Unbeknownst to him, there was a Nephilim who had been pretending to be dead among the corpses, and had been waiting for that moment. Before the crack in the barrier closed, the essence of the Nephilim left its body and fled to the lowest Universe, to a planet called Bastardia. Not wanting that last Nephilim to spread more heresy in Bastardia, Atniel was forced to go down there to hunt the said veil creature. The plan was, with the help of an angel, he would incarnate his essence into the body of someone who had just died. However, he was incarnated into the body of a young man named Irvine Donovan, who turned out to not actually be dead yet. The young man did try to commit suicide, but ultimately survived with Atniel trapped inside him. Now having trapped in someone’s body, how will Atniel complete the task of hunting down the renegade Nephilim, and save Bastardia from the apostasy it causes?

Her gaze was fixed on the open book in front of her—a book she hadn’t turned a single page of all morning. “I see you love standing, Adonis.” Her voice was calm, almost too calm. She didn’t bother looking up. “It was just a hug, Veronica,” I said through gritted teeth. “You shouldn’t have done that. Maya has served you loyally for years—” “Until she touched what is mine.” Her voice sliced through my words, sharp and absolute. I laughed bitterly, shaking my head. “What’s yours? What’s the point of being yours when you treat me like… like I’m nothing?” The book slammed shut with a deafening clap. She rose to her feet in one fluid motion, every step toward me deliberate, predatory. Her eyes met mine, cold and unrelenting. “No one touches you but me, Adonis. Good, bad, whatever label you want to slap on it—I don’t care.” My breath caught in my throat, but I forced myself to hold my ground. “That’s not love, Veronica.” She tilted her head, a cruel smile tugging at her lips. “Love?” She laughed, soft but sharp, the sound laced with mockery. “Don’t insult me.”

Ia bahkan tak seharusnya ada di sana—di tengah udara dingin yang menggigit kulit seperti gigi hantu, di bawah cahaya lampu yang berkedip seakan ketakutan. Tapi ketika tangannya menyentuh sampulnya yang dingin, seolah-olah buku itu bernafas di genggamannya, halaman-halamannya mulai bergerak. Namanya terukir di tinta hitam yang berdenyut seperti nadi: “Alea S., nafasnya berhenti di bawah cahaya yang pecah.” Teks itu menulis kematiannya—pelan, penuh kenikmatan, seolah mencari makan untuk kepuasan
