**One Kick Girl — Chapter 169:
"The To-Do List From Hell (It's Just Chores)"**
Domestic terror • Psychological damage • Raon versus basic responsibility
1. The List Appears
It arrived without warning.
Pinned to the HQ notice board.
Written in calm, polite handwriting.
TODAY'S TASKS
Take out trash
Laundry (colors separated)
Restock fridge
Clean training room
Reply emails (urgent)
Raon stared at it.
"…This is a hit list."
Yuno squinted. "That's five chores."
Raon turned slowly.
"Exactly."
2. Psychological Assessment
Shion adjusted her glasses.
"These are not dangerous."
Raon jabbed at the board.
"'Reply emails' is ambiguous. That's how they get you."
Synthra scanned the paper.
"No hostile code detected."
Raon narrowed her eyes.
"Then why do I feel threatened?"
3. The Trash Mission
Raon stood before the trash bag.
It was full.
Not exploding. Not glowing. Just… heavy.
She lifted it.
It sagged ominously.
"…Why is it warm?"
Yuno shrugged. "That's soup."
Raon recoiled. "Why is there loose soup!?"
Shion calmly double-bagged it.
"Containment protocol."
Raon saluted. "You're the real hero."
4. Laundry: Color-Based Betrayal
The washing machine waited.
Empty. Silent. Judging.
Shion held up two shirts.
"One white. One red."
Raon nodded confidently.
"…They fight?"
"No."
"They merge?"
"No."
"Then why separate them?"
Shion paused. "…Because consequences."
Raon stared at the machine.
"…I've kicked gods. This scares me more."
5. Training Room Cleanup (Impossible)
The training room looked like a war zone.
Broken mats. Scorch marks. A dent shaped suspiciously like Raon.
Yuno picked up a dumbbell.
"Why is this bent?"
Raon avoided eye contact.
"Next task."
Shion sighed. "No. This one."
Raon groaned.
"I preferred when destruction was encouraged."
6. The Email Boss Fight
Finally.
The last task.
Emails.
Raon sat at the computer like it might explode.
Inbox: 47 unread
Raon whispered, "…Why are there so many enemies?"
Shion leaned over her shoulder.
"They're just messages."
Raon clicked one.
"Following up on my previous email."
Raon slammed the desk.
"THEY STACK."
7. The Almost-Kick Incident
Raon's leg lifted instinctively.
Shion grabbed it mid-air.
"Do not kick the computer."
"I can feel it judging me!"
"It's a machine."
"It knows."
Synthra muttered, "She's not wrong."
8. Victory, Somehow
One by one—
Trash removed. Laundry done (no pink disasters). Training room acceptable. Emails answered with minimal screaming.
Raon slumped in her chair.
"…Is this what adults feel like all the time?"
Yuno nodded. "Yes."
Raon whispered, "…I don't like it."
9. Quiet Realization
Shion handed Raon a drink.
"You didn't run. You didn't kick. You finished everything."
Raon blinked.
"…I did."
Shion smiled softly.
"Not every victory needs impact."
Raon considered that.
"…But some still do, right?"
Shion smirked. "Absolutely."
10. Ominous Normalcy
As they relaxed—
The printer in the corner whirred.
Raon snapped upright.
"…What's it doing?"
Synthra checked.
"…Printing something."
A page slid out.
TOMORROW'S TASKS
Phone calls
Raon screamed.
