Necromancer Survival-Novel

Chapter 392

Frightened, I tried to push Koo Hui-seo away, but a thick tentacle shot out of his mouth and wrapped around my hand faster than I could move. Something slimy, like a tongue, touched my hand, and I immediately recoiled, clenching my fingers into a fist.

"G-Get off!" I tried to unwind the tentacle with my other hand, but the sensation of this soft, sticky thing touching my nearly healed, nearly clotted wound wouldn't disappear. Then, as the tingling sensation intensified, I felt as if my wound was being torn.

‘Damn, what's the difference between him and the other servants at this point?!'

Garam-ie, though his rampage proved to be a huge trouble, didn't drain my blood through my wounds like this.

I even kicked Koo Huiseo's abdomen in an attempt to push him away, but as soon as I did, a tentacle emerged from his back and grabbed my ankle.

"Aaghh!"

Though one foot dangled in the air in Koo Hui-seo's tentacle's firm grip, the back of my head fortunately didn't bash against the ground.

The tentacles tightly coiled around my ankle, gradually increasing in number until they finally restrained my body. When the tentacles from Koo Hui-seo's mouth stopped sucking on my palms, my limbs had been fully tied up.

"L-Let me go!" By that point, I lost composure.

I swung my arms vigorously, trying to strike the approaching tentacles with handcuffed hands, but they seemed unaffected. Instead, Koo Hui-seo remained still, then spread the tentacles wide to reveal numerous smaller ones inside.

The image was frighteningly disgusting. However, the voice that emerged from within that writhing mass seemed indifferent to my reactions.

[Lee-kyung-ssi~i… It's not enough… So delicious. So sweet. Please give me some more…]

As he spoke, the split tentacles rubbed against each other, as if he were licking his lips.

‘This is nuts!'

Transparents drops of liquid even dripped from the tips of the tentacles. It repulsively reminded me of drool.

This grotesque form reminded me of a monster movie I had seen before. I now fully understood the feelings of the characters that were dragged away and eaten by the monsters.

‘Why do I have to feel sympathy for something like that?!'

Unable to endure, I took the dagger Garam-ie had given me from my inventory and held it tightly with both hands. "Snap out of it, Koo Hui-seo-ssi! If you don't, I'll stab you!"

To make matters worse, my now reopened wound stained the dagger handle with blood, making it quite slippery.

Meanwhile, fortunately, Koo Hui-seo seemed to have enough intelligence to distinguish the danger of a blade; though the dagger was being stained red, he didn't approach me recklessly like before. He whined and licked his lips but didn't come any closer.

But, his desire to drink blood still lingered. He greedily licked the drops of blood from my wound that had fallen to the floor.

From those actions, I could see that Koo Hui-seo's patience was running thin. The more he licked the blood, the more the tentacles that were stuck to my limbs exerted force.

I struggled hard to release myself, but Koo Hui-seo didn't obediently let me go.

I screamed in frustration, "We have to escape from here! You idiot! If you've bothered to reattach your head, then you should use it!"

But even my outburst was subdued by Koo Hui-seo's writhing body and faint mumbling.

"I'm hungry… So hungry… I shouldn't eat Lee-kyung-ss~ii…" Koo Hui-seo had half-turned into a monster by this point. With his current intelligence, it seemed that he had reached his limit by restraining himself from completely devouring me.

I clenched my teeth as cold sweat ran down my back.

‘Damn… What if he really ravaged and consumed me?'

Even if Koo Hui-seo stopped himself, the sprawled Moon Issak lying nearby was also a problem.ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

I looked at Moon Issak with an anxious gaze; at that moment, his body trembled weakly. As a werewolf, he was quite resilient; he would probably gain consciousness soon.

"Koo Hui-seo-ssi, please… If we leave here, I'll give it to you. Let's move out for now!"

[Lee-kyung-ssi… You're… a liar… But… I want to eat… If I eat, there's no need… to think…]

"What are you saying?! Of course you need to think about it more." I bit my lower lip as I watched Koo Hui-seo's breathing become rougher. I couldn't even summon a servant–the situation was bleak. Was there really no way to snap Koo Hui-seo out of this?

