Seo Jin opened his eyes slowly. His body still felt heavy, like lead was in his veins. The shallow cut on his arm had stopped bleeding, but every movement pulled at the wound. He sat up with a low groan.
The fox stretched beside him, tail swishing lazily. "Host, get up, get up! You don't want to keep him waiting, do you? The Villain is scary enough when he's calm. Imagine him angry."
Seo Jin rubbed his face. "If he wants me to fight at dawn every day, I'll die before I finish the tutorial."
The fox wagged its tail. "Then don't die. Simple!"
