━ yours ,, the s-class that i raised

requested by: – pairing(s): han yoohyun x twin! male reader word count: 1009 warnings: canon spoilers (?), cursing, twincest, incest, bro con, casual plans of murder are casual, hand job, shower sex (implied) a/n: if you read the manhwa, you know that yoohyun has a massive brother con shit with yoojin and yoojin also shows some moments of it too but not as bad as yoohyun who is yandere af

but yeah, sue me for being a disgusting degenerate ┐⁠(⁠´⁠ー⁠｀⁠)⁠┌

Han Yoohyun knew something wasn't right as he looked in the direction of his and your room was, where his older twin, you, had disappeared after you had arrived not too long ago. Yoohyun couldn't help but get a bit concerned about you as you had completely shut yourself off. Your usually cheerful attitude had been all but gone. His twin brother had hardly even opened a mouth since you arrived and before slipping into the shared bedroom.

Yoohyun knew something must have happened when you had gone out earlier. You came back from an interview that must have taken a toll on you as you barely even talked to Yoohyun before you had dragged yourself to the bedroom while murmuring about going to take a bath to relax.

The interviews you go to weren't any less intense as you took up the public's interest so Yoohyun can do his own thing. You were the "marketable" twin so to say. The stress must have accumulated, and he wasn't surprised that you were taking a bath to relax. He would be lying if he wasn't curious about what you had gone through during the interview though as he was sure it was stressful.

So, getting up from the couch, Yoohyun went towards the shared bedroom and opened the door to see if he can able to find out what had gotten his older twin in this mood. Yoohyun could hear the sound of the running water over the sound of his own breathing, his worry grew as it dawned on him that he may need to go check on you more.

Opening the door to the bathroom connected to the bedroom, Yoohyun looked at you. You were obviously naked as the water from the shower fell down to your body and Yoohyun could see you clearly through the clear glass that separated the wet area from the rest of the bathroom. Yoohyun didn't have time to be impressed like he always was on seeing your form like this as he was more concerned about the fact that you looked blankly at the tiled bathroom wall, standing there without any emotion on your face. It was unlike you...

Yoohyun let out a sigh as he began stripping until he was bare and slipped into the showers with his twin. "Move," Yoohyun softly said as he placed himself behind you and immediately leaned in, feeling you stiffen from both your bodies close. You then relaxed when you realised it was just Yoohyun. The both of you stayed like that for a while as Yoohyun placed his head on your shoulder as the warm waters coming from the shower pelted the both of you.

"What's wrong?" Yoohyun softly asked after a while as he closed his eyes. Humming when he heard you let out a grunt and answered.

"Parasites getting annoying again," you huffed as you remembered how annoying the press was from the interview you had gone to. "Those fuckers had the audacity to mention hyung and bad mouth him... again..."

That made Yoohyun snap his eyes open as he glared at the tiled wall. When it comes to Han Yoojin, your dearest older brother, the two of you would always feel more emotion than anything else. Even after keeping themselves away from Yoojin for years, both twins will forever be wrapped around Yoojin's fingers. And you two didn't like it when anyone ever disrespects or hurts your older brother. "Should we just kill them?" You let out another grunt at Yoohyun's words. You were tempted to agree with your baby twin, but you had to stop this as you knew it would be a mess if you let Yoohyun do whatever he wanted.

"Tempting... but no. It'll be annoying to deal with if word gets out about the two leaders of the Haeyeon Guild murdered civilians. You know we're not allowed to endanger those insects in any form."

Yoohyun let out a displeased hum as he pressed his body closer to you. "I hate it when you're right," Yoohyun murmured as he placed a kiss on your neck to distract himself from his anger on not being able to do anything. Wrapping his arms to hug his older twin, Yoohyun casually placed one of his hands on your toned stomach as he then slowly guided it down until he grabbed your soft cock. "Is that why you're pissed earlier?"

"Yeah..." A soft groan left your lips at the feeling of Yoohyun's hand on your cock, your baby twin slowly jerking you until your cock becomes hard. Yoohyun softly hummed as he placed another kiss on your neck as he continued to lazily jerk your cock. His other hand cupped one of your pecks and squeezed it. Letting a pleased hum at hearing your pleasured noises. "Trying to distract me?"

"No... claiming what's mine," Yoohyun said as he bit on your skin harshly, planning on leaving a mark that hopefully he could admire for a while before you drink a potion to erase it. "I hate it when you people think you're dating someone."

You chuckled softly as you knew what Yoohyun meant. Seems like your dearest baby brother found out about the rumours of you apparently "dating" another hunter. It was all a lie really as the press and media always love to blow things out of proportion and love to make drama on things... but you knew Yoohyun was always the territorial kind... not like you weren't as well.

You grabbed Yoohyun's hand and made your twin stop touching you so you could turn around and face Yoohyun. A smile was on your lips as you cupped Yoohyun's cheeks as you looked at Yoohyun in the eye.

"You know it's all lies," you said as you placed your lips against Yoohyun's, softly kissing your twin as you pressed your body closer to his. Making Yoohyun be pushed back towards the wall as you softly grind your hard cock on Yoohyun's thick, muscled thighs. "I only belong to you and hyung."

UGH reading the S-classes I raised and this actually

Makes me SO emotional—

The fact that yj’s little brother feels helpless in trying to help yj bc he KNOWS that yj still sees himself as his parent, who has to protect him, who’ll never share his burdens with him

And yj is such a kind person and a caretaker at heart that he keeps adding unloved people to his family that he swears to take care of, bc he’s the one person who isn’t scared of them and sees them as the kids they are

EXCEPT ☝️ that fucking bitch sung hyunjae

Has never needed yj’s protection

Is the only person that yj really doesn’t understand/trust

Is the only person that can instantly pick up on whatever scheme yj is cooking up

Is the only person sensitive enough to realize that yj turned back time and thus, becomes the only one yj can confide in about his grief for his dead little brother in a broken timeline:

LIKE???? SORRY THIS IS THE MOST ROMANTIC THING IVE EVER SEEN

The slight bitterness sung hyunjae has that he never had someone to care about him and grieve him the way yj did for his little brother… the sinking in of Just How Much yj loves yoohyun and Just How Far he would go for yoohyun

The realization that yj doesn’t realize yoohyun and the rest of his found family would do the same for him, and moreover, yj WOULDNT L E T them ever do the same for him, bc he should’ve died in that timeline, this is stolen time he got through the death of his little brother, why would he ever deserve to be protected

So it’s in this moment sung hyunjae realizes, oh. I need to protect him. I’m the only one who can, because I’m the only one he doesn’t need to protect.

He is the only one who has ever seen hyunjae for who he was, and hyunjae will pay that back for the rest of his life. No. He needs to.

FILL SEVEN SEAS SURVEY AND REQUEST S-CLASSES THAT I RAISED NOVEL LICENSE

GOOGLE FORM LINK PLEASE TAKE A SECOND TO FILL IT, LET'S AT LEAST MAKE IT VISIBLE !!

ALSO REQUEST IN THE TWITTER POST IF POSSIBLE

[ghostflowerdreams]

Lately, I’ve been diving into a lot of web novels and manhwa, mostly manhwa, with one manhua in the mix.

While they’re still fresh in my mind, I wanted to share the ones I really enjoyed and would happily recommend. For now, it’s just a list with no particular order, but I might write separate posts later to explain why I liked each one. Hopefully, I’ll find the time to write those posts and not forget or get distracted by something else.

Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint

It is also known as Omniscient Reader (Korean: 전지적 독자 시점; RR: Jeonjijeok Dokja Sijeom) is a South Korean manhwa adapted from the web novel written by Sing Shong (싱숑), a pseudonym used by the married couple who co-authored the original novel. The manhwa adaptation is illustrated by Sleepy-C (슬리피-C) of Redice Studio.

