The Protagonist’s Younger Sister Revives as a Constellation Episode 065
Seo Naye snorted after hearing my words.
“Ha! What’s an ordinary person who hasn’t even awakened trying to say.”
“Teacher, you’re going to be betrayed soon.”
In the original story, Seo Naye is abandoned by the villain and dies in a dungeon.
Jin Sehyeok, who had been wandering dungeons trying to find any trace of his sister, meets the injured Seo Naye and has a brief conversation, but that was all.
Because she had already been neglected for so long, there was no time for him to help.
Seo Naye’s sneer deepened after hearing my words.
Huh, this isn’t right.
“You don’t seem to know everything. My comrade would never betray me.”
“That’s not true. You haven’t been able to contact them lately, have you?”
“They’re infiltrating, why would they contact me frequently like crazy!”
“Ah, yes. Sure.”
Thinking she had caught me completely, Seo Naye openly mentioned the infiltration.
Seo Naye reacted even more violently to my mention of not being able to contact her comrade than when I had brought up her real name.
Does she have something to feel guilty about? Why is she overreacting like that.
Shrugging my shoulders, I stated the facts I knew.
“Well, anyway, just know that you’re destined to be betrayed and die, Teacher.”
At my words, Seo Naye burst into laughter as if she couldn’t take it anymore. She laughed so much that she wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes.
I continued without caring.
“Shall I help you?”
“Ah, my stomach hurts from laughing too much. You’re really a funny kid, aren’t you?”
“Unlike the art classroom, I’m not always open.”
I turned around and gave back the words Seo Naye had said before.
After laughing for a while longer, Seo Naye suddenly stopped and approached me with a serious expression.
I met her gaze without backing down from her intimidating stare looking down at me.
“Hey, you just live quietly.”
“What?”
“Just shut up and live. I won’t kill you.”
Wow, she trusts the villain that much? I opened my mouth slightly at the complete rejection.
Seo Naye, who had been observing my expression, chuckled and arranged my hair that had fallen on my shoulder.
“I am curious about how you knew my real name though.”
“….”
“You don’t seem to have any intention of telling me, right?”
Even if I wanted to, I couldn’t. If I said I had possessed someone and this was inside a novel, how many people would believe that.
When I showed no reaction, Seo Naye stepped back as if she had lost interest.
“It seems like counseling isn’t needed, so shall I go now.”
Seo Naye left the counseling room, leaving the materials she had brought on the desk.
I stared blankly at her figure, then went to the classroom when the preliminary bell rang.
Walking down the hallway, I pondered what to say next time.
I hadn’t expected her to be persuaded in one attempt.
I would ask her two or three more times, and if she was still the same then, I would let things proceed as in the original story.
Unfortunately, that would be the extent of Seo Naye’s fate.
However, I couldn’t speak to Seo Naye anymore.
The day after our conversation, Seo Naye disappeared without a trace.
The teachers seemed confused too, as if she hadn’t informed the school in advance.
The most confused were probably the students in Seo Naye’s class.
That’s what Kang Seo-u said at the Flower Club meeting, which felt like it had been a while.
Kim Igyeol sitting next to him doesn’t show emotions much, so it’s hard to tell.
“Wow, senior year life is really full of ups and downs.”
“So is your class getting a new homeroom teacher?”
“No? It seems like the grade supervisor will continue as is.”
Well, it would be strange for someone new to be appointed when there are less than two months left until the college entrance exam.
Kang Seo-u looked up at the sky and spoke in a wistful voice.
“It’s a shame.”
“What is?”
Did he already grow attached to Seo Naye even though he transferred not long ago?
Since I couldn’t reveal Seo Naye’s true identity, I could only bite my innocent lips.
“That teacher was good. She didn’t scold me for skipping classes.”
…That’s just because Seo Naye wasn’t interested.
At his tone as if he were sending off an old lover, everyone present let out a big sigh.
Moon Wujin, who had asked out of concern for Kang Seo-u, couldn’t hide his disappointed look.
He said listening to content he already knew twice was boring, then started singing, and finally skipped class.
Is this person who’s reminiscing about how good it was not to get scolded really ranked 2nd? The world sure works in mysterious ways.
Watching the troubled Kang Seo-u, the three of us comforted him.
“Hyung, you shouldn’t skip classes in the first place.”
