Chapter 47 – I Was a Little Worried

Kim Joo-won, from the time I washed and dried my hair in my hand.
It was like that before when I took off my clothes.
Unlike the way he usually did various things with me.
Today, for some reason, even though I am naked in front of her eyes.

“But why did you buy that?”

Just to unleash your own curiosity.
Surprisingly, he didn’t touch me.

“…What.”
“That one in your hand.”
“That?”

Let’s look down without thinking, and my hand is a little different from what I usually wear.
There were underwear that looked like a lot of things.
Dude, did you choose something like this on purpose?

“…Just in case you don’t know.”

Technically speaking, I also bought some underwear.
I could say that none of the underwear I bought had black underwear with lace like this.
If that’s the case, this is the clothes Lee Seo-ha wore before being possessed.

“Oh, our Seoha. Who did you buy that to show?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. I didn’t buy it to show off, I just bought it just in case.”
“Okay?”

What was he thinking when he bought underwear that he could show off to a guy like this?
A guy who just became a woman.
If it were me, I don’t think I could live like this in my sane mind.

“By the way, I think it’s a pretty good idea.”
“… I’m sorry.”

At that moment, Kim Joo-won’s hand was placed on my chest again.
But in his eyes.
Love for no reason.

“Oh sorry.”

And there was a deep remorse mixed with love.

“Even I did not know…”
“What are you talking about. Force kissing and even touching the subject if you feel like it.”
“Then, from today onwards, I will politely ask permission to touch you. Miss Seoha, can I touch your breasts?”
“…What are you saying all of a sudden? Just do what you normally do.”

After pushing away his hand that was gently massaging her chest, she put on her underwear.
“Because I feel like throwing up.”

Come to think of it, I was still naked.
Acknowledge that fact
I seemed to understand a little bit why Kim Joo-won put his hand on my chest.

“You can do whatever you want.”
“…”
“To be lewd.”

Of course, that doesn’t mean I condone him touching my body at will.
Even though it’s already a body that can be touched anyway.
Anyway, Seoha Lee’s body is mine now.

So, without answering his words, I put on stockings and a camisole.
Kim Joo-won’s choice was a dark blue jean skirt and a navy shirt that was slightly brighter than that.

Looking at the color scheme, which is almost similar to the personal color assigned to Lee Seo-ha, who was a man in the original work.
Once again, I wondered what kind of life he lived to be so good at things like this.

“Look, wearing it like that makes it look better than forcibly dressing up as a man.”

I kept my mouth shut because I didn’t feel like answering.
He only looks at Joo-Won Kim who is smiling because he is satisfied with the clothes he wears according to his own request.

“Now then, since you’re dressed, shall we go out, Seoha?”

But he doesn’t stop there.
As if me and I were lovers.
He subtly took my hand and looked at me with the words “Shall we go then?”

“…”

Take a moment to stare at that guy.
With the shoes in hand, I used Dimensional Transfer again to move him out of the academy.

* * *

“So, what are you talking about?”

Cafe.
Me and him each left a cup of coffee in front of us.
He looked at me with a happy look.
And I was sitting there looking at each other with eyes that seemed to be glaring at him.

“Where the hell did you go and what the hell did you do?”

At Kim Joo-won’s curious question, his voice jumped out coldly.
But there’s something my bastard did, so you can’t tell me anything with your voice.

“What?”
“Don’t talk. You haven’t been at the academy for three days.”

Kim Joo-won had a smirk and took an attitude as if he was trying to get over her situation.
At this point, which is still in the early stages of the work, the fact that he disappeared from the academy for three days was definitely not the case in the original work.
Considering that he is not in the 3rd round.

“No, it’s not my part-time job not to come to lectures. But no matter what I do, it’s a little strange that the guy who always comes back to his room at 5pm on weekdays doesn’t come back.”
“…”
“Where the hell did you do that, huh?”

Maybe he had something that wasn’t described in the novel.
It’s a past episode rather than now, but from the point of view of the novel, it’s a future episode.
The thing that disappeared for 3 days was also disappeared this time to benefit from it.

“Well, is there any reason you should be curious about that?”
“…What?”
“That’s right. Isn’t our class leader Si-Hoo Yoon?”

I was speechless at Kim Joo-won’s words.
Like he said, I wasn’t a class leader.
Although the class leader had the duty to take care of the students under his/her class while assisting the instructor, it was reasonable to ask this question.

“You’re just a normal student.”
“What do you mean?”
“I don’t think there’s any reason to answer every question you ask me about what I’ve been doing.”

There were certainly no loopholes in his words, so I couldn’t ask any more.
Just like he said, I don’t have the right to know what he’s been doing like Yoon Shi-hoo.

