(A day ago)
Ding!
『 You have failed to change the fate of the Devil of the Arctic. The people of Apex now trust him. 』
『 Story Progression Rate: 6 — 14 』
Cough. Cough.
"Shit."
I had tried to hold it back, but it seems I couldn’t.
After the entrance exam, I thought things would beco sunshine and roses. I thought my love story would finally begin.
That I could finally put on headphones and daydream about a boy I really liked, but the world decided to spit in my face.
Life drain.
It was after Allen’s speech that the system activated.
The system’s orders were simple.
Change the fate of the world.
Not survive, not beco the strongest.
But change Allen’s fate.
Each ti he strayed closer to the original plot, the more my body collapsed. Each ti he diverted, the more rewards I earned.
But after he passed the test and won the favor of the first years, the system triggered again.
"That ans at this rate, Allen will beco evil again."
But it didn’t make sense, did it?
I lay back on my bed. ’When everyone hated Allen, the system reacted. And when everyone loved him, it also did.’
I flung my leg in the air. "That bastard is driving insane."
And I couldn’t even run from him, like why?
I didn’t force him to be a villain. I didn’t...
I suddenly sat upright. "Wait, just a mont."
Allen Vanderbilt beca evil not because of himself, but because of the one he loved.
"Bingo."
A grin crept across my face. "What if I beco the one he loves the most?"
I hurled the pillow in my hand and squealed. "You’re a genius, Sylvia!"
But the problem was Allen.
"That bastard isn’t easy to crack."
How do I make a lunatic fall for ?
There was a lot of competition.
I pressed a finger to my lips. ’Would a kiss work?’
Perhaps it would, if we went smoochy smoochy.
I shook my head vigorously. "What are you even thinking about?!"
It wasn’t like I loved him or anything, maybe just a little, but still.
"Should I stop liking the other Allen?"
I might look like a creep if I liked a dead man. Plus, if I beca half-hearted about this, I would fail.
I pumped my fist. "I’ll make him fall for at all costs, then use him to protect so I won’t die."
Quickly grabbing my phone, I opened the Licklok app and searched:
"How to know if a boy has fallen for you."
I pulled out a pen and began jotting everything down.
[If a boy loves you, he will never follow you from behind.]
I nodded, scribbling it.
[A boy who loves you will always look away when you look at him.]
"Is that so? Allen definitely does that."
After finishing the long video, I even paid extra for more classes before dozing off.
The night passed in a blur, and the first thing I did in the morning was head for the academy library.
Not the modern, fancy ones, but where I could find traditional books.
I needed to read about ancient and dieval loves, the kind they used in edits.
As soon as I entered, I found a seat and started reading.
Next week, when I et Allen, I will be different. A new and improved Sylvia.
However, the world was against , because Allen opened the door and walked in.
’He cut his hair...’ That was the first thought that hit . ’Damn, he’s hot. Shouldn’t being him be a cri?’
And why did they give such a face to a villain?
I shook my head and tried to slip away, only for him to point straight at .
The rest of the conversation blurred together as I tried different techniques I’d learned.
It seed to work on him at one point, at least until he said that na.
My leg was propped on his knee while he slipped my boot on.
He seed distracted, then muttered one na that made my fingers stiffen.
"Kim Jin-ah."
"What did you—?"
The words snagged in my throat.
How did he know my na?
That wasn’t possible.
"What... did... you... just say?"
He glanced up at , wearing his usual innocent, adorable expression.
"Oh, that," he said. "I just rembered a friend who wanted that tattoo."
Tattoo?
I swallowed hard. ’No way, right?’
Once, during a chase, I’d told Allen I wanted a tattoo like that, but...
Was it even possible?
What were the chances?
"Night..." My breath hitched as Allen’s eyes lingered on , waiting.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
『 User, please refrain from sharing unnecessary information that could hasten the world’s end. 』
『 If you continue, we shall enforce a penalty. 』
Huh?
"Sylvia, are you alright?"
I quickly shook my head. "Sorry, sothing just startled ."
Allen nodded, though hesitantly.
He sensed sothing had shifted in .
’Pull yourself together.’
It was strange that the system warned now of all tis.
Just how much effect did the word ’Night_Hawks’ have on Allen?
I couldn’t trust the system.
Never.
If I wanted to survive this world and save Allen, I had to rely only on myself.
"Hey, Allen."
The first thing I needed to do was monopolize most of Allen’s ti.
He needed all the girls in his life, but I had to be number one.
The first of the five devils of winter.
"Can you teach a bit of magic?"
No more pretending not to like him, no more acting.
Ti to be .
I tapped my temple lightly. "I think I’m a bit of an airhead."
