Surviving as a Brainwashing Villain in a Hero World

Chapter 10

In the early morning, inside the female heroes’ dormitory at the Hero Union headquarters.

Ji-woo, exhausted from waiting for Do-hwa, who hadn’t come back until late, had fallen asleep.

“Umm… Uh…”

She had experienced emergency call-outs several times herself,

but they always left a message or a text for each other, no matter what.

Do-hwa, who had promised to hang out and hadn’t contacted her for nearly an hour,

made her worry even after she heard about the emergency deployment.

“Sis…?”

“Hmm? Ji-woo, you’re up?”

When she went out to the living room, there was Do-hwa drinking water in the kitchen.

“What time did you get back last night? I didn’t hear you come in.”

“Huh? A little past 5. I was waiting outside! Sorry…”

Ji-woo felt a surge of anger seeing Do-hwa apologizing, but

The thought that she was back safely made her sigh in relief.

‘Thank goodness.’

Then, acting as if nothing was wrong, she turned her head to fiddle with her phone.

“Next time you go out, leave a message even if it’s urgent.”

“Okay. Really sorry.”

Despite being an only child, Ji-woo hadn’t received much parental love growing up,

and friends who discovered her ability in high school kept their distance out of fear.

Having entered adulthood without close family affection or deep friendships with peers,

Do-hwa was like an older sister to her in the lonely Hero Union.

Moreover, being a hero meant working in dangerous situations,

where severe injuries or even death were not uncommon.

There was a reason she worried so much when Do-hwa left without a word.

“Aren’t you tired, sis? You usually go to bed before 11.”

“Hmm? I’m fine! I got some sleep after coming back.”

Do-hwa’s face, returning from battling villains late, looked quite tired.

Of course, Do-hwa hadn’t been out suppressing villains as she told Ji-woo.

But it was true she had done something that drained her energy just as much.

“So are you taking today off? They usually give you a break the day after an emergency call-out.”

“Hmm? Not sure. They said there might be a follow-up call-out in between resting.”

‘What on earth could be so important that she can’t even rest and has to go out for follow-up work?’

Ji-woo was somewhat puzzled by Do-hwa’s mention of possible follow-up tasks, but

she nodded, accepting it.

“Okay. If you go out, let me know in advance.”

“Sure. Don’t worry about it.”

Do-hwa patted Ji-woo’s head to reassure her.

“Stop treating me like a kid. You’re only two years older than me.”

Ji-woo, grabbing Do-hwa’s hand that was patting her head, made a grumpy face,

then sat on the sofa and started eating the bread and drink Do-hwa had prepared.

Do-hwa looked at Ji-woo, feeling as if she was watching her little sister.

“So, you’re heading out first?”

“Going to exercise again?”

“Yeah. I haven’t been able to work out properly these past few busy days.”

Do-hwa had now changed into leggings and a tank top, wearing her sneakers.

Ji-woo waved goodbye as Do-hwa stepped out the door.

***

The dormitory within the Hero Union was equipped with an incredibly diverse array of facilities.

There was a dedicated restaurant where you could order any menu item at any time,

a vast gym filled with the latest exercise equipment,

and leisure facilities for various recreational activities or movie watching, all part of hero welfare.

With top-notch facilities that could tire your mouth just describing them,

Many renowned heroes chose to live within the dormitory without ever needing to leave.

“Phew! Is it because it’s been a few days? I feel a bit heavier than usual.”

And there was Do-hwa, finishing her routine at one corner of that gym, taking a break.

Taking a few days off from exercise due to work made her body feel heavy.

“Something’s off…? My body feels a bit softer.”

Do-hwa stood in front of a full-length mirror for a body check.

Her aim wasn’t for beauty or physique but to train the strength and muscles needed for her activities.

Accordingly, Do-hwa’s body was glamorous yet well-balanced with muscle.

However, what she saw now seemed slightly different from a few days ago.

The muscles in her arms and legs seemed to have slightly decreased, feeling softer,

her abs remained as they were, but she felt her breasts and buttocks had grown a bit.

Though she had taken a break from exercise, she had engaged in activities that drained a lot of energy,

so she didn’t pay much mind to it.

‘If my breasts and butt have grown… Master Si-yoon might like it…♥’

Instead, the thought that her owner might appreciate this change brought a smile to her face.

A-grade hero Ignition, Yoon Do-hwa.

Her life had undergone many changes since meeting Combatant 505, Ha Si-yoon.

They had once faced each other as villain and hero in the field,

but due to Si-yoon’s peculiar ability, Do-hwa found her bodily freedom stolen.

