That night, the black mark spread across his chest.
It formed strange symbols.
Silver Eyes examined it.
"It's ancient."
"What does it mean?"
She hesitated.
"It means you're not the first."
Kaito stiffened.
"There were others?"
"Yes."
"Where are they?"
She looked at the red sky.
"Dead."
A scream echoed from the distance.
The Holy Order was burning another district.
Kaito clenched his fists.
"I won't hide anymore."
Inside him, the shadow laughed.
"Good."
