Chapter 22: Way!

“The current situation in the capital is the situation….

I couldn’t get a carriage.”

The puma beastman who brought a black-maned horse said.

The fact that he was a complete puma beastman and ran a bar.

With the monocle he wore over one eye and the wine-colored waiter’s uniform, he looked so similar to Baron, the beastman who ran a bar in Metallica, that he could be considered a twin.

However, he was not Baron, but the head of the Puma Guild branch in Lionheart, the griffon capital.

“One horse is enough.”

Yooseong had stopped by the Puma Guild to get a horse for himself.

In fact, horses were usually purchased at post stations where merchants stopped by, or rented from large inns.

The Information Guild was not usually a place to rent horses.

However, Yooseong had no other choice.

Currently, Lionheart was covered in poisons projected by the venomous giant Loki, leaving traces of that terrible disaster intact.

The buildings were dripping down like melted ice cream in midsummer, sticking to the ground, and the citizens of the city who had lost their families or their entire lives overnight were wandering the streets like beggars.

This was the opposite of the citizens of the capital city of Metallica, who immediately rebuilt the city even after the city was destroyed and began to rebuild it.

Of course, that did not mean that the state did not take any measures for the victims.

Just like the Automatics of Iron Road, soldiers who appeared to be soldiers of the Griffin Kingdom were helping the citizens here and there.

“A horse!

Give me one quickly!”

“I’ll pay more than that guy!

Give me the carriage first!”

Merchants, rich people and their families, and people from large guilds were making a fuss here and there, trying to get out of the ruined city as soon as possible.

Rather than the will to restore it to its original state right away, the atmosphere was filled with the need to escape this troublesome place.

“It’s not something I should worry about, but…

Is the Puma Guild staying here?”

“Yes.

The guild’s principle is to open a branch wherever there are people.”

The Lionheart branch manager added, “Information tends to gather in places where there is chaos,” and handed over the reins.

“When you visit, be careful of thieves!

The capital is in chaos, so there are many people with bad intentions.”

Thanks to being a WIP of the Puma Guild, Yooseong was able to easily obtain a horse despite the chaos and started his journey to Metallica by taking a back road out of the Lionheart capital.

Slowly.

Slowly…

The distance between the Lionheart capital and Iron Road would take several weeks on horseback.

If you use the teleportation gate of a small magic tower in a large city, you can get there in one breath.

They’re definitely chasing after me.

Among magicians, the circle is like a rank insignia.

If Karen Redleaf were to ask for the details of her teleportation spell usage and the location she sent it to, her whereabouts would be revealed in an instant, and she would once again stalk her in front of the workshop door.

Even if it was a little inconvenient, it was better to do it myself.

Hwaruk..

Crackle..

“…”

He lit a bonfire and finished all the camping preparations.

Even during the warrior party, as a supporter, he was responsible for the party’s lodgings and took care of all the camping preparations, and even when he went to the Demon King’s Castle alone, he camped almost every day.

Even now, as time passed, camping was as easy as breathing to Yooseong.

Aww

Using the cries of animals as his lullaby, Yooseong hid himself and fell asleep.

Aww

“..I’m lost.”

“Huh?

You thought this time was definitely this place!

How many times has this been?!”

“The meteor…

manipulated its footprints and even disguised its path by repeating the same path several times.”

“You’re the one who taught meteor tracking, Sylvia?”

“You’re already far beyond my level…

But even you, a wizard, couldn’t track meteor’s mana at all!”

“T…

That’s because you sprayed a mana remover…

The traces were so faint that there was nothing we could do about it!”

A half-elf wizard and a knight bickering in the middle of a forest at night.

Sylvia, who had a superhuman body that could run faster than a horse by channeling mana, and Karen, a great wizard who could teleport between continents, were the combination, but they still couldn’t find meteor even when they were within 1km.

The level of all the interference devices that Yooseong had laid down was high.

It was a level of camouflage and traps that confused the Demon King and his subordinates during the warrior party, so Karen and Sylvia couldn’t easily see through it.

