Hye-sun, as always, brought Arang’s favorite book and black tea to her hospital room, sitting at the table beside Arang and spending time with her.

Although Arang’s illness had recently eased up suddenly, and her health was improving day by day, Hye-sun, who had been watching Arang’s illness up close, always felt uneasy.

So, she spent even more time by Arang’s side than when Arang was suffering from the illness.

Naturally, Hye-sun, watching Arang’s Leole life right next to her, had unknowingly developed a considerable inner closeness with Arang’s guild members.

,Are you just fighting people these days?

She had always gone to places with many people, like dungeons or raids, to beat up monsters, but recently, she was admiring Arang’s cool appearance, who was only doing 1-on-1 arena matches.

,Time already. I need to let her know now.

After watching Arang’s cool appearance, Hye-sun, realizing that it was 10 minutes past the originally promised time, stood up and pressed the microphone button next to the access device and said,

,Arang-ah, can you hear me?

On the monitor screen, Arang raised her head, manipulated her hands, and said.

[What’s up? Oh, it’s already this late.]

Hye-sun finished talking, confirmed that the power to the access device was off, and used the button on the side of the access device to lift the device covering Arang’s head upwards.

Jiiiing.

As the access device completely rose, Arang’s cute and small face came into view.

Her closed eyes slowly opened, and her eyes, holding death, appeared. Her eyes slowly moved to the side and met Hye-sun’s eyes.

,Unni… Hello…

,Welcome, Arang-ah.

,…

Seueuk.

Arang’s appearance, reaching out her severed hand towards Hye-sun, showing the cut-off surface that was scarred with surgery marks, asking for a hug.

On that cut-off surface, there were old burn marks, not surgery marks. Hye-sun swallowed her guilt and hugged Arang.

,It’s damp?

,Yeah… I worked hard today…

,Let’s go wash up quickly. I’ve already drawn the water.

,As expected of Unni… Thank you.

As always, she held Arang, whose body had become languid from gaming in a half-bath, and laid her down on the massage bed.

,I’ll start with a full body massage first.

,Okay…

Arang, who spends overwhelmingly more time lying down than other people, always needs a massage.

After diligently giving her a massage to prevent stiffness and promote blood circulation, the next step is important.

Because starting today, she will begin abdominal massages.

Seeing Arang struggling so much during her period, Hye-sun contacted a friend of hers who specializes in massage, explained the situation, and was able to learn directly.

Arang’s appearance, all limp and languid from the half-bath and full body massage.

Hye-sun slapped her cheeks, trying to come to her senses at the sight of Arang’s face turning red, her body glistening with oil, and Arang moaning, ,Hueu…

Although she is getting healthier, Arang has a more fragile body than others.

Since she had to massage Arang’s abdomen, which could be said to be her weakest point, Hye-sun took a deep breath and placed her hand on Arang’s stomach.

Soft, squishy Arang’s stomach.

In the past, she only consumed nutrients through medical drugs, so it felt like touching leather, but now, as her illness has eased and she has started to gain weight, she has addictive belly fat.

It’s a touch that’s more addictive than anything else.

Hye-sun slowly massaged Arang’s stomach according to the massage method she learned from her friend.

Hye-sun thought it was effective as Arang’s body trembled slightly with each massage, so she massaged Arang diligently for her sake.

,Eunghat…

Recently, Arang’s mental state in reality has also improved a lot, and although there aren’t many changes in her facial expressions yet, she has become able to express herself more in words, so she started moaning during the massage.

Usually, she makes a sound like she feels refreshed when entering a hot bath, but in Arang’s case, her body is very sensitive, so it feels a bit lewd.

Hye-sun ignored Arang’s moans with a strong mind and focused on the massage for Arang’s sake.

,Ah… It feels so good…

I feel this every time I get a massage from Hye-sun Unni, but getting a massage feels so good.

I’m really happy because I get a full body massage every day.

To what extent? To the point where I think, isn’t it okay to not have arms and legs?

Of course, I know that it causes inconvenience to Hye-sun Unni. I know very well how difficult and hard it is to take care of me, who has no arms and legs, and even give me massages like this.

,But what can I do if it feels so good…!

I think I know why people pay a lot of money to get massages.

I don’t know why Hye-sun Unni takes care of me to this extent. Of course, money plays a big role, but the way Hye-sun Unni looks at me and treats me feels like Anna Unni. Like family.

And the important thing is that there is guilt in her eyes.

