   Reader note

   I've been following this book lately. It's a rare find with its voice manipulation theme—it's so incredibly original! The two main characters communicate across time and space through sound perception, a sophisticated and unique concept. Initially, they fight independently, but later they team up with the "Avengers" and a psychic cat to break the deadlock and fight the villains. What impressed me most was how well-developed all the characters are. The protagonists are intelligent and brave, not superficial, and the villains aren't just tools; they have complete backstories and motivations. The plot is thrilling yet filled with heartwarming details, the plot twists are well-paced and amazing, and the final battle where they converge across time and space is incredibly tense. It's not clichéd or melodramatic; it gets more and more addictive the more you read. The author, @, has amazing writing skills; this is a rare gem with both a strong plot and solid logic!
