Daily Life?

    ,It’s been a while. How have you been, Manager-nim?”

    ,I’m always the same. You came with your friends today?”

    ,Yes. My final exams finished today.”

    ,I should tell them to make it extra delicious today.”

    Anyone could tell it wasn’t a conversation between a waiter and a customer, but between acquaintances.

    ,Didn’t I catch his eye?”

    It’s definitely possible.

    Sojin is 170cm tall, and I’m 140cm. That’s about a 30cm difference, and the waiter looks to be about 185cm, quite tall.

    Well, someone who plays Leole wouldn’t spot me before Sojin. I probably wasn’t even in his line of sight.

    I subtly jumped in place so the waiter could see me.

    Poljjak.

    ,Ah, I’m sorry. I’ll guide you to your seats. Could you tell me the name of the reservation?”

    ,Arang made the reservation, so the name should be Lee Ah.”

    Didn’t he see me? I took a small step forward and jumped again.

    Poljjak.

    ,Ah, I’ve confirmed it. This way, please.”

    There’s no way he can’t see me. I’ve done this much, and he’s not interested in me.

    No way. Does this guy not play games!?

    Even if he doesn’t play Leole, there’s no way he wouldn’t know me.

    I gained fame in older games while playing Space War, fame in package games while playing Monster Hunter, and fame in otaku games while playing Brown Dust.

    And yet, he doesn’t know me…!

    That waiter is amazing.

    In an era with virtual reality games, he’s someone who doesn’t play them.

    Well, with a face like that, he probably has a fun daily life even without virtual reality.

    I entered the room the waiter led me to, feeling slightly dejected.

    ,Sojin-ah, who is he?”

    ,Ah, actually, this restaurant is one of the restaurants my parents sponsor. And I’ve come to this restaurant often with my parents.”

    ,Oh, really? That’s why you know the waiter so well.”

    ,To be exact, he’s the manager-nim.”

    ,He’s really handsome.”

    ,Manager-nim is married.”

    ,Of course, with that face, he’d be married already.”

    After attending school for about half a year, I became close enough with the kids to call them best friends.

    But even so, I still don’t know how to jump into their conversations unless it’s about games.

    ,Arang, what did you think?”

    Chanmi handed me a piece of food and spoke to me, who wasn’t saying anything.

    ,Huh? About, about what?”

    ,Isn’t that manager-nim handsome?”

    ,U-uh, yeah.”

    He is handsome. He’s so handsome that you get a likeability boost just from seeing him for the first time. But it stops right there.

    Even though I’m fused with Arang’s spirit, my likeability towards men is stuck at 30%. It’s not that 30% is low. If 0% is a stranger, then 30% is a close friend.

    It’s not like my likeability towards women goes all the way up either.

    It’s not a 50/50 split even though I’m fused with Arang’s spirit. Arang’s spirit is already dead and hasn’t grown. So, it feels like my spirit is 70% and Arang’s spirit is 30%.

    That’s why my spirit is 70%, so my likeability towards women goes up to 70%, and Arang’s spirit is 30%, so my likeability towards men only goes up to 30%.

    ,Wait, then does that mean slightly handsome women-no. What am I doing thinking about this.

    Let’s just eat some delicious food.

    I need to eat quickly and go home to play games with everyone.

    ==

    Chwaak!

    ,Ooh.’

    Arang was impressed by Chanmi’s skills.

    Chanmi is smart enough to be the top student in the entire school.

    I didn’t think it would have much to do with moving her body, but her skill in ruthlessly sweeping away monsters is impressive.

    Of course, it’s far below the skills of top-tier users, but considering she’s a middle schooler, and not even a male middle schooler but a female one, it’s impressive.

    ,If she does well in Leole Log, I bet she’ll get up to 30%?’

    Nakyung the tank, Chanmi the melee dealer, Hyewon the ranged dealer, Sojin the healer. The female middle schooler party’s skills have improved much more than Arang expected.

    For reference, Hyewon switched her main job from Sorceress to Black Mage. Hyewon says it was her destiny, but I brushed it off.

    They’re becoming high schoolers soon, so I’m worried they need to get over their chuunibyou phase quickly.

    Before I knew it, everyone had reached max level and was wearing the highest-level equipment obtainable from content excluding raids, though not quite the final gear.

    Right now, the female middle schooler party and Arang are on an adventure in an uncharted area.

    Leole had a major update, greatly expanding the map and adding various updates, so if you find unique items, you can actually make a lot of money, so many users started adventuring like adventurers.

    So, today, the female middle schooler party and Arang decided to explore together in Leole to have fun.