As a struggling office worker, Kim Dokja leads an unremarkable life. His only solace lies in reading an obscure web novel, Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse, which he has loyally followed as its sole reader for 13 years. The story follows Yoo Joonghyuk, a man doomed to endlessly regress through apocalyptic scenarios for the amusement of the Constellations—powerful beings that range from mythic heroes and great sages to ancient gods—and their dokkaebi intermediaries. When the novel finally ends, so does the world as Dokja knows it. Reality suddenly mirrors fiction as monstrous creatures descend, ordinary people gain powers, and they're forced into deadly “scenarios” lifted straight from the novel. But unlike anyone else, Dokja knows what’s coming next. With foreknowledge of the plot’s twists and turns, he becomes the only person capable of changing the story’s outcome. Now Dokja must go from passive reader to active player, rewriting fate, confronting impossible odds, and perhaps becoming the protagonist of a story that was never meant to be his.

SSS-Class Revival Hunter

It is also known as SSS-Class Suicide Hunter (Korean: SSS급 자살헌터; RR: SSS-geup Jugeoya Saneun Hunter) is a South Korean manhwa adapted from the web novel written by Shin Noah (신노아), with illustrations by Bill K.

Some people are born lucky—blessed with fame, power, and fortune as if the Tower itself had chosen them. Kim Gong-Ja, a powerless F-Class hunter with no skills to his name, is not one of them. While others rise as heroes within the mysterious, monster-filled Tower, he is left behind, watching from the shadows and envying the star hunter known as the Flame Emperor. Everything changes when Gong-Ja is granted a rare S-Class ability: the power to copy another person’s skill. The catch? He can only do it after they kill him. Thrown headfirst into a deadly encounter with the Flame Emperor himself, Gong-Ja dies, only to awaken again with a second new skill and the shocking truth about the man he once idolized. With the power to rewind time by 24 hours, he hatches a bold plan: travel 11 years into the past and stop the Flame Emperor before he rises to power.

The S-Ranks That I Raised

It is also known as My S-Class Hunters (Korean: 내가 키운 S급들; RR: Naega Kiun S-Geupdeul), is a South Korean manhwa adapted by seri from the original web novel written by Geunseo, with illustrations by biwan.

After the tragic death of their parents, Han Yoojin devoted his life to raising his younger brother, Han Yoohyun. But in a world resembling modern-day Korea, the sudden appearance of dungeons and monstrous invaders forces humanity to adapt—becoming Awakened Hunters to survive. When a dungeon suddenly appears near Yoohyun’s route to school, he awakens as an extraordinary S-rank Hunter. From that point on, the brothers are driven down separate paths. Yoohyun rises to power, eventually founding one of Korea’s most powerful guilds, Haeyeon, while Yoojin is left behind. Eight years later, Yoojin finally Awakens, but to his dismay, he is classified as an unremarkable F-rank Hunter. During what should have been a routine D-rank dungeon raid, a freak appearance of a Tier 1 monster wipes out the entire party and leaving Yoojin the sole survivor. Trapped inside, unable to escape until the monster is defeated or he's dead, Yoojin watches helplessly as Yoohyun arrives to save him—only to die in his arms. Devastated, Yoojin manages to defeat the monster and is offered a single wish. Without hesitation, he chooses the one thing he wants most: to return to a time before his brother’s death. When he awakens in the past with all his memories intact, he is determined to reconcile with Yoohyun and live a quiet, peaceful life. But fate has other plans. His second Awakening grants him mysterious new abilities, and though he remains an F-rank on paper, Yoojin quickly finds himself surrounded by powerful allies and entangled in a dangerous plot that threatens the world itself.

Trash of the Count’s Family

It is also known as Lout of Count's Family (Korean: 백작가의 망나니가 되었다; RR: Baekjakga-ui Mangnani-ga Doeeotda), is a South Korean manhwa adapted from the web novel written by Yoo Ryeo Han (유려한), with illustrations by PAN4.

After falling asleep while reading the fantasy novel Birth of a Hero, Kim Rok Soo wakes up inside the story—as Cale Henituse, a minor noble infamous for one thing: getting brutally beaten by the protagonist, Choi Han. In the novel, Choi Han loses everything, plunges into despair, and begins his heroic journey by delivering a well-deserved thrashing to Cale, a drunken, good-for-nothing noble. But Rok Soo has no intention of following that script. Armed with knowledge of the novel’s events and the resources of his new identity, he vows to change his fate, avoid conflict, and live a quiet, carefree life surrounded by wealth and comfort. Unfortunately, staying out of the spotlight is easier said than done. With ancient powers, dark forces stirring, and his every step unintentionally altering the plot, Cale may find himself in the middle of a much bigger adventure than he bargained for—all while desperately trying to live a peaceful, luxurious life.

The Extra's Academy Survive Guide

It is also known as How to Survive at the Academy (Korean: 아카데미에서 살아남기; RR: Akademieseo Saranamgi), is a South Korean manhwa adapted by GREEN KYRIN from the original web novel written by Corita.

Ed Rothstaylor is a third-rate villain in a fantasy game, disowned by his family, kicked out of the dorms for his misdeeds, and destined to fade into obscurity. But one day, the main character wakes up in Ed’s body and quickly realizes that if he wants a peaceful, stable future, he’ll need to earn a scholarship and make it to graduation. Now living in the woods and trying to stay far away from the main cast, he plans to keep a low profile. Unfortunately, four of the game’s female leads seem determined to get involved with him and to make things worse, his actions are starting to shift the timeline and alter the story’s original path. Can Ed keep the plot from derailing entirely while staying out of the spotlight?

The Greatest Estate Developer

It is also known as The Greatest Estate Designer (Korean: 역대급 영지 설계사; RR: Yeokdaegeum Yeongji Seolgyesa) is a South Korean manhwa adapted by Lee Hyunmin from the original web novel written by BK_Moon (문백경), with illustrations by Kim Hyunsoo.

Civil engineering student Kim Suho falls asleep reading a fantasy novel—only to wake up as Lloyd Frontera, the good-for-nothing noble whose family is drowning in debt. Known for his laziness, drinking, and thuggish behavior, Lloyd is destined for ruin while the novel’s true hero, knight-in-training Javier Asrahan, rises to greatness. But Suho isn’t about to accept that fate. Equipped with modern engineering knowledge and magical construction skills, he sets out to repair Lloyd’s tarnished reputation—not through heroics, but by rebuilding the world around him. Introducing innovative infrastructure and urban development to the medieval setting, he drastically improves the quality of life for its people—all while turning a tidy profit.

Surviving the Game as a Barbarian

Surviving the Game as a Barbarian (Korean: 게임 속 바바리안으로 살아남기; RR: Geim Sok Babarianeuro Saranamgi) is a South Korean manhwa adapted by Han Tae-su from the original web novel by Jung Yoon-kang, with illustrations by MIDNIGHT Studio.​

After nine grueling years playing Dungeon and Stone—a brutal RPG no one has ever cleared—Hansoo Lee finally reaches the final boss room. But just as victory seems within reach, he receives a notification that he has completed the tutorial. In the blink of an eye, Hansoo finds himself inhabiting the body of Bjorn Jandel, a real barbarian in the game’s harsh, unforgiving world. Now trapped in a reality where death is permanent and failure means execution, Hansoo must navigate a ruined world where only one city remains, its survival dependent on monthly expeditions into a deadly labyrinth. Barbarians like Bjorn are considered little more than muscle, and players like him who are discovered to be possessing their characters are labeled “evil spirits” and killed on sight. Armed with nine years of in-depth knowledge and a barbarian’s brute strength, Hansoo must fight, adapt, and outwit this merciless world to survive. His only option? Conquer the labyrinth and hope it doesn’t conquer him first.

Pick Me Up

It is also known as Pick Me Up! Infinite Gacha (Korean: 픽 미 업!; RR: Pik Mi Eop!), a South Korean manhwa adapted by nicesun (REDICE Studio) from the web novel by Hermod, with illustrations by WASAK BASAK.

In the brutal world of Pick Me Up, a notoriously difficult mobile gacha game, 1-star heroes are nothing more than disposable tools—fodder to learn boss mechanics before real heroes take the stage. That’s what Han Seojin, a top-tier player ranked 5th globally under the alias "Loki," believed until everything changes. During a raid, a strange bug causes him to lose consciousness, and when he wakes up, he finds himself inside the game... as Han Islat, a level 1, 1-star hero. Trapped in the lowest tier of a game he once dominated, Seojin now faces the ultimate challenge: climb from the bottom of the ranks, rally a team of underdogs, and conquer the dungeon’s 100th floor to return home. But to do that, he’ll have to outwit the newbie player known to the in-game characters as “Master”—the one now controlling him and treating them all as disposable pawns.

