He sacrificed his half soul and borrowed a blasphemous eye from the abyss, and everything he saw was stripped of its disguise.
Lorraine Shadowsong, the only orphan of the once glorious "Starlight" family, was burdened with the stigma of treason and a mountain of blood debt, struggling to survive in the darkest corner of the empire. When the last shelter was burned down and the hunter's blade was close to his throat, he was desperate and stepped into the dusty "Comb of Lies" deep in the family's forbidden area.
"Mephistopheles!" Using blood as ink and despair as a guide, Lorraine knocked on the door of the abyss. What responded to him was the devil's whisper with a pleasant echo: "Half the soul belongs to me, and I will give you the 'eyes of truth' - see through lies, omens, energy tracks, and even... Cracks in the rules of the world. But remember, wherever you look, the abyss is also staring at you."
The contract was branded, and the left eye turned into an abyss whirlpool of eternal silence. The next day, the imperial envoy brought "salvation": he would join the "Burial Fire" vanguard army as a guilty person, and use his flesh and blood to pave the way to the northern expedition for the empire. However, when Roland raised his eyes, a scarlet brand woven from shadows and curses suddenly hung above the envoy's head: "Within three days, "Spell Weaver" Solena will harvest this soul."
The devil's eyes turned quietly. Is this a curse, or a sharp blade that tears through the web of fate? In the dark era of conflict between empires, games between gods, and invasions from other worlds, how will Roland use his eyes that can see through the illusions of all things to make moves in the fatal chess game, steal power from the fingertips of gods and demons, and finally... Launch a shocking "Judgment of the Strange Eyes" against the abyss and those on the throne who are toying with all living beings?
Half of his soul sank, his eyes peered into the sky. This is a fatal gamble with the world at stake.
