"The Holy Light will bless you, child. No matter what, I will always be with you!"
In his dream, a priest was performing a baptism, elevating a player to become a Holy Light hero!
As though the curtain was rising, the scene rapidly changed—frames flicking by as if fast-forwarding.
From his humble beginnings, he started by leveling up carefully, constantly exploring, researching strategies, and paying attention to every dungeon detail. His progress was smooth sailing, and he quickly became a noble in the Sacred Hawk Duchy.
Soon, he recruited archangels, established a guild, and beautiful women flocked to him.
Step by step, he climbed to the peak.
But at the heights, the hidden daggers, the schemes, all finally surfaced.
"Why? Why did I help you all so much? I helped you conquer dungeons, fend off enemies, gave you resources to develop, always assisted you—why did you betray me?"
"Sorry, it's just a game, and they offered a bigger reward."
One by one, the 'brothers' just shook their heads.
"Didn't I treat you well? Wasn't it enough? Anything you wanted, I gave it to you. While I might have been reserved with others, was I reserved with you?"
"You're too naive. We just aren't compatible."
The woman beside him was now holding another man's hand, a look of disdain on her face.
"Why? I fought and died for the Sacred Hawk Empire, fending off orcs, battling demons. Why did you just throw me away like this?"
"You were the most suitable, the Holy Light will remember everything that happened today!"
Inside the grand hall, the lofty elders looked down at Lin Jin with calm faces.
Did they need to consider the feelings of a mere pawn?
Wasn't this their greatest honor?
"Melissa, you were the first angel I recruited, and now you're all I have left! Why are you leaving me too?"
"Angels belong to Heaven forever, and we were never more than contractors."
"Contractors? It was I who chose a contractual relationship because I didn't want to enslave you!"
"Insignificant human, what right do you have to enslave an angel?"
"Hahahahaha! Insignificant human!"
Lin Jin's smile grew manic.
"I used to think you were just cold, but now I realize you looked down on me from the bottom of your heart. I thought you were the most reliable companion!"
"Melissa, you disgust me!"
Recalling the times he fought side by side with Melissa, he now felt revulsion, deep, gut-wrenching disgust!
The Holy Light!
How could the Holy Light be so hypocritical, so deceitful?
The scene flipped back. The final image was of Lin Jin being surrounded.
He had led his army to attack the Holy Light Church, but all the human soldiers within his legion betrayed him.
They easily captured him.
The units recruited from the kingdom were always loyal to the kingdom. In the event of conflict, they would betray him at the first sign.
From the start, the kingdom controlled everything. Lin Jin had always been their pawn.
On the gallows, Lin Jin's face was calm as he scanned his surroundings.
He saw his former guild brothers, and his ex-girlfriend, who was now cuddling another man.
He saw the sacred and magnificent streets.
Finally, he looked up at the sky.
The blue sky, the white clouds—they were still as pure as ever.
Everything was so beautiful.
But this beauty, now, looked so glaring.
"Execute him!"
A torch was thrown onto the gallows, and the flames ignited with intense heat. The scorching fire burned every inch of Lin Jin's skin, scorching his eyes.
Everything about him seemed to turn to ash, crumbling, dissipating.
"Ah!"
A high-pitched scream echoed through the street.
In a bedroom.
Lin Jin clenched his fists, veins bulging on his forehead. He suddenly sat up from the bed, his pitch-black pupils shrinking rapidly as he gasped for air.
Soon, he calmed himself, pounding his chest with his fists. The pain and impact accelerated the flow of blood, helping him regain composure.
The nightmare had entangled him for an entire month.
Every day, he relived the same scenes, the same nightmare.
Step by step, he was betrayed. Bit by bit, he was consumed, ultimately falling into the abyss, turning to ashes.
Every time, he felt like he would never wake up again.
Yet each time, he stood up.
"Holy Light, Angel, I will return soon!"
Lin Jin's eyes appeared even darker in the pitch-black room.
Everything in the dream wasn't a fantasy; it was what he had truly experienced.
Since his rebirth a month ago, he had relived the nightmare every day, and with each passing day, his hatred deepened.
Thankfully, today at twelve o'clock, the game's open beta test would begin.
He couldn't wait any longer.
After eating a simple breakfast he prepared himself, he went to another room to begin his daily training.
Push-ups, sit-ups, bench presses, and boxing. His sweat quickly soaked his body, but the dull thud of his fist hitting the sandbag was like thunder.
Hatred honed his will.
It continuously roasted Lin Jin's mind, trying to burn him out, but in the process, it made his soul more condensed and increasingly resilient.
Since his rebirth, he had spent every day training, maintaining a strong body.
Only by having a powerful body could he support a powerful will.
After an intense workout, Lin Jin lay down in a sealed cylindrical device for post-workout recovery.
Half an hour later, Lin Jin woke up from his slumber, his resolute, cold gaze as frigid as millennia-old ice.
At this moment, the time showed 11 o'clock.
He went to the study. It wasn't much of a study—more like a small storage room of about 10 square meters.
Inside, there was a table in the middle, covered with piles of books.
His eyes landed on the top book, and there, he saw words that shouldn't exist in this world.
Heroes and Enemies – Complete Guide!
He flipped the pages, and the words appeared before his eyes.
