Six women who confessed to me.

I seriously thought about what kind of existence they were to me.

Seo Yi-eung.

The first friend I made at the academy and a precious person who helped me greatly in overcoming my gynophobia.

Hanabi.

A friend I met through gaming and with whom I can have the most comfortable conversation.

Cha Seol-yu.

The owner of the building where I live.

He is a benefactor who helped me through financial difficulties, and a spiritual supporter who spares no effort in giving me advice whenever he has the chance.

Isabella.

She is a friend I became close with while working part-time, and sometimes follows me around like a puppy, and sometimes takes good care of me like a mother.

Santoto and Forest Toto.

The best among the women who take care of me.

Not only do they bombard us with gifts, but the rabbits make and bring us so many side dishes that the refrigerator is almost empty.

Although they all have a special relationship with me.

Looking back, it seemed like I never exchanged rational feelings with them.

Then don’t I think of them as the opposite sex?

That wasn’t it again.

As I slowly gathered my thoughts, I clearly realized that I also had rational feelings for them.

But a problem arose.

It’s too late to realize your feelings.

This was after receiving confessions from all six women.

The worst situation is having to pick one person you like the most.

I thought about it and thought about it again and again.

In the end, I couldn’t choose just one person.

I couldn’t choose one person and reject the rest.

Because they were all precious people to me.

More than anything.

These are people who, knowingly or unknowingly, helped me heal the trauma I had.

A nightmare of being tortured by a group of soldiers.

It was covered with memories of eating with Seo Yi-eung.

The warm meal I shared with her slowly healed the wounds in my heart.

A nightmare where I stayed up all night alone developing Iljin’s game ID.

It was covered with memories of playing games all morning with Hanabi.

Hanabi’s laughter, heard through the headset, erased the pain of the past.

A nightmare where he became a clown in a karaoke bar and suffered all kinds of humiliation and shame.

It was covered with memories of singing karaoke with Isabella.

A nightmare of being called out to a group of people drinking in a park in the middle of the night, being forcibly stripped, made fun of, and sexually harassed.

It was covered with memories of drinking with Cha Seol-yu while looking up at the night sky.

The honest conversation under the starlight soothed the wounds in my heart.

Even the fear of being beaten, which forms the basis of all trauma, was slowly forgotten in the memories of being comforted by the soft fur of Santoto and Forest Toto. The rabbits’ warm body temperature melted the cold in my heart and gave me unforgettable peace even in my dreams.

Every moment spent with them became the light of my life.

The past has healed and the future is colored with hope. Now each and every one of them is an indispensable and precious person in my life.

So I decided.

I’m not going to pick just one person.

I don’t know if they will accept my decision, but I wanted to move towards embracing everyone.

And in order to convey my message, I had to become an official hunter.

A man who is not even a formal hunter cannot ask several women to date him on the premise of marriage. I plan to date on the premise of marriage.

Rather than becoming an official hunter.

Although it would be an even more difficult process to be promoted to a B-class hunter where polygamy is allowed, I was going to never give up and try desperately for them.

“Ha-hwi, these people…”

Hanabi asked cautiously, shrinking her body and looking around.

Six women, including Hanabi, were gathered in front of the building.

Everyone arrived on time as promised.

As soon as they gathered together, I told them the truth without delay.

That I received confession from everyone here on the same day.

The moment the truth is revealed.

The women looked at each other with puzzled faces.

“Lee Eung, did you confess too?”

“···Isabella, you too?”

Isabella and Seo Yi-eung ask each other in confusion.

“Tea Seol Oil. I never knew you would want to covet your teacher’s man. Carrot.”

“Lotus root! Don’t try to steal our man! Ungrateful bitch!”

“What can I say, I liked Ha Hwi first.”

The rabbits and Cha Seol-yu argue while frowning.

“W, everyone else here confessed too? Then don’t I have no chance at all…?”

I feel like I’ve lost hope.

Hanabi mutters to herself with a despairing expression.

The atmosphere became chaotic.

After I calmed them down.

He declared that he would speak informally from now on for the sake of convenience, and explained why he had initially kept quiet about the fact that he had received a confession from everyone.

