Kiss
The voice next to his ear smiled, whispering softly, like the moonlight shining on the peach blossoms, given life and death simultaneously. Devastating and grim, a dew-adorned masterpiece.
Every time he uttered a word, the vibration from his vocal cords travelled through his Adam’s apple and transmitted to Ye Zun through the skin of his neck.
Numbing him, suffocating him, making him lose all reactions.
Just like the voice was ringing directly in his head, in his will, in his hallucinations.
He hasn’t been able to say a single word since long ago. Not only could he not speak, but he couldn’t breathe as well, indulging in that vast expanse of white warmth, gradually dying.
But even if he lost himself and died like this, what the other person said, the meaning of every word, was still transmitted to the brain with full comprehension.
With an innocent and dark tone, “…my dear, you seem to be…hard.”
Ashamed, but unable to give any reaction, with only the corners of the eyes leaking out an unknown liquid, either sweat or tears.
The young man’s handsome face was unknowingly covered with a thin layer of sweat. The beautiful and pure face was somewhat restrained and helpless.
The man smiled and slowly ended the neck-stuck-to-neck posture, sighing as he covered those lovely and absent-minded eyes.
A dismal voice, yet gentle, “Are you out of breath? So cute.”
Ye Zun trembled subconsciously. It wasn’t until the other man separated from him that he seemed to finally return to the shore, where he could take a breath and escape from the infinite sinking in a white near-death state.
His eyes were shielded again. He was caught, his body facing this person, but he lost the strength to resist that he had before.
——It’s Shen Yuan.
——It’s Ye Zi ah.
——It’s Shen Yuan.
——But, it’s Ye Zi ah.
Fear and love pulled at each other.
Let him do this; how do I resist?
You can fight against fear, how can you fight against love?
“Let go ba.” He exhaled a steady breath and spoke softly, with the slight meekness of someone giving up.
“I can’t ah.”
Standing in front of him was not a cold and melancholy handsome man with long hair, but the man named Lin.
He covered the young man’s eyes because he didn’t want to appear in front of him with a false appearance at this time.
However, it was impossible for this person to see his true appearance.
Now was not the time.
Isn’t that right?
Stimulation, and truth, needs to be discovered and touched bit by bit.
Although he liked the boy’s eyes very much, he also liked everything he saw when he covered those eyes.
Like a frontier that had lost its defence. He was originally indifferent and rejective, but because he lost his sense of security in the darkness, he was empty and anxious, and became only defenceless against him.
The young man’s unconsciously parted lips. Although they were usually pursed in indifference and their colour was a little pale, they were actually very attractive in shape.
When he first laid his eyes on them, he wanted to give it a taste.
In Lin’s attentive eyes, there was a black brightness that had been suppressed for a long time, and a cool and refreshing moisture.
The object that fell into the clear mountain spring might not be some rare black crystal, but a concealed volcanic rock.
With a face that was equally handsome and grim, he slowly lowered his head closer.
Ice cold, rosy lips approached the pale, fragile lips of the young man, little by little.
Ye Zun leaned back, but did not touch the tree trunk. The man had rested his other hand on the back of his head.
Looking at their position, it’s like the man covered his eyes while pressing his head, a posture of strong confinement.
Both of Ye Zi’s hands were hanging down, but this time, he couldn’t lift them up to strangle the other man’s neck like last time, threatening him to let go of himself.
The cold softness that fell on his lips made him lose all resistance.
Like jelly, pressed against his lips. At first, it was just lightly touching like so, and then, it began to tentatively touch, caressing every part along the lines of the lips.
Starting from the corner, every inch of the lips was carefully and patiently measured.
It was clearly so gentle, and it was obvious he could pull away if he wanted, as if telling him he could run away at any time.
However, Ye Zun couldn’t do anything.
He could only open his mouth slightly, to inhale air from the gaps of every contact, holding back his breath, letting himself live.
A low voice whispered softly between every kiss.
“You don’t need to restrain yourself, you like it too.”
A brief departure, then another falling kiss.
“Ah, panting so hard, it’s like you are about to cry. Do you feel ashamed?”
Pressing against his lips, the exhaled breaths were exchanged with each other when he spoke.
“It’s okay, I’m the same, I have the same reaction as you. With this distance, you should be able to feel it.”
The man hugged him tightly, but through the cold clothes, he only felt hot.
“It isn’t wrong, or a mistake. The side of the neck is a very sensitive part. It’s normal to have such a reaction when it is touched. I am the same, I also have the same feeling as you.”
Ye Zun bit his lip slightly, trembling, weakly inhibiting the invasion of inescapable kisses.
