fifty the thorn in the garden

One day, Su Qi suddenly discovers he has a peculiar ability: he can see Easter eggs hidden in the world around him. These aren’t just bits of extra information; by performing specific actions, he can unlock hidden rewards. While everyone else is fleeing in terror from a vengeful female ghost, Su Qi is already setting the table for a candlelit dinner, chatting amiably with her. [You acquire her husband's hat, a mysterious artifact that, when thrown, locks onto enemies and delivers a devastating mental shock.] When zombies overrun the streets, and survivors scramble for axes and kitchen knives, Su Qi confidently strides in, wielding a sound system in one hand and a heavy-duty machine gun in the other, casually clearing out the neighborhood. [No one can defeat me in my BGM.] This is the Abyss—the birthplace of despair and decay, where worlds crumble under fear and madness. This is also a paradise where countless seekers pursue the footsteps of gods. Myths of the past and epics of the future are written here in grand and tragic splendor. Until Su Qi shows up. With a mop soaked in the blood of a recently stunned god, Su Qi scrawls a few bold words onto the epic tale: "The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle."

But it’s a harsh, cruel world filled with misery and darkness; he can’t do it alone. Friends are made, friends are lost--that is the nature of the path he must walk.

A Love Story Entwined with Misunderstandings in a World of Chaos and Survival! What starts as an exciting trip to Paris quickly turns into a nightmare when Heesoo’s plane crash-lands, leaving her stranded in a zombie-infested parallel world. In this brutal realm, where outsiders like her are treated as slaves and violence reigns supreme, survival seems impossible—especially in a place where she can neither understand nor speak the language. Captured by ruthless men intent on enslaving her, Heesoo faces the horrifying prospect of being left to die at the hands of zombies. Just when all hope seems lost, a man with piercing emerald-green eyes miraculously saves her—a beacon of strength amidst the chaos. “Get lost, unless you’re looking for trouble.” Her savior, Calix Clovis, a holy knight and relentless zombie hunter, is the epitome of strength in this cruel world. With no other options, Heesoo clings to him as her only lifeline. Yet, as their journey unfolds, the language barrier between them breeds endless misunderstandings, while an unspoken tension of desire simmers beneath the surface, threatening to ignite. Heesoo finds herself falling for Calix, drawn to the man who saved her. Calix, too, feels a growing attraction to her, but as a holy knight, he views such desires as sinful temptations and fights to suppress his feelings. ‘What am I supposed to do with this woman?’ Helpless and unable to survive without him, Heesoo becomes his burden—one he knows he should abandon. Logic demands he leave her behind and continue his fight alone. Yet no matter how hard he tries, Calix cannot bring himself to let her go. “When we reach the city, we’ll never see each other again. Got it?” Calix tells himself she’s nothing more than a thorn—insignificant yet irritating. But the longer they travel together, the deeper she embeds herself in his soul, sharp and impossible to remove. Her presence unsettles him, forcing him to question everything he once believed, leaving him to wonder: would removing this thorn cause more pain than keeping it? Will Calix pull the thorn free and walk away? Or will he surrender to the feelings that pierce him deeper with every step they take together? #Romance #Sexual #Misunderstanding #Fantasy #Zombie #Obsessive Text copyright ⓒ 2024 by MaCherie All right reserved.
