Necromancer Survival

T.w. Attempted Rape

Thud–!

My vision suddenly went dark. After a few seconds, a dull pain surged through me. Moon Issak had hit me in the head. My nose detected the fishy scent of blood.

As I reeled and almost lost my balance, Moon Issak roughly grabbed my hair. Yellow eyes twinkling, he violently twisted my head to the side. “That’s the sort of thing you should say when your bastard servants are nearby.”

“……”

“What can you do if you provoke my wrath? Hm?”

Then, Moon Issak dragged my body behind him as he started moving somewhere.

As I was being hauled, I grabbed the hand that held my hair and tried to rip it off. However, his skin was so tough that my nails couldn’t even penetrate it. Soon, the investigator stopped walking and haphazardly threw me into a corner.

“Ngh…!”

“Look to the side,” he commanded.

I realized that Moon Issak had thrown me into a garbage collection area. The unique sour scent of trash seeped into my nose, and large, black plastic bags were piled high around my body.

However, he wasn’t trying to show me mere, ordinary trash.

“…Hui…Hui-seo-ssi…”

Hui-seo’s pale, lifeless head, detached from his body, was lying on the ground. The tentacles that had surrounded his body were also severed and left in pieces.

Shocked, I reached out to Koo Hui-seo, fumbling for his tentacles. However, before my hand could reach, Moon Issak flicked his finger and a nearby tentacle burst with a clear snapping sound.

Moon Issak stared at my shaking fingertips before opening his mouth, “What was your relationship with Koo Hui-seo?”

“……” I didn’t answer, but Moon Issak smirked.

“Your surroundings are so messy, Choi Lee-kyung. You’ve lived so comfortably until now, hm?” ¹

“……”

“I’ll make sure to organize all these loose threads so you can live more modestly from now on.”

In that moment, rage surged through me as I glared at Moon Issak, but even as he felt my murderous intent, he merely looked excited. It seemed that the more I cried, screamed, suffered, and detested him, the more pleasure he felt.

When Moon Issak saw my distorted expression, he didn’t hesitate to make more vulgar statements to provoke me even further, “Don’t worry. You can just mooch off of me from now on.”

“……”

“You’ll have to suck hard–even despite the stench–in order to survive. Right?” He slowly approached me.

I tried to step back–to keep our distance–but my back almost immediately hit a garbage bag. Now that I was caught in a dead end, Moon Issak leered at me as if I were an appetizing treat.

‘I want to kill him.’

I wished I could tear that vile smile apart.

My powerless hands shook from the force of that wish.

Then, my hand was pricked by something sharp protruding from the garbage bag. I glanced at the hand that was pricked for a moment before tearing the bag and spilling the garbage inside.

As expected, a gleaming shard of glass popped out. Without thinking, I grabbed the glass fragment.

“What are you going to do with that?” Moon Issak laughed profusely when he saw the glass in my hand. His relaxed demeanor was filled with mockery, as if to say, ‘You can’t believe you can harm me with that little thing.’

Once again, I chose to remain silent. I held the piece of glass with my right hand and scratched a deep cut on my left palm. Alongside the sharp pain, the blood began to well within my hand.

“What are you scheming?” Only then did Moon Issak’s grinning face slowly harden. He abandoned his slow, menacing approach, rushing at me in one swift motion.

I managed to avoid him (just once) because I had expected Moon Issak to grab for my hand. However, before I could reach Koo Hui-seo’s body, I tripped over the Investigator’s feet. “Ack!”

“Fuck–just what are you trying to pull…?!” Moon Issak immediately used his superior strength to step on my calves. I had nearly lost consciousness from the pain, but I endured by biting my tongue. I stretched my hands out as far as I could to reach Koo Hui-seo.

However, Moon Issak was faster. He grabbed my foot and hurriedly pulled me towards him. In the end, my hand couldn’t even brush against Koo Hui-seo and waved in the air futilely.

Moon Issak sat on my body, holding my blood-soaked hand, “Are you trying to add Koo Hui-seo to your corpse collection?”

“Get… Off me…!”

“So stupid… Did you think I’d stand still and watch you do whatever it is you wanted to do?” With that said, Moon Issak looked down at me. He flicked the buttons on my combat suit open.

At that moment, I forgot about my pain; my body felt ice-cold. I writhed like a madman, but Moon Issak responded by mercilessly slapping my cheek over and over again.

Slap–!

The violence continued until my body could no longer move properly due to the pain. My brain knew that I should resist him, but every time I tried to move, I received about ten blows, making it impossible for me to even move my head as I wanted.

Moon Issak showed no interest in my miserable, pitiful face and only showed interest in my exposed upper torso. Soon, he leaned over and kissed me on the shoulder. “Haah…”

“……”

When Moon Issak’s lips trailed lower, I felt that I would do anything–could do anything–to kill him. However, no matter how much I cursed the man, his touch on my skin didn’t disappear, and his excited breathing only grew louder.

I felt like I was being swallowed by a nightmare that I couldn’t wake up from.

“Choi Lee-kyung…” Moon Issak pressed down on me more with his body, groaning as if he were in pleasurable pain. I felt his dirty hands touch the buckle of my pants.

“I… I’m… going to….kill…” Filled with rage, my mouth finally began to move. However, my body continued to tremble; I sounded like I was in tears even to my own ears.

Moon Issak momentarily paused at those words. But, when he raised his head, his face was exhilarated.

As soon as our eyes met, he opened his mouth to say something. However, suddenly, a black line was drawn across his neck.

“……”

He opened his mouth, stunned, but nothing could be heard. He also realized he couldn’t hear himself speak, and his expression hardened.

Moon Isaac looked at me; his expression contorted in annoyance, and he raised his hand. He seemed to think the fault lay with me. Anticipating the coming violence, I instinctively shrank back and tightly shut my eyes. But–

[First taboo: Don’t open your eyes until the count of three.]

I suddenly heard a child’s voice in my ears. I flinched and almost opened my eyes from the resulting fear; the child continued to whisper innocently.

[One.]

Suddenly, Moon Issak’s weight pushing down on my body disappeared. My eyes, once again, almost opened on instinct, but fortunately fear stilled my instincts.

[Tw~wo.]

I heard the child’s voice again; something hot sprayed across my face. Once the fishy, iron-like scent penetrated my nose, I realized that it was blood.

My teeth rattled, but there was still no sound to be heard. The quietude was terrible.

[Three!]

Then, even though the count was finished, I could only tremble without opening my eyes. This terrible silence continued.

After inhaling and exhaling for a long time, I slowly fumbled the area around me with my eyes still closed. But no matter how much I groped around, I couldn’t hear Moon Issak or that mysterious voice.

I opened my eyes slowly–body still tense.

“W-What…” My vision was still blurry when I first opened my eyes because of the sheer force I used to squeeze them shut. After rubbing them a few times, I could finally properly examine my surroundings.

However, even as my vision cleared, the situation that unfurled before me was still incomprehensible.

“What on earth….”

Moon Isaak was sprawled over the trash bags, his back facing me. His back looked unharmed, but a pool of (presumably his) blood was forming a puddle beneath him.

When I saw that, I faltered and retreated a couple steps.

[Wahh!]

“Aaack!”

Someone screamed in my ear; I looked back, screaming as well. Behind me was a child I had never seen before, smiling at me. However, the child’s eyes had no whites.

TL: I gotta say, the description of sexual violence is pretty effective here. I’m no stranger to guilty pleasure non-con scenes (and some of them are incredibly well-written + hot). However, the author really honed in on the horror of attempted rape with this chapter + Lee-kyung’s bodily reactions.
