From the meeting room, I sent the hunters straight to the S-rank dungeon. One of the few dungeons that was still available. And here, with the support of my shadows, they started gaining "experience" in order to level up as soon as possible. And, of course, I also kept an eye on them, replenishing my army. Needless to say, the hunters were quite surprised when they realised exactly how I was increasing the size of my army.

- You... is this necromancy? - Jong In was surprised.

- Something like that. - I nod at him. - And, on that subject, I have a favour to ask of you.....

The men eyed me suspiciously.

- If you die during the war with the Monarchs, can I call you back to this world?

- What? You can summon people too...'' Yunho hesitated.

- Yes.

Just then, the assassin Dae Shik appeared from the shadows to demonstrate.

- My King. - He bowed.

- That guy was an assassin. - I explained. - He also wanted to kill me as a witness and a few others. And, in fact, this is no longer the man he was when he was alive. It's more like a copy of him, created with the Monarch's power.

- Hey! - Yunho exclaimed indignantly. - What are you talking about? We're not that easy to kill!

- Hmm, perhaps you just don't quite realise the power of Monarchs.'' - I shook my head. - When we finish clearing this dungeon, I'll show you what we have to deal with.

In the meantime, the hunt was going to take considerably longer than if I had been mopping up on my own. But now, my job was to strengthen my allies to the minimum level where they could stand up to the Monarchs' armies. But I wasn't going to spend too much time on that. I'd help them get used to it first, and then they'd take it from there. In addition, they still hadn't fully extracted the power of their sources. The hunters were related to the lower ranked Overlords. But, after pumping, they might be able to extract the power of the shards.

Chairman Gu Hee is the carrier of the strongest shard, but he is simply unable to withstand all of its power. Perhaps one of these guys will soon be able to conduct the power of the shards of light into this world.

As for my promise...

It happened right here when we defeated the dungeon boss. But contrary to the hunters' expectations, the dungeon didn't start to collapse. On the contrary, its energy went into a special state, locking the gate.

- The red... gate?

- Yes, I promised to show you what the Monarchs can do. Hmm, first we need to get you cleaned up. Ber...

The hunters flinched when they saw the familiar monster.

- It's a...

- Yes. He also has the skills of a healer.

He got those skills when he ate the head of the Japanese hunter Shimizu. One of the characteristics of the Ant King is that it can adopt the abilities of those it devours. In fact, he was able to do so while he was alive.

- All right, now, Aesil! - I called out to my demoness as the hunters were healed.

In response to my call, one of my strongest shadows appeared.

- Master?

- Show them your power, don't kill anyone, but wipe the floors with them.

- Yes!" the demoness grinned bloodthirstily.

- ? What the...

Yun Ho hesitated for a moment and the next moment he was pierced by a spear.

Esil is quite mild with me, even affectionate. But she's a demon. And now the girl revealed her bloodthirsty side. She didn't aim to kill anyone, but her attacks were harsh and traumatising. The leader of the Tigers started to turn into a monster already after receiving several spear jabs through her armour. Even though his organs were not injured, he was already bleeding, turning into the likeness of an anthropomorphic lion.

- This is not a training exercise. - I thought I'd make a clarification. - I just want to show you what we're up against. And as you fight Aesil, keep in mind that she is held back, and even with all her power she is weaker than the Monarchs.

Though, the latter was a bit of a sly point, as Aesil is learning new powers very quickly and will soon equal or even surpass Baran in power.

- Damn, what the... why is she so strong? - Shouted the tank.

It tried to push Aesil back.

But...

The demoness delivered a fierce attack, punching through several of the hunter's joints. His right arm was torn to shreds and was now held on scraps of flesh, while his left arm was cut off completely.

- Gha...

- Flames!

Jong In gathers the fire in his hands. And Aesil even lets him finish the spell. But as the fireball flew at her, the girl lunged, creating a stream of fierce white plasma that split the hunter's fireball. After that the demoness dashed towards him and, spinning her spear with a deadly mill, cut off both of the mage's arms with the blade of her weapon.

