After Ten Millennia in Hell

Side Story Chapter 72 - Home Alone (2)

"Hmm, what a shame. If I had tagged along, I could've seen the king's reaction to me." Lilith softly sighed as she stared at Oh Kang-Woo, crying in disappointment. "If it were me, I would've surprised him with something even bolder."

She seductively licked her lips as she examined Seol-Ah and Yeon-Joo's outfits. They looked great but lacked exposure. Although covering skin had its charms, it needed to be exposed to an extent.

"Hehe. Go shopping with Darling and Yeon-Joo next time. I wanna see your outfit too, Lilith."

"Hoho. Understood, my king." Lilith nodded as she giggled. "That aside, did you not buy anything, Echidna?"

Unlike Cha Yeon-Joo and Han Seol-Ah, Echidna did not change into anything.

Echidna snorted with her hands on her waist and shouted, "I made a custom order! One for me, Seol-Ah, Lilith, and Yeon-Joo!"

"Oh? What did you order?"

"Hehe. I'll show you when it gets here! We can all wear them together and play with Kang-Woo!"

"Hm?" Lilith expressed concern. "You know what the king said. You can join us once you're older—"

"I'm not talking about mating!"

"Oh, is that so?" Lilith tilted her head in wonder with her eyes widened. She had naturally imagined something naughty since it involved playing while wearing certain outfits. "Then what are we going to play?"

"Hm hm! I'll tell you that once the clothes get here too! I'm sure Kang-Woo will love it!"

"Hmm~ I'm getting curious."

"Be patient!"

Lilith nodded and turned to Kang-Woo. "Alright then, my king. I should get going since I'd like to educate the Succubi. I apologize for being unable to be with you in the evening."

"Hm? You're leaving too, Lilith?" asked Echidna as she tilted her head with a finger on her lips.

"Yup. The king asked me to do something. Why don't you keep the king company for today, Echidna?"

"Mmm... I have to leave too."

"Oh? Do you have plans?"

"My comeback live is soon, so I have to practice!"

Lilith clapped her hands together and nodded. "Oh. Come to think of it, you mentioned you would be making a comeback soon."

"Huh?" Kang-Woo, who had been listening in depression, widened his eyes.

A crucial fact popped up in his head.

'Wait a second.'

Yeon-Joo and Seol-Ah wouldn't be home since they had business to take care of. On top of that, Lilith and Echidna were also gone.

'Wha... Could it be, I'm home alone today?'

Sparks of ecstasy flew throughout his body as if he had never been depressed.

'HELL YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!'

He was surging with pleasure.

'What in the world?!'

He had never once been home alone ever since he returned to Earth.

'I mean, I couldn't be happier when we're all together, but everyone needs time for themselves now and then!'

Kang-Woo had never spent time alone because Seol-Ah's love was far too strong.

"H-Hehehe," Kang-Woo laughed in delight.

He kept himself from cheering with all his might.

'I mean, I've never felt uncomfortable being with Darling.'

He could never feel uncomfortable being around a woman as kind and considerate as Seol-Ah. She kissed him every morning, made him meals, washed him, and let him touch her bountiful breasts anytime he liked.

The same went for Yeon-Joo and Lilith. If he were uncomfortable around such loving women, he might as well be dead.

'But it's not bad having just a day for myself!'

This was likely how a married man felt when his wife left to visit her parents. Although Kang-Woo's life was far better than the vast majority of married men, it did not change the fact that some alone time was precious to him.

"I guess it can't be helped. I'll be home alone," he said as he suppressed the rising corners of his mouth with all his might.

"B-By yourself?"

"My, that's a first, isn't it?"

"You're not gonna do weird shit just because you're home by yourself, are you?"

The three women expressed confusion due to the unprecedented situation.

Kang-Woo teared up as he sent them off, saying, "Man, I'm so sad. My tears won't stop from the thought of spending the night all by myself."

'I'm so hap— I mean, I'm so fucking sad!!!'

"I didn't expect you to be so sad... This won't do. I'll call my mother and say I'll visit another time," Seol-Ah remarked.

'Huh?'

"No, no, no, no. Darling, you haven't visited your mother in a long time. You need to visit her and buy her something delicious."

"But..."

"Don't worry! I'm not a child. I can stay home by myself, no problem!"

"I'm just worried... you'll be lonely."

"It's just one day! You have ab~~~~~~~~~~solutely nothing to worry about, so go ahead and spend the night at your mother's place! You'd better! Got it?"

'I'm sad as fuck but I'm doing this for you, Darling! You know that, right?'

"Haaa. If you say so, then I will," Seol-Ah replied.

"Kang-Woo, you son of a bitch. You're acting a little suspicious. You're not happy that we're all out of the house, are you?"