The Knight Only Lives Today

It is also known as Eternally Regressing Knight (Korean: 오늘만 사는 기사; RR: Oneulman Saneun Gisa), a South Korean manhwa adapted by Lee Hyun-Min and Ganara from the original web novel written by Soulpung, with illustrations by Ian.

Enkrid was called a genius once, but the praise turned bitter as he grew older and his dream of becoming a knight slipped further from reach. Mocked for his lack of talent and urged to give up, he refused to let go. He trained harder, slept less, and pushed his body beyond its limits. Still, it wasn’t enough. One day, he died—stabbed through the neck in a hopeless fight. Then he woke up. Back at the start of that same day. Now trapped in a mysterious loop, Enkrid finds himself with unlimited chances to train, fight, and fail—and to learn from every mistake. With death no longer the end, how far can a dream take him when time itself becomes his greatest weapon?

The Top Dungeon Farmer

It is also known as Solo Farming in the Tower (Korean: 나 혼자 탑에서 농사; RR: Na Honja Tapeseo Nongsa), a South Korean manhwa adapted by Lim Hyeong from the original web novel written by sdcknight, with illustrations by Lee Ha Kyung.

When a mysterious black tower appeared in Seoul, people called it a dungeon—a perilous place filled with monsters, varied terrain, and unimaginable treasures. For many, it was a battleground. For Sejun, an ordinary underdog, it was supposed to be his big break. So when a black portal from the Tower appeared before him, he didn’t hesitate. He jumped in. He expected to land on the first floor, just like the stories he had heard from the first Awakened, where they were given a choice between the warrior or mage class. Instead, he found himself stranded on an uncharted floor of the Tower. His grand ambitions quickly shifted to a far simpler goal: staying alive. With only a few items from a grocery run and his bare hands, he turned to the most unlikely solution in a deadly dungeon: farming—specifically, growing cherry tomatoes and green onions. What began as a desperate attempt to live another day soon turned into a thriving livelihood. With optimism, quick thinking, and the help of a few loyal, furry companions, Sejun transformed his dangerous, isolated corner of the dungeon into a surprisingly profitable oasis.

The Sichuan Tang Clan’s Entomologist

It is also known as Entomologist in Sichuan Tang Clan, Fabre in Sichuan’s Tang Family and The Poison Master of Sacheondang Clan (Chinese: 파브르 in 사천당가; RR: Pabeureu in Sacheondangga), a Chinese manhua adapted from the original web novel written by Erhuhu, with illustrations by Kraken.

Fabre, a popular streamer with millions of followers, is known for his specializing in poisonous insects and daring encounters with venomous creatures. During a live stream in Africa, he’s bitten by a black mamba, dies, and to his shock awakens in Murim—a mystical world steeped in martial arts, ancient clans, and fantastical beasts. There, he settles into a quiet life in an abandoned Daoist temple nestled in the mountains, happily cultivating a variety of poisonous species. But his peace is interrupted when members of the Tang Clan—a famed martial arts sect known for their mastery of poison and stealth weapons—arrive seeking shelter from the rain. When Fabre helps them track down the elusive Blue-spotted Centipede using his modern expertise, they're intrigued by his potential and extend an invitation for him to join their family.

Dungeon Reset

Dungeon Reset (Korean: 던전 리셋; RR: Deonjeon Riset), a South Korean manhwa adapted by Ant Studio, based on the original web novel written by Daul.

Jeong Dawoon’s ordinary life is upended when he and 100 other people are suddenly transported into another world. Each player is granted a super-powered Skill and a starting weapon, but Dawoon is given only a nearly useless 'Purification' Skill and a tiny knife. Forced to play a brutal game orchestrated by a cruel, rabbit-shaped Guide, they must battle monsters, navigate dangerous traps, and survive in a hostile world of magic and malevolent forces. Despite his weak starting point, Dawoon survives Level 1 by joining forces with a group led by the charismatic Ryu Seung-Woo. However, just before reaching the boss, he falls into a trap and survives only thanks to a glitchy reset, which grants him strange but surprisingly useful new abilities. With a bloodthirsty assistant and a surprisingly adorable squirrel by his side, he must get creative to clear each dungeon area and find a way back home.

SCTIR Translation - Chapter 464: I'm a Fan! (4)

[NOVEL SPOILERS] Story context: Han Gyeol is the name of the pink fairy dragon previously called 'Changeling' that Han Yoojin, uh, gave birth to. Yoojin named him in an earlier chapter after getting input from the other dad slash magical essence donor(?).

"Also, you barely know her. I’m not against you dating outright." "Ajussi, that’s one hundred percent a lie,” Yerim cut in.

Chapter translation under the cut.

---

“I’m telling you, I’ll get rejected,” I said. I was organizing the details of the monsters I had cared for on my laptop.

Han Gyeol, who was sitting beside the laptop and glaring at Sung Hyunje, grumbled, ‘Why would Dad get rejected?’ Then he said more loudly:

— If Dad likes someone, then I’ll like them too.

“That’s sweet of you, Gyeol-ah. But you know, Dad actually sort of likes Sung Hyunje, too.”

— Except for that one. Except the ones dangerous to Dad.

It seemed like Han Gyeol had developed a particular dislike for Sung Hyunje after I’d been threatened by him a few times. There was that time during the dungeon break, and when he’d tried to mess with me on the cruise.

“So, is this going to be your office, Director Han?” Moon Hyuna asked, looking around the room. We were in one of the empty rooms on the first floor of the rearing facility.

“They told me I needed a director’s office. Up until now, I’ve just been working from home, but now that I have employees, I figured it’s time to do things properly.”

It was about time I had a more regular work schedule. I had been living too erratically. For now, I had just set up a desk, table, and sofa. I didn’t even have a nameplate yet. Come to think of it, I should get a new business card too.

“Anyway, I’m just going to confess and be done with it.”

“How’s that going to work? What if Chloe says okay?”

“Do you really think that’s likely? I mean assuming she has no ulterior motives,” I replied.

Moon Hyuna scratched the back of her head. “You are cute, Hyung-nim, but...” She plopped down onto the sofa and continued, “If you’re asking if Chloe would find you attractive, I’m honestly not sure I can give a positive answer.”

“Of course not. After all, I’m pretty much a stranger to her. It would be hard to claim love at first sight, too. No matter what people say about first impressions, looks matter, and in that department, I’m at a disadvantage.”

As if it weren’t hard enough being on my own, I had to contend with Yoohyun, Sung Hyunje, and even Song Taewon as my companions. Who would even notice my face? Getting rejected was the most likely outcome, assuming there were no ulterior motives involved.

“You’re speaking very rationally. Weren’t you all flustered yesterday? Did your feelings cool off overnight?”

“I still like Chloe-ssi. I’d like to keep liking her, if possible.”

Chloe didn’t know it, but her programs had been a source of comfort to me during some tough times. I wasn’t the only one she’d helped. While those moments had been erased due to my regression, I still remembered them clearly.

“…You’re acting a bit suspicious.” Hyuna-ssi seemed to have caught on that my attitude wasn’t normal.

“In support of Han Yoojin-gun’s first love.” Sung Hyunje approached and perched on the desk, then handed me a USB drive. Gyeol bared his teeth as if he would chomp on Sung Hyunje’s hand at any moment. Calm down, Gyeol-ah.

“It’s not my first love. I already got rejected by my first love a long time ago,” I said.

I plugged the USB into my laptop. It contained detailed information on Chloe Alger. “You got that ready fast.”

I said I would contact him in a few days, but he had brought the information in just one day. The data included not only personal details but also recent activities in detail. After reading through it, I let out a deep sigh. There wasn’t anything particularly suspicious in the data itself. However…

‘One centimeter.’

She was 1 cm taller than she had been before my regression. It was a small difference, but the problem was that Chloe at this point should be at a lower level than the Chloe I knew. Taking that into account, the difference might be closer to 2 cm.

