Chapter 56: What if you have a heroin? it is a naked

The storm of dark red emotions vanished, and the view before my eyes began to clear.

“Seoul’s evening sky… it’s truly good to see it alive.”

The surrounding situation was so messed up that I couldn’t even politely say it was okay, but the city itself hadn’t completely vanished.

“It’s a real relief it ended before it completely vanished.”

I stroked Luna, who was in my arms, while simultaneously checking the surroundings. I needed to see who was there and who wasn’t.

Luna and I were currently severely conspicuous.

What if someone saw a blood-soaked man embracing a small girl?

‘This interferes with my life motto of living a completely relaxed life!’

First, I needed to take Luna to a safe place.

‘Even so, there’s nowhere else to go but our small, precious home.’

I wasn’t sure if I should like this, but since the black sphere Luna created had completely annihilated the surroundings, it seemed safe to rule out the possibility of anyone hiding and watching us.

I withdrew my gaze from the surroundings and looked at Luna.

The girl in my arms wore the happiest smile in the world.

“Hehet… Sihyun, Sihyun…!”

*Rubrub.*

Luna was diligently rubbing her face back and forth in my arms, like a cat.

“Sihyun’s scent, I missed it… I’m happy… Hehe.”

“You like it that much?”

“Yes…! I’ll never, never let go now!”

*Rubrubrub.*

Luna continued to rub her face, marking her claim.

‘This ultimate beautiful girl likes me this much, you guys!’

This was the kind of content that would get an explosive reaction if posted on a community forum.

“……I only imagined it for a moment, but all I can picture is the community burning down. It’s really not right for our innocent Luna to be talked about by those guys. Let’s definitely not post it.”

“Sihyun…? What’s a community…?”

“Hahaha, our innocent Luna doesn’t need to know such things her whole life.”

Luna’s golden eyes sparkled as she stared at me, then she squirmed back into my arms.

“I am a little curious, but… I only need to know Sihyun anyway… Hehe.”

*Thump!*

‘Ugh…! Dull Luna with few emotions was good too, but the destructive power of an expressive beautiful girl is… immense.’

Directly experiencing such an active side, I felt a fresh sense of emotion.

Should I say I was overcome with emotion?

‘Our child has truly changed immensely!’ I never thought I’d experience the live-action version of that.

I smiled contentedly and continued to stroke Luna’s hair.

The girl’s silver hair glowed beautifully, contrasting with the red evening sunset.

“You’re pretty. Our Luna.”

“Hehe… Sihyun, am I pretty…?”

“Yes. I think you’re the prettiest in the world?”

“Sihyun too… you’re the coolest in the world! Hehet.”

‘Hmm… well, I did save the princess by fighting for my life, so let’s just go with that for today.’

Luna continuously smiled happily and kept rubbing her face against my chest.

“Now we can always be together… Hehe.”

Although we had only been separated for about a day, considering what had happened during that day, Luna’s active behavior was understandable.

‘Is it that good? Haha.’

Even when she was the emotionless ghost story, Luna had shown tiny reactions here and there,

but her current state, overflowing with emotions, was almost like a cat-like girl.

“Well… if she’s cute, that’s all that matters.”

First, I needed to quickly get out of here with Luna, the cat-like girl.

‘Honestly, it’s a precarious situation. It’s too dangerous for Luna to be in the center of Bosingak.’

With the re-establishment of the narrative, I eliminated greed and even prevented Luna from transforming into destruction.

The underworld had disappeared, and the black sphere had also vanished.

‘Even if ordinary people don’t know, the Guild of Dawn’s Light and the Ghost Story Countermeasures Headquarters will 100% rush to the scene.’

Before that, I absolutely must get out of here.

But… there was one small problem.

No, not small, but a rather big problem.

‘My body hasn’t moved at all since a while ago, can’t I get A/S for this?’