“You like it, don’t you? You like it very much. Why deny and resist?”
That voice and the body felt in the darkness was already wholly Shen Yuan, and no longer Ye Zi.
“My dear, like me ba.”
The fear of being invaded by fear.
With a low and dismal, but gentle and harmless voice, the man carefully behaved in a spoiled way towards him. “You saved Nogawa Kaoru, saved so many people. Then, try to save me too ba. All the acts you feel are wrong, the behaviours you fear, everything you are afraid of, come and try to correct and change them.”
A soft sigh. It was gentle, but it felt lonely.
“Come and save me too, come and love me ba. My dear, I will wait for you, always and forever.”
The darkness in front of him disappeared before he realised.
Only after a long time had passed did Ye Zun dare to raise his eyes to make sure.
Clouds hid the moon, only the light of the stars showered down.
In the dark and gorgeous peach blossom forest, it was silent. There was only the wind and the sound of insects.
There was only him.
It was as if he had accidentally fallen asleep while waiting, dreaming up a distressing dream.
The feeling of being kissed still lingered on the lips.
……
【 Congratulations to the player for clearing the level. The instance has ended and the rewards have been issued. You have received a bound ticket. Please go and take the train at the time specified on the ticket. This train is a special instance. After successfully clearing the level, it will arrive at the Pavas District. 】
【 In this instance world, only one out of the ten players on the team survived. The player title “Evil Spirit’s Eye” has upgraded to “Pupil of Sin”. 】
[T/N: literally, extremely/most evil pupil, I don’t know what is worse than ‘evil’ so I did what I did]
Pavas District was the third district of the ‘main middle’ sector in the entire Demon God Amusement Park.
The Pavas District was one district above the Pu’ensibarleeti District, the highest district of the lowest third sector. Therefore, getting this ticket was equivalent to skipping two districts in a row.
After Ye Zun returned to the Nightmare Border, his first act wasn’t to go back to the church. Instead, he calmly changed into the clothes of the Nightmare Border, equipped with the Pupil of Sin, and made a trip to the city in the Nightmare Border.
It’s very strange. Before he entered the instance, he avoided the entire area of the Nightmare Border, hiding in the church, not going out if he didn’t have to. But all of a sudden, after going through this instance, it seemed that he was not afraid of any of this.
Perhaps it was because his initial fear of this world came from the attack by those veteran players, which deepened his fear of the unknown.
And in this instance world, he had already seen what the most insane and terrifying player looks like after being eroded and changed by the amusement park.
The strange thing was that no matter how careful he was before, he would be noticed by those demon guards, but when he was no longer afraid and walked around with a still heart, all the demon guards he met avoided him.
Some could not be avoided, so they would stop, salute him, and then continue walking.
Ye Zun didn’t return the salute. He couldn’t and didn’t understand why he was being saluted, so he just kept walking.
But those people didn’t seem to have a problem with that either.
Even the passersby on the street at most just glanced at them without much surprise, as if it was normal for the demon guards to salute someone.
Ye Zun walked to the black market, browsing through the information stuck on the boards, listening to how the people nearby bought items, sold products and what they chatted about for a little while.
Then, he also went to buy a grey cloak and bought some information.
His appearance and departure did not attract any attention, because he only bought the cheapest information, stuff that was deemed irrelevant.
For example, how many instances you needed to clear to leave the Nightmare Border and go up a district.
Generally, people needed to go through three to five instances.
People can normally get the qualification to enter the next district with three instances, but most people knew that the higher the level, the more dangerous it was, so in fact it was the other way around.
People with low strength usually enter the next district in a dazed state after three instances, while those who are a little bit smarter and stronger will do everything possible to keep themselves in the low-level district, trying to drag out five instances. That way, they can get more rewards than others, accumulate strength, so that when they enter a higher-level district, the chance of survival will be greater.
It was not difficult to stay in the lower-level districts. All one had to do was to enter the team-based instances as much as possible, then eliminate the old players and keep the new players.
The team instance was generally a ten-person system, and the number of players at each level were fundamentally equal. The player levels were divided by the number of instances they had experienced, but in general, players cannot know the level of other players.
In a team-based instance, the more low-level players survive, the lower the amusement park’s score. Although the rewards given will also be lesser, things can be dragged out because of this tactic, they won’t be forcibly sent to a higher level by the amusement park because the rewards obtained were not enough.
There were ten players in each instance. Although the probability of players being in the same instance is very low, and even though it is impossible to determine who the teammates will be in advance, some people will establish organisations outside of the instance to collect information on all players that appear.
