“Huh? A monster you say?”

I look at Hyungseok in disbelief.

It was definitely not good news for me.
After all, choosing such a word meant that Chae Suhyeon was truly something else.

“Damn it. That b*tch’s virginity talk is ridiculous. Damn.”

A deep sense of betrayal.

I was a firm believer in the virginity theory.

This was beyond simply being non-virgin; it was practically on the level of being a complete slut.

“Senior… I looked into it, and it’s horrifying.”

“Horrifying?”

“Just take a look at this.”

I gazed at the photos Hyungseok had laid out on the table.

Everyone looked completely emaciated.

They appeared five or ten years older than their stated ages.

“What’s going on? Why do they all look so old? Is her taste that of an old man?”

“No. Look at this.”

Hyungseok began to lay out another set of photos.

“Senior, this is what they originally looked like. Look.”

All of them had incredibly robust physiques.

They were big and well-built.

From their appearance alone, one would think they were high-ranking hunters or fitness trainers.

“Huh? What? Are these people the same individuals?”

“Yeah.”

Park Hyungseok shuddered, reacting as if it was truly horrifying.

“No, what on earth is this?”

It was hard to believe they were the same people at all.

“The problem is, this happened in just a day or two.”

“Eh?”

I couldn’t help but be shocked.

Could someone so muscular turn into that in just one or two days?

No matter how exhausting it is for men during sex, it shouldn’t be this extreme.

“What’s going on? How did this happen?”

“See? Everyone wanted to avoid Chae Suhyeon.”

“Hmmm…”

It looked extremely serious.

Seeing this made me intimidated too.

“If all the men who met Chae Suhyeon ended up like that, I would naturally try to keep my distance.”

Of course, I thought Chae Suhyeon was a virgin.

I gladly consumed that rumor.

“Oppa… I’m… you’re my first…”

“You know you’re the only one for me.”

“My first love… Hehe…”

“I’ve never been excited in my life, but why do I feel so fluttery when I’m with you?”

Her words came rushing back to me.

“Damn, she’s a great liar.”

“Why was I so foolish?”

I loathed my own naivety.

“The problem is that it seems like nearly 500 people have been victimized.”

Without realizing it, I slapped my forehead.

That was an outrageous number.

“F-five hundred…??????????”

“Yeah, I think there might be more.”

Hyungseok dumped an enormous pile of photos onto the table.

The stack of pictures were all identical.

Completely robust men had turned into the frail appearance of old men in an instant.

“Damn…”

I was now completely engulfed in a state of shock and horror.

It was shocking that Chae Suhyeon could reduce healthy men to that.

And to think she had gone through 500 before me…

Damn. What a total slut.

“But how has she not been caught until now? Is she that lucky?”

“Well, according to the victims, they all say they’re fine. They described it as the best day of their lives…”

Hyungseok frowned slightly.

“Damn those sex-obsessed fools. Damn.”

“I might enjoy it too, but not to this extent.”

It looked as if their rationality had been overtaken completely.

I couldn’t help but worry if I might end up like that too.

“No, despite having so many victims, she hasn’t been caught yet? And after doing such disgraceful acts? This is total luck.”

“This kind of issue usually needs the victims to step forward, but everyone seems to be defending Chae Suhyeon instead.”

Hyungseok looked regretful as he rubbed his chin.

“Ugh, how good must it be…”

It seemed like he, too, was wondering if he wanted to try it.

“You crazy bastard. Are you really saying that after seeing this?”

“No, Senior, you said you knew about around 32 people, right? They weren’t as bad as this though. Similar, of course, but not to this extent…”

It seemed that they were willing to endure some losses for pleasure.

“Anyway, I just learned a very important fact this time.”

Suddenly, he began laughing like a madman.

It was enough to make me think he had lost it.

“What the hell? Why is he laughing in this situation?”

“You see, I thought Chae Suhyeon would try to seduce me too. But she just completely ignored me. Ugh… I thought I must be unattractive as a man, that I was doomed to a lonely life. I’ve been thinking that way.”

“And?”

I started to think he wasn’t entirely wrong.

“B…but!”

His eyes sparkled as if he had a revelation.

“Do you know what the commonality among these people is?”

“What? They’re handsome? Attractive?”

“No. They’re all ‘hunters.’”

“Hmm? Hunters?”

Now I finally understood why he had laughed so much.

“Hahaha. It wasn’t that I lacked charm; it was that I wasn’t a hunter, so she skipped over me. Hahaha!”

“Hey, laugh quieter. I’m getting embarrassed.”
I don’t know if it’s really that enjoyable.

