Although she lacked talent in swordsmanship, her energy was commendable. It was evident that she had survived on the edge all this time. She wasn’t an easy person to kill.

Muho jumped onto a tree and closely observed Rosé from behind.

‘She is definitely broken.’

The barrier to another world had been shattered. Right now, Rosé is like a newborn baby in this world.

A clean vessel capable of learning anything and containing anything. It was a perfect time for her to learn swordsmanship.

Thud.

At that moment, a small droplet fell from Muho’s cheek. He looked up at the sky, wiping his own cheek. Dark clouds were gathering.

“Of all times…”

Muho descended from the tree and followed the path where his disciple had departed. Since he didn’t have a shared vision like Elion, he had to prepare for unforeseen situations.

* * *

“My divine bead!”

Jumping after the reddish glow like a mountain rabbit for a while, Rosé was able to find the divine bead perilously placed on a rock in front of a waterfall.

She dropped to her stomach and carefully climbed the rock. The divine bead was within her reach. Finally found it!

‘Found…!’

Splash!

‘Ahhh, no…!’

Of all times, the divine bead slipped. Because her palm was sweaty and slippery. The fallen divine bead went straight into the valley.

What should she do? Should she quickly retrieve it and come back? There was a chance that she might be washed away as well.

But it’s my money! I needed that to repay the debt. In the end, Rosé leaped into the valley.

“Puff! Hah!”

The breaststroke is an excellent swimming technique. Now, she just had to retrieve the divine bead. A little more, just a little…!

“Haah!”

No, it’s floating away!

​​The creek was much deeper than she had expected. She barely managed to insert her hand into a crevice between the rocks, but the water kept pushing her back. To make matters worse, rain began pouring down, causing her hand to slip.

She was so desperate that her fingertips turned bright red.

“I knew it would be like this.”

Rosé raised her head at the familiar voice of a man. She had lost all sense of her grip after enduring for, who knows, how long.

“Master?”

Rosé looked at the man standing with crossed arms, squinting his eyes. Even though the dark made it difficult for her to see clearly, the man was wearing a white robe like her master.

“Save… save me, master!”

Just as she shouted with a struggling voice, her hand slipped from the grip on the rock into the rain.

Rosé screamed. This crazy monk! Save me!

“You are such a nuisance.”

He sighed and lifted Rosé, who was being carried away by the current, with one hand. She was moments away from falling down the waterfall.

“You okay?”

Huh. Why does the master look handsome? Did I die, perhaps? Am I in hell?

Looking at Rosé’s dumbfounded expression, he raised an eyebrow. Oops. By releasing his power, he undid the reversal spell.

After hastily reverting to his old man appearance, the master pulled Rosé up and into the ground. As soon as she hit the ground, she collapsed, gasping for breath.

“Your training is hopeless, you’re hopeless.”

Rain was pouring down heavily, as if a hole had opened in the sky. The master lifted his disciple’s arm, who was lying face down, and positioned her on his back.

“Master…”

“Wrap your neck up properly.”

After confirming that Rosé was securely tied up, Muho quickly climbed up the hillside. Even though she was being carried on an old man’s back, she never declined. Indeed,  she was the most outstanding disciple when it came to being a smartass¹the author actually used the word 글러 먹기론 which means “to be in a messed-up state” or “to be irreversibly in a bad condition”.

* * *

Muho headed towards some cave on the west side of Ruifiri Mountain. It was a place that Lian Mora often visited for secluded training.

Muho laid Rosé down on one side of the cave and lit a fire. Unfortunately, the fire was incompatible, and just starting the fire took quite a while.

Crackle. Crackle.

Finally, the flames caught onto the dry branches he managed to find. When Rosé regained consciousness, she slowly got up.

Meanwhile, Muho had his back turned to Rosé, chewing on the jerky Elion made. She had to be somewhat wet. Muho couldn’t lift his head even once as he ate, since his gaze was fixed on the full view of her milky br*asts.

“Master?”

“Hey, dry your clothes near the fire.”

Rosé belatedly realized her appearance and hastily covered her chest. Thanks to the rain soaking her white robe, her figure was fully visible. The tie around her waist had come undone, revealing her chest.

Muho confirmed his disciple’s tidied appearance and returned to his original spot.

“Wanna eat?”

“I’m not hungry.”

“If you don’t eat this tasteless jerky, you won’t recover.”

He threw a piece of dried meat onto Rosé’s lap. He was telling her to eat it later. But for someone who had just survived death, she hardly had the appetite.

