Creating a harem because she couldn’t handle her lover’s sexual desires—this was something Sasha, who had a strong desire for exclusivity, couldn’t understand.

But upon further reflection, it wasn’t entirely nonsensical.

After all, Kim Yu-seong possessed an Extreme Yang Constitution.

According to ancient legends, it was a unique constitution often held by heroes who left their mark on history, such as Hercules or Oda Nobunaga.

Of course, even with the same constitution, individual differences exist, but with Kim Yu-seong’s level of Yang qi, it wouldn’t be surprising if his virility was incredibly strong.

It’s said that Hercules, who also had an Extreme Yang Constitution, slept with 50 women in one night.

“Just how incredible is he for you to make such a proposal?”

In response to the virgin Karen’s question, Kumiko chuckled softly and replied.

“The night I spent with him, I seriously thought I might die. If it were just once in a while, fine, but if I had to handle that every day, my body wouldn’t be able to take it.”

As she said this, Kumiko gently stroked her abdomen.

Despite her grim explanation, her wistful gesture oozed affection for Kim Yu-seong like honey.

And that image of Kumiko firmly impressed at least one fact on the three people gathered there.

‘Ah, this person really does love Kim Yu-seong.’

But that and the harem were separate issues.

Sasha, who seemed to be thinking along the same lines as Rika, spoke up.

“I understand what you’re saying. But that doesn’t give me a reason to agree with your plan, President. Why should I submit to you? I can just take him away.”

A few months ago, when Rika first extended her hand to form an alliance with Karen, Sasha coldly rejected her offer.

She said she’d rather win love on her own than gather a group like a coward.

It was a truly resolute stance, so much so that Rika, who had made the first offer, felt intimidated.

But the person here now wasn’t Rika—it was Kumiko.

Unlike the ordinary Rika, Kumiko was a woman who had become a master of eloquence through over a decade of family battles.

Kumiko revealed a truth to Sasha, who boldly declared her intention to steal Kim Yu-seong.

“You’re saying something quite amusing, Sasha. There’s no way Yu-seong, who is so responsible, would abandon me, right?”

With a slight smile, Kumiko shared some information only she knew.

“By receiving Yu-seong’s first time and him taking my virginity, a deep bond has formed between us. That bond is something that only I, among everyone here, possess.”

Kumiko said this as if it were the most natural fact in the world, narrowing her eyes as she looked at Sasha.

“If you thought Yu-seong would betray me and go to you, that’s a huge mistake. I’d rather tell you to wake up from that dream. This proposal is purely out of consideration for the fact that we both like the same man. To be blunt, I could pay women to satisfy Yu-seong’s desires. That might actually be cleaner for me, as I wouldn’t have to compete with women who have feelings for him. But the reason I’m making this offer, despite the burden, is that I believe it would be better for Yu-seong to have multiple capable women supporting him rather than just me.”

“……”

She was simply explaining her position calmly, but it carried more persuasive power than a threat would have.

Thoroughly objective information aids in making cold, rational judgments at the negotiation table.

And this show of confidence by Kumiko definitely struck a chord with Sasha.

“Certainly… the Kim Yu-seong I know would probably act as you say.”

Letting go of her hostile gaze, Sasha murmured this and then sighed softly before asking.

“So, what should I do?”

The one who was surprised by her quick surrender was actually Rika, who was watching the situation unfold.

“Sasha-chan, you’re convinced with just that?!”

Hearing Rika’s shock, Sasha raised one eyebrow and asked back.

“You’re the one at fault here. What can I do in this situation? If this were chess, we’d already been checkmated. That woman took the initiative and secured the position of Kim Yu-seong’s girlfriend first. Now, we only have two choices: give up and find a new connection or surrender and cooperate.”

“Surely, there’s a better way!”

But the gaze Sasha directed at Rika was as cold as ice.

“You already know, don’t you? Kim Yu-seong isn’t the type of man who would betray someone who trusts him. And that’s why we fell for him.”

“Ugh…”

Rika, at a loss for words, closed her mouth with a defeated expression.

Watching Rika quietly, Sasha let out a small sigh and said.

“Well, anyone with normal feelings wouldn’t accept such a crazy proposal. You’re reacting more normally than I am, Rika. But I can’t give up on Kim Yu-seong.”

As Sasha said this, she tightly grasped the locket pendant hanging around her neck.

“Because he’s the man who defeated my father.”

This was something Rika, who knew nothing about the underworld, couldn’t understand at all.

But the determination behind her words was unmistakable.