*Pshook.*

*Chwaaak.*

Every time Luna moved her face around in my arms, the wounds on my body opened up and blood gushed out.

“Luna, just let go for a—”

“N-no…!! Let go?! I’ll never let go…!”

—*Hug!*

Luna hugged me even tighter at the words “let go.”

*Chwaaak!*

It must have been an action born from not wanting to be separated from me for even a moment, but the more she did, the more my pain worsened.

‘Khaaah! I, I’m really going to die, die!’

But I couldn’t bring myself to make that sound out loud. The tears welling up in her golden eyes looked like they would gush out again.

‘I didn’t feel any particular pain until just now, why am I suddenly hurting?’

After everything was over and my body relaxed, the secretion of excitatory hormones like adrenaline had stopped.

That meant it was time to pay the price.

Time to repay the accumulated debt of pain!

‘I’m really screwed… If Luna sees me in pain, her condition will become unstable again?!’

I couldn’t cast a shadow over Luna’s face, which was smiling happily with tears of joy.

That was something I could never tolerate—

—*Stagger.*

“Oh, oh dear…?”

My vision seemed to sway for a moment, then my arms and legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

My body didn’t feel like my own.

My arms and legs were falling weakly, like a marionette with severed strings.

The thought of having to endure could no longer even support my body.

“This looks like I’m about to faint…”

I stumbled sideways and collapsed, still holding Luna in my arms.

“S-Sihyun……?! Ah, ah…… N-no……! Don’t……!”

The girl’s sobbing voice was heard.

Was she thinking I was dying?

I was just fainting.

“Luna, I’m not dying, so don’t worry—”

The moment I was about to tell Luna to calm down.

*Ddiring!*

With a familiar notification sound, a Notification Window appeared before my eyes.

[Hwaaaaaaaah——!!! S-Sihyunnnn——! If you die… you can’t dieee——!! Hwaaaah……!!]

Ah.

It was a message, why was it so noisy?

The Notification Window also seemed to think I was dying, and started sobbing with a voice full of sorrow.

“S-Sihyun…! Y-you can’t die…! H-Hwaaaah……!!”

[S-Sihyun-nim…! You promised…! You said you wouldn’t die…! L-liar——!! If you die… if you die…… I’ll kill you—!!! Hwaaaaaah—!!]

‘If I die, you’ll kill me, what kind of nonsense is that.’

Luna on the left, Notification Window on the right.

The voices of the girls sobbing bitterly from both sides felt like they were further worsening my already painful body condition.

‘My head already aches when I’m still, but with surround sound crying from both sides, my head is really throbbing.’

Honestly, I was on the verge of fainting, but I suddenly became wide awake. Should I like this…?

‘It is a relief. If I were to faint in this situation……’

Luna clearly wouldn’t stop crying even with blood on her neck.

And the Notification Window, I couldn’t predict how it would act, which was even scarier.

‘A world where you die… has no meaning…!!’ It might start wildly spamming extraordinary abilities like “re-establishment of the narrative.”

Perhaps the Notification Window could turn into an even bigger time bomb than Luna.

*Shiver.*

‘I can never let such a situation happen. How much did I suffer to save Luna!’

I must not evade this situation by fainting.

From the start, what I hate most are evasive people who cause trouble and then run away!

Then, I began to see the setting sun slowly fading in my eyes.

‘Almost there. Just a little more…!’

After escaping the black sphere, from the moment I saw the sunset evening sky, I had been continuously counting numbers inwardly.

‘Not much left. Now roughly 10… 9… 8…’

What I was counting was the countdown until sunset.

The sky was slowly beginning to darken, and the moon was slowly beginning to shine brightly.

The night when I could use the beginner package was approaching.

‘3… 2… 1……!!’

Finally, the moment the sun completely set and pitch-black darkness descended.

—*Chwaaaak!!*

Pitch-black energy began to swirl and envelop my collapsed body.

