After changing clothes and moving to the rest area,

“Please rest comfortably here for a while, Lady Bu. I will take care of the decorations now. I’ll come back in about half an hour.”

“Yes…! See you later.”

“Yes, then….”

With a smile after bowing once, Lady Geum left the room, satisfaction evident on her face.

Thud..!

“Oh… It’s all white now.”

As soon as the door closed completely, dragging my tired legs, I quickly pulled out a chair placed by the table with a loud noise and sat down.

“Everything looks similar to me, how picky she must be…”

After trying on numerous outfits, the chosen one was a very elaborate attire with pink lotus flowers embroidered on a white base.

It was a quite dazzling and burdensome outfit with intricate patterns woven with gold threads, different from what I usually wore, which made it feel extremely awkward….

Since I usually preferred dark and deep colors like black or brown rather than bright and colorful ones, it seemed even more awkward.

“So Heeseon went through the trouble of making these beautiful clothes, but I keep wearing black clothes all the time…”

But what can I do? Bright and colorful clothes just don’t attract me naturally.

Hmm… Maybe it’s because I’ve been living the life of a hunter for so long.

How can I wear such dull colors to calm my mind?

Hunters shouldn’t stand out.

Because of this, just wearing bright clothes makes me feel a bit uneasy.

I’m already introverted, and because of this flashy outfit, I feel even more self-conscious…

The only fortunate thing is that despite this unease, the bright clothes seemed to suit me quite well?

-“Wow… Lady Bu…! Um… it’s so dazzling…”

-“Haahh…”

-“Sniff…! Lady Bu… Hic… Surely there is no one shining as brightly as our Lady Bu in heaven and earth. Hic…!”

“……”

Especially after Lady Geum finished dressing up and meticulously checked around me for any imperfections, seemingly unable to tolerate even the slightest flaw, when she found none, suddenly her emotions surged, pressing her eyes with the hem of her garment, tears streaming down her face….

Oh my… Lady Geum is truly…

I knew she was affectionate, but between the first impression and the impression of her being stern until now, I didn’t realize she was so overflowing with emotion.

Well, after all the hard work we did together all day, it must have felt like the emotional moment after successfully completing a group project or assignment.

It was a bit overwhelming, but still, it wasn’t a bad feeling.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed by my overly dressed-up appearance and thinking it might be too much, thanks to the positive reactions from the guests, although a bit exaggerated, I could gain confidence in my dressed-up look.

Knock, knock..!

“Huh? Who is it?”

Sitting absentmindedly, replenishing my energy spent changing clothes, I heard someone knocking on the door.

It couldn’t have been the guests since it’s past half an hour…

“It’s me, Kim Seobang!”

“I’m… Sari.”

“Meoww..!”

Ah! It’s our kids?

“Hey, come in quickly! I missed you guys, and you’re finally here. Even though it’s only half a day apart, how much I missed you…”

Creak..!

The door slowly opens.

Squeak…!

“……?”

Why aren’t they coming in?

I told them to come in, so why are they all just peeking in and hesitating like that?

Don’t they want to come in?

“Huh? What’s up with you guys? Why aren’t you coming in right away?”

“……”

Seriously, why are our kids like this?

“Um… Sorry, Mr. Kim…”

“Sorry… Master…”

“Meow….”

Sorry? Sorry for what?

“What are you all talking about? What do you have to be sorry to me for?”

Feeling puzzled, I directly ask the three. The one who seems most hesitant among them, Hyangdani, representing the group, hesitantly responds.

“Well… Mr. Kim tried to help us, but we didn’t do anything…”

“……”

Oh, right! Now I remember…!

These cute little traitors…!

I called out to them so eagerly, and they just ignored me…!

I was so preoccupied that I almost forgot.

Ha-ha, maybe I should play disappointed for a bit while seeking revenge?

“Uh-huh….”

“Sigh…”

“Meow…”

“……”

… Cancel that.

It hurts too much to tease them.

Hyangdani, usually flashing seductive glances, now looks dejected, with droopy eyes, while Sari, with large, beautiful eyes welling up with tears, appears on the verge of crying, nervously pursing her lips.

Phew… They’re cute, but how pitiful and heart-wrenching it is….

If I tease them now, they might really burst into tears.

Wow…

While I was busy freshening up, it seems our troublemakers were having fun.

“Oh! Oops…”

Oops… I almost drooled without realizing it.

Well, there must be something significant happening today for even these troublemakers to be dressed up so flamboyantly.

I thought I had dressed up nicely, but compared to my girls, this was just a drop in the bucket, a drop in the bucket!

Hyangdani, adorned in heavenly attire, with her blue hair elegantly styled and matching vivid blue eyes, wearing a bright yellow skirt that complements her top beautifully, unlike the loose fit of traditional Korean clothing, accentuating Hyangdani’s well-balanced curves…

I found myself involuntarily reaching out to touch it, so mesmerizing it was.

And Sari?

In her lavender outfit resembling a swallowtail flower, the pale gray hues mirroring Sari’s hair and eyes, enhancing her unique rough yet charming appeal.

Moreover, the way the garment gracefully falls along the line of her body, highlighting her most attractive feature—the hip—how did they know to emphasize that part with a beautifully flowing skirt?

