Chapter 356

"Are...aren't they coming to eat?"

"I'm hungry. We should eat chicken."

It's been more than an hour and a half since Park MoonDae and Seon AhHyun locked themselves in their room.

Bae SeJin, who was sitting on the bed and voluntarily gave up his desk to Kim RaeBin, who was tapping on the keyboard, thought nervously.

'No, couldn't it be that...they're drinking without anyone noticing?'

Bae SeJin checked the refrigerator just in case, but there was no sign of alcoholic beverages. Since no one had bought them in the first place, he knew it was just speculation.

'I don't think...it's necessary to mediate between them.'

Seon AhHyun, who arrived in the morning, looked a little dazed, but the atmosphere between the two looked less serious.

Bae SeJin tested his luck.

"I guess they are having a good conversation."

A sharp reply came back.

"That's right, I have no idea why they borrowed my laptop, but I hope it's helping them have a deep conversation!"

"Heum, yes."

Bae SeJin decided to stop hesitating. This was because he felt a bit embarrassed because he thought he was the only one who thought so much about that topic in the apartment.

'Still, I would like someone to confirm it.'

Should I text them to see if I should bring them food?

However, not long after Bae SeJin thought so much, Ryu CheongWoo and Lee SeJin, who showed up because they were called by Park MoonDae, entered the room for a while.

'They are accompanying each other in the room because they are the same age.'

It was a selection that made the reason for the summoning clear.

Bae SeJin was a little disappointed by the older person who was also summoned, but he soon remembered his speaking skills and was convinced.

No, he felt relieved.

'I'm glad it wasn't me who was called...'

And as if magic had been worked, his wish came true.

Two hours later, the two who were called came out with tired faces.

Even Lee SeJin waved his hand without saying a word and disappeared into the kitchen to drink water.

'...?'

Bae SeJin was surprised.

"What's wrong?"

"Hmm."

Ryu CheongWoo smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I think MoonDae is not an ordinary person."

".....Hmm?"

"He persuaded us logically."

It's not even a debate. Why did he say that?

Bae SeJin asked without realizing it.

"What?"

"Hmm, about why he would have to reconcile with him."

"...??"

Is he trying to convince him logically? For what reasons should they make up like that?

Is that...possible?

However, Ryu CheongWoo added a word with a tired smile.

"It was fine."

"...??"

Something like that...Does it work?

Bae SeJin was even more confused.

But it was true that something similar was going on in the room.

* * *

'Excellent.'

I nodded my head.

The two guys who came into the room put it to good use in all forms of testing.

KeunDal was the only one who had to talk over the writings that the three guys did and that I saw in random order, either answering questions, guessing what each person's drawings were, describing what Seon AhHyun was holding in his hands...

As the number of people increased, the process became more and more astronomically complicated, and there were fewer and fewer holes to suspect a hoax.

It was the last method I made for AhHyun to conclude on his own.

'It's like a fierce battle.'

All the tests went smoothly. Thanks to KeunDal using his rest hours to talk to us, there was nothing to worry about.

Ryu CheongWoo gave me a meaningful look, though.

"Could you do this?"

"....."

It looked like how twins communicate telepathically.

One that Keun SeJin should have done.

Anyway, both boys did a good job. In particular, as soon as Seon AhHyun lowered his defense, Keun SeJin...attacked my contradictions very well.

"MoonDae's curriculum is different from ours. Have you ever heard him talk about something related to KoInMa out of the blue? You thought you heard it wrong?"

"He also knows how to drive. Last time, he gave a tip to manager hyung without realizing it. AhHyun-ah, you've never seen Park MoonDae study for a driver's license, have you?"

TL/N: '국영수' (GuGyongSu) stands for '국어' (Korean Language), '영어' (English Language) and '수학' (Math), that's why I wrote it as 'KoInMa'. They are the core courses of middle and high school students, so SeJin asked AhHyun if he ever spoke, wrote or made a wrong calculation on subjects of those courses, considering that MoonDae claims to have studied at a private university thanks to a scholarship for his good academic results, plus Park MoonDae was originally supposed to have dropped out of his high school studies.

I wanted to shut his mouth a few times, but the effect of improving the situation was noticeable, so I let it go.

And as time went on, Seon AhHyun began to actively participate in the testing method I had devised.

By this time, I was starting to feel a little nervous and exhausted.

"Then...t-Then...I'll ask you a few questions, for him t-to answer them."

"Yes."

And now, after countless restarts and iterations.

"....."

"....."

Seon AhHyun stares blankly into the air. He seems to have completely abandoned his obsession with writing in the notebook.

'You were holding it like a string, but you finally let go.'

Questions and keywords are scattered in the notebook.

-Magic

-No electronic devices...

-Other person

Of course, everything is lined up.

