The Man with Hypnotic Powers Doesn’t Hold Back the Second Time Around

A few days later.

For the first time in a while, all seven—no, eight—of my wives gathered together.
It was for an important discussion.

"Dad, is today the day…?"
"Yep. Today’s the day we announce our marriage to the world."

The important discussion was none other than our marriage announcement.
Today was the day we would reveal our union to the entire world.

‘Phew, I’m nervous.’

Memories from before the regression kept surfacing.
From the moment I mentioned marrying three people at once, the backlash had started.
The criticism grew louder and louder until eventually, no matter what I did, I was constantly ridiculed.

Even though my wives reassured me that everything would be fine, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
The thought that my selfishness might lead to them being criticized for the rest of their lives weighed heavily on my mind.

"Wow~ Now we don’t have to keep it a secret anymore! We can show off our big, happy family all we want!"
"Haru, are you really that excited, my little rice cake?"
"Yep!"
"Good. Well, I don’t mind either—taking some maternity leave sounds like a pretty sweet deal, after all."

On the other hand, my wives seemed utterly thrilled.
Winterer, who had taken the day off, and Haru, of course, were buzzing with excitement.

"Everyone’s going to be so surprised, really."
"Of course, they will. I mean, Seol Hayeon is part of the lineup."
"…Ahem. Stop pointing that out. I’m already struggling to focus my magic on hiding my ears."

Sibylla, Kkong, and Hayeon-noona.

"Okay, okay, you two. Don’t stress out our poor Yujin anymore—let’s keep it quiet for now."
"Exactly! Yujin, want to sip some pine needle tea and calm down?"
"Would that even help? My dear husband~ I’ll give you a lap pillow instead. Hehe."@@novelbin@@

Shia, Alice, and my master.

Though their levels of excitement varied, none of them hid their anticipation.
Even though our marriage announcement was right around the corner, they didn’t seem nervous in the slightest.

• "Is it something big?"
• "It’s gotta be what Sibylla mentioned, right?"
• "Another EX-Class Gate??"
• "Damn it, I just bought all the Cheonhwa stocks yesterday."

• "It’s starting."
• "Please, just don’t announce martial law or something crazy about a Gate."
• "Hypnosis Guy spotted."
• "Thanks to Seo Yujin, my sister’s CRPS is cured. Thank you so much."
• "It’s been a minute—when’s he coming out?"
• "Oh, he’s here."

• "What the hell is going on??"
• "Is the world ending?"
• "South Korea is doomed!!!"

• "Just say what it is already!!!"
• "Breaking news: Seo Yujin bows—entire nation panics lol."
• "Damn it, my mom’s retirement fund is all in Cheonhwa stocks!!!"

• "???"
• "Why is he suddenly talking about marriage?"
• "I was working and tuned in late. What’s going on?"
• "We don’t know either, dude."

• "So, it’s like a celebrity apologizing at a restaurant for getting married?"
• "This makes no sense."
• "If he’s announcing a harem, I might understand…."

• "What the—"
• "Eight???"
• "I thought three was pushing it when he talked about marrying all three back in spring, but eight???"
• "Class levels: god-tier."

• "Fine… just do whatever you want…"
• "Damn it, Seo Yujin, even your love life is top-tier patriotism."
• "How does he even handle that many wives at night…?"

• "Dude, your face is already hypnotic enough."
• "Bartender, give me bleach on the rocks."
• "Honestly, just looking at his setup, anyone would fall for him."

• “Consensual marriage isn’t punishable, though?”
• “What the heck is he talking about?”

• “???”
• “Wait, that’s a thing?”
• “Yujin, you don’t even need something like that.”

• “Wait, is he saying he’s going to the military??”
• “S-Class #1, unpaid for two years of service?!”
• “This guy is unreal.”
• “The pinnacle of integrity, for real.”
• “If it were me, I’d dodge without a second thought.”

• “Alright, fine. We get it. You’re upright. Now spill—who are the wives?”
• “If Shia leads the charge, I’m voting for her first.”
• “No way, Aika’s got this in the bag.”
• “Kkong recently came out; she might be in the running too….”

• “What the hell?”
• “Did he marry a 60-year-old grandma?!”
• “Seo Yujin, you absolute madman LOL.”
• “Were you secretly a member of the Grandma Love Club too? Damn it!”

• “What a mad lad….”
• “Well, they look happy, so okay.”
• “Take good care of Hayeon-noona, you hear me?”
• “Make sure to eat plenty of oysters and eel, or whatever.”
