Chapter 4

Author: Cocojam
The red-eyed man went completely still. "Fiancé?"

For the first time in a thousand years, a look of pure shock crossed his face.

But it only lasted a few seconds. The mask was back on. That dangerous elegance settled over him again.

A playful glint flashed in his red eyes, and a knowing smile touched his lips.

"That's right, my dear... fi-an-cée. I am your fiancé, Prince Damien."

His voice was a low, magnetic whisper. It sent a thrill straight through me, making my face burn and my heart hammer

  • Horror Game, More Like a Family Reunion   Chapter 12

    The seventh day was ending. Midnight was approaching.I took the 22 Tarot cards to the manor's grand hall.The floor was black and white marble, with a huge magic circle in the center.Following my memory of the "Gate of the World" pattern, I carefully placed the cards on the circle.With each card I placed, the floor glowed faintly.When the final card, 'The Lovers', was set down, the entire hall exploded in a blinding white light.[System Notification: The Gate of Salvation has opened.][You must pass through the Gate of Salvation before midnight.][We wish you a pleasant game.]When the white light faded, three ornate doors stood in the hall.Sarah stood before the first door. Her Fear Value read 89%.Mark stood before the second. His Fear Value read 92%.The third door... was mine.My door was the most magnificent, made of white marble and gold, with four exquisite heart-shaped locks on it.[System Notification: A "key" is required to open the Gate of Salvation.]I walked to my doo

    What happened next could only be described as a slaughter.Lily's resentment formed into countless blades that instantly pierced Jessica's chest.Cassia's gaze turned Brad to stone, then slowly crushed him to dust.Gideon's warhammer smashed the other players into pulp.The entire thing was over in less than ten seconds.Clean, efficient, and utterly merciless.The live comments, which had just been worried for me, were now screaming.[My God... Is this the power of a top-tier boss?][Instant kill! They're not even on the same level!][Those players deserved it! How dare they hurt her!][YASSSS! Overprotective monster fam is the best trope and I am LIVING for it!]"Aurora, are you okay?" Aethelan asked, anxiously checking me over.The pain in my heart had subsided, but I still felt weak."I'm fine... It's just..." I looked at the mangled corpses, and my stomach churned."Don't look," Aethelan murmured, his hand gently covering my eyes. "Don't waste your tears on trash like them."Lily

    The librarian's warning made me uneasy."Let's go check it out," I said to Sarah and Mark. "Maybe someone needs help.""Wait," Sarah whispered, grabbing my arm. "Something's wrong. The air here... it feels heavy.""Yeah," Mark added with a frown. "Those screams didn't sound normal."We carefully made our way to the stairs.The moment I stepped onto the 9th floor, I felt a wave of intense malice.A strange energy rippled through the air."Welcome back, our little princess."A familiar voice came from the shadows.Jessica slowly stepped out, a fake smile on her face, but her eyes glittered with greed.Brad was behind her, along with two other players I didn't recognize."Jessica?" I looked at her, confused. "What are you doing here?""Waiting for you, of course, my dear Aurora," Jessica's smile twisted into a sneer. "Did you really think we were being nice to a newbie out of the kindness of our hearts?"Brad laughed menacingly. "Stupid little girl. You were never one of us. You were just

    On the morning of the fourth day, I began the "Pilgrimage."Before I left, I went to the manor's abandoned library.It was filled with moldy books and broken furniture, and the air smelled of decaying paper.But on a shelf in the deepest corner, I found a special diary.The cover was dark brown leather, with "Book of Laments" embroidered in gold thread.I opened the first page and saw elegant handwriting."Here are recorded the stories of every soul in this manor, their pain, their despair, and their final wishes..."I carefully read each story.The twins on the 29th floor: murdered in their sleep by a jealous stepmother.The cosplayer girl on the 28th floor was viciously attacked online for her love of anime culture and eventually took her own life.The spirit on the 27th floor was a mother whose son had committed a school shooting. She was mocked by the media for her disheveled appearance while handling the aftermath...Each story was a fresh knife in my heart."I see..." I murmured,

    I took the dagger from Aethelan, feeling its cold weight in my hand."This weapon..." I traced the ancient runes on the blade. "It's special.""This was forged from my own blood and pain," Aethelan said, his voice heavy. "It is the very thing that scarred me. And now, it is yours to wield."Just then, Lily's timid voice came from inside the room."Sister... Lily wants to protect you, too..."The little ghost emerged from the shadows, clutching a silver holy relic.It was a beautiful cross pendant with a teardrop-shaped crystal set in it."This is..." Her voice trembled. "This was the only thing Lily had... when she died..."I saw the reluctance in her eyes and shook my head, my heart aching."Lily, this is too important to you. I can't...""No!" she cried, suddenly agitated. "You're more important than my life ever was!"She pressed the relic into my hand, tears streaming down her pale cheeks."This is the 'Tear of the Innocent'. It can ward off any evil curse... Please, you have to ta

    The repair work took the entire afternoon.When night fell, Cassia and Gideon prepared a "feast" for me.The long, ancient table was set with exquisite silverware, glowing with candlelight.But when I saw the "food," a sharp pain shot through my chest.Crystal goblets were filled with deep red liquid, reeking of blood.Plates held raw, dripping meat, looking as if it had just been torn from some creature."What... is this?" I clutched my chest, my heart racing.At the same time, Damien, sitting across from me, also pressed a hand to his chest in pain.The scar beneath his white shirt glowed an ominous red, as if in resonance with my pain.Cassia proudly announced, "This is the freshest—"Before she could finish, Damien waved his hand.The blood on the table instantly transformed into golden fruit juice, and the raw meat became delicate pastries."So picky," he murmured, but his eyes were soft as they watched me.The live comments were still in shock.[That moment... they both felt pain
