On the surveillance footage, a man with white wings and antlers was chained up.
The man in white adjusted the camera. A pale-faced man came into view, smiling at a bird with a broken wing in a way no human should.
Suddenly, he whipped his head toward the camera.
Blood-red nails, scarlet eyes, blood running from his lips: he stared through the lens with a feral expression.
Kate Qi Shiyuan broke into a cold sweat, but calmly wrote in the file:
Species: Mutated aberrant. Identity: Draven Feng Xuangu. Age: Unknown.
Bloodthirsty. Emotionally unstable. Mental-power surges last ten minutes.
The instant he put pen to paper, the room’s orange-red light began to writhe like a living thing.
He suddenly understood something: “That bird with the broken wing was never the only prisoner in the cage.”
What was worse, Draven Feng Xuangu seemed to have known all along that someone was watching him.
As he turned away, the inhuman thing inside smiled faintly.
“When a god pities all living things, it is destined to be dragged into the mud by them.”
--
He thought he was an Observer, recording aberrant beings with a cool head and a steady hand, guided only by evidence and logic.
Until one day, he met that pair of scarlet eyes through the glass.
Draven Feng Xuangu smiled at him.
At that moment, Kate Qi Shiyuan’s fountain pen drew a line across the page that should not have been there.
He knew better than anyone that the “Observer” field in the file no longer held a name. It held a countdown that had long since crossed the line.
“You’re recording me.” A strange voice seeped through the wall, low and hoarse, carrying a chilling laugh. “Do you know I’m watching you too?”
The night he defected: In file D-1024, only a dried drop of blood remained where the Observer’s signature should have been.
“You once broke my wings with your own hands, so this time, ”
“I’ll be the cage that keeps you locked up.”
