The Protagonist’s Younger Sister Revives as a Constellation Episode 050
The festival is right after midterms end in a week, so we need to start preparing from now or something.
Lee Joo-a seemed excited since yesterday, so this was why.
The class meeting that had been proceeding quietly with the Class President at the helm was instantly consumed by madness. Everyone passionately argued that this was good or that was good.
“Let’s do a cafe, I have a certificate!”
“What’s the point if only you know how? We don’t know.”
“Ah. But you know how to pour drinks, right?”
It was complete chaos.
“Hey hey! You know that even if we decide now, if it gets cut at the grade meeting later, we can’t do it, right?”
“Class President just needs to not lose at rock-paper-scissors!”
“…Is there anyone good at rock-paper-scissors?”
At the Class President’s question, students each raised their hands claiming they were good at it.
The meeting content kept changing abruptly, but no one cared. It was just like these kids who had surrounded me and chattered away since my first day at this school.
Lee Joo-a, who had been standing quietly next to the Class President, clapped her hands to gather everyone’s attention.
“Rather than that, shouldn’t we decide on the booth first, guys?”
She spoke with a grin, but why did it feel like a cold wind was blowing behind Lee Joo-a?
The Class President must have thought the same as me, as he shivered.
“The Vice President is right. Let’s get candidates first.”
The meeting resumed and the candidate list was steadily filled.
“Drinking the worst beverage combinations? Who would come to do this!”
“It’s fun though?”
“No way. We’re removing this one.”
After excluding the ridiculous booths from the list of about 10, exactly three remained.
Haunted house, tarot cafe, photo zone.
Whichever of the three it became, they were popular booths so it would probably change at the grade meeting later.
Thinking that, I wrote “photo zone” on my voting paper. I really liked the point that it would be free on the day itself.
But contrary to my opinion, I was defeated by the principle of majority rule.
To think that the photo zone, where I could comfortably go around and have fun on festival day, lost to something like a tarot cafe where you have to greet customers all day long…
“Decided on tarot cafe, bang bang bang! Now that the booth is settled, from now on we’ll select the king of rock-paper-scissors!”
The Class President pushed up his glasses and set the mood with a more serious voice than when deciding the booth.
The method for selecting the king was to beat the Class President.
Everyone in the classroom raised their hands above their heads.
“Rock, paper, scissors!”
⌈Baby, paper!⌋
At Anser’s sudden words, I changed from fist to paper.
Sighs could be heard here and there. The Class President’s hand raised above his head was clenched in a fist.
‘Anser, you came? What about the Art Classroom?’
⌈The blue-haired one is there.⌋
So Kang Seo-u came and that’s why she came to me. I nodded slightly.
The Class President shouted the chant again. At the same time, Anser whispered.
⌈This time it’s scissors.⌋
⌈This time scissors too.⌋
⌈Now it’s rock!⌋
I followed Anser’s words like a machine that outputs when you input.
As if she had gone into the Class President’s mind and come back, everything she said was correct.
I unexpectedly made it to the final three.
“This time the three of you do it. Now, rock, paper, scissors!”
⌈Rock!⌋
I folded back the fingers I had half-opened to make scissors.
Looking around, the two people besides me had both made scissors.
Huh, wait a minute.
“Wow, you got it in one go?”
“Serin, you’re really good! Come to the grade meeting with me!”
“Me? No, I was just lucky. Let’s do it again.”
The Class President dismissed my opinion, saying luck was also skill. The other kids also nodded and chimed in as if agreeing with the Class President’s words.
I was on the lucky side, but this was the first time I pretended to be this good. I just reflexively threw what Anser told me and got this result.
With a slight suspicion, I questioned Anser.
‘You used a skill, didn’t you.’
⌈Ahem, I don’t like seeing baby lose to humans.⌋
Even so, how could you use a skill for something like this.
To cut to the conclusion, our class was decided on tarot cafe.
At the grade meeting I was dragged to reluctantly, there were three other classes besides ours that wanted tarot cafe, but I won.
Since I went after firmly warning Anser not to do that, it was purely my own luck.
