Me, an S-Rank Reject, Guarding the Forbidden Zone for Thirty Years

My name is Lin Yi, and my ability is called [Severed Realm]. I can cut through anything in this world, whether tangible or intangible. The price is that each time I use it, I slip a little further toward “mutation.”

Today, the Ninth Association put my name at the top of the “Seventh Restricted Zone Ability Monitoring List.” They don’t want to recruit me. They want to silence me for good.

At the same time, a woman named Su Yue found me. She is the leader of an organization called “Guixu.” She offered me a stabilizer that would extend my life by three years and begged me to cut something apart.

I refused. I didn’t want to take another step toward the abyss of mutation.

But the screams from a dream of thirty years ago kept echoing in my mind that day.

I understood that some things simply cannot be avoided.
