Prologue

The unification of the continent; it was an achievement neither the Golden Wise King Kapitle nor the Holy Pope Pedrian had been able to make.

Sungjin was the undeniable king of the continent now. He was standing in front of a huge door. It wasn't a door made by humans—it was as large as a mountain and all of its decoration was refined and glamorous.

It was the door of the great temple that would lead him to "the center." It was told that the door would only open for those who deserved it, and the door was greeting Sungjin with a bright light while his girls and other heroes looked at the majestic scene. It was centuries ago when the door had last opened.

The Valkyries came from the door to kneel in front of him. Among the Valkyries, a special Valkyrie with golden wings walked toward Sungjin and handed him a platinum goblet decorated with jewels. "The conqueror of the continent, our gods granted you this goblet to acknowledge your great victories."

"Hmm. This is the prize for the qualification round," Sungjin commented, and took the goblet with a big smile on his face. This goblet is more glamorous than the ones I had before, and the liquid inside has a much stronger scent.

Although he was only able to awaken his power up to level 1, he wouldn't mind having more power through taking goblets. He finished the drink in a second and felt more power flowing through him and spreading across his body.

"This is a goblet for a king. It gives you heroic power."

"Huh. What am I getting?"

"Firstly, youth and health until your death and four hundred years of life. Nothing will be able to affect you, not poison or aging or even disease."

"Ha… This is…" It was a reward that was beyond wealth or power. Sungjin was impressed by it. Four hundred years is the general lifespan of a country. Well, Gods wouldn't give you something that was worthless, right?

There were countries that survived longer than that, but there were also countries that ended before a few hundred years, especially when it came to dynasties. There weren't many dynasties that had lasted longer than four hundred years.

"Secondly, the women you take will keep their youth and youthful bodies until their deaths."

"Pff." Sungjin could feel beady eyes behind him without looking. Oh my.

It was the power to bless his women. It was a proper symbol for a chosen king, but it was a bit difficult for Sungjin. Shouldn't I be happy to have a power to thank them like this?

The method to share the reward was difficult for him, although he couldn't argue with the gods about it.

He felt the pressure of his responsibilities.

"Thirdly, your right to rule this continent and the right to try to conquer the center, but you should be careful before you decide to challenge the center."

"I should be careful?"

"If you are satisfied with your achievements and stop here, you will be the ruler of the continent for four hundred years. If you try to conquer all three continents and go to the center, there's a chance you will fail and never be able to come back."

"Okay. I will keep that in mind."

"We wish you glory in your future." The Valkyries flew up and disappeared behind the door.

Conquering the center. He wanted to become an Arc Master, which was like a god in this world, and the unification of the continent was the first challenge to do it. The second challenge was conquering the center to unify the world. The last step was to pass the sacred area to become a god.

There were only two people who had made it to the second challenge. There was no one who had made it to the last challenge.

When he arrived in this world, he had nothing to lose, but now there were a lot of people who were counting on him, so the Valkyrie had asked him if it would be the right decision to keep going when he had a lot of responsibilities.

The Valkyrie's right: I should just be satisfied and stay here with everything I have. Pff. But Sungjin didn't announce his decision when he turned around.

"Congratulations." All the noble heroes kneeled to celebrate the event.

"I'm happy for you." Ereka smiled.

"Haha. You are a one-man dynasty." Eustasia laughed with happiness.

"Sungjin Oppa, congratulations."

"Congrats!"

Jenna and Rachel also smiled with happiness.

"Now you are a king who can bless your women." Zakiya put her hands on her breast, as if she were offering her body to him.

"Haha. Thanks, everyone. Should we have a party today to celebrate?"

"Yeah."

Sungjin offered a party without answering if he would or wouldn't challenge the center. He thought it was time to celebrate and reward his people.

It was natural that Sungjin's wealth and power were unimaginable. A president who served as a ruler for a short amount of time in a democratic country had strong power, but Sungjin was a king who would rule for the rest of his lifetime—his power was beyond comprehension. Therefore, although he didn't like too much extravagance, the party he threw was grand and glamorous, and noble heroes from across the continent gathered to celebrate him, thinking simply being there with him was their honor.

All kinds of rare ingredients from all across the continent were there for him, and even regular-looking dishes were exquisite cuisine from top chefs.

Top musicians played music for him. In the other corner, servants took care of the details of the party in the hall to keep the place beautiful and enjoyable. The treasures Sungjin had behind the wall were so numerous that it would require an army just to count them.

He had everything.

But the noble heroes envied him not because of those things but because of the beautiful girls around him. He must be really happy. Well, that must be the privilege of the king.

Many of them had more than one wife, but Sungjin was the only one who had the best beauties from all around the continent. They were the best in beauty, social status and ability.

And when the king takes them to bed, they will keep their beauty and youth… forever

It was a next-level lifestyle to keep young beauties young next to him.

"Sungjin, taste this." Ereka gave Sungjin a juicy piece of steak.

"Yummy."

"Oh my god, I'm so happy. I cooked it to your taste."

"You are right. It's perfect." Smiling Ereka and happy Sungjin looked like an item. If there was a painter to paint the scene, the painter would have named the painting "a luncheon of the conqueror and his queen."

Eustasia cut another piece of steak to feed Sungjin. "I can't cook, but I can feed you."

"Haha. Sure, I will eat it as well," Sungjin smiled, as if he wouldn't let any of them feel lonely. With a princess on his right and a great general on his left, he looked like a powerful lion among beautiful lionesses.

"Sungjin Oppa, I will give you some cookies!" Rachel jumped on Sungjin's lap with a long chocolate stick in her mouth and put the other end of the stick in front of his mouth.

"Hey, where did you even see this?" Sungjin laughed but took a tiny bite off the stick.

"Sungjin Oppa, here's mine." Jenna came to him with a tiny cookie in her mouth.

"…Jenna… This cookie is way too small," said Sungjin, only to make Ereka hide a little cherry that she was holding.

If I tried with this cherry, would you think I'm trying too hard? I could jump up on your lap as well… but maybe I'm too heavy…

Zakiya put a glass in her cleavage. "I will offer you a drink." The glass was full, but her tight breasts held it. It was a trick not many girls could do.

"Hey, there are kids here."

"That's why I should teach them how to serve you when they grow up."

"No need."

"Pff. You are a conqueror of the continent but you're quite shy in this department."

"I would say healthy." Sungjin felt a bit troubled, but the heroes thought he was just enjoying himself with the girls.

Soon we will attend a ceremony.

For sure. He is old enough.

Hmm. Since he can keep his youth for four hundred years, he doesn't have to rush to have kids….

Sungjin's kids would be vassals for his bloodline but not his successors.

But he is too old to spend his nights alone.

He didn't have to marry every woman he slept with, but since he cherished his girls, and since the girls were old enough for marriage, the heroes thought a marriage or several marriages were coming.

Would he marry them all at once?

One by one?

What would be the order?

"The saint is a bit young for marriage, but maybe he has slept with her already."

The noble heroes whispered to each other and talked about the royal customs.

Sungjin knew what they were talking about. Sigh. I should take care of this first.

He was the only one with his knowledge from Earth. This world had its own culture and its reasons for such a culture.

He had to make his choice.