“It’s seasoned with pepper, so it’s edible. Considering it was made by that guy, it’s quite meticulous.”

As far as Muho knew, Elion was a guy whose cooking skills were as crude as his charm.

Once he caught a rabbit, he would roast even its skin without hesitation. A guy like that, who suddenly started learning how to cook, ended up making jerky.

‘I knew it the moment he was looking for a cookbook.’

Muho wrinkled his face as he crumpled a piece of jerky into his mouth.

It was clear that his heart was melting, just like this jerky was melting in his stomach.

“Hmm, he said it’s hard to find pepper, so how come there’s pepper…”

It was when he took out another piece of jerky from the basket. Rosé looked at the jerky he had picked up with eyes that had unexpectedly enlarged like a rabbit.

Do you want to eat it? Muho, without thinking, tore the jerky in half and handed it to Rosé. But it wasn’t jerky that Rosé needed.

“Pepper…”

“Oh, it’s the taste of pepper.”

“No!”

“Something’s wrong. Are you saying you don’t like pepper?”

Muho, who had eaten a new piece of jerky in the meantime, stared at Rosé with a satisfied expression. Rosé took a few steps back, holding her head.

— It’s jerky. I made it with the pepper you brought, miss.

— I thought you had some pepper in your room, so I used it, miss. Did I make a mistake?

Why did I remember just now? The fact that I had no place to put the medicine, so I just left it in the room. And that the drug looks similar to pepper to the point that one might mistake it for ‘pepper.’

That wasn’t a pepper Alfred secretly added. What Elion put in the jerky was ‘Matching of Desires²T/N: if you guys forgot, it’s the item Rosé got from the dark pharmacy in Chapter 7.’

“Ah… Isn’t it too hot? Did I light the fire too much?”

Muho, who had loosened the tie of his robe a little, fanned himself inside. Horrified, Rosé immediately checked outside the cave.

Rain was pouring down aggressively, as if it would shatter the ground. It wasn’t a situation to seek shelter.

“Ah, damn it. It’s so hot, I’m going crazy.”

Muho finally untied his waistband and threw away his top. The plump old man’s body was covered in sweat.

“Ha… what’s this.”

The problem wasn’t the heat. It was the tingling sensation gathering from underneath. All the heat was emanating from his lower body.

Muho clenched his teeth. He clenched his fists so tightly that it felt like he had scratched them, but his er*ction didn’t go away.

According to his calculations, he was still in heat. Since he no longer interfered with human affairs, the heat that used to occur once a month was reduced to once every ten years.

But the way he looked now, he clearly looked like a tiger in heat.

“Hey, something, strange… ah, run… Ugh.”

But there was nowhere to run.

Until the rain stopped, she and Muho were trapped in this cave.

“Master, are you okay?”

“No, I’m not okay at all… Ugh!”

Muho grabbed his crotch and collapsed. The lower half of his body has been dominated by lewd thoughts for a long time.

He wanted to violate her. He wanted to shut up the disciple who said she didn’t like it, suck her br*asts, and thrust into her v*gina.

“Huh… Haah…”

In front of Muho, his disciple trembled, cowering in the corner. A tiger in heat acts solely for the purpose of reproduction.

A female with similar strength could suppress a male’s tail and suppress his estrus, but human women were different.

There was no other human in the world besides Lian who could control the divine beast that had once made a name for itself as the guardian of the gods.

Even more so, for a human woman who fell prey to a tiger in heat to not die, was quite lucky.

The magic was unraveling. His wrinkled skin smoothed out, and his age spots disappeared. His white hair regained its clear violet color.

His hands and feet grew larger, and his height increased. White hair was sprouting on the back of his hand. His tailbone was elongating. If it continued like this, he would eventually break through the cave wall and turn into a tiger’s body.

In times of extreme excitement, the tigers revert to their true colors. That’s why, when a tiger was in heat, there were numerous cases where they unintentionally impaled humans with their massive penises.

Muho looked at the frightened disciple in front of him. She was huddled inside, trembling. He had to prevent the situation from turning into the act of a beast.

​​”Ugh…!”

When he still had a little sanity left, Muho transformed his body back into human form. His violet hair flowed down his waist, fair skin, and a muscular body covered with muscle.

And for some reason, the lower half of his body managed to replicate the characteristics of his noble body.

Rosé covered her mouth in surprise at her transformed master. It couldn’t be true. That person…

‘He’s the one who saved me.’

The person who rescued her from the succubus. Until now, she thought it was just a Blue Knight.

But seeing her master’s transformation in front of her, a faint memory began to return.
