Zhan Yi's parents are both dead, and he has no one to rely on. In a world overrun by aberrant creatures, he has excellent abilities, but after offending the wrong person, he lives in constant danger.
Recently, the stagnant waters of his life have inexplicably begun to ripple.
People who used to treat him coldly, even those he'd never interacted with, have suddenly begun going out of their way to approach and help him, trying to win his trust, or even his affection.
The arrogant, sharp-tongued young heir of a powerful family specifically requests him as his personal butler, insisting they eat and live together and offering him extraordinarily generous compensation.
A gloomy, world-weary test subject who escaped from an illegal laboratory refuses to leave his home, invites him to help destroy this decaying world, and often gazes at him in secret with the fervent eyes of a devoted believer.
The undisputed strongest member of the Pollution Control Bureau takes him on as a disciple and keeps him close to teach him. The domineering, inscrutable man grips the back of his neck and teaches him gently, but holds him as if he might take his life the very next second.
Zhan Yi lets them approach, and soon understands the truth.
It turns out they have all awakened memories of the future.
In those memories, he becomes powerful enough to destroy human civilization, and brings about the end of the world in a mutual-destruction attack.
Zhan Yi: Shocking!
Sure, I secretly have a bunch of aberrant underlings. Sure, I'm into tentacle play and captivity play, and I'm especially fascinated by the pained, stoic expressions of powerful people forced to submit. But I'm really not a villain!
Some of them want to use him, while others want to kill him.
Zhan Yi decides to strike first.

To everyone with memories of the future, Zhan Yi looks like a weak, innocent little victim. They can't connect him with the powerful man who will one day destroy the world.
Just as they start to suspect that their memories of the future are nothing but a false dream, Zhan Yi knocks them down one by one.
They wake up in cages in an abandoned factory and stare in disbelief at the man beyond the bars, no longer pretending to be someone else.
Zhan Yi looks down at them. As if something has just occurred to him, he claps his hands:
"Young master, when we first met, you said you were looking for a good dog and told me to follow you. You said that even a dog of yours would get the very best treatment."
Zhan Yi smiles.
"Well, now you're all my dogs. From now on, you'll do as I say. And I'll treat you pretty well, too."
Zhan Yi has SSS-level ability potential. His power is called "Death's Summons."
Every aberrant creature he kills comes back to life, ready to answer his call and become his personal puppet.
And he uses the parasitic nature of aberrant creatures to gain further control over humans who pose a threat to him.
Everyone finally understands: his pitiful persona, as someone isolated by everyone, was just a cover for his abilities.
Zhan Yi isn't an aloof, frail person, either. On the contrary, his need for control and desire for revenge are both downright twisted.

Zhan Yi gazes in rapture at the tortured, unwilling expressions of the powerful people in the cages, and asks his sickly childhood friend:
"Do you think I'll really destroy the world someday? Why would I do something that doesn't benefit me?"
But his childhood friend is focused on something else. He grabs Zhan Yi's hand as it reaches into the cage to tease the prisoners, and guides it to his own throat.
With barely concealed anticipation, he says, "If you like, I can do that too. A cage, a collar, anything you want."
1. One-on-one romance, happy ending. A seemingly pitiful but secretly man-eating-flower bottom x a sickly childhood-friend top with extraordinary mental powers.
2. The bottom does not destroy the world.
