“BAM!!!’
[YOU HAVE DIED!]
I opened my eyes as the modification window appear.
[YOU HAVE DIED!]
Everything was dark and I alone stood in the abyss.
[Due to your bookmark your skill you will give you the ability return in back 24 hours before your death]
[Due to your death, the skill requirements have met.]
Of couse I knew. There was only one man who can do this.
Flashback
[Chose your fictional character bookmark]
“I am!”
I yelled once again. I knew what character to call out this time.
Yoo Joonghyuk who knew what skill was I about to do, without spare aim at my heart.
“Kim Gong-ja from SSS-Class suicide Hunter!”
[Confirm character! Ready to start!]
“Shit!” Yoo Joonghyuk aim once again.
“Too late!” I said.
And stab! Yoo Joonghyuk without spare aim at my heart.
And thus, I died.
Well, all ends there.
Though, I thought It would only let me use Kim Gong-ja’s (from SSS-Class suicide Hunter) main ability that can steal other ability when he dies, but I didn’t think I could use his first ability that he took that time. Guess I was truly lucky.
(For those who haven’t read it the mahwa yet, the protagonist from SSS-Class suicide Hunter, only had the ability to steal others ability when he died, he later got an ability that made him turn 24 hours back in time. )
A blue screen appear in front of me.
[Copying Incarnation ‘Yoo Joonghyuk’ skill completely]
Then suddenly in front me, A dazzling light, lighted around me. Many cards appeared. The cards had many types of color depending on the rank of the skill that Yoo Joonghyuk had.
Above all many were more gold than silver.
He’s the protagonist all right.
[Creating skill card]
It’s really is the same skill as Kim Gong-ja.
If it’s the same than…
[Select a skill card.]
Then, I have to guess which card is which.
The card’s began to shuffle.
“Ah!”
Oh shit. I forgot about it. Of course the cards has to shuffle.
With my flusterness, I began to catch it.
I randomly grab a card.
[Selection completed]
[Copying skill…]
[Returning from 24 hours…]
I suddenly unconsciously close my eyes.
I woke up from a unfamiliar room.
It turns out I was in a desk sleeping.
I thought I would return in my original world.
I began blinking as I couldn’t comprende the situation.
After admitting the denied truth I only gave a ‘TCH’ sound.
I stood up and began to walk in circles.
I began to think about the later.
I slap my both cheeks, and turn on the lights.
“Okay!”
I began to check the closet on what this body had.
After all, I need to prepare for tomorrow.
After hours of soul searching, I couldn’t find anything useful.
“Nothing useful… Guess, I have to buy things tomorrow.” After all I only have 24 hours left.

In the morning I checked if I can use my stats window. But it was no use.
Though, I do know one thing.
And that’s this body name.
“Ho Min-ji” I read in a out loud voice.
My phone rang and I pick it up.
An angry voice was heard.
“What are you doing Ms. Ho Min-ji?!!! Aren’t you late for-“
“I quit!!” I hung up.
My heart could stop beating. I always wanted to do that type of the thing.
I don’t know what did my body did in her past, whether she work or not or study, but who cares.
I power off my phone and left
.
Well I guess there’s no need to think about that anymore, rather…
I went straight to a shopping center.
I began to search for a bag big enough to carry around, some self defense weapons and some comfortable clothes and sneakers.
I bought the essentials of need of course.
I went to eat all the delicious stands there was.
I act as It was my last day from earth.
It doesn’t even matter if I end up
in debt after all, the peaceful world is soon will come to an end.
Who knows, when we will be able to be like this again.
After that, I wore the sneaker and the comfy clothes that I, just bought and went to a nearby park.
By the time I realized, it was noon.
Time sure flies.
I grab a jar, that I also bought and began to collect insects.
Though, there was one thing I have to say.
My compliment to the kids. Especially, to Lee Gilyoung.
How the fuck can they grab insects!
Talk about disgusting, there so hard to get! Maybe I didn’t buy the equipment but still!!
I ended killing most of them.
“Argh!!!” I whine.
“Why can’t I get a single one!!” I yelled.
“Umm” someone shyly spoke.
I looked up.
I saw a very familiar boy.
He was wearing green hoodie, with white shorts and a black t-shirt.
It’s s no doubt, Lee Gilyoung!!!
I started bawling when I saw him.
He’s soo cute! Talk how innocent he is!! I feel bad for him! To think so many things will happen to him.
“What’s wrong?” he asked.
“It’s nothing” I stop crying.
“You looked sad, so I thought-” He shly said.
What a sweet boy he is.
“I-I wanted a insect, but I can’t capture one.” I said.
“I see…” Lee Gilyoung said.
“If you want you can..”
He grab a insect that was in his net as he completed his frase.
“Keep it” he smile.
“You” I grab his shoulders.
“What a kind kid you are!” I smile as I patted his head.
“Thank you!”
Don’t worry my boy! I’ll protect you!!
Lee Gilyoung stood silent as he suddenly began to cry.
“Eh?! What’s wrong?!” I asked.
“it’s the first time someone thank me…I thought-“
“No need to say!” I didn’t wanted him to finish his sentence.
We both bawled together, until the grasshopper that was in his hands bounce out and began to run.
“Ah!”
We stop crying and began to capture the grasshopper back.
Lee Gilyoung manage to capture the grasshopper with his both hands.
Once he did it we both smile and began to laugh.
.
.
.

Soon Lee Gilyoung began to teach me. how to capture one.
“Why you need Insects, Noona?” he asked.
“Well I-” I gave a quick silence and quickly answer.
“I-I just felt like I wanted some Insects!”
Lee Gilyoung couldn’t help but be confuse.
He looks so cute all confused.
“Then noona, you like insects?”
“Yeah!”
He gave a big smile.
I might die by his cuteness.
With the jars, we capture manys insects.
I had all kinds in my jar.
grasshopper
grasshopper eggs
spiders eggs
Ants
I specially look at the grasshopper if they had eggs inside of them.
I basically spent most of time looking for those.
I found 5 with so much effort though.
“Would you like half?” I asked.
“No need”Lee Gilyoung shook his head.
“With these, are enough.” He show me the 5 grasshopper he had.
Of course among them had the eggs that soon Kim Dokja will kill later.
“After all, you love insect.” Lee Gilyoung said.
I couldn’t help but smile. I patted his head.
The little boy couldn’t help but blush out of embarrasses.
I guess he hasn’t been use to this kind of treatment considering how his life was at this point.
I want to take him away of that misery.
“Lee Gilyoung!! Where are you!” Someone from afar yell.
“Gotta go.” Lee Gilyoung said as he dash.
“Oh!” he stop. “It was fun meeting you!! My name is Lee Gilyoung” he holler as he smiled and dash away.
“You too! Hope we meet soon! ” I yelled back.
He soon disappear from the sunset.
Of course, I knew the sad truth of Lee Gilyoung.
I couldn’t help but cried. I wish I could’ve have took him away. But for the sake for him to meet Kim Dokja I had to only wait.
Now time to go where it all started.
