Volume 3 Chapter 41-2 Demonic Job Class
"Making you all fall for me is easier than breathing compared to winning over a single unrequited love."
With illusions to confuse the opponent and a job class that takes control of hearts──'Charmer'.
Though it was just awakened, its overwhelming potential ability easily turned the tide of a desperate situation.
Once your heart is captured, there's no escaping the Charmer's control.
Those who helped with this plan out of lust for Alium were even more powerless against the Charmer's power.
"While you can train your body, you can't easily train your heart. Your fate is now completely in my hands."
"Ugh, damn it...!"
The completely subdued male adventurers grit their teeth as they rubbed their cheeks against the ground.
Then, at that moment──.
"Lady Sianna Navis!"
The fans of Sianna, who were keeping watch outside, heard the commotion inside and rushed in.
As soon as the fans entered the tavern, they were stunned to see the adventurers lying on the ground.
At the same time, they saw their idol, Sianna Navis, in the same position with her head down, and they let out a cry of shock.
"Wh-what happened to you, Lady Sianna Navis!?"
"What on earth is this situation!?"
As the fans were in a state of confusion, Sianna smiled, confident of her "victory.".
"Everyone, please capture Sir Suisen as soon as possible!"
"...?"
"Ahaha! Please give in, Sir Suisen! Their hearts are already in my hands! The power of Charm has no effect at all! They will never shift their hearts to anyone else!"
The power of Charm works more effectively the more one is conscious of Suisen.
However, the fans, who already strongly idolized Sianna Navis, had immense resistance to Charm, just as she said.
If things continue like this, I certainly can't make them listen to the Command...
"Ah, I see. Then in that case..."
With a confident smile still on her face, Suisen snapped his fingers and chanted.
"[Illusion (Vision)]."
Once again, a mist like white smoke surrounded Suisen.
As the white smoke cleared, the fans gasped at the sight before them.
"Eh..."
With purple curly hair and clothing resembling a dress apron.
Everything, from her appearance to her aura, was faithfully recreated in a familiar form.
Sianna Navis was there.
"Lady Sianna...?"
"W-Why is there another Lady Sianna Navis...?"
While the fans were bewildered──Sianna, who had caught on to Suisen's scheme, shouted with a changed expression.
"D-Don't be deceived!!! That is──!"
In an instant, Sianna Navis's Illusion (Vision) echoed with her voice.
"[Everyone, don't move]."
"──!?"
The fans were frozen in place, their bodies stiff as stone by an invisible force.
Indeed, in the form of Suisen Pride, she couldn't make them listen to the Command.
But if that was the case, borrowing Sianna's skin would suffice.
This allowed him to completely focus the fans' Consciousness, and with overwhelming coercive power, control was established.
"There's nothing easier to manipulate than enthusiastic fans. I've heard you helped in the kidnapping of Ms. Alium, so of course, you'll face punishment."
Still in Sianna's form, Suisen shot a sharp gaze at the fans.
Then, looking down at the fallen Sianna, he began to revert to his original form as he spoke.
"Well then, it's about time I start the real judgment. First, I'll begin with the source of it all, Ms. Sianna Navis, but this form of yours is definitely the most effective."
"Sir, Suisen..."
She must not feel attracted to Suisen.
She's aware of it in her head, but she can't control her consciousness as she wishes.
In Sianna's eyes, Suisen's figure, her glossy hair, and her beautiful face appeared more precious than anything else.
She felt deeply that she could never go against this man.
But...
"Ah, ahhh...!"
Sianna looked up at Suisen, who was looking down at her with disdain, and suddenly began to let out a charming voice.
"I'm unable to go against you, Sir Suisen...! I'm now your servant, Sir Suisen...! For life, I will be like a slave, kept by you, Sir Suisen...!!!"
Sianna was beginning to feel a new "pleasure."
The feeling of submission, being dominated by the man she had tried to control.
Experiencing excitement like never before, Sianna continued to let out charming sounds, her cheeks flushed.
Realizing her state of mind, Suisen let out a small sigh and bent down to meet Sianna's gaze.
"Then, Ms. Sianna Navis, let me first command you this."
"Y-yes! Please, give any orders to this Sianna Navis...!"
