Chapter 2 - Ch 2 : Don't leave the bed

Su Yuan jolted awake, his eyes snapping open to an unfamiliar ceiling.

He sat up in bed, his head spinning with dizziness.

But what stood out the most was the intense pain in the palm of his left hand, forcing him to lift it for a closer look…

[Be careful! Don't make any sudden moves!

Whatever you do, DO NOT get out of bed!]

[This Furina… is NOT Furina!]

[If you're reading this message… it means you've died again!]

[I'll say it one more time—please, trust me. I'm not trying to harm you!]

Su Yuan stared at the carved words in confusion.

"Is this some kind of prank?"

But his attention was immediately drawn to a particular name—

"Furina."

He quickly scanned his surroundings.

He was lying on an incredibly soft, luxurious bed.

And right beside him, facing away—

A beautiful woman with light blue hair lay there, sleeping.

Su Yuan's eyes widened in shock.

"Holy crap, it really is Furina!"

"Did I actually transmigrate to Teyvat?!"

A thrill of excitement surged through him as he spoke aloud, barely able to contain his disbelief.

Su Yuan instinctively wanted to get out of bed—to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.

But then, he suddenly remembered the words carved into his palm…

"Died again? What does that mean?"

He muttered under his breath, his expression growing serious.

"Does this mean… if I step out of bed, I'll die? And not just once, but multiple times already?"

Frowning, Su Yuan raised his left hand again, staring at the warning in deep thought.

"Alright… it's not that I want to stay in bed—it's just that this mysterious message is telling me to!"

"I mean, come on, I'm a proper gentleman!"

After some careful consideration, he ultimately chose to follow the warning.

So, he lay back down, pulling the covers over himself and Furina once more.

Just then—

As if sensing someone tucking her in, Furina's body shifted slightly.

Perhaps because she was sleeping indoors, she wasn't dressed in her usual elegant and ornate gown.

Instead—

She was wearing a thin, delicate nightgown.

Furina lay with her back facing Su Yuan, her delicate shoulder blades faintly visible through the thin fabric of her nightgown.

Her graceful figure was subtly outlined beneath the soft material, leaving little to the imagination.

"Ahem… don't look… don't look…!"

Su Yuan forcefully calmed himself, coughing twice before quickly turning his head away.

He had completely overestimated his self-control—

With Furina, dressed in a nightgown, lying right next to him, there was no way he could fall asleep!

Not only that, but his entire body felt uncomfortably restless, as if thousands of tiny worms were crawling all over him…

Just then—

A soft shuffling sound came from the pillow beside him.

Su Yuan instinctively turned his head to look—

And what he saw made his breath catch in his throat.

Furina had also turned her head toward him.

Her eyes were peacefully shut, her breathing was soft and rhythmic, and the corners of her lips…

Even had a little drool trickling down.

"Heh… so cute… and a little silly too."

Su Yuan couldn't help but smile in his heart.

But then—

That was when he noticed something horribly wrong.

Furina's body…

Hadn't moved at all.

She was still facing away from him.

Only—

Her head had twisted 180 degrees to face him directly.

Su Yuan shuddered violently, his entire body stiffening in shock!

"Haha… As expected of Furina, Fontaine's biggest star, the most dazzling and mysterious woman… effortlessly achieving something I could never do…"

"Could it be… a bug in Teyvat's system? A normal person's neck shouldn't be able to twist like that…"

He forced a nervous chuckle, trying to calm himself down with sarcasm.

But in the very next moment—

"Furina" suddenly snapped her eyes open and opened her mouth wide!

Yet—

There were no beautiful, sapphire-like eyes in her sockets.

No pearly white teeth or delicate pink tongue in her mouth.

Instead—

They were all bottomless, blood-red vortexes.

And from those swirling abysses of crimson, something began to squirm out—

Countless writhing worms, their bodies patterned with oily black and sickly gray stripes.

