Kwon Jihan uses the skill
Kwon Jihan views your profile.
Kwon Jihan confirmed with his own eyes that Yoon Seo's status abnormalities had disappeared. Yoon Seo firmly supported him as he continued to stagger, still in a daze.
"Look at you wobbling. Get a grip."
"..."
"He call it
'Then just come to me again. I'll get rid of it as many times as needed.'
"..."
Kwon Jihan bit his lip, a muscle twitching in his jaw. His gray eyes welled with tears, and soon they streamed down his cheeks.
Yoon Seo gently cupped his face and wiped away the tears.
When you hear that a loved one's incurable illness has been cured, anyone would cry, even the world's strongest S-rank hunter, as helpless as this.
"I know how much you've suffered all this time. I'm sorry… but now… you don't need to worry anymore."
"…Yeah, seriously. I suffered more than you, hyung."
"I admit that."
"It feels good to be acknowledged, but it's also annoying."
"Why are you getting annoyed after hearing such good news?"
"Exactly. Damn."
Kwon Jihan roughly wiped his eyes, and then pulled Yoon Seo into a tight hug again, whispering in his ear.
"I'm really relieved."
"..."
Yoon Seo patted Kwon Jihan's broad back. Kwon Jihan, unable to contain his overwhelming emotions, exhaled hot breaths as he muttered,
"I… briefly forgot because I was so blinded."
"..."
"That the world is finally becoming a place where kindness is returned."
His voice, soaked with emotion, held many feelings, but there was no trace of the despair from earlier.
It was filled with happiness, brilliance, and reverence.
There was an overwhelming sense of awe and faith in the world.
Yoon Seo was truly grateful that he could protect Kwon Jihan's love for this world.
The God of Love sheds tears.
The God of Life celebrates the disappearance of your status abnormalities.
The God of Death regrets the disappearance of your status abnormalities.
The Watcher smiles.
Amidst the commotion among the guardian gods, Yoon Seo gently pushed Kwon Jihan's shoulder.
"Step back for a moment. I've got one more gift for you."
Kwon Jihan hesitantly stepped back, and Yoon Seo pulled out the item from his inventory.
Peep!
Riceball, overjoyed, flitted around excitedly. No, more than flitting, it rubbed its feathers against the item, as if trying to embrace something far too big for its body.
"…What is this? An egg?"
"It's an egg that will soon become an ego weapon."
After confirming that his healing resistance had disappeared, the first thing Yoon Seo wanted to do was see his lover's face. But since he was in the dungeon, Yoon Seo decided to visit a friend instead.
In the lab, where mad scientists busily moved about, Yoon Seo stared at Lee Domin's shoes, lost in thought, when Lee Seokyoung came to him.
'Seo Chaeyoon. Why haven't you been answering your calls? I've been looking for you.'
'Sorry. What's going on?'
'I have something to give you.'
What Lee Seokyoung handed to Yoon Seo was an egg with a red hue.
It wasn't tied to anyone like his chain whip but rather a completely new 'Spirit'.
'I found two eggs back then. One I used for myself, and the other I kept without binding it.'
'Why didn't you bind both? There's no limit on the number of bindings.'
'One is enough for me. I kept the other one for a hunter who could use it better than me. At the time, they were inside the Great Dungeon, so I couldn't give it to them, but now I can.'
'…Thank you. But I can't use it. Riceball would pluck all my hair out. Instead, I have a hunter I'd like to recommend.'
Lee Seokyoung smiled knowingly.
'Kwon Jihan?'
'Oh, you already know? And it's not because he's my boyfriend—he really is the best person for it.'
'…My little sister's been boasting that now that I've returned, with Seo Chaeyoon and Kwon Jihan in Korea, we're the strongest nation in the universe. But I didn't know you two were lovers… Thirteen years really do change a lot…'
The new 'Spirit' that Yoon Seo received was now in Kwon Jihan's hands.
