12 Miles Below - Chapter 18Book 2. : The first blade of House Winterscar

At eighteen years old, Lin Qingyu was married as part of a Chong Xi into the Nan’an Hou Mansion, becoming the ill Lu Wancheng’s male wife.

On the eve of their wedding, Young Master Hou lay lazily on the bed and said, “Beauty, to be honest, I really don’t want to engage in domestic struggles. I just want to drift along, eat and wait to die. I want to be a salted fish.”

A year later, Young Master Hou became gravely ill. He took Lin Qingyu’s hand and sighed, “Wife, I’m going to die, but I think I can continue to transmigrate. In order for you to properly recognize me in the future, let us set a secret code.”

After the death of Young Master Hou, Lin Qingyu was prepared to stay a widow all his life. Unexpectedly, after only half a year, the great general who had rendered outstanding military service, actually came to propose marriage.

Lin Qingyu would rather die. But the general said but one statement, “If odd, change; if even, remain the same?”

Lin Qingyu: “…I will marry you.”

After two years, the general died in battle. Before Lin Qingyu even had time to grieve, he was recruited into the palace by the Emperor.

The emperor complained aggrievedly, “Baobei, this time I have became the Emperor. My salted fish dreams have been completely shattered…”

Lin Qingyu knew that although his husband was a bag of lazybones, no one was his equal when it came to conspiracy and schemes.

He rubbed the Emperor’s head. “Don’t think about it. Get started on those reports. Behave yourself.”

When he did not know her true identity, he treated her very badly, he disliked her too much, she was not elegant enough, she was in the way...Only later did he realize that the woman was his legal wife! He repented, tried to recover her feelings, but she was determined to divorce him.

Mimizuku, a small girl with chains on her wrists and ankles and the numbers “332” branded onto her forehead, wanders into the Forest of Night seeking to be eaten by a monster. However, when the ruler of the monsters, the mysterious and beautiful “King of Night,” refuses to eat her, she tries to formulate a way to convince him otherwise.

Claudia was an ordinary 25-year old office lady before the monster apocalypse happened. She was a single mother of an 8-year old girl, making ends meet in the modern world.

One night, when she and her daughter were driving home, a silver white wolf with fiery red eyes suddenly emerged on the road from out of nowhere. She tried to evade hitting the wolf and so her car swerved out of the road and crashed on a big tree.

Claudia tried to open her eyes and she felt warm blood trickling from her head. She felt serious pain all over her body.

“I am sorry.” A voice of a boy told her.

Claudia tried to open her eyes but her vision was blurry. She only saw a figure of a teen age boy with distinct platinum blonde her close to silver.

That was the last thing she remembered until she woke up again in a world that had changed so drastically.

8 years have passed by when Claudia finally opened her eyes to a world she does not know of. Everywhere she look was in ruins, not a living soul can be seen even after she had walked for hours.

“What is this? What happened? Where am I?” Claudia was so confused that she did not know what to do.

Along the way, she will meet human survivors that will inform her of what happened the 8 years she was asleep; the opening gates of hell, and to the monster invasion that happened all over the world. The world she woke up to was ruled by monsters and demons.

What Claudia was also worried about was the powers that she was starting to manifest. What frightens her the most is that these powers she is exhibiting were similar to those of the monsters and demons that the humans fear, hence humans could come to fear her.

Follow Claudia in her quest to find the answers of what happened to her the 8 years she was asleep, in searching for her daughter, why she have these powers and how she will use them to fight and tame the monsters and demons that are now ruling the world

Claudia was chosen to be The Monster Tamer in this monster infested world.