‘...It’s likely that her rank increased, after all.’

Or she might have acquired a skill that affected her body. That was also possible. Ranks can go up. Skills can be gained. After all, I had changed, and so had the people around me. It wasn’t unreasonable to think others could change too.

But change wasn’t that easy. If I didn't have my memories, if my skills remained the same and I had simply regressed—how much would I have changed compared to before the regression? It's never easy to change without external interference.

“Han Yoojin-gun,” Sung Hyunje said, leaning forward. “It seems some information differs from what you remember.”

“…Yes.”

"Why are you two having a conversation only you understand," Moon Hyuna grumbled, annoyed at being left out. 

Explaining it fully would mean bringing up my life before the regression. I rubbed my face as if washing it and pushed my hair back.

“It’s not certain,” I said, feeling a weight in my chest. “But there’s a possibility that Hunter Chloe is connected to Park Hayul or to the person who recently carried out the attack on the Association.”

“…Chloe is?” Moon Hyuna looked surprised.

“Yes. That's why, to confirm, I need to be rejected by her."

Moon Hyuna loosely crossed her arms. Gyeol used his tail to slap away Sung Hyunje’s hand, which had been reaching towards me.

“Don’t be too disappointed. People aren’t always what they seem,” Sung Hyunje consoled me.

“We don’t know for certain yet.”

“Hold on, Hyung-nim. So you pretended to like Chloe?”

“…I’m not pretending. I do like her, not romantically but as a person. I’m genuinely a fan."

“Yeah, you didn’t seem like you were acting. But confessing just to see if there’s something fishy… isn’t that a strange approach?"

"Everyone already thinks I have a crush on Chloe-ssi, so I’m playing along with the situation."

I couldn’t explain about the keyword. If the keyword failed to work, it would mean she was connected to Park Hayul. If it worked but she started making moves to get closer to me or try something else, then she’d likely be linked to the Pious. If neither happened, then maybe I could relax a little. But I’d still need to ask her about her rank.

“I don’t think Chloe-ssi is the kind of person who would date me just for my status. Don’t you agree?"

"From what I know, yeah. Chloe is, how should I put it, a bit like Director Song."

“Like Director Song?”

“I told you that she’s unusual. She’s not as extreme in suppressing herself, but for a high-ranking hunter, she cares a lot about the public good. She also dislikes hunters who abuse their power.”

“…She sounds like a good person.”

“Well, there’s still a lot of discrimination where she’s from, right? Even though it’s lessened over time, you still hear things like, ‘America’s heroes are always white.’"

Though not all, most of the famous and popular hunters in the U.S. were indeed white. There had been discussions about how similarly skilled or even weaker hunters received preferential treatment if they were white.

“Her ethics are fairly strict, so it’s hard to imagine her being involved with the people who kidnapped you and shot at you, Director Han. Still, as Sung Hyunje said, people aren’t always what they seem. Some folks are completely different on the inside.”

"The Breaker Guild Leader got tricked once, too. That’s why—"

“Shut your mouth, Sung Hyunje, before I stitch it closed,” Moon Hyuna growled, her brow furrowing. Hyuna-ssi had also been deceived at some point?

“It could just be my misunderstanding,” I said.

“Well anyway, Hyung-nim, if you’re rejected cleanly, then she probably doesn’t have any ulterior motives. Right?”

“Basically, yes. If she were targeting me, it’d be an opportunity she wouldn’t want to pass up."

Even though we were technically in a ceasefire with the Pious, both sides were allowed to maintain contact. There was no reason for them to refuse an opportunity to get closer to me.

"She might suspect it's a trap, but I think my behavior has been quite natural."

"It was good enough to fool me, so I’d say that’s a safe bet,” Hyuna said.

"I’m telling you, it’s real."

Besides, given how loudly I’d been declaring my supposed feelings and confessing, it’d be hard for anyone to believe this was all staged. And all I’d done was mention the idea of confessing. 

"It seems the rumors have spread quite a bit.”

“Yeah, it’s all over our guild,” Hyuna replied.

“Sooyoung said she wants to catch the bouquet,” Sung Hyunje chimed in.

“Ah, Liette mentioned she might try to make a move before it’s too late, so be careful. Lock your doors at night.”

What nonsense was that? Does that mean Liette wouldn't touch someone who has a partner? I thought she wouldn't care about things like that, so it was a bit surprising.

“…I really feel bad for Chloe-ssi, though. If this turns out to be a misunderstanding, I’ll need to apologize properly."

"You said your behavior wasn't fake, right? Besides, you’re F-rank and younger than her, so it’s not a big deal. If Chloe were a low-rank hunter or your genders were reversed, I’d tell you to keep quiet, but this is just a harmless incident.”

Moon Hyuna waved her hand dismissively, assuring me that this situation would blow over as a minor incident. She even suggested Chloe might find it amusing.

“Please keep this a secret from others. From Yoohyun and Yerim, of course, but also from Director Song,” I requested.

If Yoohyun and Yerim found out, they’d give away the ruse immediately. And Director Song wasn’t great at acting either.

“Don’t worry. So, which hotel? Should I call in an orchestra?” Moon Hyuna was still excited, insisting that a confession was still a confession, after all.

“Fine, fine. Chloe-ssi probably knows what you’re like, Hyuna-ssi, so do as you please. I’ll just go along with the two of you and let you push me into confessing."

There was something else I hesitated to mention but felt I should, just in case.

“It seems Chloe-ssi’s stats are higher than what’s publicly known. She might actually be S-rank, not A-rank.”

“What?” Moon Hyuna’s eyes widened in surprise. It seemed even Sung Hyunje hadn’t anticipated that.

"The current Chloe Alger is about 2cm taller than the A-rank Chloe Alger."

"So that's why you were sure after seeing the data,” Sung Hyunje remarked.

“What are you two talking about?”

“The Chloe Alger I knew was 1 cm shorter, even five years from now.”

“…Five years from now?”

“I’m actually from five years in the future.”

“What Han Yoojin-gun says is true,” Sung Hyunje backed me up.

Moon Hyuna leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand, staring at us. There was a moment of silence.

“…Well, fine. I guess a lot of strange things have happened since the dungeons appeared, so why not. We’ve been to other worlds, so time travel doesn’t seem too far-fetched. The bottom line is that you know what’ll happen over the next five years?”

“It’s changed a lot. Originally, I couldn't raise monsters. There was no rearing facility. S-rank mounts didn’t exist even five years later.”

"Things are much better then! That's all that matters." Moon Hyuna sat up and stretched her back, before sinking deep into the sofa. “Got any advice for me?”

“Not really. Just be cautious with the media, I guess? You can imagine why I would have known about that incident,” I said.

“Got it.”

She didn’t pry for more details. Just like in Achates, Hyuna-ssi lived in the present. She focused on the here and now, without lingering on a future that had disappeared. Even after the Breaker Guild collapsed prior to my regression, she would have continued on her own path. And that would be the same in this present.

“So, Chloe changed a lot physically from A-rank to S-rank, which is suspicious. Can those guys turn A-ranks into S-ranks? What about making S-ranks into SS-ranks?” Hyuna asked.

“That would be difficult. I did help Hunter Kim Sunghan grow into an S-rank, but that was different.”

“Oh, right, you did.”

“I only managed it because I figured out his growth conditions, but it still wasn’t easy. The requirements were strict.”

I also shared the exact date I had regressed. Moon Hyuna cheerfully left first, saying she’d prepare everything nicely. Gyeol glared at Sung Hyunje, as if urging him to leave quickly too.

"Will you send everyone away when you confess?" Sung Hyunje asked.

“Yes. The skill on me hasn’t lifted yet, so I’ll deactivate my Fear Resistance just in case. That should also make things more convincing.”

If Chloe were connected to Park Hayul, she might try to control me. Confessing to an S-rank I supposedly liked without Fear Resistance… it was going to look pretty pathetic. Honestly, it would be more surprising if she didn’t reject me. Just thinking about it made me a little sad. Honestly, it’s not like I had no desire for a normal relationship.

“Even if, by some miracle, she says yes, I’d still turn her down.”

Yerim, who had been supportive, told me to brush it off and stay strong in advance.