Peep peep!
Riceball, still flitting around, finally settled on top of the egg, as if it were trying to nurture it. From the moment it first saw the egg, Riceball seemed convinced it had to take care of it, repeatedly burying it within its white feathers.
Kwon Jihan chuckled, a bit helplessly.
"…I feel like I shouldn't be the one receiving this."
"And why not? Go ahead, bind it."
"Hmm…"
If you give one part kindness and get two in return, and especially if you hesitated to give in the first place, it would make anyone feel awkward like this.
But in the end, you can repay the kindness that overflows by giving it to someone else. And when it comes back around again someday, you can pass it on once more. In time, the world will be filled with beauty.
Kwon Jihan has bound the item "Morning Sunlight's Spirit."
Morning Sunlight's Spirit
Grade: S-rank
This powerful weapon is crafted just for you. It can change forms without limit to suit your desires.
* Currently in item/egg form.
* Bound to you.
* Inactive. Needs sufficient attunement.
After confirming the 'Spirit' was bound, Yoon Seo nodded.
"Let's go now. Let's head home."
"Okay, hyung."
His voice was thick with emotion. His eyes were red, and more tears rolled down as Kwon Jihan quickly wiped them away, muttering, 'Ugh, again.'
Yoon Seo realized anew—Kwon Jihan's tearful face was also lovely.
***
A small, round, blue bird nestled on top of a small, round, red egg, chirping 'Peep, peep.'
Riceball refused to leave the egg all day. Even so, it still wanted to be petted, so Kwon Jihan and Yoon Seo, in between their tasks, would go to the cradle when the time came and give Riceball plenty of affection. At mealtimes, they had to use chopsticks to pick up mealworms and bring them right in front of Riceball's beak.
By nighttime, it seemed uncomfortable for Riceball to nest on the egg in its bird form, so it transformed into a white snake. Coiling around the egg protectively, Yoon Seo smiled at the sight.
"Anyone would think you laid it yourself."
Peep.
"Want to sleep here with the egg?"
Peep peep.
"Alright. Goodnight, Riceball."
Peep peep.
Yoon Seo lightly patted the small snake's yawning head before leaving the room.
Kwon Jihan stood in the living room, his expression more determined than usual.
"Riceball wants to sleep in there?"
"Yeah."
"..."
"..."
Their gazes locked, sparks flying between them. The two hurried toward the bedroom.
Lee Seokyoung had helped them three times already.
The first time was Yoon Seo's healing resistance.
The second time was Kwon Jihan's ego weapon.
And the third time was Riceball's new companion.
Riceball had completely fallen for the new Spirit. All its attention was focused there. It even slept with the egg now.
At long last, tonight was the night the two could finally be together.
Screech….
Kwon Jihan carefully closed the bedroom door, making sure not to disturb the nosy snake. Yoon Seo, already taking out the gel, thought to himself,
'It's really happening now.'
Suddenly, his heart pounded in his chest. Kwon Jihan would probably hear it, but he didn't mind. After all, Kwon Jihan's heart had been racing since before they arrived home. If Kwon Jihan wasn't an S-rank hunter, Yoon Seo might've taken him to the hospital immediately.
As Kwon Jihan turned from closing the door, the waistband of his pants was already tight and strained.
Seeing Yoon Seo already undressed and lying on the bed, Kwon Jihan muttered in a low voice.
"Looks like you're in a hurry too, hyung."
Kwon Jihan began undressing as he approached. First, he pulled off his shirt, throwing it aside, then he loosened the string of his training pants. Yoon Seo admired Kwon Jihan's beautiful body—thick chest muscles and arms lined with prominent veins. And then…
"It's really big."
"Why are you acting like it's a surprise?"
