The Second Trip to Korea
“Yongtae~!”
As soon as I stepped off the plane and entered the airport, Han Yugyeong spotted me and waved enthusiastically. It was already past mid-June, so she was dressed lightly in a sleeveless white dress that suited her perfectly. She looked stunning, as always.
“I didn’t expect you to come all the way to the airport.”
“Hehe, I wanted to surprise you♥”
We had originally planned to meet near Hanguk (Korean) University, so seeing her suddenly appear caught me off guard. As a celebration for our long-awaited reunion, we shared a warm embrace, exchanging body heat and melting away the time apart. Yugyeong was incredibly beautiful, and my own looks far exceeded the average, so we naturally drew every eye in the terminal. The stares were starting to feel uncomfortable. Time to head out.
“Shall we go?”
“Yeah! We can just take the car I drove here.”
Following Yugyeong’s lead, we headed to the parking lot where her bodyguard, Dixon, was waiting in the driver’s seat. Dixon was a massive Caucasian man—the bodyguard I had personally recommended to her.
In the game Mega Corp’s Youngest Son, there was an early event where the bodyguard assigned by her family betrayed her. So unless I had luckily pulled an extremely useful trait from the gacha at the start, it was necessary to hire a different bodyguard. In my memory, there was a list of cost-effective, capable bodyguards that could be hired early on.
Dixon was one of them. His greatest advantage as Yugyeong’s escort was that he was gay. That meant I could entrust her to him without any worries. The only bodyguards who wouldn’t make a move on her were either Dixon or a female bodyguard. But due to innate physical differences between men and women, any woman skilled enough to be a reliable bodyguard was either a superhuman or had undergone body modification—which made them extremely expensive. Superhumans were rare and powerful, so their rates were high, and body-modified guards demanded steep fees to recoup their initial investment.
“You recommended me to my boss? Thank you.”
“It was nothing. I simply heard you were a promising bodyguard.”
After shaking Dixon’s hand, we climbed into the back seat. It was around four o’clock, so traffic shouldn’t be too bad yet. We’d probably arrive a little early.
“Oh! That’s right—Health Miracle is already at 850 dollars?”
“See? Good thing you listened to me. I’ll keep feeding you information from now on.”
Yugyeong brought up the topic of Health Miracle. Two days ago it had been 800 dollars, and now it had risen another fifty. She said she had invested thirty million won when I first told her, then kept adding more until the total reached fifty million won… She must have made a fortune.
“Pull out once it goes over a thousand dollars. The peak should be around eleven hundred.”
Health Miracle’s hair-loss treatment, Forest, had overwhelmingly superior effects compared to existing medications. However, it also carried the same side effects—most notably erectile dysfunction, decreased sexual function, reduced semen volume, and gynecomastia. These side effects were more severe than those of ordinary hair-loss drugs, which made the company a prime target for rival pharmaceutical giants who were jealous of its meteoric rise.
Health Miracle insisted that only a tiny fraction of users experienced side effects, but the combined pressure from the major pharma conglomerates and the media outlets they sponsored caused the stock to crash. The share price, which had once reached 1,150 dollars, plummeted below 300. Still, that was three hundred times higher than its original one-dollar value, so it was undeniable that the company had become quite large. All thanks to men who had chosen hair over their dicks.
It would only be revealed much later that the actual side-effect rate was only slightly higher than the 2–3 percent of conventional drugs—around 3–4 percent—allowing the stock to rebound somewhat. But that was still far in the future.
“Anyway, what’s the plan for today?”
“We’ll stop by a bar called Lime Tree to show them you exist, then leave and spend time together. Sound good?”
“I’m all for it.”
She had made a bet with Park Sangbeom regarding my existence. Somehow, I doubted he would honor it even if he lost. If he kept bothering Yugyeong, I’d just get rid of him… Ah! I could offer the corpse to the Daughter of the Abyss. Was this trait actually meant for body disposal?
I felt a surge of satisfaction at the Offering to the Daughter of the Abyss magic circle, whose uses had just increased. Until now I hadn’t known what to offer, but from today onward I decided to use it to dispose of bodies if I ever killed someone. Still, I had no idea what the Daughter of the Abyss liked, so later I’d try offering her some sundae gukbap—my favorite. She wouldn’t hate it, right? It’s seriously delicious.
While chatting idly with Yugyeong, we soon arrived near Hanguk (Korean) University.

Park Sangbeom smiled as he watched the 53rd batch juniors arrive one after another. Finally, he would expose Han Yugyeong’s lie. Objectively speaking, even if he revealed her deception, there was nothing for him to gain. But the increasingly obsessed Park Sangbeom lacked such cold judgment.
“Oppa, I’m going to eat a lot today~!”
“Hyung, you worked hard gathering everyone.”
“Yeah, eat as much as you want.”
Park Sangbeom greeted the juniors with a smile that grew wider as time passed. It was because Han Yugyeong still hadn’t shown up. He assumed she was too afraid to come and face the truth.
Of course she can’t come. It was all a lie.
The promised time of six o’clock had already passed. In the end, neither Han Yugyeong nor her imaginary boyfriend appeared. Even if she didn’t show, he felt like he could happily drink tonight. He could always meet her tomorrow or the day after and make her admit it.
The gathered juniors, probably because he had announced it in the group chat, kept looking around for her. He could hear them whispering—“It really was a lie, wasn’t it?”—and a sly smile crept across his face.
That was when he heard Han Yugyeong’s voice.
“Sorry I’m a bit late.”
