2026-10-04 22:18:15The ball was already almost hitting the girl’s head.
Morgan did not have time to think. He stepped forward, spun his body, then raised his leg. The fast-moving ball was immediately kicked away, flying toward the side of the field.
At the same time, Morgan grabbed the girl in front of him and pulled her into his arms.
The girl’s body froze.
For a moment, the atmosphere around them seemed to stop. Several people who witnessed the scene immediately widened their eyes.
“Eh? What is he doing?!”
“He’s hugging Angel!”
“Crazy! He’s really crazy!”
Several men who were not far away even stood up from their seats. The girls who were with Angel immediately covered their mouths in shock.
However, Morgan did not pay attention to any of that. Inside his head, only one thing mattered.
Ding!
[Mission completed.]
Morgan smiled faintly. He finally released the hug. However, before he could do anything, a fist struck him in the face.
Morgan staggered slightly backward, raised his hand, and touched his cheek.
“...”
The girl in front of him clenched her fists while hiding her flushed face. She was clearly nervous, but her voice instead sounded even louder.
“How dare you!”
Morgan frowned.
“You took advantage of me!”
“No, I didn’t—”
“Pervert!” The girl pointed at Morgan with an annoyed expression. “Who gave you permission to hug me?!”
Morgan stared at her.
“I was trying to help you. The ball almost hit your head.”
“Help?” The girl laughed sarcastically. “I could have dodged it myself!”
Morgan fell silent. Thinking about it, she probably could have. However, that was no reason for him to let a ball hit someone in the face.
“I was just—”
“No need for so many excuses.”
Angel folded her arms in front of her chest. Her face was still red, but she tried hard to maintain a fierce expression.
Meanwhile, the voices around them began to grow clearer.
“He’s a freshman, right?”
“Yeah, it seems like it.”
“How dare he hug Angel. Doesn’t he know who Angel is?”
“Even people who have been studying here for a long time know that Angel hates being touched by other people the most.”
“Is that freshman looking for trouble?”
Morgan, who heard the conversation, immediately fell silent. He looked at Angel again. The girl really did seem very easily offended. And if this problem continued, the peaceful campus life he had just imagined could turn into a major problem.
He did not want to become the student known as a pervert. He also did not want to get into trouble with a girl who seemed to have many people around her.
Morgan thought quickly. Then, without really thinking about the consequences, he said, “I… I like you.”
The atmosphere immediately fell silent.
Angel froze while Morgan continued with a serious expression, “That’s why I tried to stop the ball from hitting you. I saw the ball coming, so I immediately moved. Then... I accidentally hugged you.”
Morgan bowed slightly.
“Sorry.”
Several people around them looked at one another, immediately holding back their voices.
“Whoa... He confessed that he likes her?”
“Seriously?”
“He’s really brave. Oh my god, isn’t he afraid?!”
Angel stared at Morgan without saying anything. Her face still looked annoyed, but this time her gaze was slightly different. She watched Morgan’s eyes and saw no sign that he was joking.
There was no lewd gaze or perverted smile.
Morgan really looked serious. Of course, what he truly liked was the peaceful life he now had. However, that was something he could not possibly explain.
Angel finally narrowed her eyes, she moved slightly closer. “What do you like about me?”
Morgan was stunned by the unexpected question. He secretly looked Angel up and down, searching for an answer.
Her face?
Too cliché.
Her hair?
He didn’t know.
Her personality?
He had only just met this girl. Morgan lowered his head slightly, then his gaze stopped at Angel’s feet.
“Your feet are very small.”
Silence. Complete silence.
Several people even looked as though they could not believe what they had just heard.
Angel was also silent for several seconds. Then—Bam! Angel’s foot slammed into Morgan’s stomach, sending him flying several steps backward.
“You pervert!”
Morgan fell onto the ground in a seated position while holding his stomach.
“...I was just answering your question.”
“Who told you to look at my feet?!”
Morgan opened his mouth, but could not find an answer. For the first time in a very long time, he truly did not know how to deal with the situation.

