Chapter 301 – Peeping Through the Knot Hole

I was flustered, but given the situation, I decided to follow Elquines’s advice for now.

“Alright. But it doesn’t have to be fresh, right?”

[Of course not. Please take out everything you have.]

“Yes. There’ll be quite a lot.”

Up until now, I had produced semen with Deborah without missing a single day.

The quantity was enough to save thousands of people, with plenty left over.

I didn’t know what she planned to do, but there would probably be no shortage.

I took out all of my semen, and Elquines absorbed it all with a simple gesture.

At the same time, bubbles seemed to rise all over her body, then she returned to her usual voluptuous beauty as if nothing had happened.

However, her brows furrowed, as if she wasn’t completely satisfied.

[Hmm… it’s a bit lacking.]

“What? Lacking? After absorbing all of that?”

[There was a lot of waste in the process of converting it into spirit power. I apologize, but please excuse me.]

“Huh? What— Ugh!”

Elquines’s hand grabbed my penis.

To be precise, she merely placed her hand over my pants, but the fact that I was in contact with a beautiful woman’s hand was enough to excite me.

I desperately tried to suppress my erection.

Flash!

The moment a light flashed from Elquines’s hand, I was engulfed by an immense feeling of exhaustion.

“Gasp!”

It felt like being drained of semen in a short time!

The semen stored in my testicles was instantly sucked into Elquines.

She didn’t even stop at just one go, continuously absorbing the semen that was regenerating in real-time, draining my testicles to my very soul.

Fortunately, the process didn’t last long.

[Die!]

Ifrit, having completed all preparations, glowed pure white, as if about to explode at any moment.

Then, Elquines’s hand detached.

[Regrettably, this is the limit. I won’t be able to stop it completely, but I can minimize the damage.]

“Yes. Please do.”

[You worked hard too.]

Elquines gave me a gentle smile.

A beautiful woman, ethereal and mysterious, smiling like that had a powerful effect.

Then, she extended her hand and stacked dozens of massive protective barriers around Ifrit.

The organic structure of the interconnected barriers worked to effectively block damage by cushioning and absorbing each other’s impacts.

[Hahahaha! It’s useless! Worms! All of you, dieee!]

Immediately after, Ifrit exploded.

Boom!

With a blinding light that made it hard to open my eyes, immense heat radiated beyond the protective barriers.

This meant that the barriers had been breached.

Fortunately, the heat wasn’t very strong, so no one seemed to have suffered serious damage, but the World Tree was the problem.

Exposed to Ifrit’s flames, the World Tree activated its self-preservation instinct.

Creak crack!

Millions of tree roots surged from all directions, binding my entire body.

Against such an absolute force that rendered resistance meaningless, I was utterly incapacitated.

Soon, my vision turned completely black.

*

My eyes opened.

The sight that greeted me the moment I regained consciousness was familiar, yet something I never wanted to see again.

Bang! Bang!

“Considering the severe nature of the crime and the lack of remorse, the defendant, Lee Hyunwoo, is hereby sentenced to 11 years in prison.”

I couldn’t believe it would show me this moment.

What did the World Tree want from me?

I didn’t know the reason, but one thing was certain: this was both a trauma for me and an opportunity to resolve my grudges.

Snap!

I easily snapped the handcuffs.

I could barely feel any magic power, and my body was that of an ordinary person, yet the flame residing in my heart was clearly palpable.

With just this, no one on Earth, where magic power was scarce, could stop me.

“The prisoner has broken free. Stop him!”

The police officers rushed to subdue me, but they were easily sent flying with a simple wave of my hand.

I soon arrived at the victim’s seat.

The woman, who had been staring at me with disgusted eyes, trembled in fear.

“I-I-I made a mistake. Please save me!”

“Do you know what you did wrong? Who told you to do it?”

“Executive Director Park Yushin of Eugene Entertainment! He promised to let me debut if I committed perjury!”

Eugene Entertainment?

Being in a fantasy world all this time and suddenly hearing such a modern term felt strangely fresh.

Besides, wasn’t that the company run by the son of the Eugene Group chairman?

So that’s why such a verdict came out, huh?

“Did their CEO rape you?”

“Y-Yes! He said he wanted to do outdoor rape play, so I agreed, but then this happened…!”

“Damn it. That ‘rape play’ is ridiculous.”

Surely Alisha isn’t that guy, right?

She used to commit so much rape that now that she became a woman, she wanted to experience it herself.

It was an absurd assumption, but I felt so out of touch with reality that I just wanted to blurt out anything.

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I learned important information.”

“It-It’s nothing. It’s only natural…”

“In that case, die now.”

Crunch!

I smashed the woman’s head in an instant.

Now, it was time to punish the pig who had forgotten his duty, consumed by greed.

“D-Don’t come closer! Do you know who I am?!”

Our eyes met, and he must have realized his own end, as he spouted pathetic threats.

I stood before the judge.

“You’re not even worth speaking to. This is just an illusion, but you’d better wait. I’ll definitely go back and kill you.”

“P-Pleas…”

Crunch!

I ripped out his heart without listening to his pleas for life.

My time was too precious to listen to such things.

Reality came first now.

‘I hope everyone is safe.’

As I worried about my lovers’ well-being and gasped for breath, the background slowly crumbled.

The World Tree must have deemed the illusion meaningless.

The problem was that the world I faced after waking from that illusion was yet another illusion.

“What?! Princess Regina is missing?!”

