She Falls in Love in an Infinite Game

[Infinite Flow + Two Powerful Leads + Mild Horror + NPC Perspective + GB + Ensemble Cast + Subtle Lovecraftian Elements]

Light refracted off the mirror, reflecting a mirage.

She swirled a glass filled with red liquid, making a wandering flower bloom on the chessboard.

Countless vines emerged from the flowers, creeping until they covered the entire board.

Xi He was playing an NPC and trying out a new life when she met a human who was very much to her liking.

He was beautiful, like a gardenia, like a lily of the valley, soft and pure white.

Naturally, Xi He loved all beautiful things, so she couldn't resist reaching out to touch him. She ended up with a hand full of blood.

Only then did she realize she had misjudged him.

Soft and pure white? Gardenias and lilies of the valley? He was clearly a bloodstained Spanish bayonet.

Vibrant, sharp, and fiercely aggressive.

How exciting! What a challenge!

Xi He: I just love things that prick me (^^_ )o

Hard work pays off. In the end, the human she'd been longing for had a bewitching, captivating red hue spreading from the corners of his eyes. He was as beautiful as an enchanting demon from a storybook. He took her hand and guided it downward, his fingertips brushing her fair, delicate skin. In a low voice, he said, “If you don't know how, I'll teach you.”

She was the wind, elusive and unpredictable.

But someone had caught the wind.