Kwon Jihan climbed onto the bed. He moved closer on his knees, pressing his lips against Yoon Seo's first. Yoon Seo wrapped his arms around Kwon Jihan's neck, exploring his mouth. But they'd already kissed plenty before, and something else was more urgent now, so it didn't last long. Kwon Jihan's hand moved down to Yoon Seo's lower back, tracing along his spine. Yoon Seo could feel his entire body responding to Kwon Jihan's fingertips, as if a fiery trail was left on his skin.
"Haa…"
When Kwon Jihan's hot breath brushed against his ear, Yoon Seo's nerves gathered there all at once.
"This is driving me crazy. My hands are already shaking."
"Right? Why are you trembling so much? It's like we're about to go to war or something."
"Hyung, you're shaking too."
"…Just hurry and put it in."
"Alright, I'm putting it in now."
Kwon Jihan spread some gel on his fingers. Yoon Seo, lying down, spread his legs wide open. Seeing Kwon Jihan's Adam's apple bob up and down, Yoon Seo let out a small laugh, but Kwon Jihan didn't even crack a smile. His eyes gleamed like a tiger staring down its prey, and Yoon Seo's laughter vanished.
When Kwon Jihan settled between his legs, Yoon Seo tensed a little.
"I'm putting it in."
Kwon Jihan's voice was already strained, as if he hadn't done anything yet. Yoon Seo couldn't laugh anymore—three fingers slid inside at once.
"Ugh…"
"Does it hurt?"
"No… ugh…"
Everything about Kwon Jihan was big, so even his three fingers felt overwhelming. As his fingers pressed against Yoon Seo's inner walls, Yoon Seo gripped the bedsheets tightly.
"Ugh, stop pressing there. You already know where I feel it."
"I'm just making sure."
"You've checked enough. Hurry up and put it in."
"You always tell me to hurry, but from my perspective, it's not that simple. You're struggling with just my fingers. How can I just go for it?"
At that, Kwon Jihan, who had been sitting up, lowered himself onto Yoon Seo. Their chests pressed against each other. Kwon Jihan wrapped one hand around Yoon Seo's head, kissing him deeply, while the other hand worked inside him until his inner walls softened.
Yoon Seo's stiffened erection rubbed against Kwon Jihan's abs. Yoon Seo barely managed to hold back from climaxing too soon. When he thought he couldn't hold out any longer, Kwon Jihan finally pulled his fingers out. Then, he grabbed his cock.
Adding a bit of exaggeration, he grasped his cock, almost as thick as his forearm, and laid it on Yoon Seo's lower abdomen.
Kwon Jihan's cock extended past Yoon Seo's lower stomach, reaching slightly above his navel.
"Once it's inside, it's different. It won't actually reach all the way up here."
"Who's saying anything?"
"It's just… your expression."
"What about my expression?"
Yoon Seo grasped Kwon Jihan's cock, squeezing it. It was hot, firm, and thick. Definitely something you could describe as a weapon.
"I was probably thinking it looks delicious."
"…I'm going crazy, seriously."
Kwon Jihan chuckled softly, not taking his eyes off Yoon Seo's face. Yoon Seo arched his back slightly, offering himself to him.
Kwon Jihan grabbed Yoon Seo's buttocks with both hands, spread them apart, and with a single thrust, invaded him quickly and deeply.
"Ugh…!"
Yoon Seo's head fell back. His hole stretched to its limit, struggling to accommodate the thick length. It wasn't his rear that felt blocked; it was like his breath was getting stuck.
The inside throbbed with a heaviness, the sensation of being stretched just by the intrusion itself. He couldn't tell whose pulse it was, but it was vibrating intensely. The heat made his body feel like it was melting.
Kwon Jihan kept pushing himself deeper inside.
Yoon Seo lifted his head slightly to look down. His lower abdomen had bulged out slightly. And surprisingly, Kwon Jihan's cock was still only partially inside.
"Don't worry, hyung. I'll make sure to fit this delicious-looking thing all the way in."
"W-Wait, hold on. Ah…!"
