She Became the Female Protagonist of the Netorare Game. 227

Chapter 227 – Starting Over (2)

On the way to school with Siu.
Now that they were holding hands so naturally, there was nothing to say.

Lee Ji-eun, who suffered even from Si-woo’s confession.
Siwoo’s characteristic, which is upgraded every time, has reached its end, and now it has started from the state of being in a relationship.

– It’s a pretty good start, isn’t it?

“Shut up.”

Lee Ji-eun is making noise in my head.
At her voice, I automatically spit out the word loud.

“What did you just say?”

“Ah… No. Sorry.”

Siwoo makes a puzzled expression.
Fortunately, it seemed that he hadn’t heard my nonsense(?) As he was immersed in his own story.

But it looks like it’s slightly swollen.
He looked at me and continued his speech.

“Are you listening to what I said?”

“Radish… Of course. Mind… Wasn’t it about a magical girl?”

The story of a sudden magical girl.
I couldn’t help but be embarrassed to hear that story, but since this world was a game in the first place, I couldn’t help it.

Now, monsters come out, monsters come out, and magical girls come out.
As the situation developed, I thought that it was absurd and that there was no need to worry about it because it had nothing to do with me.

-Is that so?

Lee Ji-eun, who reads my thoughts.
I wanted to say something again this time, but since I was talking to Siwoo, it was difficult to say something to Jieun Lee.

“You were listening, though.”

“Of course. This is the story of my boyfriend Siu.”

Siwoo smiled as I crossed my arms.
He smiled and looked at me.

“Anyway, I met Letia, one of the magical girls, on my way home from school yesterday.”

“Really?”

“Huh.”

A magical girl who has become like an idol in a way.
Because I was often exposed to the media, I felt like a celebrity.

Currently, there are about 4 active idols.
Originally, it was a team of 5 people, but after one suddenly disappeared, I knew that 4 people were working individually.

“How was it?”

“The real thing was prettier than the real TV, for sure… “

While talking, Siwoo seemed to sense that something was wrong.
He smiled awkwardly and began to evade his words.

“Of course, the author is the prettiest in the world. Haha… “

“You know how awkward that is?”

“… Mi… Sorry.”

“Ugh.”

Although they started dating, it seems that there is no perfect Siwoo.
It seemed like it couldn’t be helped since Siwoo’s default value was configured to like women.

“Oh… Do not misunderstand. Me… I was just happy to see a magical girl like a celebrity.”

Siwoo insists on his innocence.
I sighed at his figure and nodded his head.

– It’s going to be pretty tough this time too.

“I think so too.”

“I… Really?”

Siwoo is happy knowing that he said it to himself.
It was too late to say no, so he sighed roughly and nodded his head.

The school that arrived.
I put my thoughts on magical girls, monsters, and monsters behind and immediately pondered over how to maintain my relationship with Siu as it is now.

* * *

“Really?”
“I saw you yesterday too.”

“Certainly, Letia is the best magical girl.”
“What are you talking about? Of course, Tippy is the best.”

Male students fighting like that.
Looking at those male students, I couldn’t help but sigh.

Male students who are old enough to like magical girls.
However, since this episode was a bit special, the existence of magical girls appeared,
Those beings were gaining popularity for feeling like guardians and idols of this world.

This part was already shared with Siwoo in the morning while going to school.
However, it was embarrassing to see a magical girl being used as a main storyline throughout the class.

A situation that can’t be revealed.
I had no choice but to roll my eyeballs to adapt to this episode as much as possible.

-Did you come up with this concept?

“I don’t even remember what I was thinking about.”

– No wonder.

A very old memory.
I couldn’t help it because I was tied to this world for quite a long time, from Taeyang Geum in the first episode, Deokbae Kim in the second episode, Sangsu Kim in the third episode, and otaku in the fourth episode.

No matter how much I thought about why I put in the magical girl part, I couldn’t help but remember.
However, after talking with Lee Ji-eun, I felt like I could remember why I suddenly added this magical girl part.

“I think someone asked for Lee Ji-eun’s commission… “

-Really?

“It was difficult for me to make the entire game alone.”

There are episodes where I was directly involved, but there are also situations where I am not.
That meant that the magical girl episode was one of them.

Most of the commission cost was covered by sponsorship.
As a result, each of them had a part they wanted, and the artist who drew Lee Ji-eun was one of those people.

Originally, an illustrator who made quite a name in Yangji.
The conditions for such an artist were quite simple, but he had set the condition that he would make even the smallest details of Lee Ji-eun if he put in a magical girl session.

I was so busy at the time that I said that if there was anything I wanted about this part, I would put it all in.
Actually, I had no idea, so I was just going to make a sketch, but with the help of an illustrator who brought extensive information about magical girls, this episode was able to be created.

