MTLNOVEL Chapter 110 - How to Welcome the New Semester (7)
What’s the use of cursing the people around me?
I quietly slapped the comment.
Let’s read the next one.
While I was listening to the conversation of the group, the bell rang.
Bam—!
Yggdrasil kicked the door.
I thought she would certainly show up alone like usual, yet contrary to my expectations, she brought along a child I’d never seen before. He looked like a mermaid half-breed, but he looked quite cute.
What is it? According to the information I got from the game, there weren’t any students who would be in Class A at this time, though?
…No.
This is reality.
There are many variables.
In particular, the fact that I, the possessed person, and the reincarnated person Nahyun were added to this game must have had a big impact.
Since it was so different from the game, it was understandable that an unknown character would appear.
Like the fox-beast half-breed man I saw at Balder’s house.
“A new student, is it because of the lucky letter?”
At that moment, the words of a student in the same class who was talking excitedly rang in my ears.
‘Lucky Letter’.
It was an event that occurred randomly in the game. It seems to have occurred in this world.
A malicious letter that benefits most receivers but brings misfortune to those who get it wrong.
This isn’t good.
Let’s warn the group later.
…Huh? Lucky Letter Event?
At that moment, the strange letter that Kang Yoo received from Zion today flashed through my mind.
If it was an event that occurred randomly in the game, it was impossible for me, who only knew about it through novels, to know.
I needed to subtly mention it when Na Yuhan gave us the information, in case it was something bad or dangerous.
I kept the keyword ‘Lucky Letter’ in a corner of my mind and read the rest.
“Everyone, be quiet! As you might have guessed, There is a transfer student! Younger than you!”
“My name is Kangyoo! I’m fourteen! Please take care of me!”
I looked through the specs while Yggdrasil was introducing the new kid named Kangyoo.
And I was shocked.

Shin Haewoon’s superior compatibility?
No, this is… the ultimate superior compatibility.
Where on earth did this monster suddenly pop up? I need to contact Nika and ask her for information about this guy—
Then the transfer student strode towards me.
“Huh?”
What?
Could he be an unexpected enemy? I was on high alert.
However what came out of his mouth was somewhat unexpected.
“Brother. Give me this seat.”
“What?”
“Give me this seat.”
…?
I was confused.

ㅇㅇ
What the heck? What’s going on?
ㅇㅇ
The author lacks foreshadowing.
ㅇㅇ
F*ck, another male character?
ㅇㅇ
Giving away heroines, is this j*rk author in their right mind?
ㅇㅇ
Reverse harem is delicious
>ㅇㅇ
?
What’s the last one?
Anyway, the readers really react immediately. I frowned at the comments section where people were cursing my younger brother.
Kids might act out a bit!!!!!
If only I had my way, I could point a gun at the people who were cursing Kangyoo.
No, hold back.
There’s nothing I can do to those beings.
I gritted my teeth and read the next part.
While I was flustered, Yggdrasil came over and spoke.
“Hmm! Now that I think about it, that would be good! Since Nahyun is close with Kangyoo, it would be good to help him adjust to the Academy!”
“Right?”
“But this is originally Yuhan’s seat, right? I’ll sit in the empty seat near the door with Kangyoo.”
“Alright!”
So they know each other?
Then, is this an irregular because of Nahyun? Irregulars are irregulars, but because that irregular was sitting right next to Nahyun, I couldn’t concentrate on the class at all.
In the end, as soon as class ended, I ran towards her.
“Who is he?”
“He’s my little brother.”
Little brother? Nahyun was a half-mermaid?
So that’s why she was so angelic in the sea,
“I live in an orphanage now, and Kangyoo is the little brother I met there.”
At that moment, I heard Nahyun’s answer.
Suddenly, I remembered something that happened before.
Back when I used to think of this world as a game.
When I tried to stop Nahyun from donating money to an orphanage.
So this is what it meant to be indebted to someone…
I felt ashamed of myself for looking at Nahyun like I was looking at someone clueless who did something stupid at that time.