Yoohyun, however, still didn’t seem to believe I could be rejected. Sure, maybe on paper my qualifications were appealing…

"You know my situation well, but you’re acting like this?" I asked.

“…Yeah.”

"Didn't you say before that you'd step aside if I got married?"

“Really? Did Han Yoohyun really say that?” Yerim asked, looking between Yoohyun and me in disbelief.

“At the time, I thought it would be fine as long as Hyung was happy.”

"And now you don’t want to do that?"

“…No, I don’t,” Yoohyun shook his head apologetically. It was better for him to admit it than forcing himself to accept it. "Also, you barely know her. I’m not against you dating outright."

"Ajussi, that’s one hundred percent a lie,” Yerim cut in.

"I mean, if she were trustworthy, I’d be okay with it."

“Is there even anyone like that? By your standards, the only one who could pass is probably Peace,” Yerim pointed out.

“Yeah, Peace would be fine.”

Yerim and I both stared at Yoohyun. Oh… he seemed serious.

“Wow… Han Yoohyun," Yerim said slowly.

“Yoohyun-ah, at least consider the fact that Peace is a different species.”

Of course, I trusted Peace too, especially since I’d raised him myself.

“At least Peace would never hurt you, Hyung.”

“Right, right.”

As we talked, the car arrived at the hotel. Even though I was expecting to be rejected, I couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

Younger Siblings Tournament Bracket Reveal

A few things I want to mention before I reveal the bracket (and make the post really long because all the matchups will be listed in text):

Seeding of fictional characters in tumblr polls is inherently subjective. I did try to make it so that more popular characters/media would (most likely) face off against each other in later rounds, but I may be overestimating or underestimating the popularity of some characters/media, especially ones I'm not familiar with. There are some round 1 matchups that are probably a closer match but none of them are between the strongest candidates... I think.

The more niche characters will probably get obliterated in the first round as per Squimbus' Law. This is a tumblr poll and I do fully expect more popular characters to sweep, but that doesn't mean you can't encourage your friends to give your niche faves a fighting chance.

Also there are some matchups I literally just thought would be funny. Please don't take this too seriously.

I'm sorry BNHA fans.

243.Lanchaea’s Lambda (1)

란체아의 람다 (1)

“Hyung, that thing, it’s Sung Hyunjae?”

Yoohyunie, who was held in my arms, suddenly asked.

“Hm?”

“Seeing how he’s taking useless interest in hyung, it seems to be the case.”

…instead of by his face, was that how you’d ended up recognizing him.

“For starters, he’s not.”

But even as I was saying as much, it was difficult to disguise my discomfort. They were different, but also similar. Could this really just be chalked up to coincidence. Honestly, it was a bit much, wasn’t it. Even if you looked past the similarity in appearance, their Skills and weapons were completely identical as well. Their personalities seemed to differ a bit, at least, but it wasn’t as though they were dissimilar.

“‘Sung Hyunjae’ again, is it.”

Sigma, who had caught Yoohyunie’s words, murmured.

“It’s a person who resembles y-, no, someone that you happen to resemble, sir. My ‘Partner’, you see.”

Figuring that I should go ahead and complete the quest as well, while I was at it, I decided to press on.

“While this isn’t my personal opinion–so, completely objectively speaking–he’s quite good-looking and disgustingly accomplished, but at the moment, stuck just watching through a monitor while cooped up in a room as a hot-pink bunch of yarn.”

Why wasn’t the ‘Completed Quest’ notification showing up. Did I have to push it a bit further? Exactly how much was this thing expecting from me, anyway.

“It seems he’s taken up knitting as a hobby as of late, and the scarf did turn out well, at least. He appears to be good at making cocktails too. He’s good at cooking, won’t eat bread crusts, but will unexpectedly the eat shrimp tail ends, and according to Soyoung-ssi, he’s good at origami too. There’s a massive aquarium in his home. Though it got smashed open, it’s been re-filled with water since, I’ve been told. He’d asked before whether I wouldn’t like go fishing together as, apparently, there’s a good location to personally fish for new stock.”

“Fishing?”

“Yeah, d’you wanna come with? You haven’t gone fishing before, right?”

At this point in time, I hadn’t gone before, either. Before regressing, I’d done so on occasion inside of Dungeons. If you managed to catch the relatively knackless fish that lived inside of Dungeons in alive condition, depending on the variety, they could be sold at a fairly hefty markup for ornamental purposes. For some F-rank Dungeons, rather than monster hunting, it was the fishing that would rake in bigger profits.

After barely scrounging up a few more useless tidbits of personal information, the quest finally got marked as complete. That damn Sung Hyunjae, honestly.

“...in any case, there’s some asshole like that. As you can clearly see, the situation seems to have reversed–you should be going right along and turning tail, no, sir?”

Yoohyunie was brimming with mana, while Sigma would have burned through at least half of his own reserves. Even if he were to attempt anything, the outcome was already decided. To be honest, that he’d bothered to chase Yoohyunie all the way here in the first place was unexpected. I hadn’t thought him to be the type that would knowingly enter into a losing fight.

“I’ll concede that the situation is disadvantageous to myself.”

탁, with a light footstep, Sigma retreated. Having leapt to the top of the crumbling ruins of the wall, he looked down at us.

“Alpha–no, ‘Han Yoohyun’, was it. First… An apology, then.”

For some inexplicable reason, Sigma humbly bowed his head. Just when I was wondering what he was up to, since he was hardly the sort to behave that way.

“I’d assumed that C-rank was a renegade un-Awakened lacking an affiliation and had him Marked, you see.”

He just had to open his fat mouth and spew a bunch of useless shit. Apparently informed about how Marks worked, Yoohyunie’s eyes narrowed at the reply.

“Hyung?”

“Well, the procedure had started when–”

Without listening to the rest of my explanation, Yoohyunie pulled down my scarf and scanned the back of my neck. There was the faint sound of teeth grinding together.

“The marking procedure was interrupted before it was completed, though? …did it leave a trace?”

“...a little.”

It didn’t feel any different, so I hadn’t realized, but that goddamned bastard! This is my real body, you hear! I wanted to know what it looked like, but if it was my nape, it wasn’t like I could see it with my own eyes. Ah–the Teacher Skill. When I quickly used it on Yoohyunie, I could see a slight design imprinted on the back of my neck. It looked like the faint stamp of a seal, that had run out of ink during the process.

The nearly extinguished flames suddenly came roaring back alive, blazing up high. Quirking the corners of his lips, this time, that Sigma bastard took out the contract.

“And perhaps owing to your resurrection, it seems that the contract remains in place, still. So it’s now my turn to collect what I’m owed, C-rank.”

The bastard spoke, using the tip of his finger to underline a part of the contract in a long stroke as he continued.

“In the case that Alpha is granted his freedom, within twenty-four hours, the other party will be compensated with intelligence that he deems satisfactory recompense.’ Is what it says, no.”

“I’ll spill the info, so get your ass down here right now!”

“What would happen if the twenty four hours were to pass without my hearing the intelligence, I wonder.”

“...what?”

“‘Waiting’ is something I can do as well, C-rank.”

That’s, this son of a bitch! That Sigma would possibly refuse to receive his compensation, was something I hadn’t anticipated. I should’ve been a bit more judicious with my wording on those conditions!

“Even if you were to wait, do you think that I’ll simply tell you what it was after the contract defaults into being nullified! You’ll never hear what it was, for the rest of your life!”

“Then I should be able to acquire the C-rank and Alpha both. That’s not bad, either.”

…fucking hell, I should’ve left my dongsaeng out of the compensation talks. No, if I could get ahold of the SS-rank detox Item from the Point Store first, then that was that. Since it was single use, it shouldn’t be that expensive, right.

콰르릉!

Just then, the lower part of the rubble Sigma was standing atop of began to melt. As the heap of boulders collapsed, Sigma leapt further backwards with light footsteps. His gaze cold, Yoohyunie watched him with narrowed eyes.

“Feeling sore, I see. Even so–I’ll allow you at least a day to tarry in Achates City.”

Saying so, Sigma’s form disappeared altogether. Yoohyunie set himself down from my hold.

