Suspicion

Eeshoo Nephilim

Due to his well-known reputation as a prodigy, the best of the best from the younger generation of the famed Grade 5 faction of Nephilim, it was such shocking news that the young Nephilim didn't even make it to the semifinals of the Magus Tournament.

"There will be an attempt on your life during the tournament, you should reconsider your decision to participate."

Those were the words he had heard from his wife-to-be Jinkan before his fight, but he ignored them.

After all the efforts and sacrifices he had made to receive the best facilities and training from the faction, Eeshoo couldn't just let go of this tournament without accomplishing what he had planned and prepared for. He was unwilling to let that acolyte from the lower realm win.

Yet despite his best efforts, he ended up losing.
