I Lost My Memory and Had Too Many S-Class Girlfriends

224 – The World After the Epilogue (Part 1)

The whole world was turned upside down.

Because an unprecedented achievement that no one in human history has ever achieved has been achieved.

The tower, inhabited by countless monsters, was no different from a taboo outside of humanity.

Only a very few were able to climb the tower, and it was both an insurmountable punishment for humanity and a treasure of the gods.

The greatest heroes of all time climbed the tower, blinded by glory and wealth, but most of them turned into mere pieces of meat, rolling around on the dirty ground.

Every time you conquer a new tier.

Every time we face a new ordeal.

Every time you face a new monster.

An uncountable number of hunters lost their lives.

Fortunately, the damage was not as great as expected because the world’s strongest group, the Seongcheon Sect, took the lead in attacking the tower. If the Seongcheon Sect had not existed, many more people would have died than now.

The Seongcheon Church conquered dozens of sects without much damage.

When the door to the summit opened this time, most people said:

It was obvious that the one who would conquer the tower would be the Seongcheon Church.

The Seongcheon Church is truly worthy of being the conqueror of the tower.

But what is this?

When I opened the lid, I saw that it was not the Seongcheon Church that conquered the tower, but a clan from a very small country in eastern Asia.

The world’s first South Korean hunter to conquer the tower!

Because of this proposition, the domestic media was in full swing.

All week long, I’ve been pouring out stories related to conquering the tower.

The nationalistic community is on the verge of exploding.

Looking back, it was quite possible.

World-renowned clans and groups challenged the top of the tower, but the country’s representative clans joined forces to achieve the feat of conquering the tower.

Since conquering the tower was the greatest dream of mankind, it was inevitable that people all over the world would become interested in it.

People showed interest in the hunters who conquered the tower.

The South Korean government even designated the day the tower was conquered as a national holiday.

‘… … Haa. There really have been all sorts of things.’

I looked up at the clear sky and took a moment to recall the events that had happened so far.

Several years after conquering the tower.

Jihyun, who was active as a hunter, announced her temporary retirement.

People reacted with surprise to the fact that he was retiring at such a young age.

As people’s curiosity grew, Jihyun’s remarks made people’s eyes widen.

– I will quit my hunting activities and focus on my family.

This is a real bombshell!

What does it mean for an unmarried woman to be faithful to her family?

The implications of this statement were so blatant that I couldn’t help but scratch my temples in embarrassment.

And of course, it was only natural that people’s attention would be drawn to me.

Because of that, I really suffered for a while.

Phew. It’s only now that I’m saying this, but it was really hard.

Even without that, reporters are constantly asking questions about my private life.

Now I’m afraid to go outside.

When I’m with another woman, dozens of articles come up on the internet. There are so many articles with really strange titles. Like, ‘Top Conqueror Han Seo-jun and his entertainment life’ or ‘How far does that man’s reach go?’

No, well, yeah.

That’s not wrong.

Because I don’t have just one or two lovers.

Also, they don’t hide the fact that they are in a relationship, so from my perspective, it’s a bit difficult and embarrassing.

It’s almost like he’s become the public enemy of South Korean men.

‘It seems like Seo-yoon is quite busy these days.’

Seo Yoon-i was currently running one of the affiliates of Ilseong Group.

Originally, Seo Yoon-i was unable to take charge of an affiliate due to her severe social phobia, but after Edelin took away her ability, she was able to interact with others like a normal person.

Within the Ilseong Group, there was admiration, saying that it was a truly amazing change, and Seo-yoon’s family expressed their sincere gratitude to me.

It seems that he was very happy about Seo-yoon’s change because he knew well that she had suffered from telepathy all her life.

It seems like he half thinks of me as a benefactor… … .

Could that be why the chairman of Ilseong Group responded positively to my meeting with Seo Yoon?

If it were me, I wouldn’t have readily given my precious daughter to a womanizer, no matter how much of a benefactor she was.

Oh, of course, my younger sister Choi Yeon-ah, who thought terribly of Seo-yoon, just looked at me with a grumpy expression.

Before conquering the top, Choi Yeon-ah had continuously opposed me and Seo Yoon-i, saying that we were not on the same level. However, not only had I conquered the top, but I had also inherited and was running the clan that Ji Hyun-i had created, so I was no longer in a position to be inferior to Seo Yoon-i.

So, Choi Yeon-ah also couldn’t openly complain.

‘I wonder what Hwaryeon is doing now.’

Hwaryeon is also quite busy.

That’s because Hwa-ryeon officially inherited the Heuksando Group.

Hwa-ryeon, who had proudly proven his qualifications as the chairman of a group that controlled numerous subsidiaries, was spending his days busier with company work than with his work as a hunter.

