These Lunatics are Obsessed With Me

Chapter 2

PR: Agentt

Eden widened his eyes in surprise at my words. Then he burst out laughing.

“Haha, what a temper.”

Luckily, Eden didn’t doubt me. Han Yi-jin, who had a shitty personality that did not match his mild appearance, was similar to my original personality.

“What, are you still using that stuff?”

“…Huh?”

Eden’s gaze was fixed over my shoulder. I turned around in a panic and saw the monstrous machine still boasting its presence in the clean room. Come to think of it, I still didn’t know what that thing was. But Eden kept on talking as if he knew that thing very well.

“So you’ve been out of your mind since morning? Stop it, stop it. Do you think you can get an advance to A-rank?”

“…”

“I heard the side effects are no joke. Are you okay? Are you still going to do it?”

I didn’t know what to answer, so I listened to Eden quietly. However, in my head, I analysed his words aloud. Han Yi Jin was a B-rank and had a low-ranking inferiority complex. His desire to become an A-rank was revealed in the novel.

It seems that the ominous black machine was an illegal item that raised the ranks of talented people. Considering the side effects, it seemed to be a very dangerous machine, so that means the real Han Yi Jin…

Could it be that he died because of that machine? It gave me goosbumps. I had to get rid of that thing, right now. 

I glanced at the machine, following Eden’s gaze.

“Don’t worry about it.”

“Humph, I’m sick of worrying about you.”

“I don’t need it.”

When I raised my middle finger, he laughed frivolously again.

Does this person like to be insulted? After all, I never understood crazy people.

Internally, I shook my head and pushed away Eden’s shoulder, which was blocking my path.

“Get out of the way.”

“Where are you going?”

His shoulder was so hard, it didn’t even buldge after what I did to it. I stopped clicking my tongue  and quickly turned my eyes to him. Then I shouted, glaring at Eden, who kept asking the same question.

“I’m going to the bathroom. What’s the problem?!”

Then Eden’s eyes tinged and widened with surprise. Maybe it’s because he’s wearing lenses, but his eyes had a tint of pink in them. How could a man look so fabulous in pink? The sad thing was, instead of looking soft and fragile, he looked manly and handsome. After all, God is unfair.

“Our Yi Jin-ah.”

“…?”

His soft voice gave me goosebumps.

I looked at him and frowned; Eden lowered his head, inching closer. I flinched in surprise at the face that suddenly got near me, and the man chuckled, his red lips grinning.

“The bathroom, isn’t it inside?”

“…!”

“Why do you keep saying weird things? Hmm?”

I didn’t even know there was a bathroom inside because I merely glanced at the layout.. A danger signal rang in my head for Eden’s eyes, which quickly became like the eyes of a beast were scaning me thoroughly.

But at times like this, I had to be calm. Because if I panicked here, everything would be over.

I quickly raised my head, trying to look nonchalant. What I do best in my life is shameless acting.

“So what?”

And this time, I pushed Eden, who approached with both hands.

“Get out of here, you bastard!”

In the novel, Han Yi Jin had a very bad temper. He was only a B-rank, but he was extremely arrogant due to the preferential treatment he received from the guild master for his usable abilities.

So I thought it was natural to do this to Eden, who was ranked higher than me, and I was right. Instead of being surprised or offended by my haughty attitude, Eden rolled his eyes and smiled as if he was in a good mood.

“I love it whenever you curse.”

“Crazy bastard.”

This time, I cursed sincerely. I had chills all over my body.

When I slammed the door right in front of him, I heard laughter escaping his lips as if I was cute.

I frowned and stepped back from the door. Eden didn’t seem to want to force the door open.

“Sigh….”

What should I do? Fuck.

I didn’t expect to find a rank A, talented person monitoring and waiting in front of the room.

Being left alone in my room calmed me down a bit.

He wouldn’t do it voluntarily, so the guild master must had ordered it. But why?

Why was he keeping an eye on Han Yi Jin? Why on earth?

He was constantly asking me where I was going; and if I hadn’t pushed him away, he would had continued to follow me.

Han Yi Jin was not a very important villain. His abilities were worth using, but he was still B-rank. He wasn’t the type to waste such high-ranking manpower.

There must be something I didn’t knew. Standing in frustration, I decided to take a closer look at the room. It’s not like I can run away anytime soon anyways.

Before that, I put the ominous machine at the corner of the room and took out the phone which I roughly tucked into my pants pocket. Thankfully, the phone was unlocked with fingerprint recognition. Thank God.

“…Tsk.”

However, there was no information on his phone. The phone, which had only a few contacts and basic applications installed, looked barren, as if it was usually only used as a means of communication.

