A monster in human flesh
𝙅𝙚𝙤𝙣 𝙅𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙠𝙤𝙤𝙠… 𝙅𝙚𝙤𝙣 𝙅𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙠𝙤𝙤𝙠… 𝙅𝙚𝙤𝙣 𝙅𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙠𝙤𝙤𝙠… 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙚…
If someone had told me a few days ago that my heart would beat like drums after hearing a stranger’s name, I would have laughed straight in their face and called them a fantasy moth.
How can a dead man’s heart beat? One who never felt any emotions, who is a humanoid monster…
“A monster in human flesh,” or “a devil descended to wreak havoc.” That’s what they all said. And that’s what I really am.
Even if I let go of my soul, it still won’t perish in the vast universe.
I wonder… will I ever be released from this tormented curse?
Kim Taehyung
I apologise for my lack of professionalism and disruptive behaviour.
Kim Taehyung
As much as I am ashamed of my behaviour, I still wish for my seniors to show leniency on this junior. *He bows, fidgeting his fingers in nervousness*
Min Yoongi
Detective Kim, please calm down. We won’t hold you accountable for such a minor disturbance. However, we hope you keep your emotions under the radar in order to cooperate with us.
Inside the building of the Seoul Police Headquarters, Floor No. 4, Room No. 417 — also known as the Criminal Affairs Division.
A middle-aged man dressed in a police uniform sat at the round table, where many officers had previously conducted investigative trials and meetings. The police officer, cold and strict, glared at Taehyung to show his visible discontent.
Meanwhile, the active mediator of the conference had already forgiven the man responsible for the disturbance in a heartbeat.
On one side, the attorney glanced at Taehyung with warm features. The inspector, however, was boring holes into his soul with that serious expression.
And the troublemaker himself?
The Detective is freaking out inside.
You’re wondering why? Well — surprise!
Taehyung himself has no idea.
He has always been calm and collected, indifferent toward everything.
Yet now, his heart wishes to burst out of his chest — as if it wants to escape.
And the reason?
A name.
A stranger’s name.
He’s damn sure he’s never heard it. Ever.
Lee Dong Wook
Detective Kim Taehyung, this mistake must not happen again. *He commanded, without mercy*
Kim Taehyung
Uh—yes, Officer Lee. I’m thankful to both my seniors, and I will try my best to live up to your expectations.
*He smiles, apologetically*
Min Yoongi
Well then, The Meeting is adjourned, Gentlemen.
Min Yoongi
Before leaving, I have already emailed both of you the rest of case details. By tomorrow, the incident will become public, and the media outrage will be overwhelming.
Kim Taehyung
Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yoongi. I’ll take my leave now. *He elegantly stood up from his chair, eyes focused on Yoongi*
Min Yoongi
You too, Mr. Taehyung, I hope to see you around more often. *He said, while giving his signature, gummy smile*
Lee Dong Wook
Tomorrow, At 7 in the morning, Reach the murder site before the police arrive.
Moving away from the round conference table, Inspector Lee glanced at Taehyung and delivered the order in an imposing cadence, leaving no room for refusal.
Taehyung caught the underlying meaning behind the inspector’s vague command and responded with firm affirmation.
Kim Taehyung
I understand, Sir. *He responds, giving a light salute*
Without another word, Detective Kim turned on his heel and exited the conference room with long strides.
Behind him, two individuals stared at his retreating figure, their gazes holding purposeful intent.
After he left, the attorney glanced — deliberately — at the officer. However, finding no explanation for the flicker of curiosity in his chest, he could only swallow the rising sourness.
Bidding a polite farewell to the Senior Inspector, who responded with nothing more than a curt nod. The attorney took his leave. Meanwhile, The Inspector remains silent, brooding alone, perhaps thinking about the case.
Kim Taehyung
What the hell is going on!
Peeking into the luxury car, a silhouette sits in the driver’s seat — with the posture of a military commander and the outline of a model.
Soft bangs envelop his entire forehead, curtaining his eyebrows. Beneath them are those ethereal, shining orbs — almond-shaped yet so sharp, as if a blade is pointed at your neck.
So dangerous… So seductive…
Those chiseled piercings, dangling a shiny earring — not for style, but for spying.
Nose tip so sharp, it rattles nerves like broken glass.
And boom… the world couldn’t be prepared enough, getting soaked in the sight of his bloody lips.
If his face was wine, I’d down it raw.
If it was poison? My death would be so intoxicating and pure.
What a pity…
it was never mine to worship, never meant to be owned…
Those eyes were burning with fury, frowns were drawn on his forehead, and the way his eyebrows were raised in scepticism— the fangirls would understand in a heartbeat. Yet, they couldn’t even compare to those luscious lips, contorted into a sneer.
Kim Taehyung
How could I lose control over a name, It doesn’t make any sense.
Kim Taehyung
What is going on, I need an explanation, 𝙎𝙮𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙢.
System-sama(001)
Host! It’s System-Sama!
Kim Taehyung
I don’t give a fuck, Now Will you explain me what’s going on, Or do you want me to-
System-sama(001)
Host! You are such a bully! You promised 001–you wouldn’t blackmail me again.
Kim Taehyung
Dare make me repeat myself one more time, and I’ll replace you with 002.
System-sama(001)
Boohoo, Host, You don’t love 001 anymore!!
System-sama(001)
…Alright! Fine!
System-sama(001)
From the data analysis: the Host experienced hyperventilation and heart palpitations once the villain’s name was revealed.
System-sama(001)
001 is unable to determine the exact reason behind the reaction.
However… the way you responded on reflex suggests you’ve heard that name before.
Kim Taehyung
So, you are useless?
Kim Taehyung
Thought so, uh wait- what did you said? The villain?
System-sama(001)
Yes host, The Villain, 𝙅𝙚𝙤𝙣 𝙅𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙠𝙤𝙤𝙠
Exactly. Who is this Jeon Jungkook? The villain?
Until now, the almighty Kim Taehyung’s heart never once throbbed— not a single nervous string.
Yet here it is, pounding like it’ll explode from the sheer constriction of his own heart walls.
System-sama(001)
It’s happening again! Just like how it transpired in the conference room! UwU~ Does my host have a heart condition!?
Kim Taehyung
It’s just a fucking name! Are you sure, it’s not the original owner’s emotional response?
System-sama(001)
Nooo! Host, 001 is damn sure!
The original owner of this body never met the villain.
System-sama(001)
And not just that—System-sama scanned your body thoroughly.
There’s no lingering trace of the detective’s consciousness remaining!
Kim Taehyung
Tch. That’s impossible. I’ve never heard that name before.
You must’ve glitched, System. Run a self-diagnosis.
System-sama(001)
Liar! Neural spikes don’t lie, Host,
Heart rate: 123 bpm. Skin temperature drop: 1.6°C. Pupillary dilation: 38%. All indicating a panic reaction to an external stimulus.
Kim Taehyung
Alright, Enough! *He glares, not pleased by such results*
If denial had a favorite candidate, it would be Kim Taehyung for sure.
It’s not that he never admit to something,
It’s just, there was never anything to agree on in the first place.
Whether it’s the racing thoughts or the quickened heartbeat,
They must halt on his command.
No exceptions.
System-sama(001)
TwT Host, You are scaring 001!
Kim Taehyung
It’s time to be serious now, 001, If I am a detective here, then what’s the plot for this world?
System-sama(001)
On it Host! Since 001 is a diligent and professional system-sama! •~•
System-sama(001)
The plot of this arc is-