Sylvia and Karen, who focused on the orthodox fields of magic and swordsmanship, were especially vulnerable to such simple distraction tactics.

Considering that the party’s movement speed was halved after Yooseong left the party in the past, it was nearly impossible for the two to find the exact location where Yooseong stayed, even if they could get close to Yooseong using presence tracking and magic tracking.

“There’s definitely evidence of camping here.”

“Yooseong!

Where are you!

Yooseong!!”

And even if they were lucky enough to arrive at Yooseong’s location…

“…”

They couldn’t have imagined that they would dig a hole under a large rock and sleep under it while keeping their presence hidden, like assassins who sleep soundlessly.

Sylvia and Karen could never escape the darkness under their lamps.

“Oh!

Yooseong, are you back?”

A few weeks later, Yoosung arrived safely at the gateway to the capital city of Metallica without ever meeting Sylvia or Karen.

‘It’s almost completely restored.

Thud..

thud..

Walking through the entrance of Metallica’s gateway, Yoosung couldn’t hide his surprise at the sight of the city that had been reorganized to the point where there was no trace of the giant Thor.

It was definitely in ruins, almost half-destroyed, just before he left.

In just a few weeks, the roads were repaired and the buildings were rebuilt to their original state, and it seemed like the engineers were always researching and developing something.

They fixed the things they had always found inconvenient or added things they wanted to add to the buildings, making the overall cityscape feel richer.

Yoosung walked toward the commercial complex of Metallica where his newly built house was.

Crunch.

“Oh!

Who is this?

It’s not Yoosung!?”

“Oh!

Grand Master!

You’re back!”

While walking down the street, they came across the blacksmith workshop owner Bolder Berg and the gold-class craftsman Magdin.

“It’s the great master!

Great master!”

“Where have you been?

Master!”

In addition, there were several dwarves who greeted Yoosung and leaned against the giant cart, wiping their sweat.

Yoosung naturally looked towards the cart and made a puzzled expression as he looked at the blue rocks on top of it.

“Is that…?”

“I recognize it!

Yes!

It’s a fragment of the giant that shot the lightning.

To be exact, it’s part of a finger!”

“No…

How is that still there?”

He must have fired the sole gravity bomb to compress and destroy the giant.

It was compressed and disappeared without leaving a single piece of stone, so there shouldn’t be any remnants left…

“When the princess imprisoned that giant, there was one arm that was cut off, right?”

“That’s right.

When Iris struck the giant with the crystal prison, one of its arms was cut off by the crystal prison wall and flew away.”

“Anyway, it was a giant’s arm, so it was so big that the princess had a hard time handling it?

But if it’s a new ore, it stimulates our blacksmiths’ unique curiosity, right?

That’s why I told you to leave it to us instead of just…

me!”

Bolderberg said proudly, tapping the rock with his hand.

Looking at it, Yooseong realized that the electricity that the giant emitted when it moved stopped emitted after it died.

“What do you think?

Yooseong, if you’re interested, can you give it to me?

A few months ago, didn’t you look for such a unique ore?”

The dwarf, who was the most miserable of miserable when it came to ores, offered to share a unique ore that he had never seen before.

“I’ll just touch it.”

Yooseong placed his hand on the ore, feeling a strange tension for some reason.

[Transmutation: Interpretation]

“?”

“What do you think?

Is it a useful rock?”

“Huh?”

In response to Bolderberg’s question about whether the rock he brought was trash or usable material.

“…I don’t know.

I can’t interpret this.”

Yoosung answered with a puzzled face.

‘The interpretation of the art of fusion doesn’t work?”

Up until now, there has never been a case where the interpretation of the art of fusion failed.

Because it is an awakening device that has reached the level of a Grandmaster among warriors and magicians.

Even if it was a high-level artifact or a difficult object to interpret because it had a strong power, it was a technique to obtain the minimum amount of information that could be figured out.

However, this giant fragment was not only poorly interpreted, but its interpretation itself was blocked.

