The Main Characters That Only I Know-Chapter 258:

Yoo Young-min thought that he had no equal when it came to the Collector Academy, even though he was too embarrassed to brag about it or talk about it anywhere.

Even though he knew that this realm was not the novel he used to write, but a realm that existed as a separate entity.

The settings he had written while working on his work were surprisingly similar to this realm, without any difference.

What would happen in the academy for the next four years, what kind of questions would come up in the exams, or how the practical tests would be conducted.

Yoo Young-min remembered all of that.

‘If only I had reincarnated as an ordinary extra student, I would have been confident of being the first in practical skills.’

But in the end, he reincarnated as a handyman who worked normally at the academy.

He was even an adult who was already old, so he hardly had anything to do with the academy students.

Yoo Young-min felt sorry that his knowledge became useless.

Who would believe him even if he went around talking about this, and if he did something wrong, there was a possibility that the future events at the academy would change.

He put his regret behind him and endured it.

‘I never thought my knowledge would shine here.’

He felt proud that he was helpful as he watched Seo Sumin, who was checking all the test details he had written down.

Then he felt anxious.

‘But isn’t this a leak?’

How long had it been since he made a vow to himself, and he had already done something that bothered his conscience?

Yoo Young-min wondered if he should tell Seo Sumin to forget it right now, feeling like this was wrong.

No, but he had already told her everything.

Yoo Young-min felt sorry for the students who might fall behind in their grades because of him.

“Um… Heavenly Demon-nim?” 𝗳r𝐞𝐞w𝐞bn𝚘ve𝚕.co𝐦

“Hmm? What is it? And if you’re going to call me, just call me senior.”

“Oh, senior? Um. I just thought about it. No matter how you look at it, isn’t that kind of cheating…?”

At Yoo Young-min’s brave words, Seo Sumin took her eyes off the paper and looked at Yoo Young-min.

As soon as he saw her clear eyes, Yoo Young-min shrank his shoulders.

Seo Sumin chuckled.

“Not fair enough?”

“Uh, um. It’s not cowardly. But still, this is a bit… How should I say it? There might be one or two unavoidable victims…”

“Hmm. I guess it could look like that.”

Seo Sumin understood what Yoo Young-min was trying to say.

‘I thought he only knew how to be careful, but he had some backbone to say what he wanted.’

At first, she didn’t like Yoo Young-min’s attitude, but after teaching him a few things and talking to him while bossing him around, she realized that Yoo Young-min wasn’t a bad person from the root.

He himself was still afraid and couldn’t even look at them properly because of what happened on the first day.

But she had to admit his backbone for saying that this was wrong.

“But still, I can’t help it. I have something I have to do.”

“Something you have to do?”

In fact, Yoo Young-min knew. Seo Sumin was not an ordinary person.

She had a power that made her worthy of being an active collector already.

Was it fair and reasonable for her to be restricted in her activities just because she was not old enough?

It was a topic that Yoo Young-min had to think about carefully, and Seo Sumin had already found an answer.

“I have to enter the Mental Realm as quickly as possible by getting special benefits. In order for me to do my role as your senior and as the third collector of White Flower Management, I need that.”

“That’s…”

Yoo Young-min’s work was only about the four years of the academy.

The protagonist was Kim Joo-hyuk, an ordinary boy. He was now one of the A-rank students. That Kim Joo-hyuk was the protagonist of his novel.

Kim Joo-hyuk and Lee Pyeong-won, Park Min-woo, Seol Jia h and others.

The youth drama content that they experienced various things while doing was all he wrote.

Sometimes there were situations where the Mental Realm went out of control or problems outside the school erupted.

As far as he knew, the realm had always been peaceful.

“Did you really not know?”

Seo Sumin thought that Yoo Young-min was not an ordinary weirdo, but she was amazed by the fact that his knowledge was only focused on strange things.

‘Well, I guess it doesn’t matter if I tell him. That’s why that man brought him here.’

Is this annoying task my responsibility?

