LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 93
[Miro Tenshi wins haha]
Wow, what the heck, she actually got first place lol
– Why is that? lol
– She wins this?
– The armored vehicle is seriously OP
No kidding, it just got buffed in this patch, but it probably needs a nerf.
[Hmm, surprisingly that’s true]
(Miro profile picture)
Even though half the game is sniping, she still won.
– Just a GOAT…
– Isn’t that just bus driving?
No way.
– Japanese people are really good at this.
No doubt, haha, just like butter.
[Were the nerds always hiding and watching this??]
Damn, you guys should have watched together haha
– For real, haha, it’s a real treat!
– The opponent really responds well.
No doubt, haha, it’s like a match made in heaven.
– Who’s the Japanese person? The immersion is shattered haha.
It’s a Japanese VTuber.
– Is she famous?
– Yeah, super popular.
[Watching Miro from a Japanese perspective is so funny haha]
(Murasaki Tenshi broadcast chat)
These guys can’t understand what Miro is saying but are cheering like crazy for “Shabondi system” haha.
– Haha, the Japanese are cute.
– How do they read that chat?
– What’s with this? The gallery is really in shambles; don’t bring this stuff here!
No way, you can leave haha.
– It’s been ages since the VTubers took over the gallery haha.
[Miro is such a tease]
(Game screenshot)
This is Dr. Bong, who died after getting betrayed by Miro.
Questions are open.
– Hahaha
– I’m so jealous of the drive with Miro.
– Are you an idiot?
No, it just suddenly killed me without any signs.
– You should have honked six times, damn it!
– Damn, I love Loa; do I have to hide that feeling?
– Are you seriously an idiot? haha
– I won thanks to the food you gave me haha.
No joke, haha, that gave me a boost.
[Miro is surprisingly good haha]
Whether it’s Beat Saber or back when I was playing League of Legends, she definitely hit above average today haha.
– So what if she’s good, she doesn’t play.
No kidding, she’s really good at it.
– She sings well too but doesn’t do it.
I wish she would sing a bit more.
– She seems pretty, but she’s never on camera.
That seems to be the biggest issue…
– I really want to see what Miro looks like.
– Oh, her face is seriously a bit rough haha.
– Listening to what the other members say, it sounds like she definitely holds her own.
– Please don’t have any expectations for VTubers.
[Miro controversy;]
Playing three matches then stopping.
– Three matches is indeed controversial.
– Fact: That was a lot for Miro.
If she hadn’t collaborated, it would have been two matches haha.
– Yeah, definitely Tenshi.
[But was that a slip of the tongue at the end?]
(After the game, Miro Tenshi conversation edited)
A Japanese person said to meet next week; does that mean Miro is going to Japan?
– For real? Is she going?
– Will Miro go?
– Only if Tenshi comes, it’s a definite maybe.
– Why would Tenshi come to Joseon?
– They’re leaving their own server to play on the Korean server; isn’t that a bit odd?
– If I go to the party next week, can I see Miro?
– Oh no…
– It’s definitely possible, so you should go!
– Total reality check haha.

Finally, that day has come.
Today is a week since my first dance lesson.
I’m heading for my second lesson.
“Did your stamina improve a bit?”
On the subway heading to the practice room, I nodded at Maho’s question.
“It should be totally different from last week, right?”
“Can you really improve in just a week?”
“I level up quickly because I’m level 1.”
“Is that so?”
Isn’t it that you don’t grow quickly until a certain stage?
Unlike the 30 minutes of Beat Saber I managed to play before, now I can do a whole 40 minutes.
That’s a whopping 33% growth.
That means Kim Soo-hyun is getting stronger every day.
“Then we should be able to practice some dance today.”
“Right? We won’t just do jump ropes, right?”
Since we don’t have much time, I hope we’ll at least learn the basics.
As I got off the subway near the practice room, I could see the members gathered again like last time.
Looks like we’re definitely going to meet every week now.
Anyway, having six girls gathering during a weekday is still eye-catching.
“Hurry up! We’re going to be late at this rate.”
“The subway was delayed a bit today.”
“Don’t you know that you have the easiest access? You don’t have to transfer.”
“Usually, those living closer to home are late.”
“Ugh, you never give up on your excuses.”
By the way, the weather is noticeably warmer; it’s only been a week but look at how much thicker the members’ clothes got.
I also came layered up because Mrs. Jang made a fuss about it being cold outside this morning.
At that moment, Anna, who had been watching me closely, spoke up.
“By the way, Soo-hyun, what’s up with that cardigan?”
“That cardigan? I just picked it up from the wardrobe.”
I thought it looked just right, but did something get on it?
As I looked at the arms to see if Bok-sil’s fur got stuck, Anna pointed at my chest.
