VOLUME 1 SPOILERS:
<spoiler> I will not fully retell what has already been shown in the manhwa, but I will briefly indicate what you should pay attention to. The novel begins with Taekju catching two criminals (Kim Younghee (female) and Rhee Chuljin (male)) in Busan with his co-worker (the guy with glasses, Yoon Jongwoo). You should pay attention to how Taekju put a handkerchief in Yunghee's mouth to prevent her from committing suicide, and her ring, because in volume 4 this will play a big role. Well, the mission is successful and Taekju returns home by train to catch his mother's birthday, but he is called back to the headquarters. There he sees Director General Lim, under whose supervision he works, as well as 1st Vice Director Cha Munseok (there are 3 deputy directors in total, this will also be discussed in volume 4). Director Lim instructs Taekju to go to Moscow and find a new weapon, codenamed Anastasia, which is being developed by Russia and North Korea. Director Lim mentions that the American spy Morgan was sent to Moscow before, but his mutilated body (it is worth paying attention to the fact that he was found without fingers) was found on the river bank. Director Lim warns of Psih (Psycho) Bogdanov, who may have been linked to Morgan's death. There is nothing left for Taekju, he leaves for Russia, having previously disguised himself as the Japanese Hiro Sakamoto, who works in a company that closely cooperates with Russian company Gazprom. Before the flight, Taekju visits her mother (mother's father, her husband and eldest son were all military men and died during the service, so she is very worried about Taekju and protects him). Since NIS spies are not allowed to reveal their activities even to family members, Taekju also hides from his mother, pretending to be a petty official. He said he was leaving on a business trip. There was a drunken brawler on the plane, so the flight was delayed. At the airport, Taekju was met by employees of Gazprom (but as it turned out later, the real employees of Gazprom disappeared somewhere (this was mentioned in the second half of the novel, but I don’t remember exactly, it seems they were told that Hiro Sakamoto would be very late and they went away for a while)), so he was met by Psih Bogdanov's people pretending to be employees of Gazprom). Everything is the same as in the manhwa. A shootout, Taekju ran into an empty building under construction, Psih's people run after him, etc., then he hears the sound of heels and the door opens in front of his face, he sees a hand and 2 fingers of this hand pierced the eyes of the Taekju pursuer, he was handcuffed to the wall, taken from his shirt to wipe his hand from blood and other fluids. Out of the corner of his eye, the MC notices very expensive crocodile leather shoes and the unique smell of hand cigars, the killer leaves, the police arrive, tells Taekju that they were those who are not happy with the signing of the treaty between Russia and Japan, etc., then Taekju contacts Director Lim, he says that because of this situation, an assistant will be sent to him, and the photo will be sent a little later, it is worth paying attention here. Taekju goes looking for the killer's cigars because he remembers the flavor (they were limited edition and expensive cigars, just like the shoes). Then, at an event on the occasion of the signing of the treaty, Taekju meets that killer in the restroom and panics again (thinks that he hasn’t experienced such fear for a long time, he needs to leave, etc.), the killer looks at him and shouts at him, but the MC quickly leaves, then in the corridor he receives a message from the headquarters without signatures, just a photo that depicts the same killer. A large shadow covers him and he hears a voice behind him: "Oh, it's me." After that, the scene is interrupted and Taekju is already standing in front of the door to his room, where the killer is sitting on the table. The MC notices that he has long legs, very handsome appearance (but he doesn't like it anyway lol). then again everything is like in a manhwa, their conversation and so on, Taekju again received a message from headquarters with another photo, MC thought that 1 photo (with the killer) was a photo of a partner, and 2 photos were a photo of Psih Bogdanov. The killer agrees, says that this is the same Psih, he is very dangerous, you should beware of him, he can be connected with the death of Morgan, etc. When the MC mentioned Anastasia for the first time, ML's eyebrows twitched, it was so quick and subtle that Taekju didn't notice. Taekju notices that since this sick killer talks like that about Psih, then he should definitely be avoided , although he does not yet trust the killer, he trusts the headquarters, so he decided to work with him. The killer introduces himself as Zhenya, Taekju thinks it's a pseudonym. He does not give his name to Zhenya. It is worth noting that all this time the MC is in artificial skin, which repeats the face of Hiro Sakamoto. And when Mc was about to close the door after ML left, he stopped the door with the toe of his shoe and said that it would be interesting to skin Taekju. In the Elevator, ML instructs another man to blow up the hotel. Early the next morning, a hotel worker came to Taekju with breakfast, MC thought it was an apology from the director of Gazprom for his absence from the banquet, then he sees a note with the inscription "Boom" you should remember this note, because then there will be a funny incident). Taekju runs out of the hotel and sees Psih Bogdanov on the street with 2 photos sent by the headquarters. Psih Bogdanov pretended to be a paramedic, the doctors tried to put Tak Ju in an ambulance, but he pushed them away and ran away. Again began the persecution, shooting. A motorcycle drove out onto the road at high speed and almost crushed Taekju's head, they threw him into the car in which Psih was sitting and drove along the river. Zhenya appeared in a helicopter and started shooting, not even caring that he might shoot the MC. The car fell into the river, Taekju strangled Psih and floated to the surface. Zhenya took him to the shore. I also wanted to catch a taxi and leave, but no one took him because of wet clothes and a peeling mask. Zhenya laughed at him and reached out his hand to rip off the artificial skin. MC resisted, but ML succeeded. He rolled his eyes and said something like: "It's more than...". Taekju noticed that Zhenya was too surprised for someone who had already seen his photo, but did not attach any importance to this (this was not directly mentioned in the novel, but most likely Zhenya had not seen his face before). Then Zhenya gave Taekju a card, allegedly because the persecution would intensify, answered the phone and, without explaining anything to MC, left. MC was left alone, all wet, could not catch cars. Another scene began. Taekju found a hotel near the river, rented the most expensive room (and even it was with cockroaches and dust), called his mother, paid for the call with Zhenya's card, explained to her that he had lost his phone (in fact, all his things were blown up in the hotel, so he now can't even get in touch with headquarters). Then he went to a cafe, paid for the order with a card, but it turned out that it was stolen (although everything was fine before that, apparently, Zhenya did something with the card after 1 payment), so the police arrested him on the spot. Zhenya came, the situation was settled. There was no more talk about the card. Taekju noticed that Zhenya was being followed by someone from the street. Zhenya went out, returned after 3 minutes, but he was no longer wearing a fur coat. Taekju immediately remembered the moment when Zhenya poked the man's eyes with his fingers and wiped his hands on his shirt. Zhenya smiled, realizing what the MC was thinking. Then he took out invitations to a banquet at the Bogdanovs' mansion. Taekju asked if it was normal to hold a banquet if a family member (Psih Bogdanov) died by drowning in the river, to which Zhenya replied that his body was not found in the river, which means Psih is still alive. Then he showed documents that list all of Anastasia's developers, but all of them, except for members of the Bogdanov family, were dead. Taekju realized that the Bogdanovs and the Russian government got rid of other developers, so he agreed to go to the banquet, because there you can find information about Anastasia, although he doubted because he could not discuss plans with the headquarters. Then Zhenya told him to follow him, they went into an abandoned bookstore, Zhenya entered a certain code number on the old phone and a secret passage opened in the vault with many types of weapons. The scene changes again. MC and ML are driving in a car to the posh mansion of the Bogdanov family. Taekju is unhappy that he had to pretend to be the driver, he had to go around the car and open the door to Zhenya. Zhenya tells him that there are only 2 ways to get inside the mansion without being invited: the 1st way is to pretend to be the driver/escort, and the 2nd way is to pretend to be the lover, and if Taekju doesn't like the 1st option they can try the 2nd one. Taekju ignored those words. They went inside, Taekju knocked out the waiter, entered the hall with a tray of drinks. He met Zhenya, and he told the MC that he looked good in a waiter costume and said that although it was crowded, there were no people. Taekju wanted to ask what that meant, but didn't. In the eyes of the MC, there was a special lens developed by NIS that allows you to see some information about a public person that you look at for more than 3 seconds. For example, he looked at the man, and the information "Lomonosov Valery Antonovich, President of Russia" appeared. Then he saw the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia (all have fictitious names). Then Vissarion Romanovich Bogdanov (the head of the family and director of Gazprom), his eldest son Vladimir Vissarionovich Bogdanov and the second son Vasily Vissarionovich Bogdanov appeared on the wheelchair (the 2nd son is the best friend of the President of Russia, but the 1st son also communicates closely with him). Taekju asked Zhenya if Psih Bogdanov was Vissarion's illegitimate child, how did it happen that such a bandit is a member of this "royal" family. Zhenya answered with a serious face that Psih was formally a civil servant, well versed in the military industry, resourceful, absolutely everyone in the underworld and in the arms trade knows him. Taekju thought about it, but came to his senses when Zhenya told him that he had just seen Psih go up to the top floor with the ministers. Taekju immediately left, pretending to take out the garbage and knocked out the guard by putting a trash can on his head. He stepped aside and saw that of all the rooms on the 3rd floor, only 1 had a light on. Taekju's wristwatch had a long strong fishing line that is used for catching tuna, he released the line, hooked it to the wall and began to climb to the 3rd floor. The fishing line suddenly broke when he was already near the window. Taekju managed to grab onto the window sill, but because of the fall, he entered the wrong room (not the one in which the light was on). The MC had a communicator in his ear, he heard Zhenya's voice: "Where are you?". He wanted to answer, but Zhenya suddenly switched the communicator and Taekju heard the voices of 3 men. They discussed progress on the SS-29 intercontinental ballistic missile, defects that experts from North Korea have found, about the Russian criminal group Zontsev (Sonchef) that is waiting for an expert to fix the problems, they talked about how silence from American spies so far , but we need to get rid of those dastardly rats, and America couldn't even take Morgan's body and so on. Then the sound switched back to Zhenya, who said that Psih had left the room. Taekju asked how he managed to convey the voices of the ministers, to which Zhenya replied that the youngest daughter of Vissarion Bogdanov, Olga, gave Zhenya a tour of the estate and he threw the listeners into the rooms, taking advantage of the chance. Then Taekju thought that Zhenya's personality is much more interesting than Anastasia, because he was invited to a banquet, had a tour, and so on. MC asked ML where he is now, Zhenya was in the basement control room and said that he saw Taekju almost fall from the 3rd floor. There was a hint of laughter in Zhenya's voice, Taeju began to look around and saw a small camera and immediately raised his middle finger in her direction, after which a loud laugh came from the communicator. Then ML said that now Psih is calling someone and he can let Taekju listen to the call if he has time to go to the landline phone on the 2nd floor in 8 seconds. Taekju was in time and picked up the phone, he thought that Psih would be talking to a representative of the Seongchef criminal group that the ministers had mentioned earlier in the conversation. He wanted clues about a North Korean expert who was coming to fix the SS-29 missile. During the call, it was mentioned that a North Korean expert would be in Moscow the day after tomorrow, he would pretend to be a Chinese citizen and be extremely careful not to be spotted by American intelligence officers. As the conversation was drawing to a close, Taekju's communicator suddenly began to beep so loudly that the MC dropped to his knees from a headache. Of course, Psih and Sonchef heard it too. Immediately there was a commotion, shots were heard. Taekju ran, scattering the bodyguards along the way, he was able to run into the room and then he realized that this was the room in which the light was on, but he was disappointed because the room turned out to be empty (it is worth paying attention, later in the novel they will tell why the light was on and it was empty). He heard Psiha's voice outside the door, which he heard on the landline phone, and next to him he smelled the familiar scent of cigars. In general, Zhenya grabbed him with "strong hands" and led him along a secret passage in that room. When they were leaving, a bodyguard saw them, but Zhenya put both hands into his mouth and began to pull in different directions, as