Possessor #2 Just Wants to Fangirl Chapter 126

Before my eyes stand 8 orc warriors.

Green-skinned muscle pigs wearing something like leather skirts, each swinging the clubs in their hands.

“Squeal! Squeal! Humans!”

“Squeal! Kill! Squeeeeal!”

Every time the orcs breathe, sounds like from a steam iron emerge.

‘Oh my! They really do squeal! They’re ugly! They look stupid!!!’

Since orcs are also a first for me, I’m observing eagerly when Ki Hyeonmin’s refined voice came from right beside me.

“I’ll handle them. Hold onto Yeon Sora.”

Instantly Juwan grabbed my right arm, and Boram clung to my left. Both looking at me with worry-filled eyes.

“Sora, better you don’t move. You just lost consciousness earlier.”

“R-right! S-Sora is righteous but n-now’s not the time to be righteous!”

“Never let go! Hold tight so she can’t run away!”

Seong Hayul was nagging from behind to properly restrain me. The whole atmosphere is preventing me from moving.

My head tilted involuntarily.

“Everyone thinks I’m going to fight? Why?”

“You always overdo it.”

“S-Sora is kind!”

“You’ll obviously rush out without thinking! Haven’t we been through this before?”

“……”

Only Gyeon Junhwi stays silent. Junhwi has been observing me closely since the Boogeyman test—seems I caused a major setting error.

‘If he’d just ask, I’d answer…’

Since he won’t, I can’t explain even if I want to.

But this meticulousness is my baby’s strength!

Thinking that while nodding when my mind snapped back to attention.

“Squeal! Squeal! Kill!!!!”

“Squeal squeal!”

The sound signaling battle’s start.

Right, now’s not the time for other thoughts!

The important moment is right before my eyes!

Whiiiirrr—

I quickly deployed the Drone Eye. Positioning the camera right above the orc group and watching forward, my heart is pounding like crazy.

‘Finally… Hyeonmin’s using the holy sword!’

He used the sword earlier too, but Boogeymen aren’t combat-specialized monsters, so it was just one quick swing.

But! Right now is combat with orc warriors!

I’m dying of curiosity whether the item I tributed will actually help my baby, what kind of reaction Hyeonmin will show!

While my heart raced with anticipation—

Thud, thud.

Ki Hyeonmin moved calmly. The orc warriors lowered their stances, preparing to fight in earnest.

Sliiiide—

Ki Hyeonmin drew his sword from its sheath and kicked off the ground, leaping.

Pure white brilliance settled in midair.

The sword isn’t visible, but where it passes leaves white afterimages. The afterimages don’t disappear, carving a dazzling sword path in the air.

The line extending straight curves. Embroidering countless curves, drawing a brilliant pattern.

Thud— Thuuud—

Eight orcs collapse.

Fwoooosh—

Only then does the sword path drawn in midair scatter. Small particles of light fall beautifully like heavy snow before disappearing.

The monsters collapsed on the floor have no necks. But they didn’t scream, didn’t spill blood.

The holy sword cleanly took only their lives without pain! And all this happened in the time it takes to blink a few times.

“Wow…”

“Amazing…”

“I-impressive.”

Looking to the side, all team members have their mouths hanging open. Ki Hyeonmin performed the swordsmanship, but I feel so proud.

Yes! This is our Hyeonmin’s sword dance! My baby shows such heavenly movements when properly equipped!

‘As expected, a holy sword for Ki Hyeonmin!’

If he’d used another legendary-grade sword, there wouldn’t have been those sparkly effects. But the incredibly good-aligned Ki Hyeonmin shows amazing compatibility with items featuring keywords like holy sword, saint, salvation.

Because my baby is this world’s light!

Getting drunk on pride alone… is not the time. I hurriedly operated the Drone Eye to zoom in on Ki Hyeonmin’s face.

‘……’

And was left speechless.

‘…He’s smiling?’

Ki Hyeonmin’s smile, witnessed for the first time since possession. His mouth corners maintain a straight line, but his eye corners curl slightly, smiling only with his eyes.

This time moisture really welled up in my eyes.

‘As expected, tributing was the right choice!’

For Ki Hyeonmin who rarely smiles to already show such an expression—as expected, possessing was the right choice!

This is why I died young! Right, to fangirl over 2D, dying young is essential!

While I poured out self-praise, Ki Hyeonmin looked down at the orc corpses briefly, then spun around and returned to us.

“Staying long will attract others. Move quickly during this gap.”

An expressionless face, but my nano-observation caught an important detail.

Ki Hyeonmin didn’t sheath his sword. Even several fingers gripping the sword handle are fidgeting.

‘He wants to do more!’

He wants to test the holy sword’s functions after finally obtaining it, but the orcs were too weak and it ended too quickly.

My baby seems quite disappointed about that. But I can help with such matters.

“Ah… wait!”

I quickly placed my hand on my forehead and staggered before sitting down with a thud.

This is why the sickly setting is good.

Yeon Sora can fake illness anytime.

“Hey, Yeon Sora!”

“S-Sora! Wh-what’s wrong!”

“Sorry, I suddenly feel weak…”

“Are you okay? Can you walk?”

“Urp! Motion sickness…”

I even dry heaved, but Gyeon Junhwi watching me has eyelashes fluttering like a fan. That means ‘I don’t believe it.’

‘Our Hyeonmin was so excited, let’s let him play for just 10 minutes!’