"Of course not! I can't believe you'd accuse me of such a thing!!!"

'Can't you see that my tears (of joy) aren't stopping?!'

"I feel like I'd die just from being apart from my beloved wives for even a day!! Ahhh!! Can there be torture as bad as this in the world?! But—!"

Kang-Woo slammed his foot into the ground.

"I think I should stay home by myself today! For me to realize how precious the time I spend with you all is!! For me to realize the unbelievable joy that comes with being with you all!!!"

"..."

"..."

The expressions of the four women were dazed by Kang-Woo's soulful speech.

"Yeah, well... Alright."

"Fufufu. I never realized how much you value your time with us. I love you, my king."

"Jeez... I mean, I also realized how precious your presence is only after you disappeared. Hehe. I'll spend the day being a good daughter."

Seol-Ah hugged Kang-Woo and kissed him, and so did Lilith and Yeon-Joo.

"Hm! Kang-Woo! Me too!"

"On the cheek for you, Echidna."

Kang-Woo kissed Echidna on the cheek. She pouted because she was the only one who wasn't kissed on the lips.

She then shouted energetically, "Right then, Kang-Woo! Complete my MapleStory dailies for me while I'm gone!"

"What's that?" Kang-Woo asked.

"It's a game I've been playing lately!"

"Why are you making me do it?"

"I'll see you all tomorrow."

"Okay~"

"This noona here is going out to make some dough, so watch over the house, damn freeloader."

"Fufu. I'll educate the Succubi well~"

"Hm! I'm gonna be out for a few days, so I'll let you know once my live concert date is decided!"

With that, the four women left.

"..."

Silence filled the house.

"Wow."

Kang-Woo couldn't remember if the house had ever been this quiet since he bought it. The place he had spent every day in felt unfamiliar for some reason.

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Kang-Woo cheered with his arms in the air.

As he expected, there was no response.

"Holy shit. This is fucking amazing." Kang-Woo snickered as he walked around the house as if he were lost. He then flopped on the couch and muttered, "But what do I do now?"

'Now that I'm alone for real, there's not much to do.'

Kang-Woo was never one to have hobbies; he did not particularly watch much TV or play games. Even if he went outside, he had nothing to do.

"Should I go see Si-Hun?"

He tried calling Kim Si-Hun since they had not eaten together for a while but Si-Hun was not answering.

"Shit, is he still working?" The matter he had heard about from Lilith seemed to have not ended yet. "Mm... Is there anything I can't usually do?"

Kang-Woo fell into thought as he scratched his head. He rolled on the couch as he thought about what he could be doing to spend the time. He would usually find such a thing boring but did not, likely because he was home alone.

"Oh." Kang-Woo sprang up after remembering something. "Hehe. This is naturally at the top of the list of things I can't usually do."

Kang-Woo smirked and flung away the clothes he was wearing one by one.

He relished in the freedom of being bare naked and yelled, "GAHAHAHAHA! EVERY DEMACIAN A KING!"

Kang-Woo put his arms up in the air like a Proletariat who started a revolution and raced throughout the house.

"FREEEEEEEEEDOM! ALWAYS WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINS!!"

His body was flooded with endorphins. He would normally be captured by his Darling and dragged into the bedroom if he were to do such a thing, but not today! There was no one to stop him!!!

"BWEHEHEHEHEHE!!!"

Kang-Woo burst into laughter like a madman but it was deathly quiet around him; there was no one to bother him. The feeling of committing a taboo spread throughout his body with an unbelievable sense of freedom.

"Ahhh," Kang-Woo groaned.

A frog in the well did not feel stifled because it had never even seen the outside world. It was unaware of the restrictions placed by the unknown. Kang-Woo realized that he had never tasted true freedom because he was restrained by the framework known as logic.

"I am..."

However, at this very moment, he realized what true freedom was. The frog in the well had sprouted wings.

"Flying Frog."

Kang-Woo jumped without a run-up, flipped in the air, and landed on the living room floor. He was well aware of how stupid he was acting.

"I'm alone, so who cares?"

He was not causing anyone trouble so there was no problem with acting like a dumbass in his own home.

'Yeah, I'm sure everyone has done something like this when they were alone. They've just never said it.'

Kang-Woo was sure of it. He severed the last string attached to his sense of reason and rolled across the living room.

"Alright! I think it's time for a song!"

He turned on the giant speaker installed in the corner of the living room and blasted music that Echidna downloaded. The thunderous music shook the living room.

"Bam! Dadadadadadada~!"

He thrusted his hips to the beat of the music and furiously shook his arm as if he were playing an air guitar.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

Kang-Woo enjoyed his time alone to the fullest like a free madman.
