Episode 11. minor deviation (1)
A world unfolded through memory reading.
I was floating as if floating in a dark space. In front of my eyes, my memory was playing in the form of a video, like a screen in a movie theater.
– Who, who are you?
On the screen, Min Seo-eun, a female student with a rather timid impression, was seen.
– Did you pass the entrance exam well? I was just about to take an exam.
The male voice I heard was unmistakably mine.
– Yes, yes. I think I did well… . By the way, are you a student? You must be a bit older.
– Age doesn’t matter. The fact that I met a beauty like you today is important.
I am not me, with my voice, there.
– A beauty, a beauty… .
– If it’s okay, after the exam, shall we go to a nearby cafe and talk? I’ll buy you some rice too.
It seemed like vomiting would come out. It is a voice that sounds like butter, mayonnaise on top, and sesame oil. It was the first time I realized that my voice could be so disgusting.
what’s more absurd.
– Really?
– of course. tell me what you want to eat our cutie.
– lol.
It means that the female student in front of me is falling for that obvious trick.
Was the fabricated past me not satisfied with that alone? The outstretched hand seemed to caress the opponent’s face, and then the arm slipped down.
Opponent did not resist. My hands started to ride down like a snake.
From the cheek to the chin, from the chin to the neck, from the neck to the shoulder.
And on the shoulder… … .
– hey! What are you doing in school right now?
It must have been discovered that someone else’s cry was heard from somewhere. The gun returned to Min Seo-eun’s eyes, who looked a bit blurry.
and.
– Kyaaak!
A fierce slap came flying.
Perhaps it was the aftermath of the beating, but my vision went dark for a moment.
‘What is this… … .’
when you open your eyes again. As I fell to the floor, I saw the back of Min Seo-eun, who was running away in a hurry.
[Quit ‘Memory Reading’.]
I couldn’t stand it any longer and turned off the video. I was ashamed of everything I saw.
“under… .”
I closed my eyes tightly.
The adage that smoke will come out of the chimney when it is not, came to mind.
‘Why did my past change like this perverted person?’
Of course, to touch Min Seo-eun, one of the main heroines of Psychic Age.
A deep sigh came out.
‘For some reason, I feel like this past is just the tip of the iceberg… … .’
What is certain is that he must meet Min Seo-eun and resolve the remnants of the incident. It’s unfair, but I have to stay on good terms with her. I needed to ask for forgiveness somehow.
“Mmm.”
I felt a bit dizzy.
Memory reading consumed more mental power than expected. It was almost the same as the consumption of Mental Acceleration. If you use it up here, you won’t have the mental strength to use when training.
I checked the next heaven.
＜Telepathy＞
:: Convey your thoughts to the other person in your head.
As you can infer from the name, it was the telepath everyone knew. The key is, of course, the effective distance and activation conditions.
Tring!
“huh?”
While thinking about how to use telepathy, I heard a text message and took out my cell phone.
[Is this Kim Do-yoon’s cell phone?]
It was a text from Pyo Yu-rim.
Why did you send me this text message? Could it be that I suspected that it was my cell phone and that the number I gave you might belong to someone else?
＜Right. that’s my number If in doubt, call
No reply came back.
‘what. I just wanted to check, is this?’
He was a very cool guy.
***
“… … .”
A small cell phone light soothes the darkness in the room. Pyo Yu-rim was hesitantly wiggling his fingers.
＜What are you doing?＞
＜I have a question.＞
＜Are you sleeping?＞
Repeatedly writing insignificant messages and then quickly deleting them.
I received Doyoon Kim’s number. It was good so far, but I was afraid for some reason when I tried to contact him.
＜Is this Kim Do-yoon’s cell phone?＞
Pyo Yu-rim shook his head.
‘no. This is even weirder.’
I wanted to send a text carefully, but it didn’t work out the way I wanted.
Tok.
“Wow!”
A short scream escaped from Pyo Yu-rim’s mouth. I stopped deleting it and pressed the send button.
＜Right. that’s my number If in doubt, call
A reply came back soon, but Pyo Yu-rim couldn’t muster up the courage to reply.
‘Why am I doing this… .’
I can’t even send a single text message. She wondered why.
“ah.”