The last to be dealt with was the swordswoman.

But even she... putting everything on speed and agility, couldn't keep up with the demoness.

Piercing her stomach, the spear went through, and Aesil lifted her opponent up. The girl coughed up blood and could no longer continue the fight. She wasn't the only one. All the hunters had suffered severe injuries and wounds that would cause them to die soon. And none of them could fight anymore.

- Ber, heal them.

- Hear and obey. - The insectoid said respectfully.

And now, after the healing, the hunters looked at me with much more apprehension. One of my shadows had turned them into useless pieces of meat in less than a minute.

- As you can see, you can't even stand up to a single Chaos army commander. The Monarchs are much stronger.

- What the hell? - Yun Ho exhaled hoarsely.

- Actually, you don't have to fight the Monarchs. I'll take care of that. Your task will just be to... survive.....

- What?

- Survive and save as many people as you can so that by the end of the Monarchs' war, there will be at least some people left to revive human civilisation.

The tank was dumbfounded.

I just spread my hands.

And, since then, I should note, these hunters began to pump much harder. And after that, through them, I also passed the system to other strong enough hunters of their guilds. Thus, while the strongest hunters were training in the higher ranked dungeons, the weaker hunters were training in the weaker dungeons. Not that it would affect the overall picture much, but by the time of the invasion, the Korean group of hunters would be somewhat stronger, which would play a role in the war.

However, they are still human and they still need rest.

- You've done a great job. - I remarked, turning to the swordswoman.

- Thank you..." She stretched awkwardly, averting her gaze.

- Do you mind if I buy you lunch?

- Ah... d-yes...

A grown-up girl, but she was embarrassed like an innocent schoolgirl. It was kind of interesting.

Some of Hae In's behaviour reminded me of Aseel's awkwardness. But anyway, for now, we just had lunch together. I didn't rush things, and the girl herself wasn't ready for something more, even though she seemed interested in me.

- By the way... would you mind training together?

- Training? - The girl was surprised.

- Yeah, you're... probably one of the best swordsmen in Korea. Even though I'm a summoner, I also use my sword in battle.

- I don't mind...

It's worth mentioning that she was really good.

I surpassed her in strength, speed, stamina, reaction... but not in skill. It's not so clear-cut, though. In one-on-one combat, we were almost equals. Training with the Igris made even more of a difference than Ashborn's legacy. But in a mass slaughter, when you are surrounded by many opponents, here I was much stronger than Hae-Yin. At the same time, the girl herself felt more confident when surrounded by monsters. This kind of fighting was more in line with her experience. However, her sword technique itself is not really designed for such battles and is more focused on one-on-one duels.

All in all, we had a good time.

And, I also decided to pay attention to my girlfriend. And one other person.

The meeting was scheduled at the park.

Hee Jin was obviously happy to see me.

- How are you doing? - I asked calmly.

- I... in the last raid my level went up a few times... thank you. - She replied gratefully.

As part of the White Tiger guild, she also received a system from me. And perhaps for the chance to increase her own strength, she was especially grateful to me. This opportunity was something she valued more than the status and money she could get from our relationship.

- Jin Woo? - The voice of the other girl who had just approached trembled.

- Ju Hee. - I smiled weakly at her. - I'm glad you came.

Frowning, she looked resentfully at my brunette companion. The sorceress herself looked back at me somewhat confused.

- Um... okay, Hee Jin, this is Ju Hee, my ex....

- Ah... - The sorceress was confused. - Nice to meet you?

Her voice sounded unsure, but she maintained her politeness by making a welcoming bow. Ju Hee responded in the same way, but her gesture was cold.- Why did you call me? - She frowned even more.

Although I admit I was a little touched that she immediately agreed to this meeting and came as if it was a date. Perhaps she assumed that I wanted to rekindle our relationship as it had been before. And given her character, it would have been quite likely if I had just broken up with Hee Jin. But anyway, that's not why I invited them both here.

- We have a lot to talk about. It's not about our relationship... except... a little.

- What?

- Right now, the top guilds are busy training together. And for good reason... we'll soon be in for the biggest shock since the opening of the first gate.

