Chapter 5: Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder (For Chaos)

AC Inside, one of Korea’s leading online communities.
Within it, the undisputed best and most chaotic gallery was ‘LoL Gallery’.

Even in a place teeming with countless trolls, certain users inevitably stood out.

He was one of them.
A being who appeared like a comet in LoL Gallery three months ago.

The one and only, ‘GoatSolNoon’.
With a nickname that screamed aggro, he was a user born to troll.

Compared to the veterans who had long dominated LoL Gallery, he was a mere newborn, but the destructive power of ‘SolNoon’ was enough to crush their experience.

The trolling power that even the long-time resident users acknowledged. The frightening activity level that ensured even passersby would have seen his posts at least once.
A beautiful harmony of the two, a being with truly demonic perfection.

Many users often praised his deeds.

‘A true 5-tool player in the community world.’

‘He perfectly combines offense and defense. His community activity is like watching Total Football.’

‘SolNoon? A crazy user with the activity of Park Ji-sung and the finishing power of Son Heung-min.’

‘Sub-moderator? Moderator? All are mere mortals before his Clone Jutsu.’

‘I worship you, GOAT.’

And so on.

However, ‘SolNoon’, who usually posted an average of 80, and sometimes over 200, posts a day, had been inactive for three days.

Even if he used an alternate account or a throwaway, his unmatched trolling prowess would have given him away, but there was no such sign now.

Therefore, it was only natural that posts about his whereabouts were popping up like mushrooms among the many LoL Gallery users.

• What’s with the 46% win rate? Is that even human in Iron?
  ㄴ It’s normal in Iron;
  ㄴ Wasn’t Leni Iron too? Real talk, just as expected lol
  ㄴ Leni isn’t that bad;
  ㄴ I looked it up, Leni’s is 47%, they’re pretty much the same
  ㄴ lol Anyway, it’s not 46%~

• Ugh, Leni locusts controlling the popular posts; so many downvotes
  ㄴ Real talk lol
  ㄴ Anyway, harassment is standard for Leni fans~

And so, SolNoon, whom everyone truly missed(?)…

“Ugh….”

Was completely dying.

[Promotion successful. Current tier: Iron II 43p]

Now only a step away from Iron I… Only a little bit left until the noble goal…
I couldn’t play any more ranked games.

Because magic had come to me.
Probably what you’re imagining is right. That pain that all women have to go through once a month. I was experiencing it vividly.

‘Wh, what is this!!!’

That dizzying first experience shortly after becoming a woman. It was a truly tremendous ordeal since I wasn’t prepared at all.
I managed to endure the second and third periods through thorough research… but this time, I completely overlooked it.

I roughly predicted the cycle, so all I had to do was prepare, but I missed it because I was absorbed in a game I had no business playing.

At least it hit after the promotion series ended. If it had hit during… I definitely would have failed, right? There was nothing more depressing than that.

Anyway, thanks to that unwanted magic-

“Ugh… I’m dying.”

I was lying in bed, groaning. My head was hot, my stomach hurt, and my mood was gloomy. This is what the trinity is all about… It’s not a cheat item in LoL for nothing. Really.

How nice would it be to lie on my mom’s lap and get a belly massage at a time like this. Of course, I was too ashamed to ask for that, having been a completely unfilial daughter.
Anyway, it was a moment when I desperately missed the warm affection of family.

-Ding-dong! -Ding-dong!

As I was immersed in endless pain and gloom, a doorbell suddenly rang. Someone had come to my studio apartment.

“What is it…?”

I couldn’t think of anything. I hadn’t ordered any deliveries or packages, and of course, I had absolutely no friends who would visit me.
Just a door-to-door salesperson or a cult member… They seemed to be similar types, so if I played dead, they would probably give up and leave.
I didn’t have the strength to go and open the door anyway.

–Beep beep beep beep

“?????????”

But the crazy person outside suddenly started pressing the door lock. With merciless finger movements that showed no hesitation.