ㅇㅇ
Ah heck it’s her little brother
ㅇㅇ
It would have been nice if it was a little sister tho, siblings harem
> ㅇㅇ
Isn’t she actually dressed up as a man? She’s cute even though she’s a man.
> ㅇㅇ
Oh
ㅇㅇ
I think the reason she said she’d donate before was because she was from an orphanage
> ㅇㅇ
It’s a bit much to have so many dependants tho
> ㅇㅇ
? Haha are you a loser?
The reactions that got angry when I donated to the orphanage in the past, like ‘frustrating’ and ‘stupid’, seemed to have improved to the point that it’s ‘understandable’ as the background of the orphanage was unraveled.
The burning public opinion about Kangyoo seemed to have calmed down a bit when it was revealed that he was my little sister.
Thank goodness.
While I was lost in thought, Nahyun called me aside.
I followed her lead, heading to a secluded place.
Nahyun smiled briefly and then spoke to me with a serious expression.
“What’s wrong?”
“You told me before, the key. The reason you want to take this key, is it because you’re afraid I’ll be in danger?”
“That’s right. Because I don’t know what variables there might be—”
“But if this key is really a dangerous item, then not only me, but also you could be in danger if you carry it on your own. I don’t like that.”
When I heard those words, a part of my heart felt warm.
You worry about me and think about me like this.
I like you because I’m so grateful for that.
I trust you.
“That is…”
“Yuhan. I want to carry your weight together. So trust me. If it gets really dangerous, then let’s think about it together. That’s what we’re called friends!”
“…Yeah. I’ll trust you.”
I see you smiling at my answer.
That’s why I like seeing you smiling too.
“But if something goes wrong, you have to tell everyone at any time. It’s a promise.”
“Of course!”
My dear comrade.
The most trustworthy person from another world like me.
I’m not alone.
For some reason, something seemed to surge up inside me.
At that moment, the ground shook.
BOOOOM—!!!
She hugged me as I lost my balance and held on.
I stiffened my body as I felt a soft sensation like last time.
While I was assessing the situation for a moment, Park Yoola’s voice boomed from the speaker.
<Miss Nahyun! Please look! My collaboration with Kim Kangha!>
Drrrrr—
The ground shook again.
Nahyun hugged me even tighter, worried that I might fall.
For some reason, my face kept getting hotter.
But…
“But Kim Kangha and Park Yoola already met…?”
In the game, they must have met at least after the start of the second semester, though?
In addition, there was a description that Kim Kangha was stuck at her teacher’s house all vacation and didn’t meet anyone.
There’s no way she could have met Park Yul-ah unless someone introduced him to her, though?
…Thinking back to when she called Nahyun’s name earlier, was it because of Nahyun?
Because of that, the disaster happened…
“Sister!”
While I was thinking about something else to avoid thinking about Nahyun’s scent reaching me as much as possible, I heard Kangyoo’s voice.
The group that should have been in the class came here so quickly.
It was a remote place, so did they do some kind of location tracking?
However, the eyes of Kangyoo, who was coming our way, were unusual.
He whispered to me softly, his eyes devoid of light, so to speak, dead.
“What are you doing, Brother?”
He’s so jealous.
I judged that after seeing him rushing toward Nahyun.
< Comment
ㅇㅇ
What is it, siscon?
ㅇㅇ
Living with your in-laws is tough…
Ah, my kid might be a little obsessed with me, why are you calling that a siscon?
I grumbled and lightly skimmed through the remaining parts. I think the key topic ended here.
After that, there wasn’t anything particularly important, so I lightly skimmed through it and read on.
Nahyun carried me like a princess.
“Let’s go, Yuhan!”
“Sister?!”
“Should I carry him instead?”
Kangyoo’s gaze was sharp.
And Park Siwoo, you screw off.
There’s no such thing as a man being held like a princess.

ㅇㅇ
But did her strength stat increase? It’s still F tho
> ㅇㅇ
Idk but her skills and items did increase here and there, right? Her mana also increased.
> ㅇㅇ
Since she’s a sniper, I don’t think her physical strength will increase?
ㅇㅇ
Ah, weakness is our mc’s identity
> ㅇㅇ
He doesn’t need that kind of identity…
The kid is weak.
I concluded calmly and looked through the following.
“Um… If she likes him, then there’s nothing I can do, but he has to be a cool person! He has to be stronger than me!”
“Does he have to be strong?”
“Yeah! That way he won’t be a burden to Sister!”
Choi Soojung, who suddenly asked Kangyoo a question, snickered and slapped me on the back.
“Hmm, hmm. That’s right~ You should cheer up, Junior! I’ll cheer you on!”
“W-What are you cheering for?”
“Don’t you know?”
What?