    They decided to explore the Perde Continent, where the beginner village is located.

    The biggest reason for choosing the Perde Continent is the possibility of finding more information related to the Black Mage.

    ==

    Reina was enjoying tea time with Emma in her guild house.

    You can taste flavors in Leole.

    Since you can taste various flavors that you can’t taste in reality, Reina likes to drink tea in Leole because she likes tea.

    That’s why she even reached the highest level as a chef, a non-combat job.

    ,Emma. You should drink it quickly too. The new tea I got this time tastes really good?”

    Reina said, lifting her tea and speaking to Emma, who was diligently editing in front of her.

    ,Ah? Really?”

    Emma didn’t look at Reina, lifted her tea, and took a small sip.

    ,Oh. It’s not bad?”

    ,Right? It’s a tea that was being sold in a newly discovered area, and it tasted good.”

    ,This will get expensive soon, won’t it? Is the supply decent?”

    ,I’m not sure about that. It hasn’t been discovered for very long, so I don’t know how long the respawn time is.”

    ,The taste, the aftertaste, and the aroma are all good. It’ll get expensive, won’t it?”

    Emma, who was going to drink tea while editing, put aside her editing work for a moment and focused on the tea because it tasted better than she thought.

    ,By the way, what is Arang doing today?”

    ,Today, she went on an adventure with her school friends to, where was it? Oh, right. The northern part of the Perde Continent, I think?”

    ,Perde?”

    Reina tilted her head after hearing Emma’s words.

    ,Isn’t that the continent with the beginner village? Isn’t that continent fully explored?”

    ,There was the Black Mage incident recently, right? Because of that, people were exploring the Perde Continent and discovered a new area, or so I heard?”

    ,Oh? Really?”

    Reina opened her eyes wide and put her tea down on the table.

    Then, she opened the interface window and went to the Leole Reddit.

    It was to find information about the Perde Continent, but the topic that was becoming a hot issue on Reddit caught her eye even more.

    To be exact, she couldn’t help but notice it.

    ,Why is Reddit full of stories about Arang?’

    There are stories about Arang usually too. But the ratio is 5%? That’s about it.

    No matter how famous Arang is, it’s natural for it to cool down over time.

    But right now, Reddit is almost 50% about Arang. At this rate, there’s a 100% chance Arang caused some kind of accident.

    She looked in detail to see what kind of accident Arang caused.

    ,Wait, it’s not that Arang caused an accident, but something happened to Arang?’

    As soon as she clicked on the post with the most comments under the title of breaking news, the first thing she saw was none other than a quest window.

    [ Order ]

    [Overview]

    The Second World Administrator Miko wants the Fifth World Shaman Iarang to die.

    Submit the remnants of Disnier’s power that come out by killing Iarang in the conflict zone to appease Miko’s anger.

    [Information]

    Time Limit: None

    [Participation Requirements]

    Level 30

    Average Item Level: None

    ㄴItem Level Adjustment: None

    ,What is this!”

    ,What’s wrong?”

    ,Emma! Look at this!”

    Reina visualized her interface and showed it to Emma.

    A quest window that makes it clear that Arang is in danger.

    ,No way. Is this possible?”

    No matter how much Leole has changed to be like reality, there has never been a quest to kill a user, not an NPC.

    But now, an administrator who is called a god is directly issuing a quest to kill Arang.

    It’s not just given to one person, but to most of the users included in the Second Force.

    ,Arang is in danger! Gather the kids right now!”

    ==

    Tting. Tting. Tting. Tting. Tting. Tting.

    I frowned at the alarm sound ringing like crazy while I was talking with the kids.

    I turned off most of the alarms. But the fact that it’s ringing like this means it’s only whispers, so I opened the interface.

    Whispers were coming in continuously.

    Reina, Baedeopgae, Pinku, Emma, ​​Kang Han-gil, etc., all the users who are just my friends were sending them.

    The whispers were coming up like an internet broadcast chat, making my eyes dizzy.

    I checked what was going on and confirmed that a wanted quest had been issued for me.

    A wanted quest.

    The users are looking for me to kill me.

    It wouldn’t matter if it was just me, but I’m playing Leole with my friends right now.

    The problem is that I can see red dots approaching, indicating that our location has been exposed. I don’t want to ruin the good atmosphere right now.

    It’s right to pass quietly now.

    ,I have no choice. I have to hide.’

    I perfectly grasped how far I could hide myself through the method I used to lure the Black Mage last time.

    I took out a carry-on suitcase from my inventory, placed it on the floor, opened the suitcase, erased my arms and legs, slipped inside, and said.

    ,Close it!”
