Chapter 24 - Chapter 22: Episode 21 - Min-ji's Memories. Awakener Registration
At first, I hesitated to accept Seon-ah's goodwill.
But I couldn't bring myself to take it, feeling too guilty toward my friend, Yu-rin.
Then Seon-ah was kidnapped, and I "had no choice" but to violate him right in front of her.
It wasn't my first time having sex, but being with Seon-ah was on a completely different level from anything I'd ever experienced.
I'd only ever been with one man before, and it had been over three months since we broke up.
Just recalling the sensation of that hard cock—which stayed rock-solid even after cumming inside me multiple times—made me wet.
In my experience, men almost never ejaculated more than twice.
They'd usually go limp after the first time, and often pass out entirely.
With virgins, it wouldn't even get hard without a long session of foreplay.
Since women have a high sex drive and can keep going as long as we have the stamina, it's hard to be satisfied with just one round. Most of the time, after the guy finishes, we just end up masturbating next to the passed-out loser to satisfy our own urges.
Seon-ah, who could keep satisfying a woman over and over again, was the best husband material I'd ever seen.
Good-looking, smart, and a man who could handle a woman's endless drive...
I finally understood why Yu-rin cherished him so much.
That was why, when Yu-rin beat those thugs to death, subdued them, and approached us, I realized she had become an Awakened.
Even though it had been coerced, and even though I was technically having an affair, I didn't think about how scary Yu-rin was. Instead, the thought of wanting to do it with Seon-ah again kept filling my head.
Even when the investigator asked me questions, I kept thinking about that luscious cock.
And once I got home, I just kept masturbating, reliving the memory of violating him.
"Seon-ah... ugh..."
Now that I'd tasted his, my fingers and sex toys felt pathetic.
I needed that thing—the one that pulsed hotly, grew even bigger when it reached its limit, and sprayed its load inside me.
While I was busy masturbating, it was already time to head to university.
Unfortunately, I didn't have any gaps in my schedule today.
I deeply regretted not accepting Seon-ah's confession when he'd made it yesterday.
Now that I knew what he tasted like, I didn't care if I betrayed Yu-rin.
I needed Seon-ah.
Thinking back to his confession, he'd even given me permission to sleep with him when we were kidnapped in that container warehouse.
Maybe that meant he'd already opened his heart to me.
My conscience was long gone.
The desire to steal Seon-ah from Yu-rin had taken root in my heart.
.
.
.
When I got to school, neither Yu-rin nor Seon-ah were there.
I asked a male friend if he knew if Seon-ah was in the dorms, but he said Seon-ah hadn't returned yesterday.
I remembered Yu-rin telling me not to meet him after the incident.
When I tried calling, neither of them picked up; they must have blocked my number.
What if I never see him again?
That couldn't happen.
Now that I knew what Seon-ah was like, I was so desperate I couldn't focus on my lectures.
I kept recalling that act, and before I knew it, the day was over.
I had to figure out how to find him.
'He's probably at Yu-rin's house.'
Since Yu-rin had dragged him off after the incident, I could guess where they were.
Breaking into her house was impossible, and it was hard to imagine Yu-rin—who was so obsessed with him—letting me anywhere near him.
Even if they left the house, they'd likely be together.
Still, I had no choice but to wait for Seon-ah to come out alone, clinging to a sliver of hope.
So, I started waiting in front of her place.
I remembered walking in this direction with Yu-rin after a drinking party a while back.
Along with the relief that I'd checked where she lived, a huge sense of shame welled up.
I was waiting outside my friend's house, trying to fuck her man.
This had to be the craziest thing I'd ever done.
Hours passed, but there was no sign of them.
But it was too early to give up.
I could come back every single day until I saw him.
Once I knew that taste, I couldn't go back to how I was before.
.
.
.
The next day, since I had no classes, I was back at her house early in the morning.
Suddenly, I felt someone's gaze.
The second-floor window opened, and I saw a face I knew.
It was Yu-rin.
I could see her naked upper body through the window.
Does she usually walk around naked at home?
There was a man inside that house right now.
My guess was right.
Yu-rin was getting her fill of the thing I wanted from her boyfriend.
She was probably licking, sucking, and savoring that luscious cock to her heart's content.
I was so envious.
But that was only for a moment.
I made eye contact with her.
We stared at each other for three seconds.
Her expressionless gaze pierced through me as if she knew exactly what I was thinking.
That cold-blooded look brought me back to my senses.
Tears welled up from the sheer misery of it.
Realizing I shouldn't be there, I ran home.
I locked my door, sobbed, and started masturbating again.
After a while, a message arrived.
It came from an unknown number, and it was shocking.
It was a photo of my twin younger brother, passed out with a slack-jawed expression.
He was covered in tears and snot, with multiple injection marks on his forearm.
There were photos of three muscular women indiscriminately violating him one after another.
