First Championship (1)

The University League is largely divided into regional qualifiers and the National League, which top-tier teams that perform well in the qualifiers advance to.
In the case of the regional qualifiers, it operates like a professional league where each team faces off twice, and rankings are determined by accumulating points: 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss.
On the other hand, the National League, despite having "league" in its name, actually operates as a tournament.
A total of 32 teams that performed well in their respective regions are assigned opponents through a random draw, and the winner is decided through a two-leg home and away series.
The winning team advances to the next round, and the losing team is eliminated. There is no extra time; in the event of a draw, goal difference takes priority, and if the goal difference is also tied, a penalty shootout is used as the rule.
Our Hojin University team met a team from the Jeonnam region as our first opponent in the Round of 32, winning 5:2 on aggregate home and away to easily advance to the Round of 16. In the Round of 16, we won 4:1 against a team from the Gyeonggi region, and in the quarterfinals, we won 4:2 against a team from the Seoul region, successfully securing a spot in the semifinals.
It's been 3 years since Hojin University even passed the qualifiers, so there's no need to mention the Round of 16, quarterfinals, or even the semifinals.
Forget the semifinals; even reaching the quarterfinals is the first time in the history of the Hojin University football team since its founding.
I started in 5 of the 6 matches Hojin University played, recording 7 goals and 4 assists, racking up 11 attacking points for a team that scored a total of 13 goals, which properly drew attention.
What I was most proud of wasn't just having a lot of attacking points, but that my assist ratio had increased.
This was entirely thanks to investing points into various stats.
That day, as soon as I opened the Status Window after the sex with Oh Ha-rin, event messages poured out.
Excluding the trivial messages that usually pop up, there were First-time Rewards...
<<First-time Reward! — Gold-rimmed Pussy!>>
—You have succeeded in having sex with a woman with personal assets of over 100 billion won! Being a kept man isn't impossible for you! Acquisition amount increased by 30%!
<<First-time Reward! — Taste of a Diamond Spoon!>>
—A capable man who has eaten a woman from a family with assets over 10 trillion won! Acquisition amount increased by 30%!
<<First-time Reward! — Hng Virgin Beach!>>
—A feat of turning a virgin beach, who possesses extremely high sexual desire and beauty capable of seducing men at any time but is only well-versed in theory, into a non-virgin beach! Cheers to your eye for finding such a woman! Acquisition amount increased by 50%!
A whopping 3 of them appeared.
My god. What is a Gold-rimmed Pussy, and what is a Diamond Spoon?
But above all, the 'Hng Virgin Beach' is insane.
No matter how much Oh Ha-rin claimed to be a virgin, it was hard to believe completely, but the system's guarantee made even such slight doubts disappear.
'My god. So a virgin beach actually exists?'
It's a trashy thing to say, but honestly, I prefer a virgin over a non-virgin.
And I prefer a virgin beach over just a regular virgin.
Virgin beaches are the best.
On top of that, a 50% increase in acquisition rate as a bonus.

Thanks to that, I was able to get unimaginable points.
By getting 36 points at once, added to the existing points, I was able to raise my stats by a whopping 43 points.
So, no matter how blunt she is, how can she not be pretty?
Besides, unexpectedly, Oh Ha-rin was skilled at housework and more domestic than I imagined.
"Wake up."
"What time is it?"
"7 o'clock. You said you have an away game today. Wake up quickly."
"If you give me a kiss."
As I lay buried in the bed, sticking out only my lips, a light kiss passed by.
When I yawned and came out of the bedroom, Oh Ha-rin, wearing an apron, was busily moving around preparing breakfast, and,
"I've collected the articles about you on the table. Read them once."
From internet articles to magazine columns, she even collected and organized every single article about me.
So, while Oh Ha-rin finished preparing breakfast, I would sip the hot Americano she had prepared in advance and skim through the articles; that's the scenery of my mornings these days.
Before I knew it, I was deeply immersed in the comfort Oh Ha-rin provided and was living together.
'She's kind of like a mom.'
Seeing her back as she excitedly prepared breakfast, it reminded me of my mom in Seoul... I guess the saying that a man's ideal type is a mom who gives him sex is spot on.
Scratching my stomach, I picked up the magazine placed on top, and there was a page kindly marked.
<University League King of Kings Tournament! The Dark Horse's Amazing Run!!>
These days, when even the fully bloomed cherry blossoms have all fallen. Our editor has brought some good news to soothe your lonely hearts. The protagonist is none other than Hong Min-jun, the 'comic-book-perfect boy' who made our hearts flutter just a while ago.
[Photo of Hong Min-jun immediately after the match: Just as the cherry blossoms were scattering, the prince, who looked like a pretty boy from a comic book, has grown up impressively!]
As readers who subscribe to this magazine regularly would know, Hong Min-jun is a fresh 20-year-old prospect who recently joined the Hojin University football team. He was a talent who made a name for himself as a genius in middle school and was even called up to the national team, but after experiencing a slump in high school, he has made a spectacular revival upon becoming a university student.
In the main tournament of the University League, the King of Kings Tournament, he led the team to the semifinals for the first time since its founding, showing off his genius without reserve.
[Photo of Hong Min-jun during the match: Look at the prince's sharp eyes, focused on the ball!]
Thanks to the performance of Hong Min-jun, who has started in 5 out of 6 matches so far and recorded a whopping 7 goals and 4 assists, racking up over 2 stats per match, Hojin University is on a roll!
This coming Saturday, Hojin University's semifinal match will be held in Incheon, so if you are a reader with time, I recommend watching it.