Hwa-ryeon, who loved napping throughout her school days, always had dark circles under her eyes, which was a bit sad to see.

Every time that happened, Isul would come and ask, “Hwaryeon is very busy these days. Could you please cheer her up a little?”

But, if it’s a little surprising, then maybe it’s surprising?

I thought Hwa-ryeon would be somewhat free-spirited, leaving company affairs to her assistant or Isul, but she was actually quite enthusiastic about taking care of internal affairs.

Despite the strong support of the maternal side’s factions, there was no way to slack off on things.

I’m saying that the kid is quite responsible.

Hwaryeon’s father is also secretly worried.

Oh, I thought of Hwa-ryeon because of her father. Former Chairman Kang Cheol-hwan was strangely hospitable when we met. He even laughed heartily and patted me on the back.

Kang Cheol-hwan said, “Any man should date at least three or four women.” and “Isn’t this all heroic lust? Mr. Han?”

The man showed a fairly tolerant attitude toward women.

… … Yeah, well, I have five wives myself.

It’s not like that, is it?

Hmm.

by the way.

Hwa-ryeon secretly feels burdened by her younger sister.

No, it’s not that Seo-yoon hates me like her younger sister.

Rather, it feels strange because it looks so lively.

She always covers her lips elegantly and chuckles, but her personality is strangely similar to Edeline’s, which makes me even more reluctant.

In the past, he gave up his position as successor and made a deal with Hwa-ryeon to get a promise to separate the affiliates, and he managed them to prevent his brothers and sisters from doing anything foolish… … Although he did not become the chairman, he holds a significant stake in Heuksando Group.

Should I say that he is somewhat solid as the number two?

The Gang Yoo-jeong faction is so large that Hwa-ryeon cannot ignore it.

It’s quiet right now, but it’ll be quite annoying later on when Kang Yu-jeong starts having silly thoughts.

Well, but considering Kang Yoo-jung’s personality, she’s the type of person who doesn’t necessarily get into fights that she’ll lose, so if Hwa-ryeon’s position as president is solid, she won’t do anything useless.

Above all, Kang Yu-jeong doesn’t hate Hwa-ryeon.

Kang Yu-jeong’s subtle teasing of Hwa-ryeon is purely a sign of affection.

According to her, ‘Isn’t it fun when you touch them lightly and they suddenly rush in?’

I kind of agree with that.

I feel a little bad saying this, but there’s a subtle teasing flavor to it, Hwaryeon.

Anyway, Hwa-ryeon and Kang Yu-jeong maintain a not-bad(?) sister relationship.

The fact that the relationship between the best and largest factions of the Heuksando Group is positive is a good sign in many ways, but apart from that, it is quite troublesome because Kang Yu-jeong is strangely showing me favor.

Should I say that he is secretly trying to show off while pretending it isn’t happening?

Every time I visited Hwa-ryeon’s company, she would sneak up on me and secretly wag her tail. It was so exquisite that I felt like I would be the only weird one if I said anything.

He always acts cheerfully, saying, “Brother-in-law, brother-in-law,” but should I say that it’s a secretive expression or should I say it’s a subtle behavior that Hwa-ryeon secretly shows?

Kang Yu-jeong This woman has a really difficult personality.

I wish I could use my telepathy to read minds, but it’s a shame that I can no longer recharge my telepathy.

I think he’s trying to seduce me to see how Hwa-ryeon will react…

I wonder if the joke is too mischievous.

‘But Seo-yoon and Hwa-ryeon are getting along well with their families, but Ye-rin… … hmm.’

After much struggle, Yerin becomes the head of the Seong family.

Although she was supported by Sung Baek-hyun, she had many shortcomings compared to the factions of other brothers and sisters. The elders also seemed to not like Ye-rin very much.

But after conquering the tower.

With the fame of being the world’s first tower conqueror, and the support of Ji-hyeon, Seo-yoon, Hwa-ryeon, and others, he made rapid progress and suddenly rose to become the head of the Seong family.

As a result, there was virtually no one within the Seong clan who could dare to go against Yerin.

It seems like she doesn’t get along well with her brothers and sisters, but considering Yerin’s background and the way she’s been treated so far, it would be strange for them to become close.

Yerin also didn’t seem to have any intention of becoming friends.

Well, even though I’m having a feud with my family, the Sung clan is doing well regardless.

Under the guise of the swordsmanship of the clan master who conquered the tower, the Holy Sword Sword is causing a syndrome all over the world, and is making more and more money as the days go by.

Maybe that’s why the elders also seem to be looking at Yerin positively.

With the connections of the successors of the representative clan, the fame of conquering the tower, and the huge income, many of the Sung Clan leaders are looking back at Yerin.

“It seems like everyone is busy… … but the world has become peaceful enough that I don’t have to do hunter work.”

