I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Conversion of the Succubus by the Sephiroth Knight Order.

-Do not hesitate to use any means necessary to turn them into righteous individuals.

The Chief’s order was issued.

Agents of the Secret Society must follow the Chief’s orders, and I decided to execute them as commanded.

“Let’s go.”

“…You’re getting down to serious business. As expected of Director Do, you follow the Chief’s orders immediately, don’t you?”

“Of course.”

Doubts and illusions remained.

But once the Chief had made a decision, that was the answer.

Someone might say blindly following the Chief’s orders was not the way, but following her was right because what she said benefited everyone and contributed to world peace.

“Even if it means brainwashing, it’s better to rehabilitate them. Their personalities might die, but at least it’s better than dying for real.”

There was no hesitation.

If there was hesitation, it would be like the tension before actually taking action.

“Hye-ra, do you have enough magic power?”

After transforming into a suit, I checked the magic power of Yoon Hye-ra, who had changed from a dress to a normal office suit, by placing my hand on her shoulder.

“It seems a bit low on magic power.”

“It’s enough for what’s needed. Why? Want to recharge before we go?”

“If necessary.”

“It’s not that urgent. We’ve dressed up for once; we can’t just take it off. Let’s handle it after sorting things out. Take it easy.”

Yoon Hye-ra chuckled as she tapped the hand I placed on her shoulder.

“I need to give my body some rest too. Work a bit while at it.”

“There’s really no need for such consideration.”

“Oh, it’s not consideration? I’m serious. Thanks for thinking it’s consideration. Hehe. Then, let’s go check on the succubi.”

Yoon Hye-ra got up, and I placed her magic-imbued hand on my face.

[Let’s go.]

With the Goblin Mask pressed down, I gather my mindset as a temple servant.

“Alright, then I’ll guide you right away, Director Do.”

Yoon Hye-ra immediately composed herself as an executive and opened a gate in the air.

Whooosh.

Accompanied by a surge of energy, I crossed through the gate to where the succubus fledglings were.

The place was an underground space, reminiscent of the island where the succubi resided.

To anyone, it resembled an underground secret base, but with a notable distinction: the interior design was decidedly more ‘Korean’ than anywhere else.

In Pandemonium, researchers in white coats would be a common sight, but this secret base was populated with individuals in a variety of attire instead of white coats.

There were nine of them.

Court ladies serving in the palace were omnipresent.

They were dedicatedly assisting those who had been succubi in each room, consulting with them to prevent their transformation into demons or self-harm.

“Come this way. Here she comes. This is the Thai Bangkok branch, and the person in charge here is known as ‘Tai Sanggung’.”

“Gunggi, I am at your service. And, it is an honor to meet you, Goblin.”

The woman, appearing to be about 25 years old, was dressed in a court lady’s gache and a green hanbok, typical of a Thai woman, and was unmistakably not a Koryo-Thai.

Among Thais, she was exceptionally beautiful, resembling a Thai member of a K-POP idol group in Korea performing a court lady cosplay.

[Is she an ability user?]

“Yes.”

[Is that hair, a gache?]

“It is real.”

[It’s not a wig?]

“Yes. My ability is only E-grade, but it makes my hair grow fast.”

The abilities of ability users manifested in a myriad of ways.

Aside from generally good physical health, some women have abilities that were limited to specific parts of the body growing quickly.

And this woman, Tai Sanggung, joined the Secret Society with such an ability.

She held a position equivalent to the president of the Thai Hero Association, known as ‘Sanggung level’ in the Secret Society’s Thai branch.

[You’ve had a hard time. And… how was dealing with the succubi?]

“There were some discomforts, but no major issues in selecting them.”

[You’ve worked hard. Gunggi.]

A peculiarity.

There were no men here.

Perhaps it’s a consideration of the Thai branch under Tai Sanggung to accommodate the succubi.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything later. Ahem. So, what’s the result of the assessment? The ‘discards’?”

“I’ll report it now.”

Tai Sanggung pointed to a large screen panel, and soon a 3D map of the underground facility unfolded.

In the underground base, each room housed a succubus, and the rooms were categorized into red, yellow, and green.

“The grades are divided into three. 14 are safe to retain their memories, 48 wish for memory removal, and 21 might need to be ‘culled’.”

[That’s quite a few.]

Red, meaning 21 that needed to be executed.

The specific categories were decided through consultations by Tai Sanggung, the brewer, and the court ladies.

[What’s the extent of culling for these fledglings?]

