[High Martial] [Decisive and Ruthless] [Gray Mist Descends] [Plot-Driven] [Not Mindless Wish Fulfillment] [Romance] [No System]
I received a text from an unknown number:
“Three in the afternoon, 148 Linjiang Road. I'll tell you the secret of the mark on your forehead.”
The sender was the girl in the red dress who had been missing for a month.
That place had just been completely sealed off by the secret government agency known as the Watchkeepers. A Calamity-class anomaly had appeared there.
To put an end to eight years of mental torment, I went.
What awaited me wasn't an answer, but hell.
My classmates were slaughtered, monsters ran rampant, and an old man burning through his life turned to dry bones before my eyes.
On the brink of death, the mark between my brows opened fully for the first time.
Countless blood-red threads surged out, sucking that arrogant monster dry until it was nothing but an empty shell.
The Watchkeepers' captain wrote in his report:
“Awakened: Lu Wangchuan. Divine Mark level: unknown. Ability: possibly a top-tier rule-based power, Spatial Devouring.”
“Recommendation: keep him under close observation, or... turn him into an anomaly and eliminate him.”
I knew my peaceful life was over.
But more terrifying than the anomalies was the hint of... pleasure that rose in my heart as I devoured them.
