Various information was displayed on the panel. Zhang Ying frowned as he looked at the section about being entangled in strange power.

"A strange hand? The hand Li Ziqing replaced for me is actually recorded in the panel?"

This discovery sent a chill down Zhang Ying's spine.

This arm was replaced with Li Ziqing's arm after his own hand was cut off.

If this hand is called the Ghost Hand, then isn't the Ghost Eye also transplanted onto his body from other ghosts?

Are my own eyes still my own eyes?

Zhang Ying shook his head vigorously, trying to banish the thought from his mind.

Even if these eyes aren't yours now, they still have to be yours!

Anyway, there's no source indicated behind the eyes.

He moved the mouse on the panel, clicked on the elusive hand, and a line of detailed information appeared.

【The Ghostly Hand (The Dancing Girl's Ghost Story)】

Current Level: Lv3

Using the Ghost Hand allows you to touch things that shouldn't be touched. Using the Ghost Hand continuously for two hours will consume one point of sanity.

[The Dancer's Touch]

[When touching a creature with limbs, this skill can forcibly twist the creature's limbs. Each use consumes one point of sanity.]

【Mysterious Realm (Simplified Version): Bloodstained Lake】

[Deploys an open, simplified eerie domain with a radius of approximately 10 meters, during which the user can manipulate the blood in the lake to launch attacks.]

The Dancer's Touch will be triggered when the target touches the blood in the Blood Lake.

[Each ten minutes of activating the Ghost Realm consumes two points of sanity.]

As Zhang Ying read the description of the "Deceptive Hand," he unconsciously swallowed.

Compared to the eerie eye, this elusive hand is a complete game-changer!

Not only does it possess considerable skill, but it can also open the same ghostly realm as Li Ziqing.

He had seen clearly how powerful the Ghost Domain was last night; those two old men were almost completely overwhelmed by Li Ziqing!

I just don't know what the "open type" label on this strange domain means.

However, although this strange domain is powerful, it is also a major drain on one's sanity!

Each use of a skill consumes one point of sanity, and activating the Ghost Realm consumes two points of sanity every ten minutes. This makes him, a user with a sanity cap of only 14 points, extremely hesitant to use skills recklessly.

His rationality appears to be 14 points, but in reality, only 9 points are usable.

Dealing with one person is manageable, but if it's a war of attrition against a group, he'll be worn down and killed.

Fortunately, he is just a student now and doesn't need to fight.

Zhang Ying shifted his gaze upwards again, looking at the Gale Spell given by the system.

【Postnatal Peak Repair Technique (Surging Wind Spell)】

[The art of wind manipulation consumes sanity to control the wind within a certain range for one's own use]

The more sanity is consumed, the more powerful the curse becomes.

"Why don't you be rational too?"

Zhang Ying scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

Shouldn't these spells consume mana?

Is it because I lack magical power?

Or is this because of a system reward?

I don't understand it, so I'll just stop thinking about it.

Trying to use Trick Hand and Wind Surge requires sacrificing sanity.

His current sanity is too low; experimenting with skills is weakening his mind and attracting other monsters, which is too dangerous.

We should wait until we regain our senses before trying again.

Zhang Ying looked at the various manuals below the panel.

"Because she transplanted her right forearm to me, Senior Li's current condition is partially missing. If I give her back her right forearm, what will happen to Senior Li?" Zhang Ying said to himself, stroking his chin.

"But even if I wanted to return it to my current senior, she probably wouldn't accept it."

He moved the mouse and clicked on the last CG.

I once thought my world had come to an end, and I sat languishing in the abyss, awaiting my own demise. Until a ray of light pierced the darkness and descended upon me. The journey is still long, and time is still long. I believe that light will continue to illuminate my path, until the very end of the world.

Deep in the darkness, there was no sound, no smell, and no tactile sensation of footsteps on the ground.

They kept falling, and in the endless darkness, even the last glimmer of hope was completely swallowed up.

His body crumbled into pieces, and his will gradually dissipated.

Silence fell, and the world came to an end.

until--

A beam of light pierced the darkness and shone on Zhang Ying. He reached out his hand toward the light, but when he looked directly at it, the light stung his eyes, and he closed them in pain.

When he opened his eyes again, he had become her.

-

After I jumped from the rooftop, endless resentment and hatred enveloped me. I constantly craved revenge, wanting to make others experience my pain. I became a ghost wandering in this world.

I am angry at why I have suffered such a life, angry at why I am powerless to resist, and angry at why I cannot pursue freedom.

I hate my mother for repeatedly making me pursue the illusory sky, I hate my father for treating me like a commodity that he can dispose of at will, I hate my teachers and classmates, and I hate even more that he can't change anything about me.

I sang, danced, and wandered around the corners of the school.

The students and teachers who saw me were horrified by my face and afraid of my figure.

I didn't want to hurt them, I just wanted them to know my pain.

But in the end, I became a fearsome tale. Resentment and hatred grew deeper with the spread of these tales, and my existence and power grew stronger with them.

Until I was sealed in a small corner of the vocal room, unable to leave it even a step further.

I am all alone again.

I sang and sang until I grew tired of singing myself. I danced, and my resentment grew ever stronger.

The seal on my body has become weaker and weaker over time as my power has increased.

I hate everything in the world. My remaining humanity is on the verge of going out of control. I vow to kill everyone in the world once I get out!

Until a boy walked into the vocal studio...