More and more of them…

Crawling, wriggling, spilling out endlessly.

Su Yuan's breath caught in his throat.

Terrified, he threw off the blanket—

Only to see that his entire body was already covered in the same writhing worms!

So that horrifying crawling sensation from earlier…

Was real.

"AHHHHH!!!"

A bloodcurdling scream tore from his throat as he rolled straight off the bed!

"Darling, it's so late... where are you going?"

Furina's voice rang out again, but this time, Su Yuan felt no warmth or joy—only paralyzing terror.

Before his horrified eyes, "Furina's" neck suddenly began to stretch, growing longer and longer—

Like a serpent's coiling body…

Like an elephant's trunk…

Like the rubber-limbs of a certain pirate…

Her elongated neck carried her head forward, bringing it right up to Su Yuan's face.

"Are you leaving me again?"

"Abandoning me once more… to bear five hundred years of loneliness all by myself?"

Su Yuan was so terrified he couldn't even speak—

But "Furina" clearly had no intention of letting him reply.

From her eyes, mouth, nostrils, and ears—

The writhing black-and-gray worms began to pour out.

Like cascading grains of breading on a frying chicken,

They swarmed over Su Yuan's body in an instant—burying him alive.

Su Yuan was in unimaginable agony—

He could clearly feel the worms gnawing away at his flesh, piece by piece...

With great effort, he lifted his left hand—

Only to see that his palm had already been devoured, leaving behind nothing but a skeletal frame…

The next moment—

A searing pain shot through his eyeballs—

And then—darkness.

The worms had eaten away his eyes.

Su Yuan could feel his entire body being consumed, little by little—

Yet he was completely powerless to stop it.

…......

Su Yuan jolted awake.

(No more dragging things out! ! Erase this entire sequence of time!)

............

[Unfortunately, you've died again…]

[So listen to me—no matter how terrifying things get, DO NOT get out of bed!]

[DO NOT get out of bed! DO NOT get out of bed!! DO NOT GET OUT OF BED!!!]

[For now, it seems that as long as you stay in bed, everything will remain temporarily safe!]

Feeling the sting in his left palm, staring at the dense lines of text, Su Yuan was at a loss for words…

He had no idea how these messages had even been written on his palm.

It was obvious—the person who wrote them must have been extremely anxious.

The strokes were messy, the handwriting was ugly…

The first few lines were still fairly neat, but the further down, the more chaotic and rushed the writing became.

Well, if it tells me not to get out of bed, then I won't.

Sleeping next to the beautiful and adorable Furina—what kind of horror could possibly happen?

Isn't this basically a reward, a blessing?!

Su Yuan turned his head to glance at Furina, who was lying beside him, her back facing him.

As expected of Furina— even her back was stunning!

But soon—

Su Yuan started to feel something was off.

His whole body was itching—

As if countless tiny worms were crawling all over his skin, wriggling and squirming…

He reached out to scratch and rub at his skin, but suddenly felt something strange under his fingers.

Su Yuan lifted his hand to take a look—

Only to find his palm crawling with countless blackened, grayish worms, wriggling and squirming non-stop…

"AH! F***! What the hell is this?!"

He couldn't hold back his scream, panicking as he frantically shook his hand, desperately trying to fling the worms off.

This is Furina's bed!

Why the hell are there so many disgusting bugs?!

Could this be the "horrifying thing" that the writing on his palm had warned him about?

After shaking off the worms onto the floor, Su Yuan couldn't care about anything else—

He decided to wake Furina up.

If he, a grown man, was already terrified by these bugs, then how much worse would it be for Furina?

What if she got traumatized from this?!

And who knows what kind of diseases these things might be carrying?

If Furina got sick from them, that would be a huge problem!

Su Yuan gently shook Furina's shoulder, calling out to her:

"Furina? Furina? Wake up, wake up! We need to change rooms! This place needs a serious deep cleaning!"
