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 134. White Lotus

It was rare for anyone to hear Zein laughing, but now that they did, they had no idea how to respond. It sounded beautiful, but the tone was rather cold, like a laugh used to mock something. 

"You?" Zein snickered. "And who said that?"

"People," Nora replied with a shrug, sounding so nonchalant for someone who got accused. 

"They don't know you, do they?" Zein chuckled while standing up from his seat. "They don't know how well you know me."

This time, Nora let out a laugh too. "Yeah, they certainly don't."

Because Nora, as someone who already framed Zein in the past, knew how ineffective such tactics were for Zein. Things like slandering his reputation were something that Nora knew would never hurt the man. Furthermore, using a relationship allegation, when he perfectly knew that Zein and Bassena had something going on between them?
