Yuhuina chimed in, “Oh! I’m not coming to school tomorrow either.”

“Why?”

“Just want to rest because I’m not feeling well.”

The leader of Sadaegirl didn’t hesitate to skip school.

Seong Jichan asked Seon Woojin this time, “Didn’t you say you’re not coming to school tomorrow?”

Seon Woojin nodded. At this point, it was unbelievable.

“What’s going on with you?”

“Family gathering.”

Is there a need to skip school for a family gathering? Well, it’s possible.

…While I was about to pass it off as usual, I suddenly remembered the original setting.

‘Wasn’t he the youngest son of a wealthy family?’

All three boys from the Sambae gang came from well-off families… I remember Seon Woojin as the youngest son. But Seon Woojin’s idea of a family gathering might not be the simple, humble feeling I imagine.

If that’s the case, there’s nothing I can do.

“Well, okay. Have a safe trip.”

I casually wrapped up the conversation.

Then I suddenly realized, “So, tomorrow, only Seong Jichan and I are coming to school?” It’s not like Seong Jichan and I will do anything together, but when you think about it, that’s how it turned out.

‘How did it come to this?’
I realized I was feeling depressed. I have to go to school on this golden weekend when everyone else gets to skip. I sighed.

“I don’t want to go to school either.”

“Just skip it.”

No, I can’t. I’m an extra, so I can’t just skip… During the time when I was still a model student before the possession, I didn’t have the courage to skip school like the current scumbags in front of me.

‘Maybe I should pretend to be crazy and skip too.’

After all, it’s not like I’ll live my entire life in this world. I don’t understand why I have to live so cautiously.

“Oh, right. Did you guys hear about this?”

The topic shifted again at Yuhina’s words.

“There’s going to be a festival at our school soon!”

Finally, a student-like story after a long time. The kids began to cheer with excitement.

“Shouldn’t we have a sports day first?”

“I don’t know, maybe?”

“In May, all we do is have fun.”

That’s right. This unique school crammed all the events, including the sports day and festival, into one semester. It was a schedule reflecting the author’s firm determination to finish the original story quickly.

‘When I went to school before the possession, there was no festival.’

What’s a festival? There wasn’t even a sports day.

It was a school where you studied from morning to night. Thanks to that, I did well in college. Cheers for me, who went to such a crazy school.

‘So, it’s my first high school festival.’

It’s been so long since middle school that I can’t remember. It feels like it’s my first school festival ever.

‘I hope it’s fun.’

But what should I do at the school festival?

As if reading my mind, Yuhina said, “Last year, they had a maze. They set up a big maze on the playground.”

What?

“They also had a cosplay cafe!”

What’s that again?

“They even did ‘slave trading’!”

Crazy, do they really do that?

“It’s going to be really fun, right?”

I was momentarily speechless, looking at Yuhina’s sparkling eyes.

I momentarily forgot. This is the tiny world of Inso.

‘Why are they doing slave trading?’

Just in case you’re wondering, slave trading means buying someone’s day through an auction. The person sold becomes a slave for a day and does everything the buyer wants… It was a cliche that occasionally appeared in Inso.

I don’t know if there’s a school that actually does that.

‘It’s sickening.’

What have these children grown up watching? Inso is really harmful to young people.

“Lee Jueun, do you have something you want to do?”

In response to Yuhina’s question, I thought for a moment.

“I… just want something ordinary.”

“Something ordinary? Ugh, that’s boring.”

No, even something ordinary in this world seems interesting…

At this point, I became curious. There’s still one cliche that hasn’t come up yet. Why hasn’t it appeared?

“By any chance, does this school have a band club?”

Yuhina tilted her head in response to my question.

“A band club? I haven’t heard of that…”

What’s going on? The band club is a basic element in Inso.
It was a bit surprising. However, upon further thought, I seemed to understand the reason. If they were to join the band club, either the female lead or the male lead had to do it, but in this novel, both of them were too busy flirting, and there was no time for things like the band club.

‘Well, even if there is a band club, it’s meaningless if the protagonists don’t participate.’

I looked at Sung Jichan with meaningful eyes.

“Anyway, I’m really looking forward to it. I’ve always wanted to participate in the school festival!”

Come to think of it, Yuhina couldn’t fully enjoy school life because she was sick.

“Yeah, I hope it’s fun.”

I silently wished that only minor incidents would happen…

That night.

While washing up and preparing for bed, I heard the sound of rain outside. I looked out the window.

‘Since when has it been raining?’

In the dim night sky, the rain added to the atmosphere. Watching the rain pour as if the sky had opened up made me feel strangely emotional.

‘It’s not even the monsoon season yet.’

It’s not common for it to rain this much. If it continues like this, it might rain until tomorrow.

“Normally, this kind of weather is romantic…”

I unconsciously muttered and hastily covered my mouth.

“Romantic? Why would you say something so dreadful.”

If this downpour is romantic, it only means something ominous will happen later. It must not be romantic at all.

“It’s Saturday, the day we go to school, I hope it clears up.”

Rain, please stop by tomorrow morning.

With that wish, I went to sleep.
