"Everyone... Take a look over here." When the teacher noticed that the students were still chatting among themselves, he gave up.

"Yes, yes. You guys don't plan on listening to me, either way," he said.

Chomi felt bad for the teacher who was making an effort to teach the class, despite the fact that she wasn't even listening because she was finished with their topic, I mean she was older than the students around her, so basic math in middle school is like a flee.

"Is that Ban Yeoryeong?"

"She's stunning..."

Dan I pressed her lips together in a thin line, trying to focus on the teacher. However, Ban Yeoryeong's piercing stares made her uneasy, and her gaze was drawn to Chomi, who sat in front of the colorful people.

Dan I turned her head slightly and noticed the four attractive boys she had met today. Ju-in sat with Ji-ho, and Eunhyung sat with Yoo Chunyoung. They were, as expected, standing out among their peers.

'Are they modeling for photoshoot?' Dan- I gaped at the sight. How can they be so attractive when they're only in their freshman year of high school?

Ju-in turned his head, causing Dan-I to flinch when their gazes locked. Then he gave her a big close-eyed fluff smile, flowers seemed to be blooming in the background, and he shone far brighter than he usually did.

'But why? Why is it that no one notices their unusual hair and eye colors?! Sure, they're attractive, but is it natural for Koreans to have those colors?!'

"Isn't that Hyeon Chomi?" An extra boy stated.

When the mentioned girl turned her head to her back and saw an unimportant character, she simply blinked at him before nodding. She then falls into a deep slumber while using her arms as pillows.

'I'm sleepy,' she reasoned before falling asleep.

The chattering continued, "Do you know them?" A girl sitting next to Dan-I questioned.

"Ah... We just came in together because I was late. We definitely don't know each other." Dan-I replied, turning her head away from her seatmate.

The girl in the back then began to whisper to them. "Do you know who that boy is, Eun Ji-ho? He's always ridden in a limousine to school since he was in elementary school! He is said to be the son of a wealthy family!"

"No way! He's both attractive and wealthy?!"

"Yep! He also won first place in the entire school!" She then lowered her voice and calmed herself in order to control her excitement. "He and the boy next to him, Woo Ju-in, have known each other since they were children." The girl explained it to them, sounding suspiciously like she was introducing characters in a web novel.

"Ju-in is extremely easy to get along with! He has a fantastic personality!"

"Aww. He's so adorable..."

"His IQ is said to be over 200. He remembers everything with just one look!"

"Wow. Amazing!"

Dan-I was then brought back to the moment Ji-ho told her that if Ju-in didn't remember it, it meant the school didn't exist in Seoul. "Ah..." So, he was telling the truth.

"Eunhyung also appears to have a pleasant personality!" Her seatmate called out. "He was previously elected as class president by the students at our school!"

"Wow, he's such a good student!"

Dan-I frowned when none of her classmates mentioned the sleeping girl; of course, her classmate noticed who she was staring at and said, "Hyeon Chomi,"

"Oh, I've heard a lot about her; they say if you stare at her eyes, you'll vanish without a trace. Despite her beauty, she was cold, intimidating, and frightening! I heard she was emotionless, with only deadpanning and solemn expressions all the time!"

They whispered as Dan I sweatdrops at some myth they were telling.

"But those guys... Can we call them the Four Heavenly Kings?"

As if lightning had struck behind her, Dan I paled and cringed at the nickname. She reasoned that this had to be a novel, that something like this couldn't be real.

Dan I flinched when she saw Chomi's  eyes meet hers. Chomi was glaring unconsciously, though she was just watching the interaction between Dan I and some extra girls there and had even heard some about her.

Chomi noticed Dan I's tenseness and wondered, 'Am I really that frightening?'

The girls beside her look back where Dan I was staring and shiver when they notice Chomi looking in their direction,  Chomi's eyes bore into their sole.

'I woke up just to listen to their conversation; now they're really quiet because they caught me staring; I guess I'm really frightening.'

"Who is ban yeoryeong?

'Oh, I remember this scene.' Chomi was amusedly looking around with an imaginary red and blue glass in her eyes.

Most of them turned to look at Ban Yeoryeong, who frowned lightly at the attention she had just received. "...It's me."

Ji-ho approached her. "You're the one who came in first?"

"Yeah. So what?" Yeoryeong replied coldly.

Ji-ho smirked at Yeoryeong's bravery in responding to him, and the class became more wary of the rivalry that had occurred in the blink of an eye. "Interesting. You just have to wait. I'm not going to be easy with you on the next exam."

Despite being irritated by his attitude, Yeoryeong maintained a straight face. "Seriously? Were you being easy with me?"

He sneered and turned away. "We'll have to wait and see."

The intense aura was abruptly broken when Chomi sneezed cutely, "Achoo..." she sniffed and wiped her nose with a handkerchief.

Silence.

'Ah shi- I ruin something, didn't I?'

"Ah... Go on, I'm not looking." She turned away and stared out the window, hoping that this embarrassing moment would soon be over.

They didn't notice the blush on Chomi's face because of her stoic expression and quick turn away.

"You're incredible! You're the first girl to ever approach him in that manner!"

"Ji-ho?" A dumbfounded Yeo-ryeong asked. "Yep that guy's name is Eun Ji-ho, and I'm Woo Ju-In!"

"How is it possible that she doesn't know Ji-ho?"

"Perhaps that's her way of getting his attention." The two girls exchanged shocked looks.

"Anyway, you're the first person I've ever seen win against Ji-ho, so let's be friends!" He shook her hand, but she remained dumbfounded.

'Haha... it feels like I've been thrown in a play,' Dan-I thought, looking at the red and blue male haired with a smirk on their faces. Dan I's gaze is drawn to the woman with dark violet hair who appears to be preoccupied with her thoughts.

'SKSISN LET ME PINCH MY CHEEK IF I'M NOT DREAMING, PLEASE DON'T BE A DREAM, I WANTED A DRAMA BUT A ROMANTIC ONE PLEASE—' Yes, these are her thoughts.

Then she pinched her cheeks... She was in pain. A background sound of angelic music appears to overpower her happiness. 'YAY! After all these years of suffering, fate has finally granted me happiness!'

Chomi was celebrating everything inside her head while Dan I was suffering.
