“How did you know? I’ve been careful so that no one could find out.”

Adrian Kaiser von der Palzgraf, the heir of the Palzgraf family. He is praised as an angel in this world, but I knew otherwise. The public was set abuzz by the news of the recent serial mu*ders and attempted mu*ders, and all of them were done by this seemingly innocent young lord.

「 Adrian’s killing intent is rising. 」

「 Convince Adrian to lower his killing intent. Otherwise, you will die. 」

「 Adrian’s killing intent – 92% 」

Only I could know —that the world I’m living in right now is a crazily ridiculous horror game.

So far loving it! FL gets transmigrated to a horror video game and basically has to try and survive life on hard mode! You feel soooo bad for the FL she really gets screwed over by the game mode (no comfortable sleep for our hardworking FL, oof poor girl id be just as frustrated) ! Translation is perfect and easy to understand, excited to keep reading. As usual TT is one of the absolute best for translations and well worth my diamonds!

Seems interesting, honestly I love the game aspect of the novel and the problems and s*upid rules that follows like ... more>>
Spoiler

the inability to sleep without a pillow or the gold retracted at the end of the day for the damaged items, the only thing I hope will be explored more is the new game feature, I mean if I had the ability to reset I would exploit it like crazy but I don't see the MC even think about it. For now is a great novel I'm exited to see were it can go.

This story is so funny. It's scary as the FL is literally fearing for her life but her reactions and thoughts to certain things are hilarious to me. This story is set in a horror game. FL needs to figure out a way to survive. She has a system so we'll see how that will go.

I'm excited to go on this survival journey. So far really good and looking forward to more!

I've found translations up to 7-1 (end of vol.3) and I js wanna say that I wish MC would stop being oblivious, , I get that she doesn't know if demons could feel attraction and whatnot but girl pls pay more attention

This novel is a fun read, its humorous and the genres more of a romance thriller

ML is also starting to become more dependent on others (MC specifically) and his heart is warming up to MC ... more>>
Spoiler

although he's a bit obsessive and reliant on MC, , would literally do anything for her

[collapse]

This novel has so many incidents that make me cringe for MC and ik its to survive but I would've rather had died bc I wouldn't have been able to handle the embarrassment

There's some misunderstanding from side characters and both main leads though I can say that so far it's an enjoyable read

MC ML relationship:
Spoiler

as for now their relationship is basically will stop killing for her, will kill for him and one sided crush (ML>MC) but at the beginning it's more like trying to kill eachother and failing/giving up after figuring eachother out

I like that this is different from the usual Esikai webnovel I've read. However, it would have been nice if there was more interaction between the main characters, rather than the FL being bothered by a pillow for 4 chapters straight. Also, it's already 44 chapters, and there is still not much development. However, I'd say that I still like this story. The translation is good, and the plot is unique. I just wish it would pick up its pace from here.

I'll be patiently waiting for an update.

Hey the story and worldbuilding are interesting and the translation is quality enough. What ruined it for me is the idiot MC. The premise is suposed to be hardcore but if you look objectively it isnt as it has reset restart button. So the idiot MC which is suposed to be a gamer acts like an imbecile all the time in a game world settings. Cant stand her idiocy. At the begining it may be interesting but thing gets frustrating as the story progress.

It’s fun. I liked both the premise and execution. I half-expected mindless bloodshed just for the sake of it, so seeing that there’s more to it felt nice. The writing style is on the light hearted side, translation is on the upside as well. It’s completed in the country of origin, so the author won’t drop it suddenly. One of the better stories I stumbled upon in 2022.

I read the manhwa first and I thought it was amazing, especially the art and the comedy was also pretty good. I think the novel is also excellent as well but the manhwa is definitely a must-read.

Hilda and her interactions with the game system is funny as she struggles numerous times against the game which has pretty unfair rules.

I feel like the MC does act sort of s*upid sometimes and she also lacked empathy towards the people around her. She is in a game of course so no wonder why... more>> she would not have much feelings for those people but it kind of felt sad. This does improve later on in the novel though as she treats and appreciates her friends better than from the beginning.