Back then, threats like that were not something that could be taken lightly. However, he also knew that people who lived in peace did not always have the courage to face violence, especially when they had never truly experienced it.Carew was not a fighter. He even seemed to struggle with lifting a college bag that was too heavy, so it was no wonder he was frightened after being threatened by a group of bullies.Morgan sighed.“Alright. We’ll deal with tomorrow’s problems tomorrow.”Carew quickly raised his head.“Huh? But, Bro, they—”“It’s late. I’m tired, and I want to sleep.”Morgan stood up, then pointed at the sofa Carew was sitting on.“Are you staying over or not? If you are, sleep on the sofa. If not, close the door behind you when you leave.”After saying that, he walked toward his bedroom while yawning. He had no interest in spending his night thinking about a group of bullies who might not even be strong enough to make him lift a finger.Besides, there was still time to de

However, just as that thought crossed his mind, the original owner’s memories resurfaced.This person’s name was Carew. His classmate at college, and also the only friend he was fairly close to.Morgan slowly lowered his hands.He looked at the man who was still crying against his chest, then let out a long sigh. It seemed his new life had given him not only an apartment, college friends, and the chance to enjoy delicious food, but also a friend who appeared to have some serious problems.“Alright,” Morgan said, awkwardly patting Carew’s back. “Now stop crying and explain what happened.”Carew lifted his face. Tears still welled up behind his glasses, and his lips trembled as if he had just heard the cruelest question in the world.“Bro... they’re going to kill me!”Morgan fell silent.The remaining smile on his face slowly disappeared.Morgan looked at Carew, who was still clutching his shirt with a pale face. After letting out a long sigh, he finally opened the apartment door and pu

After wandering around for quite a while, he finally stopped at a crowded barbecue stall. The meat grilling over the charcoal sizzled, while the aroma of rendered fat and charred seasoning made his stomach growl again.Morgan immediately sat down in an empty chair.“Sir, I want satay. A lot of it!”The stall owner looked at him for a moment. “How many skewers?”Morgan studied the grill seriously, as if he were making an important decision that would determine the fate of humanity.“Twenty for now.”“Twenty?!”“If I’m still hungry, I’ll order more.”The stall owner fell silent, unsure whether the man in front of him was joking. However, seeing Morgan take out his money without hesitation, he finally nodded and began preparing the order.Not long afterward, a large plate of satay was placed in front of Morgan, along with a bowl of sauce and several side dishes. Morgan’s eyes lit up, and he picked up the first skewer, biting into the meat with great anticipation.Tender. Savory. The seas

Morgan only stopped running after making sure no one was chasing him. He slipped into a narrow alley between two old buildings, then leaned against the cold wall while catching his breath.It was already night, and the streetlights could only illuminate part of the alley’s entrance. The farther inside one went, the darker and quieter it became, enough to make an ordinary person think twice before entering.Morgan let out a long sigh.“Alright, System. I’m ready.”He closed his eyes, putting on a resigned expression like a soldier about to accept his death sentence. After making him run around like a madman, all he could do now was hope the electric shock wouldn’t hurt too much.However, several seconds passed without anything happening.Morgan opened one eye.“...Is that it?”[Ding!][Congratulations, Host!][Mission successfully completed.]Morgan immediately opened both eyes. He stared at the narrow ceiling above the alley with a confused expression, as if hoping someone could expla

Morgan remained silent, trying to figure out how to complete the System’s ridiculous mission without having to do anything excessive.However, his silence only gave Angel an opportunity to move.Angel suddenly stepped on Morgan’s foot, then swiftly twisted her body while swinging her elbow toward the man’s stomach. Her movements were sharp and decisive, as if she genuinely intended to take Morgan down before he could react.Unfortunately, her opponent was not someone who could be dealt with in an ordinary way.Morgan tilted his body slightly to avoid Angel’s elbow, then caught her arm. When Angel tried to use the momentum to break free, Morgan immediately moved behind her and switched their positions in one smooth motion.Before Angel could even realize what had happened, Morgan had already restrained both of her hands behind her back.One of Morgan’s hands locked both of her wrists in place, while his other arm wrapped around Angel’s neck. His fingers only touched her lightly, not ac

Morgan looked at Angel without any complex change of emotion, but it was clear that he was not particularly pleased either.“I disagree, Senior. I was just joking earlier.”Angel stopped and turned around.“What? Joking?”“Yes, I was just joking. So please let me go.”Morgan was still sitting on the chair with both hands tied behind his back. Strangely, there was not even the slightest hint of panic on his face. He even looked far too relaxed for someone who had just been ordered to be thrown into the sea.Angel narrowed her eyes.“Unfortunately, that decision isn’t yours to make.”She stepped closer until she was standing directly in front of Morgan. Then she leaned down slightly and pointed at the man’s face with one finger.“If you haven’t realized it yet, your life and death are now in my hands.”Morgan looked at the finger in front of his face, then slowly shifted his gaze to Angel’s narrowed eyes.“You’re annoying. I have no reason to let you live.”Morgan fell silent. This time
