Chapter 123 – 31. Reestablishing Relationships (2)
Lee Yu-jin’s funeral is the third funeral I have experienced in my 20-year-old life.
The first death of a person around me was Park So-young, who was in her class when she was in middle school.
The girl Ji-hye pushed to death from the stairs of the academy building.
Fortunately, the case that ended in an ‘accident’ was the result of an unexpected runaway of mentally cornered wisdom.
It was none other than me who drove her away. I carefully engineered a separation between her wisdom and her other friends, causing her to feel jealous, lonely, and deprived, so that she had only me to rely on.
It was my first challenge to make my first love in the 5th grade of elementary school into my woman.
Although an accident of injustice occurred due to my mistake in judgment, I think it was an inevitable sacrifice for perfect success.
Not sad, not sorry, not regretful.
My second funeral was for Jamie Cursreal and Sophie Magna, a couple who died in a sudden ‘terror’ at the academy.
A man and a woman who I took their own lives, and whose corpses were crushed throughout the mansion by Iris’ alter ego.
The two tried to curse Ji-hye, who was mine, and planned to kidnap her for their futile desire. It was a shameless act to sprinkle ashes on finished rice.
So I killed myself. They had to be punished. This was my legitimate right and duty.
I raped Sophie in front of Jamie’s eyes.
He must have met his end after looking at his fiancée’s corpse that smelled of chestnut flowers and repenting for his sins until the end.
This was my first murder and the only case of having sex with someone else’s non-virgin.
Personally, I think it was a beneficial experience that greatly broadened my knowledge.
Lee Yu-jin’s funeral will be held today and tomorrow at the ‘Palace of Seonghui Stars’ over two days.
This ritual is divided into two parts.
1. Today, I will do my courtesy to her according to the procedure of ‘Funeral in Korea’.
2. Tomorrow, after comforting her wrathful soul through her funeral rites, we will finally bury her in the graveyard of her imperial palace.
At a class meeting, my class couldn’t choose between the different funerals on Earth and other worlds and decided to do both.
From the time of her summoning to the moment of her death, Lee Yu-jin went only suffering in this world. She must have missed Earth more than anyone else. In order to comfort this resentment, it is necessary to see her off according to the procedure of her hometown.
In addition, the universal courtesy for the dead of the empire, ‘Memorial Soul’, cannot be given up. This is because this ceremony has practical effects and sanctity in the world where God exists.
The 3 princess and the imperial family readily accepted our request.
So, our class decided to stay here until the funeral was over, and see off her classmate’s bitter end.

“Thank you for coming to work.”
Dressed in her black suit, I greeted her 2nd Prince politely. He is currently a third-year student at the academy and the student council president. We study in the same space, but we haven’t met much in the meantime.
“Lee Yoo-jin’s death is also the emperor’s fault for not finding her in her early days, and for not properly cracking down on her back alley crimes.”
Dave Von Kairos said, touching his glasses. Despite his hard expression, the narrow eyes were still there.
“So you don’t have to thank me. This is the duty of the imperial family who reign in the Empire.”
The number of mourners was much greater than I expected.
From the royal family, 1st Princess Jennifer, 2nd Princess Soniel, 2nd Prince Dave, and 3rd Princess Amer came.
With the exception of Amer, the owner of the castle, all of them were so busy that literally only their faces were shown briefly.
At the academy, numerous students and professors, including Adele Griff, vice president of the Public Safety Department, senior Ian, president of the commoners’ dormitory, and Esna, my source of money, visited.
Those who took a step despite the sudden schedule were largely divided into two categories.
One is my classmates and close friends who paid their condolences with really pure intentions.
The other is people who approach and make eye prints with the intention of impressing the summoners.
The ratio was roughly half and half.
I was able to ‘personally’ realize this through the uninterrupted hallway.
Because,
“Thank you for coming.”
“Thank you for visiting.”
“Thank you for coming.”
“Thank you······.”
This is because I have to greet each of these countless mourners at the ceremony all day today.
As the resident host of this funeral.
‘I’ll follow you.’
Lee Yu-jin’s family was not here, so one of our class had to be the representative. However, Minho still got around in her wheelchair because her limbs were not normal.
So, first of all, I’m playing the role of Sangju from the morning, but I’m tired. In particular, his legs and mouth are being abused without rest.