“No, if you look closely, it kind of resembles a school emblem; am I wrong? Or is it just that kind of design?”
“Huh? Oh.”
Now that she mentions it, it does kind of look like a school emblem.
But it’s not our school uniform.
Wondering about it, I dug into my memory and I clearly recalled what it was.
“This is a school cardigan.”
“Right? Wow— the design is so good. Did you go to a private school?”
“No, but it’s not the cardigan from the school I attended.”
“Huh?”
More precisely, it’s Hyun-su’s high school cardigan.
I remembered getting it as a reward for spilling a drink.
Wow, that feels like ages ago.
It has been quite some time since I received it during our first meeting.
So it’s not surprising that I’d forget.
“So what? Did you get it somewhere else?”
“No, I got it as a reward.”
“A reward?”
“Oh, I had also forgotten… Let me tell you as we walk.”
So I explained how it came to be as we walked.
And as I expected, the members showed shocked reactions.
“No way, really? What high school is it?”
“Huh? I don’t know that.”
Now that I think about it, I don’t even know what high school Hyun-su goes to.
I should ask him about it sometime.
“So you mean that’s the Slim Gold cardigan?”
“No, it’s mine now.”
“But you wear that around? Take it off!”
“Ah! It’s cold!”
After a bit of a ruckus where Maho borrowed the cardigan for a bit, we eventually arrived in front of the practice room.
“Welcome!”
“Hello!”
As we entered the practice room, I greeted the bright teacher welcoming us and stepped inside for the actual lesson.
“So, Miro, did you practice your jump rope?”
Before getting into the actual lesson, the instructor asked with a hint of concern, but I confidently replied.
“I’ve put in a bone-breaking effort!”
“Pfft!”
Who was that? Who laughed?
I tried to glance around to locate the source, but everyone was holding back their laughter so it was nearly impossible to tell.
Just you wait, I’ll be the one laughing last.
“Oh, then can you keep up with today’s lesson? It won’t be too intense.”
“Don’t worry about me.”
“I’ll trust you this time.”
The dance lesson that followed was indeed not very intense.
After the first class, the teacher must’ve come prepared as she mixed adequate lessons and breaks so that someone like me could finish the class.
Is this a renowned authority in the dance scene?
Not only is she good at dancing, but she teaches well too… clearly, someone renowned in their field is different.
“Haa… Haa.”
Of course, I was exhausted, but I started to think that maybe I could actually dance properly eventually.
“Are you okay?”
As I lay on the practice room floor catching my breath, Anna, who looked mostly fine, came over and handed me a bottle of water.
“Yes….”
Receiving and drinking the water brought a nice feeling of accomplishment.
I managed to pull this off; how long has it been since I’ve felt this kind of physical achievement?
Perhaps it’s the first time since becoming Female Kim Soo-hyun.
“Okay, when you’re done drinking, grab my hand. It’s time to get up.”
“Yeah.”
After holding Anna’s hand and getting up, I thanked the instructor who was tidying up and left the practice room.
Now, thinking about going home to relax, I walked through the hallway, but things seemed noisy up ahead.
Did another team arrive?
Now that I think about it, I know there are two rooms underground; maybe people came to use the other one?
Or it might be the people for the next session of our class.
“Oof, that was tough.”
Well, whoever it is, we’ll just step out, so I leaned my exhausted body against Maho’s back.
“Ah, it’s so hot.”
“I’m tired.”
“So am I…”
Even saying that, Mairu appeared to be in much better shape than me, so I really leaned on her as we headed toward the elevator, but the members in front suddenly stopped.
What’s going on? Did they bump into someone?
Though we could just pass by, why aren’t they moving?
Maho also stopped dead in her tracks, so I was curious and turned to look ahead, and sure enough, it seemed they were facing a group of guys.
By the way… what is this? Are they idols?
Even with their hats pulled down, they look so flashy.
If they’re idols, why are they here instead of in their agency practice room?
I started searching around thinking they could just be a dance team, but then I spotted a familiar face.
Hmm… they really are idols.
And even somewhat famous ones.
I didn’t recognize at first, but the other members…
“Whoa, oh.”
“Can I get your autograph?”
It seems like they recognized them.
They looked quite popular, so there might be a fan among the members.
In that moment, I locked eyes with a member of the idol group who I was the only one to know by name and face.
Oh, no.
I hope they don’t say hi to me.
Just when I wanted to avoid being recognized after the whole incident with Hyun-su, I wanted to get home quickly.
And we’re not even on friendly terms, right?
But…
“Hey? We meet again.”
Shoot…
Looks like Lee Hyun-jun is kind of a friendly type.
“Do you know me?”
Not in particularly, but…
