She is the Dream Princess, ruler of a dream world beyond the world, and her true form is a night-blooming cereus. She was born without emotions, love, or a root of passion. When she foresaw that she needed to undergo both a trial of love and a life-and-death trial to achieve enlightenment, she sought out a high god in the Celestial Realm and asked him to pretend to be her lover so he could help her through the trial of love. Little did she know that he was the trial itself.
They had never had anything to do with each other. Then, one year, he fell deeply in love with her at first sight. From that moment on, he laid an inescapable net just to lure her in. His obsessive, twisted love could no longer stay hidden. He wanted her to grow a root of passion for him and stay by his side forever and ever.
How could she not know? I would give up on passing the trial of love if it meant being entangled with you for all eternity. If I pass the trial, you and I will have no future together. I can't bear that.
When he was certain she had him in her heart, he felt like the happiest man in the world. The trial of love is so painful. How could I bear to make your heart ache? I'll go through it with you. Let me bear the pain of longing!
My love is ordinary. I hope you won't find it dull.
Young love is simple, pure, and bold. All you want is to spend your life with someone, but it turns out that's not so simple.
I make this possible for you, and you do the same for me. We both think of each other, and we love each other deeply.
Our reunions, time and time again, make me believe we were destined to meet. You are written into my fate.
Me: Love is truly amazing. I don't think I understand it.
You: I'll spend every lifetime by your side, learning to understand it with you.
System, missions in a campus-game instance set in a dream world, handsome men and beautiful women, a tightly woven plot, and a fast pace.
(They're both hopeless romantics with a strong aversion to romantic entanglements. The heroine's obsessive, unhinged love interest is the male lead in every instance, and there are no love rivals.)
I'm no good at writing introductions, so let's get straight to the story! The feelings grow gradually.
