Reader’S Regeneration Life [EN]: Chapter 292

Stepping Forward

“…I almost died.”

Feeling relieved to be alive, Sion sat in a corner of the garden and sighed.

Starting from late yesterday afternoon until dawn, he felt like his mind had gone blank from how much he had been through.

Since they had fairly decided the order by drawing lots, there would be no complaints. Surprisingly, Lucia was the first to pounce on Sion.

‘I’m the first!

Ohoho!’

She warned that she felt sorry for the next person, but she would start properly from the beginning. As if determined, she tripped Sion, opening the gates for the women’s great counterattack.

Lucia, who seemed to be diligently training in martial arts these days, had become much more toned and voluptuous than before. Her preemptive strike was quite formidable.

‘M, Master!’

Next was Rishiki. She ditched her usual knight’s uniform and wore a maid outfit she had somehow obtained, giving Sion’s heart an unpleasant shock while he was off guard.

When she called him Master while wearing her knight’s uniform, it felt like she was addressing a loyal subject. But with that outfit, calling him Master, Master, made the genre suddenly feel strange.

‘It’s my turn, Sion!’

After Rishiki came Trisha.

If Rishiki tried to reverse the atmosphere with a maid outfit, Trisha was ruthless from the start.

She charged into the room completely naked from the moment she entered.

‘Crazy!’ Sion shouted, asking for some time to rest, but Trisha said that today was a day when Sion had no choice and climbed on top of him.

As if proving her intention to exhaust Sion, Trisha even faintly summoned her stigma [a unique, often magical, power or mark], burning everything she had while moaning!

Thanks to Lucia and Rishiki, Sion had to have his protein extracted again without any rest.

‘No, it’s fine, but let’s rest a little…!’

It wasn’t just about physical strength. His ‘thing’ wasn’t a faucet that produced endlessly. If he used it a lot, shouldn’t he be given some time to gather and replenish?

‘Nyaong!

The Tteokkeolruk [onomatopoeia for clinging or sticking] is here, nyaong!’

It was Lia, who now used the word ‘Tteokkeolruk’ like a second name.

She came wearing her usual tight leather clothes, but she made a point of not wearing underwear inside. Crucially, she even showed thorough preparation by cutting holes in the exact spots of her nipples and groin, successfully bringing another fresh shock to Sion.

‘Haaah!’

Attacking his nipples and crevices through the slightly torn gaps, Sion had to admit that this sly cat was quite clever.

He wondered if these women were planning to extract everything from him today as he welcomed the last guest.

‘I’m frustrated.

I thought I could at least get halfway through.’

‘…Zan.

That outfit…’

‘Why, what’s wrong?

I heard this is what royal aristocrats wear as pajamas.’

Zan, who always wore a fur-lined northern coat and comfortable clothes underneath.

Therefore, Sion had to grab his fluttering heart again, as he was not yet over the shock of Zan’s sudden appearance in a semi-transparent dress-like pajama.

‘Damn it… how many times is my heart going to be strained…’

Of course, unlike his strained heart, his ‘thing’ inconsiderately perked up again.

Thanks to that, Sion was able to see once again how voluptuous Zan’s body was.

And he also learned that this waist-bending woman could be so cute.

‘Aaaah!

Hwaaaang!’

‘Heok!

Keok!’

‘Haaah… I, I finished it anyway…

My purpose… is achieved.’

Zan’s final blow was eventually allowed.

Bang!

Leaving his mark in the woman’s arms, Sion collapsed.

After that, all he remembered were Zan catching her breath and words like, ‘Did he finally collapse?’ ‘F, Finally, Master!’ ‘Hunting success, nyaaong!’

“And when I opened my eyes, I was alone in the room, passed out.”

Originally, all the women wanted not only to have relations but also to spend the day in Sion’s arms, but this time their goal was to knock Sion down, so they quickly completed their mission and left.

In this situation, he thought about taking revenge, but he was fortunate that the women were all kind enough to end it at this level.

More than anything, Sion was very touched that Zan and Trisha were getting along and doing something together.

‘Still, this is a bit too much.’

