Chapter 151 - Chapter 148: Episode 146 - Discovery
Miel and Bianca.
Miel, in particular, was a total bane of my existence.
Since she was the very person who had violated Seon-ah right before my eyes and brainwashed him, driving a wedge between us, the bitterness in my heart felt like it would never dissolve.
Even though I had memories of slowly getting closer to her during the four months I spent heading toward the Demon World, the hatred that had piled up layer upon layer made it impossible for me to trust a word she said.
The fact that I found her story about ending up in the same pathetic state as me after leaving the Lord's mansion more satisfying than pitiful said it all.
However, the shocking words that came from the mouths of Miel and her older sister, Bianca, were still ringing vividly in my ears.
Min-ah-ajumma.
When I heard from those two that Seon-ah's mother had her body taken over by the Demon King, and that Seon-ah had become the Demon King's consort, my heart felt like it was crumbling.
Min-ah-ajumma, who had tortured us.
She seemed to have come to her senses at the very end, but the thought that it might have been an act just made my skin crawl.
When I was wandering, the face I saw wasn't one that the Min-ah-ajumma I knew would ever make.
That cold cynicism, which she hadn't even shown back when she hated me, felt like it would freeze my very heart, and the reality that she wasn't Min-ah-ajumma but the Demon King Sophia began to hit me even harder.
After the three of us escaped that house, Miel and Bianca made a proposal to me.
That Seon-ah might be in trouble at the hands of the crazed Demon King, so we should save him...
And they asked me to cooperate, saying we should restore happiness and freedom to Seon-ah.
I had no choice but to listen.
It was obvious how that Demon King who tortured us would toy with Seon-ah.
I couldn't help but think that Seon-ah, being a man, might end up suffering things even more shameful and painful than we did.
And there was an even more unbelievable story.
Yena... the fact that the child I once thought of as my own daughter was born between Seon-ah and the Demon King Sophia, who had taken over Min-ah-ajumma's body.
It was too horrific.
I couldn't help but rethink everything about her, the one who tortured us.
I had thought she was the very image of a lunatic as she searched for Seon-ah and tortured us, but now, only the fact that she was a devil wearing a human body came to mind.
Thinking that I had to protect Seon-ah from her at any cost, I came to my house, where I had last seen him.
The painful moment when I was kicked out kept flashing back, but I did it with the resolve that if this was the only way to protect Seon-ah, I would gladly do it...
As I entered the house, I was hit by a strong smell of alcohol.
That foul, intoxicating stench that stung my nose was soaked into the living room.
Ignoring the smell, I turned my head, and Yu-rin began to search with her eyes to see where Seon-ah was.
And then, a realization.
I couldn't hear the presence of anyone else in the house.
An uneasy feeling that only Yu-ra and I were in this house.
To confirm that anxiety, Yu-rin looked at Yu-ra and asked.
"Mom... where is Seon-ah?"
The serious expression on Yu-ra's face began to turn increasingly grim.
It felt like she was angry because Yu-rin, who she thought had a clue to finding Seon-ah, was asking her instead.
However, remembering that even with Yena gone, they needed every extra hand they could get, she couldn't bring herself to be angry at Yu-rin.
Even if the cautious attitude from earlier had vanished, my daughter Yu-rin was still a child who desperately missed Seon-ah.
"Seon-ah... disappeared suddenly one day... and not long after, Yena did too... Maybe both of them left on their own... That's all I know..."
Yu-rin's face turned pale.
As she stood frozen, unable to say anything, Yu-ra asked her daughter about what she had said earlier.
"Right... you said you found out something about Seon-ah?"
"Ye... yes..."
Though she wore a look that hadn't recovered from the shock, Yu-rin steeled herself and spoke to Yu-ra.
The story about the Demon King.
And when she told her that the three of them had been captured by that Demon King and tortured while tied to chairs, the expression on Yu-ra's face grew more and more serious.
And when she finished by telling her about Sophia, Yena's mother, and the fact that the Demon King had settled into Min-ah's body, Yu-ra's face turned pale.
"Who did you hear that story from?... It sounds like something from beyond that Gate, but is that information certain?"
The words flowing from Yu-rin's mouth were unimaginably shocking.
Moreover, it was impossible to tell if it was the truth or not.
"I... I heard it from the monsters Miel and Bianca... If you don't believe me, why don't we go to that house and check for ourselves... Seeing the traces of where I was tortured... and the suspicious magic circles that only monsters would use, Mom's mind might change too..."
