Episode 24: I Didn’t Know It Felt This Good…! I’ve Been Missing Out for Centuries…!
“Urgh! Whip buff!!”
“Woof woof…!!”
Thanks to her trait, Pomi gets a buff from being whipped.
The more she’s lashed, the faster she goes.
Crack! Crack!!
“She’s getting endlessly faster?! This sturdy bitch!! Is it for real that she’s zooming so easily?!?!”
“W-Wait! She’s too fast!”
“Huh? We’ve gotta go this hard to catch up!!”
“Eek!”
Scared, Seol Harin instinctively clung to Kim Taeyang’s arm.
Holding onto something big and solid seemed to calm her a bit.
Meanwhile, Lashara, being swung in Kim Taeyang’s hand, was swept up in a strange sensation.
Crack!
‘Ooh…’
Crack!!
‘Ooooh…!’
Crack…!!!
‘Hieeek…?!’
Every time she struck Pomi’s fluffy fur, an inexplicable pleasure surged through her…!
‘This feeling… I’ve never felt anything like it before… Why does it feel this way when he wields me…?’
The Goddess of Punishment.
The solemn Guardian of Discipline.
She’d always believed her body was made to punish criminals.
But now—
‘Am I… not made for punishment… but to make others feel good…?’
Lashara had thought herself a righteous constellation.
A deity of justice born to punish the wicked.
But Pomi had done nothing wrong.
Whipping her solely for her pleasure, to make someone happy, felt this good!
It was a sense of fulfillment worlds apart from beating petty delinquents…!
‘I didn’t know it felt this good…! I’ve been missing out for centuries…!’
The pleasure was enough to shake her very foundation.
Lashara was slowly realizing her true identity.
She wasn’t some Goddess of Punishment.
Just an adult toy made for pleasure, crafted to make others happy…!
‘I hope Pomi wins…!!!’
“Hey, Kkubburi! You’re finally waking up to your true nature!! Heh heh heh!!”
“Tch, that’s not it…”
“Huh? You think just saying that makes it true?! Your mouth’s gaping from how good it feels!!!”
Indeed, Lashara’s tiny mouth was wide open.
Once (°꒫°),
Now (°á—œ°).
Lashara hurriedly hardened her expression.
But she couldn’t hide the beads of sweat dripping down.
(°꒫°);;;
“You… You planned this from the start…”
“Heh heh heh. Just figuring that out, Kkubburi?! No use denying it!! Discipline, punishment—you weren’t made for some noble cause!!! You’re just a vulgar SM whip made to please others!!!!”
Crack! Crack!!
Even as she denied his words, she couldn’t stop whipping Pomi.
‘Kiyooo…!!’
It just felt too good.
Lashara decided to fully enjoy this moment.
It’d only feel good for a short while, anyway.
Once the race ended, she thought she’d return to normal.
‘My convictions… won’t be erased so easily…’
While they bickered,
Pomi’s sled had climbed to second place.
“(Kailas! Look who’s catching up!!)”
Pomi barked loudly.
Kailas, glancing back, looked slightly startled.
But he wasn’t rattled.
Pomi caught a faint, sly grin.
That grin was proof Kailas was still a dirty dog.
Woof woof woof!!
Sure enough,
A pack of wolf-dogs burst out from the bushes.
A different species from sled dogs, hostile to Pomi’s kind.
“(The finish line’s so close… What do I do…?)”
Pomi was a strong sled dog.
She could handle a pack of assassin dogs alone.
The problem was the race.
Fighting them would stop the sled.
“(Master! Help!! I’m being attacked!!)”
Pomi sent a desperate signal.
Just barking, but Kim Taeyang understood perfectly.
“Hey, sow!! Time for us to step up!!!”
“What?! But…! Those wolf-dogs are constellations too! We can’t handle them!!”
“Huh?! What nonsense is that?! Leave the fighting to Pomi!!!”
