[Welcome to the Asylum][Seven poor patients live here. They long to live like normal people. As their attending physician, you should be able to help them… right?][Instance Participants: 7][Difficulty: A][Main Mission: Cure your patients and return them to normal]I opened my eyes to a stark white wall. A length of silver chain lay in the corner of the room.At the other end of the chain…My gaze lowered to the boy kneeling at my feet.He wore a blue-and-white hospital gown. Blood streaked his face and hands, though the wounds somehow didn’t make him look pitiful. They only added a wicked edge to his beauty.A face like his was born to sit on a throne, yet here he was, kneeling at my feet, making the most humble request.“Doctor, can you be my master?”Me: … This is moving a little fast.Behind my back, the barrage exploded.[Look at him. The mighty final boss is willing to be the third wheel.][Sorry, sweetie, but our girl already has two anomalies in line. Even if he’s

“How could that be? You couldn’t have better timing!” I waved excitedly at Zero, then craned my neck to peek behind him. “Where’s Jackson?”It was actually Zero. I hadn’t expected to run into him again in a Asylum dungeon of all places.My face felt a little warm. The last time he’d asked me something like that, back at Rose Manor, Jackson had been pressing me down on the bed.“Missy still misses Jackson,” Zero said with a sigh that was far too casual. He smiled. “Jackson was too reckless on the way in. He stirred up a few little anomalies. He has to finish cleaning up before he can join us.”Little anomalies.That had to mean the three loose mental-patient anomalies wandering the halls.I tried to ask more, but Zero had already switched topics.“If you want to raise a pet, you should pick something docile,” he said. His gaze never once landed on the pet beside me. It stayed glued to my face. “Or I can train him for you.”【Training the pet (×) Intimidating a rival (√)】【He rea

I gingerly pressed the back of my hand to the pet’s forehead. Nothing unusual.But… forehead temperature isn’t reliable.I vaguely remembered that vets usually check body temp from the other end.My hand slid down two inches—hadn’t even begun the procedure—when he grabbed my wrist.“What… are you doing?”His eyes burned bright red as he glared at me. If not for the faint watery shine in them, I might have actually been scared.Yep. He’s definitely sick.Then I remembered what Jackson had said: a gift.Suddenly it all made sense.He must’ve worried I couldn’t win against this pet alone, so he slapped a “weakness debuff” on him.Which meant… if I just stayed here for a day, I could beat this dungeon easily.Bless Jackson. I mentally awarded him a gold star and prepared to move someplace safer.But the second I stepped forward, the pet lunged again, nearly knocking me off my feet.“I… don’t feel good.”And with that, he collapsed completely.My heart plummeted.No way. No w

Both men were sprawled on the floor, breathing hard, practically beaten half to death by each other.I tried to walk over to Dominus to share my discovery, but the moment I took a step, something tightened around my ankle.The blond guy’s hand—that hand—brushed lightly across my skin, feather-soft, sending ripples straight through my chest.I cleared my throat and crouched down. “Right… telling you works too.”Dominus let out a low, mocking laugh and slapped his chest.A deep, solid thud—100 percent premium pecs.My gaze drifted on its own. Betrayed me completely.The blond guy, unwilling to lose, laced our fingers together.Dominus bared his teeth, grabbed the back of my head, and shoved my face straight into his chest.[They’ve started fighting in… another way.][Ladies and gentlemen, the love-triangle deathmatch has officially begun.][Everyone, I’m trembling.]Their competition escalated so fast I had to cut in before someone actually died.“Have either of you met the

He told me he had studied painting since he was a child.He had drawn countless portraits, and his best one had once been valued at a thousand taels of gold.“But I never sold it.”His voice was faint, almost fragile.“I wanted to give it to someone.”Ah. An artist.To them, money really is dirt.“Whoever received it must’ve been thrilled.”A thousand taels—who wouldn’t be?“I don’t know,” he murmured. “She… she never told me.”“But this time, I’ll finally get to hear what she thinks.”He lifted the painting from the sketch board and offered it to me.“Do you like it, my lady?”It was a portrait of a woman.I wore a flowing gown, standing amid a sea of blooming roses, smiling softly.A beauty like jade, a bloom among blossoms.I had seen this painting before.In the Rose Manor dungeon, Leon had found this exact portrait in the study.The chat exploded.[What?? Why does Number Three know about Rose Manor?!][Is this a glitch?][Are you all dumb? He clearly got his memories
