"You… you're trying to lick my, my eyeball, aren't you…?"
"Ah. I got caught."
"You son of a bitch…"
"Am I a son of a bitch? A puppy?"
Seo Ui-woo pretended to bark.
Kwon Jae-jin had a sore throat.
'When on earth am I supposed to raise… that beast back into a proper human?'
Damn it. He can't help but swear.
Even knowing that Kwon Jae-jin wins in the end, the process is so dreadful that it's impossible to resist cursing. Suddenly, everything feels dark before my eyes.
"I dislike eyeballs and mucous membranes. Ugh, if you're going to be a jerk, at least act like one and lick my muzzle."
Jae-jin squeezed his eyes shut. Then he opened his lips slightly.
The mouth, clenching its molars to endure the pain, opened and a slightly red tongue filled with saliva was revealed. The neatly lined white teeth were also visible. Seo Ui-woo clicked his tongue as if he was disappointed, but did not refuse the food that was served.
"Okay, I like it."
As if he had been waiting, Seo Ui-woo placed his mouth on Kwon Jae-jin's and stuck to him.
He twisted his head so that he could completely close his mouth, thrusting his tongue deep and sucking him without any worries. Every time he changed the angle of his kiss, his jawline, which was slanted appropriately without any sharp edges, stood out clearly.
"Ugh, huk… … ah… … !"
"Ha, good, uh, good."
Their heated breaths clashed roughly and mingled.
Seo Ui-woo seemed determined not to give her any room to breathe.
The tongue that had dug into Kwon Jae-jin's mouth rubbed the weak mucous membrane here and there, and the weapon-like dick that had penetrated deep into his stomach struck the inner wall without mercy. It felt like all his flesh was going to burst. It felt like there was a bruise on his lower abdomen.
At the moment when he felt like his mind was about to fly away as he was violently attacked from above and below, Seo Ui-woo reached out and grabbed Jae-jin's neck. He whispered with a slurred speech, his tongue mingling.
"Oh, I'll take care of it."
Okay, I'll put you to sleep now.
Jae-jin was strangled violently as he encountered the same words he had heard before as if it were a deja vu. The blood flow to his brain was cut off and his vision gradually became blurry.
The thought of having to go through this horrible nightmare again made his back hurt. But it couldn't be helped.
"Huh, argh…! Ugh."
With a feeling of dizziness, all the strength left Kwon Jae-jin's body. The hand that had been desperately grabbing the sheet jerked and stopped.
After hesitating for a short time, or a long time, Jae-jin slowly raised his hand. He wrapped his arm around Seo Ui-woo's back and poked his fingers through his messy hair.
He angrily grabbed his sweat-soaked hair,
then, just for a moment, gently smoothed it down.
'Seo Ui-woo, you damned bastard…'
After doing all this, and yet, he remembers nothing…
'Truly, to the very end, you…'
***
When Kwon Jae-jin came to, the inside of his throat felt rough as if he had swallowed iron filings. His lips were torn again, and they tasted like blood.
"...ugh."
This cracked and distorted voice is coming from a human mouth.
His whole body is covered in wounds.
Kwon Jae-jin's muscles ached all over his body, his skin was covered in bruises, and blood-mixed semen was running down his thighs. And he had no idea what day it was or what time it was.
Even after passing out, Kwon Jae-jin was held captive for a long time. He regained consciousness several times, but Seo Ui-woo held him and his body was still shaking, and he had to strangle him repeatedly each time.
If the emergency summons order hadn't been given to Seo Ui-woo, he would probably still be trapped right now.
"Ugh…."
Jae-jin forced his weakened muscles to move. Although he was in a state where it was difficult to move even a single finger, he couldn't just lie still. He felt around the headboard with his hand and felt for a small, flat object.
Healing factor.
There is a bright blue potion inside a transparent case.
Jae-jin pulled it into his hand and twisted the cap open. There was a needle inside. He found a blue vein on his forearm, inserted the needle, and flicked the convex switch at the tip.
The drug mixed with his blood, and he immediately felt his self-healing powers rapidly increasing.
Gradually, the torn flesh begins to come back to life and the bruises begin to noticeably disappear.
By the way, this miraculous cure was completely unknown to the general public. The general public doesn't even know that healing factors exist. If they knew that something like this existed, they would all be crazy and try to get their hands on it.
'No, maybe it's just poor people like me who don't know.'
Even ordinary people might be using the money through the back door of the wealthy. Well, that wasn't a problem that Kwon Jae-jin needed to worry about right now.
