[ Expressionless awakener ]
I was not prepared for this, i didn't even know the protagonist would make a situation like this!
Involving me!!
I was confused, The tip of my hair shakingly moved to a confused and feared state.
'Is this a dream!? Or a nightmare!?' I thought as i stared at the protagonist confusingly and scaredly.
I looked at the protagonist as he stood by the door.
I didn't even believe my own eyes, i blinked twice and it was real! For me to see the main protagonist this close was a first!
But as i stared at the main protagonist's eyes further and further.
The room was instantly filled with awkwardness as we stared into each other's eyes.
Hes eyes were shining with coldness and darkness, and hes expression was really aggressive.
There is also a hint of suspicion as i stared at him more and more.
I could tell that i was some culprit to hes suspicion..
the main protagonist finally took hes first move.
He immediately took both of my wrists and pinned me agains't the wall.
'ACK!' I muttered silently as i touched the cold concrete.
I was confused and petrified and hes arms were as strong as a bull.
"H-hey..hey... we can talk about this...I-i don't know what i had d-done...but... p-please..let go of my hands..." I spoke as i stuttered each word i said, Obviously scared.. in an expressionless and shaky way.
Finally, he spoke;
"Who are you?" He asked in a low tone.
I shrieked, the tip of my hair moved and simbolized a stunned and yet frightening shake.
the protagonist moved hes face a bit closer.
"How did you know my name?" He asked again in a lower and colder manner.
"Will...e-everyone of the students knows your name...so..." I replied stutteringly.
Suddenly, A blue screen appeared at the right side of my shoulder.
[ I'm really sorry!! I tried to stop him but... (╯︵╰,) ]
The system wasn't able to finish its sentence as it replied.
I stared at the system and then down to both my feet.
the protagonist muttered in a darker tone;
"MY REAL NAME."
I felt my inner self shriek in fear as i heard what he said... but at the same time.. confused.
The tip of my hair moved to resemble a confused mark as i tilted my head.
"Real..name?" I spoke confusingly.
"Don't lie to me." He spoke coldly.
My head was spinning and felt like something was missing.
Then..a strike hit me.
'Kwan...jihu?'
'But wait..How did he know that i know hes real name!?' I thought as i confused myself even more.
"Tell me... HOW DID YOU KNOW MY NAME?" he spoke in a much colder and darker tone as he stared at me with hes shining yet cold-like eyes.
My eyes widened a bit as i felt sweat dripping from the top of my head.
As i tried to escape from hes grip, He tightly gripped my wrist tighter so i could not escape.
"There is no use escaping from me.. nor there is to lie to me to escape.." He spoke as he moved hes face closer.
I felt my soul faintly leaving my body because of the fear he is giving to me.
Although i was expressionless on the outside, i felt massive fear on the inside, so its normal for my body to shake from fear despite being expressionless.
I continued to lie to him.
"I-i don't know what your talking about.." I mumbled silently.
Hes eyes reverted in a much, much darker and colder way.
"Don't play dumb."
"I know you muttered my real name before you passed out on the ground at the school banquet." He spoke coldly.
'....?'
5 dots were spinning like a loading screen above my head.
'I..muttered your real name at the school banquet?' I thought.
The system who was still at the right side of my shoulder changed to the front of my face and texted;
[ Yup! You accidentally muttered kwan jihu's name! Thats why hes suspicious of you~ (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ ]
I stared at the system confusingly before jihu could reply.
"Oh. So you can see the system?" He replied as i instantly looked down at my feet.
My sweat was dripping and dripped to the bottom of my foot.
I was quiet for a while.
"Luckily,None of the students heard your name except me." Jihu muttered coldly as he stared.
"So.. explain... and answer my question, How did you know my real name?" He spoke as cold as before.
I was still silent.
To be honest... I was hesistant on telling him. I just don't actually like it if i tell anyone that im some reincarnater from another world and tell that this world is a novel. No! I literally don't like it. It's just simply annoying....
But in this situation, If i don't answer now, I might die single again!!
I drooped and sighed.
'I have no other choice...' I thought as I continued to stare at him.
I was serious, I don't have any excuses nor can i make up lies to escape this situation. If i do any of that, I don't know what the main protagonist would do to me.
Death maybe?
'The truth is the truth...' I thought.
"I am a reincarnater, just like you." I spoke staring at jihu.
"Huh.. I did expect you were." Jihu replied.
"But what i want to know is how you knew my REAL name." He spoke coldly.
I continued to speak like I ordered when he stared at me.
"I also read the novel."
I mumbled silently.
"You mean.. 'Lights awakening'? but what does it have to do with knowing my past-life name?" Jihu replied aggressively.
'Light's awakening' novel only mentioned Alexander Grace, Currently kwan jihu's name. If he ever mention a change on hes name inside the novel, the other characters would get suspicious, and might backfire the protagonist's plan.
So it was reasonable for him to get suspicion of me on how i knew hes name or something.
"It wasn't that novel, That novel never existed in my world."
I answered.
"What do you mean it doesn't exist? We both are from the same world aren't we?" Jihu spoke coldly yet confused at the same time.
