I Didn't Choose the Gangsta System, the Gangsta System Chose Me

"Am I spoiling her?" Virena asked.

"Yes,"

Joren didn't hesitate to reply.

"But, the Principal did so much for me. Shouldn't this be natural?"

"Hmm…"

Seeing that Joren was too comfortable in his position to reply, Virena just sighed. After all, these questions are something that only she could answer.

At that moment, Joren sat up but since Virena was sitting on his stomach, it was just an attempt. Not that he's complaining.

"Have you thought of what you've done to her?"

Joren just asked a question instead of saying anything else. This made Virena think of the answer and found that-

"Wait, yeah, I've been working for her my whole life…"

But it still feels wrong to think like that for Virena so she was still unsure.

"Maybe, you can start acting as if she owes you."

Joren suggested, which made Virena frown.

"..."

"You think she will get angry at you?"

"No, the Principal is not that kind of person, maybe." Virena showed a troubled face.

"What's the worst that she will do? Also, what is it that you're trying to say earlier? About me making her cry?"

Joren asked, making Virena's face return to a frown.

"She said you left the cruise ship and will now forever stay in the UnderWorld…?" Virena asked since that's not what she's seeing right now.

She doesn't believe that Ness was lying but, at the same time, why is Joren here?

"Yeah, I left. She doesn't believe that I can escape."

Virena nodded in admiration. She too has zero confidence that Joren can escape the UnderWorld with his strength. She even expected for him to kneel down and asked for them to get it for him. That's why she was a little shocked when Joren actually just trained for it, even though it seemed stupid.

"So, you did escape. But… you're still undead though." she said while internally thinking that it's already good enough. The question now is: How?

But at the next moment, that question was turned down.

"No, I haven't escaped yet."

"...?"

Virena then raised an eyebrow.

'So the fish is right. They don't know that this place is in the UnderWorld.'

Joren didn't know if he should say it or not but decided to be against this. If the Principal doesn't know then this must be a big deal. He doesn't want to engage in it for now. Although he would accept any challenge, it's smart to be grounded to reality.

As of now, the difficulty of what he will go through is already too much even without adding other problems.

At that moment, Virena stood up before looking at him.

"Is there something that you're hiding?"

"What… do you mean?"

Joren replied, playing dumb.

"Joren, I command you to say what you're thinking." Virena didn't beat the bush.

Joren's face paled as the words from his thoughts came out of his mind.

"I think your ass is really soft, I want you to sit on me again!"

"... huh!?" Virena blushed in both shame and regret as she covered her bottom, "You're thinking about tha-... I sat on you as some sort of an insult, why are enjoying it, pervert!?"

Joren awkwardly laughed, "I don't think there's any man who wouldn't like that."

"Okay, stop saying your thoughts. It's my fault." Virena massaged her face before she turned around and left, leaving the words, "I'll do what you said. After I comfort the Principal, that is."

Seeing her leave without further interrogation made Joren sighed in relief. Although he doesn't see any immediate trouble for saying what he found, it's better to be safe. He had to control himself and, most of all, he's really damn tired so he slept.

<Joren>

"Sleeping…"

<...>

"Zzz…"

<I can go over to the details next time but the Gangsta God have seen your actions and he says that you shouldn't be too rash…>

The fish then disappeared when Joren whispered.

"No turning back…"

Back to the Principal's Office, Virena had the urge to tell Ness about Joren's state, however, stopped herself.

'This is the first step of learning to control yourself.'

She internally said to herself.

'But… why is the Principal so depressed about Joren?'

Virena could only think of the Joren harassing Principal and then disappearing before the latter could have her 'revenge'

That was why she was so angry but seeing that Joren was so calm about it, it doesn't seem like he did something bad.

'Or he really is just good at keeping up the act…'

But Virena couldn't believe that too since in her mind, Joren is may be thick-skinned and even a pervert but not cunning. She had seen through him the first day they met.

'No, but it's also impossible for the Principal to get close to him…'

Virena sat on the sofa to think as she learned that Ness locked herself up in her room. She reminisced about the time when the monster that is Loch Ness let her ride on its back, not letting her enemies get near her even though they are right in her face.

Every day, as a child, she lives by fear; fear of being hungry, fear of being hunted, and fear of being caught. However, to see the hunters, who she thought was relentlessly vicious, stop in the face of the Loch Ness was a feeling she could never forget.

Security and safety.

When she met the Loch Ness monster, she learned how those words felt. For a girl who lives in fear ever since she was born, Virena treasured this feeling. She would do anything to make the Loch Ness accept her.

Before she knew it, she was followed the monster every day. Calling out for it and waiting for it to come ashore. Her wait bore fruit when a pink-haired woman came up to her and asked if they can live together.

Virena replied with an astounding yes.

The Loch Ness would smile and laugh but Virena could still feel the distance. As if the monster was looking down on her... as if it would not care if she died at the next second. Her safety and security were unreliable and unstable. She had to work hard to have worth for the monster.

Virena took years before she knew that the Loch Ness was no longer a monster for her. She didn't know when exactly but Ness began to care for her. But, their relationship as master and servant stays the same. She works and the master leisure. Virena never thought that she could influence the Loch Ness, therefore, she just did her best.

'Did the Principal change…? If she did then that would explain how Joren could make her open up to him.'

This irritated Virena in so many levels but there's nothing she could do about it. For now, the door was closed between her and Ness.

A day later…

Joren finally woke up from his sleep and stretched as he regained full energy again.

"That was a good sleep!"

Before he did anything, he went to the kitchen to cook and then, take a long shower while the pot heats up. When he returned to the kitchen, he ate and found that it was already dark by then.

"I must've woken up at evening already… perfect!"

Joren whimsically cloaked himself and went out to run to the Palace. This time, he brought with him spare clothes so that he wouldn't be as dirty as he was before.

Suddenly, he felt lighter.

'Must be because I'm so tired when I ran back then.'

Joren thought and half an hour later, he returned to the cave of Tartarus.

"Hearing their screams still give me the creeps."

He didn't think it was necessary to enter again. His fear at it was no longer as deep as he would feel the need to challenge himself.

'I hope I encounter Megaera. I feel butterflies in my stomach whenever I hear her enthused voice while she talks about anything.'

Joren went around the gigantic cave and reached the woods again to see the Hades' Palace from there. Before he stormed in, he sat down and thought for it.

'Should I still keep my character of Gyges up?'

It was risky since he doesn't know a lot about the guy. What if he met Hades or anyone in particular who knows Gyges before and got suspicious? He doubts that he could keep up with the 'Tartarus stirred my memory up' setting.

'But the problem is sexy Megaera who…'

Joren frowned and looked at his crotch.

"Am I thinking with my dick?"

He realized that he hasn't released some yet and get that clarity!

"But it's too late already! Only if I've taken advantage of my 'morning wood' then I could be thinking straight today. I really am a pervert!"

Joren was in a dilemma.

He was too horny to think, especially since he would be meeting with Goddesses whose beauty knows no bounds.

Joren then looked around and saw that he was in a barren place. No sound to be heard, no one to be seen.

He shook his head.

"No, it would comically painful if someone spotted me here. I'm not a degenerate. Just think straight."

'Stop thinking about women… stop thinking about Megaera… stop thinking about her body…'

Joren squinted his eyes as he knew this would go nowhere.

"Let's just barge in."

He decided that later, he would pray to Virena and confess that he is a pervert who thinks of lustful things in a critical event.

'Saint Virena, forgive me.. Let your sharp insults extinguish the perverseness within me.'
