I once mentioned that I had two friends in total.

One was Lee Taemin, who fell into gambling addiction following his denial of reality after his family’s downfall.

He was the freeloader son of Seong Yura, who was once a middle-class madam but now wears a collar with my name tag on it, having become a housekeeper.

My other friend, on the other hand, is in the exact opposite situation.

He’s a *chaebol* like me, but a far worse degenerate—an only child whom his family covers for no matter what insane things he does.

Ahn Donggyu, heir to Cheongsong Holdings, the 19th-ranked *chaebol* group.

Ta-da!

“Woah! Drink up! Let’s drink until our guts turn inside out today, goddammit!”

“Have you ever *not* drunk until you were a complete mess…?”

He cleanly ignored the remark and poured the alcohol.

He poured expensive liquor into any glass and gulped it down as if it were *sungnyung*.

That expensive alcohol, which others would only sip a little on a good day, he chugged while spilling it, with two women clinging to his sides.

The dark interior was so dim you couldn’t even see how the hands of a wristwatch ticked.

It was a high-end room salon, a drinking establishment where at least lawyers or doctors frequented, and even successful celebrities would visit; the most preferred patrons were, of course, corporate executives who held the purse strings.

Andonggyu was the one who had practically rented out this entire place.

In terms of appearance, his face was probably below average.

His height was also shorter than average and he was small, but women never ceased to surround him.

“Oppa, you can really hold your liquor♡”

“It looks like we’re going all out tonight, should we order another bottle?”

The reason was obvious.

Wealth.

Just decent-looking females flocking, looking only at the male’s money.

Honeybees obsessed with the sweet money dripping all around, aiming for a windfall.

‘Wow, I wonder how many checks he tucked between those tits for them not to even glance this way.’

I watched with a bitter laugh.

I was also a *chaebol* son in my own right, but my current situation was a bit different.

That was because the inheritance distribution was already over, and the fact that I was a complete broke-ass who only received one measly small affiliate company had spread.

Of course, even that wasn’t a small amount of money, but Ahn Donggyu was a lottery ticket with a guaranteed win, so the relative discrimination was strong.

A truly degenerate son, confirmed to inherit a massive company worth tens of trillions.

“You’re here after a long time, so you’re going to stay and play all night, right?”

That’s why they’re so crazy about him.

Because the future chairman’s side was empty, the bar girls harbored delusions of “what if.”

‘Truly presumptuous dreams, I must say.’

Their behavior was truly pathetic.

Moreover, I wasn’t envious of his treatment either.

Because I would soon far surpass him anyway.

More importantly, that guy is the young master of a drug-peddling pharmaceutical company, and I see him purely as a friend, not a competitor.

He himself didn’t seem to have an ounce of interest in management either.

“Hey, why aren’t you drinking?”

“Huh?”

I was pointed out for merely holding my glass without bringing it to my lips.

In the strange pink mood lighting of the club atmosphere, I stared idly at the alcohol whose original color I couldn’t even tell, but feeling no desire to drink it, I set it aside.

“That’s enough.

I decided to cut down on drinking. I quit smoking too.”

“…Are you crazy?

Ah! Did you start doing drugs?”

“Fuck, is that something a pharmaceutical company son who sells nutritional supplements should say?”

After giving him a scolding with a curse, I gently rubbed my side.

“I decided to cut back because of my fatty liver. I got a check-up this time, and they said it wasn’t good at all.”

“Puh-haha!”

Ahn Donggyu laughed with a strange sound, even spilling the alcohol he drank from the corners of his mouth.

As he dripped expensive liquor, the two bar girls next to him took out handkerchiefs and automatically wiped him clean.

Ever since I possessed this body, Cha Doyeon’s physique was a complete wreck.

He was a walking general hospital, so indulgent in various forms of entertainment that I had to give up a few things.

It certainly felt like winning the lottery, but this body came with truly many restrictions.

But for some reason, my friend chuckled at another’s chronic illness and sorrow, then,

“Bastard, you’ve been really strange lately. You even go to work at the company every single boring day.”

“Is it strange for a company owner to go to work?”

“Your character has changed! Your character.

You didn’t have this kind of diligence before, did some goal appear?”

“……”

Ahn Donggyu asked a question he probably wasn’t even interested in, then downed his drink.

If it was a goal, it was undoubtedly my family.

And the cute sisters who came from that belly.

Especially now, I’m sharpening my knife towards Cha Hwaryeon, who stabbed me in the back.

If things go according to plan, the day I take her life won’t be far off.

“Anyway, no more drinking.”

“Hey, hey, if you’re not going to drink, why did you come out?”

“You called me.

……Or is there a specific reason you called me?”

My sharp gaze gathered, looking quite serious at the question.

But as if puffing up and then quickly deflating, he sneered at me.

“No?

What’s left of me if you take away alcohol? I just called you to drink with me.”

“Haa…”

A hamster wheel spinning foolishly.

Being with this degenerate made me feel like I was becoming a fool myself, so I got up to leave.

He called me as I was passing by, making me wonder if there was something important, but as expected, he was just a guy who drank with women.

Judging that there was no need to stay any longer, I lifted my butt to stand up.

“Hey, then, wanna have some fun with women together?”

*Twitch.*

My ears perked up instantly.

I stood frozen for 3 seconds, pondering, then sat back on the sofa as if rewinding.

