I Became the Younger Sister of the Game's Villain - Chapter 4.2
“It’s been a while.”
When was the last time I used this cheat event?
It seemed I hadn’t visited after surpassing 300 hours of playtime.
It’s not fun if it’s too easy.
Touching the back of the Son Byeong Hee statue’s hand like rubbing a magic lamp reverently, the statue, bathed in light all the while, felt warm.
【’Strength’ Proficiency: +35.721%】
‘It works.’
And with tremendous effect.
Perhaps it was due to being FFF rank, but the proficiency accumulated was huge.
The statue’s buff effect only activated ten times.
I couldn’t afford to waste precious time on a challenge that could be overcome quickly if I tried.
I slapped my burning palms together and rubbed the statue.
Thud. And then another thud. Thud.
“My arm’s going to fall off.”
I grabbed my tattered shoulder and hopped off the podium.
The sun’s glare, combined with the statue’s reflection, burned my face like a heat stroke.
In the game, all I needed to do was press the Q button, but…
‘In reality, it’s not that easy.’
Gu Seo Bok, who was sitting in the shade of a nearby gazebo, came over with a disgusted expression.
He offered a refreshing water bottle.
“If you look from here, only the statue’s hand is shaking. Do you know?”
Ignoring his sarcastic tone, I checked the status window first.
【Strength: F】
Not bad results in a short time.
Well, considering it’s FFF rank to F rank, it was an extraordinary improvement that would usually take tens of hours in Akka for an FFF rank.
‘But still not enough.’
Lee Moa’s body was still far from the goal.
I furrowed my brow slightly as I mentally checked the points and routes I needed to go.
“Mister.”
“Yes? I get scared when you call me that.”
I gestured towards the tearful looking Gu Seo Bok.
“Hurry and get the car.”
I needed to gather all the buffs available.

“Oh, I’m sorry, sorry… We suddenly received a portal report, yes, yes.”
Gu Seo Bok’s voice, bowing repeatedly to the police officer, was broadcast through the BGM.
I put my wet shoes on the car hood and rested my chin in my hands.
An uncomfortable index finger was tapping the body faster and faster.
【Status】
Name: Lee Moa / 15 years old
Title: –
Comprehensive Hunter Rank: ?? (Updating ↺)
Strength: E
Intelligence: C
Agility: DD
Exclusive Skill: Faint Warmth (Lv.2) (Locked)
Not a bad result, similar to what I imagined.
It’s a bit of a shame that I didn’t climb any stairs at the end, as I was only going for intelligence…….
Anyway, I scrubbed the third stone of the Jongmyo Altar, photographed the fire hydrant in the second block of Clock Alley, and finally scrambled through the middle of Cheonggyecheon Stream.
I almost died of nerves as I scrubbed dozens of stones and checked to see if I was running out of time.
That made me even more nervous.
I couldn’t just waste my carefully saved time, like garbage on the ground, here before the finale. But Gu Seo Bok didn’t seem to have such thoughts.
“Hey, just take a look, sir. Wouldn’t it be like that for anyone performing public service duties? Hahaha!”
He was still diligently wiping his palms.
From speeding to violating traffic signals—a police officer had stuck to the lawbreaker on the road.
All thanks to me, of course, for whining at him to go faster.
So, stay in the car, I said.
He followed me as I ran, abandoning my car in a no-parking zone, and finally gave me this ticket.
As I got into the car with a big sigh, Gu Seo Bok finally got the memo.
He winked at the policeman and climbed giddily into the driver’s seat.
“Miss, you’re going to get a hefty fine.”
Gu Seo Bok shook the loot, yellow tickets, obtained from the failed negotiation.
“Guilds have plenty of money anyway.”
“I doubt you’ve saved up to pay for such illegal activities.”
I ignored the snarky tone and leaned back in my seat.
I didn’t care if I had to report to Lee Gyeom.
