My name is Hei-Ran Soo, or atleast thats what it used to be-
I was just your normal 27 year old librarian, nothing unique or intresting about me, all exept for the ridiculous amount of books I've read in my life.
Yet for some reason- when I was rearranging books in the library after having finished reading a novel I had found, I fell off the latter and the bookcase followed soon after me-
I can only gues I died-
To somehow be transmigrated in the same novel I had just finished reading-
Talk about a cliche moment-
Anyways- I was now Jae-he Sung
The useless mafia boss of the Kongnamul group, who only played games and stayed in her room all day and night long.
The only reason as to why she was the mafia boss, was because of her father-
Her father was the previous mafia boss of their syndicate, and while on his death bed he wrote his final will saying his daughter would inherit the "family business".
Gosh if he wasn't such a weak hearted man to his family, I would of never gotten tangled up in this mess!
But the good part of all this is that no one really knows Jae-he or well -me-
Since again- she always stayed in her room, only to leave if there was a food shortage
But- what do I do?
I've already been lying here for about 2 weeks, trying to fully prosses what was happening
Its not like I can disregard Dae-jin's fathers debt, that would just anger the other mafia members
Plus even if I could, although I am the boss in name, I'm not recognized as a boss infront of the many who are still in this godforsaken mafia.
So I'd still end up dead anyways-
Also- I'm really hungry-
I didnt notice that 2 full weeks had passed at all until I looked at the calander
The last date that was marked was July 17, XXXX
And from the computer I could see that it was already the 31st
So I managed to get myself off the floor and stand up, although it was extremely painfull
And looked at my new self in the mirror
Safe to say- I was shocked!
This girl had such beautiful features, ebony hair, emerald like iris and a dark and cold looking pupils- pinkish pale skin much like cherry blossoms-
Okay, saying it outloud makes it sound odd and unnerving
But blame that on reading so much, I cant help but notice small details like that-
But, that was all just the face- the body however, I can't say it was "beautiful" per-say
Her body was pure bones- hypothetically of course
You could see her ribcage, she ready didn't have any meat in her body
No wonder she was able to be killed so easily
Seeing this- I kinda miss my slightly cuby features from before- that was defenetly much more healthy than this!
I can't live like this! Alright, plan A is in action
Get this body to a healthy weight and train it so that I'm not weak like a twig!
The first step is to eat!
I then opend the door next to the mirror leading to what I asume is the living room.
Which it is- I then make my way to the kitchen not far from the room.
I open the fridge and- I suddenly feel like im going to faint, don't know if its due to starvation or the fact that there was absolutely ¡Nothing! in the fridge-
I then open the cabinets to see if there is any food.
Almost all the cabinets were empty, exept for two, one containing instant ramen and all kinds of junck food, and the other was filled with candies, from lolipops to gum to gummys.
Just looking at all these sweets made my teeth rot.
Sure, I like sweets more than the next person but not to the extent that I would have so much of it to fill an entire cabinet of 36 by 34 with a Width of 6, or at least I assume from the amount of things I see stuffed in it.
I can't possibly eat this!
I need to order food asap!
I went back into the room to try an search the computer for some kind of site to order ingredients at.
Thankfully the stores here only had a letter or two in difference from actual stores in the real world. It probably was to avoid copyright, smart move author- smart move but dumb execution- (why name it ballwart?)
I was picking the cheapest but most nutritional ingredients that I could find.
The moment I was going to pay, I remembered that I was no longer in my real world aka, I didnt have my money that I worked so hard for-
I panicked for a few seconds before I noticed a little sticky note with the credit card information of Jae-he-
I dont know if Jae-he herself put that there or if anyone else did, but thank you- you are a literal life saver.
Fortunately I didnt have to buy kitchen equipment-
Food had already costed me like 380 something dollars (which would be around 502,455.00 ish won)
Adding equipment to that would of been the end for me.
I left the room once again after the shock of my life.
A bit before that-
After I had purchased the groceries, I got a text on my phone saying [you have spent above 500,000 won ballwart, above 1 billion won is left in you bank account] seeing exacly how much money was in Jae-he's bank account I nearly fainted again-
So much money, for what? Sweet! junk food! Games! it would of been such a waste!
After regaining my thought's, I decided to take a look around the house-
There was 3 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 gyms and a jacuzzi room with a built in sauna and other typical rich people rooms.
Plus the fact it was several stories tall, im guesing this is or better said -was- the main building for the mafia-
If I hadnt noticed before, how much money Jae-he had- I would of by now.
She was rich!
However, almost none of the rooms looked like there was anyone living in it-
Exept for her fathers bedroom, which seemed to have housed him during his death-
Just when I was about to sit down on the sofa, a *ring* echoed through the appartment, if you can even call it that.
My groceries had been delivered.
I was kinda nervous, after all what if I had to sign to confirm I bought it!
I dont know Jae-he's signature!
I slowly oppened the door to find- no one- just my bags on the floor of hall.
I grabbed them and placed them inside-
Taking them out of their bags and placing them neatly in the fridge and cabinets.