“Um… can I just take one piece?”

“Huh?

Even if I say take it!

There are so many.”

Yooseong headed to his newly built house with the giant fragment that BolderBerg had given him.

<<< There are some slightly grotesque parts!

Caution!>>>>

Drop Drop.

A space filled with damp moisture.

An unidentified liquid flowed from the ceiling and fell to the floor.

Wriggle!..Wriggle!

The ceiling, which looked like a dark red lump, was covered with meaty chunks.

Inside this space, the ceiling, both walls, and the floor were all covered with damp, squirming flesh walls, as if they were the stomach of some animal.

In the middle of such a place.

Throb..! Throb..!

“Haa.. haaah..”

“Huh..!”

Those wearing black priestly robes are tied up.

Wriggle..! Wriggle–!

Black tentacles that sprouted like stems from the ceiling and floor wrapped around their wrists and ankles, binding their bodies in a standing position.

“Eww.. ah.”

Their eyes and ears were also covered with blindfolds and earplugs made of squirming monsters, blocking their five senses, and a sticky discomfort and an unprecedented fear of not being able to see anything were eating away at their minds.

All they were allowed was to inhale and exhale the stuffy, pungent air that filled the space, and feel the unpleasant sensation of the squelching tentacles that bound their arms and legs.

Swish– Swish-!

“Ooooosh..!”

Gulp..! Gulp…!

A sticky liquid suddenly flowed out from the tentacle stuck in their mouths.

“Ooosh!

Ooosh!

The priests struggled to spit out the tentacles, but the tentacles, which lightly penetrated their esophagus despite their resistance, poured liquid into their stomachs regardless of their will.

Chuuup…

“Uwuk…

Ueeeek…”

“Ugh…”

The priests retched at the pungent smell rising from their stomachs after the tentacles left their mouths.

However, the liquid that had once passed the esophagus was abnormally viscous, so they could never spit it out again.

Wriggle…

The tentacles disappeared beyond the wall again.

“Ugh…

Ahhh…”

Soon after, the priests began to stick out their tongues and tremble.

The liquid that the tentacles had injected was a mixture of nutrients that would keep them from starving to death, as well as a muscle relaxant with a paralyzing agent.

The priests who had been held here for several weeks drank the liquid that the tentacles injected over and over again instead of eating.

Since it was all absorbed in the stomach in liquid form, there was no need to defecate, but on the contrary, a large amount of water was generated, so urine was produced much more than usual.

However, in the few weeks they had been here, they had not urinated even once.

Splash..splash..!

“Ugh!!”

“Kuuuuk..!

Huh..!”

Regardless of gender, their abdomens were swollen like balloons, as if they were pregnant.

What filled their insides was, of course, urine that they could not excrete!

Since they obtained nutrition only from liquids, most of the liquid absorbed into their bodies turned into urine and headed to the bladder.

If urine piled up, it could be excreted through the urethra, but wriggle wriggle the priests’ urethra was blocked by small, larval-like black tentacles, not allowing even a single drop of urine to be excreted.

“Kuaaaah..!

I’m going crazy..

I’m going crazy!!”

“Make..

me..

cum..!”

A hellish situation where the urge to defecate cannot be relieved at all due to the tentacle blocking the urethra despite the muscle relaxant releasing the urethra.

Kukk!

Kkukk!

“Ugh.”

“Please!”

The pain of having their stomachs pulled due to the urine that had piled up there for weeks was added to the pain, and the physical and mental pain was no less than any other torture.

There was only one reason why they were being tortured like this.

Chowwow–!

The wall of the meat lump in front of the space opens, revealing the iron bars of the prison with light.

The place where these priests are tied up is an underground prison somewhere in the Magic Kingdom of Makinia.

Again..

Again.

With the sound of high-heeled footsteps, a figure appears beyond the iron bars.

With the sound of footsteps getting closer, bright red eyes like a demon move in the darkness.

Again..

As the figure approaches right in front of the iron bars, the figure of a nun is revealed.

