That'll be additional.” Qin Zhiyi curls his lips. “It’s too much of a hassle that way. How about we make it a lifelong deal?”

Lin Da, a former professional player, arrived in the game "Mystic Continent" and aimed to team up with a few "Young Ladies" from Another World to conquer fifty levels of Mystic Realm and become the strongest adventurer squad. However, ever since the team had risen to fame, they had changed somewhat. "Why is your healing so slow? I almost got killed by the Magical Creatures." "The reason your level is so low is that you don’t train diligently, always have crooked thoughts about us. This 23-year-old guy is so disgusting." "Better leave the team and become my servant instead; my pet dog just needs a playmate." The attitude of the three Young Ladies chilled Lin Da’s heart, and he opted out of this team that he had been with for three years and had grown deeply fond of. Only then did they realize who the core of the team really was.

With a resounding crash, Ethan upended the entire bucket, his eyes darkening with barely contained fury. "Get the hell out of here, all of you!" He snarled, his face contorted with rage. How dare they ogle his woman like that? "You belong to me. Your body, your time, your very existence—all of it is mine to do with as I please," Ethan growled, his face mere inches from hers, asserting a claim that Lily vehemently resisted. "I don't belong to anyone," she spat, her voice trembling. "Least of all a monster like you." "You'll learn, Lily. One way or another, you'll learn your place," Ethan's lips curled into a cruel smile, promising a future of struggle and submission. "I'll do anything you want," Lily whispered, her soul fracturing with each syllable, as she made a choice that would change her life forever. "Because my name is Ethan Blackwood," he said, a statement that carried with it a weight of power and a promise of consequences yet to be seen.

At the age of 14, she was forced to take refuge in the forest after being declared the number one fugitive in the world. Nine years later, the maiden sang "Crazy, the only choice is to survive with hatred the thoughts on my mind could blow up the world.

These days, i think everyone will die because i will come for them" With hate that gave her great power, she pushed herself to survive in a loveless world, after been accused of murdering her family. In the dark world she found herself in, her weird way of finding great pleasure was killing people with fear without actually killing them. The sweet-sounding sounds of weakness.. the lyrical implores... gorgeous terror-stricken eyes... It's only fair to leave people with fear when they treat you like villain.
