Chapter 47
When I opened my eyes, a pure white space greeted me.
It's been a while since I've been in this space.
To be precise, this is where Writer Yoo Eunha lives. A room no different from where I live.
Right. The Imagination World.
Meeting Eunha after so long, she was calmly spinning a pen in her hand.
She sighed as soon as she saw me.
"Of all things. To think you'd corrupt the Divine Sword. You know the Divine Sword is ranked #1 among Constellations?"
She's nagging me about fucking the Divine Sword.
"So what do you want from me?"
"No, you did plenty of that savage shit back in your office worker days. You still want to do that stuff even as a woman?"
"Isn't this much better than before?"
Hearing my words, Eunha's expression softened, having no rebuttal.
Right. Compared to when I was causing disasters worldwide, killing people for fun, inciting chaos and committing all sorts of evil - isn't playing around with women just small potatoes?
"I can't deny that. But still, did it have to be the Divine Sword?"
"What, are you saying I made her my slave for nothing?"
"Well, she'd be dangerous as an enemy, but I guess it's fine if she's Eunha's slave. With the Divine Sword's personality, leaving her like this is probably better."
Writer Eunha shrugged her shoulders.
"Right? But hey, what does it feel like being corrupted? You're the writer so you should know."
From what I saw earlier, she was flopping around like a live fish.
At my question, she sighed and carefully opened her mouth.
"Well, it's definitely like a drug setting. But for the Divine Sword, there's the fear of what kind of being she'll become, the guilt and excitement of doing something forbidden as a Constellation. She saw Allen's corrupted Constellation in the previous cycle too. Since she failed to save the world despite being the Divine Sword, there was a bit of a 'might as well get corrupted' resignation. Above all else."
"And in the midst of that, I even denied her existence."
"Yes."
That must have been shocking.
The pleasure was pleasure, but it would have broken her mentally.
Azhi Dahaka, the strongest in the worldview, became humanity's absolute support in a slightly different way.
In that situation, my words basically denied her existence by saying she could just lend Siwoo a bit of power, since she was already a failed Constellation from before the regression.
For the Divine Sword in that state, there was only one thing she could do.
Clinging to me who took away her position as humanity's absolute ally. Wanting to prove her existence even if it meant becoming my slave.
She prioritized her own value over Siwoo or the world.
"So in the end, the regression ruined even the Divine Sword's ego."
"That's right."
So. The Divine Sword submitting to me isn't simply my fault.
"So why did you call me here?"
"Sin has appeared due to causality adjustment. You know that, right?"
"Yeah."
That's why I'm causing all this trouble.
"And you know about the Legion Commanders too."
"Yeah."
The Legion Commanders are Sin's subordinates. Think of the Legion below them as a villain organization.
"If I interfere with the causality adjustment, the story will become truly unpredictable."
"Yeah."
"Even if we postpone the Southern Country travel pass for now, you need to visit the Elf Ruins. The sooner the better."
Southern Country travel pass. A travel destination that doesn't exist on Earth but is accessed through Gates. A warm island, similar to the Maldives they say.
Need I say more.
Originally it was where that bastard Siwoo would trigger beach events with the heroines.
I don't feel the need to go on a Southern Country trip right now either.
Setting aside the Sin situation - right now my group battle members are all famous in South Korea. While their Academy is getting cursed out, going on a carefree trip? That makes no sense. The Academy anonymous bulletin board and communities would definitely be filled with lesbian jokes.
"That's where Reina grows a bit more, right?"
"Plus. Thanks to what our Yong-yong did, new possibilities have opened up for Reina."
"What possibilities?"
"The Dark Elf that I only left as a setting. A corruption awakening, you could say."
"What's the setting like?"
Since the writer is here, I won't bother digging through my original work memories.
"Um. It's a bit lewd. You won't laugh if I tell you?"
"Yeah."
Dark Elves use Demonic Power arrows without spirit help, they say.
If regular Elves use spirit arrows, Dark Elves use corruption arrows. Using arrows that corrupt the target with Demonic Power.
There are separate dedicated skills for it too.
Personality-wise they're somewhat fussy and ferocious, but give their body and soul completely to their master.
There are three conditions for Dark Elf awakening.
1. Excessive Demonic Power absorption. Not regular Demonic Power, but Demonic Power from S-rank monsters or mutants and above.
2. Mutant awakening through monster Core implantation.
3. Killing their own kind (killing Elves or Elf descendants)
"How's this different from the Elf that awakens in the original?"
