No matter how rational and clear-headed he was during the day, at night, in his dreams… He once thought he could escape that damp and burning place of memories, but the wheel of fate always seemed to love playing tricks.

    This is a clean, two-male-lead novel 😘 I've finished most of it, so let me briefly talk about it. It's a plot-driven novel, and the adventure and revenge storyline is very well written. One is reborn with a deep-seated hatred, and the other is an honest young hunter; they meet unexpectedly and embark on a journey together. It's not love at first sight, but rather their hearts only flutter after they've faced life and death together. The plot can be heart-wrenching, but the interactions between the two main characters are very sweet, they are equals, and the reading experience is quite enjoyable.
