Fourteen Or Forteen Thousand

Every October, Elysian Ridge High School sheds its pristine facade as a peculiar energy settles over its ivy-covered walls. Known for its excellence and harmony, the school harbors no scandal—at least, not on the surface. But as the days grow shorter and shadows stretch longer, whispers begin to circulate, carried on the crisp autumn breeze. “Have you heard the rumor?” a girl whispers to her friend as they linger near the old south building, its windows boarded and walls weathered with age. Her friend shrugs, feigning indifference. “What rumor?” “The one about the demon,” the girl insists, her eyes darting toward the abandoned structure. “They say it’s caged in that building. And on Halloween, if you bring it a treat, it’ll grant you a wish. Any wish you want.” Her friend snorts, crossing her arms. “Right. Because everyone knows a demon’s a trustworthy wish-granter.” “It’s been a thing for years,” the girl presses on. “My cousin told me about it when she went here. Don’t you wonder what you’d wish for?” The question lingers in the air like a spell, their curiosity pulling them closer to the forbidden building. Yet, beneath their playful banter is a thread of unease. For decades, students have whispered about the demon, daring each other to seek it out. Some return with wild stories of impossible luck. Others leave the rumor behind, pretending it’s just a tale. But what none of them realize is that every wish carries a price—one far greater than anyone could anticipate. This Halloween, two friends will test the line between myth and reality. But when you ask the devil for a favor, you may get more than you bargained for. At Elysian Ridge High School, the real question isn’t whether the demon is real—it’s whether you're ready to face the trick or truth?

This time, although she was reborn into the body of the mentally challenged Wen Ningning, it felt like falling into a nest of fortune. The entire Changxin Houfu, filled with male relatives from two generations, adored her like their precious jewel. Who would dare to give her any grievances? Anyone who did would have to face the wrath of her general brother, her princess sister-in-law, and her cunning nephews! However, she now faced two troubles. One was her water bucket-like, chubby physique that was quite an eyesore, but she could use her designed artificial climbing wall to lose weight and strengthen her muscles; the effects were so remarkable that even the Jun Wangfu’s noble heir, Bu Gucheng, and the Eastern Palace’s Crown Prince were significantly attracted to her. But the second trouble was more frustrating: no matter how hard she tried to avoid Bu Gucheng, he always appeared in front of her. Now he even claimed that the two of them were already betrothed. Oh, heavens! She truly didn't want to have anything to do with her past life's fate and her cold-hearted fiancé. Why was this life’s aloof and indifferent man suddenly so clingy and possessive? What was going on?

I'm quite generous, honestly. Ah, before I go on I should probably give you the honor of knowing my name! How else are you going to set up your shrines for me, and sacrifice your little human foods that have no meaning to me?—What's with that though, I can't eat? I get offerings of fruit that are human sized, and useless to me—Despite your many grievances, the recognition is the least I could get. Nepri at your service!
