"He is an immortal body reborn from the blood she fed him.
He is her only believer.
She loves him most, and is cruelest to him."

Chen Ying cannot leave the Design Institute. Since she was sixteen, she has been ordered to plant [trees] here, day after day. She is the only human capable of doing it.
The [trees] here are covered in armor and moss, their roots sunk deep into the earth. They draw on the last of the planet's energy to protect the human capital and repel the unseen enemy.
When the desert is finally filled with [trees], Chen Ying is ordered to guard the secret and go to her death.
By whose order? No one knows.
Chen Ying gives her life to Link, the first [tree] she fed with her blood for fifteen years.
-
Chen Ying does not die, but Link gains life.
Instinct makes Link want to embrace her, kiss her, and possess her every moment.
She sees him as a monster and wants to kill him.
An axe smashes his armor, but the armor grows back as skin.
A raging fire burns away his body, but the body grows back as flesh.
Swords and blades cut off his head, but the head grows back as bone.
The heart she cut out begins to beat in her hands.
She cannot kill him.
So Chen Ying hands Link over to the Design Institute, believing that this place, which has extinguished all humanity, will torture him to death. Then she leaves the capital and hides in the forest.
-
Link does not die. Link cannot die.
He has no choice but to love her.