In this way, powerful people can know every player like the back of their hands, and once they enter a new instance, they can accurately weigh the pros and cons, and judge who should be eliminated and who should be kept.
There was such an organisation in the Nightmare Border, called Owl.
It is said that the person who first established Owl had already gone up three levels and is a big boss who deals with demon gods.
Owl did not disappear and collapse because of the departure of the founder. Before each organisation leader went up a district, they would assign a new leader and deputy leader, so Owl’s information can continue to exist.
When the new leader enters the level above, they will also feed back the information of the lower level to the leader in the level above them. In the end, the big boss standing among the demon gods can keep track of the situation of the players in the entire Demon God’s Amusement Park at any time.
Just like the Tower of Babel, a connection between every district.
Such a huge monster, just hearing about it sent chills all over Ye Zun’s body.
This meant that if players did not belong to Owl, players who are against Owl’s interests can easily be eliminated in the amusement park.
What made Ye Zun nervous was that the veteran player who planned to sell him to the city lord last time was a member of Owl.
Although these were only the excess information, it is said that Owl has always been united and protective.
Ye Zun wasn’t sure if he would be put on Owl’s blacklist if his identity was discovered.
However, this ticket put an end to his crisis.
Because, from the Nightmare Border to the Pavas District, if a normal player plays a normal game with the need to cross three districts, they need to go through 15 instances. Even without the forced downgrades, according to the amusement park’s regular clearance method, they would need to go through at least nine instances.
Currently, Ye Zun has only gone through two instances, not counting the novice trial.
However, this ticket was different.
If a normal instance clearance was compared to the nine years of compulsory education, this ticket was the special entrance examination.
As long as Ye Zun enters the train numbered 404 and passes the trial, he can cross the two districts in the middle and directly arrive at the Pavas District.
This way, he will not meet those grudge-bearing veteran players, and he will not be in Owl’s eyes.
Ye Zun tried asking for information about this ticket, but obviously, those with the ticket to enter the 404 train will either fail and be obliterated, or successfully enter the Pavas District. No matter the outcome, there was no chance to tell the people at the Nightmare Border what happens onboard the 404 train, nor what happens to those who enter it.
Although it was impossible for players in the upper-level districts to return to the lower-level areas, it did not mean that people on the upper third level and the middle level couldn’t reach the lower third level in the Demon God’s Amusement Park.
That was how some information was brought down from above.
For example, the big boss who was said to have established Owl didn’t die in the middle of an instance, but actually went up three levels in one go. This speculation trickled all the way down.
Of course, it was also possible that this was simply a lie used by Owl to consolidate their authority and deter ordinary players.
With all this in mind, Ye Zun returned to the church.
Standing in front of the church door, this was the first time he did not enter.
After lingering for a long time, he walked in slowly.
No one was inside.
There have never been any religious activities or ceremonies in the Nightmare Border’s church.
Ye Zun paused, then walked towards the living area.
That elegant and noble man was sitting at the desk writing something. The profile of his face was so handsome that it seemed to exude a holy light, and the jawline was so superior it was a marvel to behold.
Ye Zun was slightly dazed, thinking of a long-haired boy’s melancholy and drooping eyes. He suddenly felt there were some similarities.
“You’re back?”
Ye Zun returned to the present and looked over. Lin had already put away his pen, and there was a gentle expression on his handsome face. There was always very little emotion shown; even the gentleness was restrained, showing a reserved look.
“En.” Ye Zun responded, but in the next second he noticed the suitcase at the priest’s feet. “Are you going out? Or did you just come back?”
If he had just come back…
Unconsciously, the knot on his throat rolled once.
