There’s No Love In the Deathzone (BL)

Zein was a rogue Guide living in the god-forsaken land of the red-zone, guiding for money and survival. Until the guild he used to work with caused a tragedy. Driven by sorrow and guilt, Zein became a mercenary guide in the land bordering the forbidden Deathzone, working like a suicidal monk. One day, an overbearing Esper suddenly appeared and told him, “If you’re so hellbent to die, why don’t you come with me to the Deathzone?” A strange proposition, a nostalgic smirk. Had Zein actually met him before? Following the man into the deadly zone, will Zein find the respite he seeks, or will he get engulfed in a storm? But there’s no such thing as love in the deathzone...is it? * * * The story is set in a sentinel-verse, so there will be: - Sentinel (Esper) and Guide - Dungeon! - Romance - Action - …smut? ;) It’s a (kinda) love story wrapped in dungeon system shenanigans, with abilities and action and whatnot

Chapter 243. Murky Waters

It was the same field of withered grass. The same patch of red soil. The same glaring red sky. 

He felt courageous before, but Zein couldn't lie that he wished he visited this place with Bassena by his side. Every step that he took toward the memorial site made his necklace feel heavier. At one point, he paused. He stopped walking and just stared blankly ahead. 

His body instinctively knew, that this was the place. This was the point where he stood for hours looking at the blazing fire, filling the night sky with the stench of tears and agony. This was the point where he left his old name behind. 'Zen' was dead here. Even if Umbra did not disappear that day, 'Zen' would never come back there.
