Chapter 37: THE EVENT
I was sleeping peacefully, wrapped in warmth and comfort. The world outside was quiet, and everything felt calm. It must have been around 6 a.m. when I suddenly felt someone shaking me awake.

Still half-asleep, I blinked and looked up to see Meiyun and Ruxue leaning over me. Their faces were pale, and I could see fear in their eyes.
"Chen... look!" Ruxue’s voice trembled as she pointed toward the window.
I sat up quickly and turned to look outside. What I saw made my blood run cold.
The sky was pitch black.
Not just dark—but completely black, like the night had returned without warning. It was unnatural. The sun should have been rising, but there was no light. The air felt heavy, as if something terrible had awakened.
Just as I was trying to understand what was going on, a system message appeared in front of me, glowing faintly in the dark.
[Warning! THE EVENT has started early due to interference from an unknown entity.][ERROR! ERROR! Host’s power level is too low to respond.]
My eyes widened in shock. The Event?This couldn’t be happening. It wasn’t supposed to start yet. The system had told me there was time—time to grow stronger, to prepare.
