I Installed a Dating App and Girls from Another World Became Obsessed with Me.

Episode 39: Gate (4)

The Branch Manager’s office in the Korean branch of the World Hunter Association building.

Knock knock-

“Come in.”

The secretary, having received permission from the room’s owner, cautiously entered the Branch Manager’s office. In the secretary’s hands was a small document file.

“This is the investigation result of the man who exchanged a large quantity of D+ grade elite monster magic stones, as previously mentioned.”

“Hmm.”

Kang Cheol-ho, who had been looking through the documents with an indifferent expression, suddenly showed a flicker of interest.

“Is this true?”

“…Yes.”

The documents contained Kang Hyeon-u’s basic personal information and his movements over the past six months.

“A regular college student who was ordinary until a few days ago suddenly registers as a mage, and without ever leaving the city, he obtains and exchanges a large quantity of magic stones…”

As he initially suspected, if Kang Hyeon-u had cleared an undiscovered gate, there should have been records of him visiting secluded areas.

However, for the past six months, he had hardly ever left his college, part-time job, and home.

Furthermore, his movements on the day he completed the exchange were also strange.

“A church?”

“Yes, the church right next to our branch building. When we asked the priest there, he said the injuries were quite severe.”

“Injured by a monster?”

“It’s not certain, but circumstantial evidence suggests it’s highly likely.”

Being a mage wasn’t an easy profession that one could just pick up overnight, and he hadn’t even gone near places where undiscovered gates were likely to appear, yet he obtained a large quantity of elite magic stones and even sustained injuries that seemed to be from a monster…

How could it be this suspicious?

“Sir, Branch Manager, I have one more thing to report.”

“Hmm?”

The secretary handed Kang Cheol-ho another document file.

“Kang Hyeon-u, whom I just reported on, is one of the victims of the isolated gate that occurred around 7:49 PM last evening.”

“…Wasn’t one of the other victims the granddaughter of that Choi Yeong-ok woman?”

“Yes.”

“Huh.”

Kang Cheol-ho sensed that the situation was becoming complicated.

A suspicious man, whose identity was completely unknown, was trapped in an isolated gate with the sole heir of the Seongbuk Choi family.

Wasn’t that too much of a coincidence?

“Was the gate’s grade B?”

“Yes… Choi Yeong-ok repeatedly demanded re-examinations, and we even used precision measurement devices, but there were no changes.”

A 2nd circle mage and a 3rd circle mage couldn’t clear a B-grade gate even if they were reborn. Surviving a week without any preparation would also be impossible.

That was the conclusion he reached based on the data he had accumulated over decades in a senior position at the association.

The only possibility of survival lay in the existence of Kang Hyeon-u, a man shrouded in mystery.

Normally, Kang Hyeon-u’s dubious existence would have bothered him, but he also felt a desire to talk to him.

Kang Cheol-ho himself didn’t know the reason for this.

Two figures were walking in the middle of a snowy field swept by a fierce blizzard.

It was Kang Hyeon-u and Choi Hye-na.

Their condition, seen up close, was far from good.

Choi Hye-na had used up most of her mana in the sudden attack by the White Wolf pack, and Kang Hyeon-u had sustained a rather large wound on his arm.

He had roughly stopped the bleeding, but it was only a temporary measure.

As time passed, Kang Hyeon-u’s complexion worsened. Despite trying to apply maximum pressure, the cloth he used couldn’t completely stop the dark crimson blood from seeping out.

Eventually, Kang Hyeon-u staggered and collapsed onto the snow.

“Are, are you okay?!”

Choi Hye-na, startled, rushed to Kang Hyeon-u and was shocked by his much worse-than-expected condition.

The cloth tied around his arm had long since lost its function as a bandage.

Kang Hyeon-u’s face was contorted in pain, and his lips were blue; it was clear that he would be in danger if he didn’t receive proper treatment immediately.

“It’s nothing.”

“Don’t pretend! Why didn’t you say anything until you were in this state!”