“Then who’s pulling the sled?!”
“Of course, we’re pulling it!!!! What do you think all that weight training was for?!?!”
“?”
Woof woof!!!
“(Master’s a genius…!!)”
Kim Taeyang tagged in with Pomi.
Pomi broke free from the harness to fight the wolf-dogs,
While Kim Taeyang and Seol Harin pulled the sled alongside the remaining sled dogs.
“Hey!! Final sprint!!! Run like it’s the last moment of your doggy lives!!!!! Charge like you were born to win!!!!!”
Woof woof woof woof!!
Bark bark bark bark bark!!!
The sight of humans and dogs pulling the sled together!
A moment that would make any dog lover’s heart race!
‘We’re so close to winning…!’
Lashara was just as thrilled.
Victory seemed within reach.
Her body moved on its own, wildly lashing the nearby sled dogs.
It was an “awakening” triggered by intense pleasure.
“Hieeeeeek!!!!”
Whip-whip-whip-whip-whip!!!
Her speed was incredible, cracking the whip ten times a second.
Lashara lashed indiscriminately, hitting dogs and humans alike.
Kim Taeyang was immune to the whip, but…
“Kyaaa! Hitting me does nothing!!!”
Seol Harin teared up from the whipping.
Bark bark bark!!!
Pomi’s teammates, buffed by the whip, sped up even more.
“(Master! I’m back!!)”
Pomi, having defeated the assassin dogs, rejoined the team.
Only 10 meters to the finish line.
Kailas’s sled was slightly ahead.
Then, Kim Taeyang roared.
“URRRRRRAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!”
The deafening shout rattled Kailas’s dogs.
In contrast, Pomi and her team gained the strength to push harder.
“Run!! Keep running…!!”
Lashara’s frenzied whipping played a huge role.
And the result—
‘Incredible! Participant Kim Taeyang’s sled overtakes and crosses the finish line in first place!!’
They actually won.
As Pomi crossed the finish line, she transformed into her human form and hugged her master.
“Master, you’re an angel!!”
“Huh? You did all the work, so why’re you praising me? It’s embarrassing, heh heh heh.”
Pomi then tackle-hugged Seol Harin, licking her face.
For Pomi, who was usually cold to her former master, this affection was rare.
“Thanks, former master!!”
Soft!
“Ah…!”
Maybe it was Pomi’s soft touch or the long-awaited affection, but Seol Harin blushed slightly.
Meanwhile, Kim Taeyang gripped Lashara tightly.
“Hey, Kkubburi.”
“My name… is Lashara…”
She writhed in pleasure, resisting.
The overwhelming pleasure was the perfect chance for a close-up confession press…!
Kim Taeyang spoke in a serious tone.
“Everything I’m about to say is true.”
“…?”
“From the moment I saw you, I wanted you as my constellation.”
“Lies…”
“It’s true! I fell for your insanely hot flexibility at first sight…!”
“What a vulgar confession…”
“It might sound crude, but my heart’s genuine. You felt it too—Chloe didn’t awaken your true purpose. I did.”
Kim Taeyang pointed to himself,
Standing tall and confident.
“I… can’t deny that…”
“So, be my constellation.”
“…!”
“I’ll use you as an SM whip for life, so come to me!!!”
‘This guy… He might seem a bit rough, but… maybe he’s upright and honest…’
In that moment—
[Close-Up Confession Press Successful!]
[Relationship Score Increases by 100!]
Kim Taeyang’s relationship with Lashara skyrocketed.
The surge triggered her evolution—her humanization.
Poof!!
Lashara transformed into a woman amidst swirling smoke.
Wavy, fiery red hair.
Long bangs covering her eyes, giving a slightly gloomy vibe.
A shy face paired with a leather outfit that boldly exposed half her chest.
Her chest size? A step above even Pomi’s.
She was, in every way, the image of a mature woman.
“Hey, Kkubburi. You’re even hotter than I imagined…?”
