Godsent Top Star [EN]: Chapter 340

340. Update Complete (1)

October 6, 2022

These folks.

Have they been here so long they’ve gone a little strange?

‘What part of him makes him look like a less fortunate neighbor?’

Yeonwoo fell into deep doubt.

Gabriel Elysia looked wealthy at a glance.

‘Even what he’s wearing doesn’t look unfortunate.’

Yeonwoo might not know much about brands or luxury goods, but his eye for them has improved since entering this world.

Yeonwoo could easily tell that the clothes that crazy guy was wearing were absolutely not just picked up randomly.

Judging by the texture and the way they perfectly fit his body, they were at least from a luxury brand, if not custom-made.

[Wow. Yeonwoo, the way the actor takes care of you is already top-notch, but wow, that guy……]

Left to his own devices, Yeonwoo would just grab whatever.

What’s so special about clothes?

‘If it’s comfortable, it’s all good.’

As long as it’s not a colorful traditional jacket or modernized hanbok [Korean traditional clothing].

He’s overcome those memories in his own way, but……

Beyond a long-standing trauma, it just doesn’t suit him aesthetically.

That’s why Kwon Seonghyun is entirely in charge of Yeonwoo’s styling.

-Stylist? Why do you need one? Yeonwoo has me, doesn’t he?

To the comment that it was too expensive,

-Our company isn’t so bad that it can’t even provide this kind of support to its affiliated celebrities.

That was the answer he received.

‘That’s weird. Everyone else seems to say these things are sponsorships……’

But Kwon Seonghyun, who knows the entertainment industry better than anyone, said so, so it must be true.

Sometimes, Woo Dogyeom does crazy things.

-The chairman sent this.

Thanks to that, shopping bags from all sorts of brands, as if he’d raided a department store, kept piling up.

He tried to return them, but,

-Saerim picked them out. She really wants you to wear them.

Yeonwoo, who is weak to children, was tricked by that excuse time and time again, like a snake slithering over a fence.

What’s funny is,

[Truth]

That that was also the truth.

‘So how can I not accept them?’

Anyway, for those reasons, Yeonwoo’s standards have risen quite a bit.

Since the people around him keep trying to dress him in that style, he can’t help but know.

But according to the child spirit, Gabriel was even more extreme than Yeonwoo.

[It’s like he’s wearing a house? Let’s see. He’s literally moved a Louis Vuitton here. Isn’t that all from this SS [Spring/Summer] season limited edition? Just one jacket would be over ten thousand, that’s crazy.]

The child spirit’s shock moved to his wrist and grew even bigger.

[Crazy. That watch costs hundreds of millions? That’s an Audemars Piguet limited edition?]

Hundreds of millions.

It was really like wearing a house.

‘That’s a really unrealistic amount.’

When he asked later when he learned about such things,

[Men are all about watches?!]

That absurd answer came back.

What would a ghost use a watch for?

Well, if a man with an aura like Kwon Seonghyun or Woo Dogyeom said that, maybe it would make sense.

But a tiny kitten waving its paws at a fishing rod said it, it wasn’t convincing at all.

Showing off knowledge he didn’t know why he had, the child spirit completed the confirmation kill.

But that wasn’t all.

‘How many cameras does he have……?’

Yeonwoo also knew the professional lines of the brands he’d learned about while helping with filming were dangling all over the place.

The lenses were all eye-poppingly expensive.

The cameras Gabriel brought alone, while not as much as the watch, would still easily exceed the cost of the clothes.

Naturally, his doubts deepened.

‘Has the definition of a less fortunate neighbor changed in my understanding……’

If not, then the people upstairs must be crazy.

“Of course, I’m not saying I’ll stay for free. I’ll pay for the accommodation and stay as much as you want.”

Gabriel, interpreting Yeonwoo’s gaze in his own way, made what he thought was an excuse.

‘I guess it’s an excuse?’

Perhaps because of his sensitive impression, even when he spoke normally, he sounded haughty, which was the problem.

But that was only for a moment.

“……Can’t I?”

When Yeonwoo didn’t say anything and just watched with his arms crossed, he immediately lowered his tail [became submissive].

“I’ll never do anything weird. I definitely won’t take pictures! Privacy is important. I know that much!”

He’s also watching carefully.

The problem is that it’s too obvious to this side.

“Um…… I’ll do everything for you.”

“……”

“Cleaning! I’m good at cleaning, you know?”

Gabriel said with hands that looked like they’d never held a vacuum cleaner.

“Or…… Meal preparation?”

I wonder if he’s ever held a knife.

“Styling……?”

It was clearly hair that someone had put their heart and soul into setting.

Staying still with the intention of seeing how far he would go, all sorts of words poured out.

[Yeonwoo, don’t bully him too much. He seems like a pitiful kid.]

Fortunately for Gabriel, the child spirit slipped in.

[He’s big, but he reminds me of you when you were young. Give him a break. He seems prickly, but I don’t think he has a bad personality.]

I don’t know when or how this child spirit got over to his side.

[Yeonwoo, you know how exhausted and sensitive people can get, right?]

He knows.

That’s why he didn’t immediately reject the sudden observation request.

“……Why are you looking at me like that? Are you going to let me stay?”

“Because I feel sorry for you.”

“Are you pitying me right now? Pitying me……! Pity me a lot.”

Gabriel’s reaction was quite interesting.

He trembled in anger, but it quickly subsided.

‘Tsk. If he were completely fierce, I’d pretend not to know.’

Funnily enough, he seemed a bit dim-witted from the start.

He came to catch a scammer, but he said he would save Yeonwoo, the only person in the house.

‘Doesn’t he usually start with suspicion?’

