ReLife Player

[Messy Snow White].

By the time the Maronia Knights arrived, it was all over.

When the players arrived at the scene, they had to question their ears when they heard that the children had defeated the goblins.

Or that the kindergarten teacher had lost her mind after seeing the monster.

If the mana stone had not been discovered at the scene, he would have almost put the teacher with the nickname Tayo in a mental hospital.

«You’re telling me a kid actually killed a goblin?»

«…Yes, didn’t I say so?»

Mr. Tayo, being examined on crutches, was honestly incredulous.

A 7-year-old child defeated a goblin.

<Until End of the Century Destruction>, was a common fantasy novel setting where children could defeat goblins by joining forces.

However, in this world of monsters, goblins were strictly seventh-ranked monsters.

Of course, since the goblins weren’t swarming, they could be treated as the eighth level, but it didn’t make sense that a child, who should be under the care of his parents, would kill a goblin.

If the rescued Eunhyeok and Hayang hadn’t mentioned that Eunha had killed the goblins, no one would have known the reason for their disappearance.

«And the magic stone found near the staff room…?»

The only goblin mentioned by the children who claimed to have been directly attacked was the one on the playground.

However, the other one of the two reported was found near the staff room with a magic stone.

The player who had to file the report with the higher-ups was worried that once again, nonsense would come out of Ms. Tayo’s mouth.

«I’m not well aware of that….»

Mr. Tayo had never heard of the gemstone found near the staff room.

Eventually, the Maronia player decided to meet the kid who claimed to have defeated the goblin.

«Did you really defeat it?»

«…The monster was covered in wounds, and after a few blows, it disappeared.»

What nonsense.

The player held back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Monsters born from omnipresent mana cannot be destroyed by casual attacks. You had to attack the core of the monster, use a mana-impregnated weapon, or otherwise deal physical damage to it.

No matter how wounded the goblin was, it wasn’t going to die from a child’s attack.

But what more could you ask for from a 7-year-old?

The player couldn’t bite his tongue against the evasive child who said he didn’t know what to say.

«So what about the goblins in the staff room hallway?»

«Didn’t one of them get away?»

The kid asked as if it was the first time he’d heard of it.

Yeah, it’s hard to believe they took down one, but two?.

«The other one was found near the staff room with a magic stone.»

«Yeah. I wonder if the other goblin killed it? They didn’t look like they were getting along.»

«Haha, yeah…, I see.»

What to write on the police report.

The player swallowed bitterly and ended the investigation.

The story spread throughout Seongbuk-gu and the surrounding neighborhoods. The mayor of the city visited Doan Kindergarten to express his condolences and assure them that he would do his best for their welfare.

Eunha received a brave child award from the mayor.

«Haha….»

Applause rang out everywhere.

After receiving the award from the mayor, Eunha let out a squeezed smile.

Naturally, Eunha was scolded by his parents for his reckless behavior. He even had to submit a reflection paper.

Haaa, it’s hard to live.

☆

The 7-year-old’s story also ended like that.

[Once upon a time, there lived a fair and pretty Snow White, who was loved by the seven dwarfs who lived in the forest because of her kind heart].

The Evergreen class were having their final recital at the Arirang Art Hall.

At first, the recital was canceled due to the goblin attack, but the parents suggested that the children should have one last memory of kindergarten, so the recital was held.

This time, the children chose to perform the Snow White play.

Unbeknownst to the class, they were divided into three factions, but the goblin attack brought them together.

This allowed them to prepare for the play without any discord.

«Captain! Captain! What can I do? I can’t remember any of my lines!»

«…Come on. You only have one line, ‘That’s right, you can’t eat it!»

«Ah, that’s it! You’re the boss, you remembered all the lines.»

From that day on, Eunhyeok followed Eunha around so closely, there was no way the kids could not have gotten along.

Haaa.

Eunha sighed when he saw Eunhyuk smiling in his dwarf hat.

It was really since that day.

The Eunhyeok, who had been arguing with him, was gone, and when Eunha was there he following him around.

From that day on, Eunhyeok was impressed by something and started calling Eun-ha «Brave! Warrior!» and Eunha had to live with the shouts of «Oh warrior!» from the kindergarten children.

