NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1
[Author: Sayoon’s Aunt]
[Title: Isn’t She Pretty?ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
As usual, I entered the forum and smiled contentedly.
Thanks to the girl who appeared in the post I had just clicked on.
A beautiful woman with gray long hair, swinging a great sword to deflect lightning.
An oval jawline and snow-white skin.
Her slightly upturned eyes were provocative, and the smile hanging on her small, pale pink lips seemed to reveal her confidence.
In her late teens, or maybe just turned twenty.
The particularly beautiful thing about this lovely woman, who possessed the innocence of a girl and the maturity of a woman, were her clear eyes, the color of a lilac violet.
The light captured in those eyes represented the pride to overcome all the world’s cold waves and adversities.
I nodded as I looked at that picture and saw the words written at the end.

Naturally, I immediately hit like. And when I refreshed with a smile…

As the number of dislikes increased, comments began to appear that hadn’t existed before.
[ㅇㅇ(113.712): Ugh. The Sayoon Corps are at it again.]
[ㅇㅇ(231.511): Is that the Sect Leader or a slut… look at how she’s dressed.]
What’s wrong with the outfit?
It’s the proud attire of Hongseong’s Sect Leader.
Of course, it was tight enough to reveal her curvy figure, and the right leg of her pants was completely gone, exposing her fair thigh.
But isn’t this quite acceptable?
There are girls out there just wearing almost see-through stockings!!
[Recommendations: 5][Dislikes: 13]
[ㅇㅇ(113.712): Ugh. The Sayoon Corps are at it again.]
[ㅇㅇ(231.511): Is that the Sect Leader or a slut… look at how she’s dressed.]
ㄴSohyeop Siu: Isn’t that the truth?
ㄴㅇㅇ(146.51): The academic consensus is that she rebuilt the sect after being sold by the annihilated sect.
ㄴvJiZonChaeRinV*: For real, if Sayoon sold her body, she could’ve bought the Empire. How does she bear that?;;
ㄴㅇㅇ(67.491): For real, lol
ㄴㅇㅇ(151.373): For real, lol
[Flamethrower*: But seriously, did this trash character really do nothing in the story? Fighting against the green forest mobs… only to back out.]
ㄴㅇㅇ(33.491): Whoa;;
ㄴMoonjeong’s Henchman(113.121): This is tonight’s topic.
“What the hell…”
In the story, just touching a man makes her blush, and yet she trains, puking out blood for revenge on her annihilated sect.
The avatar of humanity who, unlike others, awakened solely through her outstanding talent!
And you dare to insult Sayoon, the only one capable of soloing the current season boss, Iron Blood Clan’s Iron Blood Hwa?
Can’t forgive!
I said I can’t forgive!!
I immediately posted.

