EP.44: Realization as a Discarded Male
Shaaaaa
After sharing a passionate lovemaking session.
We were spending an intimate time washing each other.
Crash!
Suddenly, a dull noise was heard through the glass wall.
A sound of something breaking and tearing echoed throughout the hotel room.
Startled by the sudden noise, I turned off the shower.
When I went outside, Jang Do-cheol, who should have been tied up in the living room, was nowhere to be seen.
Broken chair and ropes were scattered on the floor.
A few drops of bright red blood were also splattered on top.
'... What's going on? Did he break the chair and escape?'
With a hint of uneasiness, I hurriedly headed towards the bedroom where the weapons were stored.
But Jang Do-cheol's voice was heard a step ahead.
The bedroom door creaked open and he appeared.
"Stop right there, you little dick."
The crossbow I had been carrying was in his hands.
Jang Do-cheol glared at me as if he would devour me.
However, the pink chastity belt dangling between his legs made his anger somewhat comical.
I couldn't help but let out a faint laugh.
"Pfft. What are you doing looking like that? At least put on some pants."
At my mockery, Jang Do-cheol's face turned demonic.
He aimed the crossbow more tightly and spoke threateningly.
"You son of a bitch. Stop acting so relaxed. It's my turn now. You'll get the same treatment. You fucking bastard."
"..."
"What? Surprised? Didn't think this would happen? Are you terrified at the thought of being on the receiving end?"
Well, I certainly let my guard down.
I never imagined Jang Do-cheol would be this vicious.
Thick drops of blood were dripping down his thighs.
He must have gotten injured while breaking the chair to escape.
I kept nodding as I looked at his wound.
It seemed I should tie him up more securely next time.
Seeing my expression, Jang Do-cheol sneered.
He pointed to an intact chair in the living room and ordered me.
"Go sit over there. Bring that bitch too."
But I didn't move an inch from my spot.
I'm sorry for him, but the situation where I get victimized won't happen.
After all, this is the world inside the app that I set up.
I could return to reality anytime if I willed it.
I met Jang Do-cheol's eyes with a relaxed smile.
Though I regretted the points spent on the education ticket, it seemed this education session should end here.
His eyes were gleaming with murderous revenge.
"Can't you hear me? Want me to put an arrow in your ear? Hurry up and bring that bitch to sit over there!"
I shook my head at his shout.
Then I recited the command in my mind without hesitation.
'End education. Let me out of here.'
Simultaneously, all the objects around started to crumble.
Surprised by the sudden change, Jang Do-cheol fired the crossbow.
But even that arrow melted into the air like paint.
For a brief moment, darkness fell.
The apocalyptic world where zombies roamed disappeared without a trace into the darkness.
And beyond, the bright light of reality shone.
Soon after.
A familiar ceiling greeted me.
'Phew. I came back properly.'
Though this was my third experience, I still couldn't get used to it.
I roughly rubbed my face dry and gathered my hazy thoughts.
[Congratulations.]
[You have successfully completed the education.]
[The score for this education is '68' points.]
[This converts to '680' Education Points (EP) awarded.]
[Also, 'Mind Link' is applied to the parent who received 1 education session.]
[You can observe the parent's change in mindset by consuming a certain amount of education points.]
['Mind Link' operates by the user's command.]
This time too, Mind Link was activated along with the education reward.
I immediately thought of Jang Do-cheol in my mind.
Actually, I was more curious if I could connect with him than with Ryu Ji-hye.
Fortunately, Jang Do-cheol's image appeared on the screen and I began to hear his inner thoughts.
<... What? It was a dream? It was all just a dream?>
He touched his forehead with a very confused face.
He looked around several times and checked various parts of the room.
He even repeatedly checked if the chastity device was still on his genitals.
Finally, as if reaching a conclusion, he collapsed onto the living room sofa.
<... It was a dream. Haha. Fuck.>
He chuckled like that for a while, then suddenly picked up his phone.
He searched through KakaoTalk and looked at Ryu Ji-hye's profile picture.
A photo shoot picture of her in golf wear was set as the main image.
A picture of her with her son Jang Min-gyu was set as the background.
Seeing this, Jang Do-cheol let out a sigh of relief for some reason.
Even though he knew it was a dream, was his uneasiness not going away?
He only calmed down after checking her SNS and YouTube channel.
That's how big of an impact I had given him.
He took out an expensive cigarette placed on the table and immediately put it in his mouth.
After lighting it and taking a big puff, he picked up his phone again.
This time, he dialed Park Se-rin's number.
Soon, a languid voice was heard through the phone.
What is it? Calling so suddenly in the middle of the night. Did something happen?
Ah, no. Nothing much. Just checking if you're doing well.
Pfft. What's that about. You called because you wanted to hear my voice?
Haha. Am I busted?
Geez. You're so naughty. We're meeting this weekend anyway. Aren't you being too impatient?
Ahem. I can't help it, I'm excited. Oh right, Se-rin. Can we meet right now? Oppa is feeling a bit lonely.
Huh? Now? I was about to go to sleep.
Please. Oppa is begging you like this.
Sigh. Oppa. Even so, meeting at 3 AM is a bit...
Really can't do it? Oppa might give our Se-rin a gift next time.
... Really?
Of course. Our 1 year anniversary is coming up soon. I was thinking of buying you a bag.
Aww. What's this. Now I can't refuse. Okay. I'll wash up and go to oppa's place.
Alright. Sorry for calling you out so late. I'll make it up to you by showering you with love.
Mm. I'll call you when I'm on my way.
As the call ended with a click, Jang Do-cheol's expression turned fierce.
He frowned deeply while looking at his phone.
He irritably stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray and stared blankly at the living room ceiling.
Then he clenched his fist tightly, expressing an inexplicable anger.
'What? Were Jang Do-cheol and I acquainted?'
I thought I knew him but he didn't know me.
Unexpectedly, it seems he visited the kindergarten a few times before the divorce.
But even if he came looking for me directly, I wasn't particularly afraid.
There was no physical evidence since it was all in a dream.
Plus, I had Han-gyeoul as a strong backer.
A backer that the third son of a steel company couldn't dare challenge.
While Jang Do-cheol was lost in deep thought,
I switched the Mind Link to Ryu Ji-hye this time.
She too was lying on the bed with a troubled expression.
Unlike Jang Do-cheol, her expression was tinged with deep regret.
<... If only that had been reality.>
She hugged her legs with a gloomy look.
Her expression was so pitiful that I wanted to go hug her right away.
The sweet fantasy she tasted in her dream seemed to have made her even more miserable.
<... I want to go back into the dream.>
She hugged herself and trembled with loneliness.
A 29-year-old woman abandoned by her husband, raising a child alone.
She was desperately yearning for someone to support her.
And the name engraved in that empty space was becoming me, Kang Joo-hyuk.
She hugged her pillow tightly and repeated my name.
Her eyes were clearly filled with faint longing and tender emotions.
<... I miss you, Master.>
Her expression turned gloomy.
Meanwhile.
In Jang Do-cheol's bedroom.
An unfunny situation was unfolding there.
Jang Do-cheol, who had called Park Se-rin out late at night, even promising her a bag.
He was rubbing his genitals with a bewildered look, holding a condom in his hand.
But no matter how much he touched it, it wouldn't get erect like usual.
It just remained limp, unable to even put the condom on.
This didn't change even when Park Se-rin touched it.
A streak of disappointment flashed across her aloof eyes.
Facing this, Jang Do-cheol broke out in a cold sweat.
Something was going terribly wrong.