Han Yugyeong was standing beside a man Park Sangbeom had never seen before. Even at a glance, the man was easily over 185 centimeters tall with a solid, muscular build and strikingly handsome features. He was so good-looking that even celebrities would feel inferior. The moment Park Sangbeom saw him, he instinctively knew—this man was on an entirely different level as a male. A wave of defeat washed over him as he looked at Jin Yongtae, but he quickly shook his head to dispel it.
“This is my boyfriend, Jin Yongtae.”
“Hello. I’m Jin Yongtae.”
The noisy bar fell silent in an instant. They were the perfect couple—both breathtakingly attractive. While the man was incredibly handsome, Han Yugyeong had always worn oversized button-ups, jeans, or tracksuits. Today, perhaps because she was meeting her boyfriend, she wore a luxurious white dress from a high-end brand. She had always been pretty, but with the elegant outfit and carefully applied makeup, she looked even more radiant. Park Sangbeom felt an indescribable jealousy at her appearance. She only wore simple loungewear when she met me yesterday… he thought bitterly.
“Yugyeong~! Sit here! There are seats!”
Son Nari, who was close to her, waved and pointed to the seat beside her and the one across.
“We’re just here to say hello. Since I haven’t seen my boyfriend in a while, we’re going on a date.”
“Didn’t you say you’d join the drinking party?”
Park Sangbeom tried to stop her, but even he could tell his words sounded strange. Yugyeong looked at him with cold eyes.
“Didn’t you tell the 53rd batch group chat that anyone who could attend should come? I never said I would participate, sunbae.”
Park Sangbeom hurriedly opened the group chat. Countless juniors had replied saying they would attend, but there was no message from Han Yugyeong at all.
“And since I won the bet, you must keep your promise.”
Han Yugyeong and Jin Yongtae turned to leave. Just before they walked out, Jin Yongtae wrapped an arm around her waist, pulled her close, and looked back at Park Sangbeom with a bright smile.
That… that bastard?
Oblivious to Park Sangbeom’s inner turmoil, the couple left and the bar grew noisy once again. But none of the commotion reached his ears.
What did I say I would do if I lost…?
He had been so certain of victory that he had already forgotten what he had promised her.
“Ah!”
The promise had been that he would never approach or speak to her again. But of course, Park Sangbeom had no intention of keeping it. To the son of a corporate giant, a verbal promise was nothing more than empty words that could be overturned at any time.
“I’ll step out for a moment. You all eat and enjoy yourselves. I already paid, so don’t worry—just drink and have fun.”
He spoke to his juniors without waiting for a reply and headed outside. He was going after Han Yugyeong and Jin Yongtae. But because he had spent time trying to remember the exact terms of the bet, too much time had passed. By then, the couple was nowhere to be seen.

One hour earlier.
We stopped by Yugyeong’s studio apartment near Hanguk (Korean) University to drop off my luggage. Her place was in a nearby apartment building. It was far too spacious for a girl living alone, but compared to what one would expect from a chaebol daughter, it felt quite modest. Just like her usually neat personality, the house was spotless and tidy. Before dropping off the bags, I told Dixon in the parking lot that he had the rest of the day off until Monday afternoon, and he looked absolutely delighted.
“We still have plenty of time, don’t we?”
Since traffic had been light, we arrived much earlier than expected. There were still over forty minutes left until the appointed time. Yugyeong sat quietly, her face faintly flushed. As a gentleman, I couldn’t possibly leave a lady waiting. I walked over to her and kissed her.
“Mmm…”
Yugyeong let out soft moans even from just kissing. I continued kissing her while sliding my hand down her back, caressing her buttocks over her clothes. The firm yet soft texture felt incredible.
“Haaang…♡ Don’t just tease my butt…”
“Then where should I touch?”
“M… my…”
“Hm? What was that?”
When I asked again, Yugyeong’s face turned bright red as she spoke more clearly.
“My… pussy…”
“If you don’t say it properly, I won’t touch it.”
“My pussy… please touch my pussy. I’ve been so empty without you, Yongtae. Fill me up…!”
Just as she asked, I began using my body to fill the emptiness inside her. Forty minutes later, Yugyeong was trembling in climax, squirting clear fluids with wet sounds. I lay beside her, slightly exhausted myself, watching her body continue to quiver. The clock hanging where we could see it from the bed read 6:05.
“Yugyeong.”
“Ahhng… what?”
“We’re late.”
Despite her trembling legs, she got up and began fixing her appearance at astonishing speed. Didn’t women usually take forever to get ready? In just ten minutes, she had fixed her hair and reapplied her smudged makeup.
“Don’t women usually take a long time to get ready?”
“I don’t want to lose the bet that badly. Let’s just show our faces, then go eat. I’m starving!”
I was hungry too, since I had only eaten lightly to match the flight schedule. The bar where her classmates were gathered wasn’t far. We arrived around 6:20. As we entered, I spotted Park Sangbeom, who looked exactly like his character from the game. He had a handsome face that somehow inspired disgust, decently trained muscles, and a confident expression. But that confidence vanished the moment he saw me.
While Yugyeong and Park Sangbeom were talking, I was busy thinking about the weaknesses of the BS Group and what kind of profit I could gain from them.
“Yongtae, we’re done talking. Let’s go.”
“Oh, already?”
Then, before we left, I decided to set one last fire in Park Sangbeom’s heart. I wrapped my arm around Yugyeong’s waist, turned back, and looked at him. Then I flashed the brightest, most refreshing smile I could muster.