[Title: From now on, the Heavenly Bright Moon gallery will be dominated by our 50 million Sayoon Corps!]
[Sayoon Corps… Assemble!!]
[Likes 0][Dislikes 1]
ㄴFlamethrower*: But we don’t even have 300,000 subscribers, how can it be 50 million;;;
ㄴㅇㅇ(31.94): Every time you open your mouth, it’s a lie.
ㄴㅇㅇ(111.574): You should include multiple accounts.
ㄴㅇㅇ(31.94): Wow! I didn’t know that!
What kind of lie is that?
I know that deep in everyone’s hearts, they hold affection for Sayoon.
I reported all those slanderous comments without any evidence and began to browse the gallery.
It didn’t take long. The Sayoon Corps members who had been lurking quickly started clicking likes. At the same time, new posts began to flood the gallery.
[Heavenly Bright Moon Gallery]
[The protagonist of Heavenly Bright Moon is Sayoon, the chief of Hongseong, and this can be historically proven][0]
[The true hero who saved the Empire and defeated the Iron Blood Clan][0]
[I feel tingly in my loins.][0]
[Moonjeong the Slut vs. Hongseong’s Chief Sayoon][4]
.
.
.
Indeed, with 50 million Sayoon Corps members moving, taking over this pathetic gallery is no big deal!
As I proudly watched the gallery, a new post appeared, and I couldn’t help but click on it.
[Heavenly Bright Moon Part 5 Notice Lekka][17]
I had been waiting for this.
Even though Sayoon is an early character, she has been treated poorly compared to other characters.
Her Awakening is the slowest, and her story is the bleakest.
On top of that, her combat power is the lowest.
But as you know, veteran players get excited about trash characters…
“She’s not a trash character!!
Right. Our lovely one can’t be a trash character.
I promised myself while looking at the poster stuck on the wall.
Sayoon is not a trash character.
She’s just a late bloomer.
The Sayoon boom… is coming!
I took a deep breath, reiterating that in my mind.
After the release of Heavenly Bright Moon, I’ve played all the protagonists, but there is really only one true protagonist.
That’s me.
And the 50 million Sayoon Corps are united in one heart, one mind, praying that in this update, which will feature the final battle against the Iron Blood Clan that destroyed her sect, she’ll receive a massive buff.
If they have any conscience, they’ll give that lovely girl high coefficient skills!
Please! Please!
I read through the contents, and when I reached the last line, I froze.
“What the heck…… Uggghhhh…”
To a character who needs dozens of buffs… they give a nerf?!
And the only thing they give is just one self-buff…?!
These bastards…!
I lost consciousness from the atrocities of these heartless people.
When I regained my senses and looked around the gallery, it was utter chaos.
[Heavenly Bright Moon Gallery]
[Sayoon Corps brutally annihilated!][37]
[Hongseong Slut Club opened!][0]
[Check out Chaeran Unni’s majesty in this update][4]
[Is there a festival going on right now?][3]
[Who is the protagonist of Heavenly Bright Moon?][81]
[Sayoon’s damage is truly touching!!][7]
[No, but isn’t this too much?][118]
“But seriously, isn’t this too much?”
With each post I clicked, my insides felt like they were twisting and I thought I might cough up blood.
I mean, really, isn’t this a bit over the top?
Performance? Initial characters have low coefficients? Then what about Siu and Chaeran?
They’re the same initial characters, so why are they still treated like nobility?
Overwhelmed by an unbearable rage, my face turned red as I clicked on a post.

[Title: Who’s the Protagonist of Heavenly Bright Moon?]
“Isn’t it obviously Yura from Hwasan Sect, the prettiest of them all?”

N Sayoon’s Mom*: (Sayoon protagonist concept)
N Sohyeop Siu*: (Sayoon head-smacking concept)
N O_O(117.51): Don’t listen to this kind of stuff, Sayoon. You haven’t done anything wrong.
N O_O(31.119): For real, her low performance isn’t her fault…
N O_O(117.51): Being pretty is part of her performance, you know? Don’t disregard it!
It was a complete mess.
Seeing the posts from the trolls excitedly piling up, I buried my face in my hands.
Why is this happening?
Why is Sayoon the only one suffering like this?
If it were just about the performance, I could let it slide.
But the complaints about how Sayoon was treated go beyond just performance.

[Title: Seriously, this is too much, right?]
“Humanly speaking, what did the kid do wrong to deserve this? They already messed up the story last time, and it burned down.
No matter how much Sayoon’s concept is about overcoming unhappiness, shouldn’t things ease up a bit now?
In the prologue, the sect was annihilated. In Chapter 1, the village where the sect was located burned down, and in Chapter 2, the family of a friend who helped them was slaughtered. In Chapter 3, there was even a forced defeat event. Even in Chapter 4, after finally getting the Hongseong Divine Art, they got stabbed in the stomach and fell off a cliff. Isn’t this just too much? Seriously.”