And the last one was a photo of five condoms filled with white liquid, tied up and placed on the bed next to him.
Then another text came in.
'If you approach him anymore, your brother will become an SNS star. Look forward to it.'
I knew who had sent it.
The subject was omitted, but it had to be Yu-rin.
Her face didn't appear in the photos, so I couldn't report it. The women's faces were mosaicked.
It was clear: if I kept approaching Seon-ah, those photos would be spread online.
They were made for the sole purpose of blackmailing me.
I felt a bit of stubbornness, but I couldn't threaten my family.
I never had the courage to cross that line.
Even while thinking this, I couldn't stop masturbating.
However, this time, it wasn't Seon-ah on my mind, but my brother.
My body needed a virile man, so I thought of him—the one who'd been forced to cum five times.
Thinking about him being violated while I masturbated made me leak endlessly.
Seeing he'd cum five times, they must have drugged him.
Come to think of it, even if it's hard to find a man as virile as Seon-ah, if I just use aphrodisiacs, I could create one.
A substitute would do.
If I seduce a decent-looking man and dose him, it won't be much different from Seon-ah.
Because when you strip men down, they're all pretty much the same except for their cock size.
With that thought, I was able to give up on Seon-ah.
Instead, dark, damp desires took root in Minji's heart.
.
.
.
I was waiting at the association for Awakened registration.
Strangely, Seon-ah couldn't control his sex drive.
It was an aftereffect of almost dying because of Yu-rin.
He could feel the lingering effects of the Awakening in his body.
He emptied his mind to avoid an erection and took the test.
Seon-ah's rank was C.
He was a versatile healer, equipped with both single-target and area-of-effect healing, as well as a passive regeneration ability.
After registration, the association made a mental health exam mandatory.
They knew that someone who awakened in a life-or-death situation was likely to be traumatized and potentially dangerous.
It was a special measure to ensure they weren't releasing a wolf into a flock of sheep.
Fortunately, I passed.
However, there was one problem: my sex drive kept rising.
I didn't want to reveal it.
If Yu-rin found out, she'd be thrilled, but it was too embarrassing to let others know.
I wondered if this happened because the pleasure I felt right before I died was so deeply engraved in my mind.
It was a mix of survival instinct and reproductive instinct.
The saying that ejaculating right before you die feels the best was true.
The pleasure of being strangled while spraying my load was the peak of my existence.
I stopped my wandering thoughts and waited, worried, until Yu-rin passed her test.
.
.
.
Not long after, Yu-rin succeeded in registering as an Awakened.
Her ability was Acceleration, and she received a C rank.
However, she mentioned that the mental evaluation showed a slight problem with impulse control.
They judged that she would only struggle when she became excited.
Thinking of her ending up like this while trying to save me made my heart ache with gratitude.
I felt truly sorry for having confessed to Minji.
I regretted everything, including having to give my body away.
.
.
.
Once outside, we walked around feeling like we were on a date.
However, since we'd known each other for so long, we ran out of things to talk about after thirty minutes.
Then we got to the main topic.
Yu-rin hesitated before speaking.
"Seon-ah, I think I'll be going to the military soon."
"Yeah, I know."

Since she'd dropped out of university, there was no reason to wait.
"But if I'm away for too long, I'm worried about you, so that won't do."
"..."
I kept my mouth shut, remembering my criminal record of being kidnapped, violated, and confessing to another woman just days ago.
One wrong word and Yu-rin would lose it.
"So, I'm planning to do my alternative service as a Duty Hunter. Every Gate I help close shortens my discharge period. Plus, I can earn some money."
"Still, that's too dangerous."
Entering a Gate was inherently dangerous. I couldn't agree to my lover putting herself at risk.
"The Hwaryong Guild is recruiting Duty Hunters. It's the guild my mother is in, so they won't treat me roughly."
True, Executive Director Park Yu-ra wouldn't send her daughter to a death trap.
"Still, it's too dangerous."
You never know what might happen inside a Gate.
"Then why don't you come with me?"
Yu-rin said it out of the blue.
"Huh?"
"They're recruiting medical personnel at Hwaryong headquarters. Not for entering Gates, but for the emergency facility that treats people coming out of them. You could use your abilities, and we'd see each other often. Why don't you apply?"
I thought her obsession had subsided, but she was planning this. I was amazed by her creativity.
I remembered hearing the Hwaryong dormitory was at the headquarters.
"..."
I couldn't say anything.
It was like a woman joining the military as a civilian employee because she was afraid her boyfriend would cheat while he was enlisted.
"Seon-ah. I'm scared you'll cheat on me."
When I didn't answer, she looked at me with cold, icy eyes.
"I was just worried about you. If that's the case, I have no choice. I'll go with you."
The issue was settled, and we contacted our parents to tell them we'd registered as Awakened.