a result, Taekju turned away, because the characteristic sound of tearing flesh sounded. He looked at Zhenya again, and he looked at Taekju, then he looked at the MC's shirt. The MC immediately understood what it meant, said "No" and started to step back, but ML still reached out and touched the MC's shirt. As a result, the MC had to take off his already blood-stained shirt and he threw it in Zhenya's face. MC asked ML why he didn't wear a headscarf, to which ML replied "Why bother?". They ran out into the street, smashed the window of a random car, pushed the driver out, climbed into the car and drove away. The shots stopped for a moment, so Taekju thought that the owner of the car, who is now sitting in fear in the back seat, is a big shot that even the Bogdanov family cannot touch, but the shots began again. Out of the corner of his eye, the MC saw the eldest son of the Bogdanovs, Vladimir, who also shot at the car from the window. When they drove up to the large metal gate, the owner of the car shouted loudly that they would die, since the gate was forbidden, but suddenly the gate began to open. But the owner of the car continued to scream even after they passed the gate. Suddenly a shot rang out and the screaming stopped. Taekju looked at Zhenya with a gun in his hand. Zhenya calmly said: "... Noisy." The scene has changed. They returned to the hotel where Taekju had called and checked in with Zhenya's card. Because of this map, they could not stay there for long, as they could be tracked down. Zhenya loosened his tie, took off his shirt and other clothes, under which a strong body was hidden. He was in the bathroom and was about to take a shower. ML went underwater, his ivory hair slightly darkened by the water. Zhenya has broad shoulders, beautiful breasts, long fingers, and her gaze resembles that of a predator, an alligator that has just tasted blood. Water trickles down her chest with a tattoo of a bird of prey. Zhenya's lips curved. At this time, Taekju placed his hand in cold water with ice. Even after the first meeting with Zhenya, the doctor had to put a cast on MC's arm, but he refused and, on the contrary, I strain my arm too much, so the pain intensified. Patrol has been stepped up in the city. Zhenya left the bathroom, Taekju noticed that he did not dry off and put clothes on his wet body. There were no bathrobes in this cheap hotel, but Taekju thought that it would be less strange to go out of their baths without clothes, especially since they are both men, and that it was funny how Zhenya pretended to be modest. Then MC asked ML a question: "Who are you really?". ML replied, "Didn't your boss tell you everything?". Taekju replied that he hadn't been told much about the mission, so tell me everything without missing a single detail. Zhenya asked if this was an interrogation. Taekju replied that it was just an acquaintance because Zhenya still hadn't introduced himself properly. Zhenya smiled. Taekju delivered a speech: You are 100% Russian, you don’t have an accent, how did you get your own helicopter, why aren’t you wanted after a shootout in the city center, why is such a privileged Russian like you helping us in this operation? Zhenya replied that he was first and foremost a merchant, and only then a Russian. Taekju could not believe that he wanted to betray the country (Taekju thought that although he himself was not a patriot and would not give his life for the country, but betraying the homeland is already a completely different level), endanger both himself and the country. Zhenya said that the benefit of this mission lies in the drawings of Anastasia. Even if the development of Anastasia is not successful now, after receiving the drawings, Zhenya will be able to create a new Anastasia based on them and then sell them to special customers like China or the USA. Some of Taekju's doubts disappeared after this conversation, but the psychological distance increased.Taekju still did not fully understand Zhenya's behavior and doubted him. Zhenya said that the first impression of him might not have been their best, but doesn't the MC hate him too much? Taekju said he would remain vigilant. Then he took out a recorder, on which he recorded the voice of Psih and said that with the help of AI he would generate a speech for Sanchef to learn more about the engineer from North Korea. Zhenya furrowed his brows. He asked the MC if he knew that the mafia had tattoos on his body and that ignorance shortened his life. If the MC touches anyone from Sanchef, then everyone who has a tattoo, which is a sign of belonging to this mafia organization, will become his enemies. Taekju said he didn't care. Zhenya asked what he believes in, since he is so sure of himself? Taekju took out his hand with a bruise from the bucket of water (the bruise from their first meeting, when Zhenya grabbed his hand and Taekju was surprised how strong his grip was) and said to Zhenya: "I met a rather useful monster." Although it was not a compliment, Zhenya squared his shoulders, raised his chin noticeably and said: "Well, if so ...". Kwon Taekju felt embarrassed by this scene, he handed Zhenya the phone and exchanged numbers. Then the scene changed again. MC and ML called Sonchef and changed their voice to Psiha's voice using the device. They made their way to the base, shooting the guards along the way. Zhenya stained his hands with blood again and was about to wipe his hands with MC's shirt, but he quickly took out a white stream from his pocket and gave it to Zhenya. They entered the base and one of the leaders Sonchef Boris was waiting for them in the hall (and behind him were 6 big men). He wasn't surprised when he saw it wasn't Psih. He said that he understood because of yesterday's skirmish in the Bogdanovs' mansion. Boris turned to Zhenya and asked: "Why are you doing this?" Zhenya replied: "I thought it would be interesting to watch." Boris: "You are reckless" Zhenya: "Isn't that courage?" Taekju: "Let's stop talking, tell me where Anastasia is." Boris: "Anastasia? I don't understand why you are asking me this question" Taekju thought that SS-29 and Anastasia are 2 different weapons, but there is a big chance that Boris is deceiving him. Taekju: "should I call it SS29?" Boris: "Are you brave or naive if you thought I'd give you an answer?" Immediately after that, a shootout began, a cloud of dust rose (there were many bags of building material in the room, etc.). Then Taekju dropped the smoke bomb and put on glasses that allowed him to see better in such an environment. Zhenya and Boris were nowhere to be seen, but then the MC noticed a silhouette under 2 meters tall, sitting on a pile of bodies, this is Zhenya. And next to the MC's stomach, a blade passed, but he managed to stop it and shoot. Judging by the groaning voice, it was Boris. Taekju noticed that his hand was bleeding heavily and wanted to attach a handkerchief, but then remembered that he had already given it to Zhenya. Then he began to unbutton the buttons on his shirt, but he could not do it with one hand, Zhenya came up to him and helped him take off his shirt. At the end, MC shook off ML's hand and bound the shirt around his bleeding hand. Boris wounded his leg and slowly crawled towards the gun, but the MC beat him to it, put Boris in the stud and put him in handcuffs, then he pressed his foot on Boris and the chair overturned. However, Boris looked at Taekju and only laughed even when he was kicked. Then the MC took out the keys from his pocket and put them in Boris's mouth, sealed his mouth with tape and then began to hit him in the face with kclak until it swelled up. He asked where exactly one could find an engineer from North Korea. He removed the tape from Boris's mouth, and blood, mixed with saliva, and even teeth flowed out. After that, Boris spat blood into Taeju's eyes; Teju did not wipe his face, but took the knife that was lying on the floor. Zhenya watched this scene with interest. Taeju then approached Boris and told a story about a certain tribe whose members cut the skin off the face of their enemies alive. He brought the knife to Boris's forehead and began to cut the skin with a thin layer, Boris screamed loudly and thought that he was experiencing such fear for the first time, and Zhenya's interest reached its peak, he felt happy watching this. But Taekju put away the knife, saying that it was a pity to kill him. Then Zhenya added: "It was very sexy, you were quite dangerous, I have a boner." Taekju got angry, grabbed Zhenya by the collar of his shirt and held it to his face, saying that next time he would gladly skin his face, but then he noticed his creepy eyes and cold skin, he again thought that ML looked like a predator, reptile, he is a destructive and deranged person, MC instincts tell him to stay away from ML. The scene now is a train from Beijing to Moscow. Zhenya and Taekju were in a 1st class room, a large carriage with a private bathroom (2nd class for the middle class, 3rd class, one might say, for the poor), but Taekju could not sleep because of the constant moans next to him. Taekju tried to sleep, counted sheep, but it was no use. He lifted the body from the bed and looked the other way. It was dark there, but MC could see 2 silhouettes and Zhenya's eyes glowing in the dark. Their eyes met, but ML was not at all embarrassed. Taekju could see that Zhenya was in clothes, and a blonde-haired stewardess who led them to their room was sitting on him. Taekju could see the abnormally sized & glistening with lube cock appearing and disappearing as Zhenya lifted the girl by the waist. Taekju looked down at his cock again and wondered how the girl was taking in such a big thing. Taekju continued to stare at them, wondering how far they could go despite being watched. It was dark, but it seemed to the MC that a smile blossomed on Zhenya's lips. Zhenya did not caress the girl in any way, but only drove his penis into her. In general, the girl reached an orgasm and screamed, but Taekju was watching Zhenya. When Zhenya ejacuated, he raised his body and wrinkled his forehead. MC thought that ML is always calm under any circumstances, but now he is so easily succumbing to his primal instincts. Zhenya pulled out a big fat penis, from which white sperm dripped, Taekju watched this and he became embarrassed. Also, he thought that no man in the world would want to accept another man who "openly marks territory" in his space (lol). Taekju got up and opened the window to air the room, Zhenya went to the bathroom (nothing else was mentioned about the girl, apparently she left). It was cold, and when Zhenya came out, he asked why he opened the window if he looked like he would freeze to death. The MC got angry because he opened the window because of ML, and he is acting so carefree. The smell has dissipated. Zhenya asked why Taekju was looking at them if he usually avoids Zhenya. Taekju angrily replied, "Why should I? High-quality porn is shown for free." Zhenya nodded and straightened his shoulders again, chin up, he thought it was a compliment. ML added that it really was top notch and that MC knows how to say nice things. Then the MC thought that ML had a problem with skills and socialization since he couldn't tell the difference between sarcasm and praise. They learned from Boris when the North Korean engineer will board the train, as well as information that he will pretend to be a Chinese tourist, but they could not find out the location of the SS-29 storage, but if you follow Hong Yowook (engineer's name), he himself will bring them to the rocket. As Boris said, the engineer boarded the train in the 2nd class, but MC and ML did not attack him immediately, since Psih Bogdanov's people could already follow him. If these people find out that the engineer is being followed, they will cut off contact with him and then SS-29 will not be found. Taekju asked Zhenya what happened to Boris, Zhenya replied that he had locked him up and he would not be able to run away and talk about what happened. Zhenya was going to go out and have breakfast and then spy on the engineer, but when he saw Taekju in headphones with a exited expression, dialing a phone number, he decided to stay and see who this man who looked like a piece of wood would talk to. Taekju's mother immediately answered the call, they began to communicate in Korean, and Zhenya stood behind and listened to their conversation, despite not understanding a word they say. Zhenya noticed that Taekju's tone was very friendly, and his voice was soft, and the voice coming from the headphones was female. Zhenya took out his phone and turned on the translator, the word that was most often repeated was "mother". ML chuckled. When the call ended, Zhenya called Taekju mama's boy, and Taekju called Zhenya a jerk. Taekju became interested in what Zhenya's childhood was like, since he called him a mama's boy (sissy) because of such a simple conversation, he got angry and unconsciously started a conversation that it would be better for him to be a mama's boy and lie to his mother, because she is very worried about him and if suddenly she finds out what he really does, she will die on the spot, he added that she still thinks that he is working with documents in the local administration. When he realized that he had said too much, he fell silent. Zhenya asked why the MC abruptly fell silent, Taekju replied that this was an unnecessary conversation. Zhenya said that they had plenty of time to talk about it, but Taekju interrupted him and told him to take a book rather than stick his nose into his boring family affairs. Taekju added that he is not interested in conversations when only one side speaks, and if Zhenya is so bored, then he can bring a woman back again. Zhenya went out, and Taekju was again frightened by his gaze. At the border between Mongolia and China, the train stopped, it was necessary to pass a migration check. Taekju was nervous, since they had a lot of various devices and weapons hidden with them and in the car, Zhenya remained calm. Taekju, looking at Zhenya, also tried to keep a cool face. MC and ML were sitting in a small room and there was so little space that when they were sitting Zhenya's leg