"How much for this human?" A circle of monsters gathered around my cage, asking for my price. I sat alone inside, lazily peeling a lychee. The monsters gasped in awe: "She can peel a lychee! Amazing!" "She can even spit out the seed! So cute!" "I want her! I want to buy her!" "I'll buy her and breed her with my male human. They'll make so many cute human puppies!" Breed? I do not consent! 01 This is a bizarre world ruled by monsters, where humans are kept as pets. But humans are rare and expensive; only wealthy monsters can afford them. ... The lanterns were just lit. The only "Pet Human Shop" in Xia City was bustling. Because I was the hot item in the shop, the boss lady priced me at one hundred taels of gold. This was no small amount. Middle-class monsters couldn't afford me. But looking was free. So, outside my cage, layers of monsters surrounded me, all staring with love-filled eyes— "Her fur—I mean hair—is so smooth. I really want to pet it." "She can peel lychees! That's incredible! Only humans can do such delicate tasks." "Wow, she burped! Is she full?" "Humans eat so little. Five fish, three plates of roast meat, two boxes of date cakes, and a plate of lychees, and she's full? Can that tiny bit really fill her up?" "She smiled at me! My heart is melting!" The monsters watched me again and again. But upon seeing the price tag, they all stepped back. "Too expensive. Please lower the price," a Rabbit Demon begged with clasped hands. "I really love this little human. Today is my birthday." The Two-Faced Ghost boss lady clicked her abacus without looking up: "One hundred and ten taels." Not only did she not lower it, she raised it by ten. The monsters glared at the Rabbit Demon, blaming her for speaking up. "What do we do? It's even more expensive now!" Just then. The bronze door creaked open, and the summer evening breeze blew in. Standing at the door was a Bone Demon. She wore a floor-length red dress, her skull adorned with flowers. She was about thirteen feet tall, essentially a giant, glamorous human skeleton. The Bone Demon smiled (as much as a skeleton can): "I'll buy her! "Just right to mate with my little male human. We'll have so many human puppies!" Saying this, she threw a silk bag onto the counter. Gold beads spilled out. The monsters looked on with envy. And the Rabbit Demon? Her fluffy ears drooped instantly, and she burst into tears. 02 I was bought by the Bone Demon. Awaiting me was— Breeding with another human she kept? Absolutely not! ... My name is Lily, a 21st-century Taoist priestess. I trained at the Ethereal Peak Sect, specializing in spells, talismans, and summoning arts. I can fight! Even my master lost two front teeth to me once. To help my senior sister pay off her debts, I accepted an invitation to the Horror Game and entered this mysterious game space. Win, and get a huge sum of money. Lose, and naturally, lose my life. This time, I logged into an S-rank dungeon called "East City, West City." My mission: [Capture the Owner's Heart.] As soon as I logged in, I was trapped in a cage. There were 50 players in my batch. I didn't know where they were. I only remember— As soon as I opened my eyes, I heard the system's mechanical broadcast: [One minute passed. 18 players dead. 32 players surviving.] A bunch died right upon landing. My heart sank. Monsters are owners; humans are pets. Were the dead players tortured to death by their owners? 03 A serene mansion stood on Jujube Street. The plaque read "White Manor." That was the Bone Demon's home. She hummed a tune, got off the carriage, and carried my cage through the thin mist. Her skirt trailed on the ground like a drifting red flower. She had a loud voice: "Little Monk, look what I brought you? "Hehe, it's your wife!" She was obviously talking to the other human she kept. I gripped the iron bars tightly, anxious—the system had sealed my magic. I could only unseal it by eating a Qi Fruit. If the Bone Demon forced me to do anything now, I had no way to fight back! But when we entered, I saw an old acquaintance. —The Demon Monk, Shen Yin. The number two ranked super player in Asia! A single lamp flickered. The Demon Monk leaned on a jade couch reading a scroll. Hearing the noise, he looked up. The book covered half his face, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes and a small red mole at the corner of one eye. Seeing me, those eyes smiled, like peach blossoms dipped in wine. The livestream chat instantly exploded: [OMG, so handsome! I'm going crazy!] [Screen licking mode activated!!] [All the spring colors in the world can't compare to one look from Shen Yin!] [Who got drunk in his gaze? Me! Me!] [The person above is just drunk; I'm drowning!] [Wait— [So the one tasked to breed with the little white flower is Lord Shen Yin?!] [Ahhh! My male god and my goddess! I'm shipping them and heartbroken at the same time.] [I'm laughing and crying, boohoo, I'm splitting apart...] Everyone is overthinking. We aren't going to breed. I read the barrage with black lines on my forehead. 04 The Bone Demon was thirteen feet tall, so her mansion was naturally enormous. She seemed to like humans very much and had built a comfortable, elegant mini-house specifically for Shen Yin. Every item inside was exquisite— A bed made of Hibiscus Jade, cool and refreshing in summer. The bedding was soft, silk covers, mulberry silk filling. Lying on it felt like lying on a cloud, relieving all fatigue. The table was piled with delicious pastries and seasonal fruits. By the window sat a celadon vat, with pink and purple hydrangeas floating in the water. Beautiful. ... I have to say, the Bone Demon was meticulous and thoughtful. Lying flat like this actually felt nice! But I couldn't lie flat. The Bone Demon was waiting for me to make babies. 05 That night, I slept on the bed, and Shen Yin slept on the floor. It was peaceful. But halfway through the night, I reached out and touched something hard. A big block! Careful inspection confirmed it was muscle! Abdominal muscle! Whoosh— I woke up instantly, sat up, and was shocked to find a person lying beside me! It was Shen Yin. He opened his eyes, put a finger to his lips to hush me, and pointed secretly at the window. Outside the window, a giant green eye was staring at us! The eye was huge, occupying the entire window, blinking with smiles and anticipation. It was the Bone Demon's eye. She had put Shen Yin on the bed! After doing so, she didn't forget to watch openly, waiting to see us make babies. Chat: [That giant green eye is tanking my SAN value! Goosebumps all over.] [Right? Sleeping soundly and then a giant eyeball peeping through the window...] [Hehehe, I'm a pervert, I like it! (Auntie smile.jpg)] [The Bone Demon knows how to ship.] [This scene is both sweet and creepy.] I stiffened, too shy to move. Slowly, Shen Yin's breathing became even, as if he fell asleep. He was quite relaxed. A full hour passed before the Bone Demon finally couldn't hold on! After yawning several times, she reluctantly left. Seeing her leave, I rubbed my numb body, hugged my blanket to get off the bed, but Shen Yin grabbed my sleeve— "You sleep on the bed." With that, he went back to the floor. So he hadn't fallen asleep either.
