“I shall see the end of this day!” In a world on the edge of collapse, who could defy despair? In the ruins of dreams and shadows of death, who was writing fate’s cruel script? I stepped into the world of my favorite novel, where reality and fiction blurred into a twisted nightmare. Collapsed cities, monstrous nightmares, and a sky shrouded in blood. Deception, betrayal, secrets, and survival… The pages turned endlessly, yet the answers to the world’s mysteries remained out of reach. This is the story of an average individual, whose life has been filled with nothing but misfortune and mysteries. † Discord: https://discord.com/invite/4YQDYXWGME
A massive headache throbbed in my skull, as if someone had repeatedly struck my head with a baseball bat. No, it felt more like several needles were piercing through my brain.
This agonizing pain... Maybe it was a side effect of my soul temporarily leaving my body.
Despite the pain, I forced my eyes open. The first things I saw were the familiar faces of Jung Yunhee and Angelica.
"Jakga, you're awake!"
"Ugh... My head hurts."
I slowly propped myself up, rubbing my temples to ease the ache. Once the pain subsided slightly, I looked around and realized I was lying on a clearing.
The forest surrounding us was burning, and the battle was still raging. But more importantly...
"What happened? How..."
"Lee Suhye dragged you out of the forest." Jung Yunhee answered with a flat voice. She seemed rather exhausted.
She did?" I struggled to recall the events. "Where is she?"
"She's over there but her condition is not good."