The behind-the-scenes story that I remember like biting a tail after remembering it.
Thinking of this, I sat at my desk and bruised until class time.

“Ji-eun?”

A neat image with blue hair.
Perhaps because of her graceful demeanor, a female student who felt like a child from her adoptive family started talking to me.

“Ah, Eunyoung.”

Ji-eun’s friend position in each episode.
Instead of Jo Mi-yu, who had a cheerful image in the last episode, Cho Eun-young, who has a calm image, took on this role in this episode.

It’s not a childhood friend position, it’s just a close acquaintance.
Her original personality was passive, but when Lee Ji-eun scolded her female students who bullied her, they became friends with her unknowingly.

-There is a point in your own way.

Lee Ji-eun always helps with a word.
I tried to ignore her and looked at her Jo Eun-yeong.

“Is the weather really nice today?”

Jo Eun-young talks about the weather with a bright smile.
It was a little burdensome because there was no child with this concept among the female students who had been in the position of friends until now.

Again, Lee Ji-eun’s default is an athletic girl.
So, since she is the ace of the swimming club, it was hard to match her atmosphere like a girl from a foster family.

“Uh… It’s nice weather.”

“It would be nice to have a tea party drinking black tea on a day like this… “

“Haha… Under.”

– You really are a foster family member.

A word from Lee Ji-eun that cannot be denied.
I expressed my affirmation inwardly and looked at Cho Eun-young.

Cho Eun-young has a neat, transparent glass-like feeling.
I was able to find something a little peculiar about her, who has an image that she dares not touch.

Slight scratches.
I couldn’t help but wonder when I saw a small scratch through her sleeve, as if something had scratched her.

At that time, Jo Eun-young met my eyes.
She blushed and covered her wound with her hand, as if embarrassed.

“Lol… Because the cat scratched the house.”

“Do you have a cat?”

“Yes, it’s a cat named Lili, but she’s really cute. Would you like to see it?”

Eun-young naturally tries to show a picture of a cat.
I couldn’t deny it and naturally had no choice but to look at the cat picture.

“How are you really cute?”

“It’s really cute.”

Persian cat with white fur and blue eyes.
However, it was a mysterious cat that felt a little unique.

There… A cat that is a bit too small to be seen as having scratched Eun-young.
So, the wound I saw on her felt a little bigger.

Of course, I may be mistaken, but it is not necessary to find out the deep part of her.
I laughed and continued the story about the cat.

* * *

“I was talking hard with Eun-young earlier. What did you talk about?”

School road.
It was Park Si-woo who immediately asked if he was concerned about what Eun-yeong and I talked about before class.

“Just a simple story.”

“Hey, stop talking about it.”

“I was just talking about her cat.”

“Is that all?”

“Huh. But what did you expect?”

“I was just wondering what my girlfriend is interested in these days, so I asked.”

-Why is he so smirking again?

Lee Ji-eun, who fits well today.
I expressed an affirmation inwardly and looked at Siwoo.

“Study more when you have time to do that.”

“I am better at studying than you are.”

An undeniable fact.
However, seeing Siwoo continuing to play around like this made me laugh out loud.

“Why? Is it true?”

“I just laughed because it was funny.”

While talking like that, the sky suddenly darkens.
It was not the kind of sky that usually gets dark before it rains, but it was a purple sky that gave off a strange feeling.

Siwoo feels the atmosphere is strange.
He took my hand and started running.

“Why… Why are you running all of a sudden?”

“Run for now.”

“You have to tell me why.”

Siwoo ignores my words and runs while holding my hand.
He led me into a seemingly safe building.

“Huh… Heo-eok… “
“Ha… Ha… “

Breathing rapid due to sudden running.
I looked at Siwoo, who was caught and made to run without knowing why, and looked at him with a resentful gaze.

“Ha… Ha… This… Now tell me Why did you suddenly run?”

“Ha… Ha… Did I tell you that I met Letia yesterday?”

“Suddenly a magical girl?”

“The reason I saw Letia yesterday was because the darkness fell like this and the monster suddenly appeared… Ha… “

“A monster?”

“Those monsters with just tentacles on TV.”

Monsters who can be said to be the opponents of magical girls.
Since the monsters appeared in the world, they knew that magical girls appeared to eliminate them.

Monsters destroy the world and magical girls protect people.
However, since it is unknown where the monsters appear, the magical girl has no choice but to appear slightly later.

Ordinary citizens who are naturally harmed by this.
Of course, the monster didn’t appear in front of us, but I could fully imagine what would happen if Siwoo and I, ordinary people, were discovered by the monster.

That’s why I jumped with me and entered a building that seemed safe.
While I was catching my breath with Siwoo, I started to hear a bleak voice from somewhere.

“… Human… It smells human… “

A chilling voice that sent chills down the spine.
Seeing that voice made me and Siu immediately shut up.