The author has something to say:
Yo, will you realise and take the opportunity to dump the priest? You already have the train ticket to run away, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Although they were usually pursed in indifference and their colour was a little pale, they were actually very attractive in shape.When he first laid his eyes on them, he wanted to give it a taste.In Lin's attentive eyes, there was a black brightness that had been suppressed for a long time, and a cool and refreshing moisture.The object that fell into the clear mountain spring might not be some rare black crystal, but a concealed volcanic rock.With a face that was equally handsome and grim, he slowly lowered his head closer.Ice cold, rosy lips approached the pale, fragile lips of the young man, little by little.Ye Zun leaned back, but did not touch the tree trunk. The man had rested his other hand on the back of his head.Looking at their position, it's like the man covered his eyes while pressing his head, a posture of strong confinement.Both of Ye Zi's hands were hanging down, but this time, he couldn't lift them up to strangle the other man's neck like last time, threatening him to let go of himself.The cold softness that fell on his lips made him lose all resistance.Like jelly, pressed against his lips. At first, it was just lightly touching like so, and then, it began to tentatively touch, caressing every part along the lines of the lips.Starting from the corner, every inch of the lips was carefully and patiently measured.It was clearly so gentle, and it was obvious he could pull away if he wanted, as if telling him he could run away at any time.However, Ye Zun couldn't do anything.He could only open his mouth slightly, to inhale air from the gaps of every contact, holding back his breath, letting himself live.A low voice whispered softly between every kiss.You don't need to restrain yourself, you like it too.A brief departure, then another falling kiss.Ah, panting so hard, it's like you are about to cry. Do you feel ashamed?Pressing against his lips, the exhaled breaths were exchanged with each other when he spoke.It's okay, I'm the same, I have the same reaction as you. With this distance, you should be able to feel it.The man hugged him tightly, but through the cold clothes, he only felt hot.It isn't wrong, or a mistake. The side of the neck is a very sensitive part. It's normal to have such a reaction when it is touched. I am the same, I also have the same feeling as you.Ye Zun bit his lip slightly, trembling, weakly inhibiting the invasion of inescapable kisses.You like it, don't you? You like it very much. Why deny and resist?That voice and the body felt in the darkness was already wholly Shen Yuan, and no longer Ye Zi.My dear, like meba.The fear of being invaded by fear.With a low and dismal, but gentle and harmless voice, the man carefully behaved in a spoiled way towards him. You saved Nogawa Kaoru, saved so many people. Then, try to save me tooba. All the acts you feel are wrong, the behaviours you fear, everything you are afraid of, come and try to correct and change them.A soft sigh. It was gentle, but it felt lonely.Come and save me too, come and love meba. My dear, I will wait for you, always and forever.The darkness in front of him disappeared before he realised.Only after a long time had passed did Ye Zun dare to raise his eyes to make sure.Clouds hid the moon, only the light of the stars showered down.In the dark and gorgeous peach blossom forest, it was silent. There was only the wind and the sound of insects.There was only him.It was as if he had accidentally fallen asleep while waiting, dreaming up a distressing dream.The feeling of being kissed still lingered on the lips. Congratulations to the player for clearing the level. The instance has ended and the rewards have been issued. You have received a bound ticket. Please go and take the train at the time specified on the ticket. This train is a special instance. After successfully clearing the level, it will arrive at the Pavas District. In this instance world, only one out of the ten players on the team survived. The player title Evil Spirit's Eye has upgraded to Pupil of Sin. T/N: literally, extremely/most evil pupil, I don't know what is worse than evil' so I did what I didPavas District was the third district of the main middle' sector in the entire Demon God Amusement Park.The Pavas District was one district above the Pu'ensibarleeti District, the highest district of the lowest third sector. Therefore, getting this ticket was equivalent to skipping two districts in a row.After Ye Zun returned to the Nightmare Border, his first act wasn't to go back to the church. Instead, he calmly changed into the clothes of the Nightmare Border, equipped with the Pupil of Sin, and made a trip to the city in the Nightmare Border.It's very strange. Before he entered the instance, he avoided the entire area of the Nightmare Border, hiding in the church, not going out if he didn't have to. But all of a sudden, after going through this instance, it seemed that he was not afraid of any of this.Perhaps it was because his initial fear of this world came from the attack by those veteran players, which deepened his fear of the unknown.And in this instance world, he had already seen what the most insane and terrifying player looks like after being eroded and changed by the amusement park.The strange thing was that no matter how careful he was before, he would be noticed by those demon guards, but when he was no longer afraid and walked around with a still heart, all the demon guards he met avoided him.Some could not be avoided, so they would stop, salute him, and then continue walking.Ye Zun didn't return the salute. He couldn't and didn't understand why he was being saluted, so he just kept walking.But those people didn't seem to have a problem with that either.Even the passersby on the street at most just glanced at them without much surprise, as if it was normal for the demon guards to salute someone.Ye Zun walked to the black market, browsing through the information stuck on the boards, listening to how the people nearby bought items, sold products and what they chatted about for a little while.Then, he also went to buy a grey cloak and bought some information.His appearance and departure did not attract any attention, because he only bought the cheapest information, stuff that was deemed irrelevant.For example, how many instances you needed to clear to leave the