"Actually combat-wise this one is stronger. You know how corruption buffs work."
"Wait, isn't it standard that corruption means becoming evil?"
Getting stronger through corruption is standard, but falling to justice is standard too. No matter how strong, they're destined to fall for some reason.
"It's our Yong-yong's anyway right? Being evil doesn't matter. And it's just one possibility - following the original work's Elf route is fine too."
She waved a notebook with Reina's corruption settings written in it.
But looking carefully, Writer Eunha's corruption settings book wasn't just for Reina.
What's this? Seems like there are quite a few pages.
"Wait, this isn't just one page. Don't tell me."
"Yes. There's Han Soo-ji, Choi Siwoo and Rosaria, Lee Yoo-jeong too."
I was shocked looking at that settings book.
"Don't tell me you just made this?"
"No, ah, Siwoo's sex change was truly unexpected but. The protagonist and heroine corruptions are based on the work's mutant settings, so I made them before. Even if I tried making them now, my power no longer reaches the world."
In other words, she thought about this long ago and it's Writer Eunha's lewd hobby. Let's acknowledge this taste.
"Hmm. I'll reference it."
"And getting help from previous work heroines wouldn't be bad either. For someone strong and easy to approach, Seo Jiyeon would be best."
"Seo Jiyeon?"
"Yes. When Seo Jiyeon becomes a mutant, she can delete space just by making a clicking sound with her eyes, without even using her hands."
What kind of crazy powerhouse is that.
"Why the hell did you put in such an insane setting?"
"No, I've been putting in various things since the previous work. If mutants and hunters and villains exist, of course there should be a mutant settings book right?"
"Well, you're the writer so whatever."
That's up to the writer. Who am I to say anything. Originally in a world where mutation is possible, making heroines into mutants isn't impossible even without a settings book.
"I've conveyed everything I needed to, so head back."
"Yeah."
When I finished talking with Writer Eunha, a blinding light covered my vision.
* * *
Let me briefly explain what happened recently.
When Siwoo, who was starting to become corrupted as a female, hesitated about villain work, I corrupted the Constellation Divine Sword instead and made her Siwoo's alternate personality.
While Siwoo sleeps, this other personality Shia will come out and do villain work.
I had to explain about blonde Siwoo, no, Choi Shia to the heroines.
Honestly it was embarrassing. Isn't it funny that a Constellation woman is spreading her vagina and dripping vaginal fluids for the Evil Dragon?
"Choi Shia is the Constellation personality that emerged when Choi Siwoo became a woman."
Well that's not wrong.
"Wait, then what happens to the original Choi Siwoo?"
"The original Siwoo is sleeping now. Shia only uses it during sleeping hours."
"Wow the body running 24/7. Is that okay?"
"It's fine. Right now Shia is a half-mutant, Constellation so fatigue doesn't really accumulate for the original first personality Siwoo."
That was surprising.
I did feel bad about it actually.
I mean, I turned her into a mutant without the original owner Siwoo's permission. But surprisingly, with the original Choi Siwoo's personality it was closer to half-Constellation than mutant.
In other words, Choi Siwoo became a total hybrid that becomes half-Constellation or half-mutant depending on personality.
"Let me explain again - I'm Azhi Dahaka, leader of the Black God Church. The followers call me Lady Dahaka."
"Should we call you that too?"
"No, I'm just telling you this in advance and I'll let you know your roles. First is Senior Yoo-jeong."
"Yeah."
Going forward, Yoo-jeong's role is most important.
After all, Songdo's security is entirely Yoo-jeong's responsibility. Especially the Golem protecting Hanseong right now is Yoo-jeong's masterpiece.
"Senior, please make some Golems to protect Songdo. We have magic stones in storage, and Cheonsan Group will support us."
"Hey, Songdo is pretty big you know."
Han Soo-ji glared at me like I was dumping everything on Yoo-jeong. But this can't be helped.
Right now our team's strongest brain is Yoo-jeong.
Glancing at the corruption settings book, when Yoo-jeong becomes a mutant she can put an entire city under her brain network control. I'm plenty satisfied with her current state.
"Most Black God Church followers have combat abilities too. It's not like I'm trying to turn the Black God Church villain organization into a Golem group. A moderate amount is enough."
"Making them isn't hard in the first place. If I make one Golem and pass on manufacturing knowledge, it can work to make another one, then 2 Golems can make more."
