CLEAVER OF SIN - Chapter 302: Recognition

I’m a high school student who became an author after debuting at Dengeki Bunko. After taking a year of hiatus from school to write my work, I transferred out to another high school to study, and met a girl called Eri Nitadori in school, a rookie voice actress cast as a character in the anime adaptation of my work.

In school, we treat our professions as a secret. However, Nitadori’s very popular in class, and I’m a loner…the only chance we get to talk to each other is when we take the Limited Express train together every Thursday, seated side by side as we head off for an anime, After Recording.

To improve her skills, she asked me questions regarding the profession. While I was answering the questions regarding the process–how did it end up like this.

This is what I last remembered before I lost consciousness, and the story of my near-death experience.

In her past life, Xia Wenjin kidnapped a husband to help him seize the world and sit on the Dragon Court. She hoped to grow old together with him, living in harmony, but the scumbag raised a knife against her...Reborn, Xia Wenjin guards against fire, theft, and beautiful men, swearing to live a different kind of life.The patriarch of the Xia Family was worried sick, as his daughter was known for her drama, greed, sharp tongue, shamelessness, and lack of shame... No one in all of Nanxia could compare. How would she ever get married?Later, Xia Wenjin eloped with the most handsome Imperial Grandson of Nanxia, parading through the streets of the Capital City every day.The ministers of Nanxia, having witnessed her rudeness and shamelessness, doubted their sanity after being verbally attacked by her, unanimously felt she had tainted their high-born flower of a prince, and daily petitioned for her removal.Until an enemy nation attacked, the Crown Prince led the army personally, and the Crown Princess Consort followed, repelling millions of soldiers with her words…

Blue Star has entered the extraordinary era, everything is evolving, and monsters are rampant.

Humans awaken their star souls in evolution to fight against raging monsters.

Zhou Xuan, who was doing odd jobs in the Demon Town Tower, accidentally awakened to an unscientific sign-in system.

Sign in on the ancient desolate beast and gain the power of the wild. Sign in on the weed spirit, and the star soul evolves into the nine-leaf sword grass.

The thousand-year black turtle, the ten thousand-year sea king, the immortal true phoenix, and the sky-swallowing dragon have all become the targets of his registration.

There are countless monsters in the Demon Suppressing Tower, Zhou Xuan signed in silently, and if he was not careful, he would be invincible.

Branded a scammer, a thief and a con artist, Si-eun became a fugitive following the betrayal of his friend and sworn brother Javier, the one who stole his life's work, his business from him and framed him for its downfall. Hunted by loansharks and enraged investors for months, he wandered from city to city until his luck eventually ran out.At the moment of his pathetic death, a god intrigued by his desperation to live offered him another chance at life—Only for Si-eun to awaken inside a familiar world, the world of an MMORPG game he once played, even worse… he inhabited the body of Azazel Von Astavore, a useless extra destined to die in every playthrough of the game.