“I’m sorry. I deliberately hid this because I was afraid that if I revealed this in advance, you would continue to feel anxious while waiting for the answer.”

When I said this, fortunately, everyone seemed to understand what I meant.

Although his face still looks embarrassed.

Afterwards, after receiving a confession in front of them, I honestly shared my deep thoughts.

When I first received the sudden confession, my mind was confused. I didn’t know how I felt. So I said I would answer later.

Starting with this story.

When I went home, gathered my thoughts, and looked back on my memories with you guys, I realized that I had a rational crush on you guys.

But it was impossible to choose just one person.

You are all precious to me, and I am grateful to you for helping me overcome my painful past.

etc.

I blurted out the lines I had been organizing in my head all this time in front of them.

“If everyone says you like it, you might look like a playboy and trash… I am sincere to everyone here. Trust me.”

He looked into each of their eyes and said.

Whether or not they would accept my sincerity depended entirely on their choice.

listen to my story

When the women look like they are having trouble.

I took out the official hunter certificate issued today from my pocket.

And he held out his hunter ID to them.

“So, this time I’ll confess to you.”

With a serious face, he added that he wanted to become a B-class hunter and take responsibility for all of you.

Instead of me accepting their confession, I ended up having to confess and them answering my confession.

It was a moment when their positions and mine were completely reversed.

I looked at them with trembling eyes.

“Uh, um···.”

“······.”

“Are you saying you want to date all of us now…?”

“Carrot···.”

No one is hasty in answering.

They seemed to be hesitating, looking at each other.

This reaction was somewhat expected.

Because it is not common for people to readily accept a confession that they want to socialize with everyone.

No matter how tolerant this world is of polyandry and polygamy.

In this world, most men have no sexual desire, so if a man marries multiple women, he is treated as a patriot.

The desire to monopolize the person you love still exists in everyone, regardless of gender.

The six women hesitated for a moment when I confessed my true feelings, but then one by one they raised their heads and made eye contact with me as if they had decided on something.

Among them, the first to open their mouths were the rabbits.

“It’s a little uncomfortable, but it doesn’t really matter. I am satisfied just by being able to spend the rest of my life with you, Kang Ha-hwi. Carrot.”

“Lotus root. I will also follow Santoto’s opinion. Because I can’t like another man if not you anyway.”

Next, Cha Seol-yu spoke.

“I understand your choice to some extent. Because if you choose one person, you will be afraid that you will lose other precious people. Even so, it is difficult to accept the idea of dating multiple women at the same time… Still, I will kill my feelings and accept your choice. Ha-hwi I know that you are not the type of person who makes this choice because you want to meet this woman, and I felt sincerity when you said that you would meet seriously with marriage on the premise. Instead, should we show favoritism to just one person?”

Cha Seol-yu finished speaking with a smile.

Seo Yi-eung and Isabella spoke next.

“Honestly, I’m okay with Isabella, but other people are a little worse off.”

“I’m okay with Lee Eung, but the others are a bit…”

“···But what can I do? Ha-hwi, I need you to understand that you want to do that.”

“Right… We can’t do anything without you.”

“Well, my mom will understand. My dad is also polygamous and has other wives besides my mom.”

“Ah. Lee Eung, was your father also polygamous? Then it will be easy to convince you. Polygamy is not allowed in our country, and my mother is polyandrous, so I don’t think it will be easy to convince her… Still, something will work out.”

Seo Yi-eung and Isabella muttered with bitter faces.

finally.

“I’m glad I didn’t get kicked… And he said he would even marry me…”

Hanabi spoke with joy.

He’s just happy to be dating me.

He didn’t seem to care about dating other women at the same time.

“I’m really happy because it’s my first time receiving a confession from a man… Anyway, I’m fine as long as it doesn’t make me feel left out. Thank you…!”

It was a particularly apologetic response.

Rather, I should be thankful.

anyway.

Each of the six women reacted differently, but they all still accepted my confession.

“···Thank you everyone. It must not have been an easy decision.”

I slowly looked at them one by one and spoke with such emotion that it took my breath away.

And I made a promise on this day.

So that they do not regret this choice they made even for a moment.

I will love you equally until the day I die, without neglecting anyone.