Wow… The contradictory harmony of cuteness and maturity…

It emitted such a subtle allure, as if encapsulating both Sari and Seri’s charms, making it impossible to look away.

“Meow~”

Ah! I almost forgot about our Yomi?

I must have been too focused on admiring Hyangdani and Sari.

“Meowww….”

Purr purr purr purr….

Seemingly jealous, Yomi playfully rubs against my leg, as if asking for attention, swiftly passing by as if brushing her body against mine.

Before our adorable Yomi gets more upset, I quickly lift her up, meeting her eyes and praising her.

“Haha, sorry Yomi, come here… Eek! Wow… Now that I look at it, our Princess Yomi dressed up beautifully too, didn’t she?”

“Meow~”

Ah! The compliment about dressing up nicely is not just empty words.

Geez… now I understand why people who raise pets dress them up in clothes. Yomi is wearing a small tricolored jacket and skirt that matches my fur color, looking so adorable with everything neatly put together like a little human…

“Meow~”

Purr purr purr…

Oh, how sweet. Did your collar get loose while I was distracted?

‘Alright, then let’s help Yomi relax a bit…’

I comfortably sit Yomi on my lap, gently stroking her as I admire the beauty of my women once again.

‘Hmm.. something feels a bit different from usual…?’

Although I often find myself absentmindedly admiring the beauty of these fair ladies, today it felt more intense.

A heightened sense of danger? Like my very soul being drawn in?

What’s going on..? What has changed..?

‘Ah! Makeup..! She’s wearing makeup..! No wonder I felt dazzled…’

Even though they were already beautiful, seeing them all made up like this leaves me unable to focus.

Can’t resist. I must give them a kiss.

“Sari, Hyangdan..!”

“…?”

“Hey, guys? Hey… Huh? Why are you both silent? Sari? Hyangdan?”

“Heh… Kim Seobang…?”

“Mas… Master…?”

“…?”

As I call out their names one by one, they finally snap out of their daze.

Oh, right, I was lost in admiring their appearance, but why are they acting like this?

“Kim Seobang! Wow..! Wha, what a handsome man…! I couldn’t breathe for a moment…! I… I’m still trembling and feeling flustered…! Ugh… I keep feeling embarrassed and wanting to go to the bathroom…”

“Master..! Huh…! I suddenly feel fluttery here… I want a pretty baby that looks like you… Can I touch your lower abdomen…? Huh…! My heart is racing…!”

Could it be…?

Just as I was captivated by their appearance, could they also have liked my appearance after dressing up?

“You look cool.. Kyaa…! Hehehe…! People in the neighborhood…! Goblin uncles…! I’m a goblin too…! Even if I’m a bit lower in rank, I’m still a goblin..! Ah…! That man is mine..!”

“That’s right… Master. You look incredibly cool… Huh… So, um… a baby… Should we make a baby here?”

Watching Hyangdan bouncing around with a lively and colorful face like a flower, and Sari gently touching my lower abdomen with flushed cheeks as if catching a cold…

It seems like that might be the case.

If the golden fairy really did make me the most radiant person today, then it seems like it wasn’t a lie.

When I looked in the mirror alone, I thought I was somewhat okay, but seeing how much my women appreciate this, it truly sank in.

Oh! Right..! I almost forgot what I wanted to do because of their reactions.

“Do you know how beautiful you all look right now? So… in that spirit… shall we kiss each other once? I want to kiss…”

“Eek… Kim Seobang..? Kiss…? A kiss? Am I finally going to have my first kiss…? Eek..! I brushed my teeth earlier…! Th-then… uh… calm my heart first…”

“I like kisses too… But Master? Should I kiss Hyangdan too…? Does that mean Hyangdan is really my sister now…? Wow… I like it!”

“Oh… Is that how it is…”

Ah, I haven’t properly responded to Hyangdan yet, have I?

Hmm… taking it step by step with words…

At least Sari didn’t seem to mind, probably because she sees Hyangdan as an irreplaceable best friend.

The problem lies with Heeseon…

Ah… It seems like Heeseon is expecting this to happen roughly as it is…

Ah… My head hurts…! I don’t know…! Since my head hurts, I should start by kissing my girls first…!

“Come here, Hyangdani.”

“Sigh… Ha… Hoo… Hm? Wha… What… Me, me go…? Am I really going, Kim Seobang??”

I gently put down Yomi, who wasn’t in my arms, on the floor. Then, I call for Hyangdani.

Originally, I should have called Sari, the second wife, first. But still, since it’s the first kiss with Hyangdani….

“We’ll just lightly kiss each other once, so there’s no need to be too nervous.”

“Uh… Uh-huh…”

Really. This time, I truly won’t cross the line.

In my heart, I would have not only kissed but also messed up her makeup to mark my territory all over her charming beauty by sticking out my tongue and smearing saliva all over her face….

Phew… The concubines have worked hard to do their makeup and dress up beautifully. Just for my selfish desires, I can’t ruin this pretty makeup by smearing it with saliva.

Do you know how much effort that takes? Someone was watching closely from the side.

Using that determination, I calm myself down and grab Hyangdani’s arm as she nervously approaches and pull her towards me, seating her on my lap.