“Cheer up, hyung. Let’s clear a game quest together later.”
“If you skip class again, I’ll tell Soyun unnie.”
From what I saw at Hunmu, Kim Soyun seemed to handle Kang Seo-u quite well, so I mentioned her instead of my brother.
Kang Seo-u, who had shown no particular reaction to Kim Igyeol’s scolding and Moon Wujin’s comfort, suddenly jumped up from his seat.
“Serin, you’re really a scary kid.”
Thinking of Kim Soyun, he rubbed his goosebump-covered arms and went inside the building.
The rest of us looked at each other and shook our heads simultaneously. Hunter Kang Seo-u and student Kang Seo-u seemed like completely different personalities.
At the sound of the preliminary bell, we also scattered to our respective classes. As I was walking down the hallway, I heard running footsteps behind me.
“Jin Serin!”
Lee Joo-a ran up to me and linked arms.
“Where do you go every lunch break? I looked for you for ages!”
“Ah, sorry. Why were you looking for me?”
“The homeroom teacher told me to bring you.”
Why me again?!
I don’t want to go to the faculty office anymore.
Hearing that they were looking for me urgently, I turned and headed to the faculty office.
“Oh, Serin. You’re here.”
“Yes. I heard you called for me.”
“It’s about the training camp. We’re going the week after next, will you go?”
I just blinked as the homeroom teacher said she should have mentioned it earlier but forgot because she was busy.
Does this school handle all events at once?
The homeroom teacher took out a notice from the file folder and handed it to me.
“If you’re going, get your guardian’s signature and submit it by tomorrow.”
Then she waved her hand, telling me to hurry back since the class bell had rung.
Since “bothered” was written all over her face, I greeted her and left the faculty office.
Our homeroom teacher is quite interested in her students, I suppose. Yeah.
Just because I failed to persuade Seo Naye didn’t mean my tasks disappeared. I still had to check the remaining memory orb and register as a hunter.
Ah, since I’m at it, I should stop by tomorrow and finish the registration.
It happened to be Jin Sehyeok’s day off. When I knocked on the study door where he was, permission to enter was granted.
I quietly opened the door and entered to find Jin Sehyeok handling work.
He’s so busy that he has to work even at home on his day off. I should just say what I need to and leave.
“Oppa, I’m planning to stop by the Association tomorrow.”
“Why?”
There it is again. That strangely irritating expression. How should I describe it? Smug? Proud?
That expression appeared every time I called Jin Sehyeok oppa.
Ever since I saw Jin Sehyeok right after coming out of the maze dungeon and instinctively called him oppa, I completely changed how I addressed him.
Even I thought calling him mister was pretty awful.
“I’m going to register as a hunter.”
“No. Don’t even dream of it.”
“…But I awakened?”
I was speechless at his firm refusal. Even though I thought Jin Sehyeok would dislike it, I never imagined he’d oppose the registration itself when I had awakened.
He had been unable to take his eyes off the documents even after I arrived, but finally looked at me.
He took off the glasses he only wore when reading documents and picked up the jacket beside him as he asked.
“Did anyone see you awaken or use your abilities?”
“Uh, no. Are you going to the Association?”
“I’m not going. Oppa just got off work. It’s fortunate no one saw.”
After hearing my answer, Jin Sehyeok put his jacket back down.
I looked at him with eyes that said ‘then why did you pick it up?’
He turned his head with audible cracks from his neck and spoke nonchalantly.
“If someone had seen, they’d be a witness. I was going to-“
“You weren’t going to say you’d eliminate them, were you?”
“I was going to double-check if there really wasn’t anyone.”
Anyone could tell he hastily changed what he was going to say, but I let it slide without pointing it out.
But still, to oppose it so firmly.
How should I persuade him? Is the only answer really the card about it being illegal if I don’t register within three months?
I had barely parted my lips when he cut me off as if he knew exactly what I was going to say.
“I’ll specially hide it using my authority as Association President.”
At his ridiculous words, I scratched the tip of my nose and muttered.
“Oppa, you’re a hunter too.”
“That’s exactly why I don’t want you to do it.”
Jin Sehyeok whispered quietly about how much filth he’d seen, but I heard it all.
I know too. That Jin Sehyeok has seen everything he didn’t need to see all this time.
