Chapter 100: If She Realizes You Can See Her, You Die!
​
Translation by: Weebsread👹
​
【Your heart skips a beat.】
​
【You realize you’ve let your guard down.】
​
【How could a wife gifted by the Death Exam Game possibly be anything ordinary?】
​
【Your mind races, desperately searching for a way out—when you suddenly notice: the woman before you has vanished.】
​
【Now, standing at the very peak of Sequence 9, you—an Awakened—feel a surge of primal terror rise from the depths of your soul.】
​
【Every hair on your body stands on end.】
​
【Heaven’s Thunder surges through you in an instant.】
​
【But before you can react, a pair of soft—almost warm—arms gently wrap around your waist from behind.】
​
【A smooth, delicate cheek, as warm as fine jade, presses softly against yours.】
​
【Your heart plummets.】
​
【By now, Heaven’s Thunder has already solidified around you, forming an impenetrable Thunder Armor.】
​
【Ordinarily, even the most fearsome Monster or Abomination—even those matching Sequence 8—would be obliterated by such devastating lightning, unable to touch you and walk away unscathed.】
​
【But this “wife” the Death Exam Game sent you? She clings to you, utterly unaffected. Your thunder doesn’t even faze her.】
​
【This isn’t just a Monster. It’s an Abomination beyond comprehension, the thought flashes through your mind.】
​
【Her face, smooth as sheep-fat jade, gently nuzzles your cheek.】
​
【“Honey, why are you so tense? I’m just so happy you can see me! I want to reward you—really, really hard~”】
​
【You’re about to protest—No need for that, really.】
​
【But before you can utter a word, darkness crashes down.】
​
【You’re dead. You didn’t even realize how it happened.】
​
【Simulation ended.】
​
【Simulation Score: 0.】
​
【Assessment: Next time someone asks if you want a wife, you’d better think twice. After all, nobody gives away something good for free. You’ve still got a lot to learn.】
​
Lin Mo stared at the Simulation results in silence for a long while.
​
He’d known the Death Exam Game couldn’t possibly be this generous.
​
And this “wife” it had given him—her power was on a whole other level.
​
Even now, after reaching the peak of Sequence 9, strong enough to challenge those at Sequence 8, he hadn’t even managed to resist before being wiped out.
​
“Her Killing Rule—is it that anyone who can see her dies? What level of Abomination is this?”
​
Lin Mo felt that if this wife really was an Abomination, she might be even more terrifying than Chu Renmei from his last Simulation.
​
“But Option A only requires me to spend a pleasant weekend with my wife. Maybe, as long as I don’t acknowledge her—even if I ignore her completely—I can make it through the weekend?”
​
With that thought, Lin Mo immediately set the Simulation running again.
​
【Simulation begins.】
​
【You return home once more.】
​
【This time, as you leave your room and face your gentle, stunning wife (with a figure that could make saints fall), you pretend you can’t see her at all.】
​
【You watch TV when you want, cook when you’re hungry—business as usual.】
​
【Your wife pouts, trying every trick in the book to get your attention.】
​
【When you’re watching TV, she crawls inside the screen and plays the female lead.】
​
【When you’re on your computer, she transforms into the mouse beneath your hand.】
​
【You feel her—real, warm, and soft—under your fingertips as you click.】
​
【You hear her soft moans, but pretend not to notice.】
​
【You try to leave the house, but the door won’t budge no matter what you do.】
​
【A Game System prompt appears: This house is your Examination Grounds for this Option. You cannot leave.】
​
【You pretend to consider, then return to gaming and cooking, killing time as best you can.】
​
【Your wife keeps trying to get your attention, using every trick she can think of.】
​
【But you ignore her, so she puffs her cheeks and sulks on your shoulder, even sits on your head in protest.】
​
【Evening falls. You go to shower. When you see your wife, suddenly naked and pressed up against you from behind, your face remains blank—but your body betrays you with an involuntary reaction.】
​
【Your heart lurches.】
​
【The bathroom’s atmosphere turns instantly cold and oppressive.】
​
【Her pale, flawless cheek presses against yours. She sounds annoyed: “Honey, aren’t you supposed to be able to see me? Why are you ignoring me? I’m getting angry, you know.”】
​
【Sensing danger, you instantly unleash Heaven’s Thunder, flooding it back toward her—hoping to half-electrocute her, then finish the weekend together.】
​
【But, once again, darkness falls.】
​
【You’re dead.】
​
【Simulation ended.】
​
【Simulation Score: 59.】
​
【Assessment: You did well this round. You successfully avoided letting her know you could see her—until the very end, when your body’s instincts betrayed you. She figured it out. Next time, maybe consider cutting off that useless bit of meat before choosing Option A.】
​
Lin Mo stared at the Simulation results, dumbfounded.
​
He hadn’t expected to slip up at a moment like that.
​
He closed his eyes, then snapped them open, determination blazing.
​
【Continue Simulation.】
​
【Simulation begins.】
​
【This time, you skip the shower.】
​
【Night falls. You go to bed.】
​
【But your wife crawls under the covers too, wrapping her arms around you from behind.】
​
【You pretend you don’t feel a thing.】
​
【But you don’t sleep a wink that night.】
​
【She notices something’s off.】
​
【You’re dead.】
​
【Simulation ended.】
​
Lin Mo took a deep breath as he looked at the results.
​
【Continue Simulation.】
​
【Simulation begins.】
​
【This time, you force yourself to forget her existence and actually fall asleep.】
​
【But in your sleep, you’re suffocating—her chest pressing down on you. Instinctively, you push her away.】
​
【She knows—if you can push her, you must be able to see her.】
​
【You’re dead.】
​
【…】
​
【You’re dead.】
​
【You’re dead.】
​
One “You’re dead” after another flashed by.
​
But after more than a dozen attempts, Lin Mo—irritated beyond words—finally saw success: he’d survived the full two days.
​
But then he realized, he hadn’t actually cleared the Death Exam.
​
【The weekend passes. Your wife keeps teasing you, and though you can’t see her, she’s having a blast. But you’re miserable. The Death Exam Game erases you.】
​
【Simulation Score: 59.】
​
【Assessment: Just one point away from clearing. The most important thing in life is to be happy. Keep trying.】
​
Lin Mo’s eye twitched as he stared at the results.
​
“I got so caught up in the Simulation, I almost forgot the real goal was to spend a happy weekend with my wife.”
​
What surprised him most was that the wife gifted by the Death Exam Game seemed genuinely happy.
​
“So, even if I ignore her, as long as she’s entertained, I can pass?”
​
Lin Mo steadied himself and started the Simulation again.
​
【This time, you ignore her teasing the entire weekend—and somehow, she’s delighted. You make it through.】
​
【You’ve passed!】
​
Three golden words flashed before his eyes.