It was not a joke, he almost died.

It wasn’t because he was physically exhausted, but he vaguely understood what ‘death by pleasure’ was.

He automatically worried about what would have happened if Lilith had been there too.

‘…Damn it, now that I think about it, Lilith must have known everything from Helen’s incident to yesterday’s events.’

Still, Lilith would have tried to understand until Helen’s incident.

How could even one fish not disappear from a fish store with so many cats around?

The problem was yesterday. If she saw it without knowing the situation, it was a party-level event, so she would probably be grinding her teeth and rushing to Klausen like crazy.

Sion was sighing, wondering what to do when Lilith returned.

“Kkeueung…”

Suddenly, another groan was heard, and someone appeared in the garden.

Turning his head, Sion realized that an unexpected person was standing there. Surprisingly, it was Kim Yu-hyun.

“Kim Yu-hyun?”

“Ah, Young Master Sion.”

“What is it?

I’m one thing, but why do you look so tired?”

At Sion’s question, Kim Yu-hyun reflexively opened his mouth, then sighed and closed it.

He looked like a man with an unspeakable secret.

‘What’s wrong with him?’

Sion stared at Kim Yu-hyun for a moment, then gestured for him to come and sit next to him.

Kim Yu-hyun silently moved and sat opposite Sion.

“…”

“…”

He didn’t remember him looking so tired even when fighting Ekaterina.

To exhaust that monstrous protagonist, at least the top-tier celestials would have to swarm him, or a bunch of Seven Wings would have to attack.

Sion carefully examined Kim Yu-hyun’s appearance for a moment.

‘He doesn’t seem physically exhausted.’

No matter what else, his body alone was a cheat code in itself.

There were parts that could be called flaws in his personality, but his physical abilities were so good that there was nothing to call a flaw.

Of course, he wouldn’t be like that because his body was tired, so what could be the problem?

Then Sion remembered what Zan had said yesterday.

Kim Yu-hyun is being taken care of by my sister, or something like that. Remembering that, Sion inwardly exclaimed ‘Oho?’ and looked at Kim Yu-hyun with playful eyes.

‘Of course, he’s not the type to talk first.’

The way to open that protagonist’s mouth is simple.

If this side opens the conversation first, he will definitely talk about his story, swept away by the atmosphere.

“I almost died yesterday.”

“Yes?”

Kim Yu-hyun was naturally surprised to hear that he almost died out of nowhere.

It wasn’t a battlefield, and why would such a thing be said in Klausen, which could be said to be Sion’s home? Kim Yu-hyun could only blink at the other person’s next words.

“The women were attacking so fiercely.

I feel like my soul has been털린 [robbed/plundered] from having everything I had extracted.”

“Ah…”

“Honestly, it’s good, but there has to be a limit.

I’m not kidding, I really almost died.

Well, it’s a relief that the way of dying wasn’t too bad.”

“Is that so?”

Kim Yu-hyun said that and touched his chin as if contemplating something for a moment.

Then, as if he had suddenly made up his mind, he bit his lip tightly and slowly opened his mouth.

“Um, Young Master Sion.

I, I want to ask you something.”

“Why do you need permission for that?”

“Well, the question might be a bit strange.”

“What is it?

I’ll listen and judge.”

“…It’s about relationships with women.

Um, I want to ask about both the emotional exchange and the physical exchange.”

As expected, Kim Yu-hyun had swallowed the bait that Sion had thrown.

Sion was talking about his stories with the women without hesitation, so he seemed to have judged that there was no particular aversion to it and was asking what he wanted to ask.

“Did something happen with Eos?”

“That’s not it.

Just, just… last night.”

“Why?

Are you quite dissatisfied?”

“Absolutely not.”

Still, the protagonist had some pride as a man, so he immediately denied it.

Furthermore, his slightly stiff expression seemed to be saying that it was definitely not the kind of thing Sion was thinking.

“Eos suddenly became too aggressive.

How special was the letter that you wrote, Young Master?”

“It’s not that my letter is special, it’s that you’re special.

You idiot.”

“Huh?”

