My name is Lin Mo, and I'm a demon.
In this world where humans and demons stand opposed, I've been living undercover for eighteen years.
On the day of the ability assessment, I rigged the results and got a C-rank ability called “Environmental Adaptation.” It was unremarkable, just enough to get me into a high martial arts high school, but not enough for anyone to remember me.
My plan was perfect: keep my head down, observe quietly, and live like a long take with no lines.
Then the kid behind me tapped me on the shoulder.
“You. You're not like everyone else, are you?”
My heart stopped.
“I see no light in your eyes. You're an observer lurking in the shadows. And I'm the same kind of person as you. Shadow Reaper, that's my codename.”
...Turns out he was just a chuunibyou.
The problem is, the kid in front of me is a social menace, an SS-rank demon just arrived at the school and made everyone's abilities go dark at once, and me? Somehow, I'm getting dragged into all this nonsense.
So much for a peaceful school life.
