---Romance Version---
[The Scrap Queen (?) who'll do anything to survive ✖️ the foul-mouthed, talkative, show-off of a flamboyant professor]
One day, Sang Mu, who only wants to sell scrap for supplies in peace, is stopped by someone as she leaves the intelligence station.
“Are you the legendary Scrap Queen?”
Sang Mu: ...? Who came up with that stupid name?!
“Hand over what you have.”
Sang Mu: !!!
She only picks up garbage to put food on the table. Why is someone trying to steal even her garbage?!
Sang Mu hugs the scrap metal in her arms and backs away, again and again. “No.”
“Then you'll have to die.”
Sang Mu: ?
Hold on! Is this piece of scrap really worth that much?!
Can she still change her mind???!!!
[Warnings]
There are no perfectly good people. If you need flawless characters, read with caution.
The pacing is slow, and the story loves planting foreshadowing that may never pay off (I might forget).
There's no outline. I write wherever the dream takes me.