“…”

Kang Hyeon-u didn’t say anything.

Or rather, he didn’t have the strength to make excuses.

“Getting out of here is the priority.”

According to Choi Hye-na, White Wolves formed packs with even more members than White Yetis.

The pack they encountered had about 10 wolves; they couldn’t assume we were lucky enough to encounter a small pack.

There was no telling when another pack of White Wolves would come after them.

‘…The shop isn’t resetting either.’

After defeating the Ice Bear and the White Wolf pack, his coins had surpassed 3,000, but the non-resetting shop had nothing useful for the current situation.

With Iris and Cheon Yeo-hwa’s matching time still remaining, the only option left was to try a new match.

However, that was also a gamble. He couldn’t choose his matching partner.

‘Should I specify the matching partner’s profession as a doctor?’

That would increase the probability, but it still wasn’t guaranteed.

But it was better than dying from excessive bleeding in the snow, so he decided to keep that option in mind.

“Use this for pressure.”

Choi Hye-na took off her fur coat and handed it to him.

It was tattered from the fight with the Ice Wolf pack.

“Take it quickly. If the bleeding doesn’t stop, you’ll die, and I’ll die from the monsters that follow.”

It wasn’t very convincing when she said it while shivering.

“…Alright.”

Of course, he didn’t have the luxury to refuse.

He cut the fur coat into pieces. Only after applying strong pressure with the cut cloth did he feel the bleeding start to subside.

“Phew…”

He felt a little better.

There was no dramatic improvement in my condition, but just the fact that the bleeding was stopping made him feel much better than before.

However, the biting cold, which felt like it would cut off his toes, hadn’t improved at all.

He had almost no mana left, so he couldn’t warm his body with it, and Choi Hye-na, who had taken off her tattered fur coat, was also turning pale from her thin clothing.

At this rate, they were both destined to freeze to death.

They couldn’t afford to hesitate anymore. They had to do anything to survive.

“…Are you serious?”

“What? Do you want to freeze to death?”

“…”

Choi Hye-na frowned at the hideout I had painstakingly created.

“…You pervert.”

The small hole dug into the snow under a slightly inclined slope was barely large enough to fit a small, one-person tent.

Naturally, it was too small for two people.

That meant we had to stick close to fit inside.

“…We’ve already done it once, haven’t we?”

“Is that even the same thing? Huh?”

Choi Hye-na’s sharp gaze was piercing.

But we had no choice.

With no sign of a shallow cave like the one we found earlier, setting up a tent on the open ground would leave us vulnerable to monster attacks.

It was better to cover the entrance with snow, leaving only a small breathing hole, and stay inside.

Besides, if we didn’t have the tent, we would have had to lie down on the snow as a blanket, so I had no particular complaints.

Of course, even though the tent’s interior automatically warmed up, it was far from enough to combat the ice-coldness of our bodies, which could lead to us catching a cold at any moment.

Both Choi Hye-na and I knew that very well.

-Then what do we do?

What else? We had to hug naked again.

“Are you all undressed?”

“…”

There was no reply.

Realizing that meant yes, I quickly undressed, blocked the entrance with snow, and entered the tent.

Inside the tent, Choi Hye-na sat, naked, covering herself.

“…Just lie down.”

I did as she said.

As soon as I lay down, Choi Hye-na climbed on top of me.

“What are you staring at…! Close your eyes!”

It seemed like I’d get hit if I didn’t comply.

Reluctantly, I closed my eyes, and Choi Hye-na, after glancing around cautiously, quietly snuggled into my arms.

I felt the soft touch of her breasts.

“…If you touch me, I’ll kill you.”

How much time had passed?

My heavy eyelids opened on their own.

It was very dark, and Choi Hye-na was sound asleep in my arms.

She looked very beautiful asleep.

‘It’s warm…’

Was it morning outside? Or evening?

I wasn’t sure.

I could only hear the occasional sound of the blizzard.