Eunha tried to tell them not to call him «brave» because it made him feel uncomfortable, but Eunhyuk wouldn’t listen.

The title he finally compromised on was ‘Captain’. This ideal showed Eunhyeok’s determination that he would not back down even if he died.

People change overnight.

Have he regressed too? Haaa, that’s impossible.

Holding back the words that came out of his mouth, Eunha patted Eunhyeok on the back.

«It’s your turn. Do well. Go upstairs.»

«Ehehe. Boss, I’ll show you how good I am at acting!»

Eunhyuk’s role was one of the seven dwarves.

When deciding on the role, the children were divided. The boys, who still followed Eunhyuk, insisted that he was fit to be a prince. The girls, on the other hand, insisted that Eunha, who had saved Hayang, should be the prince.

I wonder if they’re trying to pick sides again.

Popcorn is urgently needed.

Eunha, who was trying to watch from afar, could only kneel and despair at Eunhyeok’s interruption.

‘Our captain should be the coolest one here! It’s a bit unfair that he’s a prince instead of a warrior, but….’

Eunha, who was secretly rooting for Eunhyuk to take on the role of prince, suspected that this was an advanced backstabbing.

«Princess. Look at this apple. How bright red it is, wouldn’t it be delicious?»

«Oh my. It’s so pretty, and I bet the apple is delicious.»

On the stage, the play was in full swing.

Minji, dressed as a witch, was giving a great performance, even ad-libbing. Dressed in black robes and giggling sinisterly, she was a wicked witch.

Yes, that’s right, Minji, she’s perfect for a villainous role.

On the other hand, Hayang’s acting as Snow White was mediocre.

However, her visuals were enough to make up for it.

«Princess, that apple must be poisoned!»

«You shouldn’t eat anything given to you by a stranger!»

«That’s right, Princess!»

Snow White reaches for the apple offered by the witch.

Each of the dwarves raised their voices and insisted that she shouldn’t eat the apple.

Now it was Eunhyuk’s turn.

«That’s right! Eat! Don’t!»

Haaa, really.

He raps? Was he trying to be a rapper instead of a player?

Eunha, who was watching Eunhyuk’s performance from the backstage, had his tongue stuck out.

What’s so hard about that one line?

Eunhyeok’s acting was so bad that he had to shorten and shorten his lines, but he still made a mistake at the talent show.

It was no wonder that the audience burst into laughter.

The kids on stage were confused as Eunhyeok, the dwarf who would have been buried in silence, was illuminated.

At this point, it was up to Hayang to take control of the situation and eat the apple offered by the witch.

«Eat this and get away!»

Minji was weak in quick thinking. The bewildered witch threw the apple from the basket at Eunhyuk, who was fumbling with it.

Oh, please. Did we hear the god of comedy today?

The apple that Minji threw went straight into Eun-hyuk’s open mouth. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

«Eunhyuk is dead!»

The dwarves panicked.

The stage became chaotic.

[…oh, the dwarf had eaten the poisoned apple on behalf of the princess.

But the queen did not give up: she forced the remaining apple to Snow White].

I could see Mr. Tayo on his crutches trying to defuse the situation.

«You too, eat this and get away!»

«Uh, mother! How can my mother be here….»

«Who’s your mother, I’m your stepmother, I told you not to call me like that!»

It was a mess.

It was chaos.

The commentary was cut off and the curtain was lowered, as Tayo-sensei decided he couldn’t take it anymore.

In the end, the audience couldn’t help but laugh at the sight of Eunhyeok, the dwarf, being carried away with an apple in his mouth; Minji, the witch, who threw away all her dignity when her identity was discovered; and Hayang, the snow-white princess, who somehow managed to bite into a poisonous apple and fall into a deep sleep.

«Eunha, your teacher only believes in Eunha.»

«Haha….»

Mr. Tayo’s eyes were burning as he held onto his crutches and ran towards them.

«We have a bet on which class is the best today.»

To show it to the teacher.

Eunha couldn’t speak because of being dumbfounded.

Regardless, Mr. Tayo tapped him on the shoulder and asked him to finish.

«This apple is delicious.»

