolf that had been stabbed by the knife charged at me.

Just as it bared its fangs and lunged to pounce on me.

Fwahak!

Faster than that, Hilde’s thrown Valkyrie’s Spear pierced the wolf.

The creature, bleeding from its mouth, collapsed sideways.

“Nice assist.”

“Mmm, I’m sorry. I should have fought better.”

“No, it’s fine. I intended for them to attack me.”

Wolves have an instinct to hunt the weakest first.

I expected them to charge me immediately if I dropped my weapon.

‘Still, the fact that even beasts perceive me as weaker than Hilde is a bit irritating.’

I really need to level up diligently.

【You have defeated an Ancient Wolf!】

【Level Up.】

【Level Up.】

【You have defeated a formidable enemy for the first time!】

【Survival Quest satisfied.】

【Acquired 500P.】

“Oh, so wolves are treated as monsters too.”

Well, it would be unfair to consider goblins, who can bite through things instantly, as mere animals.

And a two-level increase at once, no less!

This was an unexpectedly good outcome.

‘For now, I’ll invest everything into Strength.’

▶ Status Window

Name: Kim Jinwoo

Level: 4

Strength: 19

Agility: 1

Durability: 1

Magic Power: 1

Potency: 1

(Stat Points: 0)

Traits: Golden Finger (A), Tool Crafting (E), Dismantle (F), Axe Mastery (E)

Skills: Gacha, Appraisal, Telekinesis

With a jump of 10 points at once, I could feel my increased power.

I shouldn’t lack strength anymore.

‘While other stats can be covered by Telekinesis or equipment, pure physical strength cannot.’

I then proceeded to store the wolf corpses in my inventory.

Not to mention the meat, the hides would also be quite useful.

“I ended up properly hunting them unintentionally.”

“I hope wolves taste better than goblins.”

-Ting!

【An Event Quest has occurred!】

[Sub Quest]

▶ Wolf Hunt

-Content: Having settled in the forest, you discovered that wolf packs inhabit it, and you were even attacked. If things continue like this, your life on the safe island might be threatened. Eliminate the wolf pack that challenged you and secure your safety!

-Reward: 1 Random Attack Skill

The quest popped up with a cheerful notification sound.

The content itself wasn’t much different from the previous goblin hunt.

‘But the reward is an attack skill?’

Would it be similar to the Telekinesis I obtained?

Either way, the more means of fighting, the better.

Ultimately, this gave me one more reason to clear out the wolves.

‘The question is how to fight them.’

Based on the information from Appraisal, their specialty is pack hunting.

If their numbers increase, their coordination could become threatening.

“As expected, Team Leader’s abilities will be necessary.”

The simplest way to wipe out such numbers.

It was time to utilize the A-class Ability User right beside me.

“Are Seom-hwa-ssi’s abilities really that great?”

“That’s part of it. But she’s more effective in group combat.”

I was even charmed by that aspect when I was a newcomer.

Thinking back, she was quite an amazing person in many ways.

“However, I can’t just give her abilities for free out of the blue. I plan to make the most of the current situation.”

Shin Seom-hwa genuinely believes I gained my abilities through massages.

In society, she’d never fall for such bullshit, but

here on this uninhabited island, she must be desperate enough to grasp at straws.

More importantly, I’ve built up quite a bit of trust with Shin Seom-hwa over time.

“Team Leader must be starting to lean towards it, don’t you think?”

Initially, she might have refused due to suspicion and reluctance.

But now, desperate, she probably doesn’t have the leeway to worry about such things.

“Anyway, let’s head back. It would be good to deal with the wolves quickly too.”

“Master, may I ask just one thing?”

“What is it?”

“Why do you still call Seom-hwa-ssi ‘Team Leader’?”

I answered as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

“Because that way is hotter when we do it.”

Hilde tilted her head slightly.

As royalty, Hilde might find it difficult to understand.

‘The pleasure of obtaining someone who was once far above me is the best.’
