Chapter 1 Acquiring a Game-Breaking Trait and Restarting (1)
There was no genre as faithful to hypnosis as erotic games.
This was the conclusion I reached after conquering countless erotic games.
In typical erotic games, there were always too many strategies and things to do. Dating sims could have thousands of branching paths.
And I was the type who never put down a game until I saw all the endings and collected all the elements. Games like that ended up being played with my pants on. It made the term “erotic game” meaningless.
But what about hypnosis games? Just a single ‘click’ and it was over. It might have been disqualified as a game, but as an erotic game, it was a pass. Ten out of ten. Full marks.
So, whenever I felt like playing an erotic game, I would always look for hypnosis games.
...One day, I stumbled upon an unnecessarily high-quality doujin game. And eventually, I got transported into it.
‘The combat system was suspiciously detailed... I fell for it!!!’
I could still clearly remember the absurdity I felt on the first day of my Transmigration.
There was this unnecessarily well-made hypnosis game that I delved into for almost 1,000 hours... To think it would lead to Transmigration. It was ridiculous to fall for such a typical web novel trope.
But that was that. This was this. Since I was Transmigrated, I decided to enjoy this world to the fullest.
‘Such beautiful women... Wow, I don’t know who Transmigrated me, but thank you!!’
As a player, I did all sorts of things with my hypnosis abilities.
“Yu-jin, how did you defeat that formidable enemy so easily?”
‘In the game, I must have defeated that guy a hundred times.’
I also fought monsters, vanquished villains.
“Kugh, kill me....”
“Ah, okay.”
‘In the game, I could hypnotize and humiliate, but... no matter how you look at it, 300 years old is a bit much. That’s just a chicken coop.’
-Swoosh.
Even the final boss, after much struggle, was finally vanquished. It was a happy ending.
However,
‘Now what? Is a god supposed to appear? In web novels, they usually give some sort of reward....’
“.......”
‘Guess not?’
Even though I had completed all the content of the game, the credits didn’t roll.
The game, and my Transmigration, didn’t end.
In the end, I couldn’t return to my original world or meet a god-like being. I was left in this world, no longer as a player, but as just another person.
...Together with the heroines I had conquered.
“Yu-jin? The fighting is all over now, right?”
“Huh? Ah, yes.”
“Then now....”
“We should have our wedding. My disciple♡”
“...What?”
I suddenly found myself a married man, but anyway. A peaceful life continued thereafter.
I was the number one S-rank hero, the savior of the world. I had immense wealth and honor, overwhelming abilities, and hypnosis. And by my side, wives who loved me.
It was a life like an endless curtain call.
“You’ve put on a bit of weight, haven’t you?”
“I’m an old man now. It’s that time of life.”
‘Breeding old man, indeed.’
In the peace, my body had gained some weight.
Just like the “breeding old men” often found in erotic games.
My actions were also just like those breeding old men. Literally, there wasn’t a day when I wasn’t busy.
In other words, fifteen years had passed since my Transmigration.
I had become a full-fledged “hypnotic breeding old man,” enjoying life to the fullest in a peaceful world.
‘But why was I Transmigrated...?
Oh well, maybe I got rewarded for living a good life.’
———Without even pondering why I was Transmigrated or why I was given such a powerful ability like hypnosis.
Perhaps the one who Transmigrated me didn’t like to see that.
One day, he suddenly punished me.
“Why is the sky so dark... huh?”
‘...Monsters?’
On the day I turned 35, bizarre monsters began pouring down from the sky.
They ravaged this world with their unreasonable strength.
-Clang!!
‘...My attacks aren’t working!? Why!?’
No matter how much mana I poured into my sword, it didn’t leave a scratch on the monsters.
The power I had accumulated as a joke didn’t reach them at all.
‘I will try my best. So you won’t cry this time.’
I made a resolution.
I didn’t know what entity was toying with me like this, but I would gladly play along.
For the wives who had shared joy and sorrow with me for fifteen years, who loved only me, and whom I loved.
...Even though my wives wouldn’t have any memories of being with me.
‘The cellphone is silent, after all.’
I had several phones for work, but I hadn’t changed my personal number. If they had regressed with me, they would have contacted me immediately.
The fact that they hadn’t meant...
I was the only one who regressed, who remembered those memories.
‘My goals have increased.’
I realized one more thing.
My goals had narrowed down to two: getting stronger to prepare for fifteen years later, and reuniting with my wives.
Though, the latter might be a bit harder than before the regression.
‘And I must never use hypnosis on my wives.’
Before the regression, when I still believed this world was just a game, I had used hypnosis to be with my wives.
I even used hypnosis to convince them of the harem.
Of course, I later confessed everything and regretted it deeply. My wives didn’t mind, even asking me to use it more...
But this time, I wanted to be with them proudly, without using hypnosis.
‘I need to become a much cooler guy than in the first round.’
Plans began to take shape in my mind.
Plans to quickly become stronger and to rekindle my relationships with them.
It didn’t take long to put my thoughts into action.
-Springing up.
‘Before meeting them, I need to finish this disgusting task first. If they knew, they’d be horrified.’
I headed towards the dormitory kitchen. The kitchen only had a few pairs of scissors and a coffee pot.
But that was enough for me now.
-Grasp.
“Phew....”
First, I separated the scissors into two blades.
“...I, Seo Eugene, will not feel any pain until the hypnosis is lifted.”
-Ding!
[Mental barrier judgment... successful. The target is ‘perfectly’ hypnotized.]
I temporarily turned off my sense of pain. There was no need to feel unnecessary pain.
Lastly, I lifted the scissors high...
———Stab.
-Ding!
