## Chapter 1808 – Postscript
Hello! It’s Kim Ribs!
“The Foreigner with Black Hair,” with its 1400 chapters in the main story and nearly 400 chapters of side stories, has finally come to an end!
I started serializing it in February 2019, so it’s been a whopping 3 years and 5 months! I truly feel the ephemerality of time!
But it seems like it was enough time for that loser Kat to see his second child. Now that the side stories, which can be said to be a bonus after the main story, are over, it can truly be called the end.
Now that I’ve finished it, I feel relieved but also overwhelmed by an inhuman sadness. The thought that I can’t write Kat’s story anymore makes my heart ache so much.
So I just cried my eyes out! I hadn’t cried in years, but I had a good cry! I sat down on the living room floor, shaking my legs and wailing, and then I felt a little better!
Whatever it is, if there’s a beginning, there’s an end.
Anyway, even though it’s over, Kat will continue to live his life well on his own. He’s become the absolute god Cheonma, full of infinite confidence, so what can’t he do! There are unresolved plot points from the main story…! There are, but! Kat will take care of it!
I think you can trust Kat as if you’ve become a citizen of the Cheonma Divine Kingdom!

So, let’s stop with the introduction and talk about “The Foreigner with Black Hair” as it’s a postscript to the ending.
In fact, “The Foreigner with Black Hair” can be said to be a direct descendant of the fusion fantasy isekai stories from the rental store era. As a fantasy enthusiast, I used to go to rental stores in the mid-2000s to borrow fantasy novels.
I was one of those people who cried while reading Elquines. Anyway, as those who went to rental stores at that time know, most of the works were either overpowered or had a feeling that the main characters were too special.
I liked them a lot, but as I read them, I started to think:
“Why are the main characters so special? Why do they get so strong so quickly? Why do they start the story already strong?”
As I read, I slowly wanted to see a main character who was ordinary and weak, but there were almost none in those days.
“The Foreigner with Black Hair” started from that thought.
In fact, Kat was very weak in the beginning and grew slowly. That’s right. It was the work I had in mind. He wasn’t a particularly special being, just an ordinary man who fell into another world.
That’s why it was so much fun to write. It was really fun for me to slowly grow Kat. And creating the character ‘Kim Kat’ was the greatest joy of all!
“Kieeeeeeeeeeek!”
Kim Kat, who just screams this strange scream, is by no means a normal character. I always thought about that while writing “The Foreigner with Black Hair.”
Kat seems cheerful, but he harbors madness and anger inside. Geuntae, who lived an ordinary life on modern Earth, suddenly came to another world and experienced life-threatening situations several times, committing murder, being backstabbed, and suffering all kinds of pain.
There’s no way such a person can be normal. He has no choice but to go crazy.
So, while writing “The Foreigner with Black Hair,” I constantly wondered what Kat would think, how Kat would act, and that was really fun!
And as Kat slowly grew, he created his own beliefs, and thus saved the world!
It can be said to be the story of a seeker!
Kim Kat wanders and worries, but eventually completes his own beliefs and faith and becomes an absolute god to save this world. He’s a seeker himself!
Looking at it this way, it’s a fairly simple plot.
Human Kim Kat becomes a seeker and eventually becomes a god. In fact, it was a simple plot, so I was able to come this far. In the end, I ran well until the end!
To summarize, “The Foreigner with Black Hair” can be roughly divided into four parts.
Part 1 is about Kim Kat, who came to another world without knowing anything, accumulating strength and experience with a chaotic feeling and worrying.
Part 2 is about Kim Kat, who became a Paladin, completing his own belief, Fusion Confucianism, and learning about the truth of the world.
Part 3 can be said to be about Kat, who learned the full truth, defeating the great evil with his own power.
And Part 4, the side story, is literally a slice-of-life story after becoming a transcendent!
This is how “The Foreigner with Black Hair” can be summarized!
