Irregularity The 'Nightmare Inducing Drug'
Two days after receiving the drug, I kept my eyes peeled at the news. There is a possibility that I wasn’t the only one whom he met that night. There might be others as well who were planning to buy drugs from him. But after keeping tabs on the news, I got nothing.The only thing left to do is to confirm it myself. It was during my part-time job when the person I asked to meet arrived at the shop. I immediately cleared a table to accommodate that person to the best of my abilities.“Leave things in the shop to me and get down to your business. But you better hurry. I don’t know how long I can hold out without your help!”I nodded my head and thanked Mr. Kim for giving me the opportunity. “You’re quite greedy, Ren. I did not expect you to take advantage of Mr. Kim’s kindness.” said Ceri, while tying her blonde hair.Her presence sticks out like a sore thumb. Aside from her beauty, the aura she exude screams nothing but maj
Irregularity Truth Revealed
Although it’s not confirmed yet, the fact that Mr. Lucius’ team called the drug ‘Nightmare Inducing’ is greatly disturbing.The fact that the vials were present in every scene they investigated was almost proof of that claim.No wonder Ceri looked so terrified right after I laid my eyes on her. This is indeed terrifying. If something like a ‘Nightmare Inducing’ drug exists, then we are in a lot of trouble. The statement of that man alone about their stocks selling off fast is disturbing. If that’s indeed the case, then who knows how many people are using those drugs.“This is bad. This is really, really bad,” Ceri rubs her hands and turns to me, “I wasn’t aware that father was dealing with something like this. Ren, if something this big is going on about this city, I can’t even imagine the danger that you’ll be facing.”“I know. I just didn’t expect it to be at this extent.” Ceri, who now managed to calm herself down, reached out to me. “Pleas
Irregularity Dead End
Steppen Glaive, a devoted butler of the Sliver family, has always spent his time to serve with his utmost best. Everyday in every hour of the day, has thought of nothing but to satisfy his masters in any way. Most people, especially his subordinates, thought of him as an eccentric person. Because of that, and his lust for his masters’ satisfaction made his subordinates fear him.He calculated everything to bring utmost satisfaction to his masters all the time up until now, but that all changed in an instant.The guards struggle to open the door to Lucuis’ office. They have tried everything but not to an excessive degree knowing that if they did, Lucius will not take their action kindly.Steppen just stared at the guards, unmoving yet observing everything that transpires before him. “How long will this take? If the master is attacked now, we would be all too late.” he said to himself.Steppen knew it was time for him to take action.
Irregularity Dead End II
The result of continuing Ren’s investigation shook everyone inside the building after reaching the dead end, but they remained hopeful.“Everything connects. From the vials to the mark on the maps where the Irregularity Break occurred.”“It’s not like his information is not right to begin with. It just means that the enemy is good at erasing their tracks. Even the number he provided was thoroughly crafted. Using a dead man’s name, what an incredibly cautious trick to use.”“Looking at these notes, I can’t imagine these are made by a measly high school student from this city. I mean, look! It’s arranged so neatly! And it’s handwritten at that! What if we ask the boss to take that kid under us once he graduates high school? We can’t not have too many hands, right?”“I don’t know if you’re complimenting him or not by calling him ‘measly’. Well, whatever the case, I have to agree that kid is incredible. Not anybody has the guts to do this unless they are willing to bet their lives on it.
Irregularity A Rat
A few days after the investigation was wrapped up and the number of Irregularity Breaks returned to normal. I still can’t wrap my head about the result. We did everything we could to be as stealthy as possible without any chance of leaking the information. Still, we ended up with such a disappointing result. I had my men review everything we might have missed and even after a thorough search, we came out empty handed. “I know this is a far-fetched opinion but there must be a possibility of a rat in our company. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying that one of us was feeding the enemy information. It’s just that it’s impossible for the enemy to be one step ahead of us after everything we’ve done so far! I can’t just get it out of my head!” said one of the investigation team. It’s just as he said. We took measures to make sure that we will not leak any information outside. Even though I’m reluctant to agree, I can’t shake the feeling that we have a rat on our side. “I hate to agree w
Irregularity The Worst Day
Finally, this day finally arrived! My college entrace exam!I can’t express how happy I am that this day finally came. All the preparations I made, all the time I spent studying, was solely for this moment. And now that the time has come, I can’t contain my excitement.“Ren, did you bring everything you need?” ask my mother.Because it was a special occassion, she scheduled her day of exactly on the day of my college entrance exam so that she can take care of me. My father sneaked some pocket money inside my pocket and flashed a smile. He did the exact same thing just like my mother. He scheduled his day off on the same day.“I’ve already prepared everything last night. I don’t think I missed anything.” I told mother.I glanced at father, trying to pull the pocket money he secretly gave me. But before I could take it out, he stopped my hand.“This is the least I can do for everything you’ve done for us, Ren. I will get ver

Sleepover IV: Revisiting Paradise
‘What the hell is going on?’ Is what I want to ask after suddenly falling into a kind of situation where I don’t even know how to deal with. This is the very first time that I’ve slept in the same room with someone of the opposite sex. And it just had to be Ivan’s cousin of all people.Not only that I don’t know how to act in this particular situation, it’s also thanks to the noises they’re making that makes the atmosphere between me and Elishia awkward. Just listening to the busy duo is putting me on the edge. And it’s not just me, I think Elishia feels the same.I turned to look over to her direction, to the bed. And to my surprise, I saw her staring back at me. I immediately turned around as if I saw nothing.Why was she looking at me? Is she perhaps uncomfortable sleeping in the same room with a man? Yes. That must be the reason why.“Elishia, are you asleep?” I asked, softly.There’s a chance that I was just seeing things. After all, we’re all drowsy earlier. She must have falle