…Saying such things won’t work—Junhwi will obviously oppose. Gyeon Junhwi values efficiency.

But something unexpected happened.

“Let’s rest briefly. Yeon Sora shouldn’t overdo it.”

Gyeon Junhwi overlooked my fake illness and declared a break. Thanks to that, we could encounter a new group of orcs.

“Squeal! Squeal! Humans!”

“I’ll clean up. Take care of Yeon Sora here.”

Ki Hyeonmin rushed out like lightning and swung the holy sword again, while I pretended to have motion sickness while diligently filming that sight.

After the battle ended, I checked my baby’s face—seems he’s still not satisfied.

“Urp! S-sorry. Why this motion sickness… urp!”

Thanks to my fake illness, Ki Hyeonmin could face orc groups four times. And I… secured incredible footage.

Ki Hyeonmin’s mouth corners rising 0.5 degrees in a proper smile. Since he’s a child who suffered constantly, his smile is awkward… but that clumsy appearance is actually the fatal charm point.

‘I… could ascend to heaven like this!’

Repeatedly dying and reviving like that, but it was gradually time to stop playing and work.

Because Ki Hyeonmin sheathed his sword himself.

“We really need to move now.”

Though regret still fills his face, he seems to think now isn’t the time for this.

My baby has strong responsibility, so he’s not a child who throws away work to play.

Meaning it’s time to end the fake illness.

“I think I’m okay now! Let’s hurry!”

I jumped up and moved immediately.

Need to find the fairy quickly. Then our Hyeonmin can comfortably play while swinging his holy sword!

* * *

“The ground is weak here. Watch my footprints and follow exactly.”

This area’s ground looks fine on the surface, but step wrong and it sinks into swampland. Ordinary people would struggle, but with Ki Hyeonmin here, no need to worry.

His blunt yet subtly attentive way of guiding the path is exactly like a guide dog.

As expected, Hyeonmin has large dog qualities, right?

We moved through narrow alleys rather than main streets.

How long did we walk like that?

Ki Hyeonmin stopped before a 5-story building and looked back at us.

“We’ll rest here briefly.”

This is one of the fairy spawn locations we narrowed down.

While Ki Hyeonmin cleared concrete debris in front of the building, Gyeon Junhwi informed us of precautions via DM.

|Gyeon Junhwi| You know what to do when entering the building, right?

|Gyeon Junhwi| Yeon Sora, please position the Drone Eye

We’re trying to find the fairy now. But nothing good comes from being caught.

The instructional Drone Eye currently floating above us, the invisible Drone Eye the secretary uncle told us about—we need to shake them off and move.

A tricky task, but no worries about this either.

‘I just need to follow instructions.’

There’s a setting where Drone Eyes maintain proper distance to prevent mutual collision—if I position my Drone Eye at specific coordinates, other cameras can’t follow.

I don’t know the exact principle, but I don’t need to. Our Junhwi knows.

Following Gyeon Junhwi’s instructions, I entered the building interior when the next directive was delivered.

“Yeon Sora, better to have your Drone Eye monitor the entrance. Orcs might come.”

Meaning leave it downstairs since the chairwoman can also view footage I record.

After shaking off all cameras like that—

“Here.”

We arrived at our destination, the 3rd floor.

The once-ordinary office had become a disaster space. According to information we obtained, the fairy supposedly emerged from a mirror hanging right next to this office’s entrance.

Fortunately, that mirror hung on the wall intact in its original form. But there’s no fairy.

“Is this the place from your dream?”

“Yeah.”

“What did you do in the dream?”

I don’t know. I never had such a dream. I just narrowed down likely locations since the side quest said there’s a fairy on Floor 2.

Still, everyone’s looking at me, so I should pretend to know.

“First, take down that mirror. We’ll clear the floor.”

While Ki Hyeonmin took down the wall-hung mirror, we cleared debris scattered on the floor and made open space.

After laying the mirror flat on the floor and touching it, nothing’s detected. I’d definitely thought mana would be felt…

Even checking the mirror at 1cm intervals while feeling around, there’s nothing.

“……”

“……”

Silence flows. Feels like I can hear the sound of the skilled fortune-teller’s reputation dropping.

“Can you flip this mirror over?”

At my words, Ki Hyeonmin flipped the mirror, and I felt around the mirror’s back again.

Fortunately, this time dampness was detected at my fingertips.

‘It’s here!’

Faintly felt mana energy. While feeling around confirming its shape, the pattern seems similar to skill boards that appear during class.

“Anyone have a pen?”

“Here!”

I started working with the pen Boram handed me.

Detecting mana with one hand, tracing that path to draw the pattern with the other hand produced a magic circle form.

“What magic circle is this?”

“I don’t know either.”

“You drew it, how can you not know?”

“What do you want me to do when I don’t know?”

I ignored Seong Hayul’s interrogation and channeled mana following the magic circle’s form.

The moment that pattern completed—

Crash!

The mirror shattered.

The mirror shattered into pieces reassembled itself into a small glass birdcage.

Click-click-click-click-click—

The moment the last piece completed, familiar mist appeared.

The space-like mist I’d seen once before. Strange mist with nebulae and stars scattered in black space.

I involuntarily grew wary and stepped back when—

Fwoooosh—

The mist disappeared and something appeared in the birdcage’s center. A palm-sized human. A blonde girl with wings.

Only then did I exhale in relief and smile.

“It’s the fairy!”