I think it was a successful harem story! The heroines, each with their own distinct personality and outstanding charm, are the driving force behind “The Foreigner with Black Hair,” aren’t they!
If you’re going to write a harem story, you have to write it like “The Foreigner with Black Hair”! I wrote it with that mindset, so it’s only natural!
The appropriate distribution of screen time for the harem heroines and their overflowing charm have become the flower of the work “The Foreigner with Black Hair”! They are truly proud heroines themselves!
Whatever it is, thank you so much for reading!!!

From here on, it’s the “The Foreigner with Black Hair” Q&A!
I will answer the questions that I have received the most. I couldn’t easily reveal them during the serialization because they would be spoilers, but it’s okay in the postscript!
Then let’s begin!
@@@@@@@
[Q1] : Why didn’t you make the Sword Master, Great Mage, and Princess heroines?
[A1] : I received this question a lot, but unfortunately, these kingdom trio were not set as heroines from the beginning!
The reason they appeared was that I originally intended to make them appear properly when Kat completely took over the Karga Kingdom, confronting and resolving conflicts with this kingdom trio. I was going to write a slightly political episode, but… as I wrote, I felt that this political part would become very tedious, so I edited it out entirely!
In this process, I was also going to introduce the previous Sword Master of the Karga Kingdom, who had some foreshadowing, but I ended up blowing that away too! This is my fault for skipping the episode…!
In the end, the kingdom trio became extras!
@@@@@@@
[Q2] : Why didn’t you make Lady Isvant a heroine?
[A2] : I received this question quite a bit as well, but Lady Isvant was not a heroine, but a character set as a noble lady who gets along well with Kat like Copson! So I had no intention of making her a heroine, but her popularity exploded unexpectedly…! She was a really charming character!
@@@@@@@
[Q3] : Where did the soul go?
[A3] : This is a MacGuffin! The ending has come, but Kat will continue to explore it in the future!
@@@@@@@
[Q4] : What happened to Pandemonium?
[A4] : That great demon Lucifer recognized Kat’s power and ran away without any hesitation! The demons of Pandemonium that I set up were such other-dimensional beings, and Lucifer was the administrator of the world called Pandemonium! He judged that he could no longer endure in this dimension, so he ran away cleanly!
@@@@@@@
[Q5] : Who is the pagan woman who appeared at the end?
[A5] : In fact, she is still alive! That woman is the successor of the Lich Church, and she worked hard to plot various schemes, but in the end, she’s just a mortal! She couldn’t face Kat, who is a transcendent, so she just burrowed and waited for the next world! I think she’s still secretly living somewhere!
@@@@@@@
[Q6] : Why are the sex scenes in “The Foreigner with Black Hair” not arousing?
[A6] : This is a clear distortion! If you read it again, you’ll see that it’s really super arousing! I really experienced a state of extreme excitement while writing! The sex scenes in “The Foreigner with Black Hair” are super arousing!
@@@@@@@
[Q7] : Why does Kim Kat swear so much?
[A7] : I never imagined that I would be criticized for this, but the reason Kat swears a lot is because he is a low-level adventurer!
It’s the same with the military and construction sites, but there’s no way there can be no swearing! In the military, it seems like you shout “fuck” about 60 times a minute, and when you’re doing construction work, you can’t establish a conversation without swearing! Korea in modern Earth is like that, so if low-level adventurers living in a medieval-style society don’t swear, that’s just nonsense!
@@@@@@@
[Q8] : What did you prepare before writing “The Foreigner with Black Hair”?
[A8] : I started writing with most of the world settings and the ending set! I imagined that he would be tricked by the Lich, reveal it at the end, and transcend to become a god! I thought it would take a long time, but I never imagined it would exceed 1000 chapters!
I think that’s all for the Q&A!
I feel refreshed!
Then let’s move on to the heroine introductions!
——————
Claudia: She is a heroine that I conceived as a motherly figure. In fact, Kat’s ideology itself was greatly influenced by Claudia, but in the early days, Claudia had a bit of a feeling of gaslighting the wandering Kat!
