Security guard Zhang Wei:
“Young Master Shiyu looked a bit off when he came home today… Wait, why does it sound like he’s smashing things in there?”
Wang Xing:
“My buddy’s been acting weird lately. No street racing, no drinking, and he disappears as soon as school lets out every day. Could he be dating someone behind my back?”
Xu Qianya:
“That silver-haired priest actually spoke to me today. He even asked me to deliver a note to someone named Liu Shiyu… Isn’t that the rich kid from the class next door?”
Song Wei:
(looking at the scrawny high schooler in front of him) “Lucifer, are you serious?”
Lucifer:

(continues to be silent)
“…His healing speed is much faster than I expected.”
(looking thoughtful)
Liu Shiyu:
Opened the door and stepped in blood. Got sent flying by a monster. His arm snapped into a Z shape.
Woke up, fully healed. His parents were gone.
A priest gave him two choices.
He chose the one that would get people killed.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t afraid of dying.
He was more afraid of forgetting.