Oh stop come
“Jihoo, should I replace you…?”
Wisdom, who noticed my irritation before anyone else, cautiously suggested it.
“You go back to your room and rest.”
However, it was impossible to make a pregnant woman suffer recklessly.
“It’s an order.”
Jihye reluctantly left at my whisper.
Shortly after, the kid who had been secretly peeping at us came up and talked to us.
“I’ll do it now. You go in and rest.”
Hyerin gave me a worried look. I shook my head as I felt the energy rising just by looking at her beautiful face.
“No. I’ll continue.”
“That’s all-“
“I have to.”
Hyerin would have sensed the subtle trembling in my voice.
“Hae-rin, did you hear? How did Yu-jin end up? How I killed Yu-jin.”
“That’s······.”
“I heard from the guards that I couldn’t properly collect her body because Eugene broke her body into pieces. I made it that way. So, at least for the last time, I…”
Hyerin’s eyes widened at my emotional whisper. She was probably startled. The weak side of strong, dependable and cool Jihoo.
Of course, it was all acting to stimulate Hye-rin’s feelings. The melancholic handsome man’s face becomes a painting.
“It’s not Jihoo. You, you did your best to protect people! It was inevitable. So, you don’t have to think about that!”
“Thank you… But Minho is right. I am a murderer. I am also a murderer who killed my friend… I might have been able to save Yujin…”
Minho’s talk was effective. The image of Park Min-ho in Hye-rin’s head fell like falling off a cliff. It was obvious even if I couldn’t see it.
Hyerin doesn’t need to get close to a man other than me.
She furrowed her eyebrows for a moment, but soon regained her sweet smile and turned to me. Soft seomseomoksu held my hand kindly. Her fingers were warm.
“Jihoo, please… Don’t beat yourself up. Then rest a little…”
“Still······.”
“It’s because I’m so worried… You seem very tired. You haven’t even been able to go to the bathroom properly until now. Leave this to me and get some sleep…”
“······Then I’ll be back in a little while. Thank you.”
At Hye-rin’s persuasion, I reluctantly took a heavy step. She watched my back until I was out of sight. I’m sure he’s surprised and worried about the new side of me.
Sometimes this is even necessary. Perhaps for the time being, Hyerin’s head will be filled with worries about me.
Yes, Hyerin. Think only of me I don’t need anything else.
‘Ah, I want to fucking eat.’
A woman named Min Hye-rin is of the highest class. All over the earth and this world, she has never seen a woman more perfect than her. She is the woman for me, who exactly fits my ideal type.
Of course, you can’t eat it in vain.
If you eat anything in a hurry, you won’t feel the taste properly. The more delicious the dish, the more relaxed and slow it is to savor it.
Min Hye-rin is like that to me.
I will slowly brainwash her like her wisdom. It will most likely require more effort than Wisdom. Even her long patience will be sweet to me.
When Hye-rin’s spirit completely collapses, she longs for my control.
I’ll take all of her
The process of “Gaslighting Min Hye-rin” Has already begun.
* * *
I didn’t stop thinking as I left the funeral home and went up to the floor where my classmates lived until tomorrow.
Over the past week, my relationships have changed a lot.
First, Esna. She, who was a friend from the academy club, was moved by my grace and was reborn as an ATM shop. It looks like she could rake her considerable gains from her in the future.
Second, Jeon Ji-hye. She evolved from being a sex woman to a procreative female. Therefore, it must be observed and managed carefully.
Third, Yuna Kim. This bitch played tricks on me, so I raped her in reverse. However, since the process was rather impulsive, additional measures are needed.
Fourth, Amer. This sex genius fell for Sonny Elle’s machinations and gave me her virginity. However, it has not yet been captured by me, so further action is required.
Among the four, Yuna Kim and Amer are the ones who need to redefine their relationship.
‘First of all, it’s an easy year.’
I opened my door and entered.
In the corner of the living room, Yuna Kim stood pathetically in a black suit.
“I… Why did you call me…? I didn’t tell anyone… I didn’t report it… Please…”
A beautiful voice that trembled as much as her shoulders.
I took off her coat and handed it to Ireina, and with her eyes, I put Yuna Kim into her bedroom.
She was thrown helplessly onto the bed by my rough hands. Celebrity-level beauty was in despair, anticipating the future development.
It was obvious why the owner had called the sex slave into the room.