The answer came out easier than I thought.
I don’t want to be hated. Fear of being far from the only person you can remember.
in a quiet room. There was more heat than usual in the whispering sound of Pyoyurim’s breathing.
‘are you okay. More than this. I’ll meet you in person next time and say that I sent it wrong.’
Kim Do-yoon was the type to be wary of the approach of others. That attitude made Pyoyu-rim more cautious, and on the other hand, more obsessed with him.
‘right. Come to think of it.’
When I thought about text messages, I naturally remembered that there were text messages that I hadn’t checked yet. I belatedly opened it to see what it was.
“ah.”
Special class for the high scorers in the last joint class. It was a detailed notice about the ‘special field practice’ to be held a few days later.
Originally, I had no intention of going.
Pyoyu-rim did not feel any interest in playing with people. According to the announcement, it was not necessary to participate, so there was no reason to go.
Originally, I would have ignored it like that.
[Pyoyurim. Don’t try to be friendly with people.]
[Because the next day will be completely strangers anyway.]
It reminds me of the message Pyo Yu-rim left in the past that I recorded on the tablet.
[It’s useless to write a hundred days on the tablet.]
[Anyway, you won’t realize how close you were to that person.]
It was a young piece of advice reserved for future wandering forests.
[You only hurt those who care about you.]
[You, too, feel burdened by favors from people you don’t even feel close to.]
The present Pyo Yu-rim shook his head as if to answer the phrase.
‘Things have changed now.’
I was in a position to understand that I was close with someone in the form of memories, not words written on a tablet.
So it was time to change.
No, I wanted to change.
‘I don’t like situations where I have to understand things in the form of letters like this.’
I want to meet him some more.
I want to meet and talk.
It was the moment when Pyo Yu-rim’s eyes had a determined will.
***
I have to meet Min Seo-eun.
‘But going blindly to meet is not a very good choice.’
While the major professor taught the class with a languid voice, I stared blankly at the blackboard and was lost in thought.
She has already warned me once. I’ll pass quietly, so don’t pretend to know anymore. Unfortunately, I wasn’t in a position to do that.
‘If I had been a meteor, I wouldn’t have had to worry about this.’
Yoo Seong-eun is Min Seo-eun’s childhood friend. Furthermore, there was even a setting that Min Seo-eun had a crush on her.
Psychic Age is an RPG-based girl dating simulation genre game. What this means is that it is a game where the main goal is to develop a protagonist like an RPG, but the main goal is to capture a beautiful girl.
As such, the main episodes of Psychic Age usually focus on the heroine’s narrative. Depending on which heroine you target and how much you like it, the story diverges.
even.
‘There was a case where the heroine died and the game was over if I didn’t get a good impression.’
How about in real life?
Will the game over message suddenly appear in front of your eyes when one heroine dies? Will there be a bad situation where such a phrase appears and then returns to the save point that was automatically saved?
‘Somehow I don’t think so.’
Maybe things will go the way they are. With the heroine dead, the story of the Psychic Age I knew would be completely twisted, and I would no longer be able to prepare for the future.
The worries were repeated.
‘If I went to see him right away, I’d probably only get a crush on him.’
When you want to somehow get closer to someone you’ve been estranged from. I, as it happens, knew very well how to deal with this situation.
Who am I?
He is a former psychological counselor.
‘Although he is a third-rate psychological counselor who made a painful mistake from the first fight… … .’
It’s different now.
I wanted to show that I have changed.
Losing confidence, not to anyone else but to myself.
“… … more. Class is over.”
drooling.
The boring class is over.
I pulled my chair and immediately got up from my seat. First of all, it was my intention to head toward the first class where Min Seo-eun belongs.
“hey… .”
As I was about to turn out of the classroom, someone pulled me by the collar.
It was Pyo Yu-rim, who had been absent consecutively after the joint class, and returned to school today.
“why?”
“When I took the written test last time… … . I think you are doing well in your studies. Could you teach me something when you have time?”
It’s a fairly hesitant speech. what about the eyes again? trembling well
Coincidentally, I know this type of person well. Those who were afraid of being rejected used to look like this.
It was a really painful situation. You shouldn’t be too friendly, and you shouldn’t be too stimulating.
