A Regression Guide for Idols Who Lost Their Original Intent Episode 603

“Huh? Stairs are for both going up and going down, right?”

Listening to Kim Dobin recite basic common sense that everyone knows with a stupid face made my neck tense up.

“To go to the hospital, you need to go up the stairs, so why are you going down! Are you trying to abandon me in this semi-basement dorm? Huh?”

“Seeing you talk nonsense, you seem fine…? And abandoning the elderly is a custom that didn’t actually exist in our country.”

In the midst of this, Seo Yehyeon, who had a taste of history major for one year, was correcting wrong historical knowledge.

“Instead of carrying your heaven-like leader on a stretcher, you’re trying to move me like roasted pork barbecue? And revival? Reeviiival? Am I dead? Did I die? Huh? Are you holding a ritual for me to die?”

“There’s another word hyung knows, not that one. ‘To be activated.’ Since hyung fainted and then woke up, saying you were activated is also correct.”

“Doby, as if you would have used that word. Do I look like a fool to you?”

While still being supported on both sides and shaking down Kim Dobin, Seo Yehyeon quietly stepped in front of Kim Dobin to block him.

“We were going to lay you down at home first and then call 119 or call Yeongjin hyung. Should I call 119 right now?”

Seo Yehyeon’s phone already had 119 dialed.

“No wait, don’t you hyungs think about driving me to the emergency room? Huh? What if we get criticized for a celebrity using 119 like a free ambulance for trivial matters.”

When I grumbled, Seo Yehyeon’s expression became subtle.

“What, why.”

“I don’t know whether I should be happy that you’ve finally reached the stage of thinking that far, that you’ve developed a lot, or be pissed that after years of you shouting 119 like that and unconsciously training me too, now when I offer to call for you, you suddenly make normal statements by yourself and make me look like the weird one.”

“? Hyung, do whatever you feel like.”

Seo Yehyeon grabbed the back of his neck, saying it seemed like he should be the one collapsing, not me.

“And we don’t have our car here, hyung. There’s no place to park here, so we left all our cars in our dorm parking lot.”

Kim Dobin, who poked his head out from beside Seo Yehyeon’s shoulder, chimed in.

“Are taxis made of gum or something?”

“Right, come to think of it, we could have called a taxi.”

Facing this chaotic Rev where everyone was just saying what they wanted, my head, which had been dizzy from past memories, gradually calmed down.

As soon as the dizziness completely subsided, I shook off the arms of Gyeon Hajun and Ryu Jaehee who were supporting me on both sides and stood on the stairs with my own two feet.

Standing tall on the stairs, I fell into deep contemplation. To go up or to go down, that was the question.

Should I go to the emergency room now, or just trust the system and live?

Honestly, the fact that every time I received a penalty and rushed to the hospital, nothing abnormal showed up repeatedly, so I’d become numb to it also played a part. That’s why even when my nose bled, I held onto Gyeon Hajun and told him to continue talking about his dream.

But thinking about it, while I wasn’t sure about coughing up blood, nosebleeds from system penalties were a first-time phenomenon, so I decided to schedule a health checkup first.

I deeply reflected inwardly that I seemed to have been neglecting health checkups lately because I was busy. Right, health should always be the top priority. After experiencing the past, I felt the importance of health even more keenly.

Even though I had pushed away their arms, Gyeon Hajun, who was still awkwardly holding his arm up, grabbed me firmly.

“What, did your legs give out? Should I carry you on my back?”

“…I think I should be the one carrying you on my back.”

“You two were clinging together to move me, and now you’re saying you’ll carry me, Jun.”

While having this parade of idiots-like conversation with me, Kim Dobin and Seo Yehyeon felt relieved that I was fine, but Gyeon Hajun, who had witnessed up close the series of processes caused by the system’s bullshit, still seemed anxious.

His still pale, ashen face was telling me that.

Of course, the first victim was me, who had poured precious blood out through my nose. I offered an RIP for my poor hemoglobin that was sadly consumed by the system’s bullshit.

“Even if we don’t go to the hospital right away, let’s have us support you going down the stairs for now, hyung. You lost so much blood, what if dizziness from anemia hits you? Especially since it’s stairs.”

Ryu Jaehee also supported my arm again and tried to dissuade me.

While those two rascals who seemed to think of me as some kind of superhuman might not know, I could clearly see that my copycat and my best friend’s mentals were shaken, so even though I was fine, I obediently let them support me.

Still, receiving this concentrated filial piety from the members felt strange. Previously, they treated me like a virus, making me wear masks and even disinfecting blankets.

When we arrived home, I finally got a proper look at the two’s condition. Seo Yehyeon and Kim Dobin’s upper bodies were soaking wet.

“But hyung, why do you look like a drowned mouse? You too, Doby. And what’s with this puddle in the living room. Did the house have a leak or something?”

Since the guys who didn’t even support me couldn’t have sweated that much, what soaked those two was very likely water.

As soon as Seo Yehyeon was about to open his mouth, Kim Dobin beat him to it.

“Well, when I answered Hajun hyung’s call, you were covered in blood, hyung was unconscious, Hajun hyung was pale as a sheet and couldn’t even get up from the stairs, just barely managing to support hyung, and Jaehee was having a mental breakdown too. So we needed an adult.”

