9 Chapter 9: Zhang Wei's Kiss

Eren walked over to the shelf and picked up an empty diary.

He started writing everything he remembered about this story inside the diary so that he couldn't forget anything important.

As he had read it only last night, he remembered most of it. But he wasn't sure how much of it he was going to remember if he was to go to sleep again.

As his life was on the line, even the smallest pieces of information that he initially hadn't paid attention to, could become significant.

"If I had been able to find that website again, I could have read the remaining chapters. If only I had known what kind of mess I was going to get dragged into..."

As he finished writing the main points related to the first two hundred chapters, including the various arcs related to the Main Character, he placed the diary inside his System Storage.

If anyone discovered it, this could become incriminating evidence after all.

For a moment, he also glanced at the ring that he kept in the second slot.

The ring could be used to contact the person in the Hero Academy who had sent him here. But the last thing he wanted to do was contact them.

Although Elder Ren was a minor antagonist, quite a lot of attention was paid to him for some reason.

This was also one of the reasons Eren had been annoyed at the character. But now he felt glad. The more he knew about the character, the more chances he had of surviving this story.

He closed the screen, going back to bed. He didn't have the courage to even leave the room, partially because this room was on top of a cliff.

He wasn't even sure that if he fell again, the Phoenix was going to get to him in time to save him from a cruel fall.

"What kind of fool makes a house at a place like this?" he said, realizing that there were a lot of things he didn't know about this character, despite previously believing that he did.

He had always thought that Elder Ren was a strong character. But when he fell from a small height, he broke his legs. It made him realize that it wasn't the case.

In reality, Elder Ren was physically very weak. It's just that no one knew about it.

He was even weaker than an ordinary mortal when it came to physical strength. It was a miracle that he had managed to keep it hidden.

In the story, he had only seen Elder Ren scheme against the main character, but he had never seen this guy personally take action.

He had thought that it was because the character was cautious, but he was realizing that it might not have been the case.

"How was someone like this selected as an Elder of the Devil Sect?"

"Should I use the Question Voucher on the Sect Master?" he pondered, but quickly rejected the idea.

All he knew was that Question Voucher could make anyone answer. But what after the answer? Were their memories going to be erased?

If that wasn't the case, wasn't it no different than him courting death?

"Sigh, tomorrow is a big day. It's where it all starts. But now that I have taken over this body, I will make sure to survive."

"I will do whatever it takes to free myself of this fate. With my knowledge about this story, I should be able to do a lot of things."

Eren kept talking to himself, thinking about the Selection Ceremony.

Throughout the day, his mind had been stressed. He didn't even realize when he fell asleep, his body also feeling just as exhausted.

During sleep, he had a dream. A dream in which he was back on earth.

He was back at the University, getting welcomed by his students. He was teaching them various scientific theories, while answering their questions.

While teaching, Eren had almost thought that he had never entered another world. He was still on earth, and all that he saw before was no more than a dream.

He sighed in relief, realizing that he was still safe.

"Any other questions?" he asked the students right as his lecture was about to end.

One of the students raised their hands in the back.

"Yes?" he asked.

A girl stood in the back, asking, "Is it true that you will die in the first fifty chapters?"

Hearing the question, Eren was stunned. His eyes darted around the classroom, trying to find the source of this peculiar question.

He looked at the girl in the back. He was shocked to find her there. She was none other than Zhang Wei.

The only difference was that she was dressed in modern clothes now.

Even in the modern clothes, she looked just as beautiful, if not more.

"How are you here?" Eren asked, shocked.

"Why can't I be here when you can be in our world?" The girl's seductive voice fell in Eren's ears as she appeared behind him.

Her arms wrapped around him as the distance between them decreased. Eren could already feel something soft pressing against his back.

"You are not real!" Eren exclaimed, feeling the hand of the girl on his lower abdomen, slowly sliding down.

"I'm as real as you want me to be," the girl smiled as she placed her hand under Eren's chin, slowly turning him towards him until her eyes were looking deep in his eyes.

Before he knew it, the girl placed his lips on his, her hands gently cupping his face.

Eren abruptly opened his eyes, waking up from the strange dream. He sat up, feeling his heart beating faster.

Taking a deep breath as he lightly touched his lips, still feeling the lingering sense. He tried to shake off the lingering feeling of the dream. He felt like he was going crazy.

Even his dreams were getting more and more bizarre now.

"Huh? It's already the next morning?"

As he looked out the window, he noticed that the sun had started to rise again. Today was the day of the Selection.
