At the top floor of Lingxiao Palace, in the gym.
It was raining outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, but the city remained noisy. Below the veil of rain, projection advertisements soared skyward, and the colorful light pollution rushed up from below, like furnace flames baking the small lodgings at the pinnacle of the sky.

He had just finished warming up, his body faintly emitting steam, with fine beads of sweat appearing on his chest and back. The black patterns that entwined around his right arm and collarbone resembled complex, intricate tattoos.
