[Me]
– I’m sorry for breaking our promise.
– Let’s definitely eat together tomorrow.

[Asuka]
– …Then let’s eat breakfast together tomorrow.

[Me]
– Okay, I’ll definitely keep this promise.

[Asuka]
– You absolutely must this time! Absolutely! (˙ Д ˙ )۶

[Me]
– Alright.

After sending additional messages to Asuka, Yu-jin lowered his wrist wearing the smartwatch.

Then he picked up the iced coffee on the table and took a sip.

Grey, who was drinking a vanilla shake across from him, looked at Yu-jin with a mischievous smile.

“Is that your girlfriend?”

Gulp.

“No, she’s a friend.”

To be precise, a female friend.

“Oh really?”

At Yu-jin’s words that the person he was texting wasn’t his girlfriend, Grey’s gaze turned to his smartwatch.

However, while an ordinary commercially available smartwatch might be readable, the smartwatch specially made by the Academy had a privacy protection magic engraved on it that prevented anyone but the wearer from seeing the screen.

Therefore, even Grey couldn’t check…

“Asuka? It doesn’t seem like that female friend thinks that way?”

Grey giggled and stirred the straw in her shake.

At those words, Yu-jin recalled that Grey had the ‘Wind Control’ skill as well as ‘Clairvoyance’.

“No, noona. Do you really want to see your much younger brother’s privacy that badly? Even using a skill for it?”

“Tsk, you and I are only about 10 years apart… Wait. How did you know I used a skill?”

Grey stopped stirring her straw and looked at Yu-jin with puzzled eyes.

At this, Yu-jin realized his mistake for a moment but outwardly tried to appear logical as he answered her question.

“There’s only one way to check my messages without breaking the privacy protection magic. That’s using the Clairvoyance skill, and I can see the magic power swirling in your eyes as evidence that you used the Clairvoyance skill.”

“Ah.”

Grey nodded with a look of understanding.

Then she said with a fond smile.

“As expected of that unni’s son, you’re smart.”

Grey said this as she slurped her shake.

Watching her, Yu-jin inwardly let out a sigh of relief and gulped down his coffee, and a moment later Grey, who had put down her empty shake cup on the table with a thud, wiped the smile off her face and put up a magic barrier around them.

And as she looked at Yu-jin with a rather serious face, Yu-jin also looked at her with a solemn attitude.

Grey let out a shallow sigh and said,

“Yu-jin, listen to noona well. You’re in a very dangerous state right now.”

At Grey’s warning that he should be careful for a while, Yu-jin immediately understood why.

That a top-tier Fallen, a Named was really in Korea, and that the Named was targeting him.

Yu-jin let out a deep sigh as his denied speculation now became certain.

‘Ah, this is screwed.’

It was only the beginning of the story.

To be noticed by a Named already.

The distortion caused by random encounters seemed too great.

‘…Should I think it’s fortunate though?’

For some reason, since the Named was targeting him, the main characters would be relatively safe, and thinking about it carefully, it didn’t seem like he needed to worry just yet.

As long as he didn’t encounter the Named right away, there should be enough time to prepare.

‘For that, I need to know which Named it is first.’

Since each Named had different strategies, to prepare he needed to know which Named was targeting him, but he didn’t need to worry about that.

Grey in front of him would tell him.

“It seems a Named is targeting me, given that you say I’m in great danger.”

“…Your’e good at deduction too, huh?”

Grey nodded and continued.

“That’s right, as you said, a Named is targeting you.”

Yu-jin felt somewhat relieved at those words, because it was one Named targeting him, not several.

If it were multiple, it would have been quite troublesome.

No matter how well he strategized and made thorough preparations, he wouldn’t be able to survive, but it was different if it was just one.

Assuming of course that there was sufficient preparation and help from someone of high-tier or above.

He could not only handle it but even defeat it.

‘…I hope Kang Cheol-su or Grey is there when I encounter the Named.’

That way, he wouldn’t have to ask them to trust him or do as he says.

“So who is this Named?”

“Enchantress.”

