Surviving As The Villainess
Chapter 5 - The Emergence of New Characters?!

Now in front of Liyuna, there was a little Yuriel hiding behind her father's body. He looked timid and a little scared.

Liyuna who saw that tried to smile kindly in order to change her destiny. He must be friends with the boy if he wants to live. After all, Liyuna had been waiting for this to happen since 2 years ago.

"What's all this mean, Pa?" Sara asked in disbelief.

She thought Yuriel was the child of her husband's infidelity and it made her angry and disappointed.

"This is Yuriel, Ma. Papa wants to adopt her so Yuna has a playmate."

2 Years before ...

"Haaah, Miss Yuna, it's so hot today" Yvette said, holding a mini fan in front of her face.

It's the first time I've felt summer because in my previous life I lived in a tropical country. I did not expect that the summer heat in the Sub-tropical Country could be this severe, even in my previous life I had never complained to the heat. As I have explained before, Red String is set in a fictional country with a sub-tropical climate located in East Asia but strangely the names of people in this country sound like the names of westerners. I really don't understand what game developers think.

Ah, but even though the names here sound like western names, the name Liyuna itself is more like an Asian name. So did Yuriel and one of the targets named Yuda.

The summer breeze came in through the classroom window, sweeping my long hair, I could also hear crickets very clearly and this meant that this summer was extreme.

I first got into this body in the spring of April and it's been three months since Allen's move. I feel a little lucky because Liyuna is currently still a Elementary School student so I can relax and play to the fullest before the prologue starts.

"You're right, it's hot today." I agree with Yvette. I'm sure my face looks very pale, this weak body can't endure extreme heat like this, I put my head on the table and turn my back on the sunlight so that my head doesn't get too dizzy.

"Miss, I'm going to the cafeteria to get some ice cream first" said Yvette, who had given up on the heat in class.

The air conditioner in their class happened to be damaged and has not been repaired, so we can feel the heat of the sun in the summer. Liyuna who did have a weak body could not withstand all this and I finally decided not to go to the cafeteria and sleep in class.

"I'm picking up some strawberry-flavored ice cream."

"Sure, wait here, Miss. I'll be right back!" Yvette disappeared as fast as lightning, I gradually felt sleepy and finally fell asleep.

That day, Liyuna I had a dream about a man standing across the street, waiting for the green light to light up. He has a high posture, probably about 185 cm and a wide shoulder. He wears gray trousers with a black turtle neck sweater and a beige coat. The thick black scarf coiled around his white neck quite tightly, occasionally blowing on both hands due to the cold.

I sat in a cafe accompanied by warm coffee and steaming smoke. When I saw the man, I knew that he was the one I was waiting for.

The man walked up to me and smiled, but I didn't know who he was. When viewed from his height it is certain that he is not an elementary school child like Liyuna at this time. He is a grown man whose identity I do not know. Seeing that guy feeling somehow I feel a little strange, there is a feeling of longing that is so deep, somehow that feeling can appear.

'Ah, is this one of Liyuna's original memories?'

I was actually very frightened when I suddenly possessed another person's body without any clarity. I've never said this before, I always say say say as if I'm fine and can accept this easily. But, actually not so. I'm just an ordinary 18-year-old person, I'm mentally more mature than I am because of the heavy things I've experienced in my previous life. But sometimes I also feel scared because strange dreams like this often appear, maybe because I think too much about the plot of the game or maybe the real Liyuna also wants to tell me something, he said, I'm not sure. Because strange dreams like this often appear I become confused, even I am not sure if this has ever happened in the game or not because the story about Liyuna is very little.

There is a reason why I said I would accept this fate and become Liyuna, and continue to live by the flow that is in the game. It's all because in the real world I'm not an amazing person, people don't hate me but they don't like me. My friends are also very little and I rarely contact them because they are busy part-time. Everything seems ordinary and it makes me live like an invisible person. Despite always being in first place, people don't know who I am, they only know my name. I can't do anything about this because during High School I worked part-time in the school cafeteria. Of course, this is not allowed, but I begged the school and the canteen mom to let me do part-time because I really did not have money. I even promised to keep my grades and enter some national competitions if necessary. It was because of this promise that the school gave me special permission.

I was an orphan and always tried to survive relying on myself, there was no one else I could ask for help or someone who could help me. That's why I'm used to fighting alone.

After possessing Liyuna's body, I just felt the affection of my sincere parents and friends. This is what makes me able to accept all this when I have just experienced something unreasonable. I want the warmth and affection of others, it's something I've always wanted but can only condone. That's why I will try to live as Liyuna and replace the real Liyuna. Maybe there'll be some clarity on why this is all happening to me and why I'm here.

"Miss,-"

"Miss,- ... wake up!"

I could feel someone shaking my shoulder slowly. The voice of Yvette that I had just heard vaguely became very clear. I tried to open my eyes that felt very heavy and looked at Yvette who was standing in front of me with the stove-flavored ice cream that I ordered.

"Miss, don't sleep on the table and your body will hurt. If Miss wants to sleep, just sleep in the UKS" he said while offering ice cream my order earlier.

"Thank you Yvette. But if I sleep in the UKS I'll feel guilty for kids who are really sick."

"There's no need to feel that way, Miss does indeed have a weak body."

Hearing that, I could only grimace. I looked out the window at the other kids on the field doing sports. The ice cream stove that entered my mouth removed the heat I had felt. Now I feel a little cold because of this ice cream.

There were no three minutes I felt relieved by the ice cream, I saw a group of people wearing black-black clothes in front of the school gate. They look very suspicious because of all-black clothes and also sunglasses. Their bodies also look very muscular, just scary. Why there are people like them in this school.

"Yvette, who's that guy in black?" manya curious.

Hearing me ask, Yvette immediately turned to look at me and saw the all-black figure.

"Ah, I don't really know Miss. But it looks like they're the bodyguards of one of our seniors."

'Body guard? huh... school in the game is not normal.'

I became curious as to who the young master they served because the wealthy Liyuna had never been followed by a body guard to school. Jikan their master followed the body guard, what does it mean that he is so influential? Ah, but as I recall the target who was the same age as Liyuna was only Allen.

'There are indeed, characters with great power other than the target and Liyuna?'

At that time I did not realize that all the things that are happening right now will be interconnected in the future and walk slowly towards the flow that is in the game. But that's all, it's still going to be a few years to come. These are the times when everyone can still smile without burden and look happy.
