Chapter 946: Side Story – Myster?y? Dungeon (2)

A dungeon exploration with my subordinate, Sung Taekyung, a company employee. No, a former company employee now.

As Seo Ok-hee took steps to go explore the Mystery Dungeon they had already cleared together twice, she couldn’t help but feel a strange mix of emotions inwardly.

‘Come to think of it, I guess I can’t really blame Yang Miyeon.’

After all, she too was giving in to her desires, anticipating the sex she would have with him inside the Mystery Dungeon.

Even without that, she had already reached the point of being teased by Sung Taekyung, who had become cocky even outside the dungeon today. She wondered in what way he would toy with her inside the dungeon, where her Awakened ability was restricted.

Seo Ok-hee felt a little afraid of the future that would arrive soon, yet deep down, she couldn’t suppress the fluttering excitement she felt imagining herself facing such a situation.

‘This is all Sung Taekyung’s fault. If only my first partner hadn’t been that guy.’

Choosing this guy as her partner when she first entered the Mystery Dungeon to explore might have been the problem.

If she had brought another male Hunter instead of this guy, it would have ended with perfunctory sex at best, and both she and the male partner would have returned having forgotten the memory of entering the dungeon, making it the same as if nothing had happened.

And she, having come out having lost her memory, would probably have judged that dungeon as dangerous and initiated its disposal, meaning this Mystery Dungeon exploration would never have happened again.

However, Sung Taekyung maintained his composure even in the situation where they were trapped in this strange Mystery Dungeon and had to have sex to escape. In fact, he even tried to pounce on her, the woman, so ultimately, that day’s sex became an unforgettable first experience for Seo Ok-hee as well.

‘And the way his attitude changed drastically the moment I said I’d erase the memory and leave….’

Seo Ok-hee discovered her own sexual limits precisely because of Sung Taekyung, who had raped her in that situation. Since she was someone who had always resolved everything with overwhelming power and information, being helplessly subjected to sex in a situation where she couldn’t use those abilities at all was a type of interaction the original Seo Ok-hee could never have experienced.

In her original world, she was essentially forced by him, who explored the Mystery Dungeon with her, to discover sexual fetishes she didn’t even know she possessed for her entire life.

Moreover, during the second exploration, she couldn’t use her Awakened ability right from the point of facing monsters, but that too was not a problem for Seo Ok-hee at all. Because ultimately, that restriction was a penalty that fully satisfied the ‘desire to do nothing’ she had been hiding deep in her heart.

Seo Ok-hee had managed parties where she had to play the key role in almost every expedition until she became an SSS-class Hunter in the company guild, so a party that ran on its own even if she did nothing actually brought her a sense of psychological stability.

Perhaps the creator of that artificial dungeon knew that and controlled her Awakened ability.

Seo Ok-hee had already figured out at least that the owner who created the dungeon she called the ‘Mystery Dungeon’ did not create it with malicious intent.

“…….”

Therefore, she had no choice but to accept today’s expedition with Sung Taekyung with a heart full of personal desire. Since she and Sung Taekyung had made an unspoken agreement to pretend that the things that happened inside the ‘Mystery Dungeon’ never happened between them, at least she could unleash her desires freely within it.

No, she didn’t necessarily have to unleash it herself. Just by moving her body into the dungeon, Sung Taekyung and the dungeon itself would move on their own accord to satisfy her desires.

Seo Ok-hee had figured out after just two expeditions that the general structure of the Mystery Dungeon was operating to satisfy the sexual desires of whoever entered it.

…although Seo Ok-hee hadn’t yet realized that the dungeon’s owner had changed to Sung Taekyung after the first expedition.

‘Will I be unable to use my Awakened ability as soon as we enter today, just like last time? The feeling of being protected by Sung Taekyung isn’t that bad, so it doesn’t really matter, but I wonder if I’ll just be making him suffer unnecessarily again this time.’

‘I quite liked those restraints I used last time. I wonder if I can use them again this time. Anyway, if I can’t use my Awakened ability, I can’t win against Sung Taekyung by strength, so it might not mean much, but having my limbs completely restrained is a separate issue.’

‘If we go in now, we won’t be able to come out for half a day inside, right? Anyway, since I know time flows slower inside than outside, it doesn’t matter much, but thinking about how Sung Taekyung won’t let me go for a long time during that half-day… I guess he’ll suffer a bit today too.’

While having these trivial thoughts, Seo Ok-hee was still quietly anticipating the play she was about to undergo inwardly.

And then, Sung Taekyung extended his hand towards her and had already climbed onto the warp gate heading towards the Mystery Dungeon.

“Let’s go in, Boss. I hope we can definitely uncover the true nature of the Mystery Dungeon today.”

“…….”

Sung Taekyung climbed onto the warp gate, saying words he didn’t mean while extending both arms towards himself.