The class kids praised me for protecting the tarot cafe, then divided roles and decided on supplies.
“But who’s going to read the tarot?”
“It’s just for fun anyway. How about having the person who fits the atmosphere best do it?”
Why are you looking at me when you say that.
At the gazes that gathered all at once, I shook my head vigorously. Absolutely not!
“Serin fits it best.”
“Yeah. She has a subtly cynical atmosphere so it seems good?”
“The person reading tarot should definitely be blonde!”
That last comment was just forced, wasn’t it.
“Serin, how about it? Let’s do it! I’ll prepare a pretty cloak too!”
“No, I’m shy with strangers-”
“You know tarot readers cover their faces, right? And I’ll exempt you from cafe work!”
“Deal!”
Reading tarot would be better than cafe work.
When I agreed, the girls who had been persuading me high-fived with satisfied faces.
I muttered with belated worry.
“But I don’t know how to read tarot.”
“It’s okay! We don’t know either!”
“No one believes it anyway, so you can just say what you want.”
They patted my shoulders while their eyes sparkled. They confidently added that I should just trust them with the costume.
I think I made the wrong choice somehow?
“Wujin, you’re not good at mobile games.”
“Let’s do it again.”
Kang Seo-u teased Moon Wujin with a gentle smile. Moon Wujin, with his competitive spirit activated, urged him to change games.
Behind them, the plants Moon Wujin had been tending could be seen.
Kang Seo-u, who used to come find me when bored, had become close with Moon Wujin at some point.
Unlike Kim Igyeol who still put up walls, Moon Wujin treated Kang Seo-u warmly.
Moreover, with the common ground of liking games, it was natural that he would win Kang Seo-u’s heart.
I sat on the chair Moon Wujin had brought over, propped my chin on my hand, and looked at them.
Those two are playing the game, so why am I here.
Sensing my gaze, Kang Seo-u spoke without taking his eyes off his phone.
“I told you to play too.”
“I won’t. That’s boring.”
Right, I was here because of Kang Seo-u.
Since my body didn’t really need to eat, I sometimes used the excuse of having an upset stomach to send only my friends to the cafeteria.
I mainly spent time reading books in places without people, and I was planning to do the same today, but Kang Seo-u found me and dragged me here.
Doesn’t an S-rank Hunter have any work to do? Why is he always at school?
While it was right for a student to be at school, Kang Seo-u, who treated finding me like a game, was a bit tiresome.
I was supposed to meet Joo-a at the library later.
I just fidgeted with the book on my lap while looking for an opportunity to escape.
It was then that Kim Igyeol, who had been quiet as if erasing his presence, opened his mouth.
“Have you studied much for the exam?”
“…Exam?”
“The midterms are next week.”
“Wow, I completely forgot about the exam.”
I had so many things to think about that I completely forgot.
No wonder Lee Joo-a, who usually wouldn’t even glance at the library, suggested going there.
The suddenly created schedule was bewildering.
“Should we all study together?”
Kang Seo-u casually threw out the suggestion without taking his eyes off his phone.
It felt strangely awkward hearing this from someone who probably wouldn’t even bring writing materials on exam day.
“You study too, oppa?”
“Why are you like this? I’m in the top ranks of the entire school, you know?”
When I asked back in surprise, an even more unexpected answer came back. It was interesting as these settings that didn’t appear in 【The End】 poured out.
“But then why did you repeat a year?”
“Insufficient attendance days.”
“Huh?”
“I didn’t submit the official documents on time. So my attendance wasn’t recognized.”
Kang Seo-u crunched the lollipop he was sucking on. It seemed like he was expressing his frustration, which was amusing.
School rules are merciless even to Hunters.
“This damn high school student label ends this year.”
Saying he would definitely make it so, Kang Seo-u forgot about his game, clenched his fist, and looked up at the sky. I’m not sure who he was making that promise to.
“So let’s study together.”
“Wouldn’t it be better if we each studied on our own?”
“No way! I don’t know about those guys, but you absolutely have to study with me.”
