Training Game Has Become a Reality 26

Chapter 26 – Episode 26

I woke up early in the morning.

Today is a holiday. My eyes opened spontaneously before 5 o’clock.

‘Vitamin…’

The first thing I did after waking up was take vitamins.

The vitamin effect was better than I expected. The difference between the days I ate and the days I didn’t was clear.

‘After taking vitamins, the itching symptoms completely disappeared.’

It wasn’t just the itching that went away. Freed from allergic rhinitis, colds, body aches, and overwork.

This is because the immunity has improved.

‘It’s so effective. It’s a waste to just eat it. Should I give it as a gift to my friends?’

I shook my head.

‘No. Realistically, it’s impossible. Maybe later, but it’s impossible right now. ‘My nose is three feet long.’

There was no room.

I didn’t have enough points to buy a good-looking potion.

Besides that, there were more than one item that needed to be purchased.

Next.

I bought a lucky cookie. Open the wrapping paper. I ate it, munching on it.

Sweet. Delicious. I felt better. I really wanted Ayoung to like it.

‘What is today’s luck score?’

There was anticipation in my eyes.

[You have consumed a lucky cookie.]

[Luck increases randomly.]

[Luck increases by +2.6 for 6 hours.]

“Ah…”

The expectations were horribly shattered.

“Fuck, my point…”

I felt like tears of blood were flowing.

“These days, nothing but bangs come out.”

In fact, I often consumed lucky cookies.

But the results were disastrous. There was no high luck.

[Luck increases by +0.3 for 12 hours.]

[Luck increases by +3.8 for 22 hours.]

[Luck increases by +0.09% for 10 hours.]

There were three things I learned about Lucky Cookies.

One is that there are severe ups and downs.

It was all or nothing.

The two are that high luck doesn’t come out often.

The last three are that repeated intake is impossible.

[Lucky Cookie’s duplicate buff is not possible.]

Jinseong purchased two small chance random boxes at the store.

‘Even though Lucky Cookie failed, the gacha is awesome!’

I’m into the fun of gacha these days.

‘Great luck! Awesome! Please come out with a good item!’

I opened the small chance random box.

[Congratulations.]

[Obtain a necklace of charm.]

[Obtain the advice of the forgotten book.]

The item was appraised.

[Necklace of Charm]

[Content: When worn, it slightly increases the user’s attractiveness. However, this is a women-only item.]

[Advice from a forgotten book]

[Content: You can only ask one question to the Forgotten Book. The Forgotten Book will give you the appropriate answer.]

Did you pick a good item?

Did I pick a bad item?

‘Damn, that sucks.’

Jinseong thought he had drawn a loser.

It was not the item I was hoping for.

I wanted items such as a 100-point reinforcement ticket, a perfume that increases favorability, or a misfortune diary.

‘Whoa, damn it, I lost 6 points.’

It was just sad and deplorable.

‘The necklace of charm…’

It was a women-only item.

‘I guess I can give it to Ayoung as a gift.’

I decided to go to the zoo with Choi Ayoung today.

I think it would be a good idea to meet her and give her necklace as a gift.

‘The advice of the forgotten book…’

This is an item that provides appropriate advice to questions.

‘I have to try it.’

I put a lot of thought into it before using it.

What questions should I ask?

What are you curious about?

‘Answer the question…’

I thought about it for about 3 minutes.

It was a dull black book. It was the size of a Bible. I opened the book. It was a blank piece of paper with nothing written on it.

Letters appeared in the center of the blank paper.

[What are you curious about?]

[Ask anything.]

Jinseong fell into thought again.

I soon asked a question.

“What should I do?”

It was an ambiguous question.

“I’m not sure what I should do. “I know how to live hard, but I don’t know how to achieve social success or the standards for happiness.”

Jinseong’s honest question.

The forgotten book answered.

[Go to Myungho Lee and ask him.]

[You will be able to solve your question.]

It was a somewhat strange answer.

‘Go see Myungho Lee?’

Who was Lee Myung-ho?

‘Lee Myung-ho? Who is it? ‘Who was it?’

It’s a sight to behold.

I thought I would remember it, but I couldn’t.

‘Uh? Ah?! I remembered! Brother Noan!’

I gave up my seat on the bus to a man with leg problems.

By chance, I met a man again at the gym and cried out loud.

The man’s name was Lee Myung-ho.

‘Go find that person?’

That person will give you the answer?

‘I need to visit you soon.’

The forgotten book that had served its purpose has disappeared.

∴∴∴

I decided to meet Ayoung Choi at 7:30 am. There are about 30 minutes left until the appointment time.

KakaoTalk has arrived.

[Ayoung Choi: Jinseong oppa, there are no bad people out there today, right?]

[Ayoung Choi: I feel a little scared every time I go out these days]

After the incident, Choi A-young often sent KakaoTalk messages saying she was scared.

Since she was almost killed by the killer, she had no choice but to suffer the aftereffects.

[Me: Ahyoung, don’t worry. There are no bad people.]

[Me: It will never happen, but if, just in case, a bad guy shows up, I will protect you.]

[Me: I will protect you a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, so don’t be afraid.]

[Ayoung Choi: I feel strong]

[Ayoung Choi: I’m relieved]

[Choi Ayoung: Oppa is quite cool]

[Ayoung Choi: Thank you♡]

[Me: In front of your house.]

[Me: I came to pick you up.]

[Ayoung Choi: Huh? Really?]

[Ayoung Choi: Is it in front of my house?]