I cleared my throat awkwardly and asked.

“Is there… something new?”

As I asked awkwardly, his slightly yellow teeth reflected in the revealing lights.

“Bastard, looks like you quit everything else but you didn’t quit fucking.”

For a man, the moment he gives that up, it’s game over.

When I conveyed a nuance of agreement, he dismissed the women who had been pouring drinks beside him.

They must have already taken a good chunk of money for drinks, but when their spot was taken away, they seemed disappointed that they couldn’t extort more, leaving with annoyed expressions.

When only the two of us were left in the VVIP room, he drank more alcohol, then began to speak with a slightly slurred tongue.

“How about a women’s stripping game?”

“…Stripping?”

I had hoped he’d discovered some new form of entertainment, but I was instantly disappointed.

With an incredulous look, I glared at Ahn Donggyu… at my friend Donggyu, that bastard.

“Were the women who were glued to your side earlier even properly dressed?”

Their skirts were so short you could clearly see their panties, truly, they could be called prostitutes.

No matter how decent-looking a bar girl was, if you just gave her enough money, she’d immediately take off her underwear and sell her body.

At this remark, Donggyu flinched in disgust.

“Eh-hey! It’s offensive to compare them to just any easy bar girls.”

“Then what’s different?”

“Today, I carefully selected only decent-looking girls. Of course, I only picked young ones who are all worth taking.”

Typical of a pharmaceutical company’s son, he was trying to sell me something, but honestly, the more I heard, the more it was just content that deserved nothing but criticism.

After all, for us, calling freshly graduated young women and having sex with them was already a daily routine.

But as if that wasn’t all, he dragged his butt over and sat next to me, then,

“Do you watch internet broadcasts on YouTube these days?”

“I don’t have time for that.”

Since possessing this body, if I watched anything, it was news; I don’t recall ever watching SNS or videos.

I don’t even think I’ve opened an app since possessing this body.

Because I was so busy living my current life.

“Bastard, lately, whenever I say anything, you always shut me down.

Well… anyway, these days, there are tons of kids who are all coming into this line of work, right?”

“So?”

“Hoo… You still don’t get it?

There are countless bitches who thought they’d get famous because they were decent-looking, or who are still desperately struggling to get famous but can’t. In terms of games, it means there are many kids who only see bad endings and are frustrated with reality.”

He chuckled.

I wondered why others’ failures were so amusing to him, but then,

“You saw those bar girls earlier, right?

Those fucking bitches filled their wallets a bit, and now they don’t even know how to be grateful. All they do is secretly water down the drinks to extort more money.”

“……”

I was a little surprised.

I thought he was just a pushover who only threw money around, but he seemed to be at the level of a monkey who knew how to use a calculator.

“So this time, I gathered kids who chased their dreams but fell short, who are desperately in need of money.

Kids who would do anything if you just gave them enough money for one night.”

Hearing that, I was a little bit tempted.

And come to think of it, since I had been abstaining from alcohol and even women, I really didn’t have anywhere to spend my money.

“Where are those kinds of girls now?”

“Bastard, why do you think I called you?

I had them waiting beforehand. Hey, come in!”

He shouted outside, and a moment later, a group of very nervous women entered the room one after another.

-…….

Six women stood modestly with their hands clasped together.

They were clearly young girls uncomfortable with such a setting, standing side-by-side, carefully watching our expressions.

Although the mood lighting was dim, their faces were naturally attractive, and their makeup and outfits were all different.

Modified school uniforms, plain hot pants with a crop top, a knitted top barely covering their bottoms with black boots, flashy idol stage outfits, Dongtan dresses, and even maid costumes.

“Ah, hello! It’s truly an honor to be given the opportunity to serve the Chairmen.”

The first woman in the school uniform awkwardly greeted us as a representative, stammering.

They introduced themselves one by one, with diverse professions and circumstances.

Among them were a BJ [Broadcast Jockey] broadcasting adult content due to debt, a once-famous influencer who failed after investing, and university students needing tuition.

“Th-that’s all! We… we will work hard if you order us to do anything!”

“““We will work hard!”””

Though their circumstances differed, these women with the same goal had gathered.

None of them hid the fact that they were desperate for money.

Their dreams were on a glamorous stage, but reality was not so easy.

The reality behind the stage, where the curtain call had fallen.

‘Hmm….’

Setting other things aside, the sincerity in their eyes was interesting.

As the desperate women stood there, hesitantly watching for cues, I sank deeper into the sofa.

‘I’ve worked quite a bit lately, so this kind of entertainment would be nice too.’

Perhaps reading my willingness to participate in this amusement from my face, Donggyu emptied the rest of his glass.

After watching them for a while, I bet an amount that would make these females react.

“To really get things exciting, how about we withdraw a generous 100 million won each in cash?”

-!!!

Upon hearing that, the women automatically straightened into an attention pose.

“Bastard, you’ve been working hard lately, so I guess you’re not short on money now?

Okay, let’s just spend 100 million won each and have fun today!”

We immediately instructed them to bring 100 million won each.

Meanwhile, the toys laid out before us stood ready in a ‘pussy-at-attention’ pose before the generous males.

-……♥

Their eyes, burning with anticipation, were clearly visible.

Their meekly clasped hands and fidgeting movements were, in fact, a posture that desired to be treated like toys as quickly as possible.