“Is not it?”

I had to nod my head at the words of Kim Joo-won who asked me back.
I hate to admit it.
I’m saying that, but if I asked more, I felt like I’d get suspicious.

“Well, Seoha, if you asked because you were worried about me, I might be able to answer.”

And Kim Joo-won would not be unaware of that fact.
Not because I was worried about myself with a pure heart.
It was about asking with a different intention in mind.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to live properly.

“What?”
“If you’re worried about me, you can answer comfortably.”

Do I worry about things like you?
What nonsense.
How many things have you done to me so far, why am I worried about you?
I’d rather go somewhere and just die.

“Or not.”

But how?
The reason why I don’t come out saying why I care about you.
Even though I was being bullied by him, I said everything I had to say.

“…Why am I worried about you? Even now, my teeth grind when I think of what happened to you.”
“But.”

Kim Joo-won nodded at what I said.
You know it too
What Ji did to me is not something that can be easily overlooked.

But if so.
Why am I able to sit side by side and have a conversation with this guy so casually?
Obviously, if it was something that happened to him.

“It’s a bit unfortunate.”

It would be normal if you wanted to kill me even if I met your eyes, let alone talk.

“Well, that’s what it used to be.”

After that, Kim Joo-won drank all the way through the iced americano.
He held his phone in his hand and tried to raise his body.
Even being quite outdated is not enough.
The screen is broken, and the more you touch it, the more you touch it, the more you touch it, the more you touch it.

“I enjoyed the coffee, Seoha Lee.”
“Kim Joo-won, wait.”

And, as soon as I saw the guy’s condition, I called him and stopped him.
Did he say he was an orphan?
I have nothing to rely on.
A guy who would have repeated his lonely life several times, having to survive alone without anyone to help him.

“…Honestly, I was a little worried.”

When I remembered that fact, did my heart weaken a little?
I’m already
I put those words out of my mouth as I recalled waiting for 2 hours every day in that guy’s room for 3 days.

“That’s why I asked, what the hell were you doing?”

As soon as Kim Joo-won heard my words, his eyes widened slightly.
“It’s unexpected.” It’s different from what I’ve built so far.
He looked at me again with the expression he shows when he is genuinely happy.

“I haven’t heard of breaking the other side.”

And I can’t do it on the 3rd round.
He brought me words to prove that he had a strength that was incomparable to the 3rd playthrough.

“There were some important things there.”
“If it’s… The world?”
“Uh. You can’t talk about it anywhere. You’re talking about it, okay?”
“Is that possible?”
“Whoops.”

When I asked because I was dumbfounded, he blocked further questions by saying, “I don’t want to talk about it any further.”
Instead, he sees what he really likes.
He looked at me with different eyes than when he was really angry with me or messing around with me.
“I’m going to melt the coffee ice,” He reminded me that I hadn’t taken one sip yet.

“…It’s dangerous.”

However, when he said that he had broken the Underworld alone, a line of worry rose up inside him.
The guy is a regressor.
A person who can start all over again by receiving a new opportunity even if he fails.

He must have gone through several lives, and thanks to that, he knows a lot of things.
Although he will only challenge the world he can completely clear.

“What?”
“It’s dangerous to go into the other side of the world alone. You know what’s going on inside.”

As always, the underworld is a place where unexpected things happen.
In the novel, it is clearly stated that those variables have suffered more than once or twice.
Even if it’s a place you know perfectly, if a variable that he can’t handle explodes.

“Do not do that.”

Kim Joo-won will start a new life as it is.
Then, this world where the main character disappeared…

“Don’t you?”

I nodded at the man’s words.
I don’t like it because it’s like I’m begging a guy who’s always been messing around with me.

“Huh.”
“Okay.”

Even so, if only I could stop him from dying somewhere alone doing something.
If I could use the memory of a stranger who would be involved with Lee Seo-ha, I would do so.

“Can’t you do that next time?”

Did Kim Joo-won really like that I was worried about him?
Normally, he would clearly express his intention to say, “Why me?”
Now, somehow, he was listening to me better than ever.

“Uh.”

I said that and drank my coffee.
Just like he drank.
My vision was dizzy for a moment, perhaps because my body did not drink coffee well.

“Let’s go.”

I wanted to get out of this space quickly, so I quickly got up, grabbed my coffee cup, and walked away.
Return the glass, come out, and wait in front of the cafe for a while.
In an instant, his broken smartphone came to mind.

“Hey, Kim Joo-won.”
“Huh?”

I grab his wrist

“Shut up and follow me.”

I want to hide the various emotions that have come up about revealing my heart to him.
After speaking loudly on purpose, I started dragging him to the phone store I had been passing by.
