〈 Episode 156 〉 Episode 155 – Operation Start?

“Everyone stop it!”

As we continued to tease Jeong Bia, Caressy, trying to show her Saintess’s authority, admonished us.

Caressy spoke more seriously than ever.

“Don’t you think this is too much?”

“Saintess…”

Jeong Bia was deeply moved seeing Caressy, the only one defending her.

That sight was truly the image of a Saintess saving the weak.

“How can you brag about a place that ridiculous as a house!?”

“…….”

“Hey, Caressy. That was a critical hit just now.”

An innocent word is pure; that makes it even sharper than a knife.

That knife was enough to slice through Jeong Bia’s heart in all directions.

With a gloomy expression, Jeong Bia collapsed onto the convenience store table.

“I’m dying, you bastard! I almost dropped my ice cream.”

“……What ice cream?”

“Huh?”

The ice cream I left on the table was nowhere to be found.

Surely, I had only taken a bite and briefly set it down, yet it vanished in an instant without any birds passing by.

There’s a perfect line to catch the culprit in times like this.

“Kyaru, was it you again?”

“Don’t keep making a fuss over me!!!”

“Yes! It’s Elcia!”

[Why are we fussing over the strict one!!!]

‘Ah, I found the culprit.’

As Caressy got angry, Elcia, who was right beside me, instantly confessed to the crime.

Elcia, with traces of ice cream on her lips, raised her hand as if saying she did well.

Then, licking her lips, she expressed a bit of regret.

“Master! It’s so sweet!”

“F*ck, of course ice cream is sweet.”

I smacked Elcia’s head and turned back to Jeong Bia.

“So what now? Homeless girl.”

“I’m going to ask the oppas for help.”

“Jung-nak oppa? Or Jung-ja oppa?”

“……Both.”

Jeong Bia said that and temporarily left her seat to make a call.

Not long after, Jeong Bia returned from the call, but her expression was extremely dark.

“All the oppas were denied entry. No one can come in.”

“But that’s a bit too much. Is it okay for a dad to do that?”

No matter what, excluding family members from such occasions is rare.

Even if my treatment at home is completely trash, my parents wouldn’t exclude me from such events.

[Can you be sure?]

‘…….F*ck.’

Maybe…

Anyway, this situation was well beyond the range of normal.

Jeong Bia smiled slightly as if she was a bit liberated and opened her mouth again.

“My mom said that when Ayeon was born, she suddenly acted like a completely different person.”

“Really? A completely different person?”

“I was too young to remember, but that’s what I’ve heard.”

That feels a bit unsettling.

For now, I decided to think about it later and reached out to Jeong Bia.

“Hey, give me your card.”

“Why my card all of a sudden?”

“I didn’t get to eat my ice cream. I need some reward for this.”

“Ha… fine.”

I still had a lingering craving for the ice cream I only had one bite of.

I felt like I had to eat it to find some closure.

However, Jeong Bia’s card only produced the mechanical voice saying, ‘Insufficient balance’ instead of confirming the payment.

Why is there not enough balance?

The culprit is just one.

“Elcia, you better take yours out while I’m being nice.”

“Huh? Master! I didn’t put anything this time!”

[That doesn’t make sense. That beast didn’t put anything?]

‘The bad luck has arrived already.’

This time Elcia looked innocent.

I comforted Elcia and, just in case, tried to pay for the cheapest chocolate at the convenience store.

But…

­ Insufficient balance.

The results didn’t change much.

Of course, Jeong Bia’s expression watching the whole scene deteriorated beyond comparison.

As I returned the card to Jeong Bia, we exchanged some encouraging words.

“Even a goat has no house and now no moneywww.”

“I at least have some coins!”

“Honestly, that’s not even your house, is it? That’s why you got kicked out.”

Jeong Bia’s shoulders started to tremble a bit.

Seeing that, Caressy patted Jeong Bia’s shoulder and said.

“If you want Insta flex, just ask. I’ll help.”

“Fck! Fck! Fck! Fck! F*ck!!!!!!”

Jeong Bia stomped her feet in rage.

But if I can’t prove it, there’s nothing I can do.

Ultimately resigned, Jeong Bia didn’t refute our words but suddenly tried to drift the atmosphere.

“I asked for help, but you guys are outsiders.”

“So?”

“Is it really okay to help when we don’t have a close relationship?”

In response to that, Caressy, with a gentle expression, grabbed Jeong Bia’s shoulder and said.

