“Then let’s move on to the next on our schedule. The second thing I want to do is to pick out representatives and get us all organized.”

Representative? 

Organized? 

Why is he making this offer?

“I don’t know how long we will live in this world, but we may just be spending the rest of our lives here. There will be a lot of things going on in our future lives. Just as the summoning happened without any notice, a sudden situation could strike us again, or we, the earthlings, may experience discrimination and persecution from the otherworlders.”

His eyes were full of conviction as he addressed us.

“I think we need to build our own organization and appoint a representative in order to respond quickly and protect our interests in such situations.”

His words were logical, and his intentions were selfless.

If it hadn’t been the class president who brought up this proposal, I would have doubted whether the proposer wanted to gain power and influence or not.

My other classmates seem to agree with the class president.

But well...

“Don’t you think you should just do it?”

“That’s right. You’re the class president; you’re the first person to suggest it, and you are smart...”

“Everyone listens to you.”

The position of class representative fits well with Park Min-ho, enough to label it as his calling.

Park Min-ho is sincere, wise, and has leadership skills. 

He thinks and acts for our class more than anyone else, and is trusted by all of us.

It’s almost unimaginable to have someone other than him representing us.

But he shook his head.

“Of course, I will also run for office. Even if someone other than me becomes the representative, I will work hard to help that classmate. But I think it’s wrong to become the representative just because I’m the class president from Earth. In the first place, there are people in the class who are better than me but didn’t run for election because they were busy studying. Had they not been, they may have been in my position...”

No, it’s not because you’re the class president that we’ve anointed you, but because you’re really the best match compared to everyone else.

The words reached my throat, but I managed to keep my mouth shut.

In this situation, I shouldn’t stand in the limelight so as not to attract the attention of everyone else.

Because I don’t want to be the representative in charge of the whole class.

So Minho, can you stop making eye contact with me?

“Do we have any volunteers or recommendations?”

I will never volunteer. 

There is no other individual in my class who is close enough to me to recommend me, except for Ji-hye, but Ji-hye knows that I hate things like this, so she won’t recommend me.

I’m sorry but I won’t fall for your trap 

“I recommend Jung Ji-hoo!”

Who the fuck…?

At the sudden male voice, I hurriedly turned around.

There, Lee Hyeon-woo, who raised his muscular arms, was looking at me.

It was Lee Hyun Woo.

On Earth, I had a casual hi-and-bye relationship with him. 

Even in this other world, there hadn’t been any contact between us other than me rescuing him from the goblin village...?

Oh, is it because of that?

“Jihoo rescued me from the woods and led the four of us. I was just flustered and trembling... I was very ignorant, but Jihoo was calm and determined. Without him, I would surely be in a much more dangerous situation. Whether I would have died of starvation or dehydration, I don’t know, but I’m certain something or the other would have happened.”

“Um, um.”

Damn, I should have thrown them away when I could have.

Park Min-ho nods his head with a satisfied smile. 

It seems that the eyes of my other classmates have slightly changed when looking at me.

If I insist on not doing anything here, I may be able to run away, but the image I have built up so far will be damaged.

I sighed and opened my mouth.

“I don’t intend to be the representative. I think Minho will do much better than me. But... I’ll think about other executive positions.”

“Okay! Of course, I didn’t mean to appoint just one representative. Since there are close to 30 people in our class, shouldn’t we have at least 4 executives? Now, everyone applaud!”

*Clap clap clap!*

No, even if I didn’t say anything, it seems this position was destined.

That’s how I became the vice president of our class.

The classmate who was originally the vice-captain resigned, saying that he was not confident in fulfilling his role in this sort of situation because he had just run for the vice-captain on Earth for the sake of his college application.

Min Hye-rin and Choi Ji-hoon volunteered for the remaining executive positions.

I’m not sure what they were thinking.

Choi Ji-hoon was greedy for the representative position but was defeated by a vote of 16 to 6.

In the end, our class representative became Park Min-ho.

After the selection of executives, it was late and the meeting was adjourned.

In the end, I did not find out the meaning behind the thought-provoking questions that Park Min-ho asked us at the library yesterday.

Was he not planning to hold a class meeting to discuss that?

We delivered the list of executives to the head maid who oversees the main building.

Some feedback came back 3 days later.

“The 3rd Princess, the resident of the Star Palace, wants to see you.”

A huge golden palace can be seen through the window.

The owner of that palace, with the title of the Star Palace, called for us.
