Morning crept through the blinds like guilt — slow, golden, and impossible to ignore. Yuna was gone. Left nothing but the faint trace of perfume on his sheets and a soft notification ping from his system. Min-Joon sat up, back bare, his body humming with the afterglow of a conquest that felt less like luck and more like prophecy.
He swung his legs out of bed and stood in front of the mirror, his smirk barely contained. Today was different. He wasn't just playing a game anymore. He was climbing the throne one kiss, one moan, one gaze at a time. And now, with the Seduction Tree unlocked, the game had evolved from flirtation into warfare.
He tapped the screen.

He scrolled down.
Each branch shimmered with wicked potential. These weren't mere boosts. These were weapons. Tools of control, persuasion, dominance. This wasn't about chasing women anymore. It was about bending the world to attraction itself.
The screen flickered. A name appeared.

He smirked."Let's climb Everest."
By noon, he was walking into YUNIQUE, the kind of place where stylists had waiting lists and girls wore heels to get their bangs trimmed. The receptionist looked up, startled — they didn't get walk-ins with abs and confidence like that.
"Appointment?" she asked."No," Min-Joon replied, eyes locking with hers. "But I'm the reason your next client will cancel hers."
Before she could respond, a blonde in heels and contempt brushed past him — Seo-Rin. Her hair was platinum silk, her eyes glossed in condescension. She didn't even glance his way.
Perfect."Miss Seo-Rin," he said, just loud enough.
She paused.Turned.Her gaze flicked over him like a credit scanner. "Do I know you?""Not yet," he replied. "But I'm the man your father warned you about. And the one your mirror dreams about every night."
Silence.Then a tiny scoff.And a look — fleeting — of curiosity.
"You've got ten seconds," she said."I only need five."He stepped close.Close enough for her perfume to shiver.
"Want to make your daddy's card blush? Have lunch with me."She tilted her head.And for one breathless beat...considered it.
✅ Target Acquired: Seo-Rin – Interest Level: 12%

She didn't agree.She didn't say no either.She just walked away slower than before.Leaving the scent of war and jasmine behind.That evening, with the sun kissing Seoul's skyline, Min-Joon stood at the top of the rooftop bar near the main theater district.
His name was starting to slip between lips — not shouted, not declared — whispered. Girls asked about the boy with the eyes too sharp and a smirk too soft. Guys asked why their girlfriends stopped answering on time.
The System screen pulsed again.
[POP-UP EVENT: Double Target Opportunity]
Targets:
1. Sun-Hee (Law Major, Honor Student)

NOW. He turned.Two girls leaned at the edge of the terrace — one with books, the other with beauty filters and a phone out. Min-Joon slid beside them.
"You're the type of women who could sue me... or seduce me," he said.They turned.Bit-Na smirked. "A little bold, aren't you?""Only when I see double trouble."Sun-Hee raised an eyebrow. "You flirt with everyone like this?"
"Only the ones I can't decide between." Within minutes, Bit-Na was livestreaming him to 40k viewers.Sun-Hee was quietly texting under the table.He leaned into both.One ear.One breath.One perfectly timed brush of hand to wrist.The screen vibrated.

Back in bed — alone, this time — Min-Joon reviewed the tree again.He selected "Conversational Hypnosis – Tier 3" as his next goal.
This would change everything.Not just attraction.But control.Desire on command.Fantasy weaponized.And he was close.So close.Just four more targets.And the full Harem Treewould bloom.He clenched his jaw.Closed the screen.And whispered:
"Tomorrow… I make them beg."