Hee Jin frowned.

Yes, the guild hunters are now pumping themselves up as well, but they don't know all the information yet.

- We may not be together anymore, but I'm still worried about you...'' I said to the blue-eyed brown-haired girl. - That's why I called you here. It's not a date. I just want to protect you.

- What are you talking about? - Ju Hee raised her eyebrows.

- Let's walk around...I'll try to explain everything to you.

And basically, I told them the same thing I told the guild leaders.

- There might be an invasion in just a few months, armies of chaos, hordes of monsters even more powerful than those in the gate will break into our world. It could well be called the end of the world. The world as we know it will be destroyed. And few will survive.

- Is there... is there nothing we can do? - The healer is worried.

- I'm trying to prepare. I also want to strengthen the other hunters so they have a better chance of survival.

I had the idea of sounding the alarm to the world. And by convincing world leaders, I could open a gateway to safer worlds to evacuate people. But such a massive operation would weaken me. And the Monarchs are bound to take advantage of that. And if they overpower me, they'll get to the people they've saved sooner or later. So I can only evacuate relatively small groups of people before judgement day. And try to minimise casualties by reinforcing my allies and replenishing my own troops.

- But, is all this true? - Hee Jin was sceptical.

- Yes...

The gate is opening behind me.

- Let's go. I opened this gate so that you can become stronger before the invasion. This way, you'll have a better chance of survival. And Ju Hee.

I hold out my hand to her and, from my palm comes a stream of dark spell threads that have been woven into the new design of the system.

- What... is... - The girl is stunned. - Characteristics?

- This system was created by one of the best chaos mages. With its help, both of you can become much stronger in record time. Now... let's go.

For the first time, I didn't want to give the girls a marathon for a few months. Although, Hee Jin was prepared for that too. She already has that kind of experience thanks to my training at the red gate.

- Ju Hee, you might have already noticed, the system allows you to not only increase your strength, but also direct its development. You can learn both support magic, attack spells, and warrior skills.

- I... - The girl hesitated.

- Yes, I remember... it's complicated for you... I don't want you to fight in the front lines, but I'll feel better if you become stronger. And before we go any further.

I used my new spells to attach new weaves to the girls' souls through the system. Passive skills magical equipment and titles that will make them even stronger. Other hunters receive similar gifts as well, but everyone's effects vary in strength. After all, these skills are powered by the energy of the "player" himself, and so the stronger the hunter, the more powerful his effects will be.

- Shadow Lady? - Hee Jin smirked.

- So what? I don't have a particularly rich imagination. - I shrugged my shoulders.

That was the name of the title the sorceress was given.

- Hnn... - Ju Hee glanced at me unhappily.

- Do you have the same one? - The brunette was interested.

- No. - The healer still grumbled unhappily.

- Why...

- Nothing.

- She has the title "ex." - I explained.

- Pfft.

Grinning cheerfully, the sorceress moved closer to me, enclosing me in a gentle embrace.

- Thank you. - She whispered into my lips.

Then she thanked me with a kiss. My hand habitually grabbed the girl by her slim waist.

- We'll leave the tenderness for later. - I said, breaking away from the lips of the sorceress.

It's not nice to caress Ju Hee like that. She looks like she's going to cry. Even Hee Jin felt a little embarrassed.

- I'm sorry about that..." I said apologetically. - Let's continue training. I'll help you now. And then you can develop your own dungeons, or you can contact me and I'll open the gate for us again.

Even though it was practically a real raid, just not for resources but for pumping, I felt like I was on a date with two stunning beauties. Still, both girls looked amazing.

Their pumping, on the other hand, was progressing at a pretty fast pace. Their bodies were quite ready to develop, so I gave them quests to destroy monsters and, when the quests were completed, both girls immediately received a lot of free points to distribute among their characteristics.

- Even with specialisation, I advise you to distribute points more or less evenly.

- Ah... uh-huh... - Hee Jin nodded.

- I think we can call it a day. And you're probably tired and hungry by now. Can I buy you a treat? Or can I give you a lift home?

