solo leveling jin-woo x reader

chapter 28

Y/n pov

"Hey honey, can you go to the store. I'm gonna need the stuff to make spaghetti tomorrow." Eye's widen upon hearing my mom's voice. Peering around my old room, everything was how I remembered. This doesn't feel right. One moment I'm fighting for my life and now I'm in bed. 

Was Jin an illusion? 

"Y/n? Are you ok?" Lost in thought I didn't notice my mom open my door. "Did you not hear me? I asked if you can run to the store?" 

"Huh, oh yeah, sure I don't mind." I feel so awkward right now. It all could be a dream but no dream feels that long. Did time restart like in the story? 

"Heres the money. Remember only stuff for spaghetti. When you leave be careful." She walked up to me on the bed sliding 50 dollars into my hand before turning on her heels and out my door. 

Staring at the 50 dollars now in my head my thoughts ran wild. I'm back in my old life. No gates, No hunters or monsters, No Sung Jin-woo. Downstairs by the door where I put my shoes on. Maybe It was a dream. 

Hugging my mom bye and began walking down the street. Same place as I remember my phone notification rang. Hairs on the back of my neck and arms stood. Eyes widen as I pull out my phone. Light flashed on and to my amazement, the solo leveling notification was there. Slowly walking again as I looked at the new chapter that came out.

This time, casually looking up to watch out for the car that caused my untimely demise. Catching a glimpse of the road memories of my vision fading and the screaming. Did I turn into the main character of a story thanks to that trauma? Stopping before the road unlike before like clockwork a car went zooming past. 

The rest of the walk thoughts like if I continued walking would I go back or if this is reality flooded through. I must be going insane. 

Finally finishing the task my mom had asked when I dropped the groceries on the table to have her put it in the fridge to cook tomorrow. 

Life went on from this. I go to work or hang out with my parents but thoughts of Jin were so vivid in the back of my mind. Everyone around me did notice the sudden change in attitude. I guess dying twice does that to a person. I began wearing a mask of some sort trying to go back to my normal routine. Well, my past routine before my first death. 

Two months past and everything was fine. Sitting down in the dining room eating leftover food scrolling through my phone till I decided to reread solo leveling. I stop reading it since it kept reminding me of the vivid dream. The story finally ended so I thought why not. 

Clicking on the first chapter instead of seeing the actual chapter a Notification covered the screen with a black background. 

[Do you want to restart the world.
Accept/Decline]

Someone messed the chapter up or something. Turning my phone off faced down to the table Putting the silverware to my mouth as I continue eating before the same notification popped up before my very eyes. The system from my dream. Was this a dream? 

[Do you want to restart the world.
Accept/Decline]

The system Jin and I shared was in front of me.

Was this all an Illusion? 

As the thought appeared in my mind the world around me shattered like glass. As the world fractured leaving me in a black void. A normal person would be terrified but the black void feels so familiar. It brings me comfort that no stuffed animal could provide. 

"You finally realized." Finally seeing him for myself. The dark knight himself stands before me.

"Ashborne. What is this?" Ashborn was fought of guard by my question. From the fact, I knew him or I'm not that phased by the world crumbling around me I don't know.

Ashborne stood so much taller than me. Wide shoulders and tall figure he stood like a mountain before me. 

"If you want, you can live in this world for eternity, or go back to reality." 

"Reality as In the other world."

"If that's what you call it. You seem already aware."

"I don't want to live in the illusion. I feel like I'm going insane in here."

"Is this your choice?"

"Yes, Although I want to talk with you longer.

Ashborne only stayed silent and unmoving.

"You always wanted to talk with Jin and I so might as well make it count."

A deep chuckle left the knight as we walked into the void. Slowly around us, the darkness started to feel up. From flower fields to South Korean street which I was familiar with. 

Our conversations weren't long but I did notice he found amusement in me. He may be an ancient deity but he's pretty chill to converse with. 

All great things came to an end. I must return to where I truly belong. With Jin. I died in my world already but I haven't died in Jins.