“Then why only target hunters? Why are all the victims hunters?”

“Maybe… I think it’s because she steals hunter points.”

A very sharp deduction.

“After all, succubi are known to drain energy or life force from men, right? If she’s only targeting hunters, it’s obvious. She must be stealing their hunter points.”

That made perfect sense.

Having been by her side for years, I couldn’t help but agree. Every conversation we had revolved around points.

“Oh, Oppa. Why did you only earn this much today? Ha. I’ll give it to you, so earn more.”

“Oppa, you have to achieve at least this much each day, okay? Come on, let’s do it.”

“Focus a bit. You seem to be slacking off lately. We should definitely do it.”

That was definitely how it was. Back then, I thought it was just an obsession with sex… but it might have been an obsession with points.

“But…”

Hyungseok was cautiously looking at me.

“Why do you seem healthier?”

“Huh?”

“You look like you’ve actually gotten fitter after dating her. Your muscles seem to have developed.”

He wasn’t wrong.

Since getting involved with Chae Suhyeon, I had definitely gained a more masculine physique. Of course, I thought it was because I was working hard as a hunter or perhaps just because I was in my twenties.

“What’s going on? Why is it that everyone else is turning into mummies, but I’m not?”

“He said it happened in just a day or two.”

“I’ve been doing it up to 15 times a day… so what’s up with that?”

I had no idea what was happening.

“Hmmm. It seems like Chae Suhyeon actually helped improve you… why could that be?”

“Maybe my stamina is just really strong?”

“Can you prove that?”

“No.”

I didn’t think so either.

“It’s really fortunate. If you had been affected like those hundreds of victims, you wouldn’t have been recognizable.”

“True.”

I let out a sigh of relief without even realizing it.

Except for me, hundreds of victims had been completely devastated. Just thinking about the possibility of ending up like that sent shivers down my spine.

“Chae Suhyeon. What the hell is she doing?”

Does she really possess the characteristics of a succubus, something you’d only read about in fantasy novels?

It felt strange.

An exhilarating yet chilling dual nature.

“Anyway, Baek Jihoon. Get a grip.”

“If I mess with Chae Suhyeon, I won’t be able to escape.”

Suddenly, I wondered if I had underestimated Chae Suhyeon. Anyone who saw the photos in front of me would surely feel that way.

“I’ve managed to survive so far by sheer luck, but I don’t know what the future holds.”

“I must not fall for Chae Suhyeon’s charm.”

I made a firm resolution while looking at the pictures.

“I absolutely will not let my brain be controlled by my libido.”

*

Lunchtime.

The news reported on an incident that occurred last night.

[“Yesterday evening, a vehicle that was speeding and cutting off others on Olympic Boulevard was confirmed to be driven by a well-known hunter. The hunter claimed that it could not be avoided due to important work related to a dungeon, and authorities have stated that no legal action will be taken under the Hunter Special Law…”]

“Huh? Olympic Boulevard?”

The footage showed Chae Suhyeon’s car.

There was no way I could mistake it.

“Hehe, looks like she was in a hurry.”

Chae Suhyeon’s car was crazy, weaving in and out.

Whenever the road got a bit congested, she would immediately drive onto the shoulder.

Moreover, her speed appeared to exceed 140 km/h.

“What’s up, is it a highway or something…”

While it was somewhat ridiculous, thinking about how desperately she might have needed to get to Gimpo brought a smile to my face.

“It seems she really put her life on the line for points.”

“Given that her image could take a hit, it’s surprising to see her act like that.”

Sigh…

It had been a day filled with complicated thoughts.

I had learned absurd information about Chae Suhyeon, and now there were ridiculous rumors spreading that I was dating Lee Sooah, which left me in a bind.

Various scenes flashed before my eyes.

I leaned back with my hands behind my head.

It felt like a strange situation, but I had the feeling things would become quite enjoyable.

“All I have to do is handle Chae Suhyeon well.”

“As long as I can defend against her…”

She would undoubtedly try some schemes against me.

I needed to stay mentally strong and resist being drained of energy.

“Jihoon!”

Suddenly, a sharp voice pulled me from my thoughts.

“Huh?”

I turned around to see Lee Sooah.

She had her hands on her hips and looked incredibly annoyed and frustrated.

It seemed she had been searching for me for quite a while, angrily huffing and puffing.

“What’s up, Sooah? Did you hear about the rumors?”

My heart raced, and I stood up abruptly, partly out of fear.

“Oh no. What should I say to clear this up?”

I hadn’t done anything wrong.