A gate opened right in front of us and we were back in the park. A shadow began to ripple beneath my feet. Black claws appeared nearby, and Kaisel looked like he was ready to flap his wings and take off at any moment.

- I don't... - Ju Hee started, but was silenced when a hungry rumbling sounded. - I'm sorry.

- It's okay. I'm the one who called you and made you train. It's no wonder you're hungry. Let's have a bite to eat then, and then I'll send you home.

- Hmm, dinner at a restaurant? With two hotties at once? - Hee Jin smiled slyly.

I, on the other hand, only shrugged my shoulders.

- Ju Hee, I'm not obligating you to anything. It's not a romantic dinner. Just showing concern for my fellow hunters.

- Y-yes... okay. - The girl nodded.

At the same time, the sorceress continued to grin contentedly. Her look said "of course, of course, I believe you" and poured tonnes of sarcasm on me. But, anyway, dinner happened and I took both girls to eat at the restaurant. It wasn't bad, Ju Hee, who was used to home-cooked food, enjoyed the restaurant dish. I, on the other hand, was starting to long for home cooking a bit. I'll have to ask Igris to cook something when I get home.

- Ehhh..." I sighed.

- What? Hee Jin noticed my sigh.

- I just remembered how amazing Ju Hee's cooking is.

The healer herself could hardly contain a smile as she remembered those days.

And anyway, we limited ourselves to that for now. It was only after dinner that I took the girls to their homes, as promised.

- Woah... - Ju Hee squeaked fearfully, crouching down and grabbing the horny protrusions on Kaisel's back with her hands.

- Haha, this is unbelievable! - Hee Jin exclaimed cheerfully.

- Yeah, I probably have the coolest car in Korea.

- Ha, that's right!

- Ju Hee, don't worry, nothing will happen to you.

I sat down next to her and stroked her shoulders. Afterwards, I helped her to her feet by putting my arm around her waist. The healer didn't even think of breaking free, on the contrary, she felt much calmer in my arms. Soon we could see her house.

- If you don't mind, I'll pick you up tomorrow for another training session as well.

- I... don't mind. - Ju Hee sighed.

That was the end of our meeting today.

But only with the healer. Because after I left her at home, the sorceress was alone with me. I also took her home, but I stopped by to see her myself. Hee Jin was in a great mood. Having received such a gift as an opportunity to become even stronger, she was going to thank me with all her passion.

So, we spent that night together, which we were very happy about.

The very next day our training was repeated again. And so for a whole week I accompanied the girls in the dungeons, helping them to become stronger. At the same time increasing the size of my own shadow army. Separately, I met with Hae In, with whom we arranged duels and fought purely on swords.

I should note that during this time our relationship with Ju Hee also warmed up a bit.

Even though we broke up, but...

She was clearly happy to have my attention.

And even though I sometimes repeated that I have no claim on her and just for old memory want to sincerely help, which was partly true, it did not prevent me to start courting her again. After training, I took both girls to various restaurants for dinner. One time, however, I arranged a dinner just inside the gate, where Igris and I cooked meat over a fire. This particular dinner was probably the best.

We even had a few drinks, and the wine helped Ju Hee loosen up a bit. And she wasn't the only one.

Hee Jin was quite calm and even watched with some interest as I pressed the healer to me in a rather intimate embrace. And with what pleasure I caressed her body again. My ex was still as beautiful as ever.

- Jin Woo... - The girl exhaled excitedly.

We hadn't discussed the state of our relationship. Perhaps it was too awkward for her. But putting the words aside, she favourably accepted my caress. And as I leaned in to kiss her lips, the girl herself nestled into me.

My caresses were gentler at first, but gradually they became more commanding.

Ju Hee shuddered sensually as my palm travelled up her body, stroking her waist and eventually grasping the girl's firm breasts. And after that...

- Hee Jin. - I called out to the brunette.

