Is There Something Wrong with Looking for a Boyfriend in a Horror Game?

Xia Miao was thrown into a bizarre and strange world.

The system gave her a hint: "The one who catches your eye at first glance is the target you need to romance."

Ridiculous.

As the esteemed young lady of the Xia family, she was used to others pursuing and flattering her—since when did she have to chase after someone else?

And so—

In the Crimson Moon Academy, a boy with his face wrapped in bandages gleefully turned the campus into a living hell, reveling in the terror he inspired.

She pointed at him haughtily and declared, "You’re not bad-looking. I’ll grant you the privilege of pursuing me."

The boy froze, clutching his bandages. "I’m… not bad-looking?"

In the Uncanny University, a creature as mesmerizing as a seductive ghost lurked everywhere, its fragmented body hidden in every shadow, watching its prey with eerie fascination.

Xia Miao crossed her arms, imperious as ever. "Even though you look different every day, I’ll give you a chance to pursue me—since you’ve gone through so much trouble stalking me. You’re quite endearing, you know."

The creature flushed. "I’m… endearing?!"

In the gloomy hospital, a monster concealed its six extra limbs beneath withered skin, its ruby earring glinting like a compound eye as it stared greedily at its delicious prey.

Xia Miao grabbed its ear, domineering as always. "I think I’ve fallen for you at first sight. So, you’d better start courting me!"

The monster stammered, flustered. "A-at first sight?!"

Much later, the system finally logged back in. After a long silence, it spoke: "I told you to romance a man. What the hell have you been doing?"

Xia Miao: "Just tell me—did I succeed or not?"

The system: "The keyword was ‘human.’ Are any of your boyfriends even human?!"

Xia Miao: "Huh?"