was caught between Taekju's 2 legs and ML's knee was almost against MC's genitals. Taekju asked if ML wanted to move his leg, ML replied that it was not his fault that he had long legs. Taekju wanted to sleep (he didn't get enough sleep because of the noise from Zhenya and the girl's sex) and yawned, Zhenya smiled and said: "Well, isn't that cute?" The examiners came and checked the documents. This time, Taekju again pretended to be Japanese, but not Hiro Sakamoto (he is considered missing after the terrorist attack on the hotel). Everything went well. Then they began to inspect the car, and which remained MC and ML. We checked the bed, linen, shower head and other such places, but at that moment, Taekju noticed that one of the public security officers was staring at him, but the MC tried to remain calm. Then the examiners asked the MC and ML to stand against the wall and raise their hands, it was unexpected, but they agreed so as not to cause a conflict once again. They quickly checked Zhenya, ran his hand over the shin, buttocks, pockets, back, stomach, etc., as is usually done. And Taekju was approached by an examiner (not the one who had previously stared at him). And instead of checking everything quickly, like Zhenya, he began to slowly check every corner of the body, and then he became bolder and even grabbed his groin, massaged his buttocks and all that. The MC noticed that another examiner was looking at him again. During such a "thorough" check, Taekju thought he heard Zhenya's laughter. MC tried not to pay attention, but could not stand it. At first, he muttered "hands..." in Korean, but no one understood him, and he shouted "you bunch of fucking faggots" and raised his fist at the examiner, but did not hit him. The examiners, frightened, left. Zhenya smiled and provocatively said: “I think he really liked you. You have a beautiful waist and curves, but why don’t you pretend that you can’t push him away? You have accumulated” (or something similar). Taekju replied that these are not the words that should come from the lips of an equally handsome guy. Zhenya: "Ah. Do you like me a little?" Taekju: "Don't say such weird things." The train started moving again, Taekju was sitting and reading a book, and Zhenya answered the phone and went out into the corridor. Taekju became a little curious, because Zhenya never says anything about himself, and even he does not fully share information about the mission. The MC stood up and saw Zhenya, who was standing far enough away that the conversation could not be heard. He didn't have the usual smile he shows Taekju, his expression was quite serious. Taekju thought and missed the moment when he could return. At that moment, their eyes met. Zhenya looked at Taekju for a while, and then smiled a fake smile. Zhenya returned to the room, but said nothing. It seemed to Taekju that he continued to run on Zhenya's palms. All this time, Yowook (a North Korean engineer) left the carriage room only a couple of times, and then only for 5-10 minutes. Zhenya was able to install cameras in the engineer's room and bathroom, so they didn't have to watch him so closely. However, another problem arose, Zhenya brought the girl back at night and had sex with her, preventing Taekju from falling asleep. Yesterday he had sex with a flight attendant in charge of 1st class, and today he is in charge of 2nd class. He saw her in the 2nd class compartment when he was following the engineer. Taekju opened the book to distract himself, but during sex, the flight attendant touched the open bottle of vodka with her hand, and some of the contents spilled onto the MC's pants. Taekju looked up and met ML's eyes again, who was kissing the girl at the time. ML lifted the corners of his mouth and, sticking out his tongue, licked the girl's upper lip. ML noticed that the MC was also looking at him and smiled in satisfaction again. Immediately after that, Zhenya transferred the girl's body to the table, at which Taekju was sitting. He thrust into the woman so hard that the table began to shake. Taekju was embarrassed and when he decided to say something to them ("hey ..."), he was immediately interrupted by a loud, prolonged moan of a woman. At that moment, Zhenya pulled the girl's body so that her upper part of her clothes fell off, and her chest was exposed. Taekju immediately turned his head to the other side, but the afterimage of beautiful firm female breasts with fair skin remained in his memory. MC closed his eyes, he felt that it became quieter, and a specific smell spread around the room. Taekju thought that they had already ejaculated and opened his eyes, he looked at Zhenya's softened face, but ML suddenly pulled the woman's body to him sharply. Taekju looked at her breasts again and quickly went to the bathroom. He stepped into the shower without even taking off his clothes and turned on the cold water. He was very excited, but tried to remain rational. Even cold water did not reduce his lust, he unzipped his fly, and pre-cum was already dripping from the penis, the nipples stood up from the cold and arousal, his eyes clouded, his knees buckled, and he began to finish without even touching the penis. He tried to bite his lip to keep from making noise, but he groaned anyway. He took off his wet clothes, took a shower and came to his senses. When he left, Zhenya was standing in front of the door. Taekju was embarrassed, but then he thought that masturbation is nothing compared to what Zhenya does, so there is nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. He wanted to wipe himself off, but in the end he decisively and quickly walked naked past Zhenya, but he could not reach his place, ML blocked his path with mocking eyes and a grin. What followed was a dialogue that I didn't quite understand. But something like this. Taekju: "Are you sorry?" Zhenya: "I'm sorry for getting this every time?" (Are we talking about sex???) But taekju saw that Zhenya's face didn't even show regret, but rather a smirk. Taekju walked past him and lay down on the bed, but then remembered that he was naked and wearing underpants. But he wasn't particularly embarrassed since they were both guys. He again thought that Zhenya did not show his body either during sex with those women, or after a shower, and this was strange and suspicious. Zhenya put his ankle in his underpants and was about to put them on, but stopped because of the eyes watching him, he turned his head towards Zhenya and also began to look at him while putting on his underpants. Zhenya unexpectedly asked the MC a question: "How about trying this with a man?". And at that time, he looked at Taekju's chest. The MC noticed this and quickly pulled on the clothes and replied that he didn't even want to imagine it. Then Zhenya said (didn’t quite understand it) something like “Are you in a bad mood? When the dark-haired man yawned, he looked cute (this is a moment with a yawn before checking the migration service, as I understand it, but the meaning of the sentence is still not very clear) Taekju thought that Zhenya wanted to annoy him and said: "Stop making me angry, this is not funny." MC sat in front of the screen and began to watch the engineer, during these days there was no contact with the Bogdanovs. ML put glasses of cognac in front of him and MC and started smoking a cigar, then he handed it to Taekju and said to try it with brandy, it tastes better. Taekju took it and lit it. Zhenya took a new cigar and said: "I wonder if you are one of "those"?" Taekju: "What?" Zhenya: "I thought that you can't see a naked woman, since you got up and left." Taekju was indignant and said that he did not understand how Zhenya could misunderstand him so much, he likes women and even if the world collapses and only men survive floor, he would never look at their holes.Then ML asked what MC's type was. The MC asked why he was asking. ML replied, "Won't it be unpleasant if I seduce the girl you like?" Taekju replied that Zhenya was a vile bastard, but then added that he liked women with big breasts and hips, and fat women were better than skinny ones. Zhenya said that he had such an obvious and banal taste, Taekju replied that it was better than no taste. As I understand it, Zhenya said that there is just no taste. Taekju replied that he didn't want to hear criticism from a guy like ML. Then Zhenya said something unexpected: "I hate sticky women. It's only fun when you do it once, but having sex with the same person more than once is exhausting." Taekju thought that such a guy has no chastity. Taekju himself is fine with those who prefer easy relationships, one-night stands, etc., but he wouldn't talk about his erratic adventures to save face. He asked Zhenya if he had a permanent partner. The answer is no. This was expected for Taekju, he doubted that Zhenya would be able to build a normal relationship with sincere love, he considered Zhenya a little bit pitiful. Zhenya added that perhaps someday he will have such a person, if he is strong and rebellious and can not break under the conditions when Zhenya takes him in his hands and squeezes him with force, this will be the icing on the cake. Taekju thought that a man like Zhenya would not waste his time to create a relationship with 1 person, he thought about his future as well and realized that his situation is not much different, because he will not be able to marry, since no woman does not want a husband who deceives her about his work, often goes on business trips. Taekju's mother asked him to marry and have children, but he will not be able to grant her wish. Zhenya got bored talking about women (especially since the MC gave short answers) and he changed the subject: "I heard that Koreans do not leave their parents' house even as adults?" Taekju did not answer, then Zhenya added "You often call her and inform her of your every move." MC asked why ML is so interested. ML replied that if the MC admits that he is a mama's boy, then ML will no longer ask questions. Taekju sighed and replied "that's not true, (answer to Zhenya's question about moving from her parents' house), it's just that my mother is a special case." He never told anyone about the family situation, not even Director Lim (boss). Not at all because he was drunk, but for some reason he wanted to tell Zhenya about this, thinking that this was due to the fact that they would not see each other again after the mission was completed. He said that his grandfather (mother's father), father (mother's husband) and elder brother (mother's son) were military men and all died during the service. He added that accidents often happen in Korea, so he told his mother that he would not drive, chose a safe job as an official. His mother is very protective of him, because he is her only surviving blood relative. After the death of her husband, she was depressed, but after the death of her older brother MC, his mother could not even sleep. Taekju got a little drunk and laughed. After laughter, Zhenya's face hardened and he uttered the phrase: "Everyone will die one day." Taekju thought that Zhenya wanted to comfort him in such a strange way. The MC was interested in ML's way of thinking, his actions, emotions and words, he wanted to know more about how ML grew up, about his family, about what kind of parents he had, since he became so "inferior". The glass of alcohol was empty, Zhenya was lost in his thoughts, Taekju tapped the glass on the table, and only then Zhenya said "Oh" and poured tequila. Taekju said "it's pity there's no lemon". The Zhenya laughed and replied that if he had known in advance that he liked lemons, he would have found a lemon and called the girl. Zhenya smiled and touched MC's collarbone. The MC then asked ML to talk about himself, family, interests, etc. Zhenya said that he had many siblings, so he didn't have to please his parents. When he is bored, he calls girls and has sex with them, then he looked at the MC with a satisfied expression and added that voyeurism and masturbation are not on his list of interests. Taekju gave ML a tight smile and asked if ML's parents knew what he was up to? That he kills people who insulted him in any way. Zhenya replied that there was a misunderstanding and he does not beat innocent people, only if it is not self-defense. Taekju replied that it was not self-defense, but over-defense. ML replied that it was self-defense and that if he were weaker, then he himself would die, not them. Then they changed the subject. Taekju asked why ML is getting into this mission if he already has so much money. ML replied that money is not superfluous. The MC asked, "Are you that crazy about money? You're going to die someday anyway, and your country will be endangered." Zhenya: "I didn't know you were so interested in me." Taekju: "It's because it's the first time I see such a crazy person." Zhenya: "I do it because it's fun." Then Zhenya got up, the moon was shining and his blond hair sparkled. His hair is too pale for yellow and too bright for white, middle. Taekju did not take his eyes off Zhenya and asked if he dyed his hair or if it was hereditary hair color. The MC noticed that there aren't many blondes in Russia. ML replied that there was no such hair in his pedigree anymore, it was a mutation. He asked if the MC wanted to touch the hair. MC refused. Zhenya smiled and leaned back. It's already starting to get light. Zhenya asked if the MC would pour more alcohol, he agreed, mentioning that he had never been drunk before, because he did not want to be defenseless. The rest of the time they were silent and just drank one glass after another. Taekju wanted to get Zhenya drunk. Sometimes when they were drinking, they made stupid jokes, banged on the table, laughed like crazy. Taekju even opened the window and started screaming. He said that if Director Lim saw him now, he would be shocked, but there was no answer. He looked at Zhenya, who was sleeping, sitting on a chair with his arms crossed. MC pointed his finger at ML's eye, but he didn't wake up. The MC smiled and muttered, "Is that all? The young master is still a boy." The thought that Taekju was able to drink more than ML made him ecstatic. He drank another glass of vodka and fell