Insensitive…

Dumb…

Dumbass…
ㅇㅇ
F*cking dumbass…

The standard is tough;
Other than that… Maybe because I took the main heroine position, everyone was linking Na Yuhan and me.
Na Yuhan was genuinely bewildered, yet the comments all seemed to be very disappointed.
Well, it would be better for you to stop investing in stocks that would never work out, right?
After that, it was just a brief story about after-school sparring.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t confirm in the part where I appeared whether I was mentioned when Lee Hana and Na Yuhan talked separately.
Next, let’s check out the Story Fragment I acquired this time.
I opened the story fragment window.
[Currently collected Story Fragment: 10]
– Academy’s Genius Commander: 4
– ???? ??? ???? ?? (Locked): 6
I pressed the red jewel, the fragment of the ‘Academy’s Genius Commander’ I acquired this time, with my fingertips.
Then, a video unfolded like before.
In front of a deserted vending machine.
Na Yuhan said as she put her device into the vending machine and paid for it.
“You heard about the deal from Senior Soojung, right?”
“Yeah. She said you would help me completely remove the curse on me.”
“Yes. The person who will remove it will come to the Academy soon.”
As soon as she heard that, Lee Hana said in surprise.
“Is there really someone who can remove this curse?”
“Yes. That fox I had a hard time getting.”
Na Yuhan looked back at Lee Hana and smirked. It was a confident smile.
“Senior’s curse is different from other normal curses. You know that, right?”
“I know. Those who cursed me are something special.”
“Right. Can I sit down for a moment?”
“Yeah.”
The two sat down on the bench near the vending machine.
Na Yuhan poured a cola and said.
“Your curse can’t be lifted with normal items. All you can do is use the ice attribute magic from an item or magic stone to suppress the curse yourself. I’m sure you’ve felt that, too.”
“Yeah. No lifting items or lifting methods worked on me. At least when I had the Cheonho’s tail hair trinket I received before, the lifting effect was applied temporarily.”
“The reason you can be lifted now that you have that item is probably because it’s part of the existence of ‘Cheonho’, which has special powers… Let’s leave that aside.”
Na Yuhan cleared his throat with a loud noise and continued.
“The ‘Gemini’, who cursed Senior, was created by the one who built the tower, Cheonho. There is a clan in Germany who worships Cheonho, deeply studies Cheonho, and tries to follow in his footsteps.”
“The one who built the tower… .”
“Yes. Their name is ‘Balder.’ Since Balder is thoroughly studying Cheonho, they’re also studying ‘Gemini’ created by Cheonho as an extension of that. So there is some data on your curse. The method of undoing it has also been studied.”
“Is one of those people coming?”
“Yes… I’m sure they can. That’s why…”
Na Yuhan continued speaking confidently, yet hesitated at the end as if he didn’t know what to say.
Lee Hana smiled at Na Yuhan.
“I trust you. I’ll wait… Thanks.”
“…Yes.”
Na Yuhan turned his head and avoided her gaze, feeling embarrassed by Lee Hana’s transparently straight blue eyes staring at him.
They’re finally doing it.
I felt that one thing that had been weighing on my heart, perhaps different from the novel, had disappeared.
Cheonho’s tail hair trinket, which was supposed to remove all abnormal conditions with just a touch, couldn’t completely remove Lee Hana’s curse.
How pitiful had I felt for her, who could only use her full power if she always had the trinket with her?
Thank goodness. I smiled slightly.
The person who’s coming to do it is probably Nika Balder, that girl.
So there won’t be any problems with doing it.
If there are any problems, I’ll use meta point to make them disappear.
Lee Hana is already precious to me.
“Whew…”
I checked all the appearance parts and the Story Fragment, and when I was relieved that everything seemed fine, a message arrived on my device.
[Do you have time?]
[I have something I want to say.]
It was a call from Na Yuhan.
