A FAMILIAR BLUE EYES.

Yujun woke up from his slumber and found his space empty. "Do you want to purchase incense?" Wanda asked. "Sure," Yujun agreed, not fully understanding why he needed incense but going along with it. As Wanda set it up, a rush of unfamiliar memories flooded Yujun's mind, causing him a headache. Although the incense slightly reduced the pain, Yujun didn't pay much attention to it. After a while, the influx of memories ceased, leaving Yujun puzzled. "What the hell was that?" Yujun asked, rubbing his head.

Wanda responded, "Just a little aftermath. Do you want to check your stats?"

"Sure," Yujun replied, still massaging his head in a circular motion.

"Checking the updated version of Choi Yujun's stats," Wanda said.

"Host, you can upgrade to level one," Wanda suggested.

"Upgrade," Yujun agreed.

"Transferring EP. Transfer successful," Wanda confirmed.

[Level: Pre-Novice (1)]

[Experience points: 0]

Yujun stared at his strength stat and could sense Wanda's mocking tone. "Why is my strength only '5'? Should we test it? Wanda, you're so wicked," Yujun expressed his disapproval.

"Let's go to the system space," Yujun suggested, and Wanda opened a passage. They both walked through it.

The place they both went to was different from last time. This time, they stood in front of a club, and strangely enough, the noise didn't pass through the door. "Let's go party," Wanda said, opening the door and entering the club with Yujun. Inside, the club was lousy and lively, with people dancing or engaging in intimate moments at every corner. Even the dance floor wasn't left behind, with colorful lights emanating from the disco ball.

"Cool, right?" Wanda asked, wearing a grin as her clothes transformed into a mini gown.

"Yeah, cool," Yujun replied, moving towards the bar area. The bartender asked, "What drink would you like?"

"Can I get a Bloody Mary, please?" Yujun requested, a smile forming on his lips.

"Sure," the bartender said.

In the club, Yujun the man with snow-white hair and foxy-shaped, curved eyes sitting on a chair. He was accompanied by a woman with black eyes and dark purple hair. Both of them were drop-dead gorgeous and drew attention from others. Wanda asked, "Host, should we go back?"

"Not yet. I'm quite bored, so I have to entertain myself," Yujun replied, dropping his empty cocktail glass. Suddenly, he heard someone say, "Hey, beautiful." Yujun turned to face the person and found himself captivated by the man's striking allure. The man had captivating green eyes that held a world of mystery within them, and his blonde hair cascaded in soft waves, accentuating his features and adding an effortless charm to his appearance.

"What do you want?" Yujun asked.

"Nothing. I thought you needed some human company," the man, named Hunter, replied.

"I don't. Now, fuck off before I make you," Yujun responded, not in the mood to play.

"Hey, we could be friends. My name is Hunter," the man persisted.

"I didn't mean to offend you, okay? So let's chill and forget it," Hunter suggested, but Yujun remained silent.

"I haven't seen you around, newbie," Hunter remarked.

"Yes," Yujun replied curtly, showing disinterest.

"Okay, cool. So, which world did you go to?" Hunter inquired, but Yujun ignored him. Wanda chimed in, "Take a hint, my host doesn't want you here."

"I think I'm ready for the next world," Yujun declared, standing up.

"Hey, can I at least get your number?" Hunter shouted.

"Three!" Yujun shouted back, baffling Hunter.

Back in Yujun's neutral space, he lingered for a while before saying, "Open system store." A hologram appeared, displaying various options:

[Food Store] *unlocked*

[Weapon Store] *unlocked*

[Book Store] *unlocked*

[Clothes Store] *unlocked*

[Fighting Skills] *locked*

[Special Items] *locked*

Yujun saw and clicked on the weapon store first. A list of different weapons caught his eye, such as katanas, gauntlets, and guns, but their prices were exorbitant. "What the fuck, Wanda? Are you really scamming your own host?" Yujun questioned.

"No, that price is normal," Wanda replied.

"A sword for a fucking million points? What the heck, Wanda?" Yujun exclaimed.

"The next mission is here, host," Wanda informed him.

"Guess I'll settle for an Earring knife," Yujun decided as he left his space.

Luck waited patiently for his new host to arrive, but there was no sign of him. Just as Luck was about to go back and report the situation, he caught sight of his host's body. Standing there was a remarkably handsome man with cold blue eyes. He might have had a chiseled, angular face with defined cheekbones and a strong jawline. His piercing and intense icy blue eyes might have exuded an air of mystery and aloofness. His hair might have been dark, styled in a sleek and sophisticated manner, or perhaps with a slightly tousled and edgy look. He could have possessed a tall and lean build, along with a confident and commanding presence. His demeanor might have been reserved, yet there was a hint of playfulness in his expression. Overall, his striking appearance and confidence might have drawn people to him like a magnet, making him stand out from the crowd.

Luck stared into the familiar cold blue eyes and a sense of déjà vu washed over him. "You," Luck uttered, feeling a strong connection to this person. "Where am I?" the man asked, clearly disoriented.

"Do you remember your past life?" Luck asked, hoping for a different answer.

"No, I only know my name," the man with blue eyes replied.

"What is your name?" Luck inquired, a sense of dread creeping over him as he anticipated the response.

"Kim Ji-hun," the man answered, confirming Luck's fears.