After Jae-jin injected all the healing factors, he threw the case away and lay down on the bed until his body regained its senses. His clothes were dirty and torn, but he didn't have the energy to take them off.
He just stares up at the ceiling and blinks his eyes in confusion.
…..It's blue.
Judging from the blue sky outside the bulletproof glass, it seemed to be daytime.
The day he was kidnapped and forced to guide for the first time, Seo Ui-woo returned from a combat mission around sunset, so he had quite a bit of free time.
'Seo Ui-woo…..you son of a bitch.'
Thinking about that bastard made his chest burn again.
It felt both heavy, as if something were stuck inside, and annoyingly restless.
Kwon Jae-jin cursed Seo Ui-woo, with fury slowly boiling up inside him.
'Even beating him down wouldn't be enough… total lunatic, crazy bastard, complete scumbag…'
Returning to the past, having died, and even becoming Seo Ui-woo's guide for the second time — all of that was fine.
He considered it fortunate to have been given another chance.
In this second life, he believed he could achieve his goals more easily, choosing the optimal path without wasting time.
However,
in truth,
He honestly felt wronged.
The thought of his four years of struggle vanishing like bubbles made him feel so wronged that he was about to lose his mind.
'That bastard, he needs to have his ass torn to shreds once. Worthless piece of trash.'
Is this how it feels when a carefully built tower collapses?
Kwon Jae-jin's past four years.
All that time, filled with blood, sweat, and tears, had been completely reset.
After being suddenly kidnapped and imprisoned, enduring a horse's cock shoved up his ass while struggling to teach a beast that didn't even understand him, he persevered and survived, only to die a meaningless death. All his hard work had been in vain, and now he had to start over from the very beginning.
In such a situation, how could one possibly keep their head from spinning?
Even the most virtuous person would find it hard to hold back their frustration and anger if they were in Kwon Jae-jin's position.
Having to deal with Seo Ui-woo, an S-class Esper — a hardly human being — and having to teach him from scratch, starting with basic common sense, and then patiently build from there to tame him… It's enough to make Kwon's teeth grind with injustice.
What did Kwon Jae-jin ever do to deserve this? Why does he have to go through this all over again?
'Ha. I don't know.'
At that moment, all the strength drained from him.
'It's done. What's the point in dwelling on it now that I've already regressed?'
There's no one to sympathize with his sense of injustice, and lamenting wouldn't change the situation anyway.
'Instead of wasting time, I should just focus on training Seo Ui-woo.'
Jae-jin was lonely,
Completely alone.
The Seo Ui-woo who existed in his previous timeline was now gone. What stood before him was a Seo Ui-woo who had returned to the starting point.
He was no longer Jae-jin's Seo Ui-woo.
However, that didn't mean Seo Ui-woo could simply stop being Jae-jin's Seo Ui-woo.
Just as one wouldn't stop considering a parent their own even if Alzheimer's robbed them of the ability to remember their child, Seo Ui-woo forgetting Jae-jin didn't change the fact that he was still Seo Ui-woo.
Kwon Jae-jin had already once agreed to be with him.
Therefore, Seo Ui-woo was Jae-jin's love…
Lov… damned brat of a…
He was Jae-jin's lover.
Should I call him my ex-boyfriend, or my current boyfriend? That part is a bit confusing, but in any case, we haven't broken up yet, so Seo Ui-woo was still Kwon Jae-jin's person.
Lover. Partner. Boyfriend. Something precious, whatever you want to call it…
'It's not like Seo Ui-woo's crazy antics are anything new to me… and it's not like he's doing it out of malice either…'
That's why, even in this second life, Jae-jin planned to continue their relationship just as he had in the first.
It was certainly the most convenient way to secure Seo Ui-woo's cooperation, but more than that, Jae-jin just instinctively felt that Seo Ui-woo was meant to be his lover.
Kwon Jae-jin intended to tame Seo Ui-woo into a proper human being, avoid the disaster of the gate that would occur in four years, and then, despite all the resentment, live a decent life together. In time, he even planned to show Seo Ui-woo some affection, maybe find him cute, stop the fighting, and settle into a long, peaceful life together.
'Sure, having to go through this hell twice makes me furious, but it's fine… It's still better to face this as an experienced victim of kidnapping and confinement than as a clueless rookie, right?'
After all, the hard part is only temporary.
Once that moment passes, victory will be Kwon Jae-jin's.
