Episode 50
“System, you fucking crazy bastard, insane piece of shit, goddamn lunatic…”
I dragged out every curse word I’d ever learned and muttered them under my breath. Anyone who saw me might brand me as some crazy fool, but after going through a life-threatening crisis, I couldn’t care less about such things.
I stared aimlessly at the ceiling until I grew tired of even that and let my eyelids fall.
‘…It was warning me.’
Not to get any closer to the main characters. To immediately stop meeting them on weekends and going around having fun together.
Until now, when we only met at school or when I was semi-forcibly made to walk home with them, the System had never gotten this angry, so spending time with them today like we were on a date must have been the problem.
‘It’s not like I wanted to spend the whole day hanging out with them.’
It was always like this. When I thought about it, among all the incidents that had earned the System’s wrath, not once had it truly been my fault.
‘It just wanted to make me the criminal.’
It was incredibly narrow-minded. Since it didn’t want to blame its beloved main protagonists, it tried to pin every incident and every time its feelings got hurt on me. Not satisfied with that, it even absurdly shifted all responsibility onto me and punished me for it.
‘Fuck, but does that mean it can just try to kill someone out of nowhere?’
The antagonist’s role is so important within the story. When did it stop using me as the convenient bad guy with no morals, only to try and discard me the moment I seemed to stray a little?
No matter how I thought about it, I felt like I should rip that brain out and throw it in a blender. That way it wouldn’t cause incidents with such pathetic thinking. Of course, it wouldn’t be able to think at all, but that would probably be better.
‘…If the System even has a brain to begin with.’
I buried my face completely in my palms. Despite wanting to throw a tantrum and cry, it was so absurd that not even tears would come.
“…I really almost died.”
I’d acted like I was fine, but there was no way that was actually true. Of course, seeing that the motorcycle ultimately didn’t hit me, I was certain this was still just a warning, that the System wouldn’t kill me right away. But that didn’t change the fact that I’d nearly lost my life in an instant.
I bit down again on my lower lip, which had swollen up again despite having barely recovered. Something shamelessly appeared in my vision without any consideration.
Would you like to check the profile information for ‘Main Character Seo Jung-hoo’?
I’d been desperately trying to ignore the thoughts that kept coming to mind.
“Psycho System bastard…”
It was definitely mocking my sickly pale appearance. Otherwise, there was no reason for such a system window to appear before my eyes when I hadn’t even thought of Seo Jung-hoo first.
Despite my viciously contorted expression, the blue window showed no signs of disappearing and remained vivid. Soon another window appeared beside it.
Would you like to check the profile information for ‘Main Character Kwon Tae-min’?
“Bullshit.”
I won’t look! I’m not interested!
I barely managed to swallow down the urge to scream that. Even though my refusal should have been expressed, the system windows were being particularly uncooperative today, hovering in my vision.
Since the System was probably the one controlling the system windows, it was natural in a way. It must want to torment me by doing such petty things.
With an irritated gesture, I swept my hair back and reluctantly moved my eyes. The window that had refused to listen when I said no now eagerly changed to display a long text as if it had been waiting.
Name: Seo Jung-hoo
Age: 18 years old (Seolam High School, 2nd year, Class 3)
Role: One of the main characters in the novel ‘Only Two’
Background: This individual grew up in a wealthy and harmonious family, developing a gentle and considerate nature… (Show more)
Current Emotional State: Worry, guilt, irritation, anxiety, affection
Inner Thoughts: “He needs to read my message quickly so I can at least guess how the kid is doing.”
As expected, he seemed to have returned home. Pushing aside strange feelings, my gaze that had been quickly scanning the window suddenly stopped.
What? Affection?
‘…And what’s this about a message.’
Had I ever shared phone numbers with Seo Jung-hoo? I don’t think so.
I scanned the system window with a sour expression, then turned my head to the side.
Name: Kwon Tae-min
Age: 18 years old (Seolam High School, 2nd year, Class 8)
Role: One of the main characters in the novel ‘Only Two’
Background: This individual has been nurturing an obsession with Main Soo since meeting him in childhood, and his nature is violent and twisted… (Show more)
Current Emotional State: Worry, anxiety, impatience, helplessness, affection
Inner Thoughts: “I wonder if his body is okay…”
Kwon Tae-min also had the unbelievable word ‘affection’ embedded in his profile.
Definitely, up until now, there had never been anything like affection written in Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min’s emotional states. Moreover, ‘current emotional state’ was supposed to change moment by moment, yet suddenly there was affection.
‘This isn’t some dating sim game.’
I narrowed my eyes at the unbelievable sight, then retraced my memories up until before I collapsed.
Up until the moment we had just entered the park, the atmosphere hadn’t been particularly bad. I had thrown quite a tantrum, but that was nothing new, and Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min were people who had stubbornly built an ‘intimate relationship’ even while dealing with me like that. If we had just spent time together and parted ways like that, I would have been surprised by the appearance of the word ‘affection,’ but it wouldn’t have been incomprehensible.
But didn’t we have the worst possible ending at the park?
‘…I think I cursed them out with every swear word imaginable.’
Don’t they have any pride? To follow me all the way to the emergency room after getting cursed out like that by me. For a moment, an unfamiliar and unpleasant strange emotion surged up, but my body couldn’t endure the fatigue and it quickly subsided powerlessly.
