'The hideous truth'
And you'll never be pure again'
uncomfortably as the intimidating red haired man, now known as Hyunjin, stared into my eyes. He hesitated for a second before handing me a small, cardboard box, I glanced up at him before opening the box with shaking hands.
I tore open the lid and peered inside, a plastic container? Filled with...what looked to be...meat? I glanced up at Hyunjin confused, he slightly smiled before taking an intake of air to speak. "It's meat, dumbass. You're going to cook it. You know, we can have a nice romantic dinner together." He smirked at his choice of words, a frown tugged at my lips. His smirk fell, "don't seem so disappointed." He playfully rolled his eyes before getting up and walking to the kitchen. I took a deep breath, trying to reassure myself, and trailing behind him out of the living room, and into the small kitchen,
——————————
It was weird to be eating meat, considering the fact I was facing the most terrifying man I had ever met, and considering it was the middle of the night. I don't like this, but at least the food is good I guess. At least it was an actual meal, not just meat, so that was half decent. The food itself was good, the vegetables where all seasoned well, as well was the meat, although it had a strange, sweet taste to it, I couldn't put my finger on the peculiar taste.
"Heard from Sieun lately?" He suddenly questioned, breaking the tension filled silence. "Uh, no I haven't." I quickly answered, eyeing him suspiciously, bit of an odd question to ask. He hummed in an understanding tone, before returning to his food, but speaking again a second later. "How does she taste."

"What?" I mumbled, not understanding the purpose of his words. "You heard me." He deadpanned, before taking another mouth full of his food. "No... it isn't- it can't be-" I was abruptly cut off by him. "Oh but it is." He wickedly grinned at me before setting down his chopsticks into the plate.
My breathing became a lot heavier as I rushed up from the table, and sprinted to the bathroom. Opening the toilet lid, and emptying the contents of my stomach. I heard heavy, slow footsteps come into the room, and my hair being pulled out of my face. I was practically praying that it wasn't what I thought it was. He's not- he's playing tricks on you- it's- Sieun isn't- she can't be- the meat... it's just normal meat... right?...
I breathed heavily as I sat there, embarrassingly slumped over the toilet after vomiting. I heard a low chuckle before my body being pulled up. "Aw did you not like my gift? That's unfortunate." he laughed trying to lighten the mood when terrible jokes, before wiping my mouth with a tissue, trying to get the vomit off my face.
My face heated up in embarrassment, once he was done he threw the tissue in the bin, and leaned up against the doorframe of the room. "Get out." I mumbled in a low tone. He glared at me for a second, "what was that?" He said, daring me to repeat myself. "You heard me." I replied bravely, repeating what he had said earlier, he walked over to me, his face dangerously close to mine.
"You don't get to fucking tell me what to do." He glared daggers into my eyes, and I stepped back as nerves settled in my stomach. He painfully grabbed the roots of my hair and dragged my head so that my ear was next to his mouth. All was silent for a second, before he whispered in an ominous tone. "Next time you tell me what to do, I'll fucking kill you and feed you to your own family."

My heavy breathing was the only thing that could be heard, my eyes were wide open in shock, he hesitated again, before pulling my head away, and studying my face for a moment. Before his face fell into a serious glare.
"Your coming with me" he whispered before painfully slamming the side of my head into the tiled wall, knocking me out in the process.

This chapter is probably boring and I apologise if it is and for the short length of it, it's really late at night when I'm writing this lmao.
Also if you didn't get it, Lee know killed Sieun, then gave her body to Hyujin. He then cooked her meat and him and [name] ate it, [name] of course not realising it was in fact her best friend.
I'm so sorry for the slow updates, I've been so busy and I've had no motivation at all. I'll try to write more and update more now. Stay safe :)

Marrow
Marrow was old... older than me or you. Older than the nation he lived in. And older than anyone he knew. Which is not surprising, because he did not know anyone else. He had been sitting, or perhaps leaning is the more apt expression, in a closet for many, many years, and had done nothing but stare. But eating, or rather chewing, a spider opened up another world to him. A world with a voice that was talking to him - to HIM! Marrow did not get what the voice was saying, but that was secondary at this point. And Marrow started to feel restless. Nuff said. If you like a sometimes quirky skeleton as the main character and want to ride along for its coming of age, or perhaps rather coming of sapience story... give it a shot. It is a litrpg context with skills, levels, heroes and monsters... and a skeleton. Not sure yet how fast the skeleton will level... we'll have to wait and see. As a disclaimer... this is my secondary novel... my main story is ongoing and most of my time is dedicated to that. As such, new chapters will, at first, be rather infrequent and irregular. If things go well, I may shift more attention to the story, but we shall see how things go.

The Normal Dungeon Core: Lethe
Just a normal, standard, no extra frills or gills, dungeon core LitRPG novel in a fantastical world. And as usual, a system exists! Prologue: You know all those stories about reincarnation? Where our beloved (or hated) protagonists are transferred to a new world to conquer, defeat the demon lord, rescue the princess. or are made into mythical gems of power with control over Monsters and Men (psst..a dungeon core)? Where they get a cheat-like ability, are special, granted privileges, or have knowledge from another world? Well, I read about them too in my spare time before I came here. At least, I think I did. Now, you might be asking, where is 'here' ? To answer your somewhat specific, yet vague, question my dear audience...I don't know! But what I do know is that...well nothing other than I had a past life...I think... Anyway...You are correct in assuming that I was indeed reincarnated into a dungeon core! But... ..I have no idea who I was. ...I don't seem to have any special powers or skills or cheats. ....And I was specifically told by Mr. S that I am not, and never will be, "special." Now, if you are confused, then I'm doing a great job, because you probably have no idea what I'm talking about, I haven't given you a background story, or taken you through the last few hours of my new existence. We will get to that! I promise! The main reason I am telling you this absurd and completely delusional preface, is to introduce to you the idea that I, as in me, the new dungeon core, am not "special".............. With that out of the way, how about we rewind time a bit to when I...developed my consciousness? Yes? Great! Lets goooooo! ---------
