-----------------------------------------------------------------
As always.
Today, too, the Ark Gallery was peacefully burning.
💬 Ark Gallery — Anonymous Ark is fucked!!! Guidance Committee completely taken!!! Guidance President turned slave, entering Kim Taeyang's dorm every night!!!!! Going to submit resignation!!!!! It was fun, fuck!!!! — Season 7418285 Ark is fucked!!! — Hey hey! What do you mean fucked?! Didn't you see Kim Taeyang got picked as model student?!! — You believe that? 100% manipulated video lol — But I saw Kim Taeyang actually cleaning up shit. I saw it too ㅇㅇ You're Rebel Nam, right? lolololol — Fuck, I really saw it — Hey hey! Student Council President is confirmed slave too!! Can't you tell since they already kissed?! If you're a true loser who's been crushing on Seol Harin, hit agree and fuck off!! Agrees: 273 — Chaebol 3rd Gen Sisters Double Ricebowl ;; Fuck, but did they really kiss? — Seemed like a joke What kind of joke is that? What's the intent? Why doesn't she joke like that with me?? I wanna kiss Seol Harin too??? I wanna be loved too??? — Look at all these loser fucks hitting agree lololol Seol Harin is pretty though…. — She's got a kind heart too. She smiled at me before. That was her laughing at your ugly face. — Ah fuck — (Serious)(Analysis)(Insight) Explaining the Kim Taeyang Model Student Theory. Hit Agree Kim Taeyang is known as a thug, but is he really? His track record boils down to this. Tardiness → None Extortion → None Class → Takes diligent notes from the front row Guidance Committee → Super active Vigilante Squad → Actually doing patrols Pomi → Walks her every day. Picks up poop. Two sows → Looking healthy lately. Feeding them well Basically, aside from not wearing uniform, zero rule violations. Aside from fucking the sows every night, nothing you'd call bad. Thus, Kim Taeyang is indeed a model student. Disagree and you're a sow. — Fr fr lolololol Boomers can't refute so just disagree spam lololol — Yeah!! He really was a model student!! You crazy fucks. Fucking slaves every night is a massive felony -_- — Newbies this year are way too pure ㅜ Hmm.
It's always a mess no matter when I check.
Ark Gallery is bad for mental health, as expected.
I closed the smartphone and briefly reminisced on my daily routine.
Among the first-years, my image seems pretty recovered.
Of course, that's limited to the guys.
'But why can't they even make eye contact normally...?'
For a school life, nothing's really changed.
Classmates still fear and avoid me.
In reality, the only ones who like me are the two sows and Rebel Nam's crew.
I get it.
Showing any favor toward me is basically declaring, "I'm a retard backing a psycho! Ukki-kki!"
Above all, they seem scared because of my image as the guy who steals Constellations.
Not an image—it's fact.
Anyway.
With the Student Council back, Ark is buzzing.
The biggest topic is, predictably, the "Student Council Trials."
Newbies and Guidance Committee members form teams of five to challenge the trials.
Five rooms, five matches.
One person per room only, so party composition is a fun stage.
Best of five.
If you know the strats, it's easy.
As a vet, I quickly settled my team.
Me, Seol Harin, Cloé, Kim An-kyung, and Rebel Nam.
That's the plan.
Rebel Nam was thrilled to hear it.
"Taeyang! I knew you'd pick me!!! I'll give it my all!!!!"
Of course, Rebel Nam's expendable.
Won't even need him.
Was gonna bring Kang Ju-hyuk, but he got exempted from trials.
Somehow joined the Student Council?
So the rest's performance matters more.
Key is Kim An-kyung...!
The second room, "Hall of History," gives random history questions.
In-game, easy to cheat with search, but not IRL.
According to Cloé, Kim An-kyung's a history nerd.
That's why.
I'm here to recruit him.
"Hey, Glasses."
"K-Kim Taeyang...?"
The guy's burning school papers by the dumpster.
"Whatcha doing?"
