The waiting Chinese people,
"Kuaaaaak!!! Fucking hell!!"
"Fucking, what the fuck ni ma de qu fu le ma!!"
"How long do we have to stay here?"
"Just come out! I'll really turn you into a dismembered onahole!!"
And the assassination squad hired by Ohsung Group's Chief Secretary also returned empty-handed after their business trip.
"You should pay our travel expenses."
"No, she seems about to come out soon, can't we wait a bit longer?"
They were none other than Iran's special forces!
These guys roaming around after receiving huge sums to save collapsing Iran(?) from Tower collapse.
"That's why I'm asking for the cost. The contract originally said 'after clearing floor 27', right? Aren't you considering the opportunity cost while we're stuck here?"
'Damn, what kind of assassins...'
Uncharacteristically nitpicky assassins. At this rate, we might have to provide their four major insurances too, so we decide to pay additional funds.
Of course since this is Vice Chairman's black money, the Chief Secretary gets severely scolded by the Vice Chairman.
'Bullshit coming from both above and below...'
An ordinary office worker's day.
And naturally, guild members waiting for Lee Do-hee's elixir provision also go wild.
- Lee Do-hee must provide elixir immediately!!!
- You bitch really need to spread your pussy fast!!!(This message has been deleted)
- I'll really kill you onahole bitch
- Ever heard of forced execution?
- Are you playing hard to get now?
The chat turns slightly hostile.
Mainly lower-floor guild members waiting to taste Lee Do-hee's pussy.
"Ah, everyone please calm down. I have my reasons too?"
Need to put out the fire first.
"Folks, the next floor is 28F. Do you know what comes from 28F?"
- The most needed trait?
- Something good does come out
"Who knows? Maybe another trait you all want will appear?"
When I smirk and curl my lips,
- Oh...
- No way?
- Permanent buff when fucking pussy?
- Hehehe...
- Does grool give stats too?
- Increased onahole usage count
- Add nipple fuck ㄱㄱ
- Wish we got +1 stat every time we make Lee Do-hee climax...
- +1 per climax sounds goodㅋㅋㅋ
- Fucking bitch then I'd get 100 stats
'As expected, these perverts...'
Not sure if the Tower would actually give such traits, but that would be the administrators' fault.
As perverts' happy R-18 delusions dominate the chat, it quickly stabilizes.
"Manager-nim, are the party members decided?"
For this, I'd asked the manager to prepare party members immediately after the floor 27 clear message appeared.
- Manager : Yes, they're on standby now.
- What? When was this prepared?
- Did it around dawn a week ago
- What? I was preparing to snipe random matching!
- Ah shit
- They usually decide important stuff when no one's aroundㅋㅋ
This time I'm really aiming for high grade.
'Aiming for at least SSS-grade.'
Though can't aim for grade-up since rewards aren't selectable, considering this floor always gives good stuff, getting SSS alone should grant a great trait.
"And there's something to do before that!"
Looking at the sturdy swine that wouldn't budge even if dropped from the sky, I smile.
"M-master?"
When I look at the swine with an evil grin, some pigs sensing something tremble in fear.
***
This is floor 20. Neutral zone full of minerals and natural resources. And Awakeners' most hated best neutral zone #1!
Bad air, bad scenery.
I summon 31 pigs here except the Mage and King. No matter how they hide, summoning solves everything.
Approaching the manager from Korea Awakener Association with the bewildered pigs.
"Please register these labor summons."
- Labor summons for real...?
- Seriously sending them to coal mines?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
- Wow;;
- CEO-nim is mean
- Evil CEO Lee Do-hee must provide elixir!
Turning off viewer chat temporarily to focus on manager conversation.
"Yes, I'll issue summon identification tags. For summons, 20% of obtained resources go to fees. If they attack other Awakeners, responsibility lies with summoner. 10 million won per tag."
"What? Why so expensive?"
The 20% cut could be registration/protection fee, but it used to cost just 1 million won before?
With abundant Tower resources, it's actually a low-inflation era now. Prices should've dropped, not increased tenfold?
"It's identification tags with 360-degree blackbox spaces for summon protection. Real-time server data storage too, protecting from malicious Awakeners attacking from behind. Need mining equipment rental too?"
"How much is that?"
"100,000 won monthly! Free rental of equipment usable in all mines!"
'What absolute highway robbery...'
The manager's eyes sparkle lovingly at the pigs, seeing his long-awaited performance boost.
Ultimately 11 million per pig.
Biting back tears, I pay 330 million on the spot.
'Kkeu... My precious money!'
After distributing tags, gather pigs before iron mine.
"Gentlemen! I'm deeply disappointed in your combat abilities!"
The pigs visibly wilt at my words.
"I think it's because you're weak!"
Pigs grow more sullen.
"But humans are weak too! We became strong using tools and equipment!"
Hence my plan to equip pigs. Their specs are too good for mere labor.
Even at 20% of my stats when weak.
With buffs, strong enough to wipe out cavalry. Plus equipment bonuses might exceed 20% of my stats.
"So work! Strive! Struggle! I'll give you opportunity. Half your earnings will fund your armaments. Not equal weapons for all. Hard workers get better weapons and gear."
Pigs slowly raise their heads.
They can strengthen themselves with their own earnings!