asleep right on the floor. After a while Zhenya woke up. He looked at Taekju with an emotionless look, took out a special tobacco knife (tobacco pipe tool) and cut off the already burned part of the cigar (remember, I told you to pay attention to the fact that Morgan's corpse had no fingers??? Haha). He then looked at MC and missed the hand extended towards ML. He gently ran his fingers along Taekju's hand, turned his head, and then lifted his ring finger and pressed it between the blades of the knife. A faint smile broke out on his face. Taekju woke up, his head hurt from alcohol, he got up from the floor and complained that Zhenya had not even removed the empty bottles of alcohol with him and had not transferred him from the floor to the bed. Zhenya was nowhere to be seen, MC got up and went to the bathroom, but the sound of water was heard there. MC thought it was ML and sat on the bed waiting. He fell asleep again, dreaming that Zhenya came out of the bathroom, went to the sleeping Taekju and said "Глупый Заинька" (the second word [자인카], [Zainka] is russian word, it means "bunny" and the first word [glupiy] was written in korean, but I decided to write It in russian, it means "silly/dummy"). Then he took Taekju by the ring finger and a clicking sound began to be heard in the ears of the sleeping MC, the sound of a knife blade, which Zhenya applied to Taekju's finger. The MC immediately woke up screaming "...my God!". Everything around was still empty, the sound of pouring water from the bathroom continued to be heard. The MC looked at his trembling hand, all fingers were fine. he did not believe in prophetic dreams, but this dream seemed strange to him. It was breakfast time, Taekju was trying to get up but he noticed a boner. Taekju was in shock, he had a nightmare in which his crazy partner cuts off his fingers. Besides, only yesterday he masturbated, and now he has a boner and had a nocturnal emission. MC thought that if Zhenya saw him now, he would laugh at him all the time, so MC decided to cool off in the shower. The sound of water came from the bathroom, the MC had deja vu, he thought he was dreaming again. He thought that Zhenya might be in the bathroom, but just in case, he picked up a handgun and went to the door. Suddenly the front door opened (into the room, not the bathroom) and Zhenya entered. Taekju winced. Zhenya asked what the MC was doing, MC nodded towards the bathroom and replied that there was someone there. The sound of water stopped. Taekju pointed his gun at the door. Zhenya silently watched him, and then went to the door and opened it. Suddenly, a woman's voice was heard. The girl thanked Zhenya for being able to take a shower. She came out of the bathroom and Zhenya hugged her waist, pulling her to him, she hugged him back. Then Zhenya led her back into the bathroom and closed the door, moans began to come from the cabin. Taekju threw the gun on the bed and took the sandwich from the table, he thought Zhenya had bought it for the girl but ate it anyway. The moans made Taekju's cock start to get up again, so he opened the window to let the noise of the rails drown out other sounds and press his cock down with a pillow. It turned out that the woman's name is Louise, she is a tourist from France and travels, enjoying the last moments of her freedom before the wedding, which will take place in a week (she does not really cheat in the usual sense of the word, she has already agreed with her fiancé, he is also now with someone before their marriage). Louise woke up late in the evening, took Zhenya by the arm and asked him to go to a restaurant with her. To Taekju's surprise, Zhenya agreed easily. Taekju thought that Zhenya really liked Louise because he had sex with her more than 1 time, but they still continue to communicate. Louise returned, Zhenya was not with her, Taekju was reading a book. Louise approached the MC and they started a dialogue, they discussed books and authors. Louise then asked to borrow the book and told Taekju that, as strange as it may sound, women like men who are "indifferent to the opposite sex." Taekju ignored her. Zhenya came. Louise hugged Taekju and kissed his neck, MC just smiled. They drank, everyone got a little drunk and suddenly Zhenya asked: "How abou three of us do "it" together?". The MC frowned and looked at Zhenya, Louise took Taekju's hand and said that she always wanted to try this one day. Zhenya and Louise encouraged Taeju to take part in a threesome. Zhenya said that MC is not a monk, so why does he hesitate. Louise seduced Taekju in every possible way, but he only looked at ML all this time. He understood that ML was provoking him and that ML was sure that MC would refuse, but MC thought that a lot of disappointing things had happened lately, so he didn't really mind relaxing through sex. In addition, he knew that even if he refused now, Zhenya might think of something else, so he specifically planned to do "it" as quickly as possible and finally get rid of these two. Taekju started to unbutton his shirt and said he would be first. Zhenya made a surprised expression, said "Oh?" and stepped aside. Louise sat on Taekju's lap, it was her first time with 2 men, she thought she was lucky because both men were very handsome. She had been trying to draw Taekju's attention to herself for a long time, but he ignored her in this regard, so she was very surprised when he accepted Zhenya's proposition. She put her arm around the MC's neck and he carried her to the bed. Taekju whispered in her ear, "you'll regret you got me into this, I have bad manners." He brought his cock to her poosay, she grabbed his hips. He introduced a cock inside with absolutely no foreplay. Zhenya smiled and thought that even he was not so ruthless, although he practically does not do foreplay before sex, he still caresses their breasts and waits for lubrication to appear in order to get more pleasure, human sex is different from animal and so on. He was very surprised (I remind you that Taekju did it this way in order to quickly get rid of Zhenya and Louise). Louise let out moans of pain and pleasure, Taekju's body became wet and shiny with sweat, his brows furrowed, his breath hitched. All this time, Zhenya was looking at the MC, he was watching the movements of the hips, his eyes did not leave Taekju's buttcheeks, which tightened when he pounded into Louise. Zhenya drank alcohol, he got drunk and thought it was a good sight. He continued to look at Taekju, the way his body trembled, his back, the way he groaned, even biting his lip. Zhenya justified his interest in Taekju by saying that it is more like a sport than sex. He was so carried away by the spectacle that he even forgot about alcohol. ML noticed a bead of sweat running down Taekju's chin and thought that if licked, it would taste rich and salty. ML started watching the black eyes of the MC. Then he tilted his body forward to look at the MC even more closely, not missing a single detail: broad shoulders, thin waist, long proportionate limbs. Then he lowered his gaze: sweat-drenched back, firm thighs and buttocks. Zhenya thought that he wanted to grab his asscheeks and squeeze them with all his might. Then he moved his tenacious gaze to the shaded part (he was trying to see his anus, lol). Zhenya felt a tingling in his groin, he held an empty glass in his hand, but did not want to be distracted. He tried to memorize every single detail about Taekju he saw: furrowed brows, curled toes, lips, moans, and so on. A line from the novel: "If Zhenya "looked" not with his eyes, but with his tongue, then the whole of Taekju would be saturated with saliva." Taekju began to ejaculate and let out a low moan. Zhenya, intoxicated with alcohol and the scene in front of his eyes, instinctively reached for Taekju's buttocks, not even realizing that his hand was reaching for the MC. As soon as he touched the skin on his buttock with his fingertips, the MC grabbed his hand. Zhenya came to his senses only when he saw Taekju breathing heavily with a displeased expression on his face. ML looked at his hand in bewilderment and could not understand why he wanted a male ass. Zhenya started laughing at the absurdity of the situation. His mouth churned and his throat burned. MC told ML that he would kill him if he did something like that ever again. Zhenya continued to laugh. Taekju lowered Louise onto the bed, she was exhausted. MC got up, took vodka and began to drink in one gulp from the bottle, this did not quench his thirst, and the liquid began to flow down his neck and chest. He sat down again, gave Louise a drink, but before she could even take a sip, Zhenya suddenly pulled her in his direction. Louise asked for a 10-minute break, but Zhenya only bit her breasts, he brought his face to her stomach and licked Taekju's sperm, which remained on Louise's side. Kwon Taekju, who was watching this, frowned, but Zhenya's face only showed a deep, mocking smile. Taekju decided to ignore him and was about to go to the shower, but when he got up, Zhenya "thrown" Louise towards Taekju so that he would not leave. She landed right on top of him. Zhenya entered Louise, the weight and pressure of the body of Louise and Zhenya shifted to Taekju, in this position he could see Zhenya's movements. MC thought that ML was crazy and he would never understand what he was thinking (if anyone did not understand, then Taekju was sitting and was sandwiched between the wall and standing Louise, Zhenya was standing behind Louise, and the face of MC was at the level of Louise and Zhenya's genitals). Zhenya picked up the pace, Taekju had an idea of what Zhenya wanted to do, so he tried to leave, at the same time, a remorseful smile appeared on Zhenya's lips and blocked the MC's path. MC raised his head and saw the outline of Zhenya's cock on Louise's stomach, he hit his head against the wall. Louise was moaning so loudly that Taekju had the feeling that he was being fucked, not Louise. His cock stood up again. Taekju pushed them away and was about to leave, but Zhenya grabbed MC's wrist and prevented him from running away. Taekju called Zhenya crazy, but he just smiled and pressed him against the wall again. The MC made eye contact with Zhenya and thought that they often catch each other's eyes, but in fact Zhenya did not take his eyes off Taekju even before he inserted his cock into Louise. The MC was very aroused, Zhenya and Louise's genitals were right in front of his eyes, his vision blurred and his head was spinning. Sometimes Zhenya's cock would slide off and then he would slap it on Taekju's knees or thighs, the MC thought that the force of these slaps was very strong. Sometimes he rubbed his pubic hair against Taekju's skin, and when he was indignant and pushed him, ML pretended that this was an accident and he had nothing to do with it. Taekju thought Louise was just an excuse to bully him. Then Zhenya and Louise began to moan, Zhenya still held Taekju's hand with one hand, and with the other he took out Louise's cock and put it on Taekju's leg, he rubbed it a couple of times on the MC's thigh. Taekju watched as ML's cock dusted and his urethra opened. Soon, spray of sperm flew in all directions. The volley was so strong that most of it hit Taekju's face. Although he tried to turn his head the other way to avoid the cum, it still got on his eyelids and started to run down his face. Zhenya still hasn't let go of Taekju's wrist. The MC was shocked while ML smirked and said "Oh my... I made a mistake". The sperm hit Taekju in the eyes and they turned red, he clenched his fists and looked at Zhenya with fury in his eyes. He promised himself that he would definitely kill Zhenya. The next day, he learned that the train would soon arrive in Irkutsk (a city in Russia, famous for the deepest and largest freshwater lake in the world - Baikal). Louise was about to get off the train in Irkutsk. Zhenya went somewhere without saying anything to Taekju. MC is still angry. Even though ML called that facial a mistake, MC knew it was actually a provocation. Taekju felt overwhelmed, he washed his face several times, but the unpleasant feeling and memories of the peculiar texture of the mucus on his face did not leave him. To distract himself, he decided to watch the engineer, but his room was empty. Usually at this time the engineer went to the restroom, so Taekju decided to wait, but he never showed up. Taekju took a pistol and went out into the corridor, he examined the area, Zhenya was nowhere to be found. The MC took with him a special device that allows him to hear better, including through walls. He went all over the 2nd grade, but did not find the engineer. The MC thought the engineer might have figured out they were being followed, so he got off the train or was hiding somewhere. He entered the 3rd grade, there was stale air, children were screaming, there were a lot of people. Since he knew that the engineer was Asian and was pretending to be Asian, he focused on the Asians on the train, however, he only saw one elderly Asian woman, but there was too much difference in body type. Taekju turned his head and saw the toilet cabin used by 2nd and 3rd class passengers. Using the device, he found that there was someone in the restroom, he turned the handle, but the door from the inside was forbidden, although now they are at a bus stop and it is forbidden to use the toilet. Taekju realized that someone had entered the cabin and locked it from the inside, although it should have been locked from the outside. Suddenly, Taekju felt movement behind him, he turned his head and saw a man in a hood and mask, the MC could not understand if this man was the same engineer. The masked man and Taekju pointed their guns at each other, but suddenly the MC felt a strong pain in the back of his head, he was hit with something heavy. He fell, a stream of blood flowed down the back of his head, his eyes became unfocused. There was no sound of the toilet door opening. Taekju did not understand how he got hit, however, with every second he was losing consciousness faster. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a tall silhouette. The MC had a sense of deja vu. It was Zhenya's silhouette.</spoiler>

