Erin Ming broke the one rule he had to follow. It wasn't supposed to kill him, just that a sense of curiosity pulled him into a moment of recklessness. He crossed the line into the forbidden wild forest and died there. Cursing the cruelty of sweet memories of his life before death, he eventually drifted off into a peaceful world of darkness, but one where he was utterly alone. When encountered with a sharp voice demanding to know his wish, Erin asked to live once more, and beautiful light and life had returned to him.
However death's clutches were far too powerful for Erin to evade alone. Faced with an unstable body, a drifting mind that could pull him back to death at any moment, and an unwavering determination to return to his normal life as a fifteen year old boy in Huang Yao, Erin agreed to pay any price for life to the mysterious wish-granting girl. But he'll soon discover the price of life may be too much for him to handle, perhaps even more so than death.
