[Master.]

Terra’s message window appeared in Yu-jin’s vision.

He saw people around him and tried to speak inwardly… wait a minute.

‘Hey, Terra.’

[Yes, Master.]

‘You spent days pondering what to call me, and you ended up with Master?’

It had been a few days since he returned to his dorm after meeting with the principal.

During that time, Terra had been using various names, such as ‘Master, Mastew, Boss, User’, alternating them every day.

He had found it burdensome and embarrassing and told her to just call him by his name.

But Terra, using the serious emoticon ‘(⩌_⩌)’, had said,

[‘Gaia (copy) might have done that, but I don’t want to.’]

[‘I want to call Player Lee Yu-jin something special.’]

[‘Therefore, I cannot simply decide on a name for you. I must carefully consider it.’]

She had firmly rejected his suggestion, stating that she was a different entity from ‘Gaia (copy)’ and that she wanted to address him specially as they were comrades who would spend a lifetime together.

And in the end… she decided on Master?

[Yes, after careful consideration, I have decided on Master.]

‘…Why?’

[Master, Mastew, and Boss were the most appropriate among the names I considered.]

[And most importantly…]

‘Most importantly?’

[I liked it. ദ്ദി(⩌ᴗ⩌ )]

Ah, so she chose it because she liked it.

Well, there was nothing he could do about it.

He nodded reluctantly and asked why she had called him.

A voice recording file named “Voice 1322” appeared in his vision.

At the same time, the ‘■’ button changed to ‘▶’, and the file started playing.

Lee Yu-jin, I have a favor to ask.

Kang Cheol-su’s voice could be heard.

Please restrain yourself until the break, just until the break.

The playback ended.

‘…You can record audio?’

He stared at Terra’s message window with a dumbfounded expression.

[It is a basic function of the System.]

He was about to ask why she hadn’t told him before…

…but he remembered that Terra had been restricted by the real Gaia and couldn’t send messages freely.

‘If audio recording is a basic function, then video recording must be too, right?’

[Yes. Video recording is also a basic function.]

As Terra’s message appeared, a video appeared in his vision.

And in the video…

Crunch! Crunch!

…he was eating a Golden Apple.

‘Wait, when did you record this?!’

[That is an incorrect question.]

[You should ask “Since when have you been recording?”, not “When did you record this?”.]

‘…What?’

Terra, what did you mean?

Not “when”, but “since when”?

He stared at the message, bewildered.

A message appeared, accompanied by Terra’s proud emoticon ‘(⩌ v ⩌)’.

[I have been recording you from the beginning, Master.]

And below that message, a list of “Video Recordings” appeared.

The day I first met Master.

The day Master cleared his first quest.

The day Master received his first reward.

The day Master first cursed at me…

The day Master first…

‘…Wow.’

He could only stare blankly at the countless recordings.

He chuckled at the embarrassing titles of the recordings and looked at Terra’s message, which was still displaying the proud emoticon.

[These are the recordings I have collected since becoming Master’s system.]

He sighed at Terra’s message, which seemed to be seeking praise, and said,

‘Hey, Terra.’

[Yes, Master.]

‘Delete everything except the combat footage.’

The messages that had been popping up stopped.

And after a while…

[…Could you tell me why?]

A message filled with both curiosity and sadness appeared.

…Wait, it was just text in a message window, but how could he sense emotions from it?

He scratched his head and answered Terra’s question.

‘You didn’t get my permission to record me.’

So all of these recordings were practically illegal.

As he explained, a surprised emoticon appeared along with Terra’s message.

[Σ(⊙ㅁ⊙)]

[Understood.]

With that message, all the recordings except the “combat footage” he had mentioned began to disappear.

[Shall I also delete the audio recordings?]

‘Yes, delete everything that I haven’t given permission for.’

[Yes, Master.]

The voice recording file “Voice 1322” vanished from his vision.

[All files have been deleted.]

‘Good job. From now on, only record and film things that I give permission for.’

[Yes, I will do that, except for emergencies.]

Except for emergencies?

Well, he didn’t need to interfere with that.

‘Alright, do that.’

[Yes, Master.]

The conversation ended.

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!

The only sounds that could be heard were the gunshots from the thirteen pistols he was controlling with telekinesis and the sound of targets shattering in the long-range physical test machine.

‘…But why did the conversation shift to video recordings?’

He crossed his arms and pondered.

And it didn’t take him long to remember the audio file with Kang Cheol-su’s voice.

