I Lost My Memory and Had Too Many S-Class Girlfriends - Chapter 143
143 – Jeong Se-yeon’s inferiority complex (1)
Inside the Sephirot Clan’s private office.
“… ….”
A woman is sitting at her desk reading her material.
She took a sip of warm coffee as she looked through her data.
She has been working for a long time, so her eyes are very dim.
“…… Ok.”
After gently rubbing her eyes, I stretch out her sulky arms up.
Her whole body muscles are sore as if paralyzed.
Have you been sitting in a chair for too long?
“Shall we rest for a bit?”
I think you’d better take a break.
In order to work efficiently, rest is essential.
Of course, considering this woman’s personality, she’s likely to start working again soon.
“It’s already evening.”
I looked out of her window.
She could see that it was getting dark.
She worked non-stop for hours.
It’s strange that I’m not tired at all like this.
The woman raised her cup of coffee again.
The fragrant aroma of coffee wafted up.
She is soaking up caffeine.
Every corner of the body.
“After…… Will you meet Lee Ji-hyun again tomorrow?”
The woman spoke to herself once.
She slowly reached out and ran her hand through her hair.
The twilight-colored hair reminiscent of the sunset glowed.
The touch of her elegant and smooth hair was transmitted through her fingertips.
It was a hairstyle in which the ends of the long stretched hair were tied up and hung down to one side. It is often called short-lived hair.
‘I have an appointment tomorrow, so shall I go to bed early today?’
The woman shook her cup of coffee, thinking about the meeting tomorrow.
This woman’s name is Jeong Se-yeon.
She is the next heir to the Sephiroth Clan.
Compared to her father, she has many shortcomings, but she is always trying her best.
Perhaps because of her hardworking and sincere personality, she tends to be immersed in her work almost always without taking a break.
…… Of course, she didn’t always have a sincere personality.
Rather, if you take a hard look at Jeong Se-yeon’s appearance when she was young, she was quite an arrogant and spoiled kid.
The eldest daughter of a conglomerate.
Pretty beauty.
Goods piled up like a mountain.
The reputation of the 4 clans, and so on.
In vulgar terms, she was a little girl from a rich family who had nothing to envy.
It was only natural that Jeong Se-yeon was a bit cocky when she was young.
Jeong Se-yeon is the one and only descendant of the Sephiroth.
She said that Jeong Se-yeon is the only bloodline that will carry on the Sephirot in the future.
Thanks to that, she was chosen and educated as her successor from the age of five.
From noble mtl dot com
People around her clung to Jeong Se-yeon and farted at her in order to receive and eat even her little bean curd.
Both children and adults were busy with flattery.
Number of people’s attention has always been directed to Jeong Se-yeon, and Jeong Se-yeon has grown by receiving compliments from people for a long time.
Because of that, one thought could not but sprout in Jeong Se-yeon’s head.
She says she is a different person than others.
How can I explain this?
Shall we say that she is a little superior to others? She
She had an idea close to elitism or a sense of the elect, but she didn’t think it was wrong.
That’s also true Se-yeon Jeong, because she was actually on the very good side compared to her others.
Jeong Se-yeon was a genius.
When ordinary people realize one, Jeong Se-yeon realized three.
It was not enough to awaken his abilities when he was very young, and he surprised the people around him by showing his outstanding application skills.
It was introduced through the Internet and TV with the title of the next-generation prodigy.
People looked up to Jeong Se-yeon with admiring glances, and Jeong Se-yeon took people’s gazes for granted.
For Jeong Se-yeon, people’s eyes were natural.
Jeong Se-yeon is a person who stands at the top.
The person who stands on top is determined from birth.
This is not an area that can be achieved only with hard work and perseverance.
Ordinary people are Jeong Se-yeon’s foundation.
No, they are not just the foundation, but the subordinates that Jeong Se-yeon should lead.
It is not wrong to have no talent or lack of ability.
It is wrong for ordinary people to stand on top.
So I have to stand on top and lead.
That’s my duty.
The thought that had sprouted since childhood began to grow little by little, and soon it was in full bloom.
