Chapter 2.2
If he thought I was a crazy woman wandering the mountains naked, my chances of getting help would drop significantly.
“Sir, could you lend me something to wear?
If you could just show me the way down the mountain, I’ll take care of the rest.”
Looking at him more closely, it seemed he lived nearby.
In his right hand, he held a worn woodcutting axe. He wasn’t holding it as if to attack me, but it seemed wise to remain cautious.
If things went south, I’d just kick him where it hurts and run.
I was confident I could take him one-on-one.
Feeling a surge of boldness, I spoke even more assertively.
“And if you could lend me some shoes too, that would be great.”
“Oh, you must be an adventurer.”
“There are lots of goblins around here, so it’s dangerous.”
…Goblins?
I knew about goblins—the green-skinned, ugly little creatures that often appear in subculture media.
But I couldn’t immediately grasp why the word “goblin” had come up so casually in the conversation of this older gentleman.
“Follow me.”
The hairy old man, still holding the axe, turned his back and strode ahead confidently.
I cautiously followed him barefoot.
I expected my feet to get scratched and battered, but surprisingly, it was manageable.
What was actually more of a hindrance while walking were the massive breasts the size of my head.
I had to keep my back straight to avoid losing my balance as I followed him.
The old man occasionally glanced back to check if I was keeping up.
The cabin was so close it felt like I could reach it with a single stumble.
Claiming I was stranded almost felt embarrassing at this point.
“Do you live here, sir?”
“Yes.”
So, like one of those “off-the-grid survivalists” you see on TV, huh?
The old man opened the door and looked at me.
“Come inside.”
“I’ll wait outside.”
Even if I were in my original body, I wouldn’t be foolish enough to enter a stranger’s house in a situation like this.
I was thinking about what to do if the old man insisted I come in, but he disappeared into the cabin without saying much.
Absentmindedly, I grabbed my breast.
Squeeze, squeeze.
“……”
Would anyone believe me if I told them I turned into a woman?
What’s going to happen with my military service?
In the worst-case scenario, I’d be charged with desertion and draft evasion, ending up in a military prison.
But with this body, there’s no way I’d be able to continue serving… right?
What’s going to happen to the rest of 20-year-old Kang Si-hyun’s life?
I couldn’t suppress the heavy feelings weighing on me.
“Miss.”
Before I realized it, the old man had approached me.
I didn’t want to think about it, but “Miss” was definitely referring to me.
“Yes?”
The old man’s face twisted into an ugly expression.
It was hard to tell if he was grimacing or smiling, and it took me more than a second to understand the intent behind that face.
I had never experienced anything like it in my life as a man.
When a sack was pulled over my head, I realized that expression had been one of vile, predatory desire.
“Mmph!? Mmmph!”
As the sack tightened, breathing immediately became difficult.
The old man held me tightly as I struggled, his rough breaths brushing against my neck.
Ugh. Damn it…!!
I immediately kicked him in the groin, but he didn’t even flinch, just held me tight with his thick arms.I can’t breathe!
Was I always this weak?
The old man, now completely agitated, whispered into my ear.
“You’re a gift from the gods!”
“What?!”
“Be my wife!”
“Don’t be ridiculous!”
I twisted my body and resisted with all my might.
The old man hoisted me over his shoulder like a sack of rice and started walking somewhere.
It was obvious that he was heading into the cabin. What’s going to happen now?
Just imagining what might happen next made me so terrified I felt like I might wet myself.
Damn it, I can’t let myself be violated by a man!
I thrashed like a freshly caught fish, desperately trying to escape his grasp, but no matter how much I struggled, there was nothing I could do except flail around.
Never in my life did I think I’d end up as the target of such a crime.
Especially since it’s a sex crime.
There was a very real possibility that after being assaulted, I could be brutally murdered and buried in the woods to destroy the evidence.
The old man’s declaration of making me his wife made it clear that his intent was rape, but…
I couldn’t see becoming his bride as a better fate than death.
“Damn it! Let me go, you bastard!”
No matter how viciously I cursed, the hairy old man hummed a tune as if he were listening to sweet music.
Judging by the sound of his footsteps, we had already entered the cabin.
Suddenly, I collided with the floor, forcing all the air out of my lungs.
“Ugh!”
A moment later, the sack was removed from my head.
After I was handcuffed, the hairy old man looked down at me with a satisfied expression as I sat helplessly.
This place… a prison?
It was crude but seemed like it might have been used as a workshop at some point.
Nearby, there were tanned animal hides and carcasses of animals hanging upside down. The sight of them filled me with dread.
If this bastard turned out to be some kind of perverted thrill-killer, what would happen to me?
I wanted to cry.
But I mustered every bit of pride I had as a former man and hid my fear behind an expression of seething anger.
“This is the best sight I’ve ever seen.”
“Let me go! I’m not going to be your bride! Do you want to rot in prison for the rest of your life?”
The hairy old man smirked, his face twisting into a grotesque smile that seemed to reek of something foul.
“Who would believe the words of a naked woman wandering around a mountain filled with goblins?”
“I’m not naked because I want to be naked!”
I scrambled backward, pressing my back against the wall.
“You haven’t already gotten pregnant by a goblin, have you? If that’s the case, I’ll strangle the monster to death and plant my seed in your womb instead.”
“Screw you!”
I strained so hard to free myself from the handcuffs that it felt like my wrists might break, but it was useless.
Why are these so damn sturdy?!
They looked like the kind of crude handcuffs you’d expect from the Joseon era, yet they were impossibly strong!
The old man unbuckled his belt and approached me. Between his hairy groin, his stiffened penis swung left and right with each step he took.
It was a body part I was extremely familiar with.
I had always looked down at it, after all.
But this time, it was different.
It was above my eye level.
