**World Hunter Union**
At the South Korean branch of the World Hunter Union, located in Busan, representatives from various countries gathered to discuss the incident involving the Sin of Gluttony. At that time, Park Junhyuk, having gained strength through a fragment’s power, was releasing an extraordinary level of dark energy. It was comparable to the level emitted by at least an A-rank monster, and the incident was promptly reported to the World Hunter Union through the local association.
Since the cataclysmic disaster caused by Ajdaha years ago, which had nearly devastated the world, hunters who had once fought to subdue those powerful monsters were naturally sensitive to this new incident.
“We have learned that a Korean named Park Junhyuk grew stronger after hearing a voice from the Sin of Gluttony and receiving a fragment.”
“Given that he’s emitting dark energy, there’s no doubt he’s transforming into a monster. But what exactly is this ‘Sin’?”
“We barely managed to subdue creatures like the Yellow Dragon and others that could devastate the world just a few years ago. If this Sin is equally dangerous, identifying its whereabouts is crucial.”
“If Park Junhyuk’s power reached the level of an A-rank monster, even temporarily, we may have to prepare for an S-rank or higher if left unchecked. Since he received only a fragment, the true form of this Sin might be estimated to be in the S-SS rank range.”
Although this was a simple estimation, the fragments extracted from Park Junhyuk’s heart were notably small. To date, the method for creating a monster involves embedding a monster’s core into a person, and even then, it requires a unique ability to transform them. Yet, such abilities have not been known to create monsters above A-rank. This implies that the original being, the Sin itself, is far stronger.
Meanwhile, Japan, which had struggled in the past against the “Oni of Chaos,” was now on edge, fearing that an oni-level threat emerging in Korea might affect them. With the Yellow Dragon recently appearing in China, they reasoned it was only a matter of time before something similar arose in Korea. As a result, Japan’s representative, Hiroshi Maeda, glared at Lee Cheolsu, the South Korean representative.
“What exactly is Korea doing that such things are happening?”
Lee Cheolsu, the South Korean representative and an A-rank hunter, was already exhausted, thanks to his wife’s constant talk about having a baby. Now, with Hiroshi’s taunts, his frustration had reached its peak.
“Is this coming from someone who was raising oni near Fukushima?”
“Are you mocking us? Many Japanese people died because of that oni incident. How can you mock a neighboring country’s pain like this?”
“Oh, so it’s okay to mock us for having the Sin show up in Korea?”
It wasn’t even clear yet if the Sin originated in Korea or drifted in from another country, so Hiroshi’s accusations were entirely out of line. There was no way Cheolsu could just let it go.
“Everyone knows Korea’s always scheming behind the scenes. With Yujin-seok around, it’s clear you were conducting biological experiments to create the Sin or whatever it is to increase your own power.”
“Have you heard of Unit 731, perhaps?”
After Lee Cheolsu’s sharp retort, the room fell silent. Hunters from other countries could sense that this was the calm before the storm.
Bang!
The first to erupt was Hiroshi.
“You damn Joseonjing, still clinging to the past!”
“Oh, listen to this damn Jap!”
Finally, the tension escalated to the point where both of them began to draw their weapons. Representatives from various European countries tried to intervene and calm Cheolsu and Hiroshi, but the two hunters wouldn’t listen. A hunter representing Europe, fearing the meeting was on the verge of collapse, called out to Tao, the representative from China, who had been sitting quietly with his eyes closed.
“Come on! Representative of China, shouldn’t you step in? As a fellow East Asian hunter, help stop them!”
“The Korean and Japanese always fight; it’s nothing new. Boys grow up by fighting.”
Tao’s words, dismissive as if he were above it all, caught the attention of both Cheolsu and Hiroshi.
“You damn Chinese, copying everything you see, whether it’s culture or anything else.”
“Japan, huh? China was the one that unleashed the Yellow Dragon to ‘purify’ its own people.”
“Hmph! China is the center of the world, and the proud China subdued the Yellow Dragon itself!”
