13.

The “Operation to Capture Kang Jin-young,” which Kang Mi-young created on the spot, had a shaky start.

The plan was extremely simple.

1. Find Kang Jin-young.

2. Persuade (physically).

3. Escape.

4. Profit!

It was a really perfect plan.

At least that’s what Lee Seong-han thought.

But life didn’t always go smoothly.

As the gate became more eroded, the surrounding environment changed into something like a large temple.

A mixture of reality and fantasy.

Lee Seong-han looked at Kang Mi-young.

“ Major, the wound has opened. Even if there is [Regeneration], emergency measures─”

“Okay. Okay.”

Kang Mi-young, who was walking next to me, snorted coldly.

“I don’t need any unnecessary help. If you’re going to leave anyway, it’s better not to give me affection.”

[Kang Mi-young’s ‘delusion of persecution’ is triggered.]

[In any situation, assume the worst-case scenario, an extreme catastrophe, and act accordingly.]

Lee Seong-han was now terrified.

Again.

The delusion of persecution erupted again.

“I thought about it and that’s what happened. I don’t know what kind of relationship Kang Jin-young has with that kid, but since they’ve been together for a long time, there must be some kind of connection.”

This was already the fifth time.

At first, things went well.

But as time went by, rationality was reaching its limits.

When I was lying in bed, I suddenly remembered Kang Jin-young gossiping about me, saying, “Sister “ is mentally weak.””

‘No, I didn’t know it would be this bad. You explain it so poorly. Seriously.’

Lee Seong-han sighed as if he was tired.

It was hard to accept that he was crying, making a fuss, and throwing a tantrum because of his delusions of persecution.

I think I know why men don’t get entangled.

“Major. I don’t go to places that catch living people. And you are currently in a state of mental disorder. You need to take a neutralizer.”

“That’s funny.”

“It’s true.”

“Such inferior monsters can control my mind. Your Majesty. Do you want to receive even a little bit of it in these times?”

Lee Seong-han coldly dismissed it.

Even if I said the right thing, it just went in one ear and out the other, and what I could do was limited.

“Coming again.”

“ is visible.”

“This time, it seems a little different. It’s not Eros’s group.”

“That’s for me to decide.”

[Kang Mi-young’s ‘arrogance’ is triggered.]

[Ignore the opinions of others.]

Oh my.

Lee Seong-han turned his gaze back to the hallway.

I’ve completely forgotten which wave it was.

[Auto Battle] Thanks to this, I was able to level up easily and my abilities were gradually growing, but the mental fatigue was hard to handle.

‘I wonder if I can close the gate.’

Well, I guess I couldn’t be sure anymore.

It was a level of difficulty that even an S-class hunter could handle. However, due to the large amount of material and mental attacks, it was common for them to stop after taking a few steps.

A blurry new shape appeared in the darkness.

Naked clothing and a whip.

Pink skin and goat horns.

A wicked smile.

‘Is this a succubus?’

Lee Seong-han couldn’t help but look embarrassed.

It’s definitely a succubus… … .

As far as he remembered, it wasn’t like that.

Lee Seong-han opened the information window.

[Pure Love Succubus Lv. 19]

– A monster that feeds on human desires and love. Its type is demonic. It mainly observes sticky sexual acts and erotic situations between young lovers.

– It judges purity by bizarre standards. It is incomprehensible to human common sense.

– I currently think that ‘Obsessive Rape Stalking Pure Love’ is the perfect pure love.

Lee Seong-han clicked his tongue.

What, do you not have parents?

That thought suddenly occurred to me.

“Are there kids like that?”

Originally, a succubus was a monster that seduced men and made them do magic.

But those guys just enjoyed watching.

That too, a pure play.

It was a bit twisted though.

He was clearly different from the guy I met just before.

I wish we could communicate.

Some monsters were friendly to humans at times.

Of course, only a very small number.

This was the first time I had ever seen such a discovery. Judging from its nature, this guy didn’t seem normal either.

“I… …Teacher?”

Lee Seong-han put away his sword and stepped forward.

The succubus standing ahead looked at Lee Seong-han and smiled faintly.

Although the attire was obscene, the tone was innocent and pure.

“Oh my, I didn’t fall for you for nothing. Your face is pretty. And your body is muscular.”

“Yes?”

I asked again because I thought Lee Seong-han had misheard.

The succubus interrupted her words.

“Oh my gosh. What’s going on?”

“Haa. Let me pass. I’m saying this because I think we can understand each other. It would be better if you just step aside.”

“Of course! I was going to step aside. But there’s a condition.”

“Condition?”

The succubus smiled and pointed at Kang Mi-young.

“If you get rid of that bug first, I’ll let you pass by yourself!“

widely-

Finally, I flicked my hand. A refreshing sound and a pink wave flowed out.

“Where on earth is this bitch aiming for the title of first lady?!”

[Sun-ae-bo Succubus used ‘Perception Alteration’ on ‘Kang Mi-young’.]