Not long after I became Arang, Hye-sun Unni made a mistake in her words to me.

At first, I thought that was the reason. But I became good at speaking, and I even said that it was okay, talking about what happened back then.

I definitely said, ,That’s a relief, back then, and I felt that the matter was resolved.

,That bitter smile when she picked me up earlier… There’s definitely something there.

It wasn’t just because she felt sorry for me or out of pity.

,Is that why Hye-sun Unni is by my side almost 24 hours a day?

I am grateful for Hye-sun Unni’s actions, doing things for me that are hard to do unless you are family, but I can’t help but be curious.

,I’m so curious. But I don’t think she’ll tell me… Heueum… What should I do… Hueut…!

While I was thinking hard, the abdominal massage started, and I felt a coolness and a slight pleasure in my sensitive abdomen.

,I don’t know… First of all… After getting a massage…

But I couldn’t overcome my tired body, my languid body from the half-bath and massage, and I fell asleep in the middle.

Lee Jung-jin, who is active as a Leole arena pro gamer, sighed deeply at the arena ranked game that hadn’t matched for 5 minutes.

,Is it because of the time today that the matching isn’t going well?

-Challenger 10th place, that’s understandable ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Are you thinking of getting 1st place in this tournament too?

,I have to work hard in the tournament. Everyone is good, so I’m practicing even more this time.

Lee Jung-jin, who is being sponsored, was broadcasting with the sponsor’s logo displayed on his broadcast.

Of course, he doesn’t turn on the broadcast a week before the tournament to strategize, but since there are still several months until the tournament, he was broadcasting to communicate with fans.

Lee Jung-jin’s broadcast, with about 1000 people watching even at 3 AM. But because of the time, Lee Jung-jin’s arena matching, who was ranked 10th in the Challenger ranking, was still going on and on.

,I guess I won’t be able to match today. Did everyone go home early today?

-Looks like it? It’s 3 AM, so it’s understandable

-Jung-jin-nim, do you know the user Arang Lee?

,Arang Lee user? Ah, that user who did WFK?

-Keu, the gallery’s pride is the best

-Yeah, that user is right

-Arang-nim, I love you!

,I haven’t seen that user, but I’ve only seen it in articles. Looking at it, it’s said to be the first Korean WFK since the global server was created, which is amazing. And she’s a female user.

-Arang-nim started PVP

-I heard she’s in Grand Master now?

-What’s amazing is that she got to Grand Master with 0 losses ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

,What? 0 losses to Grand Master? Wow, that’s amazing.

-What’s funny is that it hasn’t even been a week since she started PVP ㅋㅋㅋ

-What’s absurd is that she came up as an Assassin

,Wow… Grand Master in a week with 0 losses and an Assassin…? That’s insane talent?

Jung-jin wondered if he could do it too.

,I think I can…

To be honest, if he was told to challenge with his main job, Tanker Warrior, and his sub-job, Magic Swordsman, he thinks he could succeed 100%.

But

,If I was told to do it as an Assassin, I think I would lose at least once.

Assassin. It’s not a bad job for PVP, but there are fewer users who use it when you get to Challenger.

The reason is simple. The difference with counter jobs is bigger than other jobs.

The win rate between Assassin and Tanker jobs is about 3:7, with Tanker jobs being overwhelmingly advantageous. To be honest, if he was to pick up an Assassin now and meet a Diamond Tanker, it would be about even.

But a user who only did raids without doing PVP came up to Grand Master with the Assassin job without a single loss?

This is really amazing.

Ttiriring.

,Wow… It matched in 12 minutes. I’ll win this game lightly and go.

-Go go go go

-Let’s win the last game and go

-Let’s win lightly and go

As soon as he entered the arena, he checked who his opponent was.

Since there are only 100 Challengers in total, you always meet the same people, so you grasp the opponent’s job or style in the 30 seconds before the game starts.

What, why can’t I see them?

Jung-jin was flustered because he couldn’t see anyone in front of him and lowered his head.

,Arang Lee, Arang Lee? Is that Arang Lee? Looks like it? She has the WFK title.

-Wow, wait a minute, Jung-jin-nim and Arang-nim are meeting here? ㅋㅋㅋ

-She met him as soon as she reached Grand Master ㅋㅋㅋ

-Looks like they matched because there aren’t many people? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

,I’ll seriously face Arang-nim, who is called the strongest physical player in Leole, once.