A black veil and black nun’s habit.

The clothes she is wearing are similar to the clothes of the saints of the Church of the Goddess, but different.

As a disciple of the Goddess, a saint who must be more pure than anyone else, she originally wears clothes with a modest design that covers as much skin as possible.

However, the clothes you see now are slit in the chest area, exposing her cleavage, and the hem of her skirt, which should completely cover her ankles, is cut on both sides, so every time she takes a step, white skin from her ankles to her thighs is revealed next to the cut parts of the fabric.

There were even high heels that didn’t fit the priest’s attire.

The priest’s attire, which had changed from pure to decadent, felt like a symbol mocking the cult of the goddess itself.

“Ahhh-Have you all been faithful to the goddess?” asked the girl with a kind smile and tilted her head.

No, the former saint LeaForte.

“Ugh..”

“Keuuuu..”

However, the priests, who were unable to answer Lea’s question, could only let out groans of pain.

“Oh no..

I was so inconsiderate!”

Snap-

Lea snapped her thin fingers.

Thump..

The demonic bugs that had been blocking the priests’ eyes and ears fell away.

“Huh..uh..”

“Heuh..

heuh..”

Even though they could see and hear again, the priests couldn’t easily come to their senses because of the pain they had suffered so far.

“Keuuu..

LeaForte..!!”

But the short silver-haired priestess in the middle of them immediately glared at Leah and let out a voice of hatred.

“Wow-The commander is really different!

I tortured you for weeks without any rest…

and you still have the sanity to recognize me?

That must be thanks to your faith, right?”

Why on earth…!

Why did you betray the goddess’s church, make a contract with the devil, and become corrupt!?

When you think about what the Goddess and the Church of the Goddess did for you, it should never have been like this..!”

“Shut up.”

WHISTLE–!

SLASH-!!

“HAKKYUAAAH..!!”

At Leah’s single word, a tentacle suddenly sprouted and lashed at Captain Eclipse’s swollen stomach like a whip.

The shock was enough to dent his already stretched stomach, and even Captain Eclipse, who had strong willpower, rolled his eyes and screamed.

“Did you say that the Goddess…

that trash and the Church of the Goddess did something for me?”

Again and again.

“All I remember is you brainwashing me by locking me up like a bird in a cage and telling me to live only by my faith in the Goddess..?”

Again and again…

“You taught me that I was not a ‘saint’ but a person named LeahForte..

You taught me about the outside world, not the stuffy inside of the temple.”

Wriggle–

Squelch-!

The tentacle moved and spread the gap in the iron bars.

Crunch…

“There was only one person.

That evil spirit…

that hopeless piece of trash!

Even to my precious person!”

bang

“Are you saying that you manipulated me into committing such cruel acts?”

Leah bowed down in front of the Eclipse captain and placed the temple of the Goddess Cult under the Eclipse captain’s legs.

“LeahForte…

The goddess will not forgive you..!”

“I wish that were true.

I wish that trashy evil spirit would get angry and come find me soon…

I would be able to see that disgusting face distorted as much as the pain she inflicted on me and the one I love…!”

Swish Swish.

Leah said that and stroked the Eclipse captain’s stomach with the palm of her hand with a smiling face.

She slowly removed her hand and moved her red lips again.

“In order to do that, I’m going to commit a little more blasphemy against your god.”

“…?”

“The most devout of the priests in the Goddess Church, the Inquisitor…

You, their leader.”

Wriggle…

“….Can you stop spewing filth in the sacred temple?

Shall we test your faith?”

As soon as Leah finished speaking, the face of the leader of the Eclipse… Orca… turned pale.

“Ah… no!

What are you planning to do…?”

“What would happen if the insect tentacle blocking the leader of the Inquisitor’s urinary tract came out right now with a pop!?”

“S… stop…”

Before the shout to leave it behind could even come out.

Wriggle-hug!

A small tentacle came out of the side of the leader of the Eclipse’s urethra and fell between his legs.

***

Tingle-!

