Chapter Title: Super Park Dahye (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Have you ever felt this way in your life?
The feeling where everything in the world flows according to my will, and with a mere gesture, I have everyone groveling at my feet.
Like this.
What a shame, you came all this way for nothing.
I'm not Park Dahye.
The Park Dahye you're looking for... died last night.
I'm Super Park Dahye.
Feeling the tremendous power surging through my entire body,
I lie in bed and sneer at the pathetic humans of the world.
Thinking about it, it's truly pathetic.
Until yesterday, I was trembling in fear.
A powerful villain suddenly appeared!
It was all because of my boyfriend's ex-girlfriend.
The moment she showed up in front of me, there was nothing I could do but run away.
Because I was nothing.
Even though I was freeloading at Seonghyeon's place, our relationship was nothing more than me paying rent.
A gaming friend... isn't in any position to stand up to his ex-girlfriend.
What if Seonghyeon still hasn't gotten over his ex?
If that were the case, it would be a total disaster.
I'd just be a pathetic nobody butting into a lovers' quarrel and making a huge fuss.
The fact that I like Seonghyeon couldn't possibly be an excuse.
So I ran away.
Even at the police station, there was nothing I could do.
All I could do was watch trembling as the villain called for Seonghyeon.
Kim Pokttal, who lived in Billion Saga, was a top ranker who didn't need anyone's help...
But in reality, she becomes the pathetic gamer Park Dahye with no one to turn to for help.
I'm all alone.
After starting to live with Seonghyeon, I was so excited...
I felt like I had finally become someone.
But at the crucial moment, harsh reality crashes down on me.
My resolve to become someone worthy of Seonghyeon crumbles to dust in an instant.
It was a dream so close I could almost touch it while at home,
But now it feels like a distant fantasy.
I wanted to pull a blanket over my head and just disappear.
Then I hear a voice.
[This is Park Dahye's guardian. What's the matter?]
The villain had summoned Seonghyeon, right?
Oh? What the...?
Looks like the villain failed the summon.
I forcibly swallowed back the tears that were about to pour out.
Hearing the villain's cracking voice explode right after made me burst out laughing.
She's making a huge fuss over nothing.
I think that's when it started.
Faint traces of tremendous power began to stir within my formerly weak body.
Seonghyeon ignored the villain like she was nothing and grabbed my hand, leading me home.
Even after getting home, my mind was a mess.
I was incredibly grateful that Seonghyeon took my side...
But approaching Seonghyeon is something I have to do myself.
Now that I realize how far I have to go, I feel completely drained.
I buried my face in the pillow and sobbed my heart out, but then I came out because I didn't want Seonghyeon to worry.
The house was empty.
"Seonghyeon..."
Calling his name echoed hollowly.
He probably... went to his ex.
Seonghyeon is someone overflowing with affection, always checking on me.
The only place he'd abandon me for is his lover.
My head spun, and I couldn't breathe.
I lay down on the floor from the dizziness.
The more I tried to breathe, the dizzier I got; I couldn't do anything.
I might just die like this.
And yet...
For some reason, it felt okay.
The Little Mermaid story came to mind.
A mermaid living underwater, blinded by greed, throws a tantrum to come above water... and turns into sea foam, vanishing.
I should have stayed in Billion Saga.
I had made such a firm resolution in Busan, but what am I doing?
Just because one villain showed up, my resolve crumbled so easily.
Dying and disappearing like this seems fine too.
I close my eyes and let the flow carry me.
And at that moment,
[Dahye!]
Seonghyeon appears before me.
Honestly, I was scared.
What if he's here to say goodbye now?
What if he's colluded with the villain and is abandoning me?
Will I be alone again?
What if I move back to my Billion Saga address and Seonghyeon isn't there?
I'm not a pathetic gamer who can live on games alone.
I can't survive without hearing Seonghyeon's login chime every day at 6 PM.
I finally found a place to belong.
Now I have nowhere to go.
Do you get it?
How I felt when I heard Seonghyeon's words.
[I want you to stay by my side forever. I love you, Dahye.]
From the miraculous moment I met him against odds of billions to one,
My heart and Seonghyeon's have always been one.
Even if meeting Seonghyeon while I was alone was just the world's balance,
Now there's no explaining it.
Probably a major bug.
A ridiculous bug connects my heart to Seonghyeon's, and I end up resenting him for it.
