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 142. Poison In Your Vein

They were quiet during the journey back to the dorm. For the first time, it was Bassena who kept his silence in distress, while Zein waited patiently.

The news about Zein's father, more than for the guide, was more shocking for Bassena. Knowing that it was his uncle that killed Zein's father seemed to give the esper a hard blow. Zein understood then, why Radia seemed so hesitant about this piece of information--why he asked Zein if he was sure about letting Bassena in the room.

Ironically, thanks to Bassena's reaction, Zein wasn't really shocked by the fact, since his mind was getting preoccupied with calming the esper. 

Bassena looked...furious. Even while the esper tried to curb it as much as he could, Zein could see it inside the blazing ambers. During the few months he got to know the esper, he had never seen Bassena this angry. Perhaps because usually, the man would already go through his anger management routine before showing his face.