“I’ll think about it. I don’t know if I’ll be able to afford it.”
The best I could do was kill time.
“yes.”
Am I just glad that I didn’t get rejected? I could see that Pyo Yu-rim’s expression brightened slightly.
‘At times like this, I feel resentful of myself for being unnecessarily quick-witted.’
In the end, I ran out of the classroom as if my conscience was pricked and I ran away.
“ha.”
After ventilating the dirty feeling with a big sigh, I trudged to the next half.
It was not too late to go to the front of the first half.
but.
‘Has he already left?’
When I looked inside Class 1, Min Seo-eun was nowhere to be seen. It seemed that he had left the classroom first while talking with Pyo Yu-rim for a while.
Still, I had a rough idea of where it was headed.
She always has a destination during lunchtime and after-school activities.
The professor in charge of Class 1 of the first year. There is a flower bed that Seongmi Cha is cultivating with the permission of Signal. It’s in the backyard of the 1st year building, and I probably go there whenever I have time.
‘Because she likes flowers.’
From nob le mt l. com
Just as expected.
Heading to the backyard of the 1st year building, I was able to find Min Seo-eun as I expected.
“Seo, Seo Eun-ah… … . Do you remember me?”
The problem was that she wasn’t alone.
There was a male student with Min Seo-eun under a tall zelkova tree next to a flower bed with colorful flowers.
“Excuse me, but who are you?”
“It’s me. Um, in the first year of high school, we were in the same class, right? Shihyuk Bang! I do not remember?”
“ah… . yes, it’s you So why are you here?”
“Actually you… … I came.”
A weak, yet hesitant voice. It was a hesitant gesture that did not suit his generous size. Coincidentally, I knew that male student well.
‘It must have been the villain that appeared in the second main episode, right?’
It wasn’t a particularly significant villain.
As you can see in the original work, the person who flirted with Min Seo-eun. They were just extras who quickly left after getting scolded by Yooseong, the main character of the original.
‘I was a consumed person as a directing to show that Min Seo-eun has a crush on Yoo-seong.’
It showed up sooner than expected. In other words, it was the sound that the future I knew had changed.
“Did you come to see me? what brings you here?”
“If you are dating someone… . there is? Or someone you like?”
I didn’t even have to think about what the reason was. It is because Min Seo-eun’s childhood friend, Yu-seong, whom she had a crush on since childhood, disappeared.
“… … there is.”
“What, what?”
“There is. person I like. We decided to meet here soon.”
It seemed that Min Seo-eun had noticed that atmosphere.
‘It must be strange that he suddenly appears and asks if there is someone he likes, but he doesn’t notice.’
It would be an act of rejecting a confession that will fly in the near future.
“lie… .”
“huh?”
“You don’t like anyone! Do you know that there is no I’ve researched everything! I haven’t seen you go around with a guy since high school!”
“Uh, what is that… … .”
Unfortunately, the opponent was not good.
“Why are you lying? If you don’t like it, you can just say no!”
“sorry. Something urgent happened… … Wow!”
“Where are you going! People are talking!”
As Min Seo-eun tried to run away, Bang Shi-hyeok grabbed her wrist roughly.
“Let go of that hand.”
It was about that that I came out.
Min Seo-eun and Bang Si-hyuk’s eyes flew toward me at the same time.
‘In the original work, if I appeared like this, Bang Shi-hyeok would get scared and run away, right?’
However, my expectations were spectacularly wrong.
“ah… . okay. Nice to meet you.”
“huh?”
“You were the boyfriend I was waiting for. Yeah, I thought it was you somehow.”
When he saw me, for some reason he started to fight. He even looked like he knew me.
“You know me?”
“The Seo Eun I know wasn’t like this… … . I’ve heard all the rumors about you Did you hypnotize Seo Eun? That’s why it turned out like this!”
“what?”
“Bring Seo Eun back to normal!!!”
Before I could react, Bang Shi-hyeok suddenly rushed at me and threw a ham fist at me.
but.
Quaang!
Its power could never be compared to something like ham.
Even though I blocked the fist, my body floated up into the sky as if I had been hit by a dump truck.
‘This guy, why are you so serious about being an extra?!’
Alarm bells started ringing in my head.