Seo Sumin smirked and decided to explain to Yoo Young-min why she was trying to enter the Mental Realm, and what the ultimate goal of White Flower Management was.

“Listen carefully and open your ears wide.”

There were no reports of Unleashed activity since their terror attack was neutralized.

Yu-hyun had ordered Seong Yu-chan to look for their traces, just in case, but even Seong Yu-chan’s information network could not catch their movements.

If even Seong Yu-chan had a hard time finding them, it meant that no ordinary person could find them.

Unleashed was suppressing their activity and hiding more deeply.

‘It’s definitely a good thing, but it’s somehow annoying.’

As if they were retreating one step to advance two steps.

They were surely planning something more carefully in the unseen places, there was no doubt about it.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t be so quiet after coming to Korea.

‘Besides, they blatantly watched me. They must be trying to restrain me as much as possible.’

[Are you overestimating yourself?]

‘I wish I was.’

The problem was that they weren’t.

Unleashed was not a brainless organization that only did terror. They were more orderly and systematic than expected, and their organizational power was also quite high.

It was evident from the results of interrogating the terror suspects who were arrested this time.

They were idiots who didn’t know much. Even when he skimmed through the books they tried to hide, he got nothing.

‘Jun Cheng-woon knows how to use his talents in the right places. And he’s diverting his attention and doing something else somewhere. They know we’re chasing them. They’ll probably do something to lure us in next time.’

[Then what? If you know, you won’t fall for it.]

‘I would dig a trap that I would fall for even if I knew it.’

[How?]

‘Bait.’

[Bait?]

‘Yeah. A very big bait. A bait that makes us bite even if we know it’s a trap.’

[What is it?]

‘Who knows. You’ll find out soon enough.’

Yu-hyun was about to say something more, but he shook his head.

‘It’s something you’ll find out later anyway.’

[Hey! How can you stop talking in the middle! What is the bait!]

‘Nope. I won’t tell you.’

[Hey!]

Yu-hyun ignored Baekryeon’s words and flipped a black mask over his face.

Baekryeon kept yelling at him and asking him questions, but Yu-hyun had already left reality and saw another realm.

[The Eye of Laplace]

Yu-hyun’s right eye, covered by a mask, shone brightly.

No matter what kind of bait the enemy used, and no matter what kind of trap they set.

It was all useless because he could see the future.

He couldn’t see all the possible futures, and he couldn’t even see very far ahead. The information was limited, and he could only see one certain outcome among the countless branches.

But that one crucial piece of information could change the fate.

Eventually, Baekryeon, who had been talking to himself, closed his mouth as he got tired.

‘He’s finally quiet.’

The time for silent meditation came before he knew it. Yu-hyun focused his mind and activated the power of Laplace more strongly.

However, compared to what he had expected, there were hardly any clear scenes that he could see.

‘What’s going on?’

The power of Laplace was a cheat-like ability that could read almost anything that would happen in the future.

The condition was strict, and it consumed a lot of energy to activate it, so Yu-hyun in the past rarely used it unless it was really important, and that was the same even now that he had risen to a much higher level.

But once he decided to activate it, it was also a very reliable skill.

‘But this time, it’s blurry and hard to see.’

The future was opaque, as if there was fog in front of his eyes.

The more he strained his eyes to see, the more it seemed like some kind of force was blocking him from seeing any further.

‘Why can’t I read it? Is there someone in Unleashed who has the power to block that?’

Yu-hyun immediately thought of Jincheongun’s name.

And he was sure that the man had the golden fragment of the Book of Genesis.

‘The golden fragment. That’s what’s blocking me from peeking at his actions.’

Did he also have some faith in that thing?

Yu-hyun smiled slyly as he felt the situation was getting more interesting.

Then, with a loud noise, Yu-hyun’s door opened.

The one who opened the door and came in was Baek Seo-ryeon, who was too flustered to control his emotions and was panting.

“Seo-ryeon? What’s going on? You didn’t even knock. That’s a clear violation of privacy.”

