Chapter 279:
The people of this world have a strong mentality.
Even if a superpowered person appears in their neighborhood while they are attending a class, they will continue to attend the class and run away very quickly if a villain appears.
Unlike the world I came from, the whole world is full of superpowers and villains. The public in this world shows that they have adapted to any kind of terrorism. Its a world where people go to work the day after an attack.
So, what is my point?
It was only a month after the terrifying Moonlight Gate disaster, but the amusement park was still crowded.
Wow! Da-in, Eun-woo, were going on this one first!
What are you talking about? You have to ride the roller coaster first.
This amusement park was packed with people under a sunny blue sky.
We had come here with the whole family, and as we walked through the crowds in the warm sunshine, we were trying to decide what to ride.
There was so much energy everywhere.
I wasnt in a bad mood as I was just out for some air but everyone was having fun.
I silently smiled at Seo-eun, Choi Se-hee, and Soobin, who were looking at the map of the amusement park and deeply discussing where to go first.
However, I wondered how people who normally fly in the sky or ride giant robots could love rides so much. If you fly in the sky by yourself, isnt that a roller coaster?
Da-in, you should ride this!
Huh? Oh yeah, okay, lets go. Soobin, lets go.
Yes Da-in.
With that, I went for a ride with Soobin, who smiled at me cheerfully.
At least there werent too many people, so the line was shorter than I expected and we got in quickly.
I waited in line for a few minutes while chatting with the other members.
Hey, Da-in, try this.
Hey, look at this.
De-in Are you cold? Do you want me to put a spell on you?
I shook my head no to Eun-woo whispering in my ear.
Oh, and there was one problem with standing like this. Im attracting too many stares.
Of course, weve all cast a spell that prevents people from recognizing us, but its hard not to notice people with yellow, silver, and purple hair standing together. Some of them look at me strangely, but I dont know why.
Anyway, the line finally cleared and we were able to get on the ride.
I sat next to Seo-eun on the ride, and we rode.
Waaaaaaaaaaaah!
Well, it was fun.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was kind of funny that the villains were playing together like this, mingling with the general public, but what the heck. I guess its okay if they dont get caught, right?
Come on, lets go on that one next!
Okay!
Guys, can we go a little slower?
I was dragged around like that, enjoying the amusement park.
Everyone had good stamina. Haha.
***
Whew Seo-eun, Im going to take a break. You guys go play with yourselves.
What? Theres no such thing! We should play together!
I dont know how many hours have passed since then.
My tireless stamina had already been drained by the fact that Choi Se-hee and Seo-eun had decided to ride every ride in this amusement park today, and after playing, eating, and playing, my stamina had already been drained.
Oh no. This is worse than terrorism. I need to get some rest
Okay, Seo-eun, Da-in its not feeling well after all that, so lets give him a break.
Okay. I cant help it.
Seo-eun, Ill take a break and catch up with you later.
Okay, Da-in, see you later then.
With that, I sent the five girls on their way and ordered a cup of tea by the window of a cafe in the amusement park.
Shinryong didnt come with us because she said it was hard. As it turns out, she thought of everything. Is this the wisdom of the ancestors?
While I was thinking about that, I was looking out the foggy window at the people running around.
The chair next to me was dragged across the floor.
Whoa.
Soobin, who came with a mug, sat down next to me so casually.
Uh, Soobin?
Yes, Da-in.
Are you not going on the rides?
I asked, and she replied.
Uh, yeah. Its kind of hard for meand Da-in, you get bored when youre alone.
She smiles a little as she says that.
I always thought that Soobin was a really nice person and as I chatted with her, time passed quickly.
I recovered some of my strength and joined everyone.
Okay, since Dai-in said he cant go on the rides, lets go there!
Where?
The haunted house!
?
And so our next destination became a haunted house.
We have a ghost in our house, too, hes called Death Knight. Death is in his name, although he sleeps in my ring.