“The most typical case would be… self-induced abortion addiction. They were dragged here, but their minds have deteriorated to the point where they can no longer make rational decisions.”

The decision to ‘cull’ them was made not out of female solidarity but because their lives could no longer continue as they had been in society.

[Bring me all the consultation records for the 21. I’ll check them again before execution.]

“I’ll bring them right away.”

As Tai Sanggung left to fetch the records, Gunggi nudged me in the ribs lightly.

“You don’t have to work so hard.”

[It’s about killing people; it can’t be taken lightly.]

It’s the removal of a personality.

Even if experts have made the decisions, I, as the executioner, must review them finally.

“Here’s the report.”

Tai Sanggung quickly brought a tablet, and I personally reviewed the records of the 21 slated for execution.

[…….]

Such as the number of abortions exceeding double digits.

Seducing men on the streets of Bangkok and eventually sending them to their ‘God’s resting place.’

Or killing people because they couldn’t resist threats to kill if they did not comply.

These actions were so horrific that they might as well be considered ‘extenuating circumstances’ in the reports.

There were numerous severe cases, too harrowing to mention individually or to contemplate in detail.

[Will this data be reported to the president through Gunggi later?]

“Yes, that’s correct.”

[Include Goblin’s cooperation when you file it. Attach it as a reference opinion.]

Since the Goblin had personally verified it, the Chief did not need to check it herself.

“Eh? Uh, what do you mean…”

[If needed, I’ll directly report to the Chief verbally, so there’s no need to review the details of those scheduled for disposal. Anything else?]

“Ah, understood.”

“Director Do. When you say things like that, it makes the staff nervous. They think an audit is coming.”

“…….”

Tai Sanggung smiled faintly, observing the situation.

I felt a bit sorry, as my role in the Secret Society might be making hard-working people nervous.

The direct executioner under the Chief.

Comparable to an audit team in a company, but with the authority of an executive.

It’s natural for the members to feel tense.

Especially since I was involved directly in the approval line.

[We’ll start the ‘personality execution’ now. Lead the way.]

“…Yes.”

Tai Sanggung led us with a tablet to the room.

Creak.

“We’ve talked about this already! What more is there to discuss…”

As soon as I entered the room, the succubus, about to throw a dish, froze with it in her hand.

“Go, Goblin…?”

[Have you ever killed anyone?]

I sat opposite the succubus, who briefly glanced at Tai Sanggung before quickly bowing her head.

The glance she sent was as if to say, ‘Isn’t this different from what was discussed?’

[Why? Did the person who brought you here tell you to be at ease? That whatever choice you make will be respected, that your wishes would be granted?]

“That’s… right…”

[Unfortunately, you do not qualify.]

“!!”

The succubus tried to rise, but I got up faster than her.

[Too slow.]

I climbed onto the table and aimed a baseball bat at the succubus’s forehead.

The succubus looked up at me with fear-filled eyes, biting her lower lip.

“Pl-please save me…! I don’t want to die…!”

[What were you doing when people who spoke like that were talking?]

“What do you mean…!”

[You, you’ve killed people directly. Using your ability, you killed those trying to come to the island.]

“……!!”

This woman is a murderer.

[It wasn’t just one or two. Under the Madam’s command, you directly drove boats and kidnapped those visiting the island. You locked up the men underground and tortured the women. Right?]

She’s not a murderer shaped by dire circumstances but one who took pleasure in killing; a demon wearing human skin.

[If you think it’s unfair that you are dying, raise your hand. And try saying, I did not kill anyone.]

“I, I did not kill…”

The succubus couldn’t finish her sentence.

As if she saw something more terrifying than I, her eyes wavered, and she fell back into her chair.

“Aaaagh!”

[No need for a lie detector or abilities. The truth is right in front of you.]

I created illusions.

Through hallucinations, this woman saw ‘those she killed’ before her eyes.

And I, using my ability, estimated the number of those she killed based on her memories.

The number was enough to fill the room.

[Be at ease. You will be reborn. The you of now will die, and you will be reborn as a new being to live for the world.]

“No, I don’t want toㅡㅡㅡ!”

Thump.

I struck the succubus’s head with the Goblin baseball bat.

The illusions filling the room slowly faded away.

Their bowing heads, as if regretful yet thankful, were just illusions I saw to ease my own mind.

[Then.]

I aimed the Goblin bat at the succubus’s head again.

[The first, ‘Big Mother,’ is born.]

Mind Crash.

Now, the succubus would die, and a new human, devoid of memories, would be born.
