Growing up on the streets of New Pandora after the usurption of Earth, John never expected anything good from life. He survived just to survive, no purpose in mind and no hope. However, even he did not anticipate Awakening and becoming a successor of the Gray Family - an elite family at the peak of the world wielding unimaginable power and wealth. He was born without a Gift and a curse that painted his hair black and filled his eyes with a bleak darkness. Watch as he reaches for the apex of existence and uncovers the hidden plot behind his curse. "In this sixth life, I will have it all!"
'Of course,'
*SHOOOOOF!*
Something pierced through the wall and moved like a meteor towards me.
*THUD!*
I caught it with a swift move.
"Huh? I don't remember these."
A pair of thorned brassknuckles, black with crimson thorns.
I felt a familliar energy inside them.
"Zara?!"
A memory flowed into my mind through the brassknuckles.
"Of all things to fight, a demonic dragon? *Sigh*."
"What are those?" Angel asked.
"Midnight City's signature:wasted talent." I got up to leave.
'I'll name them [Zara's Revenge]'
"You're leaving already? What if there's another explosion? Or i'm cold?" Angel grabbed my arm.
I put my palm on cheek.
"String that bind, words that summon, gather." A rune appeared on her forehead for a split second.
"When you call my name, i'll be there."
