NOVEL NEXT Chapter 111
“Ah.”
As soon as I came to my senses, the only thought that came to mind was that I was screwed.
What the hell did I just experience with the Four Fairies? That crazy woman hypnotized me and pulled my seed out like it was a game.
How the heck am I supposed to deal with this situation?
“Are you awake now?”
“Gah!”
I was startled by a whisper. Looking over, the Four Fairies were lying right next to me. We were entangled naked in bed, like a man and woman who had just had an intimate moment.
“Why are you so surprised…? Is it weird that your mother is next to you?”
“No, that’s not it! I just woke up suddenly!”
“Hehe, is that so?”
This is driving me insane!
“Did it feel good?”
“…”
“Should I do it again next time?”
Wait, does she mean she’ll pull my seed out again like that? Shivering in horror at that thought, I noticed the Four Fairies’ voice suddenly became cold.
“Ah, why are you hesitating? You enjoyed the sight of your mother, the number one beauty of the Central Plains, in such a lewd state, didn’t you?”
“No, that’s not it!”
“Could it be because of your wives…?”
What?!
“Come to think of it, my son has two wives.”
As soon as she mentioned the two wives, I felt my blood run cold. Is she seriously threatening me out of nowhere? I need to keep my head straight. If I respond poorly, they could be in danger.
“Right, there are two.”
“I’m so happy to have two daughters-in-law. But…”
“…”
A foreboding atmosphere creeps in.
“Why didn’t you introduce your wives to me?”
Introduce them?!
“Should I go visit them…?”
No, that can’t happen!
“Later! I’ll introduce them properly, Mom!”
“Later, you say?”
“Yes!”
“Hehe, then I’ll be waiting.”
Did I just barely escape danger?
She seems convinced as she nods her head with a smile. From what I can tell, she doesn’t seem like she’d come looking for them… which means I will ultimately have to introduce them.
How the heck do I introduce this monstrous witch as my mother? Serving the Four Fairies as my mother? That’s the kind of statement that would get me beaten to a pulp.
“But, son.”
Suddenly, the Four Fairies placed her hand on the blanket.
“Gah!”
That hand was on my groin!
“Do your wives do this kind of thing well?”
“Why are you asking that?!”
“I can ask! If I’m to see grandchildren, I need to know if this is done well, right?”
Grandchildren.
Normally, that would be a warm and joyful thought. An elderly person reminiscing happily about their grandchildren. That’s what’s considered normal.
“…”
But when the Four Fairies said “grandchildren,” it felt chilling and deeply unsettling. What in the world is she implying by bringing up grandchildren?
For this witch, children mean nothing. Just equal objects for her to experiment and play with.
“Ugh… well, I’m not ready to have kids yet as I’m lacking in martial achievements.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes.”
I shouldn’t dwell on this topic any longer. If that crazy woman decides to demand grandchildren, who knows what she might do?
“Anyway. Mother. Are you planning to use my seed for research?”
“Hehe, yes.”
As the Four Fairies waved her hand, a bottle brimming with a white liquid appeared in the air. And it looked warm too.
“Since you produced so much, this should be enough.”
“…”
“This seed has many secrets within it. Your mother will use it well. Oh, and if I need more later, I’ll just pull it out, so keep that in mind.”
“…Yes.”
Having said that, the Four Fairies got up.
Though she was still naked, she cast a spell and her body was enveloped in mysterious flames, creating clothes that wrapped around her.
“Lastly, I want to know a bit more.”
“What is it?”
I also got up and put on my clothes.
“Son. Are you training hard?”
“Yes. Always working hard.”
I’m training in various forms, techniques, and even martial arts, along with practical battle experience to enhance my skills.
“That’s excellent. Still, I want to see more, so keep improving.”
“Improving?”
“Yes. Only those with high cultivation can achieve certain things. I’m looking forward to seeing the results when you combine that with your innate magic.”
I think the same way.
“You see, helping you improve is not something your mother can do. It’s easy to get you the essence, but simply having enough inner strength doesn’t mean you have high cultivation. This part is something you must work on yourself.”
“Yes, Mom. I understand.”
Even without the Four Fairies’ insistence, I have no intention of becoming complacent. I will continuously hone my skills and strive to become a martial arts master.
If I do so… maybe I will find a way to exploit her weaknesses.
Right now, I’m bending the knee, but this witch is someone I must eliminate eventually. Serving her as a mother is utter nonsense. Just today, the Four Fairies manipulated me to satisfy her perverse desires after hypnotizing me.
Though the memory is a bit hazy, it’s firmly etched in my mind.
It was an incredibly hot, thrilling, and stimulating experience. But even if the Four Fairies gave me such pleasure, it was only through coercion. I inadvertently betrayed my wives, Serin and Hayoung.