I shoved my phone back into my pocket and turned around. My eyes fell on the desk where I found the wallet and cell phone. There were several items on the neat desk, but among them, I noticed a small notebook.

I approached and picked up the notebook. It seemed unlikely for him to put his notebook with important information in such an exposed place.

“Hmm…?”

I had only read the first page, but my brows furrowed.

[Hanseo University Hospital, Sevirins Hospital, Gaha General Hospital…]

I kept flipping through it and found the names of all kinds of public hospitals written in rough handwriting. Some of them were so unrecognizable that it was impossible to tell what kind of hospital they were. The names of the hospitals mentioned ended up being a few pages long. And nothing is written on the back.

“…What.”

Han Yi Jin, was he sick? Why did he write down so many hospital names? I tilted my head, but I couldn’t figure out anything. I put the small notebook back on the desk.

After that, I searched the room and my pockets thoroughly. There were some clothes to wear in the closet, but there was no information to collect.

The last thing left to check now was the bookshelf. I fliped through the books with boring titles without even glancing and shifted my gaze to the shelves.

“Huh?”

Many boxes larger than my palm were stacked on top of each other in one corner. When I reached out for one and took it out, it was a famous brand tablet PC.

However, there were a few new tablet PCs piling up that haven’t even been unboxed. They were the same brand but different versions. It’s probably a collection of new versions.

“What, a tablet PC lover?”

I rubbed my finger across the tablet PC box and blew on the dust collected. He probably liked the brand so much that he bought and collected it and never used it. What a strange fellow.

Feeling a little confused, I scratched my head and put the tablet PC back on the shelf. It looks like such a waste of money.

How could he not use something he bought, and instead puts it on the bookshelf waiting for the next version to come out.

I shook my head at the incomprehensible thought and approached the desk again.

Now that this happened, there was only one thing I had to do now.

The ability of the awakening person had the capacity to guarantee Han Yi Jin’s life even though he was a B-rank.

I, who have possessed this body, should also be able to use it freely.

To do that, I’ll have to call the status window first.

“…”

What should I do to make it appear? Shall I shout it inwardly?

Status window!

Status window?

Status window?

“…”

Nothing happened.

I had no choice but to shout it out loud. There must be Eden outside, so I coughed and called out in a low voice.

“Status window.”

But nothing happened.

“…Status Window?”

I asked around in the air, but still nothing appeared.

What the hell? Doesn’t it automatically appear when I call it?

Don’t tell me I can’t use my abilities because I’m not Han-Yi Jin?

I got scared and called a little louder.

“Status window? Status window?”

Fuck, why aren’t you appearing?

“Shit! Come out! Status window!”

This fucking bitch!

As I stomped my feet and quickly laid down on my stomach for praying to the mighty Gods..

“I’m sorry for calling you a bitch. Please come out now. Status Window?”

But nothing happened.

“Fuck…”

What is the problem?

Was it because his soul was different and his abilities couldn’t be used? That’s a huge problem!

How could I survive even without a B-class abilities? Fear ran down my spine. I fell into despair at the thought of staying alive among those skilled talented people.

Knock knock.

Lost in thought, I turned to the sound of knocking that echoed throughout the room.

As I looked at the door in a daze, I heard a mischievous voice.

“Yi Jin-ah, are you okay? Please open the door.”

“…”

That dog-watcher bastard.

For a moment, I imagined opening the door, and kicking Eden in the shin.

Then my heart thumped and I felt strange. I had no way to explain this strange feeling. After standing like that for a while, I walked a little and quickly opened the door.

“Oh? Yi Jin.”

“…”

When I looked at him with an expressionless face, Eden’s face hardened. As an A-rank talent, his body seemed to react to a faint sense of bloodlust.

I didn’t waste the opportunity and swung my feet, right at Eden’s shin.

Ppak!

“Ackk!”

Eden, unable to endure the pain, collapsed to the ground, holding his knee. And as I looked at him, I heard an emotionless voice, like a news announcer.

[Server connection complete. Do you want to proceed with the synchronization?]

“…What?”

All of a sudden? I heard the firm voice again in confusion.

[Do you want to proceed with synchronization?]

“…”

I don’t know why, but it looks like I’m now connected to a server of talented people in this world.

It was sudden, but that’s what I expected. I nodded happily and shouted.

“Proceed!”

[Synchronization proceeds.]

[Synchronization rate 1%…]

[Synchronization rate 5%…]

“Ugh.”

I listened quietly to the voice in my ear and then lowered my head.

Come to think of it, there was this guy. I hit him out of nowhere and now I was wondering if he would be mad this time? As I watched carefully, Eden quickly raised his head.

“Haa, it feels…so great… Hit me, hit me more.”

“…”

What is he talking about, this crazy bastard?
