Lord's Favorite Child
Lucian's situation wasn't one most would envy. He was a student at the academy, yes—but more importantly, he was someone with a secret to protect. His addiction, not to a drug but to a rare medicine. The headmaster of the academy had made a deal with him: complete these missions, you get your medicine in return and have your identity hidden away from the world. No one would know his past, no one would know his true purpose, and no one would get in his way. This deal had kept him safe, kept him hidden, and more than anything, it gave him the freedom to live without worrying about being vulnerable, hunted or exposed. But in exchange for this peace, Lucian had to comply with the headmaster's whims, no matter how strange or degrading the assignments might be.
But, everything changes when Lucian is tasked with investigating the source of power of a mysterious yet monstrously strong girl, Selene. She is a wall soo tough that Lucian cannot place a single crack on it. So he employs tactics that he never used.
But, in the process of finding out the secret, Lucian ends up finding the truth about himself.