“Hyung should stay here and–, no, here might be too dangerous too.”

“And just who are you trying to go after! That’s just what that bastard wants. The further you get from the Mana Hole, the more disadvantaged you’ll be. That bastard came here with a reservoir tank full of his own faction’s mana in tow, along with a retinue of several S-rank Guards. Not to mention that, right now, you’re in a deeply fatigued state, too.”

He had been continually locked away. Even with SS-rank stats, his physical condition couldn’t be called ‘good’. Had he been an ordinary person, he would’ve already wasted away to the point that it would’ve been difficult for him to stand, as it was.

“We can just buy the detox Item from the Point Store and use that. So.”

“I really can’t go after him?”

- With Rinie here too, Hyung!

As one, both of them turned pleading looks on me. Ah, um, well.

“...well, then again. Since it seems like he wants to capture you alive, it shouldn’t be too dangerous, I suppose. Ah, that’s right, did you happen to see the message the Newcomer sent?”

Yoohyunie shook his head. So he hadn’t even had the time to look at the message, huh. The contents of the message Yoohyunie had received was identical to the one Sung Hyunjae had gotten.

“Then, does that mean I can come back to life the way hyung did a bit ago, even if I die?”

“Uh, that’s not…….”

After debating whether I should tell him for a moment, I decided to speak honestly. Since, so long as it could be helped, we’d decided not to hide anything from each other.

“I entered this world with my real body.”

“What? T-then hyung’s–!”

“In exchange, the number of lives I have is five. Since I’ve used one up, I have four left still, now.”

I told him about the disks too. And how, somehow or another, Sung Hyunjae seemed to have ended up inside of the System as well. Even as he frowned slightly, Yoohyunie nodded his head.

“...I’ll just stay by hyung’s side. Even if there’s four left, you never know what might happen. I can’t just leave hyung behind. And without Eunhae, going together would only end up being more dangerous.”

“No need to worry about that. Though, it does have a thirty minute time limit.”

I bought a MiniMini Cookie from the Point Shop and ate it. Soon after, my body shrunk to a tiny size. After his initial surprise, Yoohyunie carefully wrapped his hands around me to pick me up. Having scuttling down the length of Yoohyunie’s arm to approach, Rinie made circles around me.

- Hyung! Hyung! So cute! Like Rinie!

“At about this size, it should be easy to protect me, even without going out of your way. And your flame resistance should be conveyed perfectly well, too. And with my stats at C-rank, plus the S-rank equipment, it shouldn’t be like when I’m an F-rank, where even a glancing blow could be life-threatening.”

- Rinie wants to hold Hyung! Let Rinie hold you please!

Saying that he would do a very good job of protecting me, Rinie squeezed me in a tight hug with his forelegs. But then, if you’re doing that, you won’t be able to help Yoohyunie, you know. As it turned out, because there happened to be a shirt with a chest pocket in Yoohyunie’s–no, Alpha’s inventory, he changed into it and I went into the pocket. Unwilling to give up hope, Irin circled around me.

“Let’s quickly track and take him down!”

From the Point Shop, I bought ‘Hunting Hound(C)’(1). When I activated the single-use Item that would let me track something down within a 3km radius, after setting it on top of the contract with Sigma, soon enough, something that resembled a firefly popped out and, as though signaling for us to follow, flitted meaningfully in place. 텅, with the sound of feet kicking off pavement, Yoohyunie’s body soared into the air.

By scattering viridian willow leaves a short distance ahead and stepping on the leaves, he leapt forward in consecutive movements to climb to the top of a building shrouded in darkness. Nearly the very instant the tips of his feet touched down on the building, 훅–, his body launched forward once more. Several buildings passed by underfoot, in the span of seconds.

“My Point Shop seems to be different from hyung’s reward store.”

“Huh?”

“My reward store is only showing Skills and weapons.”

Yoohyunie, who had been skimming his status and quest windows as he raced on, spoke. Though there was a large selection available, there was nothing like a ‘Universal Key’, ‘MiniCookie’, or tracking Item available, he said. In fact, the Skills and weapons were priced far higher when compared with my reward shop, too.

“...did the Newcomer actually show me some thoughtfulness?”

Or, it might’ve been that Sung Hyunjae had tampered with it, too. In any case, I’d gotten some good profit margins as a result.

- 크르르르르

In the distance, the snarls of monsters could be heard. That Sigma bastard, had he headed towards the location of the SS-rank monsters. If he could rope in the Achates City Guards as well, then it would likely improve his odds. What a cop-out.

“Yoohyun-ah, don’t worry about mana.”

“But this world’s–”

“Hyung has a ton of mana potions. I can buy them from the Point Shop, too. So go all out on using your Skills.”

Hyung will generously pour all of the mana potions I’d so assiduously saved out for you. I’d like it if I could cast the Attack Skill 2x Share on you too, but regrettably, I’d used it on that damned guy already.

Another building passed by below. As he stopped on top of a desolate half-crumbling building, the grotesque figure of a monster came into full view.

A monster with scales tantamount to SS-grade armor covering its body. Not far away, what looked to be monsters resembling a gigantic serpent and bear were surrounded by Achates Guards as well. All three seemed to have sustained little to no damage. It seemed that, as Guards below S-rank, the most they could do was throw themselves at the problem in the hopes of buying some time.

And over on the far side, on a building located near the serpent, that Sigma bastard was standing. As though telling us to draw closer, he showed us a smile. That it resembled a certain nugu-ssi(2) only made my mood worsen further.

“Be careful, hyung.”

“Hold on a sec, Yoohyun-ah.”

Stopping Yoohyunie, who had been about to rush forward towards Sigma, I took out an Item. ‘Over Here(SS)’.

“Let’s start things off with a bang, first.”

Cleaning up the Achates and Solemnis Guards hanging around would make things go smoother later. I aimed the pistol that was approximately double my current body at the place where that Sigma bastard was. 반짝, the muzzle of the gun twinkled briefly. It wasn’t that anything had been fired from the gun. With that signal, having designated the location, a brief moment later.

구그긍–

Something appeared from above, in the sky above Sigma and the giant serpent monster. The round object, which had plummeted to the ground in a blink.

콰아아앙–!!

Exploded. Light, as blinding as the rays of the dawning sun, burst outwards, spiking as both a tremendous roar of sound, as well as firepower. Everything in the surroundings was wiped clear in an instant. A faint breeze and a sense of heat reached even where we were, despite the considerable distance.

An Item that would drop an SS-grade bomb at the indicated location, up to three uses.

- 샤아아!

- 쿠워어어!

The monsters howled raucously. The snake, its body mottled with burns from having been bombarded dead-on, writhed violently. Each time it did so, spurts of venom, as well as a miasmic aura, spilled into its surroundings. Even before the heat from the detonation had settled, Yoohyunie leapt into the air. It was an element that was incapable of harming even a hair on my dongsaeng’s head, to begin with.

“My poison resistance did drop in grade, but it’s still S-rank! We can just buy an antidote, too!”

As it so happened, the pocket was located right next to his heart. If the venom tried to permeate through, it should be filtered through my resistance first, and subsequently be purified. Since he had SS-rank stats, too, he should be able to hold up to the poison all the better; even with only S-rank poison resistance, an SS-rank serpent’s venom would still be manageable.

But not for Sigma.

Stepping on viridian willow leaves, Yoohyunie’s body breached Sigma’s proximity in a blink. 화르륵, dark blue flames surged. By assimilating the residual heat from the detonation, even with the application of a small amount of mana, they surged and raged wildly.

Neither did Sigma stay still. Apparently having replenished his mana in the meanwhile, golden currents of electricity enveloped him in a spectacular display. As his chain wove around him in a long slithering movement.

“Irin!”

As Yoohyunie’s command fell, an enormous crimson mass lurched forward from behind Sigma. Irin, having taken the form of an imugi, while cloaked in blue flames, stretched fangs and talons towards Sigma.

카가각, immediately after the chains moved to rebuffed the horned dragon’s attack–without letting the window of opportunity slip by, Yoohyunie lunged at Sigma’s back.

