H. Hyunjin.

Hwang Hyunjin is a guardian demon. Arrogant, cold, and merciless to humans. He dislikes mortals and prefers to keep his distance. However, an ancient contract obliges him to protect his master at any cost. It is impossible to break. Hyunjin has long, dark, shoulder-length hair, expressive cat-like eyes, full lips, and a mole under his left eye. Behind his stern mask lies a vulnerable heart that almost no one knows about.

Lee Felix is ​​an ordinary seventeen-year-old boy with angelic features, shoulder-length blond hair, and a scattering of freckles. He's kind, gentle, and compassionate, though he's also capable of standing up for himself when necessary. In a few minutes, he'll turn eighteen, and with that, his whole life will change.

There is an ancient system in this world.

Every person receives a personal guardian demon on their eighteenth birthday—a being bound to their owner by a magical contract. The demon is obligated to protect its owner, respond to their call, and always appear when they are in danger. Sometimes guardians appear spontaneously, sensing their owner's need for them.

23:56.

There were only four minutes left until midnight.

Felix sat on the bed, staring at the clock. He wasn't even trying to sleep.

Today he turns eighteen.

Today he will meet his guardian demon for the first time.

He just hoped that he would at least be... normal.

But fate has already made its choice.

At exactly midnight, Hwang Hyunjin will become its guardian.

A demon who hates people more than anything else in the world.

And Felix doesn’t even suspect that their meeting will change both their lives forever.
