I'm No Butcher, I Execute Gods

[Superpowers] [One heroine] [No System] [Plot-driven] [Fast-paced] [Cthulhu] When my teacher's scalp split open, revealing layer upon layer of scales, I tightened my grip on the butcher's knife!

As corruption from the Beast Realm spreads through the city, the boundary between humans and demons collapses completely.

I'm Ji Linchuan, a monster tainted by corruption but impossible to detect.

My left hand periodically mutates into an armored beast's claw. Every time I cut it off, my strength doubles. A dragon-shaped countdown on my arm shows that in 720 hours, I'll become a demon beast for good.

To survive, I deliberately tried to assassinate my corrupted homeroom teacher and make her transform in front of everyone. I only wanted to draw the Superpowers Bureau's attention and get recruited in exchange for genetic medicine to suppress my mutations.

But I never expected this:

- The teacher whose heart I stabbed transformed into a ninth-rank Domain God before everyone's eyes. The sound of scales tearing through her skin still echoes through the classroom.

I'm both a cleaner and prey.

The moment my butcher's knife cleaved through the head of a tenth-rank Blood Mastiff, the Superpowers Bureau finally realized that this boy who could see through corruption was the most dangerous ticking time bomb of all.

The countdown ticks on as scales devour the skin on my body.

And they don't know this:

I'm no longer human. I just haven't yet learned how to be a proper demon beast.