Whether Jeong Se-yeon’s values are right or wrong, it doesn’t matter now.
Because Jeong Se-yeon, who grew rapidly under the full support of the Sephiroth Clan, was able to be reborn as a talented person second to none.
Her people praised her in front of her, admiring her well-developed figure of Jeong Se-yeon, but in order to parasitize her halo of her Jeong Se-yeon, they praised her to the fullest.
‘It’s also Seyeon.’
‘Have you already reached A rank at that age? That’s great.’
‘Wow. It reminds me of the clan leader when I was young.’
‘The future of the Sephiroth is also secure.’
The compliments that got scabs in her ears.
Even if she pretended not to on the outside, she couldn’t help but grow her nose in her heart.
No matter how obvious it was, it was clear that receiving admiring glances from people was quite enjoyable.
However, it wasn’t long before an incident occurred that shattered Jeong Se-yeon’s pride.
It was the Hunter Academy’s sports day event that made the whole country buzz.
It is a true sword match between Jeong Se-yeon of the Sephirot and Sung Kang-hoon of the Seongssi family.
The confrontation between the bloodlines of conglomerates, which are referred to as the four pillars of Korea, was more than enough to draw people’s attention.
It’s a dream match that I’ve always imagined only in my head.
It is a natural process for people to be interested in something.
It quickly spread through various media outlets and emerged as a hot potato.
It was safe to assume that the entire nation was watching, as each broadcasting station broadcast the showdown everywhere.
It is truly a confrontation between large corporations and large corporations with their pride at stake.
In the case of defeat, it was obvious that the image would be damaged and a humiliating stigma would be stamped on, so the clan members only glanced at Jeong Se-yeon with nervous eyes.
However, unlike the clan members, Jeong Se-yeon was confident.
Aren’t you the second son of a family of surnames at best?
I heard that the person closest to the heir is the eldest son.
In the end, that second son was a loser who failed to gain an edge in the competition for successor.
That’s why Jeong Se-yeon believed in her own victory and had no doubts.
Jeong Se-yeon’s talent, hard work, and pedigree predicted her victory.
Jeong Se-yeon was elated, thinking that she would take this opportunity to clearly show the whole nation how outstanding the successor of the Sephiroth is.
I was bothered by the stigma of being the weakest of the 4 clans.
At this point, I need to clear away the stupid stigma and let people know how terrible the second son of the family name family is.
…… But what about the outcome of the confrontation?
It can be quite unfortunate, but it was completely different from what Jeong Se-yeon thought.
Because Jeong Se-yeon was defeated in a mess. It was an indescribable humiliation.
‘…… No, that’s nonsense I? Did you lose?’
This is really shocking.
It’s hard to come to my senses.
Jeong Se-yeon is the body that will lead the Sephirot in the future.
She couldn’t be defeated by the second son of a mere surname. No, I couldn’t lose. But why did he lose the battle to Naburangi, the second son of the Seong family?
I don’t understand.
No, I don’t want to understand.
If I had been defeated by the eldest son of the Seong family, I wouldn’t have been so humiliated.
Since the eldest son of the surname family had already reached the S rank and was older than Jeong Se-yeon, it was because he acknowledged that ‘yet’ was less than the eldest son of the surname family.
By the way, what about Seong Kang-hun, the second son of the family?
He’s a boy of his age.
On top of that, it’s the same A-Rank talent.
It’s not that the compatibility of abilities is unfavorable.
Why, why, why did you lose?
There is no reason to lose.
I have never thought that I was falling behind my peers.
Compared to the bloodlines of the other 4 major clans, they do not lag behind.
However, the reality is harsh.
No matter what the cause and process, people see and evaluate the result.
If you look at the result alone, the successor of the Sephirot was defeated by the second son of the family name.
That’s all.
‘What should I do, what should I do… ….’
What is this?
I had to win.
I can’t lose, so why…….
The news of Jeong Se-yeon’s miserable defeat spread all over the country, and accordingly, the evaluation of the Sephirot had to be relatively low.
While other representative clans have succeeded in commercialization and amassing astronomical wealth, the Sephirot clan has repeatedly failed in challenging businesses, so the only thing left is the hunter business and talent.
