Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 187

(EP-187.1) Own place #3

187 – Each in their own place #3

My evolution was done in secret like a thief over a fence.

It was midnight, when most were asleep, or to be precise, a little past 1am.

In the unusually calm dorm room, I picked my choice. It felt like a ritual, which made the atmosphere solemn.

“Status Window.”

Reciting the cliché but intuitive line, several characters appeared in front of me.Then, I pressed on one of them.

Uuuuung-.

With that, my body was enveloped in a strange cluster of lights.

Glowing beads resembling fireflies gathered around me for a moment. Soon, my entire being welcomed an unusual warmth that had never been experienced before.

“Eueug.”

My heart thumped, and the feeling of blood rushing engulfed me from head to toe. I trembled from the abrupt change.

And before I knew it, my face touched the soft carpet.

Realizing that I had fallen, I gripped my chest without being able to take any action.

“Eurgh....”

My body felt like it had turned into a furnace.

Thump, thump.

Each heartbeat resonated in my head and ears as ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) if they were getting hammered.

Although not painful, it felt like all the senses in my body were heightened to the maximum.

It was like having Theo Gospel’s system options from volume, brightness to sensitivity all cranked up.

The closest word to describe it would be, panic.

━Let’s stop here for today, and go to bed.

━Why is there so much to do-.

Kungkung-.

━Ah, the guy upstairs is at it again. Keep it down.

The still dormitory began to feel noisy.

I never would’ve thought that a quiet night would have this much bustle.

Soon, all the sounds turned into a buzz and my eyes went dark.

“.......”

When I regained consciousness, I was in a quiet and serene space, as if all the murmuring up until now were made-up lies.

Where was I?

I felt a mix of relief and confusion. It was disconcerting to find myself in an entirely unfamiliar place, having just collapsed in my dorm room.

I’d only ever felt like this once, which was when I woke up in Theo Gospel’s body.

Seukseuk.

I looked around.

Chambang chambang-.

I was currently in a very shallow sea, just reaching my ankles.

Yes, an open sea.

Not a ripple was present under the rising black sun. It was just silence.