[If not dealt with quickly, Kang Mi-young’s perception change will be permanent.]

The succubus created a black magic wand and waved it around.

“Show me your innocence!”

Kang Mi-young seemed to sense something was wrong and rushed over.

“, how dare you touch this Kang Mi-young’s head─”

The mental magic took effect and a heart symbol appeared above Kang Mi-young’s head.

Kang Mi-young screamed softly, holding her forehead as if trying to resist.

The succubus burst into laughter.

“Destroyer of purity! Die!”

“Mark of the Succubus”

That decadent spell is working.

Lee Seong-han tried to move forward, but his body froze.

The whip was wrapped around his entire body.

“You stay still.”

Fuck.

This gate is a perfect match for Kang Mi-young.

No, it was a counter pick.

Kang Mi-young stuck her sword into the floor and held it so tightly that the handle cracked to support her body.

“Ugh, all of a sudden. My body is burning up… … I’m dizzy.”

Hahaha.

Rough breathing.

“Hey, stay away. You’re hot. Ugh, no. Just a little closer.”

A faint smile appeared on Kang Mi-young’s lips.

My eyes were gradually opening.

‘Damn. The Major doesn’t have any [mental barriers] so it’s more like adding, not less.’

Lee Seong-han checked the whip.

A pinkish hue swirled around.

It must be magic.

Bam───!

“Oh, oh, oh, oh.”

At that moment, a dagger was stabbed squarely into the succubus’ shoulder.

[Auto Battle] was activated.

The succubus flapped her small wings and scribbled on the floor.

Crashed to the ground.

[Since the caster has been incapacitated, the perception change granted to ‘Kang Mi-young’ is removed.]

“Ugh! Let’s see!”

The succubus fled, her wounds still on her head.

Lee Seong-han did not chase after her but checked on Kang Mi-young’s condition.

“Are you okay?!”

“I’m sorry… … .”

Kang Mi-young spat while covering her head.

If you keep doing this, you’ll fail.

Lee Seong-han also knew.

Even if we put aside the fact that the number of people is limited.

There are even monsters like that wandering around.

Even the one who had to be dragged away was the wizard of Namsan in the National Intelligence Service.

In particular, I hated even imagining failure.

Kang Jin-young’s flirtatious gaze was so murderous.

Becoming a father was a death wish.

* * *

It had been two hours since the search began. I had memorized the geography of the Armed Forces Capital Hospital.

Lee Seong-han finally found Kang Jin-young’s signal.

I activated [Reconnaissance] while climbing the stairs, but suddenly something specific happened,

It was located on the upper floor.

Lee Seong-han and Kang Mi-young trudged up to the rooftop via the emergency stairs.

The emergency stairs did not lead to the roof.

It’s been a while since the building structure changed due to several facility expansions and various regulations.

“Your Majesty. Can you sense Kang Jin-young’s location now?”

Lee Seonghan activated [Reconnaissance] in response to Kang Miyoung’s question. Nothing was caught. Except for a few monsters.

Something was identified as a red dot in the distance.

It looked dangerous at first glance.

“I don’t feel it. But I guess I sense something much more important.”

“Core group.”

“Yes, the heart of the gate, the innermost part that helps keep it open.”

“The enemy is in the front line.”

Kang Mi-young pulled out her sword.

Iron skewer.

candlestick.

crossbow.

Even a hammer.

“Kihehehehe!”

“Pure love, give me pure love!”

Eros, of course, and the succubi we met earlier appeared.

Shit. Lee Seong-han didn’t know why the gate had appeared, but he thought that if there were a ton of monsters like that, he’d be better off dead.

The quality and level of the monsters were also different.

It is difficult to handle it all at once.

“The priority is to release the gate. Move.”

“Okay.”

When Lee Seonghan opens his eyes wide, his vision changes.

The eyes turned blue.

[Activate ‘Auto Battle’.]

‘It’s you again.’

[Apply ‘Super-Reconnaissance (SSS)’ to refine combat information.]

Let’s make tea.

Eros, identified by a red semicircle. Various pieces of information were gathered and piled up.

[Highlights damage highlights using accumulated data.]

“Your Majesty. I see something.”

“Yes.”

Each body part was divided into different colors.

Somewhere it’s blue, and somewhere else it’s red.

Most major organ parts are a bright green color.

It was probably a weakness, but it was dangerous to go forward alone.

‘There are too many of them. It would be possible to deal with them 1 on 1.’

Roughly speaking, there are 10 of them.

Actually, I just brushed that aside.

Lee Seong-han holding a greatsword in both hands.

He took a sharp guard stance.

“… … Major. Over there.”

“Boss monster.”

[‘King Eros’ detects intruders.]

[The ‘Favorability Quest’ has been updated.]

[『Emergency Quest』 has been updated.]

[Movement of ‘Kang Jin-young’ has been detected.]

“If only this would work.”

Lee Seong-han laughed bitterly.

Win.
