The smell of blood invaded my nostrils. I watched helplessly as the woman standing over me raised her sword. I was completely drained, I had no mana left, no items, nothing. As the crimson tendrils held me down by my arms and legs, all I could do was wait for my death.

As the sword drew near, I felt the last bit of courage I had disappear. I was going to die. Alone. In this god forsaken place filled with evil. And for what? To protect those ‘friends’? The same people who mocked me, took advantage of, and used me?

Oh, who am I trying to fool? I was here only because of my own greed. Because I wanted to be useful to someone. Because I wanted to that group to need me. To value me. To have a reason to keep me around. How naïve I was, thinking that power would grant those wishes. All it did was help build a wall between me and everyone else.

The sword approached. I saw the purple light reflect off the sword’s blade. After everything I went through, I hadn’t expected my death to be by the hands of another player. I saw her smile, but this time I didn’t think it was beautiful. It was an ugly smile because it was genuine. She was enjoying watching me die. She was enjoying killing me.

The sword struck my chest and pierced my heart. I let out a scream of pain and agony. The pain was so real, all of this was so real. It shouldn’t be, but it was. What should have been a simple game had become my new reality – all of our new reality. A reality filled with magic, war, blood, and death.

My vision darkened as the pain slowly faded. I felt the last of my vitality leave my body. It felt cold. I wondered to myself, when would I stop being? When would my thoughts disappear?

Soon, I saw those words I feared for all this time appear before me. “DEATH”, in the pale blue font the game always used. They remained suspended in the air for several seconds. It was over. After a long time of fighting, grinding, and exploring, it was finally over. I had died. This was the end of my story.

Suddenly, words before me shifted and changed into something different. I took a shallow breath as I heard a faint heartbeat.

After Shen Yiqiu woke up from a coma, the first thing he did was to make a noise to see Qin Qianrou, and the others ignored him. In her previous life, her whole family suffered a traffic accident and her parents died.
When she woke up from the rebirth, she understood that the creditor who was staying outside the ward was not a good person, and that her parents and friends who had traveled thousands of miles were actually coveting the inheritance. The only person who could save her from the predicament seemed to be the upright female reporter.
Qin Qianrou is not at all as gentle as her name, and has been a well-known local reporter for several years. She takes the interview questions that others don’t want to take over, she dares to interview the characters that others dare not, and she can do the areas that others can’t touch.
Do your best to restore the truth.
As capable and cold as her, she went to the hospital because of a strange call. The pale child on the hospital bed rushed over as soon as she saw her, screaming hoarsely, “Aunt Qin, save me!”
From then on, Qin Qianrou had a small tail beside her. At first, she would only follow her, occasionally peeking at her shyly. Later, the child became more and more powerful. Not only did he accompany her out for interviews, but he also protected her everywhere, eliminating all dangers.
Until one night, the moon was sultry, Shen Yiqiu threw herself into her arms again, and said sincerely, “Aunt Qin, I love you.”
