Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Chapter 39

The four Summoned Beasts squeezed me to my limit.

The female slimes absorbed semen through forced ejaculation a whopping 15 times in a little less than an hour.

My stamina was at its lowest due to the intense sex and petting.

"You look pale. Are you alright?"

A full course of high-end cuisine eaten in the middle of a lake filled with wonderful scenery.

It’s really delicious. I want to eat it all, but... I don’t have much strength in my body right now.

I was squeezed too much by the four horny slime females, so I didn’t even have the strength to use a spoon or chopsticks.

She asked worriedly, perhaps seeing my slightly gaunt face.

"Ah... well... lately, the activities of the Villains have been unusual, haven’t they? The Academy attack incident is also like that... so I, who aspire to be a Hunter, am very worried."

I picked up the food in front of me with chopsticks and ate it with a model answer.

"That’s a relief. Strong abilities are important to a Hunter, but the mind is more important, you know? If you don’t have a firm mind, a Hunter can become a Villain in an instant."

Whether she liked my answer, she quickly removed her worried expression and concentrated on the meal for a while.

A clear and clean lake, chirping birds, and the sound of a geomungo that calms the mind.

It’s a perfect meal, but...

"Yes~! Yes~... I want to eat too... Yes~!"

"Nya~... That grilled fish... Aaa... Aeuuung...!"

"Woooooof... Can’t we eat some too? Master?"

The four Summoned Beasts keep aiming for the food.

They craved my semen so much, and now they’re even craving food?

Until now, the four Summoned Beasts had never eaten anything other than semen.

So I thought I only needed to give them semen.

"You guys are satisfied with my semen, right?! Wasn’t it?"

I asked inwardly.

"Yes~! Still!"

"Nya~! Semen is good, but food is also good, nya~!"

"Basically, we can eat food too! Master! Yip!"

"That’s right. We are also living beings. Even though we are mixed with slimes. Woooooof!"

They are about to jump out and sweep away the food.

I tried to calm the Summoned Beasts.

"I visited the Academy to observe the final exam. To scout talent. All the Guild Masters would have done the same."

Suddenly, Layla put down her chopsticks and started talking.

"Most of them had students they wanted. From 1st to 3rd grade, they were diverse. I also had a student I wanted to recruit into the guild. Then... I saw Neo Haias breaking through the encirclement of his classmates and fighting. The scene of him engaging in close combat in the form of a brown fox Beast-kin was very impressive."

"Thank you for seeing it favorably."

She’s obviously trying to bring up something serious.

I soothed the beast-kin inwardly and expressed my gratitude to her.

"Possessionist. There are Hunters with this ability. Hunters who become one with an unknown being and use the abilities of that being. Is Neo Haias perhaps a similar ability?"

After the praise, she revealed her curiosity to know my ability.

I am an S-rank Summoner! A Summoner who made a contract with Summoned Beasts through sex and semen!

I’m curious how her expression would change if I said that.

But I can’t tell her 100% honestly.

Even if it’s uncomfortable, I have to lie. I have to say a plausible and understandable reason.

"Yes. I know. It’s rude to suddenly ask someone who might become a Hunter to tell you their abilities. But I wanted to know. I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of ability it was that made Neo Haias, who was at the bottom, suddenly gain such a powerful ability. Test the ability? Yes. In fact, the ability is also important, but if Neo Haias has that much talent, I’m going to formally offer him a recruitment proposal from the Goblin Guild."

It’s a slightly coercive proposal, but it’s also a proposal with a lot of carrots for me.

I know her image well in the media.

And looking at her attitude in front of me now, I pondered and pondered what to say.

What should I say to be truthful but not reveal all of my abilities?

What should I say so that she doesn’t feel bad?

Then, suddenly, looking at the calm lake, a good idea came to mind.

"My ability is..."

I pointed to the lake with my hand and opened my mouth.

"It’s like water."

***

There are countless Hunters in the world that are optimistic.

But there are very few Hunters who truly know their own skills and limitations.

’Student Neo Haias. You are the same.’

They overestimate themselves with words that glamorize themselves.

They’re desperate to get into the Goblin Guild.

That saying, comparing one’s abilities to water, was one of the famous quotes from the current Ranker number one, Elysia.

Quoting Elysia’s famous saying.

Whether it was proof that Neo Haias possessed abilities in the Summoner category, or simply a case of being afflicted with famous-quote disease... she couldn’t tell.

Silently listening to Neo Haias’s words, she gave a perfunctory agreement and finished her meal.

If he had been humble, they could have had a sincere conversation.

’I need to test him properly. I don’t know if Student Neo Haias really has that level of skill or if he’s just an empty wagon making a lot of noise.’

In the former case, she would treat him accordingly, and in the latter case, she would coldly send him away.

Having made this judgment, the Guild Master of the Goblin Guild, Layla, decided to set an example for Neo Haias.

In particular, she wanted to show the difference between a Hunter who had experienced actual combat even once and an Academy student.

Layla, having finished a somewhat disappointing and unsatisfactory meal.

She specially summoned a prospective Hunter whom the Goblin Guild was coveting and already sponsoring.

Inside the Goblin Guild Master’s office.

It was a room with a stronger Eastern influence than the room given to Neo Haias.

Layla sat in her seat and carefully examined the combat footage of Neo Haias that the Academy had provided.

Clearly, powerful abilities that were hard to believe for a student.

Movements that could be said to have practical experience.

But surprisingly, right before the midterm exams, his grades were not just the lowest, but dead last.

In contrast, his written and knowledge scores were the best among the first-year students at the Academy.

The word "accomplished in both literary and military arts" flashed through her mind.

It was one of the very rare and powerful passive Skills.

It was a Skill where physical strength and physical abilities increased in proportion to the amount of knowledge accumulated.

What if Neo Haias had become stronger by receiving the power of that Skill?

How much knowledge would he have to have to be able to exert such a strong level of power?

Even so, Neo Haias, who had shown no physical ability or aptitude as a Hunter, suddenly changes overnight?

He definitely manifested his abilities right before the exam. That was certain.

But the reason for that and the exact nature of his abilities were unknown until a thorough examination was conducted.

The ability to transform into a fox beastman, and being accomplished in both literary and military arts... or could it be something else?

What if the reason he hadn’t manifested his abilities until now was because Neo Haias’s abilities were too strong to be easily manifested?

From here, Layla’s mind began to whir.

Using Neo Haias’s combat footage, her own knowledge, and the Goblin Guild’s information, she analyzed and evaluated Neo Haias’s abilities in her own way.

She was deeply engrossed in her thoughts for once, but...

Knock. Knock. Knock.