[Grrr….]

To make matters worse, my worst fears came true.

Behind me, I heard a hair-raising sound. When I turned around, Moon Issak was lowly growling, as if he was finally returning to his senses. As the investigator's back began to move, Koo Hui-seo's attention turned to him.

[Ah, as expected…I can't take it anymore…]

This stupid tentacle was twisted around my wrist; the tip was open wide like a mouth. Looking at the thorn-like protrusions inside, I brandished my dagger, "I'm really going to stab you! Idiot! Get a hold of yourself!"

[Haah, haah, haah….]

The slippery tentacles continued to coil around me, winding their way upwards, regardless of my cries. The tentacles licked my palms until it became sticky.

I trembled, but I couldn't bring myself to stab Koo Hui-seo in the end. I was incredibly frustrated–especially because I could see Moon Issak standing.

Soon afterwards, Moon Issak rose to his feet, shook his head a few times, and glanced quickly towards my side.

‘Choi Lee-kyung…'

He mouthed my name.

Only then could I see the wound he had suffered–the severity. To my surprise, he had suffered a stab wound so deep that his neck was nearly cleaved off.

Blood poured from the wound. The werewolf's recovery rate was so extraordinary that the neck was reattaching in seconds. It won't take long until the vocal cords fully recover.

[Choi Lee-kyung… Was that trash your last line of defense?]

Moon Issak's brows furrowed as he glared at Koo Hui-seo. I had no idea that Koo Hui-seo would have such ability, and I also didn't feel the need to answer.

Instead of answering, I struck Koo Hui-seo, who was still sucking my blood through the tentacle, on the head. This was because I didn't want us to be one-sidedly beaten by Moon Issak.

‘Isn't he actually stupid?'

I stomped in frustration, but my foot didn't reach the ground.

[Tasty…]

Meanwhile, Koo Hui-seo still hadn't returned to his senses and gradually began to bite my hand. At that moment, the lumpy protrusions on his tentacles transformed into sharp spikes. I felt a stinging sensation; the rate at which my blood was being drained sharply increased.

I struggled, resisting Koo Hui-seo pulling my hand into his mouth.

‘Should I really have stabbed him?'

I was conflicted, looking at the gleaming blade of the dagger in my hand.

Suddenly, Moon Issak, finally showing signs of bloodthirst and recovered vitality, spoke some nonsense–

[Were you in *that* sort of ‘give and take' relationship with Koo Hui-seo as well?]

"What?"

[Your lower body is so slutty…]

I opened my eyes; the urge to hit Moon Issak in the head surged within me. The bastard maintained his smirk as he looked at my disgusted expression.

[As expected, I'll need to re-educate you from the very beginning.]

With that said, he extended one arm, summoning a long white rod into his hand.

Even at surface glance the weapon looked unusual. As soon as the rod was summoned, Moon Issak's thick forearm began to freeze; as soon as he slammed the staff down, the area around him in a radius of several meters, was frozen. I felt the cold air seeping out of the staff.

[Choi Lee-kyung… I'll purify your dirty body.]

Moon Issak, after summoning his weapon, stared at me with his shining, silver eyes.

[It's coo~oold…]

Koo Hui-seo, who had been nibbling on my hand, reacted to Moon Issak's bloodthirst and lifted his head.

Contrary to what his absentminded mumblings might suggest about his current state of alertness, the tentacles hanging behind his back turned sharp and rigid, like spider's legs. They surrounded us.

Koo Hui-seo spat my hand out with a look of regret in his eyes. Then, soon afterwards, a black pit formed at his feet.

At first, I thought it was merely colored ‘black.' However, I was startled to find that the pit was actually filled with a huge tentacle that was supporting his weight.

And, above that truly deep pit, I hung, swaying in the air, with only Koo Hui-seo's tentacles acting as my tether.

TL: I swear, Choi Lee-kyung is catnip for yanderes.

Except, instead being sexy, the yanderes are just scary af in this story.