That knowledge filled me with immense rage.
But I held back.
Now, it’s time to play my part.
“I’ll keep working hard.”
“Hehe, good boy. You listen well and make me proud, son.”
The Four Fairies stretched out her hand and patted my head.
“But make sure to balance training and practical experience.”
“Practical experience?”
“Yes. I think the best way is… yes. To take down strong demons and directly consume their essence.”
I agree with that thought.
What I earn through risking my life in battle is certainly much more valuable than what I can easily acquire. There’s a certain enlightenment gained through combat.
“Yes.”
“Still, at your level, it’s tough to deal with demonic generals, right?”
“Yeah, that seems to be the case.”
Only those at the pinnacle can deal with demonic generals.
“Then for now, focus on hunting down demonic beasts of the Central Plains. It might be a bit dangerous, but as my son, you should be able to handle that much, right?”
“…”
Demonic beasts of the Central Plains.
We’re talking about creatures roughly at the level of Madunachal.
In the past, I would have cried out in despair over how to capture such a mad beast, but I’m different now. I’ve built experience and skills, and I’ve consumed the essence to enhance my inner strength.
I can definitely handle it now.
“Yes. I can do it.”
“Great. Then do that. I’ll check back later?”
“Check back…”
If it’s my mother’s orders, I have to obey.
“…”
But it feels as though I’m being pushed into hunting demons because of the Four Fairies’ directives, when in fact, I already intended to go demon-hunting myself.
Whatever happens, if there’s power, I can protect what I want.
“Then, son? I’ll see you again soon.”
The Four Fairies cupped my face with both hands and made eye contact as she bid farewell.
“Yes. Have a safe trip.”
“I’m looking forward to you introducing your wives.”
“No, but Mother! Introducing the Four Fairies as my mom is going to create a huge mess! I have to greet my in-laws too; that’s going to be a lot to handle!”
“Hehe, don’t worry about that part; your mom will take care of it.”
How can I not worry?!
“See you next time.”
—Smooch.
The Four Fairies pressed her lips to my cheek, then vanished as if she were made of smoke. As though she had never been there from the start.
“…”
The scenery returned to normal.
What time is it?
“Crazy.”
Surprisingly, not much time had passed.
Is that cruel creature capable of manipulating both space and time? How the heck am I supposed to deal with such a monster?
I was shocked and staggered, but I quickly regained my composure, knowing there wasn’t time to waste.
If I don’t pull myself together, my wives will be in danger.
—
“Hehehe! Serin, Hayoung! I’ve missed you!”
“What… how much time has passed for you to be saying that?”
“This guy is always being so clingy.”
As I was embraced by the two women who welcomed me genuinely, I finally snapped back to reality.
I was finally freed from that witch.
“That’s right, that’s right… wait a minute. Geunhyeop. You look a little rough around the edges, don’t you?”
“Rough around the edges?”
Serin, who was hugging me, suddenly pushed me away and started touching my face with a scrutinizing gaze.
“Look. Your cheeks have sunk in. Your under-eye bags look dark. It’s strange to suddenly look so exhausted. What happened?”
“Well, I’ve been working hard lately, so maybe I’m just a bit fatigued.”
There’s no way I can tell them the truth.
How could I explain that I was violated by the Four Fairies?
But judging by Serin’s concern, my condition seems like it’s quite serious.
“Well, it’s natural to feel a bit tired after working hard for so long. It would be best to rest for now.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Normally, I would prepare something nice for you and let you rest well… but ah, it’s too bad the city has been devastated. I can’t find a decent place.”
That’s quite unfortunate.
If we just went to Hyeon, we could resolve it, but we still have work to do here. I’ll just rest somewhat.
“It’s okay. I’ll recover quickly without needing anything. I’ll just rest a bit and come back.”
“Do that.”
“Uh? What’s this?”
At that moment, Hayoung approached.
“I think your inner strength has increased a bit.”
“My inner strength?”
Feigning ignorance, I looked at Hayoung.
It’s not surprising. I consumed the essence of the legendary Yudan and also absorbed the purified form of the essence from the Four Fairies.
Undoubtedly, my inner strength must have increased significantly.
“Wait a moment; I’ll measure it. Stay still.”
“Okay. Go ahead.”
“Got it.”
Hayoung concentrated her energy against my back.
Not long after, she spoke.
“What’s going on? Why has it increased so much? This is incredible!”
“Really?”
“Did you gain some enlightenment from fighting those girls? Good job! That’s an incredible achievement!”
“Oh, is it really that much? Thanks, Geunhyeop.”
The two girls clapped their hands and laughed, but…
“Hehehe, I’ve unknowingly gained some tremendous enlightenment again!”
I couldn’t simply rejoice.