!!TW: Some parts of the novel is brutal and depressing, please be careful!!
PART 1: MAINSTORY (Original arok & Original klopp)
[SPOILER="VOL1: MAIN STORY SUMMARIZED"][/SPOILER][SPOILER="VOL1: MAIN STORY SUMMARIZED"]
This volume seems like the first timeline. Count arok taywind met klopp in one of their tea parties. He fell inlove instantly, but klopp have a lover named rafiel westport. Later they got married. Arok tried to forget him, but later burned with jealousy. He ordered the killing of rafiel, who was pregnant and raped, died with the unborn child.

Later on klopp suddenly disappeared and came back rich, while arok slowly fell from grace as his investments failed. Klopp unexpectedly helped him, eventually became a viscount and bought the mansion. He let arok stay in the mansion, but with his secret motive of revenge. He tricked arok into taking pills, and he was turned into omega. Klopp knew that arok ordered the death of his wife rafiel, and became crazed due to hatred and trauma. He raped arok, and said to pay back his sins. He took his wife and child so arok needs to pay back with a child. I believe its a twisted revenge on klopp side, a sign of conquest, of victory.

They had their first child, omega son who has blonde and blue eyes, he was named after rafiel. Afterwards, arok was moved to a hut, and was surprised because he thought he would atleast be given the authority to raise the child. Klopp snickered as he said arok would not become his wife, if he don't like to stay in the hut, he should leave. Arok stayed, and later had his second child, an alpha son. However, a commotion erupted as he refused to be treated badly by the servants, he was then kicked out of the estate and thrown to the slums.