Therefore, Jeong Se-yeon was in a situation where she should never have been defeated.
The only thing left now is the hunter business, but since Jeong Se-yeon, who was later pointed out as the successor of the Sephiroth, was horribly defeated, it was a natural reaction that negative reactions soared like friendly bamboo shoots.
In various parts of the Internet, ‘Jeong Se-yeon is weak.’, ‘This is the successor of the Sephiroth?’ As expected, the surname and coin are strong.’ ‘Jeong Se-yeon was a dog bubble.’
Jeong Se-yeon was bullied for a long time.
There is no talent, there is not enough ability, there are only cheap ones.
A lot of bad words came at Jeong Se-yeon, and Jeong Se-yeon locked herself in her room, holding on to the blanket and sobbing silently.
The whispers of people, the disappointment of his father, the disgrace of the Sephiroth, and so on.
All sorts of things messed with Jeong Se-yeon’s head.
I sobbed alone in my room for several days.
He was disappointed in himself for the first time.
It was a frog in the well.
This is really pathetic.
When are you pretending to be a person from above, and what is this like?
Jeong Se-yeon gritted her teeth and raised her head.
I don’t want to experience this again.
Rather, he decided to move forward with this experience.
How long are you going to wander like an idiot, shedding tears?
Jeong Se-yeon is a direct descendant of the Sephiroth.
You’re the only heir.
‘I won’t lose again.’
I suddenly had an idea.
I’ve been too complacent until now.
I don’t deny the fact that I was too conceited because of the fact that I was a little more talented than others.
Certainly, Jeong Se-yeon was a genius who could not be compared to ordinary people, but Sung Kang-hoon was also a genius who could not be touched.
For a long time, I took it too lightly on Sung Kang-hoon, who was painstakingly crafted by the surname family.
In order not to suffer such a disgraceful defeat again, Jeong Se-yeon needed to work even harder, shedding blood and sweat.
Jeong Se-yeon made a commitment deep in her heart and at the same time endured the pain of sharpening her bones, and began practicing day by day.
Whether it rains, snows or winds…… Repetition of training.
I wondered if I had ever worked this hard since I was born, but somehow I felt refreshed.
Jeong Se-yeon was able to smile in her heart because she knew that the sweat shed now and the blood shed now would help Jeong Se-yeon grow more.
How much time has passed like that?
Jeong Se-yeon was able to become stronger than she was in the past.
She said goodbye to her past, which was held together by pride.
Using her first defeat as a foundation, she has grown splendidly.
Before she knew it, she even graduated from the Hunter Academy.
She returned to the clan with her determination never again to dishonor her father’s name and the honor of the Sephiroth.
Since she was defeated, her clanmates’ gazes on her were burdensome, so she rarely visited the clan until now.
She was in the middle of walking, carefully examining the inside of her clan.
‘Hello?’
Couldn’t it be that a strange woman glanced at Jeong Se-yeon and greeted her with her friendly face?
‘You are the daughter of the clan leader, right? I’ve heard a lot about it.’
For the first time in her life, her dark hair stepped over her eyes.
Her hair, black as ink, stretched all the way down to her shoulder blades, reminiscent of silk.
The woman with her hair, slightly wavy in the middle, swept back once, smiled brightly and showed off a cool smile.
She could have been prejudiced that she was a bit cold-hearted because of her slightly raised eyebrows and cold impression, but even taking that into consideration, I had never seen a pretty-looking woman like her.
As the male clan members who were standing around her quietly smiled, Jeong Se-yeon couldn’t help but look at her with a ridiculous look.
‘My name is Jihyun Lee.’
That woman’s name is Jihyun Lee.
She definitely remembers hearing this a few times.
She once said that her father had found a very good talent. Some say that Lee Ji-hyun, a man with telekinesis who heated up Korea a few years ago, joined the clan.
‘It’s been a while since I joined, but please take good care of me in the future.’
‘Yes.’
…… And this was the beginning of the bad relationship between Jeong Se-yeon and Lee Ji-hyun.