Nightmare Border and go up a district.Generally, people needed to go through three to five instances.People can normally get the qualification to enter the next district with three instances, but most people knew that the higher the level, the more dangerous it was, so in fact it was the other way around.People with low strength usually enter the next district in a dazed state after three instances, while those who are a little bit smarter and stronger will do everything possible to keep themselves in the low-level district, trying to drag out five instances. That way, they can get more rewards than others, accumulate strength, so that when they enter a higher-level district, the chance of survival will be greater.It was not difficult to stay in the lower-level districts. All one had to do was to enter the team-based instances as much as possible, then eliminate the old players and keep the new players.The team instance was generally a ten-person system, and the number of players at each level were fundamentally equal. The player levels were divided by the number of instances they had experienced, but in general, players cannot know the level of other players.In a team-based instance, the more low-level players survive, the lower the amusement park's score. Although the rewards given will also be lesser, things can be dragged out because of this tactic, they won't be forcibly sent to a higher level by the amusement park because the rewards obtained were not enough.There were ten players in each instance. Although the probability of players being in the same instance is very low, and even though it is impossible to determine who the teammates will be in advance, some people will establish organisations outside of the instance to collect information on all players that appear.In this way, powerful people can know every player like the back of their hands, and once they enter a new instance, they can accurately weigh the pros and cons, and judge who should be eliminated and who should be kept.There was such an organisation in the Nightmare Border, called Owl.It is said that the person who first established Owl had already gone up three levels and is a big boss who deals with demon gods.Owl did not disappear and collapse because of the departure of the founder. Before each organisation leader went up a district, they would assign a new leader and deputy leader, so Owl's information can continue to exist.When the new leader enters the level above, they will also feed back the information of the lower level to the leader in the level above them. In the end, the big boss standing among the demon gods can keep track of the situation of the players in the entire Demon God's Amusement Park at any time.Just like the Tower of Babel, a connection between every district.Such a huge monster, just hearing about it sent chills all over Ye Zun's body.This meant that if players did not belong to Owl, players who are against Owl's interests can easily be eliminated in the amusement park.What made Ye Zun nervous was that the veteran player who planned to sell him to the city lord last time was a member of Owl.Although these were only the excess information, it is said that Owl has always been united and protective.Ye Zun wasn't sure if he would be put on Owl's blacklist if his identity was discovered.However, this ticket put an end to his crisis.Because, from the Nightmare Border to the Pavas District, if a normal player plays a normal game with the need to cross three districts, they need to go through 15 instances. Even without the forced downgrades, according to the amusement park's regular clearance method, they would need to go through at least nine instances.Currently, Ye Zun has only gone through two instances, not counting the novice trial.However, this ticket was different.If a normal instance clearance was compared to the nine years of compulsory education, this ticket was the special entrance examination.As long as Ye Zun enters the train numbered 404 and passes the trial, he can cross the two districts in the middle and directly arrive at the Pavas District.This way, he will not meet those grudge-bearing veteran players, and he will not be in Owl's eyes.Ye Zun tried asking for information about this ticket, but obviously, those with the ticket to enter the 404 train will either fail and be obliterated, or successfully enter the Pavas District. No matter the outcome, there was no chance to tell the people at the Nightmare Border what happens onboard the 404 train, nor what happens to those who enter it.Although it was impossible for players in the upper-level districts to return to the lower-level areas, it did not mean that people on the upper third level and the middle level couldn't reach the lower third level in the Demon God's Amusement Park.That was how some information was brought down from above.For example, the big boss who was said to have established Owl didn't die in the middle of an instance, but actually went up three levels in one go. This speculation trickled all the way down.Of course, it was also possible that this was simply a lie used by Owl to consolidate their authority and deter ordinary players.With all this in mind, Ye Zun returned to the church.Standing in front of the church door, this was the first time he did not enter.After lingering for a long time, he walked in slowly.No one was inside.There have never been any religious activities or ceremonies in the Nightmare Border's church.Ye Zun paused, then walked towards the living area.That elegant and noble man was sitting at the desk writing something. The profile of his face was so handsome that it seemed to exude a holy light, and the jawline was so superior it was a marvel to behold.Ye Zun was slightly dazed, thinking of a long-haired boy's melancholy and drooping eyes. He suddenly felt there were some similarities.You're back?Ye Zun returned to the present and looked over. Lin had already put away his pen, and there was a gentle expression on his handsome face. There was always very little emotion shown; even the gentleness was restrained, showing a reserved look.En. Ye Zun responded, but in the next second he noticed the suitcase at the priest's feet. Are you going out? Or did you just come back?If he had just come backUnconsciously, the knot on his throat rolled once.The author has something to say:Yo, will you realise and take the opportunity to dump the priest? You already have the train ticket to run away, don't say I didn't give you a chance
