Chapter 3. CUBE

I woke up quite early for my fist day of school. Looking at the clock beside the bed, I am really quite early.

[ 7:11]

I still have an hour and a few minutes before school. To be honest, I don't really wake up that early even in my original world. Damn, I wake so late there that I'm almost late everyday.

"Go wash yourself. I already made breakfast~"

I nodded at Bihyung who stood and leaned on our bedroom's dorm. Watching me begrungingly walk into the bathroom.

After washing myself up, styling my hair, wearing the cute cube uniform and fluffy furry coat. The weird question mark and feeling of my face still creeping me, but overall if what Bihyung said is true then I'll look like a kpop idol or model right now. I smiled at my reflection although I can't really see said smile.

I left the bedroom and walked into the kitchen, Bihyung already drinking a mug of coffee.

"Here. It's your favourite~"

I looked at the plate full of fried rice and omelette. My favourite kind of breakfast since the first time I tasted it. It's really quite convenient to have Bihyung with me. A great chef. Especially when I'm really not a great cook. Heh. The very thought of cooking always make me remember the times I took a plate or pot cover just to shield myself from the boiling hot oil resulting with the foods being overcooked or undercooked. The fact that I hadn't made progress in my years of living in my original world says a lot of my potential in cooking.

"Thanks for the food!"

I ate my breakfast, occasionally talking with Bihyung about my plans after entering CUBE.

After a few minutes, I walked out of the big fancy apartment that I stayed in for 2 weeks in this World. The apartment that me and Bihyung bonded in. Trained in. Slept in.

I sighed, remembering that a few minutes right now, Hajin would leave Chundong's apartment that he grew fond with. Just like me. Although both are kind of empty with our things and stuffs already delivered in CUBE.

{You know, you can just still come back here~ There's still a year left before your hold on this house will be gone. Taehyung's parents already thought and paid advance about it.}

I winced at the voice entering my head. Still not used to Bihyung talking in it especially with the headaches coming after it. And him not walking by my side but lounging in my cellphone instead.

"Ho—..."

I stopped myself before I could even ask a question physically with my mouth. Checking my surroundings before people could even call me crazy.

(Are they so prepared to die that they thought of their only son's future that advance? Didn't they died like 6 years ago?)

{It's their jobs as heroes and parents. They knew that this might happen.}

(... Well, that's reasonable. I know being a hero and fighting villains and monsters could kill and endanger someone's life. Too bad, the media said the couple was really nice and pretty famous because of it.)

I walked towards the portal to CUBE. Already knowing where the direction is with Bihyung's help.

Walking around in CUBE's uniform really catched the attentions of people. Almost everyone is watching and looking at me with unmasked awe, envy and proud faces. Clearly looking forward to the future of more heroes to protect the World.

{Too bad~}

Not looking back. I entered the portal to the artificial island in East Sea, where the prestigious and widely known school for future heroes is. CUBE.

{Entertainment~}

(Stop it!)