I was hungry, but it was best to endure here as long as possible.

Moreover, considering that mages were a rear-guard class and Choi Hye-na was a typical researcher type who stayed locked in the magic tower’s workshop, her stamina must have already reached its limit.

It was best to let her rest as much as possible while she could.

‘Come to think of it, my condition is better than I expected.’

I had stopped the bleeding, but since I hadn’t received a blood transfusion, I thought my condition wouldn’t be very good even after sleeping.

However, my condition was much more normal than I expected.

Was it thanks to mana?

I didn’t know the details, but I thought it was fortunate and brushed it off.

“…She’s sleeping well.”

Even her sleeping posture exuded the feeling of a noble’s daughter.

Even though she must have been uncomfortable sleeping on top of me, she didn’t even murmur in her sleep.

“Dad…”

Just as I was admiring Choi Hye-na’s sleeping face, I heard her mumbling, calling for her dad in a tiny voice.

Come to think of it, she called for her dad in her sleep last time too.

Choi Hye-na’s complexion gradually worsened as she mumbled in her sleep.

She even started sweating cold, as if she were having a nightmare.

“Hng, hng…”

Wondering what kind of dream she was having, I saw tears welling up in her eyes, and I wondered if I should wake her up.

While I was pondering, I remembered what the head nun at the orphanage used to do for me whenever I had nightmares.

I gently stroked Choi Hye-na’s back.

As slowly and leisurely as possible.

Choi Hye-na’s complexion improved with the warm stroking of her back.

She looked much more comfortable than before.

However, there was a problem.

It was already difficult to endure hugging Choi Hye-na, who was naked, but stroking her smooth and soft skin was driving me crazy.

‘…She’s asleep, so it should be okay, right?’

Considering that I had carried her through the monster hunts, protecting her from the front, wouldn’t I deserve a small reward?

Besides, I had taken down half of the White Wolves by myself, so this was fair compensation.

I slowly moved my hand down from her back.

Grab…!

Her firm and large buttocks filled my palm.

I gently stroked them, enjoying the sensation.

Fortunately, Choi Hye-na still seemed to be enjoying herself, sleeping with a happy smile.

Seeing her sleeping so deeply, I decided to take it a step further.

I slightly adjusted my position and placed my already throbbing erection between Choi Hye-na’s legs.

My erection, almost touching her vagina, was screaming to thrust into her womb and fill it with thick semen.

Of course, I wanted to do that too, but now wasn’t the time.

With both hands gripping her buttocks, I rubbed Choi Hye-na’s vagina against my erection.

Squish, squish—

The pre-ejaculate that had leaked out acted as a lubricant between my erection and her vagina.

I couldn’t move as freely as I wanted due to the limited space, but it was still quite enjoyable.

It was a tantalizing sumata, but my lust, heightened by the continuous battles with monsters, was reaching its peak.

My hands, caressing Choi Hye-na’s buttocks, became even more daring.

I fondled her buttocks as if they were squishy jelly, and I gently touched her vagina with my fingertips.

“Ah, ahng… ahh…”

Choi Hye-na let out soft moans from the continuous caresses of my erection and fingers.

Reaching my limit, I started moving my hips to hasten the climax.

Enjoying the increasingly slick and moist sensation of her vagina, which had likely produced more fluids, I moved my hips.

Burp, burrrrrst!!

“Kuh…!”

The semen that had been building up for days erupted at once.

The semen I released landed on Choi Hye-na’s buttocks like a topping.

It was a considerable amount.

As I pondered the cleanup with a clear head,

“Ugh…”

Choi Hye-na woke up with a strange moan.

Choi Hye-na’s purple eyes, now awake, turned towards me.

Her eyes, still drowsy, were momentarily unfocused, but then, noticing something strange, she glanced at her buttocks, and her expression twisted into something indescribably ferocious.

“…Did our daughter sleep well?”

“Die.”

It took Choi Hye-na only 0.1 seconds to give me a murderous look and start to strangle my neck.
