LOGINAfter I failed to win over two billionaire CEOs, I gave up completely. When the system assigned me a third love interest, it gave up too. [Why do you get the death ending every single time? [If you keep dying, we'll be demoted to NPCs.] My eyes lit up. [Wait, that's an option?] Then my new love interest's childhood sweetheart slapped me hard and ordered me to jump into the sea to retrieve a bracelet. I didn't say a word. I plunged straight into the water. My love interest stared in shock, then frantically ordered his men to pull me out. "Is this your way of getting my attention? You're just a kept woman. Do you think your life is worth that much?" He lifted my chin with the toe of his shoe and sneered. I forced a faint smile. "Yes, my life is not worth much at all. I'll go die right now." I snatched his wine bottle, smashed it on the ground, and grabbed a shard to slash my hand. My love interest froze. As I slipped out of consciousness, I heard him shout into his phone. "Hey, were you guys this rough with her in the earlier rounds? This player is going to die at this rate!" Did he just call out the names of my first two love interests? Perfect. I just needed to rack up a few more deaths with these guys, and I could say bye-bye!
View MoreMy new body belonged to a recent graduate in her early twenties.I found an easy job at a small company.I quickly settled into the quiet life.I went between home and work each day, content and happy.Sometimes the system updated me on the main quest in this world.[The new player is getting to know Shane. His affection score reached 20.][They moved in together.][This player doesn't seem as willing to put up with hardship as you were. Why does she leave all the work to Shane? His affection score isn't rising nearly as fast as it did for you.]I just smiled and said nothing.I didn't know how much time passed before the system suddenly asked, puzzled:[Wait. Based on your quest, Shane shouldn't have been welcomed back into his wealthy family until his affection score was almost 70. He was twenty-one then.[Why did it happen a whole year early this time? And his affection score—]The mechanical voice cut out in my ear.It beeped twice, then spoke in disbelief.[What's happening? Why i
I watched the chaos that followed my death.I had to admit, it surprised me a little.Then again, they'd lost a toy. Of course they were bored.Gavin took my body and had it cremated before anyone could stop him.By the time Shane reached the crematorium, I was nothing but ashes."Gavin! How dare you?"Shane shouted at the top of his lungs.Only a few days passed, but he had lost all trace of his old charm.His cheeks were hollow, dark circles shadowed his eyes, and his dry, bloodshot eyes bulged in a way that was almost frightening."Shane, she's dead."Gavin's face was grim as he stated the fact."You tormented her until she died. Are you satisfied now?"Peyton stood there too, stunned by the absurd scene.Whenever he was nervous, he twisted the emerald ring on his little finger.But when he looked down, he remembered that I polished the ring myself. For a moment, he thought he saw my eyes in its green stone."I don't believe it! How could Shannon leave me? I was supposed to torment
No one answered him.The body before him was a corpse.I wouldn't suddenly sit up and come back to life as I had before. I wouldn't make him think I'd played with his feelings again."Shannon Wynn, did you hear me? I told you to get up."Shane's voice turned cold.When I still didn't move, he glanced at Peyton, who was already retching."You. Lower your affection score until it's negative. Let's see if she keeps pretending to be dead.""Shannon, you hear that? Get up now, and I might be generous enough to give you a few affection points."His words went unanswered.Peyton's expression changed.His mouth hung open, and his voice shook."Something's wrong, Shane. This time feels different...""The affection meter in my head is gone...""What?" Gavin sprang to his feet.He took two disbelieving steps forward and pulled the white sheet farther down my body.In the heat, my body had begun to give off a faint smell."You said she could come back to life, Shane!"Gavin drew a deep breath and
Shane was busy with his engagement.The ceremony was long and elaborate, so he sat down and idly swirled his wineglass.As a ghost, I could drift freely through the venue and look at everything they had arranged.I remembered when we had just turned eighteen. Neither of us had any skills to earn a living, so we took whatever odd jobs we could find.One day, a group of thugs pinned Shane to the ground and beat him.I threw myself over him to protect him. The scars on my back never faded.Later, we worked at a restaurant.Shane was good-looking, so they put him out front to greet guests and take orders. I did odd jobs in the kitchen.Every night, he came to find me and emptied a heavy pot of scalding oil for me.By the end of the year, my hands were covered in calluses and chilblains.He wrapped his large hands around mine.We sat on one side of our cold bed. On the other lay the thin stack of money we had saved all year.He blew warm breath onto my hands.Hot tears fell onto my fingers
