Better Off Dead Novels & Stories

"This isn't some video game, it's real, real life. ‎ ‎ I nodded slowly. I knew that, what more could convince me otherwise? ‎ ‎ "If we want to survive, we have to do everything we can, otherwise we're better off dead. ‎ ‎ "But if you don't get out of here, you will truly be dead, can't you see that? Chry, let's find another hiding spot." I stretched my hands a little and slowly pulled away the plank, then I poked my head out and scoured the environment.

"What's wrong with my legs? Why can't I feel them yet? Are the doctors at this hospital useless? Can't they even handle a minor injury like this?" "Um…" "Stop hesitating and spit it out!" A bad feeling crept up Leonard's spine. His eyes locked onto Luca as if ready to tear him apart. Luca trembled uncontrollably. With no other choice left, he steeled himself and revealed the doctor's diagnosis. "Mr. Falkner, the doctor says the tissue in your legs has been dead for a long time. It's beyond repair. There would be no way to save them."

"Congratulations, Lucian. You have completed the mission. I will soon depart. Before I go, I have a few gifts for you." One video after another played before my eyes. After I died in that world, Mavis sold off all her assets in a desperate attempt to bring me back to life. In the end, she was left with nothing. Even after losing everything, she failed to wake me. Because of my departure, everything I had given her was stripped away. Mavis soon got into another car accident. But this time, there was no one to shield her. She could only endure the agony of ruptured organs on her own.

After catching my supposedly frigid wife, Emmy Winslow, aroused by our household robot butler, I swallowed my disgust and sent the machine to a destruction facility. I never expected that decision to cost her life. On the way to chase after the robot, Emmy was involved in a horrific car accident and died at the scene. From that day on, I became notorious in our social circle as the jealous husband who drove his wife to her death. Five years passed. Night after night, I tortured myself by wondering if she would still be alive had I not been so petty over a machine. Until today, while discussing business at a private club, I passed a half-open VIP suite and heard one of Emmy's closest frie

We are all dead, a new beginning was offered to us and I just hope they don’t regret ever doing what they did. I owe everything to them, and I will forever be grateful for their sacrifices. How time flies by so fast. I enjoy being dead in a sense. Being away from the danger of the mafia. I remember when he said that this is the only way he knows in giving me the life I deserve. I haven’t told him yet that this is far better than what I was expecting. Much more beautiful because he’s with me.

“I can remember very clearly.” “Can you remember any of them dying a good natural death?” Elder Obada asked. “Not at all,” Xavier frowned. “There you have it,” Elder Obada smiled at him. “Natural deaths elude the best of us. We die at wars, at feasts, when we want to take a shit. It’s all death, it’s all the same thing. That is the apocalypse. And let me ask you. If you eventually sort out the issues with the kingdom now, if you make peace with all other packs and successfully defeat your uncle Ghost and your Beta’s lover, Calisté, do you think that would be the end?”

I took out the box from my chest. "I could not say if you guys made the right choice. But I assure you, it's the better choice. In this world of the dead, there are only two kinds of ending for us. The worst one and the common one is to be demonized. While the other is to be caught by grim reapers and complete the process of death." My gaze passed upon them. At this time, they don't need honeyed or comforting words. What they need was the possibilities of the path they had taken.

I'll never let them bully you again. "If you don't want to live on campus, we'll buy a place nearby. The three of us can be happy again, just like before..." I shook my head and shattered the fantasy. "Mom, you forgot again. I'm already dead. Dad's leaving too." She seemed to short-circuit. She collapsed to the ground. After a few blank seconds, she covered her ears. "No... That's not true!" Pain twisted across her aged face. "Kaia, I can't live without you. I'll do anything you ask. Please... don't leave me."

"How strong can he be? He doesn't have any strength at all! We'll crush him later, lest he really doesn't take everything seriously! And this is a rare opportunity. If we don't seize this opportunity, we'll really never be able to reincarnate!" "That's right, even if we die, it's still a form of relief! However, if we're able to survive, then it's undoubtedly the best! If we're able to live, then who would want to die? Even if we're still alive, we don't know how many years it would take for us to truly come back to life!" "Yes, as the saying goes, it is better to live than to die! If we can live, no one wants to die! Death is definitely one of the worst endings. But if there is no other way

After all, he was already dead. “Well, getting a paycheck sounds realistic to me. And besides, if any of this is real, which I'm willing to believe it is, I haven't played video games for nothing, have I? I never imagined having no motivation would work out this way, I think being dead is more fun than being alive.” “I am glad you find being dead enjoyable, but I need to inform you that you need to throw away anything you believe to be true and be prepared to witness the truth of the universe. Mr. Akira, please be ready. The system is computing…
