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 526. Memories of Red

The last time Zein went to a funeral, it was for his already deceased parents, who he knew were already dead since he was born. If anything, it was a memorial service rather than a funeral. Thus, the sadness he felt was momentary, and the relief of finally putting his parents in the same resting place took a bigger place than the sadness.

There were a lot of dead comrades during his Borderland Unit enlistment, but most of them had no body to be buried, since no one had enough extra life to retreat from the Deathzone while carrying a dead weight. With how easily it happened anyway, they became numb to death and after twenty minutes of memorial service in the courtyard, they had to go back to their own duty.
