Chapter Text
Ivan was a normal employee for a gaming company, he had no idea how he got in or how he had survived so long. He'd only ever known that he could transmigrate. And as a result, he can spend more time with Till (even if it is unrequited...), as well as be grateful for the opportunity to live a relatively normal existence. Being ability to be free rather than stuck in oblivion.
He honestly decided to keep his life simple, even if his original intention was to start over if he failed to love him once. But the truth is that he enjoys the modest life he's created, even if Till doesn't like him back, that is great.
And so on. He graduated from college and began working for a company called "comkim" for some reason, which was a gaming company. A little one. He wasn't sure how or why he was approved, but he was pleased to have a job.
However, he can become tired of it at times. Monday was once again the worst day of the week, according to Ivan.
He growled and slammed down the alarm clock, which was continuously beeping, before sitting up and blinking fast. Ivan was still very much asleep, as evidenced by his inability to hear the quick ding of a certain blue box light beside him.
Ding! Ding!..

Ivan opened his eyes again, but did not look at the floating semi-transparent blue box. He sat up, made his bed, and picked up the mug on his table, his flat was small, but adequate for one person.
When he picked up the mug, he spotted a floating, semi-transparent blue box. He dropped the mug.
A crash was heard, and fragments of glass hit the ground.
"Holy shit." Ivan's eyes widened and his mouth dropped open.
He honestly doesn't know where to begin, first and foremost, a system-like has appeared right in front of him. The semi-transparent floating blue box holds letters and words (more like a deal) for Ivan.
His first idea was that he was hallucinating, but after he physically slapped himself, he stopped thinking about it. Ivan spotted the penalty, which was inscribed in the floating semi-transparent blue box.
'What penalty?' Ivan was more concerned with the fact that whoever or whatever created this.....thing had the guts to punish him for refusing.
He also took notice of the term "host".
'What host?'
Is he the host? Ivan has no idea, but he does know one thing: he can't seem to get rid of this err...floating box. There is just no way to get rid of it. Ivan attempted many methods to get rid of the blue box, but none of them worked.
"But what host is it talking about?" Ivan wondered, but then a flick was heard, and the floating semi-transparent blue box vanished.
"Oh!" Ivan sighed, relieved that something was obscuring his force field of view was gone, But his elation did not last long, as another flick was heard.
Flick!..
⌦ » Four main hosts will be sent into this... Magical world! In order to survive, the four of you will need to help each other out.

❐ Host #89 will be given penalty through picking decline.
「 Choose Carefully! 」
a regressor, or if it's an exchange for him becoming one. All he discovered was that one day he could regress, and it was not his fault.
He stared again at the semi-transparent floating blue box, or whatever you call it, and reconsidered his decision.
What happens if he accepts this?
Ding! Ding!..
» Host #89 will be moved into this new universe! Or.. you know, transmigrated. Ah, unless if you picked to die that is. But.. dying has rewards! :)
« ☑ / ☒ »
❐ Host #89 will be given penalty through picking decline.
「 Choose Carefully! 」
Oh? Dying has rewards?
But anyways..
"..." Ivan clicked his tongue in irritation, of course! He would not know the solution to whatever this is. It feels like it's playing with him, but he doesn't have a choice, does he?
« No. »
"Are you being controlled by someone?"
« No. (•⩊•) »
Someone is definitely in control of it.
Ivan placed the new mug on the table and washed his hands, his thoughts racing, unsure what to do or if his decision was correct at all. With a final sigh, he dried his hands before asking.
"What universe is it anyway?"
« "A Love's Price." »
Ivan came to a halt and stared at the system, expressionless.
"You're kidding me."
« No. (ᵔ⩊ᵔ) »
From what he remember, "A Love's Price" was a popular kdrama series that blew people's minds, from the Victorian style to the drama and narrative. Ivan watched it because it was trending, but it wasn't his. err.. The standard style for movies.
Mizi recommended it to him, and Ivan, being himself, accepted it. He said he would attempt to watch, and here he goes.
He simply remembered that the k-drama had the typical kind of gore and angst, with the male leads being separated from the female leads, blah blah blah... And the fact that the villains died awful deaths, so he hopes that he does not receive-
Ding!..
⌦ » It has been decided that Host #89 will reincarnate/transmigrated as the second son of the Yoo Duchy!
「 Congratulations! 」
« ☑ / ☒ »
❐ Overwriting Identities... [27/100]
"Huh." Ivan simply sipped his coffee and let the system in question do its work.
Wait.
That was one of the villains.
Oh, shit.