Yu-rin thought of the burn marks in the shape of magic circles on the living room floor, which she didn't know the use of, and the traces left at the place where they had been tied up when she last left that house.
Of course, whether her mother could believe it even after seeing that was up to her.
But she wanted to show her that evidence with her own two eyes.
If by any chance Sophia, who had taken over Min-ah-ajumma's body, was there, it felt like she might understand even faster.
They might end up in a dangerous situation, but her mother was stronger than she thought...
Even if a battle broke out, they might be able to escape.
The Demon King, who lived quietly in that tiny house, not living up to the title of Demon King, didn't seem to want any trouble, so it didn't look like she would chase them to the ends of the earth even if they ran away.
Yu-ra couldn't fully believe Yu-rin's words.
'I can't fully trust Yu-rin's words... She's someone who hasn't been off the drugs for long... She might be tricking me with some absurd story about a Demon King or whatever...'
But when she thought that she couldn't miss a single thing if it were related to Seon-ah, she asked Yu-rin to head to that house.
"It would be better to check it once. Yu-rin, you guide me yourself... We might be able to find out about Seon-ah's whereabouts after all..."
"Mom must know too. Since the place where it happened was Min-ah-ajumma's house."
With those words, Yu-rin turned around and moved her feet to go out of the house.
"..."
Thinking that it was an event that took place in an unexpected location, Yu-rin's words might actually be true.
No, rather, since she was a Demon King who had taken over Min-ah's body, she might have even tried to take over Min-ah's house.
'But that house...'
Thinking of the place where that brown-skinned foreigner who looked like a thug had been, something was strange.
She thought as she watched the back of her daughter, who had turned around toward the front door and was leaving the house.
A Demon King is the leader of the demons.
The succubi who were tortured along with Yu-rin.
Then, the question of whether that brown-skinned woman wasn't a monster.
But such questions were no longer of any use.
Because Seon-ah, the most important person who needed that house, wasn't there.
As Yu-ra moved her feet as if there was no need to think anymore and followed behind Yu-rin, only the smell of alcohol from the empty bottles lingered in the house.
Evening came, and the bright red sunset set.
The two people walking together stopped in front of a house as if they had promised to.
Min-ah's house.
The place where memories of Seon-ah growing up were imbued.
The house that had once fallen into the hands of that brown-skinned woman.
But now, they knew the fact that the Demon King had occupied that house.
Yu-rin heard strange sounds coming from that house.
Sounds like someone grunting with their mouth gagged.
And when the mouth was opened again, sounds like moans mixed with screams were heard.
As the voices of a man and a woman were heard together, it wasn't hard to notice that this was the sound of a man and a woman rolling around together.
The man's voice, in particular, I had heard far too many times.
I could never mistake that voice that had circled in my ears thousands of times.
MnZBMElkRjFKc3ZCR0RiWklQRlA5U3ZCb3dHV0RHcG5FbWJMN0l4VnVtOXF1eHVRQVdOdWVPZElqREQ0YlNEMw
Upon hearing that sound, Yu-rin couldn't help but lose her reason.
The thought of acting cautiously vanished, and Yu-rin called out to the owner of that voice, opened the front door, and shouted as she went inside.
"Lee Seon-ah... Seon-ah!"
Yu-ra was flustered by Yu-rin's sudden action, but hearing that name Yu-rin called out, she realized that the sound she had been hearing was Seon-ah's voice.
"Se... Seon-ah? Seon-ah!"
Without realizing it, she followed Yu-rin, who had opened the front door and gone inside, repeating her words.
However, those screams that sounded like moans showed no signs of stopping.
The sound of them mixing their bodies intensely, as if they were lost in a world of their own, did not subside.
"Hnnng! Ughhh! Hnn! Good... more..."
As they entered the living room, that explicit sound was heard loudly.
Yu-rin moved her footsteps toward where that sound was coming from in the living room.
The sound getting louder and louder.
Yu-rin realized her hands were trembling as she looked at the hand gripping the doorknob.
Along with a strange, inexplicable sense of excitement, a miserable feeling seemed to settle in her heart.
Click.
And what the two of them witnessed after opening the door was truly shocking.
Seon-ah's mother, Min-ah.
She was on top of Seon-ah, choking him.
Seon-ah's cock was swallowed by her hole, and judging by how much had been poured out, a puddle of liquid created by their intercourse was forming on Seon-ah's lower body and the bed.
"Se... Seon-ah!"
As Yu-rin called out that name, perhaps they finally noticed the fact that the door had been opened.
The two who were engaging in an act that defied human morality looked toward us.
Their expressions were filled with shock, as if they had been caught.
