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 191. Duty and Calling

Zein usually woke up with his biological alarm, unless he was physically drained or mentally distraught. Or both. 

Today was none, and he woke up just after dawn just as usual. Only, instead of a ceiling, he woke up staring at a pair of warm amber eyes. "This feels familiar," he commented, lips curling upward reflexively. 

"Like the time you woke up and kissed me out of nowhere?" the esper asked. 

"Ah," Zein chuckled softly, recalling the day he visited the lab for the first time and touched the shard. He dreamt of something--he couldn't remember what--but he recalled calling out for Bassena and when he opened his eyes, the esper was there. Zein didn't think twice to kiss Bassena then, thinking it was still a dream.
