Chapter 4: This is highly regarded by the black sphere.

Earlier this year, Chayeon had worked as a student assistant in the library as soon as he entered university.

If not for the sudden change in circumstances, he would have been working in the library again in the new semester that had just begun.

One of the people he had become close to while working in the library was the librarian.

In addition to the student assistants, the library at Chayeon’s university had librarians working there, one of whom was the aforementioned librarian, Jeong Seohee.

Chayeon called her ‘Librarian Noona’.

Chayeon was now in that ‘Librarian Noona’s’ bedroom.

“Don’t just stand there blankly, why don’t you sit down?”

Seohee had guided Chayeon to a luxurious residential area within the huge grounds connected to the rear of the building, where several magnificent mansions that could only be seen in movies or photographs were lined up.

Chayeon had entered the largest and most expensive-looking of them.

He was dumbfounded, but first, there was a problem to be solved.

“Librarian Noona, I have a friend who came with me. We got separated, and he might be in a dangerous situation.”

He had been rescued by an unexpected person, but Namyeon might be in a dangerous situation.

“The friend who came with you, are you talking about the handsome blond guy with piercings?”

“Yes, that’s right. How did you know?”

Had she been watching them since before they were separated?

“You can rest assured about that friend. He doesn’t seem to have any particular problems.”

Seohee looked up at the empty air as if she were looking at a distant mountain and said that.

“It seems he entered the academy before you.”

Many questions arose.

How did Seohee know that?

And if that was true, how did Namyeon enter the academy safely?

His thoughts became complicated, but he soon erased them.

Complex things were not to his taste.

He decided to trust her for now.

“By the way, I’m asking to make sure, but you’re definitely Chayeon, right?”

Seohee asked, bringing her face closer.

A dizzying fragrance wafted over him.

Chayeon’s body, which had a lot of a bookworm side that was the opposite of his appearance and behavior when he was a man, stiffened slightly.

“Yes, I’m Jeon Chayeon. I turned into a woman yesterday.”

“Turned into a woman…?”

Seohee tilted her head.

Chayeon summarized the explanation he had given to Namyeon and told it to Seohee.

However, because Heukgumiho had once again told him ‘don’t mention me specifically’, he didn’t say that name and just called it ‘spirit’.

Seohee fell into deep thought after hearing the story.

“I see. It’s more common than you think for a spirit to suddenly possess someone. But it’s strange that the spirit told you about this place.”

Recalling the woman’s words earlier, it seemed that it was generally impossible to communicate with spirits.

Since hearing those words, Chayeon had been constantly worried about that part.

‘They say it’s impossible to talk to spirits, so what are you?’

[It’s not impossible to talk. And a great spirit like me can communicate directly.]

‘I can’t believe you.’

Since coming here, his trust in Heukgu had been constantly declining.

Not that he had much faith in it from the beginning.

“Maybe it’s not the spirit’s voice, but someone is sending their will directly into Chayeon’s head? Pretending to be a spirit. This seems more likely.”

Seohee, who had been muttering, lost in her own thoughts, realized that Chayeon was staring at her and quickly came to her senses.

“Look at my mind. I was thinking only about myself again. I’m sorry for bringing you here.”

“No, it’s okay. You’re always like that, Noona.”

Even though they had met in an unfamiliar place, she was the ‘Librarian Noona’ that Chayeon knew.

It was a common sight to see her suddenly fall into her own thoughts like this.

“You’re definitely Chayeon if you say that so mercilessly.”

Seohee smiled brightly.

“What are you, Librarian Noona? Are you someone related to this strange place?”

He asked what he had been wondering since earlier, looking straight at Seohee, who was sitting on the bed.

At those words, Seohee closed her eyes and chose her words, and then slowly opened her mouth.

“Chayeon can’t be called an ordinary person anymore, so I should tell you. I’m a ‘teacher’ at this place, Jindal.”

“Teacher?”

“Yeah, that is, I’m a teacher who works here.”

Heukgu had said that Jindal was ‘an academy for people with supernatural powers’.

In other words,

“Then are you also a person with supernatural powers, Noona? Is a spirit or divine beast inside you?”

“Well, half right and half wrong.”

Seohee raised her left hand and twirled her index finger.

Then the documents on the desk floated up and flew in front of the bed.

He had known that she was not an ordinary person since she was floating in the air earlier, but it was amazing to see it again in front of his eyes like this.

“I am a person with supernatural powers. My ability is, so to speak, a superpower in general?”

“What on earth is a superpower in general?”

“You can do anything with the superpowers you usually imagine. Telekinesis, levitation, clairvoyance, mind’s eye, or X-ray vision. Oh. Teleportation too.”

What is that.

She’s a complete superhuman.

It seemed like it would be faster to find what she couldn’t do.

“But I’m not someone who has a spirit or divine beast. Strictly speaking, I’ve only borrowed power from a divine beast, it doesn’t directly enter my body or anything.”

Seohee grabbed the flying document and handed it to Chayeon.

“Here.”

“This is?”

When he received it, it was written ‘Personal Information Form’ on it.

“Keep it for now. Do you have any other questions?”

Questions. He had many things he was curious about, but he asked as he thought of them.

“You said you’re a teacher here, so are you also working as a librarian?”

It was quite a distance, so was she commuting this distance every day?

He was also wondering why she was working as a librarian in the first place.

“Hmm, librarian work. Actually, the one Chayeon was facing every day was my doppelganger.”

“It’s getting more and more absurd.”

All kinds of superpowers were followed by a doppelganger.

At this point, she was close to omnipotent.

