This is the story of how upon reaching my twentieth birthday, I was sent back to the age of ten, and lived to be twenty once more. <<less

Born to a house where women were only seen as tools to birth children, I was already in my twenties. I was standing on the crossroads of life.... more>>

At my fingertips were close to fifty photos of different men. They were the marriage partner candidates my father had prepared.

Those who took the initiative and volunteered because they wanted his company, and those that were recommended to strengthen our ties with other companies. There were various reasons, but I was to marry one, and build up a child.

That was my reason for existence in this house.

I don’t think I can love another.

I wonder how everyone believes in something so shapeless as love. It was only a marvel to me.

That I couldn’t do something any standard person could must be because I was a person who was never properly loved.

I put a break on the countless unanswered questions I held since my birth, and stared down at the photos around me.

That I chose him was truly a coincidence. <<less

Jung Sejin married Kwon Yido, a dominant Alpha, in order to fix his crumbling family situation.... more>>

Even though he was known for being cold, their first meeting wasn’t that bad.

“I am Kwon Yido. You are…Jung Sejin?”

Kwon Yido was courteous, respectful and had meticulous manners. The moment he thought that the marriage, which he assumed would be the worst, wasn’t all that bad…Sejin felt a strange sense of incongruity in him.

He said, “Since it didn’t seem like you had breakfast, I have prepared your favourite dish.”

How does this person know my taste buds?

From food to clothes size. Kwon Yido knew things that even Se-jin didn’t know. Even his sudden heat cycles were dealt with perfectly…

“Sejin-ah.”

“…”

“Don’t be impulsive.”

‘He’ Kwon Yido was strange.

He was affectionate and kind to him as if Jung Sejin was his lover. <<less

Immortal arts, magic weapons, magical powers, and the boundless spiritual qi between heaven and earth vanished into obscurity overnight, and all exorcists turned to mere mortals.... more>>

Three hundred years later, the Five Hus traversed the pass, it was a prelude to an era of great turmoil in China. They heralded the end of the world, where thousands of drought fiends stalked the night —— the collapse of the Divine Land is imminent.

Fortunately, within this long, dark night where silence had fallen on all magic, a lone star still glistened brightly on the horizon.

The Heart Lamp appeared, illuminating the vast expanse around it. A sixteen-year-old young man, who will end his life on his twentieth birthday, embarked on a journey to reclaim the spiritual qi of heaven and earth that had been sealed away —— only four years remain.

The road ahead was filled with countless thistles and thorns, and it seemed improbable for him to succeed.

Chen Xing: "The important thing is that I’m the last exorcist in this world, yet the only magic I am capable of is emitting light. What can I do?”

Wait patiently then. When the Dinghai Pearl reappears on earth, the uncertain trajectory of everyone’s fates will be completely disrupted before converging once more.

Chen Xing: “Could I be partnered with a more normal Protector Martial God?”

Chen Xing: “He is good at fighting, but when he loses it he’ll hit even me……”

There’s nothing that can be done about that, you can only blame yourself for losing yourself to lust. <<less

I thought my life might improve when I was later transferred to the South Korean Esper Center, commonly known as the 'K Esper Center.' But even there, I wasn't treated as a human. I was nothing more than a tr*sh can, collecting all the negativity. My human dignity crumbled. Both physically and emotionally, I was a receptacle for their waste.

As I began to forget who I was, my name, age, and even whether I was human, I made a choice for myself for the first time. I felt myself sinking as the blood drained from my body.

Just before closing my eyes for the last time, through the cracked door, I caught the horrified gazes of those watching.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back in the evaluation room where I was previously labeled a D-class guide. But this time, the result was different. I wasn’t a D-class, but an immeasurable class capable of ruling over them.

It would have been great if the esper I was supposed to guide was the person who saved me… But he too was an esper from the K Esper Center.

Although Nabin tried to hide it, deep down he hoped he might encounter him—S-class Special Esper, Telekinetic Lee Hayan.

That was the name Mr. Kim had used to refer to the one who had saved his life. With white hair and a matching name, he was as pure as untouched, freshly fallen snow. The kindness he showed Nabin was equally pristine. <<less

Gradually, he felt that attending a public security university was pretty good. At least they managed him almost like it was the military, keeping him very busy. This way, he wouldn’t have time to think about a certain someone who had suddenly vanished.

9 years ago.

Recently, there has been a very skinny youth with a large dog, always standing at the entrance of Tianyi High School. He watches the school gates like an eagle hunting for prey.

His name is Yan Shisan. When he sees the students start to leave, he yells, “Is Qin An done with class?”

He waits for Qin An to finish class, either to beat him up or ask for money. But in the end, Yan Shisan doesn’t succeed in doing either.