“Looking at it this way, you’re a cold-hearted guy, more ruthless than the northern warriors, but suddenly you write a love story in a letter and then get shy when you meet in person.

Eos must have felt a greater liking for that dualistic appearance.”

“Does it work that way?”

Then that’s how it will work.

Do you think a woman like Eos would be crazy enough to stick so close to a man she doesn’t like or care about and push you until you’re exhausted?

Sion muttered inwardly and stretched with a ‘kkeueung’.

“She’s really become your precious person now.

You have something you have to protect even if it costs you your life.

So, it means you have to fight even harder.”

“…I thought I wanted to stop living a life where I had to fight to protect something.

It seems that living like that as a human was difficult.”

“Everyone fights to protect something.

Every low person in the world, every high person, is like that.

It’s just a matter of whether they protect it or get it taken away.”

“…”

“That’s why I fight.

To protect my things, my people.

Other guys have to protect their own things.

If I worry about those things too, I and my people will get hurt.

Guilt?

That’s bullshit.

That’s an excuse that guys who have no power and no will to protect what they have been deprived of make up.”

Sion said that and closed his eyes for a moment, leaning back.

It was to show that Sion’s gaze was not directed at him in order to give Kim Yu-hyun time to think a little more and make a more definite decision.

“In that sense, I have to thank you.”

“Yes?”

“There were many times when I would have been in trouble if it weren’t for you.

If it weren’t for you, someone around me might have been hurt or killed.

Others call me a hero, but the real hero who saves that hero is you.

Kim Yu-hyun.”

“…Rather, I want to thank you, Young Master.”

To me?

Sion lowered his head slightly and looked at Kim Yu-hyun as if to say that.

Kim Yu-hyun smiled very slightly at Sion’s gaze and continued.

“If it weren’t for you, I would have just stood there blankly, replaying the mistakes of the past, and been swept away by the oncoming waves.

I might have had to watch my people disappear without a trace in that wave.”

“…”

“I know.

I know that in order to survive that wave, we need a ship, that we have to make every effort to build that ship, and that we can’t save everyone even if we launch the ship.

Some people there may be saintly figures who save people who have nothing to do with them, but I’m not.”

“Is it easy to become a saintly figure?”

“It’s not easy to become a saintly figure, but it’s not easy to be cold and bold for my people.

I couldn’t do that, so I couldn’t do anything in the end, but you did it, so you were able to do everything in the end.”

“…”

“Of course, you will continue to do so in the future.”

It was Kim Yu-hyun’s sincerity that he heard for the first time in a long time, or perhaps ever.

Sion, wondering what wind was blowing that the protagonist, who always made the heroines suffer, was being so honest, snorted as if it was nothing and opened his mouth.

“You don’t have to praise me like that, I’ll take care of you anyway, so don’t worry.”

“Thank you.

I’m glad you said that.”

Kim Yu-hyun, who doesn’t usually joke, was slowly being influenced by Sion, so he was able to joke to some extent.

“More than that, what happens now?”

“It’s the same.

Either take it away or protect it, one of the two.”

“…”

“Of course, there will be something quite dirty and ugly inside that ordinary people can’t even imagine.”

“How do you know that, Young Master?”

At Kim Yu-hyun’s slightly sharp question, Sion was silent for a moment before opening his mouth.

“A bad guy is good at reading the minds of other bad guys.”

―

“What should we do now?

If we lose Nudia like this, our plans will be in vain.”

“We can’t even work for the great beings anymore, even if we want to.”

“We have to do something, no matter what.

At this rate…”

The fairies, who were passionately discussing something, suddenly stood up from their seats.

Then, another fairy appeared behind them.

“Now that it’s come to this, there’s no other way.

We have no choice but to face it head-on.”

“Yes?

H, but…”

“If Nudia is divided, we’ll be the only ones who lose out in the end.

We have to somehow unite Nudia here and make them fight Hispania.

And to do that, we have to go on stage ourselves.”

The fairy sitting at the head of the table muttered, holding her bow firmly.

At the same time, green letters floated from the bow, emitting a humming resonance.
