... ut the old man also wasn’t here.

This shouldn’t have been odd, but it already had Theron raising an eyebrow.

He hadn’t known these two for long at all. He had known Ayame the longest, and it was still just a few weeks of interaction between them. As for the old man, it was only a matter of a few minutes at best. He didn’t know either enough to know their habits, let alone make conclusions about whether or not they should be home.

Even people who had known others their who ...

[Main Story Complete: Evil Female Reforms + Chaotic Scene of Male Rivalry + Satisfying Comeback Story]Su An'an transmigrated into a restricted Beast World novel as the vicious female side character.In the book, the original owner abused the Five Great Beast Husbands: the Mermaid Marshal's ear was severed and bleeding, the White Tiger War God was covered in wounds, the Dark-Jiao Executor's scales were mottled, the powerful Red Fox had all nine of his tails broken, and the top-tier Swan's voice was shattered. Meanwhile, she was stripped of her Princess identity and died tragically on the Black Star.When Su An'an transmigrated, it was already a disastrous start.Seeing that her death countdown was down to only 182 days, Su An'an took out her ancestral medicine box.While treating the mermaid's ear, she accidentally tied the mermaid silk into a bowknot. That night, the mermaid used sonic waves to collapse half the palace, just to hide the ear wrapped in a pink ribbon.While changing the White Tiger's dressing, she scratched the soft fur on his belly. The War God bared his teeth and growled on the surface, but in the middle of the night, he nudged the young woman into the warm fluff of his tiger belly.While mending the Dark-Jiao's scales, her hand trembled, and the gloomy Adjudicator suddenly whipped his tail around her waist: “Touch my Reversed Scale again, and I'll sentence you to life imprisonment.”When the top-tier Swan sneered with a hoarse voice, “Trying to poison my voice again?” Su An'an, in a swift move, made him drink loquat syrup, and his clear singing voice boomed throughout the Whole Star System.Later, on the day the Mutant Beast's toxic fog engulfed the Beast Star, the once-despised Wasted Evil Female appeared with a syringe to save the world, followed by five giant, fluffy creatures vying for her affection: “All of you, shut up! Line up for your vaccines!”

I was some twenty-something woman dying of stage four cancer.I got obliterated by the “Truck-kun” you nerds are always joking about. Turns out it's a lot less funny when it's your guts splattered on the pavement. Crap.Next thing I know, I'm floating in the dark and this thing pops up in my face.[A choice is now available to you.][Option One: Fade.Cease to exist.][Option Two: Reforge.Begin anew.]You think you can just erase me? Hah. As if.Fueled by pure, uncut spite, I slammed the reforge button. Turns out the universe has a totally sick sense of humor, though.I woke up as a male elf. A seriously hot elf —a mage, of all things. Let's just say I was working with some… unfamiliar hardware downstairs.And Jonny? My best friend, my bro, my lifelong meat shield? The universe decided he'd look better as Yael—a stunningly beautiful elf chick with a charisma stat that was probably maxed out.For a while, we weren't just getting by. We were crushing it. It was awesome.Our new life was shattered by the arrival of Vex, an overpowered demigod who saw our world as a resource to be harvested. He was a cosmic-level threat.My pride, the same stupid pride that always gets me into trouble, wouldn't let me kneel. So I told him where he could stick it.Big mistake.The price for my big mouth was paid in her blood. Vex decided to make an example of her. He didn't just defeat her; he shattered her legs into pulp right in front of me.After that, she just… erased me. Walled me off. I went from being her best friend to a ghost she looks right through. Her hatred isn’t loud; it's a permanent debuff, and the silence is a thousand times worse than her screaming would have been.Broken by my failure and rage, the System offered me another choice.I accepted. The System laid out the cost in cold, hard code:The friendly blue “Overwhelming Pride” interface shattered, overwritten by a brutal, blood-red OS running one program: The 'Overlord Slayer'. My personality was stripped for parts. My charm and pride were forged into an 'Aura of Dread.' My guilt became a damage buff called 'Pain Eater.' My grief is now, literally, my mana pool.My quest is no longer about survival. It is brutally simple: Kill Vex. Absorb his power. Fix what I broke.But to become strong enough, I have to grind this new 'Slayer' class, and every level up feels like I'm deleting a piece of myself.The real question is, by the time I'm strong enough to squash him, will there be anything left of the person Yael knew?And even if I can fix her legs… what's she going to think of the monster who comes back?
