Return

I can’t fall asleep.

I arrived at school, spent the morning chatting with the class president and friends I’m getting a little closer to, and then it was time for class.

The first class was science.

Maybe it’s because I slept for almost 11 hours, but I couldn’t fall asleep.

So, maybe that’s why I understand what they’re saying more than yesterday, but it’s still difficult material.

Still, because it’s science class, there’s a lot of fascinating stuff about connectors, holograms, space, and so on, so even when I try to concentrate, my focus quickly fades.

A 10-year-old’s mind is definitely difficult.

It’s hard to focus on class, but strangely, the activity I’m doing now is strangely easy to focus on.

That is.

Notebook games.

The notebook doodles I used to do in elementary school, that notebook game where you make games.

It’s not just fun because my mental age has dropped and my concentration has become like a child’s.

Connectors that allow you to enjoy virtual worlds, cell phones that can display holograms.

The technology of this era is unbelievably advanced compared to when I lived.

And my parents are world-renowned tycoons. They built a new building at the most famous hospital in Korea, and I have my own personal medical team and bodyguards.

The thought that the doodles I make in my notebook could actually be made into a game if I wanted to made making notebook games feel so fun-

Skeuk.

While I was diligently doodling in my notebook, something darkened, so I slowly raised my head and saw a science teacher who looked a bit older standing in front of me.

“Hieeuk.”

Without even realizing it, I quickly hid the notebook with my hand.

The teacher saw me do that, smiled, patted my head, and then started the class again.

‘Hoo… the front row is dangerous after all.’

If I just went to a seat in the middle, I wouldn’t get caught so easily because I’m short, but the front row and the front of the classroom door are too noticeable.

As I carefully doodled in my notebook, watching everyone’s reactions, first period disappeared.

‘Hoo. I successfully finished a class without sleeping for the first time. I’ve grown.’

“Arang-ah. Let’s go to the locker room!”

The class president and friends each held clothes that clearly looked like gym uniforms in one hand.

“Heok. I didn’t bring mine…!?”

I didn’t even think about gym clothes.

I was so out of it this morning that I didn’t even think about what subjects were on the schedule today.

“Don’t worry. I brought Arang’s.”

“Oh…! As expected of Na-gyeong.”

As expected of bodyguard Na-gyeong Noona. From my school bag to just the things I need, she hands them to me from the side, which is so convenient.

She takes care of everything I miss like this, so it feels like I have a secretary.

No, when I think about it, there’s no difference between her and a secretary.

“How was Na-gyeong able to bring Arang’s gym clothes?”

“Because I live with Arang.”

“Eeeeeh!?”

“What? Didn’t you guys know? Arang-nim’s house is a building.”

When the girls were surprised, a boy who knew me well came closer with a triumphant look on his face.

“A building!?”

“Yeah. Don’t you know who Arang-nim’s parents are?”

“Wh-who are they?”

“They’re the CEO of Masble.”

“Masble!? That Masble!?”

“Yeah. That’s one of the reasons why our Arang-nim is called Princess! The entire building at Seoul Asan Hospital is Arang’s house. And there are a lot of Arang’s personal medical staff and bodyguards there!”

Why are you saying it so proudly.

“Wow… Arang was a princess.”

I’m going to the locker room with the kids, but I feel like I’m committing a crime.

It’s been over half a year since I started living as Arang, and I’ve taken baths with many women like Pinku and Anna, but because they’re middle school girls…

No. I’m a middle school girl now too. I’m a middle school girl. A middle school girl.

Locker rooms separated by grade.

And there were lockers that all the students used.

The world has gotten so much better these days.

When I took off my school uniform to change into my gym clothes, everyone’s eyes were on me.

“Euing?”

I turned my head and looked around too.

The kids were all wearing underwear, but I didn’t really think much of it anymore, and it just felt like, “Oh, there’s underwear like that too.”

And I could see at a glance that I was very different from the other kids.

Well, this can’t be helped.

I wear clothes that go beyond the ordinary to secure my prosthetic arms and legs to my body.

“Everyone, change quickly. There’s not much time left!”

At class president Chan-mi’s words, the kids started changing their clothes again.

“I’ll help you.”

Na-gyeong, who had already changed into her gym clothes, helped me put on my gym clothes.

It was the beginning of the semester for gym class, so instead of doing something else, we did things like running and stretching.

At the beginning, we were supposed to run around the playground as a warm-up, but I slowly walked around the playground with Na-gyeong.

And after gym class, I slept like I was passed out until lunchtime.

“Heueum~”

A sky so gloomy that it felt like red blood would flow down.

A huge planet that looked like it would fall at any moment existed in the sky, and even that planet was emitting a red aura.

Leo-re, where I’m more powerful than in reality. And more power than back then.

As expected, I feel omnipotent when I’m in field boss mode.

“Hey. Princess.”

“Oh? It’s been a while, Mister?”

“That’s because you haven’t logged into Leo-re!”

“That’s true too!”

When I’m in field boss mode, Leo-re announces that I’ve appeared, so it wasn’t long before the N-Sidara guild came to defeat me.

The N-Sidara guild is one of the TOP3 guilds in Leo-re.

It used to be a rival guild with Mead, but after our Arang Arang guild appeared, it was pushed down to TOP3.

And the N-Sidara guild leader is quite an enthusiastic user.

Especially, he always tries to be the first to defeat me, the field boss, and he always challenges me at least once a day when I appear as a field boss.

I’ve seen him so often that we’ve become quite close now.

“Ahem… I noticed you haven’t logged in recently, is there something wrong…”

Ugh, the tsundere smell is so strong.

I smiled as I watched the Western man turn his head slightly to avoid eye contact.

“Are you worried about me?”

“Wh-what are you talking about! If you don’t come, we can’t be the first to defeat the field boss, so that’s why!!!”

“Okay. Okay~”

The N-Sidara guild members also laughed at their guild leader’s actions.

“I’ll definitely defeat you today.”

“Come at me.”

I took out two greatswords as tall as me and took a stance.

Leo-re after 3 days. The Berserker I haven’t faced in a while.

But today, I’m more motivated than ever.

==

“Heoeok… Heoeok… Is that really a person!?”

The N-Sidara guild leader was dumbfounded as he watched Arang wielding a huge greatsword in front of him and mercilessly sweeping away his guild members.

He was confident today.

He thought with his guild members about how to neutralize Arang and how to confuse her when facing her.

But it all became unnecessary.

‘How is it possible for a person to identify only the debuff skills from so many attacks and parry only the debuff skills…!’

Each skill has a different color and the way it flies is slightly different.

But there are 20 guild members. Among them, 10 people can do ranged attacks.

To make it difficult to parry, 10 people intentionally timed their ranged attacks to attack at the same moment.

Each job and skill has a different casting time, so they intentionally matched the time it took for the attacks to go out so that Arang would have a hard time parrying.

But Arang showed the magic of picking out only the debuff attacks from the 10 attacks and parrying them.

‘That kind of physical ability and reflexes are really cheating. It feels stupid that the Arang Arang guild, which has someone like that, couldn’t even do WFK.’

This time too, the Arang subjugation ended in failure.

“Hoo… As expected, attacking like this is one of the fun things about Leo-re.”

Arang, who wiped out the N-Sidara guild, stretched out her arms above her head.

The coolness and moderate excitement I feel after a long time, the weight I feel in my hands, the battlefield where I feel like I’ll die if I lose my focus.

Information that I can’t feel in reality is converted into senses and felt.

I’ve been in the virtual world for 16 hours a day, so the things I take for granted feel even more special when I go to school, so Leo-re feels even more fun.

On top of that, the senses are conveyed more sharply and clearly.

“Was I tired because I was playing games for 16 hours a day until now? Is it because I’m playing a virtual world game for the first time in almost 40 hours? It definitely feels refreshing.”

“Hello everyone~”

“Arang-ah!”

After working as a field boss for 2 hours and returning to the guild house, all the guild members who were logged in were waiting for me.

Especially BellyBlanket, as soon as I entered the guild house, hugged me, lifted me up, and buried his face in my stomach.

“How have you all been?”

“Princess-nim!”

“Guild leader-nim!”

Maybe it’s because we’re meeting after 3 days, but everyone looked at me with happy faces.

“I thought you were quitting the game!”

“We were worried about what would happen to our guild…”

“Sorry, sorry. I suddenly started going to school, so I was out of it.”

I lay down on my personal bed in the center of the guild house after a long time, rolled around, and chatted with the guild members about what interesting things had happened in Leo-re recently and about my school life.