[Ayoung Choi: I’m worried about Ayoung]

[Ayoung Choi: Are you here to pick me up?]

[Me: Yes, get ready and come out slowly.]

[Ayoung Choi: I’m so touched]

[Ayoung Choi: Honestly, I was excited]

[Ayoung Choi: ♡]

[Ayoung Choi: I’ll leave quickly]

Choi Ayoung did not often use heart emoticons.

These days, the frequency of using heart emoticons has increased.

‘After the murderer incident, expressions of affection increased dramatically.’

The entrance door was opened. Choi Ayoung walked outside.

A light gray dress that reached down to her knees. A khaki denim jacket reminiscent of a banana. Charmander hairpin.

“How am I?”

Choi Ayoung slightly lifted the knees of her dress and took a spin.

“I wanted to wear pajamas, but her brother coaxed me into wearing them in a girlfriend’s look, so I tried wearing them in a particularly lovely girlfriend’s look.”

“Pretty. It’s gorgeous. “I wonder how someone can be this pretty.”

“Hairpin silver? Today’s fashion point is the Charmander hairpin? “Isn’t it very cute and pretty?”

“It suits you well.”

It was Jinseong who was half ecstatic.

Choi A-young’s beauty + fashion + S-grade charm = a fraud itself.

I wondered what man in the world wouldn’t fall in love with Choi A-young.

“Hehe, that’s very good.”

Choi A-young was very satisfied with her Jin-seong’s reaction. It was a good thing she wore the girlfriend look, she thought, and smiled with satisfaction.

[Likeability: 90]

Her favorability rating, which was 89, increased to 90.

Likeability 90.

If a likability rating of 80 was ‘reasonably trustworthy’.

From 90 onwards, ‘deeply trustworthy. Deeply trustworthy. I had a deep liking for it.

After the murderer incident, Choi A-young came to deeply trust her true nature.

‘Don’t worry. As I heard her say ‘I will protect you’ dozens of times, my trust in her naturally deepened.

[Inner thoughts: Jinseong oppa is like my very own long-legged uncle.]

[Inner thoughts: Thanks to my brother, I won the instant lottery… Thanks to that, her mother was able to safely undergo her surgery… He showed up and helped me when I was in danger.]

[Inner thoughts: He said he would always protect me… I can see that you like me… They always tell me I’m pretty… Even now, when they look at me, they are mesmerized by how pretty I am…]

[Inner thoughts: It’s fun to keep in touch with my brother… When I meet my brother, I feel at ease… When I play, I have so much fun that the day goes by quickly…]

[Inner thoughts: Thank you, brother.]

[My inner thoughts: My brother is grateful to me.]

Choi Ayoung’s eyes became softer.

[Likeability: 91]

“Shall we go?”

“Neng!”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

“Me too.”

Jinseong’s first time was at the zoo. It’s also my first time going out with a woman.

‘I’m excited.’

I was excited.

‘Shall I ask you to hold hands?’

I wanted to join hands with Choi Ayoung.

‘No. Let’s hold on for now. Be patient.’

I gave up completely.

It was a situation where only the likeability was high, and no affection was even created.

Choi A-young perceives herself only as a good older brother, not as a romantic partner.

If she tried to engage in skinship, Choi Ah-young might be displeased.

‘Let’s just wait until affection develops.’

∴∴∴

Arrived at the zoo.

She was able to see beautiful natural scenery and cute animals.

“Wow, so, so cute!”

Choi Ayoung pointed at the meerkat and said it was so cute that she didn’t know what to do.

“The flowers here look so pretty.”

“I see.”

“Oppa, let’s take a picture together.”

“Is that so?”

She took a picture in front of a flower field. Fingers holding close to each other v.

Click.

“Would you like me to take a picture?”

“Neng!”

Click.

“Brother, please stand too. “I’ll take a picture.”

“I understand.”

Click.

“Hey, sister, can you take a picture of us?”

“Okay.”

“Thank you.”

Click.

Choi Ayoung smiled the whole time. She didn’t know that her smile would bloom brightly and not wither.

I loved the beautiful nature, and I also loved the cute animals.

It was fun to take pictures.

[Inner mind: I’m hungry.]

“Are you hungry? Should I eat something?”

“Brother? Tell me honestly? Do you have the superpower of reading minds?”

“No, I think I’m hungry. “You said you didn’t even eat breakfast today, right?”

I stopped by the store.

I bought a light snack.

“Do you want to eat anything for dinner?”

“Hmm, meat? “I want to eat meat.”

[Inner mind: Galbi. Sweet ribs.]

I read your inner thoughts.

“Okay? How about ribs? Call?”

“Wow, I just thought I wanted to eat a lot of ribs…”

“Uh? You also? Me too. “I suddenly had a craving for sweet ribs.”

“It worked again.”

“Yes.”

The dinner menu has been decided.

“I think we get along really well.”

“Recognition.”

I was pricked by my conscience.

It doesn’t work well. It didn’t fit well either. It was simply reading their inner thoughts and adjusting to them.

I ate a snack and walked.

“Brother… ?”

Choi Ayoung had no choice but to stop.

“Are you going to be offended?”

Choi Ayoung looked at Jinseong’s face and her hands alternately.

His pupils were shaking slightly with anxiety. His hand holding her hand is full of tension.

“Not one. It’s not unpleasant.”

Choi Ayoung shook her head.

“… It’s warm.”

There was a shyness in the voice.

She lowered her head.
She avoided eye contact.

I walked slowly for a while without saying a word.