Yoo-jeong shrugged like it was no big deal.
"Ah, that's convenient."
"And soon we'll do some streaming called Baekhwa TV."
Baekhwa. A modification of White Flame that I use.
There weren't any other names coming to mind. And using White Flame directly would overlap with my alias White Flame Sword Dancer.
"Don't tell me you're filming villain subjugation videos?"
"Han Soo-ji. Good question. I'll upload not just villain subjugation videos but Gate raid videos too. And Shia."
"Y-yes?"
I made Shia use honorifics with me even normally.
I mean she submitted to me, so if I allow casual speech in front of others, she'll get used to it.
Still, to avoid misunderstandings from others, I let her call me Master in public places.
"How strong do you think you are now in hunter or mutant rank?"
"I think I'd be S-rank."
That's top guild master level in South Korea right now.
If most of those are Yoo Jinseok's companions, then Shia is quite strong.
At that level, she should be able to raid the villain groups in the isolation zone. Most Gates too.
"But how are you going to broadcast?"
That's a good question.
"Cheonsan Group recently developed a drone for outdoor broadcasting hunter streamers."
"Doesn't seem like there'd be much demand?"
"Right. To make money from hunter broadcasts you need to go to dungeons interesting enough for viewers. But if you're strong enough for those dungeons, you're at least A-rank. No reason to be a streamer. Rather it's annoying having to make highlights for viewers?"
Hunters each have their own hunting methods. In that situation, Gate or dungeon raid broadcasts are difficult because you have to protect camera-holding managers.
Moreover, viewers won't donate unless there's decent production. Let alone easy hunts, they only put in money for life-risking dungeons.
No hunter streamer exists who would risk that much. They don't need to - they can make money just going around easy dungeons for monster materials and Cores.
No need to mention S-rank. In that situation, this drone is an innovative invention. Perfect for filming highlights, and while we'll hide the face, Shia will wear a suit that clearly shows her figure so quite a few male viewers will come.
With those skills, upper dungeons or Gates would be easy but. Still, new dungeons or Gate raids, farming upper dungeons - that would be somewhat interesting.
Not to mention villain subjugation.
"So it's specially made. Just for us. The exterior is made of demon dragon scales so it's fine even with considerable impact, and the AI automatically films everything matched to streamer angles."
"Non-hunter outdoor streamers would like this more though?"
Reina nodded.
That's right, but only I can have this special production.
You don't know how many magic stones I had to offer Lee Yoo-jin for this. Thanks to that, the Demonic Power around Songdo got quite purified.
"Yeah. So I'll use one and Shia will use the other. Shia just needs to go to the areas I order, subjugate villains or dungeons or Gates, and return here with return scrolls."
"Yes."
"Then what do we do?"
"Reina will focus on mastering the World Tree Bow for a while. Han Soo-ji, I'll attach a God of War to you. Train. We need to raise your strength before school reopens."
I'll take Reina to the Elf Ruins once she gets somewhat used to it.
That's what we need to do before school reopens.
After assigning roles to each person, I got up first.
After introducing Reina and Han Soo-ji to the followers, I sent them to the underground simulation training room, and attached a God of War to Han Soo-ji.
I have something separate to order Shia besides broadcasting.
"Shia. Rest in my room. You had a rough time earlier right?"
I fucked her hard earlier. The afterglow probably still lingers in her uterus. I'm letting her off considering that.
"Thank you."
"Ah, but I'll contact you when I'm coming, so wait with your legs spread. And brush your teeth today since I need to release."
Come to think of it, I haven't ejaculated at all.
Used up all the time making her submit. So I need to beat up some villains and relieve my frustration later.
"Yes, Master."
After watching Shia bow her head once, I used Kate to come to Bupyeong Station.
Then I took out the drone I received from Lee Yoo-jin from subspace. It even has built-in PC functions.
This probably wouldn't have been possible if magic civilization hadn't developed.
Even now they say it's super expensive as a custom order. If sold for cash it would cost 1 billion they say. That's how much of Cheonsan's technology is concentrated in it.
Not to mention the Akashic Record knowledge in it.
Cheonsan Group probably won't mass produce this even considering cost effectiveness.
I took out smile masks that fit perfectly on me and Kate and put them on our faces. Then I changed our outfits to nun's clothes using Demonic Power.
"It was Twitty."
Streaming platforms are quite famous in this world too. There's still mukbang, bj, gaming streams. But there won't be anything as innovative as me.
This title should do:
