[A captivating beauty with two sides, aloof or flirtatious, who plays the hunter x a jealous, possessive, looks-obsessed beauty who judges people by their looks]
A thousand years ago, a rain of black opened the way for chaos to engulf the world.
The mysterious energy of chaos descended with the black rain, infecting living creatures and driving them to mutate and go berserk. After their hosts died, it quickly transferred to the nearest living beings. Humanity was helpless against it. Civilization fell into darkness, and all life suffered.
After hundreds and thousands of years, the humans who survived finally found a way to coexist with the energy of chaos. Thus, they established the last empire in a wasteland world.
The law divided the empire into seven ranks according to the strength of the chaos energy within each person.
Rank One consisted of ordinary imperial citizens. Those of Rank Two and above had the right to participate in politics. Rank Three was enough to join the empire's upper echelons. Rank Four was found almost exclusively among the Emperor's punitive forces. Aside from members of the Senate, there were only a handful of Rank Five citizens.
Across the entire empire, only two people could be found at Rank Six, and both were confidants of the Emperor.
The first was Qiren, leader of the punitive forces. Personally named by the Emperor, he wore a silver mask at all times and led a band of berserk Rank Four warriors on patrol beyond the borders, eliminating every potential threat to the empire.
The second was Aljie, imperial priest and chief executive. He wore a black robe at all times, occasionally presided over ceremonies, and was responsible for suppressing outbreaks of chaotic energy within the empire.
The two men, hailed as the empire's twin pillars, had one thing in common: they were both madly in love with the empire's only Rank Seven, the Emperor.
They say Qiren only took off his mask in the Emperor's presence.
They say Aljie only removed his robe in the Emperor's presence.
And the Emperor never hesitated to summon his two confidants. Sometimes, so as not to show favoritism, he would even have them accompany him together.
Everyone in the empire knew that the two lords had long been jealous rivals, constantly competing for favor. They had even come to blows upon meeting, while tacitly maintaining a false peace in front of the Emperor.
It went on like this until the day the Emperor mysteriously disappeared...
To prevent panic and unrest, the Senate ordered Qiren and Aljie to make it seem as if His Majesty were still there.
So Qiren had no choice but to take turns with his nemesis pretending to be the Emperor, appearing before the people of the empire with the other at his side.
The two obsessive devotees picked at each other, each convinced that the other failed to capture His Majesty's majesty. They nearly came to blows in public.
It wasn't until they were alone together in the Emperor's bedchamber, and Aljie began rocking the bed, that Qiren's eyelid twitched beneath his mask. He realized things seemed to be heading in a direction he could no longer control.
Tips:
1. They really do go from rivals in love to lovers. Both start out as tops; later, Qiren is the top and Aljie the bottom. This pairing will not be switched.
2. Beautiful top and handsome bottom. Both are strong in every sense.
3. Sex first, love later. They'll both come around, and the bottom will gradually switch from being the Emperor's obsessive devotee to being the top's obsessive devotee.