Why make me happy and leave me stomping my feet in anxiety?
Why must I tremble in fear of losing Seonghyeon?
Why did you leave me behind without a word?
Why say it only now?
Seonghyeon, whom I had to approach step by step, is now mine.
I cling to him and pour out my grievances.
I whine about how lonely my life alone has been.
I throw a tantrum about how wronged I've felt.
He's the first family I've ever had.
And now, he loves me too.
I lick the lips I've only ever drooled over, press my skin to his.
I become one with him and spill every word in my heart.
He accepts all my pathetic whining.
What I want, Seonghyeon wants too; what he wants becomes mine.
My lovely Seonghyeon is sleeping by my side right now.
Before, I'd do all sorts of things the moment he fell asleep.
Now, I leisurely gaze at him.
Because I can do those things during the day too.
A tremendous power wells up from deep in my chest.
Gamer Park Dahye!
I sliced through the massive Rosanne I met in Gpex with a single stroke and brained his ex—who he hadn't seen in two years—with a brick.
Maybe... human Park Dahye is invincible?
Maybe training too much in Billion Saga turned me into Superman in real life.
Hehe, just kidding.
I know.
I was always staggering weakly, and all of this was thanks to Seonghyeon...
But now, his achievements are mine too.
Shamelessly riding on his strength, I become a super hero too.
I spend the night admiring Seonghyeon's face until dawn, then get up early to tidy up.
I toss the damp sheets, dress Seonghyeon, and cover him with fresh ones.
I wake up the late-sleeping Seonghyeon with a barrage of kisses to refresh yesterday's memories and see him off to work.
"I'm off."
And I begin my hero activities.
For the peace of our home, I clean, do laundry, and even practice drawing.
But then I lose focus and keep giggling...
And I remember one important fact.
Does it make sense that no one besides me and Seonghyeon knows about this massive event?
Truth is... I want to brag.
Other heroes hide their powers and operate in secret once they get them.
I can't do that.
Like cocky Iron Man, I want to boldly gather reporters and shout, "I am Super Park Dahye!"
Muhahaha!
Good thing I made friends.
💬 Private Chat — System Requesting 1:1 chat with you. — Akahara What's going on? Wasn't it no chat in the morning?? — Me I have something to brag about. — Akahara Whoa... you used it! — Me What?? — Akahara The one I bought you! — Me Lollll I was gonna use it but didn't. I'm dating Seonghyeon now! — System You have been banned from the chat room for repeated use of prohibited words. Kuh... what is this feeling?
I never felt like bragging even after getting good loot or leveling up.
But now I can't hold it in.
I told Ma Baji noona and the guild master too, and it still wasn't enough, so while standing in the guild hall, I told every passing guild member about it.
Oh, right.
And there's more!
Family can't be left out of such joyous news!
I call Seongah unnie.
— Seongah Unnie Oh~ Dahye, what's up! Want to come get your hair done today? — Me Unnie! I'm dating Seonghyeon now! She's so thrilled for me—it feels reassuring!
Hmm... nowhere left to tell now.
Umuhahaha!
Now everyone knows Super Park Dahye's power!
I leap onto the bed with all my might and bury my face in Seonghyeon's pillow!
Mmm... shouldn't have changed the pillowcase.
No scent left.
Still, I roll around imagining it's Seonghyeon.
I feel like I own the world!
But...
As time passes and the excitement fades, reality hits.
I didn't earn my relationship with Seonghyeon through my own power, yet I got so carried away.
This isn't the time to just be thrilled.
There was a saying in the hero world:
Great power comes with great responsibility.
It's true.
Even if Seonghyeon loves me, I'm still holed up in my room.
I agreed to do emoticon freelance work with Aka,
But pocket change like that doesn't make me an adult.
Tomorrow, I'm going to Seonghyeon's company too.
There's a promo event.
I'll cosplay as Rosanne again and draw on an internet broadcast.
I already got the advance payment.
3 million won from past illustrations and this promo prepayment!
Huge money, but it isn't mine yet!
Everything depends on tomorrow's promo going off without a hitch.
Once I clear this hurdle, I'll be one step closer to being worthy of Seonghyeon, right?
And...
Seonghyeon hasn't said it, but May 4th next next week is his birthday.
I want to make it the best birthday of his life.
So...
No room for mistakes!
Super Park Dahye, deploying!
