Chapter 307 - Let's Go!
"What the hell is this...?"
Oh Kang-Woo looked around in confusion. He put more strength into his limbs to move.
Clank, clank.
All he heard were the sounds of chains hitting each other.
'I... can't muster up any strength.'
Kang-Woo's expression hardened. He couldn't circulate his demonic energy as he wanted. It was as if he were under the effects of his Authority of Sealing.
"Shit... what the hell is happening?"
Kang-Woo frowned.
He couldn't even cut his arm off to free himself like he had done back when he had been restrained by the Authority of Sealing, since the unknown white chains had bound his entire body.
Kang-Woo narrowed his eyes. It wasn't like he had absolutely no way to break out.
'If I open a Door...'
If he forcibly made the demonic energy of the Ten Thousand Demon Core run wild by opening a Door, he'd be able to break the chains in an instant.
'Calm down.'
Kang-Woo took a deep breath. Opening a Door was not some technique he could use willy-nilly. He at least needed to figure out what was going on before he used it.
Clank, clank!
"Kuh. Shit... why the hell are they so thick?"
He used the Authority of Blades using the very small amount of demonic energy that he could still move.
The black blade made contact with the chains.
[This is 'Demon-Binding Light' made with the Divinity of the Celestial Goddess. It cannot be destroyed physically.]
"... What?"
Kang-Woo's eyes widened from seeing the message window pop up in front of him. He wasn't surprised by the fact that it couldn't be destroyed physically.
'Made with the Divinity of the Celestial Goddess?'
What nonsense was that?
Before he could continue that line of thought, he felt a presence right outside his room.
Creak.
"Oh, Kang-Woo. You're up."
"... Seol-Ah?"
Seol-Ah's eyes were blurry as if out of focus. She staggered toward Kang-Woo and sat on the bed. She gently caressed his cheeks lovingly.
"What's g—"
Kang-Woo was about to say something when she pulled on his neck and kissed him; her tongue explored his mouth as if she were a starved beast devouring its food.
'Hallelujah.'
What the hell was happening? Was this a dream? Was he having that thing called a wet dream or whatever it was called? He couldn't believe he was having a wet dream despite having lived for ten millennia.
Kang-Woo had kissed Seol-Ah many times, but his kisses had never been this intense. Not even his kisses with Lilith had been this intense.
"Haaa." Seol-Ah exhaled in a stupor.
She smiled and slowly tilted her head.
"Mwah."
From the neck to the ear, Seol-Ah kissed him all over as if she were a bird pecking at him. Kang-Woo's eyes widened as his mouth fell open.
'What the fuck is going on?'
This was fucking amazing.
'No, no. It's not fucking amazing.'
He forcibly severed his train of thought. He was certainly loving what was going on, but not the situation as a whole.
"... What are you doing, Seol-Ah?" he asked in a low voice.
Seol-Ah was clearly acting very weirdly. She was not the gentle, kind, and shy woman that he was used to.
'It feels different from Lilith.'
Lilith knew exactly how to seduce a man (although the tentacles made it meaningless) and perfectly calculated her moves to take advantage of her knowledge. However, all that he felt from Seol-Ah was not seduction but madness and obsession to make every inch of Kang-Woo's body hers.
'Wait.'
Madness and obsession?
Kang-Woo's expression hardened.
"Kang-Woo..." Seol-Ah opened her mouth with a trembling voice. "You see, that rude angel kid said that I didn't know anything about you. Isn't that absurd?"
Her hands covered Kang-Woo's cheeks.
"I would've understood it if it had been Lilith, but that wasn't the case. How dare he, when he met you far later than I have... when he doesn't even live with you or are lovers with you!"
Seol-Ah's voice was starting to carry a hint of madness. As she stared at Kang-Woo, her eyes started to shake violently.
"But... for him to say that I don't know anything about you... Fu... Fufu. That's not the end of it. He said that I'm not able to protect you... so I can't make you happy, you know?"
Kang-Woo heard her grinding her teeth.
Rumble.
Colossal energy flowed out of her. The power contained within the wave of energy could not even be fathomed by even Kang-Woo.
'Holy fuck.'
Kang-Woo's face paled.
"You also think... that's absurd, right, Kang-Woo?"
"..."
"I can't make you happy...? That can't be, right?"
She smiled faintly and hugged Kang-Woo's head. Two soft mounds of flesh touched his head.
"Now..." she whispered seductively, "You can do as you wish, Kang-Woo."
The temptation spread like poison.
Seol-Ah giggled. "I'll protect you from now on, Kang-Woo."
She licked her lips and let out a heated breath. "You don't need to do anything from now on. There's no need for you to be weighed down by the obligation to save the world anymore."
"Umm... Darling? There seems to have been a misunderstanding."
"Just lie still."
"I can't get up anyway since I'm tied up."
"Fufu. You can just stay like that from now on. I'll... do everything for you."
Her eyes were hazy as if she were high. Light poured out of the twelve white wings that had sprouted from her back. They flickered black like a broken lightbulb. Kang-Woo's face paled; the questions in his mind had finally been answered.
'Fuck...'
He fucked up.
'Uriel wasn't the one with the Seed of Corruption.'
He had been completely mistaken. He had felt that something was wrong from the moment that the plan he had prepared so thoroughly had failed.