Grey frowned as if just uttering the Fallen’s name was disgusting, and continued.

“That filthy, disgusting bitch is targeting you.”

“Enchantress…”

“So you need to be especially careful, that bitch exerts a fatal power over men, befitting her name Enchantress.”

Yu-jin nodded heavily at Grey’s words as she added, “You got it?”

But contrary to his outward appearance, inwardly.

‘Oh, sweet.’

He was rejoicing at this unexpected good fortune.

This was because, although Enchantress was a top-tier Fallen, unlike other Named, only her ‘Charm’ skill was very powerful, while her physical abilities were somewhat lacking.

Therefore, if one’s mental defense was strong enough, she wasn’t too difficult to deal with.

Of course, the problem was that Enchantress’s Charm rank was ‘S+’.

But there was no need to worry.

If the orthodox method didn’t work, he could solve it with an unorthodox method.

‘I wonder if the instructor will be at the Production Department tomorrow.’

He had something to make, and now he had something to ask for too, but well… since he was paying, they would probably listen.

Thinking this, Yu-jin drank the remaining coffee in his cup.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

Having finished the heavy talk, Grey, as if she had never been serious, showed a light attitude like a friendly neighborhood sister and took Yu-jin to various places.

They ate together at a restaurant with quality not inferior to the Academy’s meals.

After the meal, they walked around the streets eating sweet things like ice cream or waffles.

When they saw men’s clothing stores, she bought clothes that suited Yu-jin, taking care of various things.

As time passed like that, and day turned to dusk.

Screech.

Thanks to the car Grey had brought, Yu-jin was able to return to the Academy comfortably.

“Thank you for driving me, noona.”

“It’s nothing, go in safely. Let’s see each other again sometime.”

Yu-jin nodded with a smile at Grey’s words, and just as he was about to open the car door and get out.

“Hey, Yu-jin.”

Grey called out to stop him.

At this, Yu-jin looked at her with one foot out the door.

She hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth and said,

“Will you… join the Subjugation Unit?”

At that question, Yu-jin immediately nodded.

“Yes, I will join.”

“…Why?”

Why, of course to get the talent ‘Wicked Blade’.

…That was part of it, but truthfully, he also genuinely wanted to join the Subjugation Unit.

“Because I hate Fallen.”

For some reason, Yu-jin had intensely disliked the existence of Fallen ever since he encountered the game ‘Arena Academy’.

Despite them being mere graphic bits, and that feeling intensified when the world of ‘Arena Academy’ became reality.

He hated Fallen.

They were disgusting.

He wanted to kill them.

He wanted to exterminate all of them from this world.

That was why he wanted to join the 9th Extermination Unit that specialized in subjugating Fallen.

Perhaps understanding his feelings.

“…I see?”

Grey looked at Yu-jin with a somewhat complicated expression.

Then she let out a short sigh and took out a smartphone from inside her coat, and she tapped Yu-jin’s smartwatch with that smartphone.

[Grey-nim has requested to exchange phone numbers. Do you accept? YES / NO]

A phone number exchange alert appeared on the smartwatch.

Yu-jin pressed the YES button.

[Grey-nim’s phone number has been saved.]

Then Grey said,

“Save it as ‘Pretty Noona’.”

Hmm… he knew she was pretty, but wasn’t it a bit much to tell someone to save it like that herself?

But Yu-jin obediently followed her words.

He owed her a lot for today, after all.

[The name has been changed from ‘Grey-nim’ to ‘Pretty Noona’.]

At the sound from the smartwatch, Grey nodded as if satisfied.

Then she waved her smartphone and said,

“I’ll be in Korea for a while, so call me if you’re bored or something happens. Especially, if you meet Enchantress, you must call, okay? Got it?”

“Yes, noona.”

“Alright, then I’ll see you during your break.”

“Yes, see you then.”

Thud.

With those final words, Yu-jin got out of the car and closed the door.

Vroom!

Her sports car let out a rough engine sound, and in an instant, it moved away from the Academy, soon disappearing from Yu-jin’s sight.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

“Whew… today was another eventful day.”