And she obediently reached for me so I could grab the girl and hold them both against me. The darkness surged and swallowed our company, so that the next moment we were already in the bedroom of the sorceress. It should be noted that her house was quite large and, in some ways, more luxurious than Hee Jin's flat. Well, I have my sister and mother at home. So, the choice fell on the apartment of my beautiful green-eyed brunette.

- Ahh... - Ju Hee moaned sensuously, finding herself on the bed, pressed against it by my body.

- I won't let you go now... - I whispered, touching her ear with my lips.

I greedily clenched one of her breasts in my hand while the other deftly pulled off her clothes.

Hee Jin was comfortably seated next to me, but she was aware of the situation and didn't hurry to demand attention while I was busy with the healer. Soon she was almost completely naked, while my clothes disappeared into the darkness, disappearing into my inventory.

Leaning towards her, I brushed my lips against the girl's body, showering her with kisses. She was almost ready for more, though. Her lovely pussy was oozing with moisture, and a little more caressing made Ju Hee almost wriggle under me with pleasure.

- Jin-woo..." she whispered passionately, pulling me into a tight embrace.

I snuggled into her gorgeous thighs, nestling into her wet mink.

- Oaahhhh..." She sighed hotly, pressing her lips to my neck as I penetrated her bosom.

Moaning even louder, Ju Hee pressed her hot thighs against me and hooked her legs around my waist. As I began to rhythmically move my pelvis, sliding into her pussy. At that moment I was just overwhelmed with a sweet sense of triumph. For a while, I felt as if Ju Hee and I had broken up for good. And, of course, I longed for her. But now I could enjoy her body again. And I was also sure that she would remain my girlfriend afterwards, despite the strangeness of our relationship. She wouldn't be able to push me away this time.

- Ahhhh...

The thrusts got stronger and stronger until finally the moment of peak tension came.

Practically pushing the girl into the bed, lifting up, I grabbed her breasts, squeezing them in my hands. And, the next moment, making another thrust, I poured inside her. The pulse of orgasm surged through my nerves like a lightning strike that brought only pleasure. My aura surged in response to the surge. And the girl beneath me shuddered, feeling the voluptuous rush that made her cum.

Her hair spread so seductively across the bed as the girl arched her back, biting her lip. The muscles in her body were tense in a pleasurable shiver and, letting go of Ju Hee's breasts, I enjoyed running my palms over her tense torso, stroking her waist and rubbing her thighs.

Somehow, I wasn't really worried about her getting pregnant after this night. I didn't use protection, determined to enjoy her flesh to the fullest. Now was not the time to be planning for the future. Soon enough, this world could be destroyed. And I would either die or be victorious. And then, a possible addition to the family is ridiculous compared to what's coming to this world. So... I just relaxed and let things play out. Whatever happens, but today I decided to fully enjoy my girls.

- Hee Jin. - I called out to the sorceress.

Still feeling some trembling in my body, I switched to the second girl, who had already undressed, remaining in just her underwear.

And soon the brunette was on top of the shade girl. While Ju Hee was lying relaxed on the bed, Hee Jin got on all fours, right on top of her. I raised myself up, stroking the sorceress's legs and pulling up her black panties and sliding them down.

- Mmhhhh...

Running my hands around her waist, I adjusted myself to the brunette's wet slit and leaned in, greedily grabbing the girl's juicy breasts, entering her sharply.

With a new thrust, Hee Jin couldn't stand it any longer and lapped at my first girl's body.

- Ahhh... this... - Ju Hee's face flooded with the colour of shame.

I enjoyed seeing their hot bodies pressed against each other. From this picture my cock became even more active and, continuing to pound into Hee Jin's pussy, I soon cummed again, filling the girl's hole with my semen.

And then...

Already feeling some exhaustion in my groin, I slipped between the two beauties.

My cock found itself wedged between their bodies, touching the pussies of both girls. And with a firm grip on Hee Jin's waist, I began to move again.

- Ahh! - Ju Hee squealed sensuously.

It was just amazing.

Although it took me a little longer to stimulate myself this time, I ended up cumming again, spilling my seed all over both girls at once.

That didn't mean I was completely exhausted, though....

I just needed a little time out to recharge.

And then back into the fight.
