When I saw the system that wanted to send me to my death, I realised: this system isn't going to help me at all… So I need to go there.
But with whom?..
Ahhh… I don't know. Maybe with Baek So-ah… or some teacher… Ahhhh… what a tough choice…
'Hey, Kim Ha-jin, shall we go for a walk after all?' said Baek So-ah.
'Oh, it's you, So-ah… All right, let's go, of course… Just… I'm popping out somewhere, OK?' said Kim Ha-jin.
'Right, okay,' said Baek So-ah.
We agreed to meet outside after lessons.
But now…
'Haaaa… aaaaaaaaaaa… no… no… no… Why does she want to go for a walk with me?! And why did I agree?! I know I'm no good for her…' said Kim Ha-jin, in tears.
I can't forget my parents' deaths… They died because I was weak…
But why is she so kind to me?..
I don't deserve this…
WHY DOES SHE WANT TO HELP ME?!
I won't be able to protect her from the monsters…
But… maybe this is a chance?..
To become friends… And when I get stronger… I'll be able to be with her…
Yes… yes! — said Kim Ha-jin hysterically.
— Hey, what are you doing here?.. Let me give you a hug, — said Baek So-ah.
— Hey… what are you doing here… did you hear everything? — said Kim Ha-jin.
— No, I didn't hear a thing… But I came because I heard the screams. So don't worry, — she said, and then hugged Kim Ha-jin.
'Why are you doing this? Why are you hugging me?' said Kim Ha-jin.
'Well… I want to help. So, shall we go somewhere?' said Baek So-ah.
Kim Ha-jin fell silent for a moment…
'Let's go… to a dungeon,' said Kim Ha-jin.