I quietly poured myself a drink in front of the cemetery and muttered to myself.

The world was currently enjoying a rather peaceful time. It was a time of peace, you could say. People no longer trembled in fear of monsters.

Because no more monsters will burst out of the tower.

Once the tower was conquered, the crack phenomenon completely disappeared.

The hands of the Clock of Destruction, which had always spewed out catastrophic monsters, have also stopped.

Thanks to this, there is no longer a need to conquer new layers within a certain time frame. Humanity no longer has to forcefully conquer the tower. The need to send in numerous hunters to prevent the appearance of a catastrophic monster has disappeared forever.

“Originally, I was going to use the Holy Grail to completely destroy the tower… … .”

For a world where the monsters we originally dreamed of have completely disappeared.

He tried to completely eliminate the existence of monsters in this world.

But after thinking about it carefully, I soon gave up.

Because of the existence of those with abilities.

‘In a world without monsters, the existence of people with abilities would be a threat.’

The reason humanity was able to unite as one was the third enemy.

It’s all thanks to the monster that could be called the public enemy.

But if monsters disappear, what choice will humanity make?

There is no need to think about it in detail.

It will probably lead to an endless civil war.

‘Now that the public enemy has disappeared, those with powers will no longer be strong allies to the general public.’

Crimes committed by those with abilities will increase, and the number of laws to regulate them will also increase.

Accordingly, some capable people will strongly oppose this, and in some cases, it will escalate into a big fight.

Ordinary people will think of those with abilities as monsters, and the conflict will only get worse as time goes by.

In a world without monsters, power users are no different from living, breathing biological weapons, so there is a high possibility that they will be used in various conflicts.

It really wasn’t a good world for me at all.

It’s a sad story, but humanity needs monsters.

I wouldn’t say it was a necessary evil, but for now, having the monster allowed me to find peace.

Of course, even if the monsters disappear, there may be a transitional period where stability can be restored, but it’s dizzying to think about the people who will die during that transitional period.

‘As long as the top exists, the need for those with abilities will continue to grow.’

The tower is no different from a treasure trove, as people say.

There are countless resources, treasures, mysteries, and more hidden within.

Only trained abilities can explore the tower.

Because there is a tower and because there are monsters, those with abilities can be loved.

‘Now that there are no more monsters emerging from the tower, no one will try to attack it by force.’

Now, it has become a world where one must risk one’s life and challenge the tower for one’s livelihood and greed as a Hunter.

There was no need to forcefully conquer the tower for the sake of humanity and the people like in the past.

Like my parents.

‘Once I conquered the tower, there were no more monsters popping out without me having to make a wish. Thanks to that, I was able to save the Holy Grail, which was nice.’

The Holy Grail, an omnipotent weapon that grants any wish.

I currently hold the Holy Grail without making a wish.

It is being saved as insurance to resolve any future problems. If a sudden swarm of monsters were to pour down from the tower, it would be difficult to stop them without the Holy Grail.

‘Originally, I was going to revive my parents through the Holy Grail… … Well, I guess it would be a nuisance to revive them now, since they are already living happily in heaven.’

If you think about it, it might be a huge mistake to bring my parents back to life because of my foolish greed.

“Isn’t that so?”

I poured some alcohol into the bottle and placed it back down in front of the graveyard.

I don’t usually like soju that much, but I thought it would be okay today.

“I just stopped by on the way. What do you think? Is it better to live there than here?”

He snickered and gulped down the soju.

It tastes really bitter.

It’s really bitter… … .

“I can’t forgive you.”

As if out of nowhere.

A familiar voice rang out from behind me.

It was the voice of a girl filled with resentment and resentment.

“I can never forgive you, Han Seo-jun.”

I slowly turned my head and looked behind me. A girl with green hair was staring at me with sharp eyes.

“… … You dare do something like that to Edeline and then laugh at yourself? Don’t make me laugh.”

It was Charlotte.

Adelin’s loyal confidant and the 3rd ranked power user.

Even for me, she couldn’t help but be a very burdensome opponent. If Charlotte were to run wild here, there was a very high chance that the cemetery would be damaged.

“I will never forgive you for that.”

“shallot.”

“I will avenge Adeline.”

“shallot.”

“So, Han Seo-jun, you… … .”

“shallot!”

“Huh?!”

at that time.

Someone hit a bean and a nut on Charlotte’s head.

“… … It hurts.”

“I said I was sick, Charlotte. What on earth are you doing in front of the cemetery?”

“… … No, I’m doing it for you.”

“Please stay still for my sake, Charlotte.”

“……too bad.”

“Is that too much? Oh, I’m sorry, Seojun. My child caused trouble.”

Behind Charlotte’s back.

Edelin was looking at me with a troubled expression.