“Yes! She seems to have been kidnapped!”

And of all things, it was an illusion of the woman who hated me.

*

“Ah…”

Regina trembled at the environment she faced the moment she regained consciousness.

Before the childish voice even reached her ears, she realized the situation she was in.

The time of terror had arrived.

She didn’t know why she, who should have been in the World Tree, had returned to this moment. The important thing was that she now had to endure something terrible.

Moreover, there was no guarantee she would be rescued before being humiliated, as in the past.

Creak!

Just then, the door opened, and a familiar face appeared.

“Regina. You’re awake.”

“U-Uncle…”

“Hahaha! Surprised? Don’t be too scared, my dear. Uncle has no intention of being mean to our Regina. On the contrary, I’ll show you love.”

The repulsive man slowly approached.

Her heart pounded violently with every millimeter the distance between them closed.

The smile on his lips was disgustingly creepy and unpleasant.

Regina stepped back.

“D-Don’t come.”

“Why are you running away? There’s nowhere to run anyway.”

“D-Don’t come! Go away!”

She cried out as if she had seen a ghost, startled.

At the time, she was too young and scared to even utter a small sound, but perhaps because she had grown, she could put up this much resistance.

Perhaps displeased by that, her uncle’s face contorted horribly.

“Regina. Be quiet.”

He grabbed her slender limbs and pressed her down.

Her current body was merely that of a child, so she was easily subdued.

But Regina didn’t stop.

“Get lost! You pervert! Trash! Go away!”

She spat out harsh words, twisting her body, kicking, and continuing to struggle.

“Regina! Stay still! Uncle hurts too!”

Her uncle tried to persuade her with words but when she wouldn’t listen, he wiped away his disgusting smile and contorted his face into a terrifying scowl.

Splat!

A large palm mercilessly slapped the child’s cheek.

Regina staggered.

Even a single slap from an adult man was too dangerous for her delicate body.

Once she quieted down, her uncle, as if nothing had happened, gave her a disgusting smile and caressed Regina’s reddened cheek.

“Good girl, our Regina. Shouldn’t you listen to Uncle? Will you make me angry again?”

“Ugh…”

“Even your scared face is cute. Regina, can you grant Uncle one favor?”

No. She would not grant anything.

However, there was no possibility that this man would stop if she uttered such words.

“Uncle wants to become one with Regina. Is that alright?”

“N-No…”

*Whoosh—*

Her uncle’s hand came up.

Regina clamped her mouth shut. One slap had completely regressed her mind to her childhood.

A satisfied light appeared on her uncle’s face.

“What? I can’t hear you well. Can you answer again?”

“……”

Her mouth wouldn’t move at all.

As she merely gaped without being able to speak, her uncle made his own conclusion.

“It’s okay, then? Our Regina is a good girl, after all! Then, shall we take a look at Uncle’s magnificent penis?”

Her uncle unzipped his pants and revealed his penis.

Upon seeing it, Regina felt two emotions simultaneously.

‘Disgusting. And small.’

Contrary to his words about it being magnificent, her uncle’s penis wasn’t even half of Ruan Friuli’s.

It was smaller than average, in fact.

Perhaps his pedophilia was due to that paltry size.

Reading her true feelings from her honest expression, her uncle angrily grabbed Regina by the collar and yanked her roughly.

“Our Regina. Why is your expression like that?”

“……”

“You didn’t think it was small, did you? Don’t worry. Even this will be big for your vagina.”

Rip!

Her uncle began to tear Regina’s dress.

He seemed to never exercise, as his strength was terrible, making it difficult to tear properly, but as he persistently moved his hands, Regina’s bare skin gradually became exposed.

She squeezed her eyes shut.

‘Please come quickly.’

Anyone would do, as long as they pulled her out of this hell even a second sooner.

Finally, just before her private parts were revealed.

Boom!

With a loud crash, the door shattered, and bright light poured in.

“Who, who are you!”

Her uncle’s flustered voice rang out.

Carefully opening her eyes, Regina saw a face she hadn’t expected at all.

“So you were here? I had a hard time finding you.”

“Ruan… Friuli?”

Why him, of all people?

The man who would rape her in the future coming to save her past self—what kind of cruel twist of fate was this?

Regina bit her lip.

And yet, what made it so frustrating was that she couldn’t help but feel relieved seeing Ruan.

Because she knew that even if he was a rapist, he wasn’t trash who would assault without reason.

Because she ultimately believed he would save her.

That was so pathetic and miserable that tears flowed.

“Sob! Sniffle!”

She tried to hold it in, but once her emotions broke, they wouldn’t stop.

Ruan stared blankly down at her, then slowly walked forward.

Her uncle shrieked defiantly.

“You, you who are you! Get out now! Do you know who I am?!”

He tried to use his power to drive Ruan away, but that wouldn’t work.

Thud!

He kicked her uncle.

“Ugh!”

Her uncle screamed as he flew through the air and slammed into the wall.

Ruan glanced at him, then took off his outer garment and wrapped it around Regina.

“Don’t get the wrong idea. I’m helping you because I think I need to kill that guy to get out of here. Got it?”

“……I get it.”

“If you get it, stop crying and get up. I don’t like seeing a child act like that.”

Ruan left those words and headed towards her uncle.

Regina watched him cruelly crush her uncle, her lips twitching.

‘Thank you.’

It was a word she couldn’t bring herself to utter aloud.
