[You hit me? Your bones will break first.]
Chen Mo mopped floors at an underground fight club.
Then one day, the club owner stepped on his hand and mocked his missing parents. His emotional meter crossed the threshold.
The lights exploded. A fighter's arm twisted and snapped. The whole place fell silent.
When agents from the Cleanup Bureau arrived, no one dared touch him. But from their trembling walkie-talkies, Chen Mo heard the words:
“Level 0... A Level 0 emotional source... Don't provoke him...”
Chen Mo suddenly realized: the whole world was afraid of him.
Well, if you're all afraid of me, it can't be too much to collect a little protection money, right?
From then on, the black market paid him for information, the Cleanup Bureau paid him hush money, and every Anchor Hunter who came after him died.
But no one told him that every time he used that power, the ash-colored markings on his wrist spread a little farther.
And at the end of those markings, the previous Calamity was waking inside him.