You guys are adults too, man. If you ask if there are adults at home, you’d bring me, Seo Yehyeon, or Gyeon Hajun.

“But no matter how much Yehyeon hyung shook and tried to wake you up, you wouldn’t wake up, so as a last resort…”

So they woke me up by pouring water on my face. I generously decided to include Seo Yehyeon, who got splashed while sleeping, in today’s victim lineup.

“Then why are you wet? Did Yehyeon hyung splash water on you for revenge?”

“Am I you?”

Seo Yehyeon rolled his eyes and retorted.

“No, as an act of atonement, I gave myself a self-inflicted water splash on my head.”

That was so very Kim Dobin-like.

I washed the dried blood off my hands and took off my clothes, scrubbing them hard with foam cleanser to remove the bloodstains, then soaked them in cold water.

I borrowed just the spare pajama pants that Seo Yehyeon brought, put on the top I had brought to wear tomorrow, and lay sprawled on the sofa making a big fuss.

“Oh my, I poured out about ten buckets of nosebleed, so my body is lacking blood! Quickly bring me a glass of water! Should I, who shed ten buckets of nosebleed, fetch and drink water with my own hands?”

“Hajun hyung, was it really ten buckets?”

“No, not that much. If Eden had lost that much blood, he couldn’t be alive. About… one bucket?”

While telling Kim Dobin the truth, Gyeon Hajun, who put a glass of warm water in my hand, pushed me saying not to lie here but to sleep in the room.

And as soon as I entered the room-

“Why did you want to hear about my dream so badly?”

The interrogation began.

I knew this would happen, so I had thought up all my excuses while being supported down the stairs.

“Ah, no, you said it was a dream that kept you from sleeping, so I was curious. What’s a nosebleed? I get them when exchanging punches too.”

“You got a nosebleed without exchanging punches, and there’s no way you’d prioritize simple curiosity over your physical condition.”

It seemed like something he might just let slide, but Gyeon Hajun was sharper and more persistent than I thought.

As I desperately racked my brain looking for excuses, Seo Yehyeon supported me while laying a towel on the wet mattress.

“Compared to coughing up blood, maybe he thought a nosebleed was nothing? Honestly, even though this guy has matured and gained some sense, his reaction was too different from when he coughed up blood. Or maybe Yoon Eden hit his own nose before you came out, and the nosebleed came with a time delay, but he didn’t tell you because it would hurt his pride.”

“No, hyung. Does that make sense? Then why did Eden faint?”

“He said he had a lot of nosebleed. Vasovagal syncope due to sudden blood pressure drop… Wait? What I’m saying actually makes sense?”

I don’t know if he was supporting me or destroying my pride, but anyway.

“…I was trying to catch a mosquito. I didn’t know it would fly toward my nose.”

I chose to become an idiot who punched his own nose trying to catch a mosquito rather than become like Kim Dobin, who believes I’m a sickly leader or system holder who spits blood and bleeds from the nose whenever something’s wrong.

Of course, Gyeon Hajun didn’t seem convinced, but perhaps sensing that I had no intention of telling the real reason, he didn’t press further.

Gyeon Hajun, who witnessed real-time nosebleed and real-time fainting right before his eyes, seemed scared that I might show abnormal symptoms again while sleeping, so he pushed me to the middle saying there needed to be people on both sides of me.

Honestly, while Gyeon Hajun, who’s a light sleeper, might be useful, Seo Yehyeon, who only wakes up when you pour water on his face, seemed pretty useless for detecting abnormal symptoms.

“Wake me up immediately if you feel anything wrong with your body.”

“I told you I got it. You’ll wake up just from me tossing and turning, so what are you so worried about.”

I replied carelessly and pulled Gyeon Hajun’s blanket all the way up to his head, meaning he should hurry up and sleep.

And I received a situation briefing from our home system.

The problem was the memory with Gyeon Hajun that was trying to open as a bug.

The risk system parasitic on the keyword deliberately caused errors because that memory was trying to open as a bug.

But simple errors couldn’t stop the bug, so the risk system touched my trauma and brought out the memory of the day I died to damage my cognitive abilities.

So our home system activated the memory blocking protocol to cut off that memory, but the bug memory and the memory touched by the risk system collided simultaneously with the protocol, causing an error.

So in the end, it had no choice but to use the 4th cycle bug memory that opened first to block the risk system’s interference.

‘Ah, so that was the risk system?’

Our home system, which normally uses a blue UI, does turn red when displaying warning messages, but among the red status windows that appeared before my eyes this time, there was one that was quite.

The font was different, the font.

As I said when the 4th cycle memory opened, my plan to see bug memories using the risk system was unintentionally realized. There was no need to specifically use Cha Yeonho.

Then what’s Cha Yeonho’s use…? Even after regressing six times, he knows nothing, so I can’t even use him as an internal whistleblower. KJ, who’s in the eye of the typhoon, would be much more helpful.

And besides realizing that Cha Yeonho is utterly useless, there’s one more thing I realized here.

The memory with 6th cycle Gyeon Hajun is the memory that can reveal all the keywords.

Otherwise, there’s no reason why the risk system parasitic on the keyword would stir up trauma-inducing memories to prevent that memory from playing.

So to prevent this damn risk system from turning me into an idiot again, I absolutely had to find the 6th cycle memory.

As soon as I gained this realization, I immediately shook Gyeon Hajun awake.
