Interlude - Ability Unlocked
‘Suna must have waited a long time.’
I checked the time and saw that 15 minutes had passed since recess ended..
The actual encounter with the monster lasted only about 20 minutes..
I had the illusion that we had been fighting for a while, but in reality it wasn't that long..
As my vision and hearing were blocked, my other senses became more sensitive, so even 20 minutes felt like a very long time..
A wall appeared after walking a bit..
As I rode over, I saw Sun-ah trembling..
“Seonya, I waited. I'm sorry-”
“who is this?”
Suna asks me with a white face..
“Who am I to curse at you so harshly?……?”
“huh?”
Suna is shaking and scared.
I see.
Even though it was next to a wall, it seemed like the sound could be heard all the way up here..
I couldn't hear it because I had my hearing blocked, but did she say something?.
“He was just a crazy person. are you okay. I just kicked you out.”
“…I think so. It was strange... Smiling… I swore really hard... about you……
“huh. that's right. I was the first person to see it.”
Actually, I didn't hear it, but answer appropriately.
gave it.
‘…I think it's okay to just tell the truth at this level.?’
I couldn't think of a good excuse to say I was secretly doing something alone while making Suna wait here, but I thought I could have just told her if she was listening..
Of course, only to the extent that is realistically acceptable..
“Seon-ya, do you remember the notice on the school notice yesterday warning you to be careful of smiling women??”
«Ugh e ,,
“Maybe it wasn't a misprint
I think it was real. This morning during recess, I happened to look out the window and saw a lady with a very strange smile walking around behind the school wall holding a box cutter..”
Suna looks at me with a worried face.
“So I thought it looked suspicious, so I went to check it out..”
“Why do something so dangerous... Just tell the teacher……
“I know. haha.”
I smiled sheepishly and scratched my head..
“I just assumed it would be like that. right? Still, I kicked you out, so I won't be able to come near school anymore..”
“…I went?”
“Yes, I went.”
Suna's face turns red..
And he asked while avoiding my gaze and looking to the side..
“…I'm not hurt?”
“are you okay. I'm fine.”
I waved my arms and made a joking gesture indicating that I was fine..
Suna's expression, which had always been serious, suddenly changed.
Only then does he relax a little and soon starts giggling..
“…fool.”
“ha ha ha.”
“brave fool……
Although I felt good, I couldn't help but laugh because I was embarrassed..
“great job.”
“Haha, no. what.”
You're brave! I had a hard time!
I tricked Suna, who knew nothing, and made her stand guard behind her.!
I felt good, embarrassed, and embarrassed, but.
‘···Hehe.’
I felt proud as all the stress I had received from the day was relieved by the acknowledgment of me..
Yes.
I'm proud.
“thank you. And actually, because you were with me, I……
Suna looks at me with a smile on her face..
“···If anything dangerous happens to me, you can tell people around you. That's why I was able to check what it was with peace of mind..”
Instead of answering, I giggle..
“By the way, it's already been a while since class started, what should we do??”
At those words, Seon-ah suddenly burst out laughing and started laughing out loud..
“Ahaha, ahaha.”
A really pleasant laugh, different from the timid giggles you've had up until now..
“Why~ why are you smiling!”
“Ahaha, hahahaha. just… We dinged again. Ahahaha.”
Seeing Suna shaking her back and smiling made me feel better and laughed along with her..
“That's right, kekekekekekeke..”
We patted each other on the shoulder and laughed playfully for a while before returning to the main building..
Somehow, I feel like we've become closer than before..
* * *
“Where have you two been? This time, the homeroom teacher just threw a printed material at everyone to think of a club to join, and they immediately left. They were really helpless..”
Kyungwon spoke to us as we entered the classroom in a reprimanding tone..
“Well, it just so happened that.”
Fortunately, I guess there were no classes this time..
Is it because it's still the first day and the teachers are busy adjusting schedules?.
In the name of self-study, I see children in my class chatting with new friends or playing cell phone games..
When I found my seat and went into the partition by the window, I saw Deok-Hoon sitting next to me, watching Annie, as expected..
‘Think about a club you want to join.?’
While thinking about Gyeongwon's words, I looked at the desk and, sure enough, there was a piece of paper lying there..
It was a printed material with a list of clubs at our school and introductions..
The moment I put my head up to read it!
Paat-
The message window blocked my eyes..
『Do you have a list of clubs at school?
I looked around, but there wasn't a club I liked. Now that you've come to this, you've decided to create your own club..』
[I received the quest.]
〈Quest - Tutorial〉
Create a ghost story club.
O Reward: Unlock club management menu, 10 ghost story points, club room.
“What, what?”
A quest window suddenly appears before my eyes..
I was dumbfounded..
I haven't read it yet, but who
I decided that there was no club that I wanted.…….
‘I'm shocked..’
Aside from the strange message that appears during the tutorial, this system seems to progress the story quite arbitrarily..
First, I sat down and looked through the printed material..
This school seems to provide a lot of support for club activities, and the first explanation was that every Friday afternoon was not held at all and was designated as club specialization time..
Also, there is no club to belong to.
In order to prevent playing during class time, a rule was also announced that all students must participate in 'one person per club activity'..
If you look at the bottom of the list of clubs and the introduction, there is a space to write your name and the name of the club you want to apply for..
‘Should I write it here and submit it?.’
After thinking for a moment, my homeroom teacher suddenly opened the classroom door and came in smiling brightly..
“It's almost lunch time. Have you all decided on the club you want? I've given you enough time, so I'll take it now.
It is~”
‘Bur, already?’
“Let the students in the back row of each division stand up and collect the items.~”
shit.
Since I only checked the printout a little while ago, I couldn't even look at it properly..
Thinking that there was nothing I could do, I hastily wrote down the name “Ghost Story Club” on the application form as it appeared in the quest window and submitted it..
And soon the bell rang, signaling lunch time..
Mixing in with the class, I followed the passage connected to the main building to the cafeteria.
As I moved, I saw teachers giving guidance..
I heard that at this school, each floor has a separate passageway connected to the cafeteria to avoid overcrowding, but seeing as there were no seniors in sight, it seemed like they were moving to a passageway on another floor..
“New students can eat on the first floor of the cafeteria building. 2nd year students are on the 2nd floor, 3rd year students are on the 3rd floor~”
I followed those words and went inside, and I saw the inside of an ordinary cafeteria that didn't look like anything special..
A space where approximately 300 students, an entire grade, can sit..
Tables and chairs lined up all over the place..
After looking at it for a while, I stood in line, got a tray, and filled it with rice and side dishes..
‘Stir-fried vegetable sausage, looks delicious.’
Also called Yaso for short, it is a popular menu item everywhere..
When I saw the sausage, I suddenly felt very hungry..
Since I was killed by a smiling woman and time was turned back twice, I was now eating four hours later than everyone else..
Of course, when time goes back, the physical image
It's clear that my attitude is going back, so the actual hunger may be similar, but I still felt a mental hunger that made my eyes roll back when I saw the food..
Murmur-
300As there were about 100 students gathered on one floor to eat, Seon-ah and Gyeong-won were lost in the crowd..
Some freshmen went out of their way to make room to eat with their friends, but I didn't think there was anything to make a fuss about, so I decided to just sit in a suitable place and eat..
As I filled the tray with food and moved around, I looked around slowly and saw an empty seat, and Deokhoon was sitting next to it..
This guy, I guess it's fate, but he keeps becoming especially entangled with me..
‘Well, it's better than eating among students you don't know at all..’
Deokhoon wearing earphones while eating.
I sat next to him and quietly listened to the sound coming out of the earphones, and I saw the girl babbling frantically in Japanese.
Looks like it's an anime song.
After eating like that, I went back to the classroom and sat down..
Approximately 30 minutes to spare until lunch time ends..
During that time, I decided to use the ghost story points I had earned earlier..
‘main screen.’