“S-Stop with the nonsense… I’ll take you as my bound hero… But… don’t call me Kkubburi…”
It was true that Lashara had warmed up to Kim Taeyang.
But changing her name? That was a no-go.
Kim Taeyang, however, was persistent.
“Huh?! You fell for me in a single day and now you’re acting all high and mighty?! If you don’t wanna be called Kkubburi, get lost!! I’ll find another whip for the next sled race!!!”
‘No way…!’
Lashara was already addicted to “whipping Pomi.”
Hitting an excited Pomi during the race was the ultimate pleasure!
The confession press had sparked a desire to be loved by Kim Taeyang!
Finally, she lowered her head and mumbled softly.
“Kku… Kkubburi…”
“Hey, I said dance too! Don’t be all shy and boring—give me a fiery performance!!”
“Kkubburi, kkubburi~ Kkubburi is, from today, T-Taeyang-nim’s bound constellation~”
Lashara put her hands behind her head and swayed her hips.
Her face was beet red, but she forced a smile, barely enduring the humiliation.
“Hahaha! Freaking hilarious?! Your wavy hair fits the name perfectly…!! You’d win a gold medal in a funny dance contest!! You’re a genius at making people happy, no doubt!!!”
“…?”
Kim Taeyang was delighted.
Surprisingly, that made Lashara feel good too.
‘He’s happy watching me dance…?’
[Lashara’s favorability greatly increases.]

[Lashara’s hidden trait, SM Whip, has been unlocked!]
◆ SM Whip
◆ Description
+ Lashara has become an SM Whip!
+ She now realizes her purpose is to “bring joy to others”!
◆ Effects
+ Lashara’s whipping boosts all stats of the target.
+ Lashara gains pleasure whenever the whipped target feels joy.
+ The greater Lashara’s pleasure, the stronger the stat-boost buff becomes.
Her trait had fully blossomed.
SM Whip.
That had become Lashara’s true nature…!
“Hee… hee…? T-Thank you…?”
“Hey! Keep dancing! It’s freaking hilarious!!”
She no longer knew what was what.
Was it embarrassment? Pleasure?
The line between them blurred.
“Kkubburi, kkubburi~”
She just followed her body and heart.
“Hahahaha! That’s the stuff! So deliciously vulgar!!”
“Heehee…!”
Either way, it was undeniably fun and rewarding.
***
After the race, we returned to Ark.
Pomi, exhausted, went back to Chloe, while Kkubburi, drained from intense stimulation and her first humanization, reverted to whip form to rest.
Alright, then.
Time for me to take a break…
“Hey, sow.”
“I’m listening.”
“You can sleep in tomorrow. No morning workout.”
Even an awakened body needs rest.
Especially after a night of heavy labor like today.
But Seol Harin, the fitness freak, seemed uneasy.
“No morning workout…? What about muscle loss?! Let me train alone at least!!”
“You idiot…! Stop acting like a gym bro just because you’ve worked out a bit!! It’s pathetic!! Don’t you know training, diet, and rest are all part of weightlifting?!?!”
“Tch… Fine. You shower first then.”
“?”
Shower first…?
I stared at Seol Harin, thinking I misheard.
She looked back, like, ‘What’s the problem?’
What the…?
“What’s with acting like it’s obvious I’d shower here, sow?! Go back to your dorm and shower!!!!”
“I’m too tired to walk to the girls’ dorm!! Can’t you let me crash here for one night?!!”
“Slaves don’t sleep with their masters!!! Back to the pigsty!!!!”
“I’m tired because of you, so you’re responsible!! A true master takes care of their slave’s health!!!”
Damn.
Why’s Seol Harin getting so shameless…?
Oh! She learned it from me…!
“Tch. What a pain in the ass… Fine, I’ll walk you back, so come on!”
“…Carry me and I’ll go.”
“Stop pushing it, sow!!!!”