Anyway, our next stop was a haunted house.
Since we couldnt all go in together, we split into two teams. I went with Seo Eun and Soobin with Eun-wol.
The staff guided us into a pitch-black room where we could barely see each others faces with the help of a flashlight.
It was a very scary atmosphere, as we could not see a single thing in the darkness and this thing looked so big from the outside
Im suddenly a little worried about Choi Se-hee and Seo Ja-young. Arent they going to freak out and attack the ghost?
Aaaaahhh. Da-in, arent you scared?
Meanwhile, Seo-eun grabbed my right arm with both hands and said that she was scared, but her face was smiling like she was having fun. She doesnt believe in superstitions because shes an engineerDesik will be sad if he sees her
Eun-woo is also looking scared, but shes practiced magic, so shes not scared by a ghost or maybe shes used to communicating with spirits because shes a shaman.
As for Soobin, she hadnt spoken since she came here, but she still looked calm. Probably.
Da-in, the concept here must be an abandoned house. Look at the detailed woodwork underneath. Its a skeleton! Its so scary.
!
Seo-eunyou shouldnt say something like that while smiling so that its more convincing.
Seo-eun still had my hands restrained and were almost hugging now.
More than that, when Seo-eun was mimicking her screams earlier, it seems that Soobin slightly flinched and lifted her shoulders
I continued to walk, relying on the light of my flashlight and, finally.
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
The first ghost appeared out of nowhere from beyond the closet.
A woman dressed in a white robe like Eun-woos, with her hands clasped in front of her and her black hair hanging down was running toward us.
Kaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Seeing that, Seo-eun was very surprised and ran in the opposite direction while screaming. This situation is too funny.
I thought my heart was falling a little, but I decided to keep it a secret. I thought the closet was a mock-up, but why would it really open?
We fled in the direction of the kindly arrow, only to pause when we realized that the ghost or rather, the part-time student dressed as a ghost, was no longer chasing us.
Wow. Da-in, its scary but fun, keep going!
Seo Eun was now saying that with her eyes shining while Eun-woo was smiling quietly too since just seeing Seo-euns excitement made happy.
Be careful, the further back we go, the scarier it gets, and you know you cant throw bombs at ghosts, right?
Heh? Im fineThen you know youre not supposed to use magic, right?
I smirked as the two girls walked forward, chatting happily like that.
Well, at least they seem to be having fun. So this is the twenty-something who can giggle at the mere rolling of a fallen leaf.
Soobin, lets go.
I said and looked back at Soobin.
Yes, lets go.
Soobin replied to my words hesitantly and her expression was
Soobin, are you okay?
What? Oh, Im perfectly fine, Da-in, come on.
She was smiling, but her face had somehow lost some of its color. She also seems to be breaking out in a cold sweat.
Maybe shes scared.
She doesnt seem to want to admit it, though, as she tells me shes fine and urges me to move on. This Soobin was a bit different.
I see. Lets go together for now.
I followed her into the depths of the haunted house.
Kaaaaaah!!!
My leg Give me my leg!!!
More and more ghosts appeared, and since this was another paid attraction in an amusement park, there were a lot of them.
At first, I was stunned, but I got used to it, and now I felt like applauding the part-timers for their dedication. Seo-Eun and Eun-Woo were already excited and disappeared to the front.
I Da-in.
Huh?
This was the fourth ghost Id encountered and Soobin, who was quietly coming from behind, called out to me then she grabbed me by the collar.
Come with me.
As she said that she was slightly crying.
Oh, she must have been very scared.
Okay. Lets go together.
I answered her with a wide smile, then walked beside her, closer than before.
With Soobin holding onto my collar with one hand, even though I was embarrassed and the tips of my ears were red.
But the more I enjoy something, the more I have a bad feeling about it, but I guess its just my mood.

At that time Stardus was drumming her fingers on her desk, agitated by something.
Something, something ominous.
Something made her realize she had to act.
