There’s No Love In the Deathzone (BL)

Zein was a rogue Guide living in the god-forsaken land of the red-zone, guiding for money and survival. Until the guild he used to work with caused a tragedy. Driven by sorrow and guilt, Zein became a mercenary guide in the land bordering the forbidden Deathzone, working like a suicidal monk. One day, an overbearing Esper suddenly appeared and told him, “If you’re so hellbent to die, why don’t you come with me to the Deathzone?” A strange proposition, a nostalgic smirk. Had Zein actually met him before? Following the man into the deadly zone, will Zein find the respite he seeks, or will he get engulfed in a storm? But there’s no such thing as love in the deathzone...is it? * * * The story is set in a sentinel-verse, so there will be: - Sentinel (Esper) and Guide - Dungeon! - Romance - Action - …smut? ;) It’s a (kinda) love story wrapped in dungeon system shenanigans, with abilities and action and whatnot

Chapter 238. Double Assessment

 

More than a hundred of people gathered in Trinity compound that day, almost as many as the espers already part of Trinity itself. And that was only the ones who already passed the initial assessment; the first level.

But even only reaching that far was already considered achievement for some. After all, unlike guides, espers who joined a guild's open recruitment session were mostly fresh graduates. High-quality espers were usually being scouted instead of going through many layers of assessment levels.

Arlo was one of those rookies. He didn't go to one of the esper's academies, but he had lessons from all of the espers in his clan, which was more than enough to grant him the first-floor trial success. 

If it came to talent, Arlo had more than a decent potential. After all, he came from an old lineage of a loyal vassal to the House Ishtera. Unfortunately, the talented boy soon grew dissatisfied with the objective of his training.
