[Nonhuman love interest + tentacles + raising him + size difference + scheming]
Wen Jingyu insists on leaving home and transferring schools to Ningzhou, where her grandmother lives.
At first, her father, Wen Chengyan, furiously tries to stop her, but eventually gives in.
Ningzhou was once an ancient sea, now transformed into a range of mountains. Its mountain folk have worshipped the sacred mountain for generations.
While skiing one winter, Wen Jingyu finds a young Vilos in the snowy mountains. She tells him that if he wants to leave, she will set him free, but the little boy clings to her desperately.
But then disaster strikes. Wen Chengyan forces his way into quarantined Ningzhou by hijacking an aircraft, and a squad of camouflage-clad personnel forcibly takes Wen Jingyu away.
The two part in haste and never hear from each other again.
Years of separation turn longing into hatred.
The once skinny, docile child who depended on her and followed her everywhere has changed completely.
When they reunite, Vilos is powerful and cold, with a violent, sinister nature. He has already killed countless people and become a devil.
The gentle outsider she raised with her own hands has, in the end, become a scourge upon the world.