“Heekeueuugh…!!!?!?”

For a moment, a sensation like electricity rose up as the dam that had been blocked was released, and all the urine that had been building up in his bladder rushed down.

‘Ah… no!

Down below is the temple with the words of the goddess written on it..!

“Kkaaaah-!!”

Eclipse Captain started to use all his strength in his lower body to not urinate, screaming at the top of his lungs.

Gulp–

Gulp

The organs inside, which had finally been able to vent air through the hole after a long time, were screaming to release their contents right away.

Even with the muscles relaxed by the muscle relaxant, he couldn’t stop his urine from bursting out if he let his guard down even a little.

Swish-Swish-

In that situation, Leah shook her head as if she found it enjoyable and rubbed Orca’s belly with her hand.

“Show me what kind of faith you have in the goddess that you cry out to every day!”

“Hehe.. ughgeug–!”

“How about this?

Ahh-Goddess, your priest is in pain-Please come down and save me-

What if I shout?”

“Hehe..hehe..hooooook..!”

“People are talking, so answer”

Kkuuuk-!!

“Do it!”

At the same time as Leah’s palm pressed hard on the Eclipse Captain’s belly.

“Nooooooooo–!”

Shout-shout..!!!

Bright yellow urine spurted out from the hem of Eclipse Captain’s combat nun’s skirt and began to pour down onto the temple and soak it.

“Nooooooo!!

The goddess’s temple…!

Heeeeek

Stop it-!!!”

Shout-shout-!

Even with the screams of Eclipse Captain Orca, the stream of urine that had been building up showed no signs of stopping.

“Gyahaha!

The heretic inquisitor who serves the goddess peed such a huge amount on the temple!

Ahh-This is so awesome!

I like it!

I like it very much!”

Leah burst into laughter at the sight, wrapping her arms around her body with a face soaked in pleasure and giggling with a distorted smile.

Drop..

drop..

Orca, who had expelled all of his urine, felt physical pleasure from the immense sense of liberation, but

“Huh..

Huh…”

He shed tears of guilt and self-loathing for defiling the temple with his own filth.

“It’s okay.

It’s okay.”

Leah patted Orca’s head.

I’m sorry, but you’re having fun.”

Behind him, a black-haired old man wearing a black robe appeared.

“Hmm?”

Leah looked at the old man, the black magic tower lord Granil, who bowed his head with the utmost respect to Leah’s gaze.

Leah became serious at having her good time interrupted.

“What’s going on?

If it weren’t important, I’d be a little upset…”

“Another group of people chasing the leader have arrived in Makinia.”

“Isn’t that a common occurrence?”

“There’s a warrior among them.”

Leah’s eyes widened at the word ‘warrior’ and she smiled like a child again.

“Warrior!

Is it Yooseong, brother?”

“Yes..?”

Granil was momentarily flustered by the name “Yooseong’ that came out of the blue after the title of warrior.

He looked at the red eyes staring at him.

He used his brain as much as he could and remembered that the supporter of the warrior party was named “Han Yooseong:

“No.

It’s not Han Yooseong, the supporter of the warrior party, but Jin, the Griffin King and warrior..”

Phew!

Swish..!

In an instant, the tentacle moved quickly and snatched one of Granil’s arms away.

“The warrior who defeated the Demon King is not Jin SeYeon, but Han Yooseong, Yooseong, brother?”

Granil tilted his head to the side and heard Leah’s voice forcing an answer…

“I understand.

It’s not the warrior Han Yooseong, but the Griffin King Jin SeYeon who is heading to Makinia.”

..He answered without even thinking about wiping the flowing blood.

“Hmm.

It’s a shame that Orabeoni Yooseong didn’t come, but…

I have something to ask the fake warrior about lately…

Let’s play until here for today!”

Despite all the horrible things she had done so far, Leah smiled like an innocent child and walked out of the prison, leaving the Heretic Inquisitors who had tied her up behind her.

Swish-!

The walls closed again and the groans of those captured within echoed.