"Can't you see?! 'Arson'!!! Arson violates school rule Article 5 Section 13, a major crime!! I'm a thug, so I'm committing crimes!!!"
Burning a bit of paper isn't arson...
Plus, thugs don't memorize fine print like that...
Whatever.
He's putting real effort into going delinquent.
Obvious from the awkwardly spiked hair and oversized Hawaiian shirt.
"Hey, Glasses. Cut the bullshit and come to my dorm tonight."
"D-Dorm...?! You finally recognize me as a true thug and inviting me to the wild party?!"
Kim An-kyung's ears are turning red. Probably imagining an orgy or something. It's gym, not orgy! Gym! "Kukuku. What a clown. Just come. Or I'll kill you." "Kukukuku! Hey hey! Like I'd miss it?! Hey!!! "......" No idea why he's mimicking my speech... Tonight. Time for some hardcore re-education...!!
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ Guidance Committee was busy prepping for the "Student Council Trials."
But Kim An-kyung was off doing his mini-arson alone.
He'd quit the Committee.
No need for trials now.
Plus, invited to God of Thugs Kim Taeyang's party.
No doubt it'd be booze, sex, drugs.
'So... I can do it with President Cloé I've always admired...? Kraaaaaah!! Tonight I become a real man!!!!'
Kim An-kyung clutched his pounding chest and headed to Kim Taeyang's dorm,
and joined the hellish gym party.
"One more!"
"Last!!"
"Keep form straight!!"
"Hold scapular depression!!!"
"Core's leaking?!!!!"
"???"
Kim An-kyung, clueless, grabbed the barbell.
Trained till he couldn't lift his arms like an old man with frozen shoulder.
"K-Kim Taeyang... Why punish me like this...? I'm not Sisyphus!!"
"Huh? Punish? What're you on about?!"
"If this ain't punishment, what is?"
"Common sense: true thugs need muscle!!!"
"!"
Then Kim An-kyung got it—Kim Taeyang's deep intent.
'He's trying to make me a true thug...!'
To Guidance Committee, Kim Taeyang's trash thug.
But to thugs, he's God of Gods. God incarnate.
Kim An-kyung was deeply moved by the consideration...!
"Kukuku. Thug training? Kinda proud you decided to become one?"
"Huh?! Shut up and stand!!! Warmup's over!!!"
"...This was warmup?"
"You bastard!!! Think becoming a thug is easy?!!!!"
Kim An-kyung suffered enthusiastically after that too.
Post-workout, Kim Taeyang dragged him to the bustling streets.
"Kim Taeyang. Why here so late?"
"Hey hey! Thugs hunt chicks, duh?!!"
"Hu-Hunting...?!"
Obviously, Kim An-kyung never hunted.
But "thugs hunt" sounded legit.
"Go snag a girl!! No home till you do!!! Got it?!!"
"Kuh...."
Kim An-kyung prowled the night streets for prey.
He had a strategy, even as an awkward talker.
Target girls desperately hunting guys.
Only the dolled-up ones...!
"I have a boyfriend."
"I'm married."
"Got three kids at home."
"Forgot my phone."
"Phone just broke."
"I only use a walkie-talkie."
"I'm a lesbian."
"I'm hermaphrodite."
'Hit me with believable lies!!!!!'
Girls who look like they're out playing, spouting nonsense excuses...!
Painful rejections—even honest ones would be kinder...!!
Full five hours.
Picked only the most promising, but.
50 games, 0 wins, 50 losses...!!!
Kim An-kyung finally collapsed.
"Hey, Kim An-kyung. Failed?"
"Kim Taeyang...? Who's the girls...?"
"Ahh—got bored, just hunted some."
"F-Five of 'em...?!"
Five beauties clinging to Kim Taeyang.
Real-life harem.
Unbelievable sight.
"L-Lucky streak... Snagged a whole group of five at once..."
"Huh? Not a group."
"What? You mean separately picked up each one?!"
"Obviously?"
Had to be shocked here.
Already has a girl, picks up another.
Possible?
Kim An-kyung pondered, then nodded.
