Max-Level Expert Pretends to Be a Newbie in an Infinite Game

Shi Zhen had been deceived so cruelly.

She was a spirit born from a horror game. If people were evil, she was evil; if people were kind, she was kind.

Yet the world saw her as a monster that had to be exterminated.

When conventional methods failed, they sent a man radiating warmth to get close to her and soften her heart. After she handed over control of the horror game’s core, he killed her.

Shi Zhen returned, reborn as an ordinary college student, carrying a boundless hatred.

Entering the game:

Some saw her beauty and were seized by a desire to possess her.

Some saw her innocence and wanted to lure her into making mistakes.

But they never expected the college student to clear one level after another,

rapidly climbing the combat rankings

and becoming someone even the top teams kept their eyes on.

Still, that wasn’t enough to make the God of Terror take notice.

Until

The God of Terror realized his control over the game was gradually slipping. Someone seemed to be fighting him for his power.

Shi Zhen realized the man had noticed.

It didn’t matter.

She wanted him to know. She had returned to kill her way back to the top.

The scarlet eyes no longer held the hatred she’d felt upon regaining her life, only resolve!

She was the spirit of the horror game. She would take it back. No one would ever be allowed to use it as a tool to satisfy their selfish desires!

…

Shi Zhen rose to prominence and entered the Hall of Fame.

The Hall of Fame’s verdict: born evil.

Players avoided her like the plague.

Then one day, Shi Zhen appeared in a beginner horror scenario,

protecting and comforting a young man at every turn, speaking softly to soothe him.

The players: Even a demon can be tender?

But wait!

That man wasn’t some newbie. He was the Dark Child, who had repeatedly provoked the God of Terror and was wanted by the entire game!

We’re done for.

Two big shots pretending to be newbies? What kind of horror-game kink is this!
