After the Great Extinction, the gods created a world containing multiple spaces.
Humanity can only earn the resources it needs to survive by clearing all kinds of spatial instances.
*
In this spatial instance, Lin Yue is assigned the identity of a bounty hunter.
He has to escort a frail, handsome young man to the Holy City.
It’s an easy task.
So easy that he dispatches the bandits who try to abduct the young man without even breaking a sweat.
So easy that Lin Yue even has time to fall in love with the young man.
A fleeting affair, over by daybreak.
As he casually says goodbye to the young man, tells him perhaps they will meet again if fate wills it, and leaves the Holy City with his bounty, swaying along the way--
the bells of judgment ring out, and he hears the news that the young man has been executed.
[He’s just an NPC. What’s so surprising about him dying?]
[Your mission is to deliver him to his death. You didn’t know that?]
[Don’t tell me you actually fell in love with him?]
Lin Yue loves a challenge, but for the first time, clearing an instance brings him no satisfaction.
He opens his System panel and applies to enter the instance again.
This time, he plans to run away with the young man.
*
The gods have no idea that the young man they threw into the instance as a BOSS for players to kill over and over is hopelessly lovesick.
Worse still, the young man has awakened a believer who is just as hopelessly lovesick.
And they have just handed that believer a god-slaying blade.