This is because, up until now, Seon AhHyun has been researching questions and doubts he had, and has been clearing them up one by one.

At this point, he has no choice but to admit it.

That I'm not a crazy guy, but at least some of what I said is real.

"Any other questions?"

"....."

The place from which the two guests emerged was quiet. After organizing Kim RaeBin's computer, I sat down in front of Seon AhHyun.

I heard the sound of AhHyun swallowing saliva.

And he raised his head.

"...N-no."

Confidence returned to the guy's eyes who replied.

"None."

A resolute answer as if everything had been cleared without a hitch.

'That's right.'

It was worth pressing him for four hours.

I almost clenched my fists, but relaxed them.

"Yes."

It's not over yet. If I tell him, 'So now you believe me, right?' my whole plan will be ruined.

'If we end up like this, there will definitely be things that will make you uncomfortable later on.'

I spoke first.

"Obviously it's possible that I said nonsense, that doesn't mean everything I said is true."

"...! Th-that's..."

Skill and truth are not the same thing.

Just because a madman does magic doesn't mean everything he says is true.

'That's a complete scam.'

So I have to say this.

I have to block the source.

"But even if I lied about this, I wouldn't get any benefit."

"....."

"You know, simply put, from our point of view, it doesn't add any more secular value than we need now."

Value of money, fame and status.

We're at the top of this short-lived job now, and there's no reason to be obsessed with things above our reach now, in case there's a decline in a few years.

Because I've already got it.

Objectively, idol 'Park MoonDae' is in a state where both material desire and the desire to gain recognition are satisfied.

"There is no reason for me to say crazy things with this ability."

And to my surprise, Seon AhHyun immediately replied.

"I never thought of that."

"...!"

"I-I never thought...that you were lying to me, MoonDae."

"Yes."

I didn't expect to hear this.

But it's not something that feels bad.

"I-it's true. MoonDae is not a person who lies about this...Of course I know that."

'Were you sincere in what you said back then?'

I finished my brief flashback.

...Thanks to that, I can move on to the next part without delay.

I paused for a moment and then continued.

"Then let's look at the hypothesis that I was mistaken for someone else."

Why is this not valid?

Why is thinking that 'Park MoonDae mistakenly believed that Ryu GunWoo was him,' an awkward proposition?

'I'm going to prove it...'

I smiled bitterly.

"'Ryu GunWoo' is...Now you know, but I didn't live a life that 'Park MoonDae' would envy."

"...!"

Both of them were orphaned and were busy making a living.

You may feel a similarity, but if you dare to change your place...Wouldn't it be only when you envy the other person or because they have something better than you?

"If Park MoonDae was crazy and mistook himself for someone else, it wouldn't have been him."

It would have been better if it was Ryu CheongWoo, but Ryu GunWoo is not qualified.

"So, honestly, this hypothesis doesn't fit."

And contrary to that hypothesis, so far I've been testing for hours to back up my claim.

Seon AhHyun looked at me with trembling eyes.

I let go of my hands.

"This is all I have prepared."

"....."

"I think I did everything I could. To tell you the truth, there is no way I can prove more at this point."

I spoke frankly.

I am completely fit to say this after having been speaking for so long without leaving a single hole in my arguments.

"I mobilized everyone I could and did all I could say."

AhHyun nodded slowly.

At that moment, hismood seemed to say 'It's okay, MoonDae-yah. I believe you now.'

I smiled.

"Then...I won't ask you of what you think."

"...E-eh?"

Isn't this guy's personality obvious? He told me to go to the hospital, but what if I admitted that my mental state was fine?

'He's going to blame himself until his mentality is completely ruined.'

No need to wait to see him in that state. So...let's relieve him.

"You can't do everything at once. Take your time and doubt as much as you want. Continuously."

"C-Continuously...?" That's right.

"That's right. If you have any questions in the future, you can ask me anything. I will keep answering."

"....."

Seon AhHyun opened his mouth.

It is good to establish this line because he is not the one who makes a fuss out of malice.

I wonder if there will be anyone who doesn't believe it after doing this, but honestly, isn't it normal to believe it at this point?

Still, I'm trying to ease his burden.

'So far so good.'

I looked at him with almost certainty.

"Thank-you...MoonDae-yah."

However, Seon AhHyun didn't nod reluctantly.

"But, e-even if I don't do that, i-it's okay."

"...!"

"I've...shown you a lot of my untrustworthy side."

AhHyun clenched hishands tightly.

"But, n-not to the point that...I can't admit it, MoonDae, n-not after you've been...working hard for so long. I-if I had any doubt..."

Seon AhHyun took a deep breath.

"F-first, I'll think about it...organize it, find out, and i-in case...don't resolve the d-doubt...I'll ask."

"....."

"I really...really...believe in you, Mo-MoonDae-yah."

Oh, wow.

"Yes."