"Well, if they're desperate girls out hunting guys, maybe..."
"Huh? Bullshit?! Stole a girl from her boyfriend date, then with her in tow stole another on a date! Stole!! Stole!! Stole more!!!"
"Wh-What...?!"
Girls playfully coquettish with Kim Taeyang.
His story checked out.
'How charming does a guy gotta be to steal a girl mid-boyfriend date, then four more times while already with one...?'
That instant, vision narrowed, went black.
Not just awe for Kim An-kyung.
It was terror akin to death.
This muscle mass before him.
Beyond human.
'Not human...!'
Realizing that, Kim Taeyang loomed infinitely huge.
Couldn't see his face looking up.
Shadowed face gleamed with crimson eyes.
'Different species!! He's a predator...!!!'
Kim An-kyung was prey.
Impending doom anxiety hit.
Skin crawled with danger sense, cold sweat chilled it.
Pupils contracted, hairs stood.
Teeth chattering from shakes.
Wanna run, but body frozen.
Finally, predator's maw opened—
"Hey. Glasses."
"?"
Terror vanished instantly.
Everything back to normal in a flash.
"You're never cut out for thug."
"......"
True.
Kim An-kyung can't be a thug.
Arms too skinny for the band?
50 hunt fails?
Beyond that.
Kim An-kyung born goody-goody.
Lifetime effort won't touch this guy's toes.
Different breed.
"Guess I'm trash who can't even be a thug..."
"Took you this long? Everyone knew but you."
"......"
What now?
Hate going back to Committee.
Don't wanna be a pushover again.
Just die...
How to die least painfully... As he thought—
"But Glasses, you got your own charm."
"My... charm?"
"Something Cloé said—you're scrawny but sharp-minded?"
"President said that?"
"Why would I lie about this? I see it too. Suits you. Elite vibe. Lean into that, might snag a girl or two."
With that, Kim Taeyang left with the girls.
His shout echoed from afar.
"Hey! At least do pushups! Can't band those twigs! Kukuku."
"Band......"
Would've felt like mockery before.
Now, precious advice.
Smooth—
Messed up the spiked hair.
Back to normal felt comforting.
'My own charm... Time to find it...!'
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ The villain who grows even extras.
That's Kim Taeyang...!!
And the madman who snags five girls with boyfriends!!!
That's Kim Taeyang too......!!!
Tested it just in case,
but beach full-set hunting boost is insane!
Now just enjoy with the girls...!
—Or so I thought.
"You. Wondered where you were... Having a good time, I see...?"
Seol Harin appeared suddenly.
Whoosh—!
"Kyaaak!"
Her killing intent scattered the girls.
True heroes dominate with aura alone.
"Hey hey. Misunderstanding."
"Outta nowhere, what's to misunderstand?"
"Strategy to send Kim An-kyung back to Committee..."
"Sure. Got it. Misunderstanding."
Just let it go?
But Seol Harin wasn't the type.
"Since I'll think it's a misunderstanding, I'll crash at your place tonight."
"?"
No, how's that related...?
"Hey! Livestock sleeps in the barn!! Get out to your sty!!!"
"As your slave, I have duty to care for you."
"Never assigned that duty!!!!!"
"Can't stand as gym slave if you waste stamina on nonsense and lose gains."
"Hey!!! Quit obsessing over muscle!!!!!"
"You got the qualifications? You drilled it into me."
Pretty logical...!!!
No counter!!!!!
"Anyway, crashing tonight. Words won't change it."
Seol Harin was unusually firm.
Calm voice, but seething mad.
But.
What if cheat key?
"Fully emancipate you to free citizen?! Huh?!!"
"Then I'll redeclare slavery. Can do it endlessly. Dogeza plus legs and cardio—win-win."
"Hey hey... Hey..."
Sow turns dogeza into workout.
Too absurd, speechless...?
What monster did I create?! Hey!!!
.
.
.
Wait, really staying?
Not same bed, right?
"Good thing bed's big. Plenty for two."
"......"
We're fucked......!!!!
