Surviving the Reverse Harem

109 – Homunculus (1)

Now I will live for myself!

Kwak Taek-joong, who worked like a mechanical part at the company, made that promise on the first day he got the hypnosis app.

I will not be an underdog anymore.

He vowed to be the one to dominate others, and he lived his life that way.

However, things did not go according to plan.

He lived a life of ruling the shadows through hypnosis applications for quite a long time, but eventually met a former user of hypnosis applications, lost everything, and died while preparing for revenge, and was resurrected as a homunculus.

Reborn as a homunculus, Kwak Taek-jung first denied reality, then tried to run away.

Because he thought he resurrected himself to torture himself for trying to destroy the earth.

However, when everyone around him praised him as a hero, Kwak Taek-jung was bewildered.

This body, which was created with the support of the best wizards on earth and the national level, was so perfect that it did not feel uncomfortable to move or feel the senses.

Even though it was a made body, it was rather better than the body I originally had.

Right after I came to my senses, many people came to greet me.

Beginning with a former user of a hypnosis app who drove himself to death.

From the hero who killed the demon king alone, to the most influential British princess Irelle on Earth, from the King of England to the presidents of each country.

Representatives of countries that even he, who ruled the shadowy world in his previous life, had never met came pouring in.

The amount of money received from various sponsorships and the mansion in the palace where he was living were opulent to anyone’s eyes.

At this point, Kwak Taek-jung had no choice but to think.

“What is it? Did I really save the world?”

————————————————————————- ————————————————– ——–

Kim was happy.

Because everything went well.

Robert, who was worried, returned to Earth and married Irelle, and a precious life was also born between them.

After the demon king, who was stalking the earth, was killed by Robert’s brother, the invasion of demon tribes on earth disappeared.

According to the Holy Sword, since there is no way to recreate a passage of this size in the demon realm, he said he would not dare to invade as long as Robert-hyung was there.

Although they haven’t completely crossed over to Earth yet, they can also meet the succubus queen in their dreams.

Even though things turned out better than I had dreamed of.

‘…… My heart feels empty.’

She was happy but empty.

Probably because I realized it.

The will of a man who fought against the demon world alone.

The fact that he interfered with those who fought in solitude, bearing the sorrow, agony, and pain alone.

Kim has great regrets because she owes him a lot.

She poured out her heart to Robert over a drink and received an unexpected reply.

“The soul of the hypnosis app user is probably still with me…”

“Yes??”

“I’m protecting the souls killed by the demons on Earth and slowly sending them to the heavens. Hold on…”

After Robert-hyung had a quiet conversation with the Holy Sword, he took out a soft mass of light.

“This soul must be the one you’re looking for. But it’s a lot thicker than I thought.”

“Can you tell by looking at the soul?”

“Uh. Usually the souls of heroes who saved the world shine brightly.”

After hearing that, Kim looked at the muddy, muddy soul.

“Oops… You suffered so much that your soul was damaged.”

“Is that so…?”

Robert tilted his head at Kim’s answer.

This is because the spirit of the female knight, who was captured by the demons and tortured for a long time, was also tainted.

No matter how you look at it, this soul was just like the soul of a fallen person.

There was something strange about her, but she thought that her soul might change because the person who summoned her had gone through an ordeal that was hard to imagine.

It is because the miracle that the user of the hypnosis application caused was so great that it made me think that way.

“If Robert-hyung’s soul is still there, she can make a new body and bring her back to life.”

“That’s right.”

“Can I bring you back to life?”

Originally, I would have refused even if it was Kim’s request.

Because she herself was also a knight of the goddess, she couldn’t allow the soul to go against the law.

But.

-Robert Allow me.

The Holy Sword allowed it.

In this place, even the gaze of the goddess is feeble.

Since she is a great benefactor of herself and the Holy Sword, I thought that she would be fine at least once.

And, in fact, Robert was also curious.

What kind of person could this be?

“Yes. Let’s resurrect it.”

“Thank you hyung. Then I’ll wake up first!”

Kim was delighted and she went outside.

Kim, who was strangely sullen, was happy to see her so happy.

-Robert. But is the user of the hypnosis app human?

-I thought it might be an angel banished from heaven.

“Or you could be a regressor like Heshkel or me.”

– Oh! It could be.

Robert was lost in thought as the holy sword babbled his guesses eagerly.

In fact, Robert is half convinced that users of hypnosis apps are regressors.

‘It’s close to impossible to avoid the Pandemonium’s gaze and prepare a magic circle of that size.’

Even summoning himself when the demon king appears.

It really didn’t make sense.

This is a fact that I found out through countless fights with demon lords.

It is said that there are only a few people, including himself, who can fight and defeat a high-ranking demon king alone in all dimensions.

What is the probability that a strong person like you will be summoned through the summoning circle?

And even the probability that the demon lord won’t interfere while summoning a dimension this huge.

I couldn’t even guess how many lives I had to fail and get back up and prepare for.

Probably more regresses than Orc Heshkel, who regressed 999 times.

“For someone who has created a miracle like this, it’s worth going against the law.”

————————————————————————- ————————————————– ———-

I thought it was fortunate that I had confided my worries to Robert.

If he had passed on without saying anything, he would have only regrets about this decision at the end of his life.

The process of creating a homunculus for users of the hypnosis application went smoothly.

Robert and Irelle also fully helped, saying that they were like their benefactors.

Every country generously provided resources.

“As expected… You did a good job making the sacrifice of a hypnosis app user into a movie.”

Kim thought it was necessary for people to know about the sacrifice of such a hero, so Kim tried to make this fact known.

She wrote the book after receiving advice from writers at the pinnacle of each field.

She also asked famous directors to film and dramatize it, and it turned out to be a hit.

After that, various parodies began to be made into novels, and the contents were also made into cartoons.

Because the material was so good, it was a hit every time it came out.

After that, 15 years have passed since I started making homunculus.

Finally, the best homunculus was created.

“I can’t remember. I’m sorry.”

Every time an unfavorable question came up, Kwak Taek-jung repeated only these words like a parrot.

Then, the other person said that it was okay and apologized for asking such a question.

After the conversation was over and the other person left, Kwak Taek-jung lay down on the bed with a serious expression on his face.

“I’m anxious.”

Kwak Taek-jung has been disturbed lately.

Because of misunderstanding, they are receiving too much favor.

He couldn’t sleep well because he was worried about what would happen if they were found out that he was actually trying to destroy the world, not save it.

Even though I had a hard time falling asleep, I always woke up screaming from nightmares.

The nightmare repertoire has always been the same.

Nightmares always start with the appearance of the demon they made a contract with.

The devil told people that Kwak Taecjung tried to destroy the world.

After hearing the story, the people who had expressed their unending favor towards him realized the truth and all despised him.

And the end of the dream ended when he was killed by the sword of Robert, who was enraged.

At first, I was afraid to die from an enraged Robert.

However, as he received more and more people’s love and attention, he was more afraid of seeing people disappointing and contempt for him than dying from the hero Robert.

“After…”

Kwak Taek-jung sighed with a distraught expression.