-Gasp!

Could it be that crime I saw on the internet news recently, where they enter phone numbers or birthdates written on shipping labels to unlock doors?
Of course, my password was my gun number from the military, so it wouldn’t be that easily cracked…

Nevertheless, I couldn’t help but hide under the covers and tremble. What if there’s a master key that opens all door locks?

“Ugh….”

If I were my former male self, I would have grabbed a bat and waited for them to open the door, but I couldn’t do that now.
Because I’m a delicate, pretty girl now. My body and mind had become too fragile to do such scary things. I just peeked my eyes out from under the covers and trembled in fear.

Click

“Crazy….”

Finally, a truly cheerful sound struck my eardrums. It was the sound of the door lock willingly giving itself to the unknown guest. You
ing lock! The owner is still firmly guarding her chastity….

Anyway, am I going to die now?

My mind is reeling.
If I knew this would happen, I would’ve started playing LoL earlier and done some more sniping….
I still had so many ideas for popular posts….

But thankfully, such a tragedy didn’t occur.

“What? Why is it so dark? Are you alive, Unnie?”

“Huh…?”

It was a familiar voice.
Yes, the uninvited guest was my younger sister, Seo-Yeon Cheon.

“What’s with that lifeless reaction? This younger sister has come to see your face.”

“…….”
“Wow… Look at the state of you. You look like a corpse.”

Insults spewed from my sister’s mouth, accompanied by a look of disdain. It was truly a heartwarming moment of sibling… no, sisterly affection.
Yes, this is what real sisters are like.

“…….”

“What? Are you sick? Why aren’t you cursing me back?”

“…I’m sick.”

“Why? Why are you sick?”

“…period.”

“What? Did you eat something bad? Speak clearly.”

I could just say I’m on my period, but it just wouldn’t come out of my mouth. Because I was embarrassed.
Actually, there’s no reason to be embarrassed since she’s a girl and my sister… but when I try to say it, the words just won’t come out.

“…period.”

“I can’t hear you! You usually yell just fine, why are you like this today?”

“I’m on my period, you!!”

“ Why are you suddenly yelling? You really are on your period.”

“…….”

-Thud

After the outburst, I collapsed backward. I had no energy. I was already exhausted, so it was a miracle I had lasted this long.

“What…? You really are sick.”

“…Yeah.”

“Did you eat?”

“…No.”

“Sigh. You’ll get worse if you don’t eat. You’ll really collapse.”

“…….”

-Slide

Saying that, my sister suddenly held out her hand. It felt like she wanted something, but I couldn’t figure out her intentions.

“What…”

“Give. Money.”

“…?”

“I’ll buy you some porridge, so give me money. You need to eat something to regain your strength.”

Tears suddenly welled up. It was probably due to my fluctuating mood because of my period, but I was also touched.
She’s taking care of me because we’re family. My sister is the only one I have….

I sent her 10,000 won via my smartphone. 10,000 won should be enough for porridge, right? If it’s more expensive, I’ll just skip it….

“Sent it. 10,000 won.”

“Huh? How much?”

“10,000 won.”

“Unnie, are you crazy? You need to send at least 30,000 won.”

“????”

Is porridge that expensive these days? Even so, I don’t want to eat it if it’s more expensive than chicken.

“I need money to buy my own food too. I’m kindly running errands for someone who’s sick, you should at least do this much.”

The words “If it’s for someone who’s sick, shouldn’t you buy it with your own money?” rose to my throat, but I swallowed them down.
I didn’t want to expend any more mental energy, so I just transferred another 20,000 won to her.

“Okay… Sent it.”

“Yay! I’ll buy the most delicious one.”

My sister said that and zoomed out of the room. She clearly came here for a free dinner… I felt stupid for expecting anything else.

Still, I was grateful that she came at the right time.

Of course, that thought quickly changed.

Specifically, right after she brought the food.

“This crazy?”
