"You better behave and don’t scare Sister Chenchen." Tan Sui warned Tan Rui, "You’re not him; you’re ford from my resentnt. As long as you behave, when my domain upgrades, you can continue to exist."
But the Tan Rui in front of her was shaped by years of her resentnt, vividly portraying the Tan Rui in her mory, almost indistinguishable from the real Tan Rui. Now that she was clear-headed, she could distinguish that he wasn’t the true Tan Rui.
She hadn’t expected to awaken so completely.
Since her failure, she thought she could only beco the core monster in a low-level stage, repeating her story over and over. Since it’s a low-level stage, those who entered only had to follow the rules without doing anything extra, without needing to delve into the underlying reasons behind the story.
So they could never trigger the hidden tasks, and even if they did, it didn’t necessarily an they could awaken her. Crises could be triggered at any mont here, under normal circumstances, everyone would tread carefully in the first stage.
She didn’t know how long she had been staying here and had never dared to hope to fully awaken.
Now not only was she fully awake, but she also understood issues that had bothered her for countless years, filling her with expectations for the future. Even though she couldn’t leave, she still longed for what lay ahead.
The Main God of this world was actually quite decent, at least fair to them monsters, giving each a chance to upgrade and grow. Once they woke up from their obsessions, they could set their own stage rules and apply to open them, and their growth would expedite.
"Tan Sui." A sudden voice startled Tan Sui.
Then she relaxed upon seeing two figures appear in the room out of nowhere.
She knew them; they were acquaintances. She had known them since she entered this place. Especially Brother Bai Chao, she rembered they entered this place to embark on challenges together.
Back then, Brother Bai Chao was in their team, and as long as he was around and they followed his lead, everyone could pass the stages smoothly. Yet, in a place like this, getting separated was inevitable.
She was originally in despair. Later, after parting from Brother Bai Chao and being not particularly interested in passing the stages, she was killed by a monster, and due to her deep resentnt beca the core monster of a beginner stage, up until today.
Every ti a story ended, she could beco slightly more conscious and would rember Brother Bai Chao visiting her domain. But such were the rules, and it was her choice. To rid herself of resentnt and wake up fully, she could either rely on herself or on those adventurers entering from the outside.
"Brother Bai Chao." Tan Sui addressed, but she didn’t understand why such a powerful Brother Bai Chao remained here in the end.
Seeming to see through Tan Sui’s thoughts, Bai Chao said, "I cleared the stage at that ti."
Was it voluntary to stay?
Tan Sui still didn’t understand; anyone who entered this place, unless to help others, was on the brink of death or already dead. Many didn’t want to die and wanted to clear the stages for rewards and to regain new life. Perhaps Brother Bai Chao was the only one who had cleared the stage and still chose to stay here.
But she didn’t ask further, knowing everyone has their secrets.
"Congratulations, your domain is about to be upgraded," Bai Chao said.
Tan Sui wore a slight smile, "Thank you."
She hadn’t anticipated it either.
"Do you plan to see them off just calmly like this?" Bai Chao asked.
Tan Sui frowned; wasn’t that an option?
"You’ve made the environnt here too pleasant, making it easy for them to let their guard down."
Tan Sui ca to a realization; indeed, they weren’t completely oblivious. This was a stage filled with crisis. One must admit, apart from that Wei Yao, those who entered this ti were quite clever—none of the rules had been triggered even once. She dared to bet that if Wei Yao didn’t have Huo Jingchen by his side, he would have unknowingly triggered countless rules.
The guy even dared to be rude to Sister Chenchen; he should be grateful as everything here is governed by rules, or else, who knows how many tis he would have died.
But Tan Sui wasn’t worried at all; with Wei Yao’s personality, there would be plenty waiting for him, escaping here would be challenging.
Sister Chenchen seems quite formidable, doesn’t she?
Tan Sui cald down, recalling Ah Chen’s prior performance, instantly feeling much more relieved.
This place wasn’t like the outside; she indeed didn’t need to avoid anything.
"Should I act out what happened at the end of the last story to Sister Chenchen?" Tan Sui was conflicted; wouldn’t that be too terrifying? It really was scary.
Each ti, she would jump down from the third floor, blood splattering everywhere, serving as the first shock for the adventurers. When they thought everything had passed, she would turn into a fierce ghost, causing trouble for the Tan Family, hunting them down in the villa, torturing them, providing the second shock to the challengers. If they couldn’t hold back from helping the Tan Family, congratulations, they had provoked the fierce ghost, and passing the stage would be impossible.
To survive and leave, they could only stand by and watch.
For ordinary people, it was definitely an unforgettable mory, even though they knew it was a dramatization of events.
Bai Chao was a bit speechless, "Are you still not fully awake?"
Tan Sui had reacted, "I get it, I know what to do."
Now that she was awake, she couldn’t continue as per the past plot but neither did she need to pretend amiable with the Tan Family.
Actually, they were also part of her resentnt, the Tan Family in her mory, not the real ones.
She had been here for so long, unaware of how much ti had passed outside. After her death, how were the Tan Family doing? So curiosity lingered, but thinking about them gave her a strangely serene feeling.
It was as if she had genuinely started to let go.
"Once Sister Chenchen and the others leave, I need to thoroughly rebuild the domain."
"First, I want to build a high school, studying inside, catching those literate monsters to be teachers and teach . At the sa ti during high school, a university will be constructed. I wonder if there are university-level monsters here, let’s catch them and ask around first."
"Xiao Pan, would you like to also co and study?" Tan Sui asked, full of enthusiasm.
The little boy Xiao Pan, now a few years old, imdiately hid behind Bai Chao, shaking his head wildly like a rattle-drum. Was he looking for trouble for himself? Study? No, no, no, he was just a cactus, he didn’t need schooling.
"In two more hours, Sister Chenchen and the others will be leaving." Tan Sui felt a little reluctant. "Brother Bai Chao, Xiao Pan, I’ll go down to talk to them."
She glanced at Tan Rui, "Let them co back, see them off together."
These monsters were all under her domain, controlled by her, naturally with a single thought she could summon them back.
Upon seeing Tan Sui appear, everyone couldn’t help but give her a second glance, especially the three who hadn’t stepped outside with Huo Jingchen.
Her changes were significant, whether in appearance or the aura she exuded.
