Chapter Title: I Kept My Chastity
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Even though I'd sworn never to commit the original sin of lying again.
"H-Hey, wait a second! What are you doing?!"
"What do you think? Reporting him... Are you crazy? Showing a girl... that...?!"
"No, our pastor isn't like that!"
"You're being gaslit! Just wait a bit, I'll report this sex offender right—"
I couldn't turn the pastor who raised and cared for me into a sex offender just to keep my vow.
"It was a joke! A joke! No way the pastor actually did that, right?"
"...It was a joke?"
"I'd stake my parents on it."
"..."
"You're not thinking 'Doesn't she have parents to stake?' are you?"
"Y-You crazy bitch! What the hell are you saying?!"
From my perspective, I'd only spoken the truth, but Suha looked ready to report the pastor any second.
"So you've been living there since you were little?"
"Yeah, pretty much."
After fending off the guys trying to hit on me and protecting the pastor's honor, things were surprisingly uneventful.
"These guys have some real balls, it's ridiculous. Looks to me like they've abandoned Ias and are making a new game."
"Nah, that's giving them too much credit. You think they're that diligent?"
"...Maybe?"
Just chatting,
"Hey, put that down for a sec. I said I was done drinking."
"Aww~ Min-ji~ It's no fun drinking alone like a loser~ Just one more with me~"
"That's the sixth time you've said that."
drinking,
"Urk."
"Wow, you really can't hold your liquor."
"I told you I can't...!"
chatting,
"Zzz..."
sleeping.
...Huh?
Slept...?
"Ughhh..."
The moment I regained consciousness, an animal-like groan escaped my lips.
My body felt like a lump of lead, and my throat was parched.
"Urp..."
All because I'd dared to drink all night despite my weak tolerance.
My heart pounded like someone was using it as a punching bag,
and my stomach churned as if last night's food would spew out any moment.
At least my head was intact... but no, dizziness kept interrupting my thoughts.
Even my first night shift wasn't this bad.
This is so unfair. I wasn't going to drink originally.
"Uwoorp...!"
This was all Suha's fault.
If she hadn't kept refilling my glass saying "This is really the last one!" over and over, I wouldn't be like this.
"Muuuugh..."
Feeling like I might puke any second, I hurried to find some water.
No one in the world wants to see popcorn, kimchi, onions, garlic, fish, and meat all mixed in stomach acid.
'If I do puke... gotta take a pic...'
Never know when it'd come in handy.
Not tactical nuke level, but at least hand grenade power.
Stumbling around imagining the might of corn-stomach-acid-kimchi-nabe, I searched for water.
"Huh?"
Was it the hangover?
I should've noticed the second I opened my eyes, but only now did it hit me.
"Where the hell is this?"
Unfamiliar ceiling.
The kind you see in webnovel intros.
My home ceiling was half-peeled from the previous owner's failed reno attempt.
Not this clean, sleek perfection.
As the hangover pain dulled a bit, I could look around.
Unfamiliar room layout, strange furniture.
Yeah, in one word, right now I was—
"Not... in my house...?"

A thin sheet medium inserted into cameras or movie projectors for recording.
In the past, before digital tech took over, films were spooled long and projected.
How vital were they? If even one part got damaged or cut—
the movie screen would freeze or vanish instantly.
Now in the digital age, we don't project films anymore,
but the phrase "film cut out" survives.
When drunk and memories blur, like a scene from life sliced away.
People call those moments when the film cuts out.
"...Where am I?"
Yeah, like right now.
Obviously, I hadn't isekai'd or been kidnapped.
No way something that unrealistic happens,
and with me broke, kidnappers get nothing but this body.
No sane psycho would want this body.
...Or so I thought,
'Wait a sec.'
I'm not Lee Min-uk right now.
In Lee Min-ji's body... there might actually be demand. A lot.
The thought hit, and reflexively, I reached down to check my lower half.
"Phew..."
Thank god, chastity intact.
Overreacting? Maybe, but unavoidable.
This body was mine now, but I wouldn't treat it carelessly.