There, it was hell. As he was raped repeatedly, in exchange for a bread. He had three miscarriages. Then one day, he saw klopp and rafiel child in a carriage, and had this fantasy of being with them. Or atleast hugging the child even once. Later he was running, he met klopp again, and klopp gave him a silver coin, a sign of belittling him. Arok bought second hand suit and went to the mansion again. He met klopp, and had a conversation where he discovered that klopp considers rafiel child as the child of his dead wife rafiel westport. Heartbroken, arok left and committed suicide to the river. He was saved by the attendant of klopp. Klopp was surprised that he commited suicide, as he thinks of aroks as a devil who does not even shed tears. (arok cannot cry no matter how har he tries, he once poked his eye to see if his tearducts are abnormal. It's because of his upbringing, as his father sees crying as not a acceptable trait of a noble count. Arok had the habit of smiling instead, masking his emotions deep in his bones, which provokes klopp as he sees arok happy and thinks he's still not hurt enough. Arok cannot change this no matter how hard he tries.)

Arok was allowed to stay in the estate, in a hut, near the rose garden and cedar trees. There, he lived quietly. Sometimes klopp would come at night, checking on him. Klopp would sometimes see rafiel on arok (arok was a distant relative of rafiel westport. They had the same eyes and haircolor, just little difference such as rafiel had dull blond hair and gray bluish eyes, while arok had shiny gold like blond hair and bluish eyes. Due to the total fall from grace of arok, he suffered to continous abuse and poverty in the slums. He began having frizzy dull hair, his strong alpha body gone as his body turned into omega, and his arrogance slowly faded). Later they had an argument, as klopp kept on giving arok the clothes that rafiel used to wear (rafiel westport was an omega his body is small and arok was once an alpha still having a bigger frame than ordinary omega, so arok sometimes tore the clothes as they dont fit him) resulting to being beaten and raped. Then, arok had his third child, another omega son.

He continued living quietly, content on small gestures and often visits of klopp. Soon he had another child, the fourth omega, a daughter. I believe this is where klopp starts to soften (? not really though) to arok. They usually have rough sex (its an omegaverse so, klopp usually have sex with arok). In this point, klopp had a "loving" vanilla sex with arok, though during it, klopp whispers cruelty and curses to arok, that arok hopefully dies the same way like rafiel westport, and how he hated him so much. Klopp later soften and thought of bringing arok to the mansion, because winter is harsh in the hut and he's already pregnant again on their 5th child. Maybe pity, guilt, and the feeling connection on having someone through lonely times, having a companion in their own created hell. That he have arok to suffer with. He hated him but also undeniably still have conscience and maybe twisted affections as he cared for him a little.

Klopp in the first place is not a bad person. He is a scholarly guy, a baron countryside noble who became an economic bureaucrat viscount, who is educated and has talents. But because of his monstrous hatred, he became a crazed twisted person hungry for revenge. So even though he treated arok with such cruelty, there are times he shows care and restraint esp when arok was pregnant. (though he takes them from him after childbirth and never let arok see them or touch them. one time arok hugged rafiel child and was beaten by klopp when he saw him. in his crazed mind he thinks that arok will stain rafiel, his dead wife again with his hands.)

However, as klopp thought of moving in with arok and spending this life with his enemy, arok disappeared in the hut. And sooner news was given that he escaped and was in the slums again. He found him indeed in the slums, currently blank out of his mind as he was being raped by 4 men (those who raped him before). Klopp murdered the men, as he covered the body of arok, who was brutally beaten, with broken ankle and shoulders, bruises, semen, and thick black blood under his lower body. He's spaced out, almost like dying. They quickly went back to mansion, where arok water bag broke in the carriage, he was having a sudden childbirth. He was about to be saved, however, the doctor discovered he is pregnant with twins, losing the small chance of survival.

After the childbirth, arok in his deathbed, asked for forgiveness, unaware that he was finally crying, shedding tears. He told klopp that he was hurting too and if given a chance he would not touch rafiel westport again. That now, he knows what rafiel westport felt while dying. He asked a dying wish, even as a lie, for klopp to say an "i love you", but klopp was silently crying. Arok smiled bitterly and close his eyes. He survived three days and passed away at the 3rd morning. Those days he was crying, and klopp was always beside him, hugging and kissing him. Arok was crying happy tears, and was having happy dreams when he died. Klopp was beside him when he breath his last and klopp gave him a kiss. Later he was standing on arok's tombstone, he felt regret, but still wasn't able to say "i love you".

Arok was in the hut, he saw a tall man in the garden, klopp with the 6 children laughing and walking in the garden. He also saw someone with dull blonde hair, an omega, rafiel westport. Arok cried, and laughed. Strangely, he did not felt jealousy. He looked at klopp, and klopp stared at him, and eventually turned his back going to his family who is calling for him. They looked so happy. Arok still smiled while shedding tears, like a gesture that he's now accepting this end while he's being swallowed and drowned by darkness.
[/SPOILER]
PART 2: (Original arok regression & klopp) [Klopp pov]
[SPOILER="VOL 2 OC AROK REGRESSION & KLOPP STORY SUMMARIZED "][/SPOILER][SPOILER="VOL 2 OC AROK REGRESSION & KLOPP STORY SUMMARIZED "]
Klopp was lost in the cedar trees during the tea party of count arok taywind. They met and arok helped him to get back to the location. During the tea party, klopp observes the count and irritated that he has his fake smile and has this impression of him as a playboy. They bumped again, and klopp puts a sarcastic attitude towards the count. Arok strikes back and eventually turned into full of banters and sarcastic comebacks. He was invited again, sees it as an opportunity to widen his connection, he went. Though during those parties, klopp was slowly being attracted to arok, lowkey stealing glances, unconciously observing, searching for him, and was jealous of other people who is with arok.


Klopp refuse to be attracted to another alpha he decided to pursue rafiel westport more, who looked like arok taywind, and stopped going to the invitations of count arok to distract himself. He wanted a stable life and he thinks that it should be with rafiel westport, instead of the arrogant count arok. But still, he cannot forget the count. He buried himself with work, as he was new in this industry and still building his reputation. His clients are growing, and his skills are being praised as he slowly starts the way to his success. But one night, count arok came uninvited in his office, asking for advice as his investment fails. Klopp wants to turn it down, but then accepted due to the recommendation letter arok have from klopp's viscount mentor. He was also distracted from the strong perfume smell that was left in his office as the count left.


Klopp had dreams. He's with someone with dull blonde hair, big belly, and inside a hut. He has so much anger and hatred towards that skinny omega person. He finds it weird, as he seems to see count arok in that person, which is the opposite of the count arok right now. He did not take it seriously, but always disturbed with the brutal treatment and his behavior in those dreams. He did not see himself acting that way. These dreams continued on, with flashes of different scenes.


Later on he become like a financial advisor of arok, dumbfounded how arok seems to not have any idea of fund management. Having him as a client, it is inevitable for them to meet. He became nervous and anxious pushing his engagement with rafiel quickly, because he felt like he will be defeated and deviate to the stable life that he wants. One time, after the date with rafiel, they spotted someone who looked like count arok in the slums, wearing a cloak and wary of the people around. Klopp shook it off, knowing how arrogant arok was, he won't even breathe the air in that area, they thought they were mistaken.


During to a concert planned by the count arok, klopp also decided to propose that night to rafiel. The concert was grandioise, but he was a little unconfortable as him and rafiel were placed in the center, like star of the night although they were surrounded by higher people, count and marquis. Especially, a specific marquis wolflake who keeps on glaring on him that made him a little annoyed. Unexpectedly, count arok arranged a performance. He played a violin instrument, with a sad and tragic love melody that made the crowd tear. It is a heartbreaking melody, that also bewitch klopp. Why and who is making you sad? Klopp though as he stared at the guy who looked like a dream, gorgeous as he stands in the stage in his white suit and beauty that shines. Count arok had a melancholic aura, klopp cannot understand. Anxious of what he is feeling, he felt like he's standing on the cliff, he needs to act in urgency. He needs to propose now to rafiel. He must.


When klopp decided, he led rafiel to a hidden area at rose garden to propose, he readied himself and pop the question when he was suddenly pushed by a couple who was doing something nasty. He became angry, not because the marriage proposal was interrupted, but because he felt like all the piled emotions needs to be vented, and his chance for a saving was now lost. He was hanging by a thread and now he lost control and fought with the guy even infront of rafiel westport. Rafiel ran and the ring was lost, the scene was a mess and count arok arrived, worried on his injuries. Arok ordered them to be let inside the mansion to calm the noise and avoid rumors. Later, the engagement between rafiel westport and was denied and they broke up. Count arok stormed in his office, asking why they broke up. Klopp began having his suspicions, and cornered the count. He thought that count arok liked rafiel, as he can't stop mentioning his ex and also connects his past behaviors. He can't restrain himself and they kissed. Wherein count arok woke up and pushed him then ran away.


Later then klopp pursued arok, though he was being avoided by the count. He was taught by the butler, having a hint on his relationship with the count, he continued to learn noble ethics under the strict cold butler. Wanting to gather favors to the person closest to arok, he worked hard. One time he heard some gossip that an omega noble was buying suppressor in the slums. Klopp was curious, and then surprised when he saw count arok being cornered by men. He saved him, dragged him and ended up having sex at Klopp's house. He was angry as the count arok who is avoiding him smells like an omega, he thought arok was rolling around with an omega prostitute/lover in the slums. Klopp discovered that count arok who is a noble alpha became an omega. Turns out, he transformed into omega and it started when he met klopps. That is why he have the thick scent of omega on his body. Overjoyed, he considered arok as his omega already, and planned to spend arok's heat with him in the next month. They discussed about children, and klopp wanted to have 2 child, while count arok wants six children surprisingly (he maybe have this regret not being able to be with his six children in the past :'( )


Soon arok had another party, klopp even spotted marquis wolflake with rafiel westport, who are now married, and angered as he wondered why rafiel is here again. He thought that arok's obsession with rafiel is still not finished. He dragged the count arok, who is nearing his heat and had sex. Later, arok was knotted and imprinted by klopp. It's the first time arok heard klopp saying an "i love you". He panicked, scared that this is a dream and he will wake up soon, as he believed that klopp would never love him. Klopp comforted him and whispered i love yous till he fell asleep.


Afterward, count arko's belly was starting to grow, he said it will be an omega child, with blonde and blue eyes and will be named as rafiel. Klopp was angry and shouted, jealous, that he will never allow a rafiel name in his children. He insisted that it will be an alpha son. Klopp spoiled and cared so much for Arok during his pregnancy. Arok disliked raisins, and spits them out. They moved to someplace far from the people's eyes, as it will complicate the reputation of the count. Count arok is known to be an alpha, and if words came out that he become an omega, there will be rumors and disputes esp on him being a taywind heir. So they decided not to bring this up for a while as klopp will work on it later. He wanted to legally marry count arok but alpha to alpha marriage was not allowed yet, so they have no choice but to wait for the mean time. Klopp promised arok that he will make him his wife legally and will work for the documents.