‘Hey, Terra.’

[Yes, Master.]

‘Why did you play the Instructor’s audio file earlier?’

An arrow appeared in his vision.

And it was pointing at…

‘The target? Why the target?’

…the target of the long-range physical test machine.

[Didn’t you promise Instructor Kang Cheol-su? That you would restrain yourself until the break.]

‘Right?’

Then why was the arrow pointing at the target?

[Because of this.]

The arrow, which had been pointing at the target, moved downwards.

He leaned forward and looked inside the testing machine.

He then understood what Terra was trying to say.

‘…When did this pile up?’

A mountain of broken targets filled the machine.

It was like looking at a landfill.

‘This is strange.’

If he remembered correctly, the testing machine had a self-cleaning function.

Then why weren’t the broken targets being cleaned up?

As soon as he thought this, Terra explained.

[As you thought, Master, the testing machine has a cleaning function.]

[However, Master currently has ‘Super Accuracy’ switched to ‘OFF’.]

‘…Did I break the cleaning function?’

He asked, and Terra’s arrow pointed somewhere.

He followed the arrow with his gaze.

And what he saw was…

Crackle, crackle.

…something that looked like the cleaning function, broken and sparking.

The moment he saw that, Kang Cheol-su’s voice echoed in his ears.

‘Restrain yourself until the break.’

“I told you to restrain yourself until the break.”

“…Huh? This isn’t the voice echoing in my mind…”

This voice sounded like he was directly hearing it.

As he thought this, a large hand landed on his head.

“Ah.”

He was indeed directly hearing it.

He turned his head stiffly.

And he saw…

…Kang Cheol-su’s face, looking down at him with a murderous expression.

“H-hello, Instructor.”

He greeted him awkwardly, and…

“Hello, my ass.”

…Kang Cheol-su chuckled menacingly and took something out of his pocket.

“T-that’s…!”

It was none other than the green, shimmering ‘Antidote’.

Pop.

Kang Cheol-su opened the Antidote’s cap.

Yu-jin trembled and shouted,

“I-I’m sorry! Instructor, I was wrong! Please, anything but that Antidote!”

“Lee Yu-jin, you don’t have to apologize. It seems like you’ve done nothing wrong.”

“…Then why are you approaching me with that Antidote?!”

“Lee Yu-jin, don’t you know? You’re currently under a curse.”

“…What?”

He was under a curse? What did he mean?

‘I ate the Golden Apple, so I have Curse Resistance!’

And even if he was cursed, there was no way he wouldn’t know.

The System would inform him, whether it was a buff or a debuff.

He was cursed?

He looked at Kang Cheol-su with a puzzled expression.

Kang Cheol-su forced the Antidote into Yu-jin’s mouth and said,

“The curse of not being able to restrain yourself. That’s the curse you’re under.”

Ah.

That curse.

He thought he was actually cursed.

He watched as the Antidote tilted, the liquid inside spilling into his mouth…

…and then…

Gulp.

Ah, it was summer.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

“Ah, it’s hot…”

The scorching sun beat down on them.

The heat, melting into the air, exhausted everyone, including Yu-jin.

They trudged towards the Grand Hall with weary expressions.

“Wait… it’s only June… why is it so hot?”

Someone complained, but no one answered, too exhausted to even speak.

But even though they didn’t answer, they all nodded weakly, agreeing with the sentiment.

It was the same for Yu-jin.

‘Hey, Terra.’

[Yes, Master.]

‘Am I not a superhuman?’

[You are a superhuman.]

‘Then why do I feel the heat? Shouldn’t superhumans be immune to things like cold and heat?’

[That is incorrect knowledge.]

[Even superhumans cannot defy natural phenomena.]

‘I didn’t feel cold during winter.’

[To be precise, it was after you consumed the Physical Enhancement Pill and gained ‘Cold Resistance’.]

[Try to remember. You felt cold before.]

‘Uh… I think that’s right?’

He vaguely remembered feeling cold before consuming the Physical Enhancement Pill.

But after eating it a few days later and gaining Cold Resistance, he had become immune to the cold.

‘So if I gain Flame Resistance or Heat Resistance, I won’t feel the heat either, right?’

[Yes.]

[Of course, since it’s ‘resistance’, you will still feel extreme heat.]

‘Ah, where can I find a flame-related elixir?’

The heat was so unbearable that he desperately wished for an elixir.

“Ugh… ugh… I’m… I’m going to die…”

Asuka’s dying voice came from beside him.

