“Nggh.” Heendungi whimpered and licked Kijoon’s neck. As expected, the messy black markings woven across his skin didn’t fade—they remained as they were. ‘Is it because of the dream demon’s nightmare?’ Dojin’s expression grew even more rigid. Meanwhile, the black markings began to writhe slightly, expanding their reach. If those markings ended up spreading over his entire body, something serious was going to happen. Murmuring a quiet apology in his head, Dojin raised his…- 289.6 K • Completed
If it had been Hancanera, he would’ve kept that look of mine—all dazed and lost in it—just for himself. He would’ve been the only one to see me like that. “Did the high priest or anyone else probe him and confirm anything?” No, not even that. No one ever reas Hancanera’s mind. Suddenly, Banwes felt more mature than me. To be fair, I really was ten years younger than him… “What happened to him now?” I asked as if seeking confirmation. “He’s dead.” The man…- 183.7 K • Completed
- Just as we were about to start walking (well, Banwes was, not me), before he could even take a single step, Paronai—the one at the head of the group and its leader—spoke up. “But, you know… one of us has been missing for a while now.” It was the sort of topic everyone knew about but deliberately avoided. Penzey let out a dry laugh and rolled his eyes. He even took a couple of steps back in advance. Only Paronai, not understanding the situation, looked confused. “Be careful,” Yurichen…

- “High Priest, you should eat too.” “I have no appetite.” Indeed, Yurichen really didn’t seem hungry. Even during the physically demanding journey, he had shown little interest in food, so it wasn’t all that suspicious. But then again, it was suspicious. While I devoured my meal, he never left my side and watched me the whole time. On top of that, he followed me even after the meal—and unbelievably, he even helped me find things to do at the temple so I wouldn’t be…

- Finally freed from the clutches of the cult and truly safe, Riarun still didn’t know he was safe—he spent days in sobs and restless thrashing. But when he held him in his arms, he fell asleep peacefully. His red, swollen eyes shimmered with dewdrop-like tears. He looked so dazed he might go limp if lifted just like this. Banwes, watching Riarun sleep deeply with ragged breaths, was lost in thought. Was it coincidence? Had it simply been time for him to calm down? Or maybe all he…

- Meanwhile, Jiho stood still in a snowy field blanketed with white. A blizzard whirled around him. “The safe zone’s been breached!” “Fall back! Back up, now!” Jiho only blinked vacantly, showing no other reaction. In front of him, grotesque monsters were swarming and tearing espers apart alive. Then came a dull thud nearby, and a head dropped at Jiho’s feet. As it rolled to a stop, its eyes met Jiho’s. It was a shocking sight—but Jiho didn’t so much as…

- “You have to live happily until then. Stay healthy for a long, long time.” That guy kept dragging himself through life, as if trying to honor Jiho’s final words. But he didn’t look happy. He couldn’t fall asleep without alcohol every night, and even then, he only managed three or four hours at most. On top of that, he was tormented by severe nightmares, so even those few hours of sleep never looked restful. Ever since losing Jiho, that guy had been living in hell. “Tsk… Just…

- Chapter 7: The 8,000-Yuan Slippers To Qiao Le, even friends should return kindness with kindness—let alone someone he wasn’t even close to. He could accept the offer to share the pizza, but not enjoy it guilt-free. Shen Hechuan seemed to pick up on that and didn’t argue. He walked to the coffee table, brought out his phone, and pulled up a payment code. “Just half is fine. I had some too.” Qiao Le quickly transferred the money. “Done.” The food was delivered, the meal was eaten,…

Hakyung’s eyes narrowed at the boss’s suspicious expression and behavior. He’d said there was no trip to the sea or anything like that planned, but…? “Where are we going?” “You’ll find out if you follow me.” It wasn’t much of an answer. Hakyung’s lips parted as if to protest again, but he shook his head instead. It would be a problem if they did go to the sea, and a problem if they ended up in some shady alley, too. He clearly expressed his firm refusal, but Muheon…- 210.6 K • Completed
- “Do this one too.” “Wow, you’re seriously fast! Then this one too!” Like sharks circling their prey, the staff swarmed around Hakyung, each clutching a document to their chest. Every single form they handed over bore clear traces of being filled out by hand. There seemed to be more than ten employees here, yet apparently none of them could use the program… The more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed. But Hakyung was already used to solving problems for the elderly back in his…
