A hot-tempered Sentinel bottom x a caring, fatherly Guide top. The top spoils the bottom.
[Highly gifted but sickly "newbie" Sentinel bottom x composed, reliable but darkening and possessive Guide top]
Cheng Dongzhuo still remembers the piercing pain and overwhelming smell of blood when his mental landscape collapsed as he died alongside a beast.
No Sentinel can withstand sensory overload.
Neither could he.
But when he opens his eyes again, how has he become a rookie at a training camp?!
And his instructor is his sworn enemy.
Sheng Yuan!
Cheng Dongzhuo is speechless. He wants to run, but it's too late.
Everyone is waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Everyone wants to see whether this highly gifted candidate, whose physical fitness is so awful, will be eliminated in disgrace or stay by pulling strings.
Cheng Dongzhuo raises an eyebrow and smiles. "Heh. I'll show you what real ability looks like."

After Cheng Dongzhuo dies, everyone realizes that Sheng Yuan seems to have become a different person.
He's truly become like an abyss: dark, cold, and completely devoid of light.
Sheng Yuan wakes from another nightmare. Cheng Dongzhuo's spirited smile before a mission and his blood-soaked, lifeless body in a crater flash through his dreams again and again.
Each image stabs at his heart.
But that heart, still as stagnant water, begins beating again after this candidate appears.
The candidate officially joins the unit. He completes his mission cleanly and decisively, and his final move, sheathing his knife in midair, earns a round of applause.
But Sheng Yuan knows that Cheng Dongzhuo was the only person he'd ever shared that move with.
Sheng Yuan's throat tightens. His burning gaze scans every detail of the man's body like a scanner, finally settling on the small mole beneath his eye, identical to Cheng Dongzhuo's.
It's him.

Explosive news!
Rumor has it that the notoriously strict Instructor Sheng has sent a bonding request to the Black Tower Council, and the person he wants to bond with is none other than the new Sentinel, Cheng Dongzhuo!
Everyone is desperate to know if it's true, but the two people involved refuse to comment.
A few days later, an anonymous photo sets the forum ablaze.
Instructor Sheng has Cheng Dongzhuo pinned against a wall, kissing him passionately.
Cheng Dongzhuo, the person in question, looks helplessly at the IP address after tracing it.
"Sheng Yuan, get over here! Who told you to post that photo online?!"
