Scepter Rose

Lone agent Wen Shichun is investigating a case when he’s unexpectedly pulled into a place known as the Eleventh Dimension—a realm feared by even the most elite operatives. Here, not only are there lucky individuals who can freely travel between worlds, but also long-lost “acquaintances” who vanished from the human realm long ago— Acquaintances?! … Yan Li, the ruler of the Tenth District in the Eleventh Dimension—a man so terrifying his name alone sends shivers through even the most hardened players—turns his cold, ruthless gaze toward Wen Shichun after an accidental encounter. But in the blink of an eye, those sharp eyes melt into something pitiful and aggrieved, brimming with suppressed emotion. Wen Shichun’s eyebrow twitches: “…Who the hell are you?” Thus begins the journey of a self-proclaimed orphaned amnesiac trying to survive in a horror game with a lethality rate off the charts: – When other players huddle together, sobbing: “This is too terrifying!” Wen Shichun nods in agreement: “Yes, absolutely horrifying… being chased down by people claiming to be my relatives.” – The First District’s Master (highest mortality rate): “Little brother, come here. It’s safe with me.” – The Second District’s Master (most brutal deaths): “Brother, I’m your long-lost sibling. Don’t believe me? Let’s do a quantum DNA test.” – The Seventh District’s Master (rumored to make players willingly embrace death): “Xiao Chun, ignore them. I’ll take you to heaven.” Wen Shichun: “…” Yan Li extends a hand: “Wife, don’t be afraid. Come to me.” Staring at the outstretched hands, Wen Shichun deadpans: “Thanks, but no thanks. This is even scarier.” Fortunately, the emergence of the New Eleventh District disrupts the existing power balance. Amid the chaos, he might just have a shot at seeing tomorrow’s sun! — When “Shi” first appeared in the Eleventh Dimension, everyone assumed he was just another rookie blessed by the gods. Later, they realized— He was the god himself. And this deity was born to guide all things toward tomorrow.
