the grinch grin

Kassandra opens her eyes in a bizarre room full of Christmas decorations. “Where the hell am I? Where is this place?” She started moving her eyes around the room. No one is inside the room except for her. She noticed that the room was painted white and full of Christmas decorations. She gets annoyed at the sight of red and green color decorations around her. “Is this hell?” she asked herself. “Hmm. If this is hell, I could turn this into my own haven.” Kassandra removes all the decorations and started throwing it into the fireplace found inside the bedroom. While she is busy doing her stuff, a woman entered the room. “You are awake. How are you feeling?” Kassandra turned her gaze to the source of the voice. The woman is familiar. “Are you Satan? Is this hell?” She innocently asked the woman. “Satan? Who is that?” the woman confusedly asked back. “If you are not Satan. Then I am not in hell. So, is this heaven?” The woman cannot help herself not to laugh. “What a cute human being. Anyway, you are not in heaven or hell. You are in Noel City, specifically Noel Academy.” “Noel City?” Kassandra stops and thinks for a while. She remembers something. She was hunting the meat for her lunch and supper when she encountered some unexplainable occurrences in front of an enigmatic wall that said to be the link of the human world from the place called Noel City. From what she had heard from the town people, Noel City is a place where people can celebrate Christmas every day. Also, this place is no ordinary. All the residents in this city possessed special abilities that are unknown to common people. “Are you kidding me!? Here is even worse than hell!” Kassandra’s skin turns pale white. “Please bring me back home.” The last words she could mutter before losing her consciousness. How can a grinch like her survive in a place like this?

Flora Bloom, who was betrayed and killed by her boyfriend in her past life, is reborn with a peerless spatial dimension back to the time before the crisis, hoarding food, raising a child, and tearing apart scumbag men and manipulative women. Originally, she just wanted to raise a child and low-key fight zombies and level up together with her family. But she discovered that she was unexpectedly falling step by step into a tender trap meticulously designed by a certain sly and scheming man. Flora Bloom looked at the vast space within her sea of consciousness; it had a farmhouse courtyard, fields, and a Spirit River, but it just lacked a bit of vitality. So, a fat, sky-flying mantis? Collect! A rare little white tiger that can discharge electricity? Collect! A behemoth spirit crocodile with its young? Collect! As long as it's alive and edible, collect, collect, collect them all! Endless scumbags and vile women, a shameless and deeply scheming leader, all wanting to use her to attack zombies and obtain more Crystal Cores for their own gain? Your shameless, worthless life? Hand it over.

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