'It was Seol-Ah.'
Kang-Woo's mouth fell open in shock. It wasn't that he hadn't suspected her. He had checked if the clashing of his energy with Seraph's energy had caused any negative effects on Seol-Ah at the very beginning.
'That was where I fucked up.'
The entangling of energies itself had not influenced Seol-Ah in any way. However, the problem had been that due to the entanglement, the energy of Seraph within Seol-Ah had grown bigger. In other words, Kang-Woo had not realized that Seol-Ah's body was transforming from that of a human to an angel.
'And because it's an angel's body...'
It had instinctive constraints that allowed one to keep their sanity in eternal life, just like demon bodies.
'Seol-Ah's target of obsession is...'
There was no need to even think about what it was.
"Fufu. Kang-Woo~" Seol-Ah hugged him tighter and kissed him.
'Fuuuuuuuck!' Kang-Woo screamed in his head.
His head had never been this jumbled before. The problem wasn't just that Seol-Ah was falling. The biggest problem was...
'I don't know if I should like it or not!'
To be honest, he liked it.
He had practically lived like a virgin for ten millennia except for his time with Lilith, so there was no way that he would dislike such a fantasy-like situation.
'Is it okay if it isn't suitable for all ages anymore? Should we go straight to the moon like this?'
All sorts of thoughts crossed through Kang-Woo's mind. His instinctive desires and sense of reason were clashing with each other. He could hear them debating against each other in his head.
- Let's fucking go! We've waited ten goddamn millennia for this!!
- Calm down. Take a deep breath, and take off your pants.
'What the fuck?'
They were both on the same side.
"What do you think...? You like it too, don't you?"
"Ah, yes. Of course." He nodded furiously.
"In that case..."
Seol-Ah kissed him once again.
Riiing.
[The prerequisite quest has been completed.]
[You have acquired the third key of the Demonic Sea, 'Abysm.']
A blue message window appeared in front of him, and the third symbol of the ring on his right middle finger shone.
"Ah..."
Seol-Ah's eyes shifted to the ring, and her expression crumpled.
"What's this ring?"
"Huh?"
"It's not something that rude kid gave you, is it? Is it?" She bit her lip temperamentally. "Please give me an answer now."
"It's a weapon I made. It can change into all sorts of forms."
Kang-Woo changed the form of the Key of the Demonic Sea for Seol-Ah to see.
"Oh, I-I see. I'm sorry... Kang-Woo."
Seol-Ah blushed and lowered her head.
"Yes, there's no way that you would be wearing a ring that someone else gave you. Yes, there's... absolutely no way." She nodded and smiled.
"..."
"Oh, now that we're on the topic, wh-why don't we also get couple rings? No, let's get them. I'll go buy them in a bit." Seol-Ah kept talking without even giving Kang-Woo time to answer.
Kang-Woo's expression got harder over time.
[The fall has begun! The fall will be permanent if it is not stopped right now!]
A warning window appeared in front of him.
Hesitation appeared in Kang-Woo's eyes.
It was time to choose between the current assertive and wild Seol-Ah and the kind Seol-Ah with a beautiful smile, the one he had first met when he first came to Earth.
"... Hah." Kang-Woo feigned laughter.
It was not even worth thinking about. He also liked the current Seol-Ah to the point that he had almost cheered in delight.
'But...'
The one he had met after ten millennia in Hell and the one who was best with a gentle and soft smile was... the 'human' Han Seol-Ah.
'I will stop the fall.'
He had made up his mind, but the problem was that he didn't know how.
Kang-Woo used what little demonic energy he could move to contact Lilith.
- Lilith!
- My king? What is wrong?
Kang-Woo quickly explained the situation to her.
- Hah... Seol-Ah did?
- Get over here and help me.
- ...
There was silence.
Lilith's voice spread through his mind.
- I don't think I will be of much help to you, my king. If she's powerful enough to restrain you, then I wouldn't even be able to withstand a simple wave of her hand.
- Oh... Shit, then...
- You can't open a Door either.
- What am I supposed to do, then?
- Listen carefully, my king. You said that an angel falls from grace when their obsession reaches the border of madness, right?
- Yeah.
- In that case...
Lilith kept talking.
- You need to start with alleviating that obsession.
- How am I supposed to do that?
- It's simple.
She said without hesitation.
- Do it with Seol-Ah.
- Yeah, that will definitely... What? Do what?
- Oh, you. You know exactly what I mean.
What was he supposed to know?
- If she thinks that the target of her obsession is fully hers, that obsession will naturally be alleviated.
So what was he supposed to do?
- Hurry! There is no time, my king!
Huh? Huuuh?
- Do it now!
"..."
Kang-Woo's mouth was agape with a dumbfounded expression. He saw Seol-Ah mumbling something as if she were a broken radio.
'Do it?'
For real? Was it really okay?
"Fuuu." He took a deep breath in and mustered up the resolve.
'Yeah, let's go.'
He was Oh Kang-Woo, a man roughly ten thousand years old.
'Let's fucking go! Yeah!! I can fucking do it! I have all the knowledge I need!'
He had bought an external hard drive with 1TB of storage without Seol-Ah knowing for a reason.
'Let's go, let's go, let's go!!'
To the moon!