“Ugh—fine!! Stop yelling! My ears are killing me…”
In the end, we compromised on “escorting her to the dorm” and “carrying Seol Harin’s bag and clothes.” I left the room with her.
On the way to the girls’ dorm, Seol Harin chattered away.
To be honest, I was hyped up too and joined in.
The main topic was, of course, the sled race.
“Did you see the faces of those nasty dogs after they got crushed? The look of losers who lost the gold medal—freaking hilarious, right? Heh heh heh.”
“Really? I was too busy celebrating to notice. I regret not taking pictures.”
I’ll admit now, playing Academia in real life is insanely fun.
Thinking about it, I’ve been rushing forward too much lately.
A day like today, with a gold medal in hand, would’ve been perfect for a beer.
I should make time for that soon…
“Anyway… today was really spectacular.”
“It was. Next time, It will be even more thrilling.”
“Another sled race?”
“Huh? It’s not just sled races! There’ll be times we help constellations like today.”
“That sounds so fun! Thanks to you, I’m getting these wild experiences!”
Seol Harin’s eyes widened with excitement.
A bright smile spread across her face, pure like an innocent kid’s.
She must’ve really had fun.
Seeing that prickly, haughty girl smile like that…
It kinda got me hyped too.
.
.
.
Back in my room, I sorted through the prizes.
A gold medal. And a collar.
[Winner’s Collar]
- A collar awarded only to the winner of the sled dog race.
- Increases obedience by 85 when worn.
- Grants the wearer a +10 bonus to all stats.
An obedience boost of 85.
100 means absolute compliance, so 85 is no small number.
It’d make someone do almost anything.
If I put it on Seol Harin and told her to “kneel naked,” she’d grumble but strip and bow.
…Actually, she might do that without the collar.
She’s a masochist, after all.
But that’s not the point.
This collar also comes with a small stat buff, making it super useful.
The only downside? If a human wears it, they’ll feel humiliated.
And I’d look like some slave trader…
If a tough heroine shows up later, I’ll use it then.
The surprising part was the gold medal.
“Heh heh heh. A gold medal’s just a gold medal, right? Who’d have thought it was an artifact too??”
The gold medal.
It was, shockingly, both a commemorative medal and an artifact.
[Empty Slot Gold Medal]
- Gift it to a lady, and she becomes the “lady who won the gold medal”!
- The slot is currently empty.
“Lady who won the gold medal”?
What’s that supposed to mean?
Looking closely, the medal had no engravings.
It was blank, like it hadn’t been designated for any specific achievement yet.
Trying to add something to the slot only gave a message: “No eligible recipient available.”
Kim Taeyang and the gold medal,
The gold medal and Kim Taeyang…
The connection was vague, elusive.
“You’d win a gold medal in a blowjob contest, huh.”
Sounds like something I’d say…
But I’ve got no clue what kind of power this artifact holds.
Guess I’ll try gifting it to Seol Harin tomorrow.
“Kkubbu… Kkubburi…”
Kkubburi, passed out on the desk, mumbled in her sleep.
Seems like the name’s stuck, even in her dreams.
Honestly, there was no real need to make her do the Kkubburi dance.
A humiliating dance like that could’ve lowered her favorability.
But there was a reason for it.
Chloe Maiden.
Now that Kkubburi’s NTR is complete,
Tomorrow, I’ll pay a visit to her “former master.”
With Kkubburi, fully dyed in my colors, by my side.
“Heh heh heh. Just thinking about it’s hilarious.”
That smug disciplinary president, Chloe Maiden.
I’ll make Kkubburi, now completely mine, dance in front of her.
That’ll trigger an NTR situation, and coins will pour in…
Since Chloe cherishes Kkubburi so much, the coin haul will be massive.
She’s a heroine who values her constellation even more than Seol Harin does.
Hey! The game’s already over!!
I’ll suck up those NTR coins and take you down too…!!!
