(Asher’s POV)
8.30 in the evening, the time where my nightmare came. It seems like it doesn’t matter if I’m near her or not, I would always come back into the red space which I now called ‘The Flesh’—because of it’s surrounding which looked like an inside of a body. I’ll just assume I’m inside that violet-eyed girl’s mind.
A loud noise like something forming increased my guard. I darted my eyes towards the source warily while lifting the kitchen knife that I brought with me. One thing which I notice was that I can bring items into The Flesh. Just like that one time where I threw my phone to the flesh monsters, anything that I touched will also be brought into The Flesh.
The creature swayed for a bit.
Because of my view which became clearer, I am able to predict it’s movements and it’s target. The flesh monster’s body moves slowly but it’s tentacles moves fast and would always go for vital points of the body like the heart and the brain. Snapping the n

(Asher’s POV) Blood sprayed to the fleshy walls as I landed the last blow to the monster. Slowly, it fell flat on the ground, without anymore signs of movement. I raised my hand in a victorious pose, before I too fell on my butt from the fatigue. I took a long time to kill that monster because of how unskilled I am. Imagine having to face off against a monster with a skill as if it’s an elite assassin? This victory which I gained was definitely a stroke of luck on my side. I quickly gathered myself up and picked up the ice hockey bat which was smeared with blood. My clothes too was stained with blood, and it was ripped apart too so I took it off and threw it away before deciding to proceed exploring the flesh. Strange, it should end when I killed that monster. Is there anything more that I miss? Or perhaps.. Did I kill only the lower level monster and now I had to face off against the boss? “Gimme a break…” I ruffled my h

(Elaine’s POV) “After you turn 18, you will marry Mister Rupert…” “Don’t oppose, because this is for your own good…” “No one loves you…” I sucked a gasp after I opened my eyes. For a few moments, the blurry surrounding finally took it’s sharp form and I realized I was in a completely different room. I fluttered my eyes, trying to make sense of my surrounding. After I did, I sat up to feel another person’s presence beside me. My impulsiveness acted and I quickly turned my head to my side. There—sitting on the visitor’s chair—is a figure of a guy, his dark brown, long wavy bangs which was parted in the middle hung loose in front of his sleeping face. As he snoozed, his shoulders moved up an down in a slow, yet apparent movement. He looks like a prince. I didn’t notice that I was staring daggers at him until he groaned, his body moved a bit before turning into a full stretch of his limbs. “Hm?” H

(Elaine’s POV) “Miss Ozark?” Unexpectedly, a gentle voice which sparked melanchoy inside me entered my ears. I darted my eyes to the entrance and saw two unknown people standing there. “Miss Ozark, what do you think you’re doing?” The female who holds that soothing gentle voice trotted to me while her face twisted into a look of concern, the clacking of her high heels filled the silent air. When she was near, I could smell a gentle and sweet scent wafting from her, like a scent of a kind person. Her clear pair of light blue eyes stared into mine as she lead me back to my bed. While I was being seated, I peeked past the kind woman and saw another silhouette pacing behind her. It was a man wearing a dark blue three piece suit—a style similar to the woman except hers was light cream—with his wavy short, cream hair styled neatly, looking like a corporate. He halted briefly at the end of my bed and placed a what looks like a fruit basket on the small table of the

(Elaine’s POV) I don’t want to hurt anyone, especially those who were kind to me. But as if I’m cursed to only be able to spite others, I refused their help like I’m fine even though I know I’m not. Even after Miss Jonas and Mister Michaelis had left the room, her despaired face etched strongly inside my brain. I curled on my bed and hugged myself as I shrank in the darkness of the night. My stomach started to growl wanting to be filled, but I’m too distracted to eat anything. It’s okay, I’ve faced worst starvation than this, so I’ll be fine. Again I recalled those slumped shoulders as they left the room a couple of hours ago. How Miss Jonas still harbored hope to me even though she looked so sad, and how Mister Michaelis threw me a complicated look, an expression between conflict and pressure. The crease of his thin eyebrows were the only indication of his expression, yet I’ve lived long enough to know what other are thinking about me. Not all of them harbor

(Asher’s POV) “Okay, heck.” I heaved a sigh and stretched my neck . In front of me, the flesh monster is taking its time to form to it’s fullest monstrosity. I can’t bet my luck to try killing it when it was forming as I don’t want to die again after just a week escaping The Flesh, so in the meantime, I rolled the white knitwear—which I know will turn red later because of how violent I’ll tear this creature in front of me apart—and then unzipped my hockey bag which I stored my modified hockey stick and my kitchen knife. The completion of it’s formation was usually signaled with it’s outer layer hollowing into several medium sized holes to let the tentacles portrude outside, and that’s when I strike. I charged forward, before leaping to spin my body and land a blow which split its huge body into two. Although that blow looks fatal, that alone wasn’t enough to kill it actually. Based on my experience, these creatures functions like a golem, with a core hidden somewhere

(Asher’s POV) “I said let me in!” I shouted, trying to push through two male nurses who blocked my way to inside the emergency room. “Sir, please calm down. The patient is being treated by the doctor.” One of the nurses tried to calm my nerve. Under normal circumstances, I am an easily calm person, but this is Elaine we’re talking about. She’s not one to keep herself alive even if she’s told to, and I’m worried she might even be happy if she died. “Shit…” I gritted my teeth. While I’m still struggling, suddenly I heard a voice coming from behind me. “What is this all about?” The voice is smooth although a bit deep. I turned around to see two figure not too far from me. One is a male—looking like he’s in his mid 20’s and is oozing with sophisticated aura although he wore a casual outfit of v-neck caramel knitwear paired with a pair of straight cut black trousers. The other one is also sophisticated like him—but more so elegant with her ashen bl

The room fell silent for a few seconds before his voice broke down the stillness. “You’re not sitting?” He turned to me. I dithered for a bit—glancing at him before I sauntered to the chair he motioned me to sit on. Because of the incident where she jumped down the building, I noticed that she got relocated to a VIP room on the first floor. Luckily the two of them came and lead the way to her new ward room. If not, I might have to spend some time looking out for her new whereabout. After sitting down, I inadvertently yawned. I looked at the digital watch installed on the wall and it displayed a huge red 12 on the black slate. “Are you sleepy?” Mister Michaelis asked the obvious. I nodded slowly as a response. I mean, of course I would. I was resting at home when I suddenly got summoned inside The Flesh and I have to fight the flesh monster in addition of heading immediately to the hospital right after I returned to the real world. Luckily I to

(Elaine’s POV) “Treasure yourself more…” A muffled voice lingered inside my mind from my ears, accompanied by a gentle touch coming from a mysterious source. Somehow I feel like I’m free from my troubles and was reborn; as if I’m an entirely different person. I also felt strangely warm and… wet? I rolled my irises, trying to rip my eyelids open but My Lord, why is it so heavy? After a few moments of me literally struggling to open my eyes, I managed to crook it open for a bit. Immediately, a blinding ray of light enters my squinted view as I frowned. I tried to accostume myself with the light, which took a few moments for me to open my eyes fully. “…Huh…?” I breathed. Where am I? I calmed down a bit when I think that I might still be inside the ward room. But, shouldn’t I be dead already? I blinked my eyes several times to figure out my surroundings. This place definitely doesn’t look at all like the he