‘Damn it, I believed in you! Beginner Package!!’

The black energies surged more violently than usual, as if they had met their master after a very long time, penetrating various parts of my body.

—*Shwoooosh.*

The pitch-black shadow swept over my body, beginning to heal the torn wounds and broken bones.

‘This is exactly what I was waiting for. The self-healing ability in the Beginner Package!’

To be precise, I needed the pitch-black energy that came with the Beginner Package.

The Beginner Package contains the energy of destruction. And the energy of destruction possesses the ability to always maintain the host’s body in optimal condition.

This ability was consistent with how Luna, when transforming into destruction, hurt herself to forget her guilt but kept healing.

‘It’s a bit ironic that I’m supposed to end the story of destruction, but I’m relying on the power of destruction in this situation… but first, I need to survive.’

About 30 seconds after the pitch-black energy enveloped my body.

“Luna, didn’t I tell you? I won’t die even if you kill me. Do you think I’d die and leave our princess? Hahaha.”

I got up perfectly fine and reassured Luna.

“Ah… Hwaaa… S-Sihyun……!”

Transparent tears began to well up in Luna’s golden eyes.

*Padadada!*

The girl, shedding copious tears, rushed into my arms like an arrow.

—*Hug!*

“Khaaah! L-Luna, if you suddenly rush at me like that, my ribs…!”

“Huuuuk…! I, I thought Sihyun was d-dying…! Hwaaaah…!”

Luna began to sob even more bitterly than before.

Seeing her like this, Luna still seemed like an absolute child.

I gently wiped Luna’s tears and met her golden eyes.

“I promised, Luna. I won’t disappear without a word.”

“Uhhng…! D-don’t disappear… Sihyun…!”

*Pat pat.*

I gently stroked Luna’s sobbing shoulders and head. Until the girl stopped crying.

‘By the way, I feel like I forgot someth—’

*Ddiring!*

[Hweeeeeeeh—! Sihyun-nim!! I’m so glad you’re safeeee…!]

Oh right. You were there too, weren’t you?

‘It’s all thanks to the world’s best beginner package you gave me, you know.’

[Hoo… *sniff*… Hehe… Of course! After all, I made it just for Sihyun-nim! *Ahem!*]

The Notification Window, whose mood seemed to improve quickly, displayed a small emoticon I had never seen before.

[☆★☆Ddiring!☆★☆]

[◝(⁰▿⁰)◜]

‘Emoticon…? Surely this isn’t a new feature that appeared after an update……’

[That’s right! Because I need to express my emotions to Sihyun-nim more actively from now on, this was an absolutely necessary function! So I deliberately prioritized updating it! Hehe.]

‘……’

[♡⸜(ˆᗜˆ˵ )⸝♡]

‘Th-that’s right… well done.’

A sigh escaped me naturally, but I couldn’t tackle the situation when I had just barely calmed both the Notification Window and Luna, the two girls.

Even if I did, that would be a problem for later. For now, I’d healed my wounds and appeased Luna and the Notification Window, so I needed to leave here quickly.

‘Notification Window, use Shadow Movement. The location is our house, pulled with a full loan.’

[Yes! Sihyun-nim!]

—*Chwaaaak!*

Pitch-black energy swirled on the floor, beginning to envelop Luna and me.

“Luna, don’t let go, hold on tight. Okay?”

“Yes, Sihyun! I’ll never let go!”

“Let’s go back now. To our house.”

****

After Sihyun left with Luna using Shadow Movement,

“Just now… did you see it, Elissa…?”

“Yes… I saw it clearly too, Unnie.”

Elissa and Victoria arrived at the scene to investigate the suddenly vanished destruction-level ghost story.

“Although I only saw the moment it disappeared… that pitch-black energy and noble silhouette belong to only one person in this world.”

Victoria got down from Elissa’s arms and swept her hand over the spot where Sihyun had disappeared.

“Found him… Phantom.”