"Maybe...probably.. but... you were the protagonist, jihu."
I muttered expressionlessly.
"Im not." He replied quickly.
"You are." I answered back
"I don't believe you." He replied back again coldly.
"You should."
I replied back again.
"And why would i believe you?" He asked coldly.
"I know your real name, Isn't that why you kidnapped me for this?" I tilted my head as i spoke.
Jihu was silent.
".....If you still don't believe me, I can tell you about how your parents died from the same disease and that you-"
Before i could finish, He shutted my mouth with hes huge hand.
"SHUT IT." He spoke in a colder and aggressive tone.
My eyes widened and shrieked a bit.
'I think i went a bit overboard of what i said-...' I thought as sweat drooped.
Suddenly I felt the listlessness and laziness appearing inside of me.
I sighed.
My tired eyes began to form somehow...Not sure why tho, maybe it's because of the exhaustion of being scared and terrified by this guy?
Jihu stared at me with violent-like contempt as he took away hes hand from my mouth.
"Sorry..." I spoke silently.
Jihu was still silent before ignoring my apology.
"What novel did you read?" He asked coldly as usual.
"Novel reincarnation." I replied.
"...Oh.." He twitched hes eyebrows as he spoke coldly.
"You read the whole novel, right?"
"I did read the whole novel but..."
I cutted my sentence before i looked down at my feet.
"But..?" He spoke as he tilted hes head slightly.
"But....i forgot almost the entire storyline.."
I spoke nervously.
"..." Jihu was silent, looking at me with a confused expression as i said that.
"You forgot?" He spoke.
"En." I simply said yes.
I sighed
'I don't want to continue this conversation in further....' I thought as i drooped my head in tiredness.
"Can you let me go now...?" I spoke in a tired manner.
Jihu was still grabbing my other wrist after shutting my moiuth with hes right hand.
Jihu was quiet but letted me go afterwards
"Your name?" Jihu asked coldly.
"Kim....johnson.." I replied.
As he was about to go to the door, He stared back at me once more.
Jihu sighed pathetically.
"...I never thought that the novel would change like this...will it already become like this anyway... A change like this in the novel is minimal.. But the novel will change in minimal ways which causes greater risks.... If i can't change this novel the way I needed it to be, A little use will help me change it... and when i meant that... You better become useful, KIM JOHNSON." Jihu spoke coldly and menacingly, giving me quite a shriek.
"I'll tell you when the time comes."
Jihu said hes last words before leaving out the door.
"Use...ful?" I tilted my head in confusion.
[ Hes gonna use you, silly! (☞^o^) ☞ ]
The system appeared and texted right in front of me.
I was quiet for a while.
I dropped on the floor and felt my inner soul coming back and at the same time, feeling listless and tired.
I only gained little courage throughout this conversation and now im feeling the relief and relaxation i needed.
I sighed with a huge amount of relief.
[ Seems like your a bit tired! hehe (◠‿・)—☆ ] The system replied with a chuckle like in the texts.
I stared at the system expressionlessly, but somehow showed slight annoyance.
'I mean... what other choice do i have to say but tell the truth in that situation...?' I thought.
'If a normal person would get involved in a situation similar to mine, they would immediately tell the truth, wont they..? I mean, For me i hesitated before i could tell the truth..'
'I'm not that smart to find a way to escape that situation, and the only choice i had was actually telling him..'
'Besides...Isn't it a bit too early for me to tell him?? I mean.. two years have passed... but still..' I thought as i continued to make up more excuses expressionlessly.
I sighed.
'Whatever..I'll have to try lowering the attention of other students and maybe go back to my used-to-be life somehow...' I thought as i shook my head.
My stomach began to grumble.
I was quiet for a moment but soon realized that i haven't eaten lunch!
I took the door knob and went outside, The sky that used to be blue turned orange as i looked through the windows.
"..." I was quiet for a moment, giving 3 dots.
'Did that conversation really took that long?' I thought as my stomach continued to rumble.
'Ahh....'
[ Expressionless Awakener ]
After kim was kidnapped.....
.
.
All three of the friends were already at the tree, at the back of the school.
Lavyn spoke first;
"I wonder were kim is... He is taking quiet a while.."
"He probably took a huge dump." Jacob replied.
"I don't think he was going to take a dump." Fynn spoke nonchalantly.
"Then why the heck is he taking so long!? We already ate our lunches! and hes lunchbox is still left uneaten!" Jacob shouted.
"I'm not sure...but what if....Kim was in danger!?" Fynn spoke of concern.
The three friends were quiet for a while before speaking.
"..."
"Naaaaaaahhhhh!" The three friends chuckled as they both spoke at the same time.
"Im sure he'll be fine." Lavyn replied.
"Yup." Jacob spoke aswell.
"Oh welp..lets just go to our classes, jacob." Lavyn spoke.
"Ye" Jacob answered.
"Welp, bye guys!" Fynn waved as the two friends left the tree to go to their classes.
Now fynn was left all alone.
"..."
"I guess im alone now..."
Fynn mumbled quietly as he sat by the tree...