«Are you saying that now! You ruined it for me!»

«You’re the one who threw the apple!»

It was only natural that Minji and Eunhyuk would argue. Hayang, stuck between them, tried to stop them, but it wasn’t enough.

Haaa

Then the final stage began.

On stage, Princess Hayang is lying on a bed surrounded by flowers.

Eunha looked at the people watching him.

It was his first time performing a play in front of people. He had fought in countless battles, but this was his first time performing in a play, so he had every right to be nervous.

Is that him?

He looks scary.

He killed a monster? How is that possible?

The mayor himself gave him a prize.

Tsk, even so, a kid killing a monster….

The looks from the adults in the audience were filled with envy and fear.

It was a look I had received countless times before my regression.

I used to be this person.

The moment I felt their eyes on me, my head went cold.

I was new to theater, but not to the stage.

This stage was a battlefield.

The gazes looking at him were the gazes of a monster that needed to slice and dice.

No Eunha, the player who could die and not die.

Once again, he-.

«Woahh! here! look! Woah! litltle! bro! No Eunha! Eunha, it’s my brother~!»

«My son, woah! He’s so handsome! who does he take after?!»

«Eunha~ Mommy’s here!»

«Ooh! waa! Woohoo!»

«Oh, Fantastic! Eunha is the coolest one today~!»

«Good luck!»

Euna shouts, waving a placard she made.

Father shouting with his camcorder.

Mother waving the hardest.

Eunae clapping and babbling.

Julieta, who whistles to attract attention.

Bruno cheering with a thumbs up and a voice full of mana.

These people.

A smile blossomed on his face that had been chillingly frozen.

When he saw them, they waved again.

It didn’t feel like someone was grabbing his ankles and pulling him down.

The stares were no longer a concern.

Eunha stepped onto the stage to end the play.

«I can’t believe there’s someone so beautiful in this world.»

After reciting his prepared lines, Eunha stroked White’s hair. He slowly brought his lips to her forehead.

Kyaa~!

No Eun-ha is awesome!

Hayang’s eyelids twitched.

Slowly opening her eyes, she smiled widely at the man in front of her.

A song began to play, and the children of the Evergreen Pine class danced onto the stage. They held hands, danced, and sang.

«Hey, let’s do the Henggarae dance, Henggarae!»

«Everyone, come together~!»

The curtain hadn’t even fallen yet, and Eunhyuk, who was short-tempered, called the kids together. The children, who had been plotting backstage, rushed in and lifted Eunha into the air.

If it weren’t for me, they would have gotten hurt!

There was no way kindergarten kids could do the Henggarae dance properly. As exhausted children started to collapse, Eunhyeok had to fall down from the air.

«Hahahaha!»

Eunhyuk laughed out loud among the children.

Eunha had to wonder if Eunhyuk had found a new way to bully them.

«Eunha, that was awesome! Me too! Me too! Give me a kiss!»

«Woo~ha! Woo~ha!»

Eunha, who had come down from the audience, waited for Euna to raise her bangs and stuck her forehead out. Eunha smiled awkwardly and kissed her forehead as the girls responded.

He didn’t forget to give Eunae a kiss as well.

«Wow, my boy is so good!»

The father suddenly gives him a ride.

Eunha clung to his father and said, «Of course. Whose son is this?» while he floated him up.

«Eunha.»

«Yes mom?»

«Have you found what you want to do now?»

My mother smiles softly.

She’d said this last year, too.

Pondering for a moment, Eunha looked at the children playing and shrugged.

«I don’t know.»

I still don’t know what to do.

I just want to be happy.

I don’t want to let anyone ruin that.

So,

«─Well, maybe I’ll be a warrior.»

Eunha whispered to himself and looked towards a faraway mountain, uttering words that even made him own self feel strange.

«Yeah. We should do whatever we want, Eunha. Mommy will….»

I’ll support you.

I didn’t need to hear the rest.

Kindergarten is over.

It was an eventful life.

I have no regrets. Every day has become a pleasant memory.

Next year, I will be in elementary school. May next year be full of fun.

Eunha jumped into the midst of the children, looking forward to the future that had changed from that day.

Forgetting that there were no dreams or hopes in this world.