—By Editor Kang Su-yeon
"Hmm...."
Reporter Noona must have a really hard time with company life too.
I folded the cringey column neatly and placed it on the table.
Even if it's a bit cringey, well, facts are facts.
With this momentum of devouring the tournament, the tournament MVP will be mine.
After sweeping the top scorer, assist king, and best player awards, I'll participate in the Olympics, solve my Military Service Issue, and advance overseas! Yeah~ Perfect.
"It's all done. Eat."
Oh Ha-rin is basically good at cooking.
It's not just that she makes it delicious, but she prepares meals tailored to my characteristics as an athlete.
An athlete's diet is something that has no end if you try to manage it.
If you want to manage it really strictly, alcohol is of course out, and even carbonated drinks are banned. Fried foods or high-sodium foods should also be restricted.
Naturally, there is no athlete who manages their diet 100% perfectly, and they compromise to some extent, but Oh Ha-rin raised that compromise point quite high. By making the food that should be tasteless delicious and to my liking.
Just looking at this drink I'm drinking right now, it's sweet and fizzy, just like a carbonated drink, but isn't it a homemade drink Oh Ha-rin made by mixing fruit and sparkling water?
Oh Ha-rin, who was resting her chin on her hand placed on the table and watching me eat, was smiling contentedly with an expression that she was full just by looking at me.
"It's delicious today too. Aren't you eating?"
"You're asking pretty quickly. I'm fine, so eat."
After finishing the meal like that and coming out after a light shower, I changed into the clothes Oh Ha-rin had prepared on the bed and headed to the parking lot. Then, the car Oh Ha-rin had already started was waiting.
Once she dropped me off in front of the school, it was time to be alone from now on.
'I feel like I'm being tamed.'
I don't know how I lived without Oh Ha-rin.
As I got out of the car, humming—
"That fucker. A woman is dropping him off again."
"...Fuck, I'm so jealous. Having such a pretty woman drop him off every morning."
"Why is my life like this."
The jealousy of the pathetic men exploded, but.
"Hey."
Oh Ha-rin, who suddenly rolled down the window, poked her face out,
"Give me a kiss before you go."
I gave a light kiss on the lips she tapped with her finger and greeted the seniors good morning.
"Seniors, good morning. It's a good morning today too."
"It's good for you, you asshole!!"
Oh my.
It seems our seniors' jealousy has exploded.
"Jin-ho sunbae. I'll get you an assist in this match."
"...You will?"
"Gyu-sik sunbae, it's time for you to score a goal, right? I'll deliver a perfect delivery cross to you today."
"You little... I was going to call you a slacker, but I'll let it slide."
But you see, you just need to appease a few influential seniors.
Especially these days, maybe because I've taken a liking to racking up assists rather than goals, my relationship with the forward seniors has become very good.
The central striker, Na Jin-ho sunbae, and the right winger on the opposite side of me, Lee Gyu-sik sunbae, are the biggest beneficiaries who have accumulated sweet goals from my honey passes.
"In that sense, Yoon-hyeok sunbae. Some of that pass know-how..."
"What know-how. You've already sucked all my know-how dry."
"That long pass is still a bit clumsy. Please give me some tips on the liner pass."
"Do you think I'm your personal tutor?"
He acts prickly, but I know he'll spill all his know-how during practice.
I told you, Yoon-hyeok sunbae is a tsundere.
"Gather up quickly! We're busy because we have to go to Incheon today."
After a light morning stretch, our team boarded the tour bus chartered by the school and headed to Incheon, where the first leg of the semifinals would be held.