After organizing- I decided to award myself for a job well done, I made myself some of my favorite foods-
Some Yuja tea, Mandu ( korean style dumplings) Miyeokguk (seaweed soup) and Soondubu (soft tofu soup)
Light and simple dishes, relatively easy of me to make -and intake after not eating for quite some time-
I moved the food onto plates and ate in the dinning room which was right across from the main window.
While eating I was looking at the serenity that this place had to offer.
It made me wonder why so much crime is done in the underground of this same place.
But I guess it is inevitable, the world is defenetly not rainbows and sunshine.
Just looking outside made me feel melancholic.
I wonder how those children who always studied in the library are doing-
Or how did my manager react to my lifeless body?
And so my mind drifted off...
When I finaly reagained focus, it had already been 2 hours, and the food had gotten too cold to eat.
I put the leftover food in the few containers that I had.
I opened the cabinet that had the candies in it and grabbed one of those "gourmet" lollipops, bubblegum flavor- tasted like a sertain x-bismal medicine.
But satisfiying nonetheless.
I cleaned the dirty plates and looked at the time, it was mearly 8 am.
I had left the room at around 6:20ish am.
After putting away the plates I decided to clean a certain room, if I was going to use it any further-
After all, I'm trapped in this body wether I like it or not!
I spent 5 Full Hours cleaning all that mess.
It took me 15 Trash bags! to clean everything.
I suspect all that gunk had been accumulated for more than 2 years.
Truely disgusting...
.
I was drenched in sweat once I finished cleaning-
So I went looking for some clothes to wear (since literaly all of Jae-he's clothes were dirty, stained and ripped, like- how could she live like that!!)
I searched in the different bedrooms,
Ofcourse the only clothes I found were the few that had been left by her mother, and the huge amount of clothes left by her father-
I don't wanna dirty her mothers clothes, for they were probably sentimental (well, technecaly my mother now)
So I steped into the ¡walk in! Closet that her dad had-
Sure almost none of the clothes were my aesthetic of dark academia.
But I defenetly like the yakuza type clothes-
So elegant but fierce at the same time!
I picked out some simple black silk pijamas and went to bathe.
For the first time ever I took a 5 hour bath (in the bath tub of course- i always wanted to have that luxury)
I was so dirty, I had to change the water twice since it was turning brown!
But I felt refreshed afterwards
Jae-he's (or well mine- i should get used to saying that) fathers clothes were quite big on me- but its manageable.
I reheated the leftovers from this morning and ate them infront of the tv.
Fortunatly there was an interesting show airing at the time, which was a nice relaxer after all the work I did today.
After digesting the food,I brushed my teeth and went to sleep.
I repeated this reutine for about six months
In those six months I also trained my body in the gym.
It's really a good thing that I know how to tolerate muscle pain, due to having to drag and carry so many books, since the library didnt have any carts- (which was news to me when I first started working there)
I ended up making good progress, at the start I weight only 87 lbs for a stature of 5'8, which was highly unhealthy- in those six months I was able to gain 90 lbs
I know it might sound exaggerated, but thanks to my meal plan and constant exercise aka gaining muscle, I was able to get a good and healthy weight.
Plus now clothes fit comfortably but arent lose!
I say its a win-
In the spare time that I had after compleating all the tasks for the day, I take a look at the frequent case file updates that other members make on clients and or the debitors.
I doubt that the normal members are updating, which means the only ones- or might I say only one.
Is Beom-seok Park, who was my fathers right hand man which was a shocker to the readers for how young he was described to be- (I belive he was 27?)
Wait- how old was Jae-he again?
I looked in the phone calander and saw that her birthday was July 20th of XXXX, her birthday had past and I didn't know- by then I had already transmigrated to her body- but no one came to even say Happy birthday to her-
I felt sorry for Jae-he- how could people not celebrate her birthday- did they hate her that much?
At the very least I was able to figure out how old she was- or well- is, I can't believe she will die at the measly age of 24- she was currently 20- so four year's are all I have to prevent my untimely death...
How delightful-...
After having found that out- saying my mood became grim is an understatement-
I entertained myself by going online and purchasing some books on managing money and sorting debt's- I mean- I needed something to put in the basicaly empty bookshelfs in my room.
Once the books had arrived I put my focus to learn as much as possible-
Oh how complicated things are in the world of debt's-
I'm very much glad that I don't have any-
From what these books are saying- once you gain debt its only going to go up- no matter what you do-
Which I dought is real in my original world- most likely these books are based on the information of the actual novel- I guess if its something to do with the main character's life, figures it would never be that easy to solve their problems-
It was around 9pm when I finished taking notes on the books.
I ate yesterdays leftovers which were some Bulgogi (Korean BBQ Beef) and Tteokbokki (red rice cakes)
And went to my fathers study, which contained a considerable amount of books- honestly a safe haven for my bookworm tendencies.
I spent the rest of the night reading books that I took interest in- safe to say I learned a lot today
Afterwards it was around 2 in the morning- I took a bath and dressed myself for bed, this time since its cold out I dressed in wool pyjamas- still my father tho- I still don't feel that comfortable to buy my own clothes, and plus these do great!
I went to sleep the moment I dressed myself.