Arok birthed an alpha son, with features same as Klopp. Arok panicked, he cannot believe its his son and rejected it at first, but later calmed down and breastfed the baby. He whispered that things have changed. He keeps on having panic attacks where he begs klopp not to take the child, like he is confused if this life was like in the last life. In his hazy confused moments, arok told him a story. Klopp felt goosebumps and chills as arok told him a brutal story which is actually their first life. Klopp did not know that it is their first life, and thought that arok was still not on the right mind, but he still felt disturbed. Klopp rides on his story, still not considering it as the truth, he plays on and says that he forgives him, and he loves him, where arok reacted strongly while sobbing and told him if he can love klopp now. They exchanged i love yous and arok slept. Klopp thought that maybe that dream is what caused arok to behave like this, like how he loves to eat, how he don't like it when klopp leaves and why he only now said his affections and reciprocated his i love you. Klopp thought that arok had this emotional instability due to this imaginations and was probably the result of his strict upbringing in a noble house. He's determined to heal that by giving infinite love. He whispered to his baby son that arok was someone who lacked affections and they should love him. When he woke up, he saw arok with the child. Arok looked different, like he was finally happy and he looks better with a lighter atmosphere and look on his face.


Arok was standing, still at the secluded garden again. He saw a tall man, klopp laughing, with several children with him. He tried to shout at him, grab the blurry scene, but he can't. He saw an omega, rafiel westport. Arok smiled and cried. Arok looked at them in his blurry vision a little longer as he knows he will be swallowed by darkness again soon. It was enough, it was a fleeting dream, but i am happy. Klopp looked at him and he stared back smiling but crying. But opposite of what he thought, Klopp did not turn back, instead shouted at him and ran towards him. He woke up to the shouting, and saw Klopp worried. They are in the rose garden, and two children came running to him calling him mother. Klopp and arok currently have 2 children, Lennok the alpha son who looked like klopp, and urea his omega daughter with blonde and blue eyes, and soon, as he is in his early pregnancy now, a baby son who have klopp's hair and blue eyes, Jester. Klopp comforted him and kissed him. Arok laughed, he hugged klopp back who in return wiped his tears.


Now the darkness is gone and there is dazzling light.

PART 3: (Original klopp regression & arok) [Arok pov]
[SPOILER="VOL 3 OC KLOPP REGRESSION & AROK STORY SUMMARIZED"][/SPOILER][SPOILER="VOL 3 OC KLOPP REGRESSION & AROK STORY SUMMARIZED"]
They had an encounter again in the rose garden where they always met at the first time in each life. Klopp was angry and histerical when he met arok first. Like a madman he shouted and cursed the clueless count. Arok was surprised to his outbursts and was assaulted, arok screamed for help, luckily his servants helped him to kicked the madman.


The second encounter was when he got lost after he went in a concert at the royal music hall. Distracted, he got lost in the streets. There, he met scammers. They attacked him and luckily he was safe, as he was helped by Klopp. Arok was wary of the madman, but Klop was calm. He asked if Arok cannot remember him, and arok was still clueless. Klopp, smiling, confirmed he came back in time. Arok felt goosebumps and creeped out, so he said his goodbyes and left.


The third encounter was in the party of duchess clayton. He was surprised to see the madman in the party, and how people treat him with respect. In his mind, how did this mad swindler able to trick these people? Arok thought. To avoid klopp, arok went to the terrace, but he was found and cornered by klopp. (Klopp was shamelessly flirting with him lmao) He felt fear for the unpredictable madman klopp, and klopp seeing how arok paled infront of him, let go. He went on a rampage like a madman with rabies, and then was caught offguard with the sudden calm demeanor like a saint born under the star of reason, and now he's showing his desire like a dog in heat.


Soon arok was in trouble, as how his life started to go down like the other life, his financial invesments are failing. He tried and asked for a trusted finance advisor, and resulted to all of them pointed to Klopp Bendyk. Left with no choice, he asked for klopp's presence. But Klopp did not want to be paid by money, instead he wanted arok. Arok who was desperate, agreed. They had a contract, where klopp will manage his debt and income, in exchange, they will have an "agreed relationship".The day of the agreed date of payment is due. Arok had a rough nightmare of him having sexual intercourse with klopp. Clueless he went to the room inside the mansion where they decided to do it. But instead, when Arok told klopp that all the neccessary equipments are ready, klopp laughed. He intended to court arok, not to force him into it.


The meet ups continued. One time, after arok's visit in an art gallery, he found klopp waiting in the mansion. Arok was surprised to see his beloved books in the table, like they were picked up. He was curious how klopp knew his favorite books. When klopp's about to leave he leand to arok, he looks like he was about to kiss him, but instead kissed his forehead. When they had a conversation about the old cabin, Arok said he wanted to remove it, as the cabin dont match the beautiful rose garden but klopp asked him to leave it as it is. There also ended up about the topic of the "payment" as arok's joked that he's about to cry with how long klopp's taking it. Klopp said he wouldn't want him to cry, he will feel like dying on the spot. Later they kissed and had an agreement to do it the next time. At the agreed day, Klopp was having doubts, he asked arok, "Is it okay if we do this? To be honest, I am afraid that the days of hating each other will start again." Arok was confuse again, as Klopp keep on spouting different things each time. He keeps mentioning things that he cannot understand. They went on it but not all the way.


Then there was a dinner incident where klopp said something offending to rafiel. Then arguments came where arok, wolflake, and klopp quarrelled. Rafiel cried and walked out and marquis wolflake followed to comfort him. In the carriage, klopp said to arok not to touch rafiel. Arok said he would as he dont have any ill intention to the innocent omega. Klopp said because of jealousy, because arok wanted to be an omega. Arok laughed and said he put pride in being an alpha. There he thought that klopp liked rafiel, and that he, arok, was just a substitute for klopp's desires for rafiel. They had an argument in the carriage and ended up arok firing klopp and left. Then arok went to the slums again to "vent" and find an omega to a brothel. However he met scammers again, where he found klopp again. His attackers were killed with klopp's sword. However, the back ups came and klopp was shot. They went to klopp's house to be treated. Few days he came and visited but klopp was unavailable as he was resting. One day, he invited klopp for an evening party. However what came is a letter of apology for not being absent. Arok decided to go to klopp's house.


There he heard klopp cooing someone, speaking softly, and eventually saying rafiel. Angered, arok stormed out of klopp's house and went to marquis wolflake estate. He told the marquis that he was being cheated by rafiel, his fiance. But wolflake told him his fiance was upstairs, and rafiel indeed came down, still sleepy. Arok was dumbfounded. Who was that rafiel that klopp was talking to? (Klopp was hallucinating of baby rafiel in the first life, as its a symptom of his imprinting :'( ) He went back to the klopp's house and there he saw klopp in his crazed moment. He's like not himself and eventually, almost killed arok by strangling. Arok defended himself and injured him in the head. Klopp kept apologizing, paled. Turns out, he confessed he's imprinted, and it was his imprinted symptoms that made him go crazed. But it's not rafiel westport. It was someone else.


Heartbroken and terrified, arok hid in his mansion for days. Letters of apology keep on coming from klopp and sometimes he cames in the mansion but arok did not meet him. Then arok decided to go out after few days. He went to the hat store, but surprised there was a reserved hats for him paid by klopp, he was angry but took it. Next he went to an art gallery, but discovered there was a canvass that klopp ordered, and he saw a painting, a skinny man inside a worn out cabin, blonde hair blue eyes, sitting in a chair beside the sack of potatoes and daffodils, playing chess with stones on a table. (It was the arok of the first life :'( ) He was angered again, as he consider it a shame as the painter told him the man is him. It was an embarrasment to the count, he is not a worn and skinny man but a noble count.


Later klopp went again to the mansion, but then the angry arok threw him the hat and the paintings. Klopp was saddened and asked if he did not like it. Klopp said that he was indeed imprinted. And it was his last visit to the count as he will now meet that person and go with him. Arok asked if he looked like him, but klopp said he did not, and added that his soul only belongs to that person. Arok calmed, and they said their goodbyes. Later, a gunshot was heard.


Klopp was saved thanks to wolflake who ticked his gun beforehand so it exploded in his hands instead. Though there are still impact and a wound on his head and fingers. Klopp claimed he have amnesia, and the relationship between them progressed. One time klopp spilled the name arok, an omega, so arok search for that person, but ther was no one. Later he discovered he is also turning into an omega. He asked klopp who did he imprinted to, but klopp kept saying it is arok taywind. It was him all along. Arok knew it did not make sense and only thought that he's still not in the right mind because of the imprinting symptom and amnesia. (I think later on when they had intercourse, the imprinted was indeed arok, but i believe that's actually impossible without intercourse so arok cannot believe it as its their first. Klopp imprinted with the past arok but i guess same dna so it worked with present arok.)


In the last chapter, it was revealed that klopp did not have amnesia, but only wanted to hide his past life to the arok of present. Klopp wanted arok taywind. His mate. His imprinted omega. His devil. But in that life, he's not there. He realized his soul would never have a second chance to rest by his side. He was not allowed to be by his side. Instead, he whispered i love you to that beautiful present arok taywind. He hoped that these unfinished whispers of love will reach it's proper owner someday. He hoped that if he loved the person infront of him with all his might, one day, that battered man will come to meet him.

[/SPOILER]

*Please read the spoilers above to understand the spoilers below*
Explanations, Additional spoilers, & opinion
[SPOILER=" Did klopp love arok in volume 1? "]
It wasn't clearly said what klopp felt for arok. Is it affections, lust, anger, envy, insecurity, longing, or other crazy twisted emotions. I think klopp was really attracted to him though, be it physical attraction, or obsession. (Well our count arok was said to be gorgeous and beautiful. He had that noble aura and elegance, that even when he was worn and skinny, he is still beautiful and serene.) But i believed klopp did not forgive him, and also did not forgive himself. Both are guilty, having twisted relationship, and misunderstandings. An enemy to lover troupe with dark plot and bad ending.