She was molested, forced to service an unwanted reproductive organ,

and had her perception altered to start seeing herself as Si-yoon’s sex slave.

She hadn’t forgotten her sense of duty and responsibility as a hero.

However, this new role assigned to her was as important as being a hero.

She pondered how to refine her demeanor and mindset as her master’s sex slave,

thinking about what actions and words would please her master more when he embraced her.

Her positive thought about her breasts and buttocks seeming larger was not for personal satisfaction,

but for her master’s pleasure.

In the empty locker room of the gym,

She took off her leggings and tank top.

‘It’s certain… They seem bigger than before. My hips… my breasts… my buttocks…♥’

Her breast size, the plumpness of her buttocks, and even her waist and hips seemed more pronounced.

Naked, she confirmed that her body had indeed become more feminine.

– Click!

Do-hwa picked up her phone and took a picture of her reflection in the mirror.

Then she immediately sent that photo to her master, Si-yoon.

[Do-hwa: I thought you might like this, so I’m sending it to you♥]

Within seconds, a reply came from Si-yoon.

[Master♥: It’s pretty. It would be nice if you could send them often.]

“Si-yoon said… it’s pretty…♥”

For a female sex slave, receiving approval from her male master was both a goal and an honor.

Pleased with Si-yoon’s seemingly satisfied reply, Do-hwa was overjoyed.

[Do-hwa: Yes♥ If it’s your command, Si-yoon♥]

‘Hehe… I should study what Si-yoon might like…♥’

The figure of Hero Ignition, who once strived to be an unyielding hero against villains,

was slowly being consumed by the realization of being a sex slave for her male master.

“Ahhh! That feels refreshing.”

No more early morning shifts that always left me exhausted.

No more superiors and commanders who used me as their meat shield.

And no more of those Dark Knights who were in charge of all that!

Ahh!

Has the morning ever been this refreshing?

He takes out banana milk and a bacon sandwich from the fridge.

“Every day, it was either some weird shit soup… or I was just screwed! Sigh.”

It was a meal for combatants consisting of an unidentifiable brown liquid with no real ingredients, shriveled vegetable bits,

and a lump of rice the size of a child’s fist.

Lunch or dinner was somewhat like human food, but even then, convenience store food would have been several times better.

The few items available at the hideout’s internal store were monopolized by the leaders,

and the two vending machines inside the building were rarely refilled.

If you asked why there were hundreds of combatants in the Dark Knights despite this treatment,

…it was simply because they paid a lot.

Anyone with limbs intact and no complaints could become a combatant,

and if they had even a minor ability, becoming an executive wasn’t hard.

What was given was a salary that easily surpassed the starting salary of a typical college graduate.

For someone like me with some years under my belt, I earned even more.

Of course, if caught during villain activities and your actions were proven, you got a red line through your record,

and even after release, employment and even minor social activities were greatly restricted.

But in a world where making a living had become tough, many were willing to endure a few months to get enough for a rental deposit.

Moreover, from the Hero Union’s perspective, with so many strong villains appearing,

guys like me, mere grunt combatants, were rarely caught.

The problem was, many got injured or died during combat instead.

– Ding!

While imagining those dreadful meals from just a few days ago,

a message arrived on the phone I had put aside.

“Who could this be at this hour?”

Who would send me a message this early in the morning?

[Yoon Do-hwa: I thought you might like this, so I’m sending it to you♥]

What arrived was a nude selfie apparently taken by Yoon Do-hwa and a single line message.

That fierce wildcat-like woman had sent such a picture willingly.

Just with one simple command,

It seemed like I had fundamentally changed Yoon Do-hwa’s personality.

I sent a quick reply with a cat emoji sticking out its tongue.

[Si-yoon: It’s pretty. It would be nice if you could send them often.]

And shortly after, another reply came back.

[Yoon Do-hwa: Yes♥ If it’s your command, Si-yoon♥]

“Phew… That’s damn hot.”

The thought of wanting to get off to that photo right then crossed my mind,

but there was no need to rush.

I could just call her over and have her whenever I wanted, right?

“But still… what do I do now?”

Though it was something I had hoped for somewhere in my heart,

the organization I’d been with for years evaporated in just a few days.

If I hadn’t gained this ability and somehow survived,

I would have either joined another group as an experienced combatant or completely left this line of work.

But now, with this crazy manipulation ability,

and an A-grade hero who has become my sex slave due to this ability…

“Couldn’t I just start my own villain organization?”
