After the Olympics (3)

It's no secret how promiscuous the Athletes' Village is.
You can tell just by looking at how the amount of condoms distributed for free at every Olympics has increased exponentially since they first started doing it at the '88 Seoul Olympics.
Of course, not everyone uses condoms for that purpose. Some might just throw them away, keep them as souvenirs, or give them out, but it's an undeniable fact that the number of condoms used in the Athletes' Village is increasing.
They even go so far as to call the Athletes' Village a "Sex Village."
But even if they call it a Sex Village and distribute hundreds of thousands of condoms, it's not like the athletes are dogs in heat, fucking 24/7 throughout the entire Olympics.
There is a specific period when the Athletes' Village truly becomes a Sex Village.
It's right around the time when most of the games are over.
The Olympics are held every 4 years.
To be precise, they alternate between Summer and Winter every 2 years, but since the sports are different, for the athletes, it's effectively held once every 4 years.
The athletes have been training hard for 4 years for this one single opportunity.
If you consider that South Korean high school students study like crazy for 3 years for just one day—the CSAT—it's easy to understand.
There are no "second chances" or "third chances" at the Olympics. If you want to try again, you have no choice but to wait 4 years—meaning you become a "4th-year student" in CSAT terms.
Naturally, when the Olympic season arrives, you're bound to suffer from the pressure of the games and stress about your performance.
You might grit your teeth and endure it during the competition period, but what happens once the games you've prepared for for 4 years are over? Whether you win a medal or get eliminated in the preliminaries, once the games are over, the athletes' pent-up stress explodes.
With what? With sexual desire, of course.
The reason is simple.
You've been suffering from extreme stress and are finally liberated, and suddenly you're surrounded by young, healthy men and women? Furthermore, there's an unspoken culture of keeping what happens in the Athletes' Village under wraps, so how could young, healthy men and women who've just been freed from extreme stress not hook up?
It's not for nothing that the Athletes' Village is called a Sex Village.
As the Olympics near their end, it literally turns into an animal kingdom.
The atmosphere is so promiscuous that even athletes who were virgins end up having sex in the Athletes' Village.
Even athletes who have the self-control to maintain their virginity, along with the grueling training and diet control required to prepare for the Olympics, end up falling for the atmosphere of the Sex Village.
In fact, if you walk around the dorms, you can frequently run into athletes out hunting. And it's not just hunting; you can often see them hitting it off on the spot and heading straight into a secluded area.
If you're a healthy man, you can't help but be seduced by this atmosphere. No, it's the same for women, not just men.
If you're an athlete capable of competing in the Olympic finals, you must have an incredible amount of physical activity, and exercise boosts male hormones. Male hormones are the source of sexual desire.
If young men and women with already high libidos are thrown into this kind of atmosphere, how many people wouldn't get swept up in it?
That's why the South Korean coaching staff manages the team strictly.
They confiscate the condoms as soon as the organizers hand them out, make them move as a group instead of acting individually, and even have them return home right when the Sex Village is at its peak.
Maybe it's thanks to the coaching staff's efforts, or maybe the athletes are just being careful, but Korean athletes are definitely less swept up in this Athletes' Village atmosphere... though who knows. Maybe they're doing everything they need to do in secret, just like us.
Seeing the seniors happily swinging their hips around, I wonder if I should believe the claim that Korean athletes don't get swept up in the Athletes' Village atmosphere.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"No. I was just thinking that the Athletes' Village is quite nice."
"Kek~ Right? Enjoy it while you can. Once you go outside, you'll be a public figure and won't even be able to do this."
Seol Yo-han-sunbae, who had been giggling, suddenly turned serious.
"Do you know why I participated in the Olympics?"
"Obviously for the military service exemption, right?"
Seol Yo-han-sunbae, who had returned to the K-League from the Bundesliga due to military service issues, was playing for the Police Agency team. Looking at his skills, he could play in the Bundesliga, so he must be planning to go back overseas once his military service issue is resolved.
"Of course, that too. But this is my second Olympics, you know."
"Right?"
"I'm the one who agreed to the Wild Card because I really couldn't forget this atmosphere."
"...Sunbae, does your wife know about this?"
"Of course she doesn't, you little shit! It's a secret, got it?"
"......."
Watching his back as he excitedly left the dorm, I made a resolution.
I shouldn't be like that.
I clicked my tongue, and I felt a gaze staring at me from the side.
It was Yoon-hyeok-sunbae.
"...Why again? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Tsk. This is weird."
What is this sunbae talking about now?
"You seemed like you'd be out chasing women all day... but this is unexpected?"
"Hey, Sunbae. I'm not the kind of guy who goes around meeting just any woman."
"Like hell you aren't, who are you trying to fool? Don't you remember how you were after the Round of 16 ended?"
"I don't know. I don't remember."