"Just weapons? Want to be knights? Mages? Possible! Skill books and martial arts manuals available too. Careers are your choice."
Pigs' eyes widen.
Just moments ago looking like conscripted mine slaves, now perking ears at becoming stronger.
Knights, mages!
Such romantic words!
Though essentially medieval serfs used as soldiers during war and slaves otherwise, the chance to grow as they choose opens their ears.
Humans live on hope called future. Their thinking isn't much different.
But some would still slack off.
"When we meet female Pucked Tribe later, strongest get married first!"
At this, all pigs' eyes blaze with fire.
They're males after all.
30 pigs total for work.
Excluded Mage and King.
Plan to raise Mage as true mage to my taste. King feels wrong to make work, plus he gives wide-area buffs like <Battle Cry> different from mine.
Security Captain will be supervisor.
He'll record each pig's earnings and deduct desired equipment costs.
Essentially accounting work, but he's the only manageable talent. Also to scold lazy pigs.
'Hehehe... This is perfect auto-hunting!'
Watching pigs disperse with pickaxes, a satisfied smile forms.
Now pigs will earn money and grow stronger for me!
'Mutually beneficial! Yep!'
Money reminds me of something else.
"Manager-nim? Any contact from World Awakener Association? Need to start breast milk sales."
- Manager : Ah that... Got rejected
- ?
- They refused?
- Is it different coming from humans?
- Items/potions get consumed, but Lee Do-hee's milk stays in Status Window after consumption.
"Ah, what's the reason?"
In the past would've flown to Switzerland, but not yet time.
- Manager : They said... If you reveal all hidden Status Window parts, they'll approve immediately...
- What's Lee Do-hee hiding?
- Hiding something while 24/7 streaming?
- What did you hide?
- Lying to us?
- Did you not submit Sex Window?ㅋㅋ
"Ahem... Since I have to submit anyway, I'll do so."
Of course submitted Sex Window.
Would I make things difficult over embarrassment now?
The hidden part in my Status Window:
[Bonus Stats : 48]
Clearing trials grants bonus stats to allocate.
Normally used immediately before next floor. Most assume I did too.
Who'd expect someone climbing without using bonus stats?
Plus with Irene's manual's gradual stat increases, hard to distinguish used/unused bonus stats.
Hidden since floor 17.
Easy to hide by turning screen during bathroom breaks.
Some Awakeners found bonus stat absence odd but stayed quiet, being on my side despite daily harassment.
'Hmm... Wanted to keep this last resort. Making me reveal unnecessary things.'
These rigid bureaucrats.
Probably regulations.
"Ah, and good news for guild members."
Seeing Necroumbra's trait confirmed my suspicion.
[SS-grade Nutrient-Rich Sap]
Sap produced by Necroumbra grown with good nutrition.
All stats +2 (200ml standard, no duplicate consumption)
"We'll provide this to guild members first too!"
- Oh...
- That's not semen right?
- Ah
- Our guild's benefits are best
- Hey, +2 all stats looks like nothing? I'd drink even if semen
"No, not semen. White but tastes like sweet strawberry milk."
Surprisingly, least obedient-seeming Necroumbra obeys best among summons.
Collecting sap whenever possible - already gathered about 5L.
"Then let's start! First, quickly clear 19F!"
Climbing 29F restarts weekly timer. Clearing this way allows repeating cleared floor once more.
About 30 minutes.
Receive healing potion as reward and finish quickly.
"Disappointing reward, but something better next time."
Finally!
Time to meet our guild's elite members.
'Actually don't know who they are...'
But I trust our capable admin staff's discernment!
Whoosh!!
'Coming...'
With teleport sounds, approved 28F elite members arrive one by one.
First is someone I know.
Himura Yamato.
Japanese swordsman who cleared floor 18 with me.
Joined my guild after my invitation.
Samurai-style long hair tied back, wearing wide purple high-quality martial arts uniform.
Tilted 45 degrees, leaning while slightly pushing sword from sheath into iaido stance.
"Hello..."
"Once you draw your sword, you must wield it till life's end."
"......"
'Gaaah!! Like choosing game champions...'
Ignoring his cringey greeting, look at next person.
"Nice to meet you Lee Do-hee! Waited months to snipe here, but passed interview instead!"
Nickname Ddo-ttameok.
Real name Byeon Gi-chan.
'Wow... Can't call by name or nickname...?'
How can someone be named Toilet.
Quickly ignore him too, waiting for last member.
Party needs priest/mage. No familiar faces, likely new.
"Huh? Wait. Could it be..."
"A... girl?"
- Real girl?
- Wowㄷㄷ Finally a non-onahole girl appears!
- Oh?
- Mages/priests being girls is national rule!
- Please...
- Might get muscular huge-cock guy...
Finally teleport activates as last party member arrives under our expectations.
Please be girl!!
Cosmic energy gathers for girl appearance from everyone's desperate wishes, but
"Nice to meet you."
'......'
"Ah, tsk..."
A giant bronze-skinned man appears holding massive staff.
'Ah...'
Familiar face.
One of the gym rats always at Choi Tae-soo's training room!
"By any chance... mage?"
"Yes! Correct. Mage Kim In-su!"
'Why is the mage the most buff...'
Slightly strange, but our guild's elite 4-man party is complete.
