NOTICE: I have decided to change the series title due to some reasons (mentioned at the end). The new title will be mentioned at the end of this chapter and the change will take place within a week
"…"
Motohama just texted me that the third-years were harassing the second-years, especially the ones in my class.
Recap: In the last chapter, we were shown Sona Sitiri's viewpoint. Two more devils are added to the scene; Katase and Murayama. Hyoudou Issei finally had the privacy to test his superpowers and made a move called 'MoonSlide'. Hiro Satoru is finally up after five hours and the tension between second years and third years is rising…

"… That's 37 messages in less than a minute..."
Only 15 minutes ago, I realised my phone was in silent mode. People have been messaging me since noon resulting in about 1517 unread messages. I had finished my workout and showered before remembering to check the LINE. I believe everyone found my number through the class group…
There were threats like I expected. And some messages about hiring me…(the heck)?
There were some messages like, 'Thank you! He deserved it!'
And some messages warning me that Hiro will come after me (that's so nice of them).
It seems like only a select few were brave enough to thank me. That makes sense since there is a chance that those who just thanked me or supported me by keeping their mouths shut will face Hiro's wrath when he comes for revenge.
But there were some negative comments from students who weren't from his gang. Oh… wait.
I scrolled through more messages.
…
Issei, there is a high possibility that a fight will break out between the 2nd and 3rd years tomorrow. The third-years actively harassed the 2nd years this evening, especially the students from our class, outside the school. What are you going to do?
- Motohama.
"…"
It's not like I didn't expect this. The balance of power has been broken. Of course, the old king would try to protect his throne. Now, what am I going to do? Should I fight Hiro once and for all? But…
I touched the scar on my forearm (I usually roll back my sleeves when I am alone in my room).
I scrolled through more messages.
"Hm?"
The sender of this message is-
*RING* *RING*
My phone almost leapt out of my hand.
"H-Hello?"
"Issei, it's me Rias… I just saw you online."
I didn't expect her to call.
"Hey…"
Should I say 'what's up' or 'How is it going'?
"… I didn't expect a call from you."
Right…
She laughed shortly but her voice quickly turned serious.
"I heard you and Hiro fought today," she said concerned, "Are you okay?"
"Uh… well he is the one in hospital…"
"Yeah, I know but…"
She sighed. She seems worn out.
"Issei… listen, I am sorry. I don't know what I was expecting from this pretend in the first place, but us pretending to be going out… was never intended to put you in harm's way... or maybe it was but just… not to the extent of you being physically harmed…"
I think I might have been physically thrashed even if it was not from Hiro (even though he didn't manage to). That's how popular and idolized this senpai is. But I must say this, after just a few times interacting with her, I can say that she is kind-hearted. She is the type who always returns the favour in multiple folds. Sure, she planned to use me to mitigate her trouble with Hiro's relentless pursuits and the enormous amount of confession letters she received even from people outside of our school.
But since my brother was a hotshot in the school, she must have thought that Hiro would keep his distance, like everyone did. Even I believed that was why Hiro didn't come after me these past few days.
"… There is a high chance that a fight will break out between 2nd years and 3rd years tomorrow."
"Eh? … … Okay listen, I made this mess, therefore I will solve it," she said.
"… How?"
"It would be nice if I could say I have a 100% guarantee plan but unfortunately, no. But at this point, there is nothing wrong in trying."
"Your wish, Rias."
"… Thank you for being understanding. Also, thank you for sticking up for me today."
? What is she-
Oh…
"He insulted my girlfriend and made inappropriate remarks about me and her. I didn't mean to escalate the situation but…"
Well, saying that she is befitting his class was also insulting on his part, right? Right?
"Oh... Don't mention it…"
… So smooth, Issei...
"… Goodnight Issei."
"Goodnight."
She left the call with a hint of a sad voice. Maybe she didn't like the way I abruptly said goodnight? But… I don't exactly know how to deal with compliments.
But do get some rest Rias… I won't be doing any crazy stunts tonight. I am super drained too.
Still, before I turn in, there is something I have to find.
**A Few minutes later**
I dragged an old box full of my old clothes which I hadn't thrown away.
… Here is my middle school blazer. I sighed as I traced the quick patches I made on it. If I remember it correctly this was my fifth blazer. I mostly adjusted with the minor tears but the large ones rendered one impossible to wear.
As I traced my hands on the blazer an image of an alley with a shadowy figure passed through my mind...
I exhaled and continued to search.
If I remember correctly, I got fed up with running through uniforms quickly, so I went out and bought a black canvas work jacket (made of tougher material) with a hood. It should be around here somewhere…
!
Found it! I pulled out the jacket and some old tough jeans that I used to wear with it… Seems like the jeans aren't a fit for me anymore. The canvas jacket is still a fit for me since I bought a slightly bigger one at that time.
And to go with it... I searched inside my wardrobe and found a Kitsune mask which was mass-produced and sold during the festival. Not a classic one but a black-white Kitsune mask with golden embroidery.
There is no one in the house…
I put on the mask and my hoodie jacket.
…
… It looks surprisingly good?
[? Why are you wearing this?]
[For starters, I can't just stroll through the night like a vigilante with my powers wearing a T-shirt and my face in the open. That is why I need a starter vigilante package, a coat, a mask and superpowers (optional)]
[… Humans have weird fashion sense.]
Says the one wearing gothic with the top half-open.
[I can hear you.]
[… zero privacy. But still, the mask matches well with the coat] I said in a slightly gleeful voice.
[Does it have to match?] she asked innocently.
… Fair point. We are doing Vigilante stuff, not a fashion show. But hey, it is the secret dream of almost every guy to be a vigilante, so can't blame me for being excited.
[What will you call yourself?] Ophis asked.
Hm… Nice question. Can't say my real name and blow everything the first time someone asks it.
"Black and white… Yin and Yang, like the pieces and the board of a chess game, battling each other to dominate since the beginning of time... When you are faced with the duality of the world and the duality within yourself remember the song of Twilight…"
I flailed my arms, playing an imaginary Harp while doing a slow 360-degree rotation with the help of MoonSlide.
RaRaRa~… RaRaRa~…
[… I can't guess what you are doing no matter how much I try] Ophis said.
[I am imitating a character named Shiek from the Legend of Zelda games. You know the game where a guy with a sword is always saving a princess?]
[I want to play it]
[Figures]
Okay, seriously, duality is not a bad theme considering black and white of the mask… Maybe something like Twilight? But it's too long…
I stared at the mirror, at the Kitsune mask…
Oh…
Hey… not a bad idea… How about…
I made a fox-like gesture with my hand and looked at my reflection in the mirror through my fingers.
"Kon."
Plain and simple, certainly not inspired by an anime that begins with 'Chