Wie groß muss der Reichtum einer Familie sein, die seit fünftausend Jahren vererbt wird? Manchmal weiß man erst dann, wie reich die eigene Familie wirklich ist, wenn man seine Eltern ein wenig unter Druck setzt! Erst nachdem er das fünftausendjährige Vermögen seiner Familie geerbt hatte, erkannte Zhang Menglong, dass die Freude der Reichen so einfach ist. Der Bankpräsident: "Herr Zhang, bitte, ich bitte Sie, Ihr Geld bei unserer Bank anzulegen, und Sie können den Zinssatz bestimmen!" Huaxias oberster Reicher der zweiten Generation: "Gehört Ihrer Familie die ganze Welt oder was?" Der reichste Mensch der Welt: "Ich fühle mich wie ein armer Mann!" Europäisches Königshaus: "Herr Zhang, fehlt Ihnen eine Freundin? Wenn ja, würde es Ihnen etwas ausmachen, eine zu finden? Wenn nicht, hätten Sie dann noch eine? Was halten Sie von der Prinzessin unseres Landes?" Später fand Zhang Menglong heraus, dass das College, das seine Eltern ihm hinterlassen hatten, das Beeindruckendste war. Dekan zu sein, war sogar noch schöner, als der reichste Mensch der Welt zu sein!

In a world where beauty is a deadly illusion, humanity’s greatest predators walk among them—Shikiban, mesmerizing beings that lure victims with their ethereal charm before devouring their souls with a single whisper. Their existence is hidden from the world, but a secret organization, the Kageshiki, has sworn to hunt them down. Reika Kagetsu never asked for this war. One night—betrayal, blood, and darkness—then she wakes up in an unfamiliar place: Tenshiko Academy, an elite training ground for Kageshiki warriors. Branded as a trainee, she must endure brutal trials, deadly combat, and a world where only the strong survive. But something is wrong. The shadows whisper her name. The monsters don’t just fear her—they know her. And standing among the elite is Souta, the man she once trusted, watching her with a smirk—as if he planned her fate from the very beginning. Within Tenshiko Academy, there are only two choices: hunt or be hunted. Each trainee must slay Shikiban, absorb their power, and become living weapons. But as Reika carves her way through the ranks, a question lingers—what truly separates a Kageshiki from the monsters they kill? When the truth reveals itself, she must decide. Is she the hunter? Or has she been prey all along? A tale of vengeance, survival, and power—in this blood-soaked world, strength is everything. Mercy is death. And the whispers are calling her name.
