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 384. A Wake-Up Call

Dheera had no idea why she began to cry.

Was it because she was scared? Or was it because she felt ashamed? Perhaps both.

She was ashamed of talking big about going to the Deathzone, even whining to be chosen. She was ashamed that even with all of her training, she couldn't do anything. She was ashamed, especially, because she made her Captain sigh.

But there was also another feeling that triggered her tear duck. It was sadness. Because then she realized that Zein had been battling with that kind of place for years before coming here. She remembered the scary, spiky aura that Zein had the first time they met; how vigilant those blue eyes were, how sharp his speaking tone was, and how nonchalant he was to the matter of death.

It was his daily life; walking with the pressure weighing his body, breathing the heavily toxic air, seeing creatures most grotesque.