This happened because she had wandered the desert alone for 120 years, and Kat was the first man she had ever met! She was very inexperienced in romance, so she unconsciously forced ‘the path that Kat would like when she saw it’!
Gaslighting caused by inexperience! But Claudia seems to have raised Kat well as a mama!
——————
Winia: She’s a bit like Kat’s childhood friend! She was bullied a lot, so she’s really like the licorice of “The Foreigner with Black Hair”! Kat changed his mind a lot because of Winia!
Whatever it is, I think Winia was a very young woman! A heroine who grew up with Kat! In the beginning, she only bickered, but at some point, she became Kat-obsessed and became so submissive that she gave him unlimited access to her breasts!
So good!
——————
Karin: She is a heroine that I conceived as Kat’s older sister! Thanks to Karin, he learned a lot of good skills, and she can be said to be a real older sister who embraced Kat in the position of an older sister who is a little older!
I really worried a lot about trying to give her a sisterly feeling! Anyway, this murderous older sister also gaslighted Kat a bit, but isn’t that because Karin grew up without receiving love from an early age!
——————
Risha: She is a heroine that I conceived as Kat’s stepmother! A mama force that is second to none to Claudia! She seemed like a scary witch, but in fact, she has the charm of being a klutz!
I really like the setting of the word count counter that I got in the later half!
——————
Liztina: She is a heroine that I conceived as Kat’s second older sister! In fact, she is a common-sense position with the most normal personality and background among the heroines of “The Foreigner with Black Hair”!
As the second older sister, she has a more affectionate feeling than Karin!
——————
Ari: Ari, I’m really sorry! Every time I think of Ari, I’m so sorry that I can’t stand it! I couldn’t bring out your charm because I was incompetent! It’s all my fault! I’m sorry! But when you first came out, you were popular!
So I feel good every time I get a good review in the side story!
——————
Hilde: She is a cute Hilde who has a Kat-obsessed and large-dog-like feeling! The lively feeling is really good!
But there were some people who were curious about whether Hilde was a virgin or not, and she is a virgin! The succubi of Pandemonium invade the human mind through dreams, but their bodies don’t go directly. They create a kind of doppelganger and make humans dream! As a race that extracts mental energy in that way, they are physically pure!
Don’t worry!
——————
Kadiah: She is a heroine with the feeling of a boss at work! She is practically the heroine of Part 2, and I have fond memories of having fun writing the interlude because her popularity exploded!
In fact, when you look at her seducing Kat, you can say that she is the most cunning among all the heroines!
——————
Elise: Eliseeeeeeeeeeeek!!! She is the nun Elise who is responsible for the big fun of “The Foreigner with Black Hair”! In fact, from the time I first introduced Elise, I thought, “Oh, I should put Elise as the heroine at the very end.”
I was aiming for a slightly symmetrical structure!
Anyway, there were so many people who were waiting for Elise’s interlude while I was serializing, and every time I saw them, I thought, “Elise’s interlude will only come out in the very last part, what should I do?”
In the end, the interlude came out, so wish fulfilled!!!!
——————
That’s the end of the heroine introductions!
Personally, I want to write a story about Kat living only with Winia, Karin, Risha, Liztina, Hilde, Ari, Kadiah, and Elise, or an “if” story where Winia took Kat first instead of Claudia!
I hope I have a chance to write that!
If Karin eats Kat for the first time, I think they will run the guild together and live!
“An irresistible urge dejaaaaaaaat!!!!”
Then I will end the postscript by saying hello to Kat!
“Kat, I love you!”
“I was really happy and enjoyed writing ‘The Foreigner with Black Hair’!”
“Kieeeeeeeeeeeeek!”
I will end the postscript here!
Please love “I’m a Student” which has a completely different feeling from “The Foreigner with Black Hair” and “Goo Jin-Ex” which has a slightly similar feeling!
