The Attendant in the Horror Game Is Acting Suspicious

Jade finds himself possessed by the body of an attendant doomed to die within a week inside a horror game.

Yet all the system grants him are utterly useless, beggarly skills.
Worse, the final boss — the angel-faced Ian Linwood — is the very one who slaughters every attendant that enters the mansion.

Determined to survive no matter what, Jade uses his hard-earned survival instincts to run the abandoned mansion’s household day by day.
Over time, he earns Ian’s trust and recognition, becoming a true attendant in the boy’s eyes.

“Jade, can’t we sleep together?”
“What kind of noble sleeps with his attendant? Absolutely not.”
“But I want to sleep beside you forever. For all my life, together.”

Jade’s plan to lead a peaceful healing life seems to be veering slightly off track.

“A sudden disappearance — that much, I could forgive, Jade.”

Eleven years later, Ian was still beautiful. Still smiled like an angel.

“After all, that was your last chance to abandon me.”

But the way he whispered those words, with that faint, bitter smile — felt utterly foreign.
Gone was the sharp-tongued boy from years past; in his place stood a man who could even fake tears so convincingly it hurt to watch.
He would grow violent one moment, only to calmly lift Jade’s ankle the next — pressing a kiss upon it as though sealing a vow.

“You’re not going anywhere. I promise.”
“Then open your mouth, at least. Perhaps then, I might believe you.”

Seme: Ian Linwood (Age 12 → 23)

The final boss in the horror game — a child killer who murdered every attendant that came to the mansion.
But in truth, Ian was merely a boy abandoned by his uncle and left to rot within the mansion, forced to defend himself against those who sought his death.

Like the rest, he first believes Jade has come to kill him. Yet as Jade worries for him and cares for him, Ian slowly begins to soften.
To stay by Jade’s side, he is willing to do anything — concealing his feral instincts and consuming desire behind a mask of fragility. If it means possessing Jade, even pitiful tears are a weapon he will not hesitate to use.

Uke: Jade (Age 18 → 29)

A master housekeeper who suddenly finds himself trapped inside a horror game.
A suspiciously skilled attendant who can forage for food in snowfields and even hunt monsters.
Among the mansion’s residents — demons and beasts alike — he’s the most beloved of all.

Cool-headed to the point of seeming indifferent, Jade will do anything if it means feeding or nurturing the young master.
At first, he simply wished to avoid dying at Ian’s hands, but gradually, Ian reminds him of his own younger self — stirring an unexpected sympathy.
Years later, when they meet again, he finds himself practically confined by Ian… though oddly enough, the confinement feels rather comfortable.