‘ Hmm.’
Before I knew it, I had accumulated 105 points..

‘Huh? causality. This is also up. What a shame this is really?’
Will I find out someday?.

I clicked on the first of the boxes marked ‘None’.

[Currently the first ability is empty. You can unlock abilities by using 100 points.]
[Ability unlocked (100) / Go back]
‘100 It costs points?’
I felt dizzy.
I don't know when I'll regret using it, but anyway, this is what I got after dying several times..
I don't know what other uses it has, but the thought of using it all up at once makes me bleed..
‘Oh my, what a waste..’
Come to think of it, even in mobile games, during tutorials, they give you an expensive cash item and force you to use it..
Anyway, since I had to use it anyway, I decided not to feel any regret and just poured it out, so I clicked on the screen..
Paat-
[Consume 100 Ghost Story Points to unlock the first ability.]
Then, a cheerful melody made of 16-bit mechanical sounds rang out, and several words began to flash by in the first column..
☆ Tiding ding, tiding ding~♬
‘···What is this, is it really random??’
A random drawing system also called gacha in mobile games..
Right now, before my eyes, words with various abilities written on them are rushing back and forth like numbers on a roulette machine..

‘It's not like I'm running fast……
From the very beginning, you should never rely on such seemingly inferior abilities..
Anyway, I just prayed earnestly that I would get good powers..

“Wow!!”
I caught something that looked really good..
S-class special ability!
I'm concerned that it's a consumable skill, but even taking that into account, being S-rank means it's really good.!
‘You're lucky..’
I spent the rest of the afternoon nodding with satisfaction..
