I’m Sorry, but It’s Because I’m an Ordinary Person - Chapter 33
At the same time, the top floor of Paradise Guild.
Those who the guild leader had called gathered and waited for one person.
“Where is he?”
“Preparing for the upcoming gate,” said Favor, sitting half-lying on a soft sofa, tapping the phone screen.
Loveless glanced lightly at the Favor and sat across from him. His smirk, for God knows what, was annoying, but she endured because it was only once or twice. She was thankful because she didn’t meet I Really Like first instead.
“Is it just you and me who are called?”
“No way. He should’ve called IRL too. Well, he’ll probably be late again this time from sticking to the leader’s side.” Favor shrugged at Loveless’ question.
“Anyway, I heard you say the king. How is she?”
Well. Loveless leaned back against the back of the sofa and rummaged through her memory in the simulator.
She didn’t see her dealing with the King of Sloth, who appeared in the middle, but she had seen enough of her strength in the match against the boss.
While wielding that greatsword heavy enough to look at, she swept the monsters away helplessly. That states overwhelming strength. Someone who has reached the final stage that all Awakened seek.
She felt like her blood boiled when she faced those gray eyes that she couldn’t understand. It differed from when she saw him, who introduced himself as a regressor.
“Her Highness…”
‘Miss Saetbyeol. I need you.’
The white full moon rose behind his pale head. A backlight cast over the bloody cheeks. His purple eyes, resembling moonlight, glistened with madness.
‘Would you like to be Her Highness’ ninth servant again?’
“…somehow looks a little like him.”
“Who are you talking about? Say it with a subject. Do you mean IRL?” Favor, lying flat on his stomach on the sofa, said with one eye squinted. How dare he do that pose?
Loveless threw a cigarette pack in her outer pocket into Favor’s head and hit him.
“Ah!!”
It didn’t hurt, but he screamed as if he’d been blatantly offended. At the same time, Favor’s shirt collar was pulled back, and he leaned over.
Ku-dang-tang—
Favor fell backward at the sudden touch and rolled on the floor.
As usual, I Really Like, who came out of the air, sat down where he had been sitting a while ago, and lowered his head.
“Welcome.”
Polar Night appeared through the open door without a single noise. Loveless greeted Polar Night with a light smile as if she were in a good mood.
“Her Highness’s ninth servant meets the first servant.”
This was a very long, old engagement that continued from the previous life, the one before that, and more before that, depending on the memory.
***
Kiiik—
“Mom, I’m home.”
When I opened the front door and entered, I could smell the fresh air freshener on the shoe rack. Hiding my anxiety about when my mom would show up, I tiptoed.
“Woo Yeonhui, talk with me.”
Hiccup.
I ate well and crawled home well, but why do I get hiccups? The diaphragm, which contracted with each breath, produced a constant squeak.
Wow, this place is hot today. Who made our madam so angry?
Looking roughly at the distant mountain, I slowly crawled before my mom and sat down. Then Mom, who sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, opened her mouth.
“How old are you?”
“Mom. If you sit cross-legged, spinal surgery will cost 30 million won…”
“Is it time for you to joke with your mother? In the Joseon Dynasty, you could be called Her Majesty the Queen at my age. The Queen! When will you ever come to your senses?”
Mom sighed and clicked her tongue. Looking at my mom like that, I answered brightly.
“But the Queen Dowager says children are always babies. They’re so cute, and taking care of them is fun.”
“What do you mean by cute? They’re all gross after they’ve grown up. Do you want to say that with your own mouth?”
“Yeonhui is a baby. Waa.”
It was a little different from the direction I originally pursued, but lying down like this didn’t seem too bad.
Nothing is embarrassing about making baby noises when there’s no one else in the house.
I lay flat on the living room floor and closed my eyes as if I knew nothing. Next to me, I could feel my mom patting my side, asking if I finally wanted to be kicked out of the house.
No, that’s not it. This is wrong.
I quickly withdrew my irrational remarks and raised my upper body. Still, seeing that she accepted the joke, Mom seemed less angry.
I haven’t lived long, but I know one thing. Everyone knows that life is always about timing.
“Mom, I’m sorry, but I have an appointment, and I think I’ll have to go out again.”
There have been quite a few times I stayed out without contacting her. It’s not just “quite”, actually. It’s a lot.
Basically, no one knows when you will come out when you enter a dungeon. In addition, the Hunters Association headquarters and the goddamned members of dimension society harassed people all the time.
Yes, the opening of the gate is not something humans can do. It’s the will of all the guys who come in.
“What? Didn’t you just come back from Daybreak?”
Mom narrowed her eyes when she received a sudden notification of going out. It’s true that I just returned from Daybreak. I didn’t mean to deny that either.
“Mm. But I met another guild member there.”
In the hallway of the apartment before I opened the door.
“I think I’ll have to go to Paradise Guild for a while.”
I saw the black hair on I Really Like. Besides, the emergency stairway door is always open, but it was somehow closed today.
“… What?”
I’m not good at reading other people’s expressions, even with nice words, but I felt like I could read my mom’s expression now.
That Paradise out there? That cult?
That exact expression.
Oh, my god. As if it’s not enough that my daughter, whom I sent off to Daybreak Guild, was gone for a long time, but she suddenly notifies me that she’s going to Paradise Guild?
Such unfilial children like this exist in the world? I heard cultists are made because of the lack of intelligence, so I raised her well and sent her to college, but her intelligence index suddenly dropped?!
Is this the 21st-century childbearing failure?!
… It seemed that such slogans were floating around in her head.
Cough. Of course, my mom wouldn’t think that way, but if I were my child, I would think that way. This is my mothers give birth to daughters! or something like that.
It’s not difficult to make one excuse that resulted in the failure of childbearing.
I shouted calmly, looking at my mom, who still looked dumbfounded, “I Really Like!”
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds.
I wasn’t calling a taxi, so it was right that he didn’t come out because I called him. But it felt strange when he didn’t come when I proudly called for him…
“If you don’t come out, I’ll tell the guild leader-”
“Hello.”
A black crack shone in front of my eyes. Eventually, his head popped out. Well, this is what I saw in the hallway earlier.
Mom, half out of her mind, freaked out at the sight of IRL’s head sticking out of thin air.
After all, who wouldn’t be surprised when only a head popped out of the air? Definitely not those who have a weak heart.
Besides, this protruding human is also a monster.
I Really Like, the face madam of Paradise, famous for only gathering strange people, and a super-special celebrity in the Hunters’ world who curses Paradise. There’s even a meme that if you receive a random package, IRL will kidnap you.

