Kaelen woke up screaming.
His hands flew to his face. Fingers touched skin, his whole skin, unbroken skin. His jaw moved. His eyes blinked. His head was still attached to his neck, this time he felt pain.
[THIS IS YOUR SECOND DEATH]
[I WARNED YOU NOT TO TRUST ANYONE]
"You clearly saw I did not want to follow it."
[IF YOU WERE NOT CURIOUS YOU WOULD HAVE NOT BEEN CALLED]
"But I found out something."
He moved, the sheets were tangled. Sweat soaked. His heart pounded so hard his ribs ached.
The room was the same. Wooden beams, cracks in the plaster. Spiderweb in the corner. The window faced east. Gray light pushed through the glass. The same morning again
He really prefers normal dungeons.
But the system screen floated in front of his face.
[YOU HAVE DIED. PARALLEL DUNGEON RETAINS YOUR PROGRESS.]
[DEATH PENALTY: ANOTHER DEATH WILL LEAD TO MEMORY FRAGMENTATION.]
[WARNING: REPEATED DEATH MAY RESULT IN PERMANENT PERSONALITY DISSOLUTION.]