This is a slow burn romance so the romance is pretty slow but there is a lot more at the second half of the novel. Her relationship with Adrian is interesting but also sort of concerning. I might think this way because I'm not used to reading possessive ML's but he is very obsessive over Hilda and is yandere like. This is even to the point where he felt jealous when her best friend Emily styled Hilda's hair because of the fact that Emily touched her. He was literally spying Hilda so that's how he found out.

I thought it was kind of weird that Hilda is enabling this type of behavior but then later tells him to stop controlling her so much. Like for example,
Spoiler

when she was locked up in Adrian's bedroom and couldn't leave for weeks (or days, I forgot). Hilda literally just accepted this and let Adrian do whatever but then she finally told him to release her. I thought that was weird because why did she let him confine her for a long period of time? But I guess they are both equally obsessed with each other.

[collapse]

Also I felt like Adrian had no character development. He stays obsessive over her and clearly has attachment issues.

I think you'll definitely like this type of story if you like romances where both the MC and ML are obsessed with each other and are willing to kill for the other. Even if I disagreed with some of the actions made by both the characters, I think the story was still pretty interesting and readable.

Just so you guys are aware, there were a bit of smut scenes even though this doesn't have an R-18 tag. They were a bit steamy imo so if you like smut you might enjoy them. <<less

I love this Manhwa/Novel very much. I am on chap 50 in the manhwa and I love the story so much that I was getting impatient so I decided to read the novel. I don't usually like manhwas this much because there are many things I could dislike. Art style, plot, romance, character's looks, and personality are things that I need when reading a manhwa/novel. Love it!

I didn't really gave this much of attention at first and just looked past scrolling new novels but oh no! It's a Gem! Hahaha 😆 I decided to try reading it as I was waiting for my bookmarked novels and It's totally so much fun to read despite the premise of being a horror, thriller, gore and other tags that can be applied for the story. The MC is so funny and I empathize with her for her in surviving the game! And I didn't expect the world building for... more>> his story + the mysterious ML. I am so looking forward on how the story goes and their relationship 😃 Also the game system makes it so hard for the MC, literally struggling to survive each day with the tasks 🥺😅 the "pillow notification situation" had me laughing so hard but feels pity to her. Thank you a lot Translator-sama for keeping this Amazing work! And of course Author-sama for creating this story. Fighting! 🙌❤️❤️❤️✨ <<less

The story is really great so far and has a FL with common sense and a bit of humor, the only downsides are the lack of communication between the FL and ML and how hard it is to find the right amount of chapters (goes all the way to 7-2, which would be a bit over 100 chapters) but I found a site that has all the chapters that are out and superb translations, I definitely recommend this story, its a hidden gem!

I just finished reading it.. And wow... The epilogue is really intense... I don't know what age rating it has hahaha... I am excited with manhwa version👀

The story might be cliché, but what makes it interesting is Hilda's attitude, very unaware and mood destroyer.. The misunderstandings keep going, but don't worry. Their communication is really good, so it won't be annoying, haha. The plot often changes suddenly, probably when there's a change of perspective.

It was fun, I even burst out laughing... The ending is also satisfying..

It’s really fun to read and the tension in each chapter is masterfully mixed with awkward comedy.

im curious on how the FL and Adrian will get closer (if they ever do? I’m not sure, I hope so though).

I love Romance with Horror aspects so I hope this one won’t let me down, but I’ll have to read more to decide fully.

as of now I’m looking forward to each new chapter, TYSM for Translating it ♥️

It's adorable with their dynamic and
Spoiler

it's also nice how his favourability increases everytime she compliments him.

[collapse]
The only problem would be the game system changing how she is able to act as a person.

I haven't gone that far in the novel so there is no romance and the FL is still afraid of the ML, so we only get small interactions where
Spoiler

she keeps mentioning the fact that he is an actual devil.
