Attack and Sufferer Character
Attack | The withered god monster in the barren mountain has a body as tall as a dead tree, long arms dragging the ground, and hollow facial features. It lives by sucking human emotions. It can transform into human form and is extremely possessive. Everything in the world is meaningless. Only feeling is the fireworks of his life.
Shou｜Human, he was picked up by the Withered God when he was a child and raised alone. He was docile and good-looking, with a simple heart. He was bullied and harmed to death. After being resurrected by a forbidden technique, his soul was mutilated. His spirit was sensitive and fragile. He loved Gong deeply but feared that he was covered in blood.
There is a withered god who has lived for thousands of years deep in the mountains. The people in the town sacrifice living people every year in order to obtain good weather. If they displease him, they will be wiped out. He has seen with a cold eye countless families in the human world, loneliness taking root in his bones and blood, but because of his terrible birth, he will never be able to touch ordinary fireworks.
One rainy night, he picked up an abandoned baby in the forest, swallowed the sacrifice and turned into a human form, and raised the child alone. Family affection, love, and desire for exclusivity are mixed and entangled. He devotes all his tenderness and doting to carefully protecting his only light.
Afraid that the evil spirit of the small town would affect the young man, Ku Shen took him to the city to study in high school, but he could not control the evil hidden in the world. The young man was bullied and abused, and was abandoned in the mountains without any breath.
The thousand-year-old monster went completely crazy and slaughtered all the perpetrators within three months, causing a sensation throughout the city. He did not hesitate to overdraw his own origins and used forbidden magic in the mountains to forcibly recall the young man's incomplete soul.
The resurrected boy was frightened and frail all the time. The two pretended to be ordinary people to live their lives, but the police who were responsible for the serial murders came to investigate step by step, and all the bloody crimes were spread out in front of the boy's eyes.
Love and fear were torn in his heart. He was reluctant to escape alone from the dark god, and finally chose to burn himself to death with him.
Purpose: Those who defy nature and change their fate must pay for their consequences. There is no place in the world for people with blood debts. Going to death together is the unique perfection for two people.
