Vendetta System

The next day finally arrived – the day of Hyunsoo's body transformation. Waking up, he rubbed his eyes and went to the bathroom. After brushing his teeth, Hyunsoo looked in the mirror. Good heavens! His face, his body… everything had changed! Hyunsoo didn't recognize himself; he was in denial.

Hyunsoo (with a strange and confused feeling):

"Huh… who is this in the mirror? Like a famous actress, and look at this body… like a bodybuilder! Wait, why has my voice changed?"

Yes, Hyunsoo had changed! His body transformation had made him strong, tough, and handsome. Not only his body and face, but his hair and voice had also changed, becoming more masculine and deeper. He touched his face, realizing that the face and body in the mirror were his own.

Hyunsoo (touching his face, body, and hair):

"What… what is this? Why has my face changed? And look at my hair… like a famous actress! Wow, my body… and my abs… so defined!"

Hyunsoo's grandmother (knocking on his door and calling him):

"Hyunsoo, why are you shouting? Come out, have breakfast, and go to school!"

Hyunsoo (surprised to hear his grandmother):

"Yes, Grandma! I'll be right out!"

After seeing his athletic face and body, Hyunsoo went out and opened the door. His grandmother saw her grandson and was shocked! This wasn't Hyunsoo! Due to a misunderstanding, Hyunsoo's grandmother thought he was an intruder.

Hyunsoo's grandmother (seeing her grandson but misunderstanding, then hitting him with a broom):

"Huh? Not Hyunsoo? Who is this? Are you an intruder? Here, take this broom!"

Hyunsoo (speaking to his grandmother):

"Grandma, it's me, Grandma! It's me, Hyunsoo, your grandson!"

Hyunsoo's grandmother (shocked that it was Hyunsoo):

"Goodness, Hyunsoo! Is that you? Why are you so different, dear?"

Hyunsoo (speaking to his grandmother):

"Yes, Grandma! This is the result of my hard work, and I became strong thanks to your prayers."

After talking to his grandmother, Hyunsoo went to the dining table and prepared for school. He greeted his grandmother. Afterwards, Hyunsoo opened the door and… was surprised! Baek Suzy, his neighbor, was there! Suzy didn't realize it was Hyunsoo; she thought he was a celebrity visiting their house.

Hyunsoo (greeting his grandmother):

"Grandma, I'm going to school now, Grandma!"

Hyunsoo (surprised after opening the door and seeing Suzy):

"Suzy? You scared me!"

Baek Suzy (shocked and not knowing it was Hyunsoo):

"Sorry, I surprised you. Are you an actress? Did you come to Hyunsoo's house?"

Hyunsoo (speaking to Suzy):

"An actress? No, Suzy! It's me, Hyunsoo!"

Baek Suzy (shocked that it was Hyunsoo, her cheeks flushed):

"Huh? Hyunsoo? Why are you so different? I thought you were an actress! Oh, yes, this is food for Grandma. Here's the food!"

Suzy was so surprised to see Hyunsoo, her cheeks flushed, and she immediately ran away because her heart was pounding. After receiving the food from Suzy, Hyunsoo thanked her, but Suzy ran off.

Hyunsoo (thanking Baek Suzy):

"Wow, food for Grandma! Thank you, Suzy! Hey, Suzy… why did you run away? Why?"

Hyunsoo then left for school. On the way, people stared at him because of his handsome and dashing face and body. People whispered.

"Hey, who is that? So handsome! He must be a famous celebrity!"

"Hey, yeah… yeah… let's get his number!"

Those whispers continued as Hyunsoo walked. The school bus stopped, and Hyunsoo got on and went to his school. At school, when he got off, the students thought Hyunsoo was a new student.

"Look… look! There's a new student! So handsome!"

(A female student approached Hyunsoo, mistaking him for a new student):

"Ahem… can I have your number?"

Hyunsoo (Hyunsoo was surprised and nervous because he had never had any friends and his contact list was empty):

"Uh, y-yes, sure… " (taking his phone from his pocket, fingers trembling slightly) "181… uh… 081…" (searching for his number on his own phone) "Just a moment… here's my number!"

