I Am Not The Female Lead!
Episode 3 : The Empire's Rose
Hanna thought as she rested on the soft luxurious bed.
Hanna
( This room is not that bad though, it's well ventilated and bright. The bed and pillows are fluffy and I can tell that the furnitures are expensive. )
Thinking of the current situation, Hanna started to have a frown on her face.
Hanna
( A luxurious life, I'm even getting taken care of. Just one ring from this bell and the maids are already rushing over... no need to wake up in the morning to rush over to school or even worry about not being able to review enough for tests. )
Hanna
( I should be happy to have such privileged life right? )
Hanna
( I mean this is not so bad, even the food is of high quality. I have a roof over my head, I don't need to struggle or suffer out in the streets. )
Hanna
Is this what they call "gaslighting"? F*cking hell.
Hanna
As if I could ever get used to this!
Saying that, Hanna jumped out of the bed planning to stomp.
Hanna
Agh, I forgot I sprained my ankle a while ago.
Hanna
( It's all because of my sister. )
Hanna
This world I'm currently in is...
Hanna
( A novel my younger sister used to read. )
Hyuna
Why are you down here? Need something?
Hyunki
I went to fetch some water and snacks in the fridge.
Hyuna
The thing is... I got a new novel to recommend to you! Look!
His younger sister Baek Hyuna brought up a book with a shiny rose filled cover on it showcasing two characters who were the female and the male lead of the novel.
Hyunki
( Ugh that's one flashy cover. This is a hard pass. )
Hyuna
Well...yes, you liked that one I showed you a few days ago so here's another one!
Hyuna
It's just nice to see the both of us like the same things haha
Hyunki
( That's quite convincing. )
Hyunki
I'll give it a try.
With that, Hyuna cheerfully handed the book over to her brother.
Hyunki
In exchange, you have to read the one I recommended to you as well.
Hyunki
You haven't started any of them have you?
Hyunki
You don't have to beat around the bush. Just go and read whenever you feel like it.
Hyunki said while ruffling his sister's hair.
Hyuna
Okay, but hey! Don't mess with my hair!
He smiled mischievously in response and left Hyuna.
Hyunki
( I still have to study for physics and biology tomorrow... )
Hyunki
( What a pain in the neck, I wanted to try out that new gal game. )
Hyunki
( Gwansik said it was the real deal... )
Hyunki came back to his room on the second floor bringing water and food along with him. He was a hard-working high school student on his last year about to enter university.
Hyunki
( I'm addicted to this game, I didn't know the plotline would be this good. )
Hyunki
( The characters have a lot to offer as well, from cute to beautiful ladies and their personalities doesn't feel more like NPCs. )
He continued playing as he munched on chips.
Hyunki
( Snap out of it! I should stop playing this! )
At that time, he figured that he should do something to be able to get away from the desire to keep playing.
He ended up noticing the book with a "flashy cover", the novel his sister just gave him.
Hyunki
( Maybe I should read this. It looks boring enough. )
Hyunki
What a cringey name.
Hyunki
I'll read it yeah, I need to get away from this amazing game.
He thought as he flipped the first page of the book in his hands.