After returning to the dormitory and taking a shower, Yu-jin sat down at his desk rather than the bed.

Then he took out a brand new notebook from under the desk and opened it.

“I could record it on the smartwatch, but… just in case.”

Muttering this, Yu-jin gripped a pen and began recording the information he had gained today in the notebook.

It’s not that my entire existence transmigrated, but the possibility of me transmigrating into a parallel world version of myself has arisen.

Reason = I have biological parents

Crackle.

But I have no memories of this place at all.

Reason = It seems the developer or system intervened. Or maybe… a foreign god intervened.

Crackle crackle.

My parents’ abilities seem similar to the cheats I use (they might be the same)

Reason = Father’s main weapon was a gun, and like the cheat ‘Super Accuracy’, he could penetrate demonic energy and magic power, and had perfect accuracy.

Reason 2 = Mother’s ability seems to be related to magic power. For example, something like Infinite Mana (I couldn’t hear in detail due to sudden mental abnormality, but I have a feeling it’s like that.)

The voice I heard when the mental abnormality occurred. What was that?

Crackle crackle crackle.

The emotions I felt from that voice were clearly ‘longing’, ‘worry’, and ‘sadness’.

Related to me?

Or related to Grey?

Anyway, in my opinion, it seems like that was ‘Mother’.

Then could it be that Mother is…

Crackle crackle crackle crackle–!

….

……

Snap.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

The next morning.

“…What? Why was I sleeping at my desk?”

‘I’m sure I laid down on the bed after showering?’

“Don’t tell me I sleepwalked?”

But he never had that in his previous world?

“No, there’s no way I could have sleepwalked.”

Because he had the Tenacious Mind (A) talent, so it was impossible.

But why was he sitting at his desk?

“Hmm……”

Yu-jin crossed his arms and thought carefully about yesterday’s events.

But still, there were no changes in his memories.

Grey drove him to the Academy.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, he took a shower.

He lay down on the bed and tried to sleep, but… why was he sitting at the desk?

While thinking about this, Yu-jin suddenly noticed something placed on the desk.

“…Wait, what’s this?”

It was a notebook, and it was practically new.

But something was written on the first page.

“Whose handwriting is this?”

‘It’s not my handwriting?’

But just in case, Yu-jin picked up a pen and wrote in the notebook.

However, as expected, the handwriting in the notebook and the handwriting he just wrote were different.

If his handwriting was a bit flowing, the handwriting in the notebook was more… neat?

“But why are there so many square hieroglyphs? Did someone enter my room while I was away?”

But that thought only lasted for a moment.

“Hmm, no. They said the dormitory security was thorough. No one could have entered.”

Then what was this notebook?

Who left it here?

“…This is baffling.”

Yu-jin stroked his chin and checked the contents of the notebook.

No, just as he was about to check.

Ding.

[Asuka]

– Top Student! You didn’t forget we’re having breakfast together today, right? (・∀・)

A message came from Asuka.

At this, Yu-jin smiled and replied.

[Me]

– Of course I didn’t forget.

[Asuka]

– That’s a relief. ヾ(*´∀`*)ノ

– Then I’ll contact you after I wash up. See you soon! ✧*。٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و✧*。

[Me]

– Okay, see you in a bit.

“Cute.”

Yu-jin lowered his smartwatch and got up from the chair, and before heading to the shower.

“…Hmm, what was I about to do just now? What was it?”

He felt like he had forgotten something, but that feeling only lasted for a moment.

“…It probably wasn’t important this time as well…”

“Huh? This time as well?”

Why did I say ‘this time as well’?

For a moment he felt puzzled, but since he couldn’t think of an answer to that question Yu-jin just assumed he had spoken unconsciously and headed to the shower.

I don’t think so. I think his parents are actually outer gods (even if they birthed him as humans), helping him through the mediation of the system which is protecting him from the mental corruption.

I think the reason he’s an orphan in earth is because he’s not from earth. He probably got sent to earth from this other world by the power behind the system.
