CHAPTERS
Although the fire hadn’t spread to the first and second floors, the staircase was already filled with choking smoke and stifling heat. Just stepping inside made your skin sting with a burning pain. Yin Liuming soaked his jacket in the restroom on the first floor, covered his mouth and nose with it, and headed upstairs without hesitation. The higher he climbed, the clearer the faint cries for help became. When he reached the second floor, Yin Liuming scanned the corridor and narrowed his eyes…- 110.1 K • Ongoing
- The next day, Chi Xi heard from Ning Yuanyuan about what had happened the night before, so he went out of his way to visit the third floor and see for himself. After a night had passed, the six ruffian students were still hanging on the two iron poles. They had been soaked by the rain all night and then dried by the wind. Their dyed yellow hair hung down, completely losing the arrogance they once had. Feeling relieved but also a bit worried, Chi Xi asked, “Brother Yin, should we take them down?…

- That evening, as it neared seven o'clock, five players gathered at the entrance of third senior year, Class 3. In the afternoon, they employed their old tricks again, transforming the zombies back into students as they waited for the system to randomly assign today’s lessons. Apart from that, everyone also found the flowers that had automatically jumped into their hands. Ding Pei’an had become much more subdued, no longer foolishly provoking Yin Liuming. Ignoring Yang Jiao, he stood alone in…

- Yin Liuming made up a reason to send Chi Xi away and looked for an empty classroom so he could call Ye Qingqing. After letting Ye Qingqing out last time, he didn’t take her back to the illustration book, allowing her to hang out with the students like before. He had noticed something odd about Ye Qingqing's perception—she seemed completely unaware that she was a monster in the Nightmare Game and still thought of herself as a regular student. However, when Yin Liuming recalled and released her…

- In the forty-first year of the Yonghe era, a heavy snow fell on Mount Fu, bringing biting winds even to the perpetually warm Southern Forest. Pedestrians on the streets huddled in their thickest clothing, standing silently on either side of the road as they watched a luxurious palanquin emerge from the city gates. “Ah, the Sixth Prince truly has a wretched fate. So young, yet already being sent to that place of death.” “Indeed. Who doesn’t know the unpredictable temper of the ruler in the…
"You can't even do this properly? I’ve no face left to show the Lord of Heukcheon." A kick crashed into him. Another followed, then another. The Third Overseer didn’t hold back. Blows landed without pause. Curled into himself, Woo bore it in silence. Pain was nothing new. Crying out only made it worse. He no longer remembered what offense he was being punished for. Sometimes the beatings came with reason. Sometimes they didn’t. He had long stopped trying to make sense of it. If he let his…- 125.4 K • Ongoing
- The room was not even ten square meters big. There was only one wooden chair, along with a writing desk and another chair near the windows. There was also a flowerpot in the corner. On the white wall were the big words, 'Anyang High School Security Office' written in what looked like crooked handwriting. Everyone looked at the handsome young man when he walked into the security office. The man with the scar on his face occupied the old chair. He saw the young man and asked coldly,…

- Yeom Seunghan kept the man’s face pinned in place and jerked his chin at the one he’d just ordered to bring the blade. What he pointed to was a small knife used by physicians in the medical hall to trim herbs. Though it was always kept sharp for medicinal use, it was never meant to cut through human flesh, let alone a tongue. And yet, the Second Disciple had deliberately asked for it, likely to make a painful example out of the man. The man who’d been singled out flinched and trembled as he…

- In the late afternoon at Baekragung, a confidential meeting was held, attended only by high-ranking officials. There were two matters to resolve. The first concerned Dan Woo Hyo, the Lord of Baekragung, who had been missing for ten years. The second involved Paeng Soso, who had vanished without a trace after leaving with him. Unlike previous meetings, someone new had taken a seat at the head of the table. That person was none other than Seol Buyeong. “This time, we’ll send the search party to…

- The next day, Kang Oh headed alone to Honamgak. Normally, Woo would have been with him, but not today. He had thought that simply keeping Woo by his side and helping him grow used to it would be enough. But in the end, it felt like he’d only dragged along someone unwilling. His chest felt heavy. When he asked Woo to be kind to him just a little more, Woo only lowered his head and said nothing. He hadn’t expected much, yet the ache that lingered felt like a sign of his own pettiness. He had stayed…
