Episode 73

Inner thoughts: “First, getting Yu Baek-hwa out of that house should be the priority…”

Setting the house on fire to get Yu Baek-hwa out of the house?

‘Why would he even think of such extreme methods just to get Yu Baek-hwa outside?’

I didn’t think he would actually set a real fire and cause an incident. But if he had thought of such a violent and primitive method among countless options, there must be a reason.

‘It’s not like he’s poor or anything.’

Though less than Kwon Tae-min, Yu Baek-hwa was also from a wealthy family, no less than any young master. Moreover, his older brother Yu Bae-hyun, who currently held all the family assets, cherished Yu Baek-hwa dearly, so he could live without worrying about money for the rest of his life.

So there couldn’t be a problem with the house itself that would make him think like that. How much was that house worth anyway.

‘Then why on earth?’

As always, I couldn’t follow Seo Jung-hoo’s way of thinking at all. Knowing what Yu Baek-hwa had been through recently, it was a thought I shouldn’t dare have, but I was relieved and relieved again that Seo Jung-hoo was interested in Yu Baek-hwa instead of Lee Chung-hye as in the novel.

Lee Chung-hye let out a small breath and slowly turned her head. Then she caught sight of the System window that had been flickering beside her.

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 person has developed an obsession with Main Soo since meeting him in childhood, and his nature is violent and twisted… (Show more)

Current emotional state: Worry, anxiety, devotion, anger

Inner thoughts: “He’s been looking worse lately. Even if Jung-hoo and I are significantly included in the reason, we can’t just leave it alone.”

It was fewer emotions than Seo Jung-hoo’s state. But while it was just divided into detailed forms, the depth was no less than Seo Jung-hoo’s.

Still, it was fortunate that he wasn’t thinking crazy thoughts like Seo Jung-hoo. Shouldn’t at least one of the three be somewhat normal? Of course, this didn’t apply to Seo Jung-hoo and Yu Baek-hwa at all, so the normal person here referred entirely to Kwon Tae-min.

Even so, it was still disgusting to look at. It was even more so because Kwon Tae-min was a childhood friend who had been together for quite a long time. I had no intention of interfering with their precious romance, but that didn’t mean I could erase my annoying feelings.

Especially since that romance was facing disaster rather than progress. It was even more irritating because it was a matter of life and death for Yu Baek-hwa.

‘So what are you going to do about it.’

Lee Chung-hye couldn’t act like a proper Main Soo according to the content of the novel ‘Only Two’ at this point. Although her actions would naturally be forced when standing in front of Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min, Lee Chung-hye didn’t have confidence to do more than that, and the two of them were already deeply infatuated with Yu Baek-hwa and wouldn’t look back at Lee Chung-hye.

‘…Though they don’t seem to know it well yet.’

Even that was ridiculously absurd.

‘Yu Baek-hwa… really doesn’t seem to have even the slightest interest in those two guys.’

It was obvious even with eyes closed that Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min liked Yu Baek-hwa. But when considering the opposite case, I wasn’t sure.

Whether he was unconsciously showing defensive behavior due to childhood trauma, or whether he was pushing them away because he really disliked them.

In a situation where the System forced him to be a villain, not all the words and actions that stabbed the two people would be sincere, but if he had no feelings at all, they wouldn’t have been expressed outwardly in the first place.

So Yu Baek-hwa still disliked Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min.

Lee Chung-hye swallowed a sigh and moved the fingers of the hand supporting her chin to tap her cheek. Then she brought up a new System window before her eyes.

Opening profile information for ‘■■■ Lee Chung-hye’.

Name: Lee Chung-hye

Age: 18 years old (Seolam High School, 2nd year, Class 1)

Role: ■■■ of the novel ‘Only Two’

Background: This person receives love from people around her due to her naturally kind and gentle nature… (Show more)

Current emotional state: Not disclosed to the person.

Inner thoughts: Not disclosed to the person.

I checked just in case, but there were still parts covered by mosaic. Judging from the conversation I had with Yu Baek-hwa on the phone before, it probably said ‘Main Soo’.

‘Is it hidden so that the person can’t see their own role?’

I had never asked Yu Baek-hwa, so I couldn’t know the answer. With shocking incidents happening every other day, there was no way to check and confirm such trivial information.

Tsk, Lee Chung-hye clicked her tongue irritably and rolled her eyes to the side.

Opening profile information for ‘Villain Yu Baek-hwa’.

Name: Yu Baek-hwa

Age: 18 years old (Seolam High School, 2nd year, Class 8)

Role: ■■■ of the novel ‘Only Two’

Background: Content not disclosed during novel development.

Current emotional state: Resignation, emptiness, hatred, irritation, agitation

Inner thoughts: “Why do they keep contacting me, crazy bastards. I should just block them all…”

It seemed he was being bothered by Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min again.

‘I thought he didn’t even check messages since he kept leaving my messages on read, but it seems he pays attention to those guys’ contacts.’

Lee Chung-hye, dumbfounded, roughly grabbed the phone that had been lying face down on the desk. She tapped the black screen to turn it on and immediately opened the message window.

When she entered the second room from the top, countless messages sent to Yu Baek-hwa poured out. Speech bubbles that accumulated daily, asking if anything happened today, if those guys sent by the System came to beat him up again, inquiring about his well-being once a day.

Among them, the speech bubbles Yu Baek-hwa had sent in reply were only three or four. Not three or four in a day, but three or four out of all the messages Lee Chung-hye had exchanged with him so far.

Compared to Lee Chung-hye who sent contact more than five times every day, it was less than a mouse’s tail.

When Lee Chung-hye reluctantly made a phone call, Yu Baek-hwa would finally answer and start talking. Despite not replying to messages so much, he seemed to have a lot to say during calls.

It wasn’t too bad to listen to his chattering as background music, so Lee Chung-hye just left Yu Baek-hwa alone. Really, no matter how many times I thought about it, it was amazing how different the brothers were.

Then, two silhouettes could be seen passing by the window that illuminated the hallway. Lee Chung-hye, who had unknowingly relaxed her frown, furrowed it again and roughly scanned outside the classroom.

‘…Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min?’

Had they not gone home yet and remained at school?

If there had been related content when reading their thoughts from the profile information earlier, I would have noticed, but since Seo Jung-hoo was thinking about setting fire to a house, I didn’t expect it at all. It seemed that topic had come up during their conversation.

Lee Chung-hye slowly blinked.

Just like how both people’s minds were completely filled with Yu Baek-hwa even during exam period, the fact that those two remained at school until this time must also be related to Yu Baek-hwa. Either they were going to have some important discussion, or they were really planning to set a fire…

“We have no choice but to report it as soon as possible. After catching evidence.”

Lee Chung-hye froze for a moment.

Report it? Catch evidence?

Since Seo Jung-hoo and Kwon Tae-min quickly passed by this classroom, no more voices could be heard. So Lee Chung-hye hurriedly got up and carefully opened the classroom door.

Poking her head out, she listened carefully toward the two people passing through the hallway and moving away.