N Yura’s Backing*: “It does seem a bit excessive. It feels like they’re purposely trying to create a misery porn scenario.”
N O_O(31.117): Be grateful there weren’t any assault events, folks.
N O_O(118.41): They even claimed it didn’t happen officially at that forced defeat event due to some ridiculous narrative twist.
N O_O(341.141): For real, there were some crazy people back then. Just a bunch of perverts. All the attackers were women, what’s going on?
N Heavenly Bright Moon: Don’t you know “Girls Can Do Anything”?
N Moonjeong’s Thief*: “Tonight, I’m skipping out on Chaelin & Sayoon buff scenes.”
N Mudaengmyeonjang*: “I’m interested in your refined tastes, sir.”
N O_O(94.219): Great Hero. Show us the ways of the martial world. Let’s enjoy the good things together.
N This is Martial Arts*: “For real, the past events of the other characters and the main story play out like a chaotic martial arts sitcom, so why is she stuck in a human drama?”
I wasn’t the only Sayoon Corps member filled with anger; many others were posting grumpy comments. Most people agreed with the genuine and furious posts.
See? Everyone pretends not to, but they actually like Sayoon.
sigh
I logged out of the gallery and accessed Heavenly Bright Moon. Among the many characters in the character selection screen, seeing my favorite character, Sayoon, at the very top made my heart ache.
What kind of grudge could this pretty girl possibly have…?
There’s definitely a connection…
Ah, this won’t do.
I can’t hold it in any longer.
I logged back into the gallery.

[Title: 50 million Sayoon Corps members! Are you just going to sit there?!]
[Whether you want to poop on the floor, send a truck, or send a whopping 5,700-character complaint email like 57,000 characters, shouldn’t we do something?! Let’s show the power of our 50 million Sayoon Corps members!! If they can’t do it, they’ll probably possess someone to do it!!]
It hadn’t been long after posting when the likes and comments started to rack up. I refreshed repeatedly to read the comments.

ㄴSayoon Uncle*: LMAO
ㄴㅇㅇ(118.41): I agree
ㄴㅇㅇ(37.54): Ahjossi;; You might really get possessed like that;;;
ㄴJjijidaegumsul*: If possessed, I’d totally love Sayoon.
ㄴㅇㅇ(317.541): Right. Does this kid even know what happiness is? Being an orphan, they can’t even have the same support as other disciples, can’t even snack properly.
ㄴㅇㅇ(37.54): If possessed, buy them some dang candy. Damn.
ㄴFlamethrower*: I almost cried when I went back after promising to eat candy with my friend I met in chapter 2, only to see their family massacred by the Iron Blood Clan.
ㄴㅇㅇ(117.51): Does this kid know what happiness is?
ㄴㅇㅇ(37.512): Damn, the performance is one thing, but Sayoon’s story needs a reboot too. Why do they give good ones to the others but leave her out…
ㄴMoonjeong* : Heeheung! Going to pet Agasayoon!
ㄴSword’s Edge Moon* : Police, I’m here! Right here!
In an instant, the topic changed to what one would do if they were possessed by Heavenly Bright Moon. A few of them claimed they would take all of the protagonist’s luck and flip the game board, but…
Aside from that small number, the majority said they would take care of Sayoon or at least participate in protests.
Even though they were joking around, it seemed there was a lot of dissatisfaction with Sayoon’s story.
Anyway, among the changed topics, there were actually some Sayoon Corps members seriously posting about doing truck protests or sending complaint letters.
Thus, many participated in discussions, and the general content of the statement was decided.
What we wanted was a story reboot.
And a buff for Sayoon.
We’re not asking to overwhelmingly make her strong.
We’re not demanding for her to be happy unconditionally.
Just asking that she at least be on par with other characters.
That was how the story wrapped up.
Now, if I organized this into a statement, they’d surely fix it, right?!

A strange ceiling.
When I woke up, I saw a pretty extravagant room.
Outside the window next to the bed were mountains and a street that looked somehow familiar.
After slowly examining them, I smiled.
There was no need to cry.
“These bastards. They really didn’t want to fix anything, did they?”
I never imagined I’d be thrown into this world just to fix things myself.