Looking at him, he’s not a bad kid. He’s not, but……

‘It seems like something’s been written on him. It’s funny that I’m saying this, though.’

The spiritual eye [ability to see ghosts].

In other words, it’s like having a third eye that can see ghosts.

Think about it.

What are the odds of meeting someone with a spiritual eye in a distant foreign land, not even in Korea?

It felt like someone had made things happen this way.

‘It’s understandable that the child spirit feels sorry for him. A person with a spiritual eye in a Western land……’

It’s a tragic fate.

Yeonwoo knew very well how a person with a spiritual eye lived.

He also knew how painful it became to live if you didn’t get proper treatment at the right time.

But unfortunately, this angel-like man had his spiritual eye opened not in Korea, but in a foreign country.

‘But overseas is more like…… Demons or zombies…… Isn’t that the concept?’

Exorcists exist, and demons and angels are supernatural beings in a way.

So maybe there’s a concept similar to the spiritual eye here too.

‘I don’t know about that. Maybe it’s because it’s not under my jurisdiction.’

Anyway, the important thing is that this man has been neglected all along.

Woo Saerim and Woo Saehyeon, who are similar cases, were lucky to have Woo Dogyeom.

Since Woo Dogyeom, who was born with the pulse of other ghosts, was by their side, impure things couldn’t approach them recklessly.

But this man is not.

‘It seems like he’s had a hard time properly.’

So that’s understandable.

The prim one also looks pitiful.

That’s all good. All good, but……

[Sudden Mission: Help a Less Fortunate Neighbor!]

[A sudden mission for the kind you who can’t pass by a less fortunate neighbor! If you do good deeds, you might get lucky?]

Why is the system responding to that!

Why?!

[You thought well. It’s all about accumulating merit, right?]

To put it simply, Yeonwoo accepted the sudden mission.

Actually, he wasn’t thinking of refusing.

The reason for the sudden mission was one thing, but what was more absurd was something else.

[Reward: ?]

“……?”

What’s with that insincere question mark?

‘Seriously, these old men……’

Basically, the system is friendly to him.

The penalty for the sudden mission to save Trevi is a bit crazy, but……

Yeah.

At least until then, it was extremely friendly, almost to the point of giving everything away.

‘I have to admit what I have to admit.’

Although it was a system created with Kang Yeosa’s lifespan as collateral.

Anyway, thanks to that, the system was very friendly.

It felt like it was trying to grab him by the collar and keep him alive.

‘But this time, I can’t grasp it at all?’

What exactly does it mean to help a less fortunate neighbor?

No, more than that.

Is Gabriel really a less fortunate neighbor?

Of course, if we talk about the spiritual eye here, the story will go on endlessly.

Yeonwoo also had a long story about that part.

[Sometimes, you tend to think too much.]

“How am I supposed to live if I don’t think?”

Yeonwoo looked at Gabriel, who seemed to have no thoughts at all.

He was in the dressing room, turning it upside down, saying he would style him.

He said he would prove his usefulness, or something like that……

“Isn’t he the guy who said he’d stay to observe me? Why is he like that?”

[I don’t know either. Sometimes you need to empty your brain and live like him, Yeonwoo?]

“Isn’t that emptying it too much?”

[Ah. That’s true. It would be a disaster if you emptied it that much.]

Before he knew it, Gabriel had become an official birdbrain even to the child spirit.

He’s sensitive, flustered, and prim, but ignorant of the world, so he’s just like a bird, or something……

[From the beginning, just thinking he was a scammer based on just a few things is……]

Perhaps because he’s lived with Yeonwoo for a long time, the child spirit becomes endlessly weak to people similar to Yeonwoo.

But it seemed like he couldn’t cover up to that point.

[Anyway, try to throw away some thoughts. Who knows? Maybe the answer will pop out later.]

“I don’t know. I don’t think that’ll happen in my opinion.”

If that were the case, wouldn’t he have given the answer already?

Instead of throwing missions in such a mysterious way.

[Well. You accepted it anyway. You don’t lose anything, right?]

“That’s true, but.”

From experience, it’s always beneficial to accept something the system gives.

At least he’s never lost anything by accepting it.

But there was another reason why he accepted this time.

‘What’s the intention?’

It was the system’s intention.

Thinking about it, it was similar when he saved Kwon Seonghyun.

It was different from Yeonwoo accepting requests to harvest lifespans.

At that time, he even got entangled with Kwon Seonghyun and gave him a penalty.

‘Trevi is the same.’

The second penalty after Kwon Seonghyun appeared was Trevi.

It was UTT that the system stepped in and gave the mission.

And the fourth is Gabriel.

‘Is there something?’

Thinking about it, it feels like a line is connected.

From Kwon Seonghyun to UTT, and then through Trevi to Gabriel.

‘Is there an inevitable reason why I have to give a sudden mission with such ridiculous reasons, or something……?’

“Yeonwoo. Come here for a second.”

Gabriel called Yeonwoo.

“I think it’d be good to wear this that day. When you do that…… that thing…… Ah, what was it? It’s not that I don’t know the name, but I can’t remember……”

“Live streaming?”

“Ah, right! Live! That!”

He clearly didn’t know.

“The outfit should also match Trevi’s.”

“Just tell him to wear whatever he wants. Why do I have to take care of his clothes too?”

“Aren’t you friends?”

“We are?”

Come to think of it, Kwon Seonghyun and Lee Jooha seemed to bicker like this too.

Is this what friends are like……

It seems like a wrong perception of friends is being formed, but it’s probably just my imagination?

In the meantime.

“Get out. Get out right now. I told you not to bother Yeonwoo!”