He turned to look at her.

“I’m… I’m dying…”

Her face was flushed, and sweat was dripping down her skin.

Seeing her state, he hurriedly took out a bottle of cold water from his inventory.

“Hey, Asuka, drink some water, water!”

“W-waaaaater…!”

Asuka screamed like someone who had found an oasis in the desert.

She hurriedly opened the bottle and practically poured the water down her throat.

After finishing the water in one gulp, she looked at him with teary eyes.

“Top Student… this is strange… the water is gone…”

Of course it was gone.

She had just finished it.

He chuckled and handed her another bottle.

“Thank… thank you… I won’t forget this kindness…”

“Yeah, remember this kindness and never forget it.”

Asuka nodded as she chugged the water.

He wanted to pat her head…

‘Wow, her head is steaming.’

…but gave up, thinking it would be too hot.

He looked at Seo-yeon, who was walking on his left.

“…Seo-yeon, are you okay? Aren’t you hot?”

Seo-yeon nodded.

“No, I’m not hot.”

…Unlike Asuka, her face was completely dry, not a single drop of sweat.

He casually touched her hand.

Her skin felt soft and cool.

‘Ah… right.’

Seo-yeon had Heat Resistance…

‘I’m so jealous.’

He thought, and…

Squeeze!

…Seo-yeon grabbed his hand.

Her fingers intertwined with his in the blink of an eye.

“…Why… why suddenly?”

Seo-yeon tilted her head and said,

“You held my hand first.”

…He did?

[No, that’s a lie. That black fox grabbed it.]

“No, Lee Yu-jin grabbed it first.”

[…Did that black fox just read my message?]

Terra sent a message, sounding creeped out.

He replied, telling her that Seo-yeon did that sometimes.

[Black fox… a scary woman.]

He agreed with Terra’s assessment and nodded gravely.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

The summer break ceremony was short and simple.

The principal appeared via teleportation, gave a short speech…

“Everyone, do your internships diligently, and contact us immediately if anything happens. Got it?”

“”Yes!””

“Well then, enjoy your break, and I’ll see you all in three months.”

…and with a few words from their instructor, Kang Cheol-su, announcing the start of summer break, they left the Grand Hall.

“Asuka, you said you were going to intern at Seo-yeon’s Mirinae Guild, right?”

“Yep! Seo-yeon recommended it!”

He patted Asuka’s head as she chirped cheerfully.

“Listen to Seo-yeon, and if anything happens, contact the Instructor or me, okay?”

“Yes, I will! Hehehe.”

Asuka smiled brightly, enjoying his pat.

Seo-yeon, who had been standing next to Asuka, quietly approached Yu-jin.

“Lee Yu-jin, see you in three months.”

She said, caressing the back of his hand with a wistful expression.

He chuckled wryly and replied,

“Yeah, see you in three months.”

“Okay…”

Seo-yeon nodded weakly.

He whispered something encouraging to her.

“Feel free to call or text me if you get bored.”

“…!”

Seo-yeon’s eyes widened.

But only for a moment.

“Okay, I will.”

A small smile appeared on her lips.

It meant she was very satisfied.

Arthur and Noah approached them.

“Where are you guys going for your internship?”

He asked, and Arthur gestured to Noah.

Noah approached Yu-jin and whispered,

“We’re going to the 9th Extermination Unit.”

“What? You guys are?”

“Yes, to be precise, we’re going to help Cardinal Remilia, who went to support the Suppression Squad.”

“So I’ll see you two for the next three months?”

Noah smiled and nodded.

“Yes, please take care of us for the next three months.”

He said, stepping back.

Arthur then approached him and whispered,

“Lee Yu-jin, please take care of me for the next three months.”

“Yeah, you too.”

…Arthur and Noah were going to the 9th Extermination Unit?

Originally, Arthur was supposed to intern at the Round Table in England…

…and Noah at the “Judgment Knights” of the Grand Temple.

Of course, it was foolish to expect the storyline to proceed as planned at this point.

But regardless of the storyline, one thing was certain.

Whenever the main characters gathered around him…

…whether it was a location or an organization…

…a 100% chance of an incident occurring.

‘Terra, what do you think? Will something happen?’

[100%.]

He sighed at Terra’s confirmation and opened his inventory.

He took out four boxes containing Pure Heart Stone Oil and Golden Apples.

“Hey, guys, take this before you go.”

They should at least receive elixirs before leaving.