The blade held in Yoohyunie’s hand swung in an arc. Lightning and fire mixed together, devouring the other. Clothes tearing in a long line, Sigma extricated his body through a barely discernible lapse in guard between Irin and Yoohyunie. But that was where the serpent happened to be. An SS-rank monster that’d had its body partly melted away, brimming with poison.

- 시이익!

Flicking its crimson tongue, the serpent stretched its jaws wide open. Sigma, who had been caught up in the miasma, grimaced slightly; the other end of the chain that was blocking Irin shot out, and.

콰득!

Pierced through the serpent’s head. In a smooth movement, by treading on the chain, Sigma vaulted up to the top of the serpent’s head. As though he’d been anticipating Yoohyunie’s pursuit, by jerking on the chain, he impelled the serpent to spit its venom at him.

- 키익!

Mad with pain, the serpent sprayed a particularly viscous batch of poison. Before it could come in contact with Yoohyunie’s body, Irin opened his mouth, sending a billow of flames forth.

콰과과과, burning through the venom in a instant, the Breath of blue flames swallowed up the serpent’s head. Subject to flames that bore infernally high temperatures, the serpent perished without being able to make a sound. As the serpent’s head–burnt to an indistinguishable, charred state–toppled to the ground, a bundle of points blinked into existence.

“Yoohyun-ah, grab the Points!”

The Points I saw were of a far lower number than with the SS-rank monsters from before. A nod towards the acknowledgement of the hardships I’d gone to to pull off the bombings, then.

Sigma had already retreated further without even a single scrap of cloth catching fire, however. Tch, how agile. That guy must have the battle foresight too, after all. But even so, seemingly having been affected by the miasma, his coloring had turned slightly pale.

Apparently having used up a significant amount of his strength, Irin returned to the form of a crimson salamander and approached my side. Just when he was about to launch another attack on Sigma.

타다다다다–!

The sounds of a helicopter could be heard. Was it one of Solemnis’ helicopters? Wasn’t going so far as to mobilize even a helicopter cheating!

“Yoohyun-ah, be careful! There are some larger weapons that use up a lot of mana, that are capable of producing S-rank attacks or higher!”

Nodding his head, Yoohyunie used the hand not holding onto his sword to draw a sniper rifle out of his inventory. Thinking to use a sniper rifle to take on a military-use helicopter was a preposterous notion–but when it was an Item in the hands of an SS-rank Guard that was in question, that was a different story. The rifle was leveled at the helicopter, and.

덜컹.

The side of the hulking helicopter slid open. I was wondering whether a weapon would be pointed outside, but what revealed itself ended up being.

부와아앙–

A giant motorbike, roaring noisily. Three sets of bikes dropped out of the helicopter. The bike that was at the fore amongst them had a lance protruding in front. Crimson strands of hair streamed through the air under the moonlight.

“Ho, you bastards! Lanchaea’s Lambda has arrived!”

Upon touching down on the ground, along with a boisterous roar, the bike accelerated in an instant. Reaching an incredible speed through what was most certainly the work of a Skill, the bike collided with the bear-shaped monster. The moment the tip of the lance came into contact, the hide that had been as durable as steel plates crumpled alongside the spearpoint, shredding as though reduced to so much tissue paper.

And soon thereafter–with the sound of a sack of water bursting open, the bear’s body quite literally shattered into infinitesimal fragments.

끼이익, with a long screech of tires against pavement, the bike came to a stop; Lambda, who had eliminated the SS-rank monster in a flash, hefted the lance upright. Displaying a smile, she waved her hand in our direction.

“Hi there, young master!”

It hardly needed lengthy deliberation. It was Moon Hyuna.

+(Q&A)

Q) i’m a big fan of the willow leaves Skill, and because i don’t think i recall seeing an instance of a physical attack that uses only the willow leaves: is it that, typically, its true form lacks substance, like a hologram, or is it that it does have a physical presence, but is unable to achieve significant force?

A) the usual form is similar to a hologram. expending a minimal amount of mana, it’s merely shaped into the ‘framework’ that resembles willow leaves. as a result, even when countless willow leaves are created, the amount of mana consumed is on the lower end. it’s typically used only to obscure sight, but as that mana is han yoohyun’s, han yoohyun is capable of traversing across them. this is achieved by reinforcing just the willow leaves being stepped on by han yoohyun with an increased amount of mana, the very instant he steps on them; exceptional mana control is required to sustain the flow, lest it be interrupted. it can be used in a variety of different ways, but as the willow leaves are numerous in count, it can be difficult to find an opportunity to use it in the first place^^ lifting another person or an object with them should be feasible as well, but it would require a far greater amount of mana and magical energy in return; and should a clash with the other’s magical energy occur, unable to provide continued support, they may end up being dropped as a consequence.

+(Q&A)

Q) you’d mentioned before that sung hyunjae would occasionally go fishing, and that song taewon, han yoojin, and kang soyoung had accompanied him prior; did those three enjoy fishing with sung hyunjae as well, though?? and why did sung hyunjae want to go fishing with these individuals in particular?

A) kang soyoung shuddered in revulsion. with her boss, she’d rather not do anything other than Dungeon raids^^ meanwhile, for song taewon, fishing is an activity well-suited to him. to be precise, what he enjoys is quietly casting the fishing line while hoping that none of the fish will bite. if the occasion ever arose where he could go on a casual fishing trip with han yoojin, he would probably take well to fishing too. he’d likely complain upon seeing sung hyunjae doing well, or run interference to entertain himself. when he fails to catch very many fish, he’ll probably joke at sung hyunjae to try zapping them with a bit of electricity. electrofishing is illegal, everyone^^ in kang soyoung’s case, she happened to get caught up in things as a casualty, while in han yoojin and song taewon’s case, it’s because sung hyunjae wished to share his hobby with them. with those two people, he wishes to be able to do an assortment of activities together.

+(Q&A)

Q) i was curious whether the reason sung hyunjae doesn’t eat bread crusts is because it’s a metaphor as it relates to sung hyunjae’s narrative, or if it’s simply a trait indicative of sung hyunjae’s pickiness!

A) typically, the trait goes hand-in-hand with the intended metaphor. it’s a longstanding habit of his ^^

※

+(Q&A)

Q) the small yoojinie that sung hyunjae took with him in the epilogue, how does his culinary preferences pan out? in contrast to the yoojinie who refused to acknowledge his preference for sweets, will he come to like sugary/sweet foods as well? or, does he end up taking after sung hyunjae and/or the elder’s food preferences? does he eat bread crusts? if he happens to show signs of 편식(picky eating), how would the elder and sung hyunjae respond??

A) he’s still in his early years yet, and possesses an ordinary preference for snacks ^^ considering his state as a child, there should be a high possibility that he will learn to like the kinds of foods that he becomes exposed to in his environment. it may be that he comes to like some foods that don’t even exist on earth. from the perspective of a young child, sung hyunjae would likely come off as an immensely cool and strong adult. when he sees that kind of grownup avoiding eating bread crusts, wouldn’t he end up thinking so you shouldn’t eat that part, huh. it might be that he ends up assuming that cutting off the bread crusts is a grown-up thing to do. assuming the young chaos doesn’t intervene, that is. both of them veer towards thinking if i don’t eat the things i don’t like, so what. as the young chaos had lived according to his whims as well, he’s the type to just leave things be so long as there’s no outstanding problems, and sung hyunjae would probably either locate or create various ingredients and foods with a similar enough nutritional value. but, of course, since there’s no substitute [for one’s diet], if it began to affect his health, then they would endeavor to address his picky eating.