Sianna's heart swelled with anticipation, wondering what kind of humiliation she would face.
"[Never show your ugly face in front of me again]."
"..."
Immediately, Sianna was completely rejected by Suisen.
Denied her very existence by the person she loved, Sianna was left in shock, forgetting her excitement.
Without receiving the command she had expected, Sianna was no longer allowed to appear before Suisen.
"Ah, and also, go to the Church voluntarily and confess your sins. I don't want to waste any more of my precious time on someone as lowly as you."
"...Yes, understood."
Sianna nodded at Suisen's command, her expression blank and her eyes vacant.
Next, Suisen shifts his gaze to the male adventurers lying on the ground.
"Well then, let's talk about your punishment..."
"..."
The male adventurers, unable to move, wait in fear for Suisen's voice.
Suisen, resting his chin on his hand as if deep in thought, eventually nods to himself as if he has come up with an idea.
"I've thought about it a lot, and I think this is the best option."
Suisen walks over to the nearest male adventurer, crouches down to meet his gaze, and smiles.
"Could you go to the Church 'like this'?"
"Huh? W-What do you mean... like this?"
"Yes, 'like this.' I want you to go to the Church in this position, showing the utmost apology, and confess your sins. Don't you think it would be quite amusing to see a large group dragging themselves to the Church, scraping their legs on the ground?"
"..."
Everyone present shudders at Suisen's suggestion.
They are currently flat on the ground from their toes to their knees.
The thought of dragging themselves to the Church in this position is terrifying.
Just estimating, it would mean dragging themselves for 2 hours until dawn.
Imagining that unbearable pain, everyone trembles as Suisen begins to murmur as if recalling something.
"By the way, I've heard that in some countries, they use goats and saltwater for torture to make criminals confess."
"G-Goat...?"
"It's a torture method called 'goat licking,' where they apply saltwater to the soles of the criminal's feet and knees and let a goat lick it off. At first glance, it seems like a harmless form of torture, but..."
Suisen lowers his voice slightly and whispers to the male adventurers.
"The goat's tongue is rough like sandpaper, and eventually, the skin on the legs starts to peel away. Even as blood oozes, flesh is scraped off, and bones become visible, the goat doesn't stop licking."
"..."
Reminded of that pain, the adventurers feel a chill run down their spines.
As they realized they were about to experience the same intense pain, everyone began to sweat profusely from their foreheads.
No matter how much divine blessing their job class had, by the time they reached the Church, their legs would be worn out, and at worst, their bones would be exposed...
"Ah, but if you do that, it'll just dirty the streets of the town. How about you guys take turns, with half of you crawling forward while the other half cleans the dirty streets as you go?"
As Suisen laid out the specific plan, the proposal became more and more realistic.
Because of this, the adventurers were filled with fear, trembling and making a fuss.
"Y-You're joking, right? You really expect us to go to the Church like this?"
"There's no way we can do that...!"
"Stop saying ridiculous things and just let us go already..."
In that instant, Suisen's cold voice echoed in their heads.
"[Just do it]."
"──!"
"Compared to the humiliation you were trying to make Ms. Alium experience, this is nothing. In fact, I'm being quite lenient here."
It was clear that his voice contained immeasurable anger.
Watching someone he considered a benefactor and an object of affection being violated right in front of him, Suisen felt a passion akin to murderous intent for the first time in his life.
"If it were up to me, I would want to make all of you experience as much pain and humiliation as possible before throwing you into a prison. You should be grateful that it's only this much."
With that, Suisen stood up and coldly declared as he looked down at the adventurers.
"From the moment I snap this 'finger,' the command will be executed. Are you mentally prepared?"
"W-Wait! Just wait a moment!"
"I apologize for attacking Alium! I swear I won't mess with her again!"
"P-Please, just that...!"
Suisen slowly raised his right hand, putting all his strength into his finger.
"Regret from the bottom of your heart for trying to lay a hand on Ms. Alium. Let the intense pain and fear be etched into your body so you can never do the same thing again──!"
"Stop ittttt!!!"
Snap.
The moment Suisen snapped his fingers, the remnants of the tavern fell silent as if time had stopped.
