I Slay the Gods in My Dreams

Ye Xun has been alive for eighteen years, and there’s only one thing he’s ever done: have the same nightmare.

In the dream, a dilapidated temple is swallowed by eternal darkness. The shrine stands empty. He has had this dream ever since he could walk, right through high school graduation and getting into S University, while everyone told him, “You’re just stressed,” “Watch something cheerful,” and “You’re overthinking it.”

He thought so too. Until that stormy night, when lightning tore open the sky and his dream alike. On the ruined shrine in the temple, a three-eyed Buddha slowly opened its eyes.

Three days later, an unsigned letter arrived at his dorm. It contained only a black card and an address.

The address belonged to an organization called “Peach Haven.” Its members, who call themselves “Night Watchers,” deal with all kinds of things that shouldn’t exist in the shadows of the city. They told Ye Xun that the temple in his dream was real. The Buddha was real, too. And the nightmare he’d had for eighteen years was the most fragile boundary between the real world and the realm of the gods.

Either be devoured by a god in your dreams.

Or become the Night Watcher who slays gods in the dreamscape.