ok tsctir theory (spoilers up to chapter 230):

han yoojin will start gaining the skills of everyone he’s ever connected with, whether through the caretaker skill or the teacher skill, once the less shitty kids of world eaters (fuck knowing the proper names) remove the system and he starts being able to gain skills on his own while increasing his man. my reasoning behind this:

from an outsider’s standpoint even compared to his brother, han yoojin is a very odd person, and a lot of han yoohyun’s oddities are explained to be a part of him being a natural born s-rank, so it stands to reason that han yoojin is. not quite human ig??? idk how to explain it

if han yoojin is supposed to be collecting skills, him not having any attack skills tracks bc he’s essentially in the sowing stage and if u reap too early, u get shitty crops

han yoojin getting the double attack title (the requirements for that title r practically tailored for ppl with the caretaker title, come ON) adds to this bc if one of his kiddos dies, he has to be able to handle double their power, meaning a lot of the skills he learned are from the double power standpoint and being able to use it as he did at that point in time will increase efficiency

from absorbing the dragon guy he killed’s powers (it took him one try to perfect the mind thing come ON), all the times he gained other’s powers (blackie’s especially!! she only had like 5 seconds of memories with han yoojin and he said so himself that the more memories someone has with him, the easier time he has learning their skills, and it still took him less than a minute to be able to fully use the powers and less than an hour to use them efficiently!!), and how easily he aquisited to c-rank stats in the virtual reality game thing (“his friend died :(“ skill would mean he’d had c-rank stats before but they prolly weren’t all the same and he only had them for an hour), u can see he gets a handle on skills extremely quickly.

the teacher skill means he’s able to feel other ppl’s skills through them, making it easy to tell how they do that

it’d explain why newcomer told him that those close to him wouldn’t get hurt through their plan but he might

it’d explain why he’s only supposed to raise 50 s-classes. one person with all those skills doubled will be MUCH past l-rank and will prolly be better against the world eaters who will prolly be strong enough that you’d have to be above l-rank to be able to even just touch them, AND he’ll prolly have to fight off the more shitty kid gods, which we know from the dragon dude and jellyfish r very different and generally high level l-rank, which means he has to have a wide range of skill to be able to take care of them

a primary goal of a caretaker is to protect. while, considering the natural born s-class, it isn’t strictly necessary at first, when the devouring commences, it will be.

it’d be rlly cool lmao

this being true would also mean that there’s a good chance the good kid gods r planning on using him to not just save his world, but to kill their parents, which is honestly just a sick concept that i fully support

[yersina]

hi! i saw you post about suggesting prompts, what about a pov outsider on post-regression hyj? it could be from the main cast or some staff from the association, tv staffs, etc etc! feel free to go wild!

Seo Byunghoon’s first job as a newly Awakened hunter is working as the secretary for the boss of HR at Haeyeon—and, by extension, Haeyeon as a whole. It’s not the glory that most hunters imagine, but Seo Byunghoon likes his job, and he especially likes the safety that it offers. He’s a C-Rank, which means that he could probably make a fair bit of money as the lead for lower-ranked dungeon teams, but he’s fond of having his limbs where they are and not having to regularly dive into near-death experiences.

Seok Simyeong is a fair but strict supervisor, and Byunghoon quickly learns to adopt his no-nonsense attitude, especially towards the overconfident hunters that swagger in, looking for a place at Haeyeon. At least once a week, an E- or F-Rank tries to come in and talk their way into joining, and it’s almost always Byunghoon’s job to turn them away.

Today, a tired-looking man walks in and tells him, “Hey, I want to talk to Yoohyun.” Byunghoon is appalled at his informality.

“The guild leader doesn’t take appointments,” he informs the visitor, trying to keep his annoyance off of his face. Guild Leader Han Yoohyun does, technically, but certainly not for people like the man in front of him. “Do you have any other business with Haeyeon?”

The man sighs like Byunghoon is the one inconveniencing him. “I just want to talk to him, okay? He’s my—tell him Yoojin came to see him.”

Byunghoon eyes him suspiciously. “Can I see your ID?”

There’s nothing wrong with the card that the man hands over, as far as Byunghoon can tell. Han Yoojin, 23, F-Rank hunter. “Are you related to the guild leader?” he asks, eyes catching on the last name.

“Yeah, he’s my brother.” Han Yoojin doesn’t look at him as he says this, though, and scuffs a shoe on the ground. It all leaves a bad taste in Byunghoon’s mouth.

Seok Simyeong never told him about any protocol for the guild leader’s relatives—as far as Byunghoon knew, Han Yoohyun doesn’t have any relatives. Not ones that would want to visit, at least. He’s not allowed to make appointments for the guild leader on his own anyway, so he reaches for the phone and calls Seok Simyeong.

“Hello?”

“Seok Simyeong-nim, a man named Han Yoojin is here to see the guild leader.” Byunghoom doesn’t like how Han Yoojin stiffens at the sound of Seok Simyeong’s name.

A sigh rattles down the line. “Oh, him again? Just send him away. The guild leader doesn’t want to see him.”

“Understood.”

“If he comes again, you can send him away then too.”

“Yes, sir.”

Byunghoon hangs up the phone, and even before he opens his mouth, he can tell that Han Yoojin knows what he’s about to say. “Unfortunately, I cannot arrange a meeting for you right now. If you have any other business with Haeyeon, please let me know. Otherwise, we ask that you leave the premises.”

Han Yoojin’s lips thin, expression darkening. For a long moment, Byunghoon braces himself to walk around the desk and escort Han Yoojin out of the doors. It wouldn’t be the first time it’s happened, but it will be the first time that Byunghoon has felt so much grim satisfaction from doing so.

In the end, though, Han Yoojin’s mouth twists into a bitter frown and he slinks out of the building without another word. Byunghoon waits, tense, for him to change his mind and barge in again, but he doesn’t come back.

Byunghoon’s first impression of Han Yoojin is an angry, resentful man, one that he can hardly believe is related to the guild leader. Han Yoojin is weak in all the ways that Han Yoohyun is strong, and Byunghoon can understand now why the guild leader chose to cut off ties with such a person.

Unfortunately, this is not the last time he encounters the man in the next few years, and his impression only gets worse.

-

Byunghoon stares down at the personnel file in his hands. Han Yoojin, it’s labeled. Byunghoon never thought this day would come even in his wildest dreams. He doesn’t bother asking Seok Simyeong if he’s certain, but he indulges in a healthy amount of doubt in the privacy of his own mind.

“He’s not an official employee, but Han Yoojin-ssi will be by on Tuesday to receive his tour of Haeyeon,” Seok Simyeong is saying. “You’ll be in charge of showing him around.”

“Yes, sir.”

Byunghoon is not looking forward to this at all.

When Tuesday comes around, Byunghoon spends the morning watching the clock, tapping his fingers impatiently as the hands creep closer and closer to eleven o’clock. Perhaps Han Yoojin will not show up at all, and Byunghoon won’t have to go through this awful duty.

Right on time, though, the front doors slide open and Byunghoon raises his head to meet the hard gaze of Haeyeon’s guild leader. “Guild Leader!” He scrambles to his feet to bow properly. “I wasn’t expecting you today.”

“I have a dungeon later today, so I won’t be here for long.” Han Yoohyun turns to the person next to him, which is when Byunghoon realizes that Han Yoojin came in with him. “Hyung,” he says, and Byunghoon is shocked by how his entire stance softens. Is this really the person who refused to let Han Yoojin past the front step for three years? “I have to go. Stay here. Don’t go anywhere.”

Han Yoojin rolls his eyes. “Yah, Yoohyun-ah, I can take care of myself.”

“Still, hyung should be careful.”

Byunghoon watches in stunned confusion as Han Yoojin waves off the guild leader like a mother scolding her son to go do his homework. “Ah, Seo Byunghoon-ssi, isn’t it?” he says, turning back to Byunghoon and sketching a belated bow. “I’ll be in your hands.”

There’s something… lighter about the man now, he thinks. Han Yoojin no longer carries himself like there’s an immeasurable burden upon his back. The anger and sadness has made way for something brighter, and when combined with the gentle way the guild leader was treating his brother, Byunghoon is persuaded to hesitantly set aside his previous conception of Han Yoojin. The person in front of him is almost someone else entirely.

“Yes,” he says slowly, still rewriting his three-years-old idea of Han Yoojin. “Follow me. We can start with the training facilities.”

This is a good thing, he thinks as he leads Han Yoojin along a familiar path through the Haeyeon buildings. This new Han Yoojin has the approval of both Seok Simyeong and the guild leader, and the man himself seems much happier for it. Byunghoon’s not sure what brought this change on, but it seems like only good things have come of it so far.

Maybe this is a new era of Haeyeon, he muses, before chuckling to himself quietly. What a fanciful thought.
