The Idiot Sentinel Is at the Center of a Shura Field Again!

Li Luoyan, the only son of the Alliance's chief executive, is said to be an exceptionally talented, handsome, and dashing S-rank sentinel.

Rarely seen in public, whenever he does appear his expression is stern and his posture upright. A small silver stud adorns his right ear, flashing brilliantly in the direct sunlight.

The people of the Alliance have sky-high expectations for him.

But in private

Exceptional talent: check. Handsome: check.

Dashing... absolutely not.

The chief executive's only son actually has the temperament of a capybara.

Close his eyes and he's asleep. His favorite things to say are “Whatever,” “Sure,” and “It's fine.” He's so good-natured it's almost unbelievable.

His childhood friend rested a hand on his head, rubbing and ruffling his hair.

Li Luoyan buried his face in his arms and grumbled, “Just don't mess up my hair.”

His friend paused, looking sheepish as he took in the mess he'd made of Li Luoyan's hair.

Li Luoyan yawned and closed his eyes. “It's fine. Just be careful next time.”

A friend hurried over to him: [Have you heard? The White Tower assigned you its most difficult guide! They say he can take on ten sentinels by himself!]

Li Luoyan was shoved awake and mumbled sleepily, “Whatever.”

Yet somehow, Li Luoyan, who was perpetually low on energy and wanted nothing more than to sleep and slack off, was pushed into becoming a team leader.

He was about to blurt out “Whatever” on instinct, but paused and slowly tried to negotiate for himself: [Could this one be a no?]

[No.]

Li Luoyan pouted. “All right.”

The team soon had three members. They were still missing a guide specializing in healing.

Li Luoyan searched everywhere but couldn't find a suitable candidate. So that night, lying in bed with his eyes half shut, he found a number on his terminal that he had never once called.

The video call rang for quite a while before someone finally answered.

Hearing the cold “Hello” from the other end, Li Luoyan failed to notice how unfriendly the person sounded. He blinked and asked, [Fiance, would you come be the guide on my team?]

The attack-type guide who could take on ten sentinels: [...]

Li Luoyan persisted: [Would you?]

The light on the other end of the video was dim. The person had one cheek resting on a soft pillow and lazily hugged a blanket. His pajamas had slipped halfway down, and his eyes were barely open. He spoke as if sleepwalking.

The attack-type guide who could take on ten sentinels and was naturally eager to help others swallowed: [...All right.]

Below is the preview for the upcoming story "Warning! A Nonhuman Monster Has Its Eyes on You"

A series of standalone stories; each world should be fairly short.

World One: The Homophobic School Bully Tangled Up with a Perverted Tentacle Monster on Campus

Xue Yunzhi x Wen Lian

Xue Yunzhi is a well-known figure at No. 1 High School, with one popular forum post after another and countless replies. He's cold, ruthless in a fight, and despite his handsome face, he's never dated anyone. His romantic history is a blank slate.

Then one day, someone suddenly noticed something was off: the black T-shirt he uncharacteristically wore under his uniform during a basketball game, the red beauty mark at the corner of his eye growing more vivid, and the way his lips suddenly started bleeding after being bitten during class...

Suitors appeared like bamboo shoots after the rain. Each thought he was the one lucky person who could win the aloof beauty's heart, and tried their hardest to curry favor with him.

But Xue Yunzhi alone knew the source of these strange changes.

The ever-present, slick tentacles gave off a damp chill. Wherever they crawled, they left wet, sticky marks, and their tiny suckers could easily leave red spots.

Most horrifying of all, once the swollen tentacles found a place to anchor themselves, they wrapped around it tightly.

Xue Yunzhi suddenly opened his eyes in the middle of the night, his fingertips pressing so hard they turned pale.

In the school gym equipment room.

The light was dim, and the air was thick with the choking smell of dust.

The school bully, a man of few words who was ruthless when he spoke, mercilessly shoved the quiet, unobtrusive bookworm onto the equipment.

The bookworm's plain black-rimmed glasses were casually knocked to the floor. One arm was broken, and the frames were smeared with dust.

Xue Yunzhi gripped his neck and gritted his teeth. “This is your damn doing, isn't it?”

The bookworm's bangs were swept aside, revealing a handsome, refined face. His dark eyes gazed obsessively at the person before him. After taking a punch, he licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, even wanting to follow the slender, pale fingers with his tongue.

Countless tentacles emerged from his body, waving excitedly as they climbed up Xue Yunzhi's legs. They thudded heavily against the floor, as if making a joyous, babbling announcement.

World Two: The Warm-on-the-Outside, Cold-on-the-Inside Master in a Cultivation World (Fragmented Love Interest)

Ling Bai x Ruan Yiyuan

Ling Bai is gentle and refined, with a mild disposition. He serves as an elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

In his entire life, Elder Ling Bai has taken only one disciple. Though the disciple is exceptionally untalented, Ling Bai has always treated him gently and never considered taking another. Those who don't know the truth all lament that he's trying to carve a rotten piece of wood.

Yet every night, before the ice coffin, warm blood flows from his chest into a bottle, collected without spilling a single drop. The disciple, eyes open and pupils pitch-black with no whites, stares blankly at the heart's blood flowing from his body. His lips curl into a stiff smile, his expression full of longing. “Will this make Master a little happier?”

Ling Bai tenderly strokes the face of the person in the ice coffin. The person inside has exactly the same face as his young disciple.
