[Contest 2] Flexible Net Class: I'm Wandering Looking for You Today, Too
[Episode 8] The Laws of Life - (1) [Flexibility]
It was a bit dangerous, but unlike Jimin, who was going through an adjustment period(?), Yeon-i was still crying out of guilt.
유 연
Sigh...sigh...sigh...
김태형
Just to do this... to sit down on someone else's wall and cry... did you come all the way here?
Yeon-i felt unfamiliar with this man, who spoke with a strange voice and looked at her with eyes that seemed to already know her well.
유 연
...!?!?..Who are you...
After crying for a while, she asked Taehyung with a hushed voice and a wary expression.
김태형
me?....
When asked who Taehyung was, he made a forlorn expression and sat down next to Yeon-i, bending down.
김태형
Well... it's kind of hard to explain...
김태형
Um...anyway!..you're really amazing~how can you two be so impatient..tsk tsk
Yeon-i looked at Tae-hyung, who suddenly changed the subject, with a bewildered expression.
김태형
What are you pretending not to know again?
유 연
No... I'm not pretending not to know... What are you talking about... right now!!!..
Taehyung sighed, made a face that said, "Do you really not know?", and then took out an old book and gave it to Yeon-i.
유 연
Uh..what is this...?
김태형
I think it would be better to see it first and then talk about it..?
The book Yeon-i received was covered in a white dust, as if to indicate its deep history.
유 연
..Ugh..dust...huh~!!.....eh??..law of life??
As I blew the dust out with my mouth, the words "Law of Life" appeared.
Yeon-i slowly opened the cover. The book, which had not been opened for a long time, made a creaking sound, waiting for Yeon-i to read it.
유 연
In this world, there exists a predetermined love. This is also called "fate," and it's a moral obligation we all must adhere to. Therefore, I've established a few simple rules, and I hope they will contribute to maintaining world peace.
유 연
W..what is this..
Yeon-i looked at the man with wide eyes, but he was just leaning his head against the wall, using his arms as a pillow, and closing his eyes while Yeon-i read aloud.
유 연
......The rules are as follows:
유 연
Article 1. Every human being has a destined partner, and must spend their entire lives with that partner and love them.
유 연
Article 2. If the destined partner dies before the person, the law-abiding person will be given preference by judgment and allowed to live with the same partner in the next life.
유 연
.....!?!?!??....
김태형
Oh my... Do you get it now.. you idiots.. You could have met again after this life, but how impatient must you be to come out and find each other and mess things up!!... Ugh... Really!!!
유 연
Huh....!?!?!?...
김태형
You guys are basically breaking the law right now... You went to your past life with Park Jimin, and Park Jimin went to your future life, so of course, all of time and space are being distorted...
유 연
..........who on earth are you that you know so well?? What kind of person are you? No, are you even a person?
김태형
..nice to meet you. I'm Kim Taehyung, who will be managing your life from now on.
유 연
..you're managing my..life??..then..Jimin oppa..is..
김태형
You're quick-witted.. Park Jimin, that bastard, our manager will be visiting you soon.
유 연
...Where are we?
김태형
That's...Kim N..Hap!! (Shut your mouth)...No, keep it confidential!!!!
유 연
By the way... I... what should we do??
김태형
We should all go back to our seats.
유 연
A...then we can't meet!!!!!
김태형
If one of you dies and wakes up with your memories lost, you'll automatically meet in the next life, but you won't remember each other... Do you want that??
유 연
So what!!!!...We won't be able to meet like this anyway!!!!!!!
김태형
Ha... You still don't know... It's not so much that we can't meet each other, but that we can't recognize each other even when we're in front of each other... and that we can't even hug each other... How painful, lonely, and painful it is...
김태형
Okay....just read what you were reading....
Taehyung's face, which was filled with a sudden anger and then a quick regret, seemed to be filled with an inexplicable sadness.
유 연
.....Article 3. The order of space and time must be maintained, and if this is violated, reincarnation is impossible.....!?!??!
김태형
That's why I came...
Taehyung suddenly grabbed Yeon-i's wrist, folded her sleeve, and looked at the four red letters on the flexible net and said,
김태형
This... you have to be careful...
유 연
M...What are you careful about?
Yeon-i asked, flinching in surprise.
김태형
You never know when this light will disappear... If you lose it, you might be trapped here... in your past life... so you have to be careful...
Yeon-i nodded and was about to turn the next page of the book when she suddenly saw Tae-hyung's arm quickly snatching the book away.
유 연
....!?!?
'Booooook'
Taehyung's expression was clearly flustered, and he almost ripped the last page of the book apart.
유 연
W...what is this!!!! Why are you tearing it up when I haven't even finished reading it!!!!!
김태형
Ah..hahahaha I think this is just..a kind of notepad..why is it always at the end of the book to write notes??..haha..
김태형
A... By the way, hurry up and go back to the palace!!! It's already almost 6 in the morning!!
유 연
....Why..Why!!!
김태형
I told you not to distort space and time. You have to act like you were living here before.
Before Taehyung could even finish speaking, he pushed Yeon-i's back and hid the torn paper behind his back.
Yeon-i looked back, and Tae-hyung smiled at her and kept telling her to hurry up and go.
김태형
Ha...shit...I was scared because I thought I'd get caught...
Taehyung crumpled the paper with all his might in his fist and threw it far away.
The piece of paper thrown at Taehyung wasn't just a memo pad. It contained the last remaining clauses of the Law of Life.
Taehyung felt the blue sky turning hazy and foggy, and it was because of the tears that were welling up in his eyes.
김태형
Sigh...fuck...why am I crying like an idiot.
(The Laws of Life) Article 4: Rejecting fate and seeking another partner is a clear violation of the law. Love is defined by just two letters, and adding any other letter before it is also illegal.
Sentence and Punishment: The offender rejects fate and becomes the manager of the life of the person he has entrusted to his heart.
That's right. Taehyung, who appeared before Yeon-i, was a criminal who rejected fate and added the word "pair" to love.
With a mind like a time bomb...
