——When the evil you worship and the good you fear both require you to betray yourself.
---
Xavier Winster, an information dealer who can use telepathy to spy on the afterimages of the past, made a life-changing decision in the bloody ruins of Youxin Auction:
He took the initiative and walked towards the Phantom Troupe.
With his unique "mirror retrospection" ability, Xavier used intelligence as a proxy and became the thirteenth leg of the spider. His mission is: to track down and destroy the chain killer and his companions - the young man named Xiaojie Fulisi and the hunters around him.
From the card fight on Greed Island to the survival hell of NGL Chimera Ants; from the undercurrent of the Black Whale succession battle to the unknown frontier of the Dark Continent. Xavier spins a web of lies and pave the way with betrayal, walking a tightrope between the brutal aesthetics of the brigade and the pure faith of the protagonist group.
He secretly changed Gon's telekinesis conditions, alienated the tacit understanding between Gon and Killua, and gave Chrollo a detailed report of every hunt. He thought he was being loyal until he discovered:
He began to look forward to Gon's smile when he broke through the game, began to fear Killua's eyes that could see through lies, and began to envy Kurapika's way of life other than revenge.
The Spiders of the Brigade never accept faded tattoos.
When the fire of revenge of the "Chain Killer" and the shadow of the truth of the "Dark Continent" approach at the same time, Sevier must answer:
Is he a claw of the spider, a traitor to the hunter, or is he the one who found a third way between the two madnesses - himself?
Is there a female protagonist?
