In a world torn apart by rifts that release dangerous monsters, Espers—humans imbued with powerful abilities—serve as humanity's last line of defense. But the power of an Esper comes with a price. Overuse of their abilities leads to dangerous corruption, a force that can destroy them from the inside out. This is where Guides come in: individuals with the unique ability to calm the corruption within Espers and restore their balance.Rowan Mercer, an S-class Guide, is one of the best in his field, capable of stabilizing even the most dangerous Espers.

At first, his relationship with Rowan is purely professional—Rowan as his Guide, helping him to stay in control. However, as their interactions grow more frequent, their bond deepens in ways neither expected. What started as a simple duty soon turns into a complex relationship where power, trust, and vulnerability collide.As the world around them faces escalating threats from rifts, Rowan and Lucian must navigate not only their personal challenges but also the dangerous world of Espers and Guides. Their bond will be tested as they fight together against the corrupting forces that threaten them both.In Corrupted Bonds, survival isn’t just about battling monsters from the rifts—it's about fighting the darkness within themselves and finding a way to stay connected in a world that’s constantly pulling them apart.

The world froze.Literally froze. The chattering students, the falling cherry blossoms outside the window, even the dust motes in the air – all suspended in perfect stillness.“Oh wonderful hero,” a melodious voice echoed through the room. “Your world faces a terrible crisis, and you have been chosen to—”“No,” he said flatly.A pause. Then a shimmer of golden light coalesced into the form of a beautiful woman in flowing robes. She blinked at him. “I... what?”“I said no. I'm not interested in whatever quest or destiny you're selling. Pick someone else.”The goddess's perfect features creased in confusion. “But... but you've been chosen! The prophecy speaks of a warrior with a fierce spirit, one who—”“Lady, I don't care about your prophecy. I've got enough problems here without adding some fantasy world's issues to the mix. Now un-freeze time and leave me alone.”“You don't understand,” she pressed. “Our world is being ravaged by the Demon King's armies! Millions will die without—”

【Double Life】

Bai Xianyu is a well-known beauty of Da Kui, soft and beautiful, with a natural beauty.

Xie Xingyun is the son of the Hou Mansion, who became famous at a young age and was well-known in Beijing.

The most regretful thing Bai Xianyu did in her previous life was to stalk her and marry Xie Xingyun, but after years of indifference, Xie Xingyun never loved her.

–

Until, the two of them were reborn to discuss marriage.

The eldest brother of the major general holds a spear: “If you want to marry you, let him step over me!”

The second brother of the richest man is coquettish and arrogant: “Apart from being poor, how can this kid compare to your second brother?”

The third brother of the powerful minister sneered sneeringly: “My fifth younger sister is soft-tempered, she must have been deceived by you!”

The fourth brother of Xinke champion Lang Fengshen Junlang: “What’s so good about being married, brother studies and supports you…”

Bai Xianyu returned to his senses in a daze: “Okay… I won’t marry.”

Everyone was overjoyed.

Xie Xingyun stood silently outside the door, condescendingly staring at her smiling face.

–

The news that Bai Xianyu had given up on the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei spread quickly in Beijing, and the son of a family who came to propose marriage broke through the threshold of the General’s Mansion.

Seeing her turn a blind eye to himself.

Seeing her smiling and talking about marriage with others.

Xie Xingyun, who was always cold and respectful, drank wine and went over the wall of the General’s Mansion in the middle of the night, “… You said that you will not marry anyone but me.”

Bai Xianyu bit her lip, “Master Hou, please respect yourself, this is my boudoir.”

“I am your husband.”