Tao puffed out his chest, speaking confidently, but to Lee Cheolsu and Hiroshi Maeda, his words were revolting.
“Oh, really? Then why does mighty China have fewer S-rank hunters than Korea, despite its huge population?”
“If it weren’t for Japan’s Shinohara clan, do you really think you’d have been able to handle those named monsters in your territory?”
“Servile fools!”
Insulted by the slight against China, Tao rose to his feet, and the meeting quickly devolved into a battleground for the three East Asian nations.
“Quiet, everyone. We’re talking about the Sin, aren’t we? The Sin of Gluttony. This implies that other Sins might also exist.”
“Ah…”
Finally, Alex, the U.S. representative, intervened, restoring some order in the room. Lee Cheolsu, Hiroshi, and Tao sat back down.
“It’s possible that only fragments of the Sin of Gluttony were scattered in Korea, or that the Sin itself is indeed there, but that doesn’t mean all seven Sins are located in Korea. They could just as easily be in Japan, China, or even Europe. This situation could be similar to what we faced with the Four Heavenly Kings.”
The Four Heavenly Kings referred to the Dark Dragon Ajdaha, the Traitor Lancelot, the Yellow Dragon, and the Oni of Chaos. Ajdaha had vanished around the time the Hunter society was being established, though it had roamed between Europe and Asia during its active period. The Yellow Dragon had rampaged across China and Russia, Lancelot had wreaked havoc in Europe, and only the Oni of Chaos had been successfully subdued in Japan, thanks to the efforts of the Shinohara clan.
“Couldn’t we consider this to be Ajdaha’s doing as well? Hunters came up with the Four Heavenly Kings concept, but Ajdaha is a unique entity. It was never defeated, so perhaps…”
“It’s true that Korea is currently the only country where we have a concrete lead on a Sin.”
For now, all they had discovered was the existence of a “Sin.”
“Perhaps each country’s hunter representatives could work to close gates and eliminate villains while keeping an eye out for any clues about the Sins?”
“Yes, that seems like the best course of action.”
And so, the meeting concluded without concrete leads on the Sins, but the existence of these entities was now known worldwide.
“By the way, Mr. Lee Cheolsu…”
“Yes, Alex?”
“That ‘White Flame Sword Princess,’ Yoo Eun-ha —do you happen to know much about her?”
“Oh, well…”
Lee Cheolsu remembered a conversation he’d had with his wife, Kim Young-hee, not long ago.
Cheolsu hadn’t met Yoo Eun-ha himself, so he assumed his wife had exaggerated a bit. Besides, Yoo Yoonha was a famous hunter cadet in Korea, so openly criticizing her wasn’t exactly an option.
“Well, um… she’s a very talented individual. Let’s just say that Korea’s top guilds are all after her.”
“Oh, in that case, she’d get along well with my daughter, Rosemary. They could be good friends, I think.”
Alex, at that moment, had no idea that he was about to leave the fish shop in the care of the cat.

Feeling satisfied, I stretched out, pleased with myself for having successfully brought Reyna, the formidable star, to her knees in the penthouse in Songdo. It had taken some courage on my part to go as far as bringing her to bed, but I was glad I had committed to it.
Reyna, having finally come to her senses, stared at her reflection in the mirror with shock.
"W-what... What is this? My tongue, my eyes... And there's a tattoo on my lower abdomen!"
"Why?"
"What do you mean, 'why'? This...!"
“It makes you even more beautiful.”
When I pressed the spot where her vagina was, she shook her buttocks slightly. This vagina is not just a vagina. It is a symbol of mine. I can proudly show it off wherever I go.
“Th-thanks. But, actually… doesn’t this look kind of like a snake?”
“It’s a dragon.”
“No, really, like a snake—”
“Dragon.”
How could she compare me to a mere snake? That’s insulting. I am a proud dark dragon.
“Yes, fine, a dragon. But more importantly… what am I supposed to do about this?”
“It’s better for kissing, isn’t it? Here.”