It seemed like it would be faster to find what she couldn’t do.

“Why are you making a doppelganger to do the librarian work?”

“The teachers here aren’t just doing the job of teaching. One of the most important tasks is to find new people with supernatural powers who haven’t been identified yet and bring them here. Chayeon came on his own before we could find him, though.”

The task of finding new people with supernatural powers.

“Seoul, especially the southern part, is the area I manage.”

In other words, she was using a doppelganger to create a disguised identity and work in order to find people with supernatural powers in southern Seoul.

Then why did she have to work as a librarian?

Just as that question arose, Seohee put her index finger to her lips and winked cutely.

“It’s a secret to others that I’m working as a librarian?”

…It seemed like she was goofing off.

“But why are you bothering to gather people with supernatural powers?”

Chayeon asked the next question that came to his mind.

“Hmm, firstly, it’s to keep them under control. To put it bluntly, should I say it’s to monitor them? Supernatural powers are, as the name suggests, not ordinary powers, so if we leave them alone, who knows what kind of negative impact they might have on society?”

Certainly, in Chayeon’s case, he didn’t know anything special yet other than the fact that he had become a woman, but he could easily imagine that dangerous things would happen if someone like Seohee had bad intentions.

“Secondly, it’s to protect people with supernatural powers from demons.”

“Demons?”

Come to think of it, one of the men with the swords earlier had said something about a low-level demon.

“Yes, they are beings that oppose spirits or divine beasts, and they devour our people with supernatural powers who are possessed by spirits or divine beasts or who have borrowed their power.”

This was something he couldn’t ignore.

…Hey, fox, why am I hearing this for the first time?

[Creatures as lowly as demons are not even worth a bite to this Heukgumiho. There is no need to mention them.]

No matter how he thought about it, this Heukgumiho was full of bluster.

He should have known since he said he was a ‘reigning being’ or something.

[It’s not bluster.]

He heard a protesting voice, but he let it flow through one ear.

He had gotten used to it after listening to it, so it wasn’t difficult to ignore it even if it was a sound ringing in his head.

“So this academy is playing the role of protecting us from those demons.”

“That’s right. At the same time, we also help each student develop the power to resist demons.

There was an incident where even a high-ranking spirit was attacked a while ago. Because of that, the entire academy is in a state of heightened alert.

That’s part of the reason why Chayeon was treated a little roughly.”

By the way, Seohee, who had started speaking, got up and approached Chayeon.

Then she reached out without hesitation and began to stroke his hair.

“Your hair is so soft. You’re that Chayeon. How can you be so cute.”

Why were the people around him so eager to touch him after seeing him as a woman?

Chayeon was frozen and unable to move.

He was weak against women.

Rather than feeling attracted to the opposite s3x, his body literally stiffened with tension when a woman came close.

Especially to older women who exuded such a mature atmosphere.

Chayeon was a bookworm.

“Amazing. I’ve never seen a case where someone became a woman after receiving a spirit. There have been cases where their appearance or age changed, but I never thought I’d see a case where their s3x changed.”

Seohee scanned Chayeon thoroughly with a curious look.

Her face was getting closer and closer.

He could even feel her breath now.

Getting closer.

Getting closer.

Too close.

Chayeon’s voice, embarrassed, went in.

“Please move away.”

“Huh?”

…?>

Seohee, who had been stroking his hair, suddenly froze.

He could also feel Heukgu’s puzzled look.

‘What’s wrong?’

[I see. Even the fact that he doesn’t realize it himself is perfect. This is…………. good.]

Heukgu muttered something incomprehensible.

“Was that sound just now Chayeon’s? Oh my gosh, how can you be so cute!”

“Ugh, wait, wait a minute! What are you doing!”

Chayeon quickly stepped back as Seohee came closer, opening her arms as if to hug him.

Even though he desperately tried to push her away, she kept sticking to him. Eventually, Chayeon bared his teeth and growled, and only then did Seohee lick her lips as if she were disappointed.

“I’m sorry. You were too cute, Chayeon, and I lost my mind.”

Fortunately, she seemed to have regained her senses.

Chayeon breathed a sigh of relief after seeing her return to the bed.

“To continue the story, I’ve never seen a case like Chayeon’s, where someone became a woman. Personally, it’s something that interests me. So, how about enrolling in Jindal?”

Seohee pointed to the paper Chayeon was holding with her finger.

It was the same paper with ‘Personal Information Form’ written on it.

“The reason I’m recommending you to enroll isn’t just because of my personal interest.

As I said before, now that Chayeon has become a person with supernatural powers, demons will also be targeting you.

For your own safety, I recommend that you live in the academy until you develop your strength. What do you think?”

Chayeon looked down at the paper in his hand.

Below the columns for basic personal information such as name, age, and gender, as well as family relationship, occupation, affiliation, and address, there were sections for writing the type of supernatural power, date of manifestation, and recommender for admission.

Now that he knew about the unknown threat called demons, there was no other option.

There was also the reason that he trusted Seohee, whom he knew, much more than Heukgu, who had not told him important information.

“Okay.”

“Then will you fill out the personal information and give it to me? Write my name as the recommender for admission. Oh, and write your gender as female.”

She added that no one would believe him even if he said he was a man in that appearance.

“Librarian Noona.”

Before he could ask if he could borrow a pen, Seohee cut him off.

“From now on, call me Teacher Seohee in the academy? Or Seohee Unnie~ would also be good.”

“…Can I borrow a pen, Teacher?”

Seeing that expression that she didn’t know what to do because he was so cute, Chayeon vowed in his heart that he would never say the word unnie, even if he died.
