“Haha, really, this is madness.”
He realized why his sister had disappeared.
Afraid of being alone, afraid that her brother might die like their parents. She went out looking for him, desperate not to lose her last remaining family, just a 7-year-old.
Cheon Shin-woo clenched his teeth and picked up another stone. He had to distract it and escape. If they could run away with all their might, they might survive.
If they survived, he would make up for everything he hadn’t done before.
It was a decision, a determination. Without it, he couldn’t have endured here.
At that moment, the ground shook. The earth roared, and even the monster couldn’t maintain its balance and fell over.
Boom.
A loud noise followed.
“Oh… brother?”
A massive fissure occurred.
“Shin-a… Shin-a, Cheon Shin-woo!”
A blinding white light engulfed the surroundings, completely covering his vision.
The light flashed for a moment.
Then, the earthquake stopped. Split earth, the monster trying to rise again, the ruins of collapsed buildings, and an unpleasant sensation.
Cheon Shin-woo saw it clearly and remembered it. Beyond the gap in the split space, a bright light had risen.
He saw the scene where the light engulfed his 7-year-old sister’s body.
The last small hand reaching out to him.
“…Ha.”
Drip, drop. Raindrops fell. The monster raised its blade-like arm. Cheon Shin-woo stood there, dazed.
“Haha…”
If only the burdensome child had stayed by his side, even if it was a helpless 7-year-old sister.
He had lost his parents on the day the destruction began. He didn’t even know if his relatives were still alive. Friends… are they alive?
He had just lost his last remaining family.
He could no longer find a reason to struggle to survive in this despair.
Drip, drop.
Raindrops beat harshly on the ground. Cheon Shin-woo looked up to the sky.
Yes. If it ends like this, there will be no more need to fear anything, no more need to be wary.
In that moment, facing death.
[Do you want to save the world?]A ray of salvation descended before him.
On the day he awakened, Cheon Shin-woo lost his last remaining family.
Many awakeners hated the monsters. They were all people who had lost families, friends, something precious to those creatures.
Cheon Shin-woo was one of them. He slaughtered the monsters with hatred.
The only reason he survived was just that.
To annihilate the loathsome monsters in this world. There was no other reason or necessity to live.
And so he lived.
As time passed, the world gradually got sorted out.
Research on gates and monsters was conducted.
And then, returnees appeared.
They claimed to have lived in another world.
The system provided various conveniences in sync with humanity’s speed of restoring civilization.
The day Shin-a was swallowed by the rift, Cheon Shin-woo saw a faint figure beyond the rift.
Returnees can come back.
So, his sister Shin-a can come back, too.
Failing to protect his sister once was enough. He eliminated all dangers. He must protect her so that there will be no more risks.
Even if that means not respecting his sister’s will.
Many things changed. Cheon Shin-woo closed his eyes, looking at the translucent red spear floating above his hand.
One failure is enough.
This time, I will protect you properly.
It was a silent promise.
He hoped his sister wouldn’t get involved in dangerous matters and would live comfortably in a safe cage.
#Chapter 2. But I’m an S-Rank?
The sky seen through the clear glass window was clear and blue.
People, tiny as ants, moved around outside the window. They all seemed happy, maybe because of the nice weather.
Starting the seventh day of my not-so-imprisoned life, I feel like I’m dying of boredom.
Yes, I am currently imprisoned.
What happened in the week since it became known that I am Cheon Shin-woo’s younger sister? Nothing at all. Surprisingly, absolutely nothing.
The esteemed ranking number one, without any explanation, left for a foreign country a week ago. Because of the sole reason that it’s dangerous, I’m stuck here, unable to do anything.
I should have realized when Min Yoo-shin, Cheon Shin-woo’s personal secretary, didn’t follow him. That was the beginning of this tedious imprisonment.
“Ugh…”
“Haha, you look even more like a caterpillar today.”
Min Yoo-shin, laughing refreshingly, drank coffee and smiled. Flaunting her freedom. Really annoying.
Unable to stand it, I pleaded.
“Can’t I go outside just for today?”
“Um, no.”
“Just, like, one hour of walking.”
“Nope.”
“Really, just a brief glimpse of a friend’s face, I’ll come right back!”
“Shin-a.”
“Yes!”
“No.”
“…Okay.”
Seeing my rapidly drooping expression, Min Yoo-shin let out an awkward laugh and said,
“Just hold on a little longer. The esteemed ranking number one has made quite a few enemies here and there… Like this recent military deity incident, you never know. Huh? Should I buy you something tasty?”
“…No.”
That’s right. That damned ranking number one had a lot of enemies because of his past actions. The more fans you have, the more haters there are. There were more than a few people grinding their teeth in revenge against Cheon Shin-woo.
And Cheon Shin-woo’s unawakened younger sister? A perfect target.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
