"Luck, you absolute bitch!"
I screamed, tearing through the twisted forest, branches clawing at my clothes like jealous exes.
Just a few hours ago, I dared to believe—maybe—Luck was just a misunderstood tsundere who didn't know how to show affection.
Turns out? She's not misunderstood. She's just cruel.
And I'm the idiot who tried to date her again.
It's been thirty minutes. Thirty. Damn. Minutes since I entered the second layer—
And I'm already running like my life depends on it.
Because, well… technically, it does.
I had been minding my own business, thank you very much, after killing what was supposed to be a rare monster.
A Hollow Mask—so rare it had only appeared once while Noah traveled all the way to the tree.
My body had taken a solid beating even with seventy percent damage absorption from my rings.
Sure, the rings absorbed most of the explosion from that unstable card…
But tree splinters? Yeah, no. Those sneaky wooden bastards slipped right through.