Why are the neighborhood’s crows like this? Hundreds of crows fell from the clear sky;;
Is this a sign of the end of the world?

— Crows? If it’s crows, will it have something to do with Soap Bubbles? They’re Big Crow.
ㄴ That unemployed guy from Daybreak? They said they wouldn’t even go to work unless the leader ordered it because it was bothersome.
ㄴ Yes, yes he’s not going to work today either.
ㄴ How do you know that? Are you a member of the Daybreak Guild?
ㄴ They must be. Don’t dig into other people’s personal information ;;
— Wuuu; crows shit ain’t no joke
ㄴ Are you posting something like this during lunch so that the food tastes bad?
ㄴ But if they fell from the sky in groups, it would be frightening
— I know the culprit.
ㄴ You ??
ㄴ ?Who?
ㄴ IR-
ㄴ Who?
ㄴ I agree
— Since it’s someone with space characteristics, it seems plausible enough, but why did he drop them in Suwon City? I don’t understand.
ㄴ IR went on a business trip while LVLS took a vacation
ㄴ Why does LVLS appear here?
ㄴ Oh, is it true that LVLS lives in Suwon? There was an article the other day
ㄴ OMG
ㄴ LOL Really?
ㄴ Yes. Distance, the paparazzi of Hunters published an article.

ㄴ How can he use I Really Like as a nickname when his personality is fucked up like that LOL
ㄴ No filter? You’ll get caught; Erase it quickly;
ㄴ You’re wrong, it looks like they’re already been caught
ㄴ -The warmth of the deceased remains-
… …
He’s famous for his actions that caused natural disasters in an area.
『“Hunter Yoo Juha! Please tell us about the number of people from Paradise participating at the gate…』
『“…”』
“Mr. Hunter! Mr. Hunter!!”
“Don’t call me with that face.”
The interview at the time of the pollution disaster is remembered as a legend that revealed the personality of this person to the world,
[The ‘Red Lion’, a small guild in North Gyeongsang Province, lost their dungeon to the SS-class Hunter ‘I Really Like you’…]
[Hunter Magazine Vol. 21. Who is the worst Hunter picked by Hunters this year? – Exploring ‘I Really Like’ on ‘Paradise’!]
[Hunter’s representative from the government, . “When dealing with Hunter-related incidents, the Hunter I see the most is ‘I Really Like’ from ‘Paradise’.”]
[Following Suwon City, Hwaseong City’s crows. ‘Soap Bubbles’ announces intention to sue ‘I Really Like’, the main culprit of the case…]
That small-minded thing—I mean, Hunter is talked in many ways because of various big incidents.
He’s widely featured on the bulletin board of the Hunters Association, as well as in news and Internet articles, and his popularity is one of the best among Hunters in our country. Famous in a bad sense, not famous in a good sense. He’s famous in a bad way.
Anyway, that damn personality and sparkling appearance clearly imprinted I Really Like not only on Hunters but also on the minds of ordinary people.
“Y-You’re that…?”
And my mom, who was also an ordinary TV viewer, had seen this kid on the news dozens of times.
