Chapter 456 – wwwwwwwwww

“Hyeji-chan www!”

“Kyoukyou!”

Kyoukyou rushed over and embraced Hyeji tightly.

Considering their height difference, it was more like a big dog cuddling Hyeji.

But they didn’t care about such trivialities and expressed their happiness to see each other.

“You really got prettier! I almost didn’t recognize you!”

“Thank you www!”

It’s been over three years since they parted.

In that time, Kyoukyou’s transformation was astonishing.

It was so incredible that I even began to doubt if she was the same person.

[Meanwhile, Hyeji hasn’t changed at all.]

‘That’s just violence, you know.’

After they somewhat diffused the joy of reunion, they started to slowly approach us.

Kyoukyou was being piggy-backed by Hyeji.

Of course, given the height difference, it was more accurate to say Hyeji was dragging Kyoukyou along.

“I was shocked when you suddenly said you were coming to the Greater Japan Empire!”

“I ended up coming somehow. Anyway, I’m super glad to see you.”

“I missed you too www.”

Ignoring all that, they just continued to grin like fools.

“But what’s this shocking news you’re talking about?”

“Well, you’d better hear it directly.”

Finally, Hyeji and Kyoukyou arrived in front of us.

I waved my hand at Kyoukyou with a slight smile.

Her face began to fill with astonishment as she recognized me.

“Oh!”

“Lo-long time no see.”

Seems like she didn’t expect me to be here too.

“Beast of doom www!”

“No, f*ck!”

It was surprising in a different sense.

“Just a joke www! I’m glad to see you too, Shinwoo www!”

“……Yeah… glad to see you…”

She smiled again, trying to joke, but I still didn’t get it.

Even so, this was a foreign country, not Korea.

How on earth do they know about me?

“But why am I the beast of doom?”

“These days, Hallyu is popular www. So stories about Shinwoo-chan have spread widely www.”

It sounded kinda plausible but still felt off.

But even so, is that reason enough for Japanese people to be scared and run away?

To be frank, if they really knew me well, there’d be no reason for such reactions.

After all, I’m not exactly the typical protagonist of a web novel but rather a genuinely good person.

[Is your conscience really dead?]

‘But a protagonist like that isn’t very common, right?’

[No, f*ck. It might not be common, but… it is… it is…]

To resolve that doubt, I spoke to Kyoukyou.

“Anyway, how did the news about me spread so much…?”

“Harmful species, beast of doom, the poison of Joseon, king of Chosunjing, and more. Want to hear more?”

“……No, just stop…”

I immediately regretted asking.

I didn’t expect much because of people’s reactions earlier, but I never thought it would be this horrible.

On the other hand, Hyeji had a different experience.

“So why aren’t people scared of you?”

“Because I’m overwhelmingly strong, called Asia’s pride, or the Demon King www!”

“Maybe they just want your autograph?”

“Probably, if it weren’t for Shinwoo-chan www.”

People really shouldn’t leave things hanging like that.

I thought, if only I had destroyed Korea instead of the Academy, maybe their evaluation would be a little different.

Letting out a big sigh, Hyeji suddenly tapped my shoulder.

She must have been quite satisfied with her evaluation.

“See, Shinwoo? Your girlfriend is this amazing.”

“……Yeah…”

At that moment, Kyoukyou suddenly shouted.

As if she’d seen something unbelievable and was shocked.

“AAAHHH!!!”

Soon, Kyoukyou clung to Hyeji, gripping her shoulders tightly with a face full of excitement.

“Hyeji-chan!!! Did you just say girlfriend!!!”

“Yeah.”

Meanwhile, she made a gesture putting her thumb between her index and middle fingers.

“Could it be that you and Shinwoo-chan did it!!!”

“We totally did.”

“Shinwoo-chan, you beast www!”

“I devoured her.”

“Ah, what a delightful surprise…”

Hearing Hyeji’s response, Kyoukyou grinned as if transcending to another realm.

“So that shocking info you were gonna share was THIS www?”

“Yep, were you surprised?”

“Ahh… finally… so sweet…”

Then Kyoukyou started giggling again and hugged Hyeji.

“But how much did you two do? Shinwoo-chan looks much skinnier compared to before!!!”

“Actually, we weren’t the only ones.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Hyeji, with a somewhat complicated smile, pointed to the other heroines.

She needed to introduce them to others, but deep down, she probably didn’t want to do that.

For that, I truly felt sorry and thankful.

“Who are they?”

