The Sweetheart's Husband Is the Horror Dungeon Boss [Infinite]

[Blurb]

Ling Yan is an office worker. He works hard, but he doesn't grovel.

A veteran at whipping the workplace into shape, he slaps the proposal he stayed up all night preparing onto the chairman's forehead. His colleagues press their lips together to keep from laughing as the old man's face turns red.

The next second, veins bulge in the man's neck and his blood vessels swell. His skin peels away, and flesh sprouts from his splitting skull, turning him into a three-meter-tall monster. Its slimy maw, big enough to swallow a head, gapes open, saliva dripping as its hideous, grating voice pounds against their eardrums. "Ling Yan!!"

Everyone around him falls silent for a second, then two...

"Aaaah!" Screams ring out without end.

Ling Yan backs away two steps, dodging a bloody head flying in from the side. Gripping a signing pen, he leaps up and swiftly stabs the monster in the carotid artery. With a vicious twist, he cleanly tears the man's head off.

Standing amid a sea of corpses and mountains of blood, he turns to look out the window.

The horizon is dim and gray. Mutants run rampant.

[Warning! Global extreme danger!]

[Please maintain a positive attitude. If you can't, there's nothing we can do about it.]

[Bring your family and friends. Mostly so you can have someone to leave your last words to.]

[Children must be accompanied by a parent. Oh, your parents might already be dead.]

[Welcome, Hosts, to the dungeon escape game!]

[I am System E03. Matching you with an unsuitable Hell difficulty level...]

The peaceful real world from two minutes ago has become a murderous horror-game scene. The sounds of killing and wailing fill the sky...

Ling Yan lowers his head and smiles faintly. His laughter grows more and more unrestrained as the scene around him transforms and he enters the dungeon... A sense of familiarity slowly wells up, reminding him of everything from seven years ago.

...Has anyone even bothered to ask whose home turf this is?

Ling Yan soon becomes a god in this new world, takes first place on the Kill God leaderboard, and reaches the boss's lair in just a few weeks.

Once you're invincible, life gets boring. And when life gets boring, you want to fall in love.

There's a pretty good little NPC in one dungeon. He looks lovely when he cries. Maybe Ling Yan can tie him up and bring him home as his wife.

As the saying goes, dying beneath peonies is a romantic way to go.

Recently, people noticed that after Kill God Ling, the top player on the points leaderboard, pulled more than twenty thousand points ahead of second place, his score suddenly stopped increasing.

Then someone else noticed that the male nurse on the [Ghost Ship] mysteriously disappeared every night. The next day, there would be red marks from restraints around his wrists and lots of suggestive bite marks on his neck...

Some players tried to find out what was going on by kidnapping the male nurse. They nearly got tied up and hanged by Boss Ling.

Ling Yan planted a foot on a player's face and announced to the whole world, "This pretty flower is mine!"

Nobody saw the flower he held in the palm of his hand for what it truly was: vivid and thorny, fragrant yet poisonous. The man gazed at him with an intensely focused, obsessive stare, crazed and persistent, frighteningly unhinged...

And nobody knew that his pretty flower had the face of the new world's most powerful Evil God boss.

Ling Yan knew he was a flirt and a bit of a jerk. He'd dated someone in a previous game, but he was such a jerk that he couldn't even remember the guy's name.

Until one day, he saw the face of the final boss of the horror dungeons. It was exactly the same as the face of the pretty little NPC who shared his bed every night, quietly waited for him at home, and cooked for him... Ling Yan's pupils contracted...

The next second, Lu Mingsu pinned his hands down beneath him. Before Boss Ling could react, Lu Mingsu kissed him thoroughly. He didn't even have the will to resist, let alone cling to the delusion he'd always had that he was the one on top. It was laughable.

So all that playing hard to get had been a trap to lure him in.

"Do you remember me now, Yanyan?" The man's deep voice, tinged with amusement, sounded by his ear and made Ling Yan's very soul tremble.

So what had Boss Ling gone to the boss's lair to do that day?

The players couldn't figure it out.

They understood when they saw the red marks on Ling Yan's neck later.

#What?! You're saying the number-one killer and the final boss met once and got together?! And Boss Ling is the bottom?!#

Years later, the village gossip System asked Lu Mingsu, legs crossed: So when you were playing the pretty flower, he never topped you?

The Evil God chuckled. "He wouldn't dare. Yanyan's such a kind man."

#Ling Yan: I regret everything! Who the hell could have seen this coming?!#

Supreme Evil God Administration Bureau

Shenyu glanced at the player rankings and patted Lu Mingsu on the shoulder. "Someone's stolen your man."

Lu Mingsu gave him a look, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Shenyu: "Going to play the pretty flower again?"

Lu Mingsu: "If I feel like it."

Crazed, hedonistic boss-killer and god-tier player bottom x fake-weak, fake-pretty-flower, high-level hidden player and supreme Evil God boss top

The bottom only acts like a playboy with the top. He thinks he's a jerk who has used lots of people, but they were all the top. The bottom has memory damage.

One-on-one, both strong, no role reversal.

This is a companion story to E-Type Player. The protagonists know each other and will make guest appearances in each other's stories. Lu Mingsu and Shenyu are cold colleagues who constantly bicker like close friends. I'm writing this after finishing the player story. Please give it a chance!