I extended my hand towards Seon AhHyun and he extended his hand and held it.

It didn't feel so cold this time.

"I hope I can count on your continued support."

"Yes."

It was a handshake I hadn't done in several days.

* * *

Finally, Park MoonDae and Seon AhHyun came out to the living room.

And seeing the atmosphere between the two, the other TeSTAR members realized that the conflict was resolved well.

"Good job, the winner eats chicken!"

"Cha YooJin! The way you talk is..."

"Yes. You, buy it instead."

"...! If MoonDae hyung says so..."

"No, not you."

The conversation became funny sometimes.

And that night, the leader made a phone call to the company to talk about the schedule with a smile.

"AhHyun-ah~"

"Yes?"

When Seon AhHyun, who was standing on the terrace, turned around, Lee SeJin smiled and stood beside him.

"Why are you here alone, aren't you eating chicken?"

"I'm-I'm fine."

Seon AhHyun smiled slightly.

"I guess AhHyun-ah must have a lot on his mind."

Lee SeJin smiled as he lightly hit his shoulder. The atmosphere softened.

However, Seon AhHyun didn't wave his hands in denial or change his mood.

"...Yes. A little."

He had just answered clearly, but Lee SeJin got the point.

"Hmm...Does it bother you that you could have done a little better?"

".....!"

That's right.

After the conflict ended, Seon AhHyun made an objective judgment while recalling the incident without being found out.

'...I wasn't thinking rationally.'

When he heard Park MoonDae's story for the first time, he was scared and, thanks to that, he was immersed in it.

So step by step, without asking Lee SeJin or Ryu CheongWoo, who already knew about the situation, he madly increased his anxiety inside.

This conflict was a product of his own weakness.

He just wanted to talk about this fact.

Seon AhHyun opened his mouth.

"Yes. A-a little. I guess so. I-I'll do better next time."

However, what came out of his mouth was just a light admission.

"Okay, SeJinie will do the same~."

"Fi-fighting."

Seon AhHyun thought over and over about his conclusion and decided not to repeat his admission or apologize to those around him.

'I'll do that...because I want him to feel more comfortable.'

Even if he apologized to the whole group, Park MoonDae would be the only one who would feel more burden and pain in himself.

After all this, Seon AhHyun felt something desperately.

'If I want to share his burden, I have to carry mine properly first.'

He had to prove that he could afford to share his burden.

But instead of trying to show qualifications out of nothing, it was right to become that kind of person.

'My share is something I have to handle alone.'

Still, Seon AhHyun will leave the fact that hedidn't trust Park MoonDae as an object of self-reproach and improvement.

Seon AhHyun decided to do it without borrowing anyone's judgment.

By himself.

Then, in a surprisingly light tone, I finished his remarks.

"Hmm, l-let's go eat chicken."

"Oh~ Right."

The two of them, who were standing on the terrace, left and returned to the living room. It was a wonderful return.

But internally, it had made an unusual decision.

And the next morning.

"H-hello, MoonDae-yah."

"Yes..."

Walking out the door and meeting Seon AhHyun, Park MoonDae confirmed something he didn't expect.

[Attribute: Tenacity]

[Status Abnormality: Lack of self-esteem (Disabled)].

".....?"

Seon AhHyun's status anomaly had returned to the initial inactivation state.

Without any help.

'What?'

Park MoonDae was trying to quickly proceed with his plan to reactivate his feature from today, based on the confidence he regained from yesterday's crazy five-hour relay tests.

'Did I see it wrong?'

Park MoonDae almost looked at Seon AhHyun with a frown.

But he saw something else first.

[Tenacity (S)]

Your mentality is self-made. That's why you will be able to handle it alone.

→ When the attribute is active, state abnormalities are compensated (dual application possible).

TL/N: The initial description of 'Tenacity (A)' said: 'You make your mentality yourself. Turn on your concentration and control your negative state'. 'Dual application' means that this time AhHyun can deactivate two state abnormalities that he has.


"Mo-MoonDae-yah...?"

"....."

Park MoonDae read one more sentence that caught his attention.

[Your mentality is self-made.]

It is true.

I didn't know what kind of change of heart there was, but last night, Seon AhHyun broke his depression and reactivated his characteristics.

Maybe Park MoonDae can guess how it was that he did it in the future, but...

'I think...it's okay.'

As he overcame it himself, Seon AhHyun would know.

He cursed that characteristic before and thought that he was a fraud, but this time Park MoonDae was looking at Seon AhHyun as if he was quite admirable.

...Of course, in case a problem arises, he would find a way to get rid of the cause and effect.

But not today.

"Let's eat."

"Yes...!"

The next day, TeSTAR resumed business as planned with the announcement of his 'recovery of health status'.

And as they went back to business as usual, the first Billboard ranking was announced.

It was the beginning of a big commotion.