Seo Ok-hee knew roughly what intention was behind his actions, so she too quietly took steps into Sung Taekyung’s open embrace.

-Thump.

“…Yes. That’s right. Spending time every time claiming to explore this dungeon with you is also a foolish act.”

For this moment alone, Seo Ok-hee chose to become a young girl and be held by a man.

And Sung Taekyung, knowing all her desires thoroughly, could satisfy Seo Ok-hee’s sexual urges well.

-Squeeze.

-Hug.

With the bodies of the two people possessing the same intention and purpose pressed against each other, they traveled into the dungeon riding the pure white warp gate.

An exploration of Belle’s dungeon… no, not the Mystery Dungeon, with President Seo Ok-hee.

While clearing Belle’s dungeon, which had changed into a form befitting the name ‘Mystery Dungeon’ after a long time, I could grasp throughout the process that Belle had made considerable preparations for this event.

“Monsters ahead, Boss! Stick close behind me!”

“…Ah, got it. Sorry, but please help me.”

First, creating a situation where she inevitably has no choice but to rely on me by taking away President Seo Ok-hee’s Awakened ability as soon as we enter.

Since the Boss showed quite a good reaction when I tried it last time, that element was implemented without fail this time too, and ultimately, President Seo Ok-hee ended up sticking close to me, relying on me ‘inevitably’ during this clearing as well.

Because making her realize the helplessness she feels in a situation where she can do nothing and the fact that she’s being protected by someone else was one of the Boss’s major fetishes.

Furthermore, in today’s dungeon clearing, as if deliberately emphasizing President Seo Ok-hee’s body, which couldn’t use her Awakened ability, many elements were created not just in the battles with monsters but in every aspect to emphasize her helplessness.

“If you run here without your Awakened ability, you’ll fall down. Can’t be helped, Boss. Let me hold you.”

“Must I… must I really be held in this pose? Not like a prince carrying a princess, but just normally, like carrying me on your back…?”

“There’s no time for such words, Boss. Hurry!”

“Ah, I know…”

Creating a wide trap that an ordinary person’s physical abilities would inevitably fall into, forcing President Seo Ok-hee to be held by me.

“I’ll block the monsters coming from the front! Meanwhile, Boss, please pull that lever!”

“Nnngh! Urk…?”

“Boss? I told you to pull the lever!”

“Th-this thing isn’t budging at all?! It’s not about pulling, maybe it needs to be operated in some other way…”

-Creak.

“It moves fine. It’s a bit stiff, but not to the point where it won’t budge, Boss.”

“S-sorry. I’m just a bit weak without my Awakened ability…”

Creating large levers or switches that President Seo Ok-hee couldn’t pull or push with her strength, making her realize her own weak physical abilities repeatedly.

“Hey, hey… You absolutely must not get away from me here…? If you suddenly disappear as a joke, you’ll die later…?”

“I know, I know. Besides, there’s no way I’d abandon you in this pitch-dark maze and go anywhere.”

“Right, right… And it’s a bit dark, can’t you increase the brightness a little…?”

-Click.

“Ahhh?! Hey, hey! Sung Taekyung! Stop joking around and turn on the light! Turn it on quickly!”

-Flick!

“Calm down a bit, Boss. It just turned off because the Holy Light’s duration ran out.”

“Haa, r-right… If it’s like that, then it can’t be helped…”

In the pitch-dark maze where no light entered, she had no choice but to rely solely on the light from my holy spell, so President Seo Ok-hee ended up walking with her arms wrapped tightly around my waist, matching my steps.

The traps, which emphasized the limitations of her ordinary body in various ways and created situations where she had no choice but to rely on me, had created a good atmosphere, so by the time the Mystery Dungeon clearing was finished, President Seo Ok-hee was completely sticking close to me, trying not to let go.

“Hoo, hoo, hoooo…”

-Hug.

…This feels quite nice, better than I thought.

The situation where the Boss, who always seemed charismatic and would never cry out in front of others, experienced her helplessness multiple times and ended up being held by me.

President Seo Ok-hee’s appearance, sticking closely to me while letting out anxious breaths, completely reversed the superior-subordinate relationship between her and me that existed in the guild representative’s office just a little while ago.

Not only the difference in physical strength, but also who was mentally relying more on whom.

Exploiting someone’s weakness when their mind is weak is a slightly cowardly act, but from the moment President Seo Ok-hee agreed to this Mystery Dungeon exploration, it was the same as her wishing for this situation.

After she completely became a helpless young girl, I took the Boss, who was clinging to me, and took steps towards the innermost part of the dungeon.

A familiar phrase, seen for the first time in a while, appeared, and a white door welcomed her.

「The Door That Won’t Open Without a Kiss」

“…….”

“…….”

The Boss and I stood before the door, quietly blushing, feeling somehow shy.
