Seol Jinhee headed to her old college early in the morning. Although she had already graduated, she had a meeting with a professor regarding job hunting. Seol Jinhee’s complexion wasn’t the brightest. Like all job seekers, her head was in a jumble. ‘I don’t want to do any additional specialized training.... Should I just bite my tongue and enter grad school? No, I’d rather just get a job....’ Seol Jinhee walked out of the main gate while mulling over her career path. “?”…-

At first, nothing felt special. Hugo thought he was just like any others he met during missions. The first time Seol Jihu caught Hugo’s attention was when the group of Moles attacked their carriage. Hugo thought he looked scrawny and weak, but to his surprise, Seol Jihu slaughtered the Moles with ease. It was just like Alex said. He was too strong to be a Level 1. In terms of ability, Seol Jihu seemed to match Level 2 and even Level 3. However, the fact that he hesitated to plunder the corpses…

Hugo woke up after being unconscious for a long time. A pang of drowsiness swept through his head. He furrowed his brows, tossed and turned, and then realized that his body didn’t seem to be in such a bad state. Only after confirming that his right arm, which had been pierced by a bolt, was fine did Hugo realize that he was in an unfamiliar room. As he laid there blinking dazedly, he saw some makeshift soundproofing on the other side of the wall. Hugo peeked at the hallway from the small gap in the…

It was just as the woman predicted. After entering Paradise, Hugo grew accustomed to the new world quickly. Almost like a wild animal placed in a new environment. Hugo passed the Tutorial and the Neutral Zone with an above-average grade. Then he signed the contract offered by the woman standing outside the Neutral Zone. He knew that a Red Mark was a slave contract but did not mind it much. He was satisfied with having met a new world that could help him escape his repetitive, everyday life. The…

“Your ramen is the best, Seol!” Today again, Hugo was starting his morning at Seol Jihu’s ramen restaurant. “Hey, I see you’ve got some new ramens on the menu, Seol!” “Ah, yes.” “But what’s up with these names? Seo Yuhui Ramen? Phi Sora Ramen?” “Um.... Yeah, things just turned out that way.” Seol Jihu let out a cough. Hugo didn’t seem to mind. “Anyway, your ramen tastes so good that I feel guilty about eating them alone. I want everyone to have a…

“There is a way to change the future.” Seol Jihu’s ears perked up. Really? There was a way to change the future? “It’s nothing difficult. You just have to set your mind on doing it.” Seol Jihu’s eyes widened. If there was such an easy method, why did Black Seol Jihu and Future Seo Yuhui not say anything about it? Because they didn’t know? Or was it on purpose? Multiple questions arose in his mind, but Seol Jihu first asked. “What is it? Tell me.” “It’s to erase…

Phi Sora packed her bags the same day and moved to SY Apartments. “Uwoah~!” She couldn’t hide her shock upon seeing Seol Jihu’s apartment. Not only did its simple, modern interior decor remind her of the North European style, but it also boasted a jaw-droppingly large space. The view was also phenomenal. When she stood in front of the large window and looked down, the cars on the streets below looked like tiny ants. Standing there and looking at the city’s colorful nightscape, she felt…

After his talk with Seo Yuhui ended, Seol Jihu went out to catch Phi Sora on her way home. This, of course, wasn’t his idea, but Seo Yuhui’s. —How much time do you have left? Why don’t you try talking to Miss Phi Sora before you leave? —I already know more or less what happened that day. Miss Phi Sora talks about it every time she’s drunk. —She won’t know you’re you. You should at least try. Seol Jihu waited for Phi Sora in a park near the apartment complex. Some time went by,…

Seol Jihu looked back, startled. He turned so suddenly that even Seo Yuhui was alarmed. “Ah.... Yuhui.” “...Honey? What’s wrong? You’re acting a little strange.... It doesn’t look like you have a fever....” Seo Yuhui put a hand on Seol Jihu’s forehead before abruptly glaring at him. “Tell me the truth. Did you get another woman?” “No! Of course not!” Seol Jihu jumped and waved his hands in denial. Seo Yuhui giggled. “You really are acting weird today. You even…

“The future?” Seol Jihu was caught off guard. “Yep, the future. Don’t you want to know what your future looks like?” Black Seol Jihu spoke like it wasn’t a big deal. “Well... I obviously am. But can I?” “Not normally.” Black Seol Jihu said outright. “But it’s not like you don’t have contribution points, and the Seven Sins adore you too. It’s not possible normally, but I’m sure they’ll overlook it.” That’s how it was when I went back in time too.…