Became Min-ji without reason; who knows when I'd switch back to Min-uk.
At least when Min-ji returns, she'd resume her normal life without issue.
Of course, assuming she lived normally before.
[Why no face reveal? You'd blow up for sure.]
[Uh, that...]
Reason I never showed my face on stream.
Anyway.
Not isekai, not kidnapped—so where was this?
The answer was simple.
"Suha's place, duh..."
As hangover eased and thoughts cleared, certainty set in.
This was Suha's house.
[Left you sleeping since you wouldn't wake.
Water bottle on desk, drink when up
I'm streaming at 3PM so DON'T come into booth!
Can leave without saying hi, rest then go
Suha]
Post-it on the vanity confirmed it.
[PM: 3:15]
Phone said 3PM already.
Per note, Suha's stream started.
"Should say bye at least..."
Can't mooch forever; time to head home.
But she dragged my drunk ass here and let me crash—feels rude to ghost.
[LIVE ON: Hangover.. ughhhh...]
Curious what Suha was up to, checked her stream—
"Seriously, I drank with a friend! As if I have a boyfriend."
Saw Suha's face, tired from hangover but less than me.
— Viewer She's turning black... — Viewer (Boy)friend — Viewer Yeah sure~ — Viewer Believe you so 24hr no-pants stream go "24hr no-pants? Can't you see the dark circles under my eyes from this hangover?!"
— Viewer Don't come closer — Viewer Ugh get that auntie face away — Viewer No gross pics ; — Viewer Too close scary "Hey! Why am I an auntie?! Mid-20s is young!"
— Viewer Scratch — Viewer Scratched lol — Viewer Mid-20s isn't auntie but Suha is "Wow, doesn't she ever get tired?"
Suha powering through her stream with viewer WWE as always.
Hard to believe she partied till dawn.
I only drank half as much and can barely stand.
"I warned you? 30 min ban, reflect!"
— Viewer No save me — Viewer Culprit is suha... — Viewer Media suppression!!! "Guess I'll PVP practice today... Saintess unnie's in jail, Eder oppa's traveling... gotta grind solo now."
— Viewer Not bad — Viewer Basics worth solo practice yeah — Viewer But you're in bad shape, ok?? — Viewer O Staring blankly at Suha's stream—
"Wait... she's streaming from inside this house right now."
A fun idea popped up.
"Heh heh heh..."
[ID: tjdsuskdltm123]
[PW: ************]
My hands already on phone, logging into the platform.
Not Saintess account, but Pure Advisor for backseat gaming other streams.
Chance to see Suha's reaction live? Can't miss that.
"Hmm..."
Of course, I hesitated.
Suha was big-hearted—forgave my lie yesterday, switched to casual speech.
Dragged drunk antisocial me home, let me crash.
Pranking her like this...
Even with my troll blood, felt a bit much.
Pure Advisor donated 1,000 won! Opponent full combo landed, skills not off CD, why wake-up just now? Hmm... just thought it, yeah.
Doesn't mean I won't.
— Viewer Who tf lololol — Viewer Wasn't she in jail?? — Viewer Saintess lol "F-Follow-up was dangerous so— ...Huh?"
Confirmed Suha's panicked face on screen,
then slowly opened the soundproof booth door—no audio leak.
Screeech
Inside the booth—
"...Huh?"
"Huh?"
Suha staring with 'What're you doing there??' eyes, at her cam.
And me—
"Hehe."
Throwing a V-sign, grinning at her.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ One thing I forgot—
Pure Advisor donated 1,000 won! No idea what you're saying just keep gaming ㅎ bye Seeing reactions live meant
"Get over here! Trying to ruin my stream again?! I'm not letting you off today!"
"Aaaah! Why are you like this all of a sudden!"
She could physically retaliate too...
"So... today, we'll be streaming with Saintess."
"...Hi."
— Viewer Suha sweet revenge lololololol — Viewer Saintess next to her?? — Viewer Yeah no face reveal so off-cam — Viewer Dragged in hilarious lol — Viewer In irl Suha wins memo — Viewer IRL meetings are the way Suha?