“Yu, Yu-hyun! This is not the time for that! There’s a guest outside!”

“A guest?”

How could Baek Seo-ryeon, who didn’t get surprised by anything, be so panicked by just one guest?

Yu-hyun didn’t even ask who it was before Baek Seo-ryeon said he would prepare to greet the guest and left as quickly as he came in like a wind.

Apparently, someone very impressive had come, so Yu-hyun also got up from his seat.

**

Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia wandered around the Mental Realm when they had nothing to do.

It was important to train on their own, but if they didn’t run on the field regularly, they would lose their sense of reality.

The Mental Realm they entered this time was a Joseon-era village filled with sinister energy.

The village was full of faint fog, and the ground was dead with purple color.

The smell of death pervaded the village.

[We are looking forward to what kind of story you will tell us this time.]

The Divine Spirits who came to watch their performance under Celine’s lead were full of anticipation.

To not disappoint those audiences, the two bravely entered the inside of the village.

There were no survivors.

I heard that the collectors who had entered before to clear this place never came out, and judging by the bones scattered on the street, it seemed like they all died here.

“What on earth is here that made this happen?”

“Whatever it is, it must be dangerous if it killed a level 60 collector.”

And not just one, but five of them.

Whatever the case, this was a place where I could never let my guard down.

Sob sob sob.

Then I heard a girl crying from afar.

“A child’s cry?”

“The direction is, over there.”

Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia headed towards the source of the sound.

It was coming from a half-destroyed tile-roofed house. Passing over the shabby gate full of weeds, they saw a woman in a white dress sobbing on the floor of the house with her back turned to them.

Sob sob sob.

She didn’t react at all to Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia, who were blatantly showing their presence, and continued to cry.

“…It seems like that illusion is looking down on us too much, don’t you think?”

“That’s right. It’s trying to push its cheap act until the end.”

In the center of a dead town with no survivors, what could be more suspicious than a woman crying out loud?

However, even though they thought so, they felt strangely drawn to her.

“This is…”

“Enchantment. The cry itself has a power that shakes the other person’s heart.”

Perhaps the collectors who had entered before had fallen for the enchantment and met their doom.

Bewitchment was a particularly effective skill against the opposite sex.

“Bewitchment, huh. You don’t think I’ll get that as a reward, do you? Hmm. It’s kind of tempting.”

“Stop talking nonsense. Let’s go.”

Kwon Jia said that and threw a dagger from her inventory at the woman in white.

Before the dagger pierced her back, the woman suddenly soared into the sky and dodged it.

“As expected. You’re showing your true colors.”

The woman landed on the roof of a straw house and glared at Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia.

“Ohoho. This time, I’ve got some interesting prey. My bewitchment didn’t work on you.”

The woman was beautiful. Her elegant and somewhat innocent appearance was enough to make anyone want to protect her unknowingly.

If she didn’t have blood on her lips, that is.

Squish.

The woman’s body started to change with a strange sound. Her size grew bigger, and white fur grew all over her body.

Nine large tails swayed behind her back.

She opened her long mouth, still stained with blood, and smiled.

“A mere two of you. You’ll be perfect for a snack after my meal!”

At her arrogant words, Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia exchanged a brief glance and chuckled.

The nine-tailed fox didn’t like their reaction.

“Huh? What’s so funny?”

“Well, just that.”

“We don’t even need to use the three items we prepared in advance.”

Kwon Jia said that and took out three small pouches and dropped them on the ground.

The nine-tailed fox knew what those pouches meant and frowned.

“How dare you show me those things from that bastard?”

Instead of provoking the two people, the nine-tailed fox was provoked by them and showed her anger.

Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia got ready.

As they were about to start fighting seriously.

A message from Yu-hyun came flying to Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia.

“What? Yu-hyun, what did you say?”

“What?”

The content was shocking enough to distract the two people who had an enemy in front of them.

“Military God…”

“That guy, he came?”

The undisputed rank 1 collector in Korea.

Military God Wi Muhyuk.

He visited White Flower Management.