Sleepover III
Right after eating, Ivan and Silvia prepared the table in the living room. It was Ren’s first sleepover and since there’s no one to tell them what to do, Ivan prepared everything they needed to have an enjoyable night. The awkward air around Ren and Elishia has finally disappeared and they have become comfortable with each other’s company, good enough to wash the dishes together. “What do you think Ivan is trying to pull?” Elishia wiped the dishes with a dry cloth, “I know I’m his cousin so I should know how his brain operates and I do. But that is before he entered high school,” she turned to him, waiting for his response.“His plans, huh? Ivan can be difficult to figure out sometimes. His mind operates on a rather difficult wavelength, after all. Although I’ve seen some crazy things today, I don’t think he will pull something on the same level.” Ren smiled, surprising Elishia because of his certain level of trust for her cousin.“You trust him that much, huh?” said Elishia.Ren no

Sleepover II
Ren steeled himself as he stood outside Ivan's front door. He had a familiar feeling that something similar to earlier was about to happen. So before that happens, Ren hit the doorbell, one he had not done earlier.Just a few seconds later, the door slightly opened, displaying Ivan's cousin's face sticking out between the space of the door and the wall. The moment she realized it was Ren, she opened the door completely, inviting him in. "So it was you. You should've come in without ringing the doorbell." She walked back. Ivan’s cousin was wearing an apron. So it was not far-fetched to think that she was at the very least working in the kitchen before she opened the door. With that in mind, Ren wondered where his friend could be at this hour."I'm sorry that you had to leave the kitchen to open the door for me. I'm just not fond of the idea of barging into someone else's house as if it were mine." Ren smiled awkwardly.She found Ren's excuse rather amusing, and she let out a chuckle.

Sleepover I
Ren's worry came true when his mother allowed him to have a sleepover at Ivan's place. Although it compromises her son's security, she wanted him to enjoy his life as a teenager. At first, Ren wasn't convinced. He was sure that they'll all be asleep by the time he comes back from his part-time job. To his surprise, his part-time job is suspended for the time being due to the renovations."Weren't you listening the other day.... wait, you left right after your shift was over." said Mr. Kim, scratching his head. "Business has been good for a while now and a lot of customers have been coming lately. So I figured that I need to expand the shop a little bit to cater many customers at the same time. I know that it will be hard with only a few of us. Don't worry, I will look for other part-timers as well."Ren looked lost for a moment. He did not expect to miss such an important announcement. Ren just decided to come early to his part-time job to get away to get a breather for the time being

Accidental Discovery
It's been a few days since I heard that from The Voice's words but I still can't bring myself to enter that world again. There are still a lot of things that I don't know about. And since I am free to enter it whenever I want compared to the 'tutorial', where I was forced to enter, I didn't even consider entering Paradise. For a long time, I wished for my power to be useful but now that it's working properly, I wish it didn't. The experience I had at that time was just surreal, I thought it was reality. After recalling what happened that time, I realized the injuries I've sustained while fighting that goblin in my dreams is also reflected to me in real life. My muscles were sore and I was hurting all over. That mostly contributed to my hesitation to enter Paradise. Not to mention the new power I acquired from the candy unknowingly. [Amplify] I still can't figure out how to use it. The word itself is easy to understand but the method of harnessing that power is still unknown to me

Blossoming Feelings
"How was your first day of school?" my father asked as soon as I got back."It was nice and somewhat new. It's an experience that's completely new to me." I told my father. He smiled and patted my head out of nowhere. It surprised me at first but I didn't mind it. He tends to do that out of nowhere. It's his way of saying 'that's good to hear'."I wasn't expecting you to come to me with that proposal. Surely, it slipped my mind. Your father is thinking about a lot of things nowadays, after all." said father. "Will you be alright?""Yes. The lessons are a little behind compared to the private school here but it's good. The teachers are not slacking off in teaching. The only problem is the students, they don't care about studying at all." I told him."Well, since you're going to the same school as Ren, maybe get to enjoy some competition. For him and you too." I nodded my head. Although I transferred out of a private school after moving here, there wasn't much competition at all. The s

Confusion
Morning classes had already ended and it was time for lunch. I haven’t recovered from the shock since earlier. Thanks to that throughout the entire time after that, I basically ran on autopilot.Until now, I still can’t believe what I’ve seen earlier. Is something like that even possible?I turned to the person sitting beside me, “Hey, Ivan. Is The Voice capable of lying?”“The Voice? I don’t think The Voice is capable of lying at all. There’s not a single news story about The Voice lying, right? Did something happen?” asked Ivan, stuffing his face with his sandwich.“Not really-”“Wait! Before that! I heard that the transfer student is in your class! What’s more is that people say she was the one from back then!”I thought he understood that it was all a misunderstanding so why is he bringing it up now?“Yes, I guess so. But you know it was all a misunderstanding, right? What’s the point of bringing it up now?” I asked.Ivan surprisingly looked calm compared to his usual demeanor. He’