“Shinwoo’s concubines.”

In the end, it was a complicated relationship that wouldn’t exist without Hyeji’s permission.

Meanwhile, Kyoukyou seemed to be in disbelief, her pupils twitching in shock.

With a trembling mouth, she barely managed to squeeze out three words about her feelings.

“……I’m… out…?”

Then, Kyoukyou detached herself from Hyeji and came to me, grabbing my collar tightly.

She began to question me urgently to confirm what she heard from Hyeji.

“Shinwoo-chan! Do you really have this many concubines?!”

“……It’s true. To be precise, they’re all my girlfriends.”

[Looks like she’s really shocked by how many heroines there are.]

‘Yeah.’

I could totally understand Kyoukyou’s reaction.

Last time I saw her, she was a clueless idiot.

And that clueless idiot now has so many girlfriends?

Surely, it must be unbelievable for her.

“When did Shinwoo-chan become this much of a potential freak!!!”

“Oh, was that surprising…?”

“On top of that, a Great Demon and a furry, too!”

“……Just say hand instead of d*ck…”

Seems like she really couldn’t believe it in a different way.

“This is www completely human disqualification www Darwin is crying www.”

“F*ck.”

I hadn’t really thought about it too much until now, but looking back, the heroines’ races were all over the place.

3/4 Elf Elcia.

Half succubus Ayeon.

And half furry Caressy.

Hyeji, being the only human, was probably the most normal.

‘Though really, Hyeji is the most detached from being human…’

[You’re not exactly a human either, you stupid dog.]

‘Don’t say bad things…’

Kyoukyou ended up saying something shocking too.

“Are you thinking of appearing in adult videos www!!!”

“No, you crazy b*tch!!!”

Saying that, I smacked Kyoukyou on the head.

[My name is Kim Shinwoo. I’m 23 years old.]

‘Please shut up, you a*shole.’

Kyoukyou rubbed her sore head while looking at the heroines with a mix of surprise and excitement.

The situation must have been truly astonishing.

“At this point, it’s a miracle Shinwoo-chan didn’t die www.”

“I almost died from embarrassment…”

“Ah… I’m really sorry… Did any sticks break…?”

“Not yet…”

Meanwhile, the heroines began to speak up after seeing Kyoukyou’s reaction.

“It seems like in the land of potential freaks Japan, our Master is quite exceptional!”

“Of course. My lord has even penetrated Lady Elcia.”

“Honestly, at this level, Shinwoo is basically just Japanese, right?”

“Both of you, shut the f*ck up!”

Soon after, Kyoukyou joined the group of heroines.

These heroines were all overflowing with character in many ways.

They were definitely quite challenging to handle.

“With Eluh, doesn’t it smell like a chicken coop www!”

“No way! Fck off you Japanese btch!!!”

Still, Kyoukyou had a personality that blended well with others.

“Have you given up the path of the martial artist to walk the path of AV www!”

“……She’s a succubus, not anything else.”

So there wouldn’t be any problems.

“You gotta put pets in their cages! Why don’t Koreans know such a simple fact!!!”

“Hey, you crazy b*tch! I’ll seriously kill you!!!”

……Probably.

“Shinwoo, you seem to be enjoying yourself, huh?”

“……Yeah…”

[With that level of dealing damage, you probably joined the Hunter Academy, right?]

‘Even back in Korea, I was tough, but now it feels even fiercer than back then.’

Anyway, this made me understand Hyeji’s past actions a bit better.

While we were busy preparing for everything, Hyeji had her mobile phone glued to her hand.

Even when we came to Japan, she told us just to wait.

Now I see she was urgently contacting Kyoukyou to meet up.

“Hyeji.”

“What?”

However, there was still one part I didn’t understand.

Even if we assume her actions were to meet Kyoukyou.

Our preparations were mostly done quickly, except for a few things.

So why did she insist on coming after a week?

“But why insist on waiting a week to come here?”

“Oh, that?”

She took the risk of monsters going crazy just to say it.

At that moment, Kyoukyou, with the heroines, suddenly fixed her gaze on me.

That gaze was filled with excitement.

“Shinwoo-chan! Just like I told Hyeji-chan, let’s have fun together tomorrow www!”

Looking at Kyoukyou and cocking my head in confusion, the heroines all turned to her.

Kyoukyou opened her mouth to clarify and put my lingering questions to rest.

“From tomorrow onward, the Hunter Academy festival starts www!”

“Aha.”

Now I understood why she insisted on waiting a week before coming.