“Don’t worry. Forced marriage goes against your beliefs.”

“Saintess…. Thank you.”

But if only Caressy takes charge, the protagonist group’s majesty would fade away.

We, too, spoke confidently about our beliefs.

“The weddings have delicious food, right? I’m tired of the same old food.”

“If we go on like this, we’ll have to pay coins as wedding gifts! Our goat can’t give that!”

“You’re saying you’re going to ruin the wedding? Can we literally destroy it?”

“You guys are f*cking ruining your lives!!!”

Jeong Bia pulled her hair out in frustration and whispered quietly.

“But how should we resolve this now?”

“How do you think?”

We’re going to do it our way.

It’s time for some action.

“Intruder! Call for more men!”

“Corner them so they can’t escape!”

Currently, intruders were running rampant in the Succubus Mansion.

Though small in number at just five, they had taken down the guards at the main gate, indicating they had some level of skill.

They were now racing through the mansion.

“Which way should we go?”

“This way!”

“They’re on our tail! Run faster!”

Though they paused occasionally, their pace didn’t slow.

With each crash of their steps against the mansion’s luxurious decor, the shrill screams of the residents poured out, but they had no time to spare on that.

“Wait just a bit! I’ll come save you soon!”

Certainly, this mansion was flaunting its size and not being modest.

A lot of time had passed since they broke in.

By now, it would have been reasonable to give up, but the resolve of the five hadn’t faltered.

Perhaps their efforts weren’t in vain, as they finally reached their destination.

“Here it is!”

“You mean it’s inside here?”

Grabbing the doorknob with trembling hands, they pulled it open with all their might.

However…

“No!!!”

It was already too late.

Before their eyes unfolded an unbelievable and utterly unacceptable scene.

“Haa… haah! Hoooh!”

At first, they couldn’t recognize who it was, but the half-on clothes belonged to someone they used to see often.

It was her, breathing heavily and letting out soft moans, still tangled with the other party.

That image was enough to break the resolve of the group.

To make matters worse, it seemed the succubi had already anticipated their arrival, as many were waiting inside the room.

A man with scars on his face steeled himself.

“I won’t lose! I’ll definitely bring you back!”

With those words, numerous succubi clashed with the five.

The five put up a commendable fight, but this time it was hard to overturn the numbers.

Although amidst the fierce resistance, the sounds of gunfire and various screams of the succubi echoed, there were no twists of fate.

Soon enough, the intruders were completely overwhelmed by the succubi.

After subduing them, a woman strolled toward the defeated intruders, clicking her heels leisurely.

Her outfit exposed her shoulders and back. Her long, lustrous black hair gleamed like pitch.

She had slightly larger wings and a tail than the other succubi.

Finally, everything combined into an incredibly enchanting appearance.

However, the chilling gaze from her green pupils naturally pressured everyone to kneel.

It was the Succubus Queen.

The one true being who reigned over all succubi, their mother.

Also known as the Night Queen.

She softly addressed the subdued intruders.

“Do you know what you’re doing?”

“Let us go!!!”

As the intruders flailed about, the succubi holding them down attempted to knock them out by hitting their heads.

However, one man with a scar on his face seemed to have a hard head, causing the succubi to wince in slight pain instead.

Whether the succubi felt that pain or not, the last remaining member vented his frustration.

“This can’t be happening!!!”

However, the Succubus Queen didn’t bat an eye at his outburst.

With a wave of her hand, she dismissively replied.

“Get rid of them.”

“Yes! Lady!”

“Stop!!! You promised you would save us!!!”

Unfortunately, their desperate pleas went unanswered.

With that, their last flicker of hope was extinguished, and they found themselves chased out by the succubi.

The Succubus Queen then turned to the nearest succubus, seemingly curious.

“So who are they?”

“They say they came to rescue their brother who owes a huge debt and has been transformed into a woman by TS.”

“So they came looking for someone who turned into a woman to pay off a debt with the TS beam.”

“That seems to be the case.”

“Hmm. I see.”

At that moment.

“Lady!!! We have a problem!!!”

The door burst open as a succubus rushed into the room, breathless.

Her outfit was disheveled, and she looked quite frantic, as if she had stumbled while running.

“Why are you making a fuss?”

The Succubus Queen scolded her a little.

However, the information that followed was enough to shake the Succubus Queen.

“The bride has disappeared!!!”

“What? Ayeon?”

The bride, who was the star of the upcoming wedding.

She had vanished.