PS. The part 1 should be really a forbidden book hahaha. The part 2 is pov of klopp, where arok reborn. But only arok have his past life memories, while klopp had dreams of his past life.
[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="What happened after arok died in first life"]



It was mentioned what happened to the family after arok's death. After arok died, they discovered that the two was imprinted. Later, the mansion slowly became quiet as his children one by one left to follow their loved ones. He was only left with the spacious mansion, with the beautiful rose garden and the small cabin. One time, he saw the desolate cabin had its dim light again, he rushed downstairs ans shouted that name, but all he saw was the abandoned cabin. Then he realized it. He glanced at the side, and saw the tombstone buried in stone. He stood there for a long time.

It was also mentioned that rafiel, the first child, sooner known that rafiel westport is not his real mother, but was actually the count arok taywind. He was upset and left the estate, refusing to acknowledge what his father told him that his mother was the dead rafiel westport who was named after him. In anger, klopp cursed arok's tombstone and tried to destroy it with a hammer, where the second child, alpha son, interfered and was injured eventually. Seems like also klopp, now old with his silver hair, was unable to walk and mostly spend his time inside the mansion, in a room where the garden can be seen, sitting, staring blankly at the rose garden and the desolate cabin, from dawn to sunset. He was alone in the melancholic house.

[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="Did klopp loved rafiel in volume 1? "]
In my opinion i think he did love rafiel in part vol 1. Not that head over heels inlove that you will fight societal barriers or almost impossible love like with arok.

If i would judge including the story on other volumes, I think it's more like choosing stability with rafiel instead pursuing an uncertain life with the arrogant and difficult count arok. And maybe, that's how it was too in their first life, too. Like, he refused this attraction to arok and instead dumped all his attention to rafiel to lose feelings, and eventually learned to love rafiel. The difference maybe is that in the part 1, klopp did not pursue what he felt to count arok, successfully being with rafiel in what supposed to be stable life, learning to love his spouse. Arok also tried to avoid him due to his jealousy before then. While in the part 2, because of their continued meeting and encounters that made Klopp's feelings stronger, he destroyed that barrier and restraint, chased the count arok and loved him infinitely. And in part 3, it was klopp first who showed motive, and eventually they both flirted. I believe it's also like a ripple effect, as oc count arok's and oc klopp's actions caused these events to change compared to the first life.
[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="Why did klopp took revenge?"]
i think he took revenge on arok because he did not see his repentance and he was angry because he still feels grief on the death of rafiel after many years, while the "killer", arok, was already moving on in his life. That is why he have mixed feelings towards arok. He treats him hot and cold, and because of his trauma and crazed mind, he torments him to see him beg for forgiveness. But he also treats him with little care, sometimes. He did mention that if only arok showed guilt, and beg at him while crying, he would have treated him better. We should also take the point to remember how arok behavior is as he is taught to be calm and mask his emotions. He feels teribble inside, but he keeps calm and smiles outside. It's like how he defends himself, acting like it doesn't matter, that it doesn't affect him, that he shouldn't show how hurt he is. It was how he was raised, and he cannot change that. Klopp taught he is provoking him more in these actions, and his hatred even grew. He became disgusted with arok but he was unaware of how arok responds pain. Also (credit to that person who posted) it was that maybe, klopp was disgusted to the thought that he fell in love with a devil, that kind of person and he probably felt angry to himself and to arok too.

[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="Who did end up with who?"]
I am also confused but it seems like after their deaths in the main story, the souls of original mc & ml are separated and regressed to other parallel world/life (?) In part 2 & 3, they met their partners, and had the same events happening. But different plot as they took different actions. The partners are different too. Oc arok with his past memories of first life, & unmarried klopp who chased arok. Oc klopp with his past memories of first life & noble arok who didn't fell first and maintained his nobility. It's like meeting the new version of their partners. Learning who they really were without the tragic and brutal history. Both of the originals hid their past life in their partners in those worlds. Like how klopp considered oc arok's past memories as a dream or imaginations. And arok considers the memories of oc klopps as past hallucination from a mere symptom of his illness of imprinting and amnesia.



[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="To further explain the ending of volume 3"]
Infront of him now was the arrogant, noble, and beautiful Arok taywind. The most brilliant creature in the world. But not the, arok taywind he longed for. He wanted to meet that past arok taywind, so much that he comitted suicide. But he will never be with him again. It doesn't mean that he do not love the arok infront of him. The arok in this life was how he knew past arok better. His brilliance, his wits, his cute, and funny side. He never knew that his past arok was this kind of person before the tragedy. But the person who made him feel guilt and deep affections was the past arok taywind. That longing and guilt, I believe its his punishment. He may grovel at the ground, kill himself, hurt himself. But time cannot be turned back. I think his regression, is not a second chance, but to make him feel the pain and guilt more, as he slowly know how good person arok was, that this brilliant present arok, was reduced to that worn skinny past arok, due to his sins. The also brilliant past arok that he ruined and cursed, will never come back to him no matter how he regret. It is his punishment..

The unhappiness of being unreachable and unforgivable even when it's also Arok's by his side. It's a bittersweet ending fitting for Klopp of first life.
[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="How imprinting works in this world"]The imprinting of alpha and omega is a forever bond. But in this life, most of the disadvantages will fall to the alpha. As how klopp's behavior changes in the part 3, it shows that his imprint in his first life still tied on him. He had hallucinations, intensified obsession, lust, longing, and physical symptoms like coughing up blood. This takes a toll on his mental health and everytime he would be rejected by his imprinted omega, he spits and coughs blood. But when he imprinted with the present arok when arok is slowly turning into an omega, i think it worked even though who he originally imprinted with is past arok, i guess the dna are the same and matched cuz basically its the same person.

It was said that when an alpha imprints an omega, it is harder on the alpha side. In one of the side stories, it was like even said to be like a curse. The alpha will have difficult timesto live if his imprinted omega died. The klopp in the first volume was said to have suffered the extreme symptoms, and only had the motivation to survive for his children. [/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="How did an alpha arok became an omega"]
In the volume 1, it was said that klopp tricked arok into taking pills that will transform him into an omega. The pills worked, but it hurted arok so much in the process.

In volume 2, not much was mentioned on how he became an omega again. But arok said that he slowly turned into an omega when he met and started to keep on meeting klopp.

In volume 3, he checked to the doctor and was told that he is not an alpha or an omega. The doctor gave arok a tester that will show blue if alpha, and red if omega. However, the tester showed purple instead. So he was either or neither an alpha and omega. Although he is probably can be fertile and get pregnant, as the doctor gave him suppressor and birth control pills. It is where klopp discovered those and that was when he knew that arok changed again.

Overall, i think it was that in each lifetime, arok was supposed to actually change from alpha to omega. The doctor in volume 3 confirmed this. So that pills fed to him by klopp in the first life was probably triggered his dna to "awake" and have mutation, eventually his gender to changed. I believe that what triggered that change from volume 2 and 3 are him being exposed to klopp which stimulated the mutation.
[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="News on rafiel on these volumes?"]
In the volume 1, he was raped and killed with the unborn baby. Though it wasn't mentioned if the baby was indeed klopp's child, i think rafiel isn't someone who will cheat, especially in that timeline where he is married with klopp. He is a fluffy scaredy cat innocent omega. And i don't think marquis wolflake is someone who steals someone's lover, as he is someone who puts respect in serious manner. Also, in vol 2, even though he looked like he's burning in jealousy, all he did was glare to klopp and back off. He know the definition of boundaries and relationships. Iirc, there was also no mention of marquis wolflake and rafiel interaction in this volume though.

In volume 2, it was mentioned that marquis wolflake keeps on glaring at klopp whenever klopp is close and touchy with rafiel. Klopp and rafiel were lovers in that time, as they were arranged to be married. Later, it was mentioned that in one of the parties of arok, here the engagement of rafiel and klopp was already denied long ago, rafiel was seen to be with marquis wolflake. Soon, the two went to foreign country and got married.

In volume 3, Rafiel and klopp never got together. Since there was a scene where klopp offended rafiel, it was an event that caused rafiel to hate klopp as he is rude and rough person. Marquis wolflake comforted rafiel that time and i think that is the turning point where they became close. Later the two became engaged as it there was a scene where rafiel was inside the household of the wolflake late at night, and wolflake calls him fiance. Soon it was said they got married, and traveled the world. Although rafiel miscarried their firstborn, he is pregnant again and was currently stable and safe to keep the baby.

Marquis wolflake is known to be cold through and through, but whenever he is with rafiel, he becaomes soft and gentle. I am not sure but i think he is somewhat like a soldier (?). The people around him was also shocked to know that this person who is like gonna froze anyone he meets, was warm to rafiel only. He was said to be hard to get along with, as he looks snob, but it was mentioned that he is actually an easy going person, as long as he is respected. I think the pair is a cute match. A fluffy sunny omega and the snob sunny omega protector. [/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="Did klopp actually made arok fall from grace in volume 1?"]
This, i am not sure. Depending on the circumstances, there is a possibility that he did and did not. Maybe he did, but either way, j think the county was bound to fall from grace even without his influence. After reading all these volumes, Count arok was proven and tested, to not be inclined to financial management. He is unskilled in this subject, and can easily be tricked as he was repeatedly scammed on every life. He doesn't know the value of money, like how a silver coin can mean so little, and how big the funds of taywind lineage has that can even support a country. (Mind you, the count heritage was older than royal family, so you can only imagine how enourmous their fund treasury is, but he still manage in every life to get scammed and almost go bankrupt ) He is clueless on the basic chores and knowledge in life. So i believe whether klopp did dirty tricks for his investment to fail or not, the taywind treasury is bound to be reduced as how he cannot manage them. He doesn't even know to collect his receipts and to read the ledger. Anf he keeps on signing contracts without even reading into it and checking upon it. He thinks it's such a hassle to keep reading copies of contract so he just signed and signed.

Y'all I heard this from my mom (who reads the novel) and apparently the emperor accidentally slipped Navier a cookie that supposedly makes her infertile a long time ago.
This is why he thinks she's infertile, (which she actually isnt).
Navier ends up giving birth to twins with Bird guy and they are SO CUTE (≧∀≦)