I leaned in to demonstrate, letting her feel the unique sensation of my split tongue against hers. The intertwined feeling of two tongues was different from an ordinary kiss, giving it a deeper, more intense connection.
“Haah… haah… Well, aside from that…”
“With enough effort, I can make it whole again.”
With perfect control, I rejoined my split tongue as a demonstration. Reyna frowned at first, then gave it a try herself, following along.
“Right… So, where exactly is this place?”
“This is the headquarters of the Black Deity Cult.”
“What?”
“The penthouse of the Black Deity Cult’s leader—me.”
At my words, Reyna’s face went blank, like a pigeon that had just been hit.
“You’re with the Black Deity Cult? And not just that—you’re the leader? Then what about Kim Jae-su’s attack? No, that doesn’t make sense… something feels off.”
“I just came to take down the Black Deity Cult and ended up becoming the leader, that’s all.”
In truth, I’d beaten my way to the top, but I didn’t want to worry Reyna with the details.
“What… that doesn’t even…”
“Someone’s got to keep these guys under control, right?”
Reyna already knew that I was Ajdaha. I had the justification I needed—the Black Deity Cult worshipped Ajdaha and longed for its resurrection. The world knew it as such, and since Reyna knew who I truly was, I figured she’d understand my reasoning.
“The Black Deity Cult could be executed on sight, and no one would bat an eye.”
“Don’t worry. We’re starting a rebranding.”
From here on, it wouldn’t just be a crazed cult but a coalition of isolated villains and abandoned civilians, forming a new military power in the quarantine zones.
“Rebranding or not, aren’t you essentially reviving the very Black Deity Cult that your brother destroyed?”
“Such a hassle.”
Maybe it was time to change the cult’s name. It was only the Black Deity Cult that was targeted for execution, not the other villains. And frankly, as long as they kept quiet, killing villains wouldn’t cause any issues. I’d already dealt with the Black Dragon Society without much trouble.
“Yoo Eun-ha , you’re risking everything here. We could all end up dead. Even now, if you…”
“Listen, Reyna.”
I explained clearly to Reyna what I intended to achieve by using the Black Deity Cult. I didn’t share any details about the future—only that I would use the cult to unify the quarantine zones and bring the other villains under control.
She stomped her feet anxiously, letting out a sigh.
“The plan sounds fine, but can you really be sure it’ll work? Besides, Yoo Eun-ha , you’re a cadet with the hopes of South Korea on your shoulders. If you’re caught doing villainous things, it’s all over!”
“Then I just need to make sure I don’t get caught. If a rebellion succeeds, it’s a revolution; if it fails, you’re branded a traitor.”
“Fine, but wouldn’t it be nearly impossible to survive without outside support?”
The quarantine zones were entirely isolated from the cities, meaning survival in Songdo would be tough without external aid. But I had the support of the Cheonsan Group behind me.
“Cheonsan Group will provide the supplies.”
“This is more serious than I thought, isn’t it?”
Reyna, clearly taken aback, let out a small gasp. Finding her reaction endearing, I couldn’t help but smile as I wrapped my arms around her gently from behind.
“So. Will you follow me?”
“Are you confident that you won’t get caught?”
“Yeah.”
“But since we have to fight villains or whatever, we have to consider the possibility that our identities will be discovered.”
The longer the tail, the more likely it is that it will be caught. Of course, there is always a risk of being caught.
“I’ll find a way to do that.”
“Haa. Okay.”
I was going to force it in anyway even if she said no.
But there was something more important than that right now.
I looked up and down Reyna’s body, which had been flaunting her femaleness for a while.
“More importantly.”
“Huh?”
“Looking at this slutty body, my lower abdomen is throbbing, so I can’t just sit there and do nothing. Right?”
She’s a bitch who really pisses off women.
“No, and then again.”
“Dragon is full of sexual desire.”
Since morning, I’ve been flaunting my vagina and attacking Reyna, who has been flaunting her bitch status. It was cute how she hung on with that forked tongue every time she climaxed.
