'Today marks exactly one year I have live here. Many things had happened in a year. Like for example the limits of my IBM. My IBM can manifest for only 7 to 15 minutes or 20 minutes on a good day. My IBM also has a will on his own. After knowing this, I let him do as he pleases everyday so that he don't feel like a caged beast. He is quite cute when he sat beside me while I play Mario on my TV. Anyway, I can only manifest him twice a day. I feel like I can call him out more often in the future if I train him.'
I recall those memories with a nostalgic smile even though it's only been a year.Now I am playing my psp in a waiting room. You might be wondering why am I in a waiting room right? I am actually in the top 3 cadets who scored the highest before graduates 'Agent Military Academy'. I am not going all out yet of course. It is a bit hard adjusting my strength to get the fourth place. But I guess it is what it is.
"Tachibana Shou, please prepare yourself for the entrance ceremony."
A mature voice broke my concentration which causes me to lose my first place in the racing game I am playing. What a bummer. I turn off the psp then stand up and stretch a bit because I have been laying down on the couch for an hour straight. After a light stretching I put my psp into my pants pocket. The voice belongs to a middle aged lady who is quite mid in my opinion.
"Are you ready Tachibana Shou? The final event will start in 10 minutes. I advice you to make haste to the hallway."
The lady asked me with a calm tone while narrowing her eyes slightly probably because of how lax I am. What can I say, I am a carefree guy.
"Sure thing~"
I answered her with a relaxed tone and my signature carefree smile. Damn my personality is becoming more and more like Nagumo. The lady can only frown slightly after hearing my lax answer then she walk away. Is it that time of the month? How grumpy. I then start to walk out of the waiting room with a carefree whistle. After a few seconds walking down the hallway I found two guy each leaning against the wall while one is calm and composed and the other one is looking at the audience with a nervous face.
The one who was calm like the sea is of course Shin Jonghak while the nervous wreck is Kim Suho. Quite a duo we have here. As if hearing my loud flip flops hitting the floor the both of them look at me at the same time. With my signature carefree smile I greet them with a laid back tone.
"Hey there, second place and first place. Nice to meet you both. I am Tachibana Shou."
Shin Jonghak ignore my greetings as he looks towards the audience again. Probably because he saw me as nothing more than a lowly being who is inferior to him. It kind of hurt when your greetings get ignored. Kim Suho on the other hand is such an angel. He approach me and hold out his hand with a dazzling smile
"Hi, I am Kim Suho nice to meet you too Tachibana."
What a polite young gentleman! He is the epitome of those hero in isekai genre. Of course, I can't let such person handshake hanging as I shake his hand with a smile. Then the loud voice of the announcer broke our moment of getting to know eachother.
"NOW FOR THE FINAL EVENT WE WILL ANNOUNCE THE TOP 3 GRADUATES!"

(KIM HAJIN POV)
"NOW FOR THE FINAL EVENT WE WILL ANNOUNCE THE TOP 3 GRADUATES!"
The announcer voice boom throughout the arena. I can only look around cluelessly as I just spawn in. I remember going to sleep then I wake up here? What in the actual hell is going on here!?
"FROM HERO ASSOCIATION MILITARY ACADEMY SEOUL BRANCH GRADUATION CLASS OF 2024! RANKING NUMBER 1! KIM SUHO!"
Shit.
I have transmigrate into my own novel that was called 'The Returnee Hero'.Am I dreaming? I then pinched my own forearm hoping that this is just a lucid dream at most. But it hurts. Ouch. Did I get prank? That is unlikely since this will take too much time to prepare.
I can see Kim Suho walking towards the podium with a stiffened face as if he was nervous. As Kim Suho stop in front of the podium stand. The announcer loud voice then rang throughout the auditorium continue Kim Suho future rival
"FROM THE SAME 'AGENT MILITARY ACADEMY' SEOUL BRANCH! RANKING NUMBER 2! FROM CLASS 2024 SHIN JONGHAK!"
Shit
This just makes it more believable that I have transmigrate into my own novel. Shin Jonghak face gets shown at a large screen that was on the middle of the auditorium. I am too caught up thinking my own circumstances that I forgot to look at both of my main characters I have created.
Kim Suho have a brown hair and a gentle atmosphere around him. Truly heroic atmosphere he has. Shin Jonghak on the other hand is a stark contrast to Kim Suho. He is the typical spoiled young master. He has a white hair and a smug grin etched on his face. Probably eating the audience admiration for him. What a perfect main characters duo I have done. Who would've thought that their god is sitting with them in the same auditorium. Now since I am sure that I have transmigrate into my own novel the third place will probably be Chae Nayun. As if hearing my prediction, the announcer announce the last person who scored in the top 3.
"ALSO FROM THE SAME 'AGENT MILITARY ACADEMY' THAT IS SEOUL BRANCH! RANKING NUMBER 3! TACHIBANA SHOU!"
After hearing that I unconsciously stood up. Then I saw a Japanese looking guy who have a medium length black hair and a carefree smile and he is wearing a FREAKING flip flops!? How is he able to contend with Shin Jonghak and Kim Suho!?
"Chundong- Chan~? What's wrong?"
A voice broke me out of my stupor then I look at him only to be greeted by a talking pig? No, just a fatty. I look at his name tag that wrote Kim Ho-Sup. There is a lot of characters in my novel but every named character has it's own role be it big or small. I then look towards the big screen who is currently showing me. I don't have a face! I have a question mark on my face! I then slumped down back to my chair.
"I don't know..."
Replying dryly to the fatty. I am trying to sort out my thoughts. Chundong? Who the fuck is this guy!? Shouldn't I be one of the two that was on the podium!? I don't even remember writing this guy! I am just an extra in my own fucking novel! No, I am just a speck of dust here. Damn it.

A/N: I feel like I did Hajin pov kind of wrong. Sure I skip where he used his hearing gifts and the guild fighting for Kim Suho since I felt like it is useless and don't contribute anything to the chapter. I hope you can give me your piece of mind on my story.
