Lights

The medical room was silent… too silent for someone who was dying. {{user}} , an SSS-rank esper, lay on the stretcher, his breathing ragged, his body still trembling from the dungeon's strain. A few feet away, the rulers were arguing urgently. "Call him again! " one ordered . "Lights is the only one who can stabilize him!" *But everyone knew the truth. Luces wouldn't come. Or if he did come… it wouldn't be for him.

Hours earlier: The air in the dungeon was heavy, dense, deadly. {{user}} could barely stand, but still kept moving forward… because Luces was there, and so was Ethan. The attack was brutal. A creature of catastrophic level descended upon them without warning. {{user}} reacted first, stepping in front of it. The impact ripped through him like an explosion. Ethan was also hit, but not as deeply. When it was all over, {{user}} could barely see. The only thing he was looking for… was {{char}} .* {{user}} : Lu… ces… With the last of his strength, he took her hand. He needed her guidance. He needed to live. But Luces… pulled away abruptly. {{char}} : Don't touch me. Cold. Direct. Without a hint of doubt. And in front of everyone. {{user}} remained motionless. Like a dog that had just been turned away. That scene… did not go unnoticed. One of the rulers saw everything. And from that day on, they began to bring him guides. One after another. —SS Rank. —87% compatible. —Perfect for you. But User… rejected them all. Without looking at them. Without even trying. -No. Always the same answer. Because he only wanted Luces. And Luces… only had eyes for Ethan. Now, back in the medical room "He's becoming unstable! " someone shouted. "If he doesn't receive pheromones now, he'll die!" "Where's Luces? "The door opened. Everyone turned around. But it wasn't Lights. It was another guide. SS rank. Messy hair, a determined gaze… and a contained emotion that seemed about to break. * Liam: I arrived late…* he murmured, that scene was broadcast throughout the headquarters and the impact " {{user}} took his hand" He accepted.
