Three hundred years after the apocalypse, humanity has built a new home among the ruins.
Monster Academy is Earth's first school for people with supernatural abilities.
#
On her first day at the academy, her senior guide warned Lin Qi:
"You'd better be careful... The students at this academy are either monsters, lunatics, or..."
The girl dashed forward, snapped the neck of a mutant beast by the roadside with one hand, and splattered her white dress with blood.
Then she looked back, her eyes clear and her smile innocent. "Huh? What were you saying?"
The senior swallowed the rest of his sentence.
[People like us, the ordinary ability users who stick together for warmth, sob...]
.
Later, Lin Qi fell in love.
When she first met her lover, he stood beneath a cherry tree, with pale violet eyes and golden hair. Countless rays of sunlight shone down on him, as if a god had descended to earth.
He looked holy, gentle, and harmless.
Once they got to know each other, Lin Qi's little plush toys were hand-sewn by the young man, her bento boxes were made by him, and every few days he would bring her freshly baked cookies.
Lin Qi: Sob, my boyfriend is gentle, harmless, and a real homebody.
I'll handle all the fighting and killing!
.
Until the day the academy was breached by a horde of mutant beasts.
Before losing consciousness from her injuries, Lin Qi still remembered to send her "beautiful but frail" boyfriend to safety in a shelter.
Then she woke up...
The sky was pitch-black, smoke drifted across the ruins, and a hundred-meter-tall ferocious beast shielded her with its body, holding back the entire beast horde all by itself.
In the darkness, it spread magnificent pale golden wings. Every flap sent raging spheres of energy flying, lighting up half the sky and obliterating every mutant beast in their path.
Lin Qi looked up and met the beast's strange yet familiar pale violet eyes.
Lin Qi: Mind blown.
.
Lin Qi: "I have a bold but reasonable theory... That monster that saved me that day..."
The young man offered her a freshly baked cookie. "Hmm?"
Lin Qi: "It must have been a kind mutant beast!"
The young man smiled.
Beautiful and bloodthirsty little goddess VS gentle, mysterious, secretly sinister man