The female student (excitedly telling her friend):

"Yay… I got his number first! Yay!"

Hyunsoo (feeling strange about the female student):

"Whew… what's with that girl?"

After that incident, Hyunsoo went to his class. He walked towards the stairs. News of the new student spread, but no one knew that the new student was Hyunsoo. Hyunsoo entered the classroom and sat down. He felt uncomfortable being looked at by so many people. Then, behind the school, at Choi Daehoon's hangout spot, he was surprised to hear about the new student and went to Hyunsoo's class.

Choi Daehoon's henchman (whispering to Choi Daehoon):

"Boss, they say there's a new student at this school."

Choi Daehoon (hearing his subordinate's whisper):

"Huh? A new student? Who is this new student? Let's go there! And get protection money! He might be a rich kid!"

Choi Daehoon and his henchmen went to Hyunsoo's class. After Choi Daehoon appeared in the classroom, the other students were scared. Choi Daehoon kicked a chair and shouted, "Who's the new student here, huh?" The other students pointed towards Hyunsoo. There, Hyunsoo saw Choi Daehoon's stats.

Choi Daehoon (seeing the new student):

"Oh… so this is the new student! Quickly, pay up!"

Kang Jiwoon (grabbing Hyunsoo's collar):

"Don't pretend you didn't hear, you bastard! New students here have to pay protection money!"

Choi Daehoon and his henchmen extorted Hyunsoo, but this time Hyunsoo didn't stay silent. He grabbed Kang Jiwoon's hand and squeezed it tightly.

Kang Jiwoon (feeling pain):

"Ouch… ouch… mercy… mercy!"

Kang Jiwoon felt pain from Hyunsoo's grip. He punched Hyunsoo, but Hyunsoo immediately activated *quick dash* and dodged the punch. Hyunsoo then counterattacked with a punch, his hand glowing red, and… "Bang!" Hyunsoo's punch hit Kang Jiwoon's face, and Kang Jiwoon flew backward.

Choi Daehoon (seeing Hyunsoo's punch hit his subordinate; Choi Daehoon then aimed his punch at Hyunsoo):

"You bastard! How dare you! Take this punch!"

Choi Daehoon punched Hyunsoo. Hyunsoo panicked because *quick dash* was still on cooldown. Hyunsoo took Choi Daehoon's punch, but he got back up. Hyunsoo remembered that after defeating Kang Jiwoon, he received a bonus from the system, the *special skill Blur Impact*: a kick so fast it looked like a blurry shadow. Hyunsoo activated the *special skill*, and his leg glowed gray. He quickly kicked Choi Daehoon's face with a taekwondo-style kick. Choi Daehoon flew back, his nose bleeding! Choi Daehoon was thrilled because he had found someone of equal strength.

Choi Daehoon (in pain and surprised):

"Damn it!! Am I bleeding? Hahaha… this is the fight I've been longing for!"

Choi Daehoon acted like a possessed madman. After being kicked by Hyunsoo, Choi Daehoon got up and punched Hyunsoo repeatedly. Hyunsoo initially managed to dodge, but in the end, he took a hit. The pain awakened Hyunsoo! *Quick dash* appeared in his system, and he activated it along with his punch. Hyunsoo combined *quick dash* and a punch towards Choi Daehoon. Choi Daehoon, hit by this, was sent flying far away and lost consciousness; his vision was blurry.

Hyunsoo (successfully defeating Choi Daehoon):

"I… I… I defeated Choi Daehoon?"

Hyunsoo (speaking to the unconscious Choi Daehoon):

"Hey, Daehoon! Don't you know who I am? It's me, Hyunsoo! The person you always bullied!"

Seeing the fight, everyone in the class was terrified. And even more shocking, the new student was Hyunsoo, the weak, small, nerdy, innocent, and foolish Hyunsoo! He defeated Choi Daehoon and his henchmen!