While Rika felt resistance to the strange concept of a harem and couldn’t easily make a decision, Sasha had quickly and decisively made up her mind, almost refreshingly so.

That’s why she felt like someone who lived in a completely different world.

Unlike Karen, who had quickly become close with her due to her natural friendliness, Rika couldn’t open up and become close with Sasha, likely because of this sense of alienation.

When Rika, who had been talking, shut her mouth tightly, Sasha snorted as if losing interest and turned her gaze to Karen.

“So Karen, what do you plan to do?”

“I….”

Suddenly having the focus turned on her, Karen showed signs of panic.

But she soon closed her eyes tightly and answered.

“I’ll cooperate with your plan as well.”

Rika looked at Karen with a surprised expression at her unexpected answer, but there was no hesitation in Karen’s eyes, which were already resolute.

After hearing Sasha and Karen’s answers, Kumiko nodded with a sly smile on her lips.

“Then, with this, the majority agrees with my opinion. We can proceed with the plan.”

Hearing this, Sasha crossed her arms and asked.

“I’ve been hearing talk about this harem plan for a while, but what exactly is the plan? Are we all going to emigrate to the Middle East together?”

Kumiko shook her head in response.

“No, there’s no need to go to a distant foreign country when Japan, which is practically our family’s home ground, is right here. Just think simply. I’m planning to amend this country’s laws.”

“…The law?”

Even though Sasha was the daughter of Ivan, the head of the Red Mafia who controls Russia’s underworld, this was still an unreal story.

To amend a country’s laws just to create a legal harem?

It was truly the idea of a madman.

But precisely because it was such a crazy idea, it stirred the rebellious spirit Sasha had inherited from her father.

“Interesting story. Explain it in more detail.”

Kumiko smirked and said.

“I’m glad we can communicate well. The plan is simple. I intend to become the head of the Saionji family. And using the connections my family, which has been noble since before democracy was established in this country, has in politics, I plan to influence the government. There are countless people in Japan’s political and financial circles who owe favors to my family, so changing the law a little shouldn’t be too difficult.”

“But changing an existing law isn’t an easy task. There will be resistance, right?”

“I’ve already thought of an excuse for that. Japan is currently facing issues of an aging population and declining birth rates due to young people’s reluctance to marry. I plan to use that.”

The phenomenon of men who excessively restrict their food intake, going beyond even the so-called ‘herbivore men’1, is often discussed in the media these days.

For those who absurdly blame young people rather than the flawed social structure for the low birth rate problem, this would sound like a plausible excuse.

So, she’d just use that to her advantage.

“If we justify it as a means to preserve the superior genetics of the Japanese by having one superior man (an alpha male) father many children with multiple women, there will be plenty of people who will enthusiastically support it. After all, you can count on one hand the number of top leaders in this country who don’t have mistresses in addition to their legal wives.”

“Indeed, it’s quite a plausible story. It’s an act of defiance against the norm of monogamy in an era where it’s considered common sense, unlike ancient times when the capable took everything.”

Karen, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, finally spoke up.

“So, to summarize what we’ve discussed so far, Sasha and I just need to help you, the student council president, become the head of your family?”

“That’s correct. You’re smarter than you look, Karen.”

“…Should I beat her up?”

“Calm down, Karen. In this situation, saying something like that won’t sound like a joke.”

It was rare, but Sasha was the one holding Karen back this time, though Kumiko, unaware of the situation, asked with a bright smile.

“So, will you help me?”

“…If the condition is that we share Kim Yu-seong.”

“I feel the same.”

As Sasha and Karen answered in turn, Kumiko turned to Rika, who hadn’t yet given a definite answer.

“What about you, Rika?”

“M-Me?!”

There’s a saying that if you’re a normal person among abnormal ones, the normal person becomes the strange one.

As a very normal person with ordinary thinking, Rika stammered when the three pairs of eyes turned toward her, then finally made a decision, thinking it was all or nothing.

“I’ll cooperate, too.”

Rika wasn’t ready to give up just yet.

She was confident that her love for ‘him’ was stronger than anyone else’s in this room.

“Then it’s decided.”

Hearing Rika’s answer, Kumiko nodded with a satisfied expression and opened the fan she always carried with her.

She then pointed at each of the three people sitting before her with the fan and said.

“From now on, you are all members of the secret group, the Yu-seong Group.”

And since forcing the harem on Yu-seong might cause resistance, she decided to do it this way:

“The decisive moment will be the 78th Annual Fujiwara Festival, which will take place in two weeks.”

Saionji Kumiko’s eyes shone brighter than ever as she schemed to trap her husband, Kim Yu-seong, in the mire of a harem.
