Definition: After 7 years, I returned from the world of romance fantasy novels to reality. Just when I thought I’d finally come back to a peaceful normal life… [Breaking News: An area around △△ Station has collapsed due to Esper Y’s rampage. The government has announced they will provide appropriate compensation…] Looking at my completely destroyed house, I realized something: this world was actually an urban fantasy. *** I started a small business to make ends meet. First, I learned that running a flower shop wasn’t my calling. Apparently, neither was running a rice ball shop—a Gate burst open right where it stood. Oh, and somewhere in between, I lost two more rented studios to Eun Woojin. With my last remaining pennies scraped together, I opened a café. And it became a huge success. *** “May I have your name for the loyalty card?” “I’m Woo-” When our eyes met, the man blushed slightly as he began to speak. At that exact moment, a booming voice blared from the television. [Fellow citizens!! Our nation’s pride, the ‘Messiah’ Guild, has achieved a world record for the fastest A-rank high-level Gate clearing!!] The overly excited reporter was announcing news about the Messiah Guild, led by Eun Woojin, the highest-ranking Esper. In an instant, all the cluttered thoughts in my head were wiped clean, replaced by pure black rage. My sworn enemy. The one who had forced me into a nomadic lifestyle. Grinding my teeth, I silently cursed. “That bastard Eun Woojin… Just wait till I get my hands on you.” “…” “Oh, I’m so sorry! So what did you say your name was? I heard Woo…” “Woo. Joo Wooyu,” the man answered, his face turning pale.

Like that, I stayed up all night and went to work the next day in the same condition. I barely managed to gather my depleted energy to finish my work, and while changing clothes in the locker room, a female part-time worker, who was changing clothes next to me, pointed at my clothes. “Huh? Sister, isn’t that from brand A?” “What?” "Wow, that seems to be it. And also the limited edition one? I heard it's priced at a premium right now, but I actually got to see it. Did you buy…-

This Joo Yunwoo person. As a low-level Esper, his abilities are estimated to be impractical attack-type. Although I didn't know what his actual job was, he seemed like someone who would be more successful as a model than as a low-level Awakener. That was all I knew about the person in front of me. “…..Come again? 80 million won?” And I also found out the price of the coat I had just thrown over and slept in. After finishing eating, I was the one who spoke up first, with the…-

SRSBO: Chapter 10
My Mom, who became a single mother due to my biological father’s affair, had to jump into the world of earning a living out of nowhere. Although she received money as alimony, it was absurdly insufficient to maintain her livelihood, let alone with a child. However, society was not kind toward her, as she had only a middle school education and no substantial work experience, having spent all her life doing housework. While raising me on her own, my Mom went through a lot of hardships, and perhaps…-

SRSBO: Chapter 9
The sound of fireworks bursting in the sky mixed with crimson hues and the excited cheers of the people. It was late in the afternoon when we arrived in the capital. People poured into the streets, shouting cheers for the heroes who had returned victorious from the war. It was finally over. I could finally take down the Campbell family. A bright smile naturally spread across my face in excitement. When I first became Amelia Campbell, I had no connections, no money, no honor, and nothing at all.…-

“F*ck my life!” I dodged the concrete that was bouncing up from all directions and jumped forward, stretching my hand as far as I could to grab his shoulder and tilting his head slightly. I immediately wrapped both of his cheeks with both of my hands. Then, I released the maximum amount of guiding force I could manage at that moment. I poured out all the guiding force I had in my palms. It seemed like the largest amount of guiding force I had ever released. Even so, it still wasn't…-

“Ah, there aren’t only people like that who bully others just because they are Espers. Maybe because of my line of work, I mostly just talk about negative things. But, there are also good Espers like Hyunwoo….” Han Siyoung said as she rolled her eyes awkwardly. I shrugged my shoulders slightly. "You don't need to bother convincing me about the good things. As I've said last time, you and Yang Hyunwoo are enough Awakeners in my life." “Still… I hope you meet a good Esper someday.…-

“Oh, yes. I would have gone to you if you had rang the bell.” “I rang it, but I don’t think you heard.” “…I apologize.” It seemed like I didn't hear because I was too focused on the task at hand. As I awkwardly apologized and looked up, I saw the man was staring at me intently. Again. I furrowed my brows slightly at his gaze, as if he were observing me. “Do you need anything?” “…What are those?” “Huh? Oh, coupons?” That's strange. According to another…-

The gazes of people around me naturally made me anxious. I nodded solemnly to myself without a smile and started talking nonsense. What I needed now was shamelessness. "Maybe by any chance... Ah, I see. I understand now. You must be curious about the hand cream I used! It's from the R brand, with a cozy, bready scent. It's really warm and nice, right?” “….” "I love bread, so if you're interested, you can try the ones at Maldive Young. They have a variety of scents like bread, cake,…-

"But aside from the good sides, there are also a lot of bad points, right? Even though they're both Awakeners, unlike Espers, Guides don't have the physical strength to protect themselves." “But do you know that the Guides are the only people who can hold the Esper’s leash and control them? Guides can live without the Espers, but Espers cannot survive without Guides.” I firmly shook my head at those words. "A leash? A Guide can't choose the method of their own guiding. Just physical contact…-

SRSBO: Chapter 3
A year later. The collapsed house was just the beginning. A story far worse than that was waiting for me. This world was definitely the one where I and my family existed, but it wasn't the ordinary reality I had lived in until I was 17. It had been a long time since the world had transformed into a modern fantasy world, like something straight out of a novel. The moment I opened my eyes in the hospital room, I was bombarded with countless news, and every single one of them was a shock after…-