"What a load of bullshit. How many was it? There were so many I'm confused. 20? 22 in 4 days? You were fucking around like a maniac."
"...That was the past me. The current me has changed. I am the so-called New Hong Min-jun."
That's right. The past me was a moron.
The current me has been reborn.
"So, you're not going to meet any women?"
"...That's not it."
"Damn it, I knew it. A dog never stops eating shit. I knew it."
"I don't meet them indiscriminately like before."
Maybe it's because I raised my Intelligence, but I realized a fact I hadn't known before.
There was no need to struggle to meet women.
Why?
Because I am a superior Alpha Male.
It's bragging, but my popularity isn't limited to just Korea.
The biggest rising star of this Olympics is, without a doubt, me, Hong Min-jun. If it's skill, I have skill; if it's looks, I have looks; plus, I have an attractive husky voice.
From the perspective of the world, an amateur player who isn't even a pro led a team from the peripheral country of Korea to the finals, and with overwhelming performance, took the top scorer title and the tournament MVP.
Isn't this basically the protagonist?
As the Olympics' biggest rising star and beneficiary, women flock to me even if I just sit still. Seriously.
If I just sit in front of the dorm and sunbathe, women hit on me so much. Ha... it's actually annoying.
"Sunbae. Only losers go around hitting on women first."
"......."
"A true master like me just sits back, and women come looking for me on their own! All I have to do is pick and choose the ones I like."
"Cut the crap. Do you think I don't know you? You're doing this because of that German girl from last time, right?"
"......."
How did he know?
"Well, I guess. You got burned that bad, so you have to be careful."
During the last Round of 16, when I was meeting women indiscriminately.
Originally, there's an unspoken rule that what happens in the Athletes' Village stays in the Athletes' Village. I know it, you know it, and any athlete who enjoys free sex knows this unspoken rule.
But strangely, the women I had sex with started getting obsessed with me.
Especially the more sex I had, the worse the obsession got, and the German girl I did it with the most even went as far as to obsess over marrying me.
Fortunately, she didn't even know where Korea was, so I told her that if she married me, she'd have to wear a hijab and do housework for the rest of her life, and a few days later she appeared with a haggard face and cried, saying she'd give up.
Ugh, just thinking about it makes my balls shrink even now.
"It's really strange. Why are the women so obsessed with you?"
"Ah, Sunbae. Do I really have to say it out loud for you to know?"
"What is this little shit about to say now...."
"My face."
"...Fuck, I can't even argue with that."
"And this."
I tapped my crotch with my hand.
"...Big black guy energy."
"And finally, my technique."
"I'm gonna hit you."
"Ah! Ow! Sunbae, did you really hit me? Wow~ Sunbae, you're in big trouble now. How dare you hit the Nation's Little Brother, Hong Min-jun? You're now a Nation's Traitor, Sunbae."
"Die, you little shit, die. A traitor? I'll become a traitor after killing you, get over here."
"Ah, wait, ah, you hit a bone! That really hurts!"
It's scary that women are strangely obsessed with me, but I can't just stop having sex.
Why would I give up something that good... No, I can't give up sex, if only for the Points.
So... I just have to be careful when I meet them, right?
That's why I decided to be selective this time.
I have plenty of time, too.
Since we won the silver medal, I have time to kill until the awards ceremony and the closing ceremony. The finals are over, so there's no training either.
So, I invested a precious day of my time.
First, I launch the app. My inbox is overflowing.
'Cut. Cut. Cut. Pass. Cut. Cut.'
The criteria for the first round of screening were simple.
No profile picture? Cut. Have a profile picture but ugly? Cut. Even if they're pretty, if they're not stunningly beautiful? Cut.
Deleting messages is a chore in itself.
After finishing the first round of screening, I immediately go into the second round.
The second round of screening is the "Hangul Patch" status.
You dare send me a message and write in some gibberish language I can't understand? You're all eliminated.
If I can't speak a foreign language, the woman should at least be able to speak Korean.
They fall like flies in the second round. There are many women I regret losing, but surprisingly, there are many Korean speakers, so the disappointment disappears quickly.
'Is this the power of the Korean Wave...?'
I can't believe pretty girls with pale skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes are this good at Korean.
My national pride is swelling.
The next, third round of screening is a database check using my own AI.
In other words, it's Googling.
Since they're all athletes competing in the Olympic finals, basic information comes up when you search for them. If you run it through a translator and skim it, you can get a good estimate.
Now, I pick out the women who have a lot and are smart from among these.
'Women with good family backgrounds, good education, and plenty of money or popularity.'
Because that's the only way they won't cling to me mindlessly.
And so, after pouring in a whole day of time, the woman I picked and chose.
"That's you, Elena. You're truly the best."
"......."
Elena's expression rotted upon hearing my compliment.
Why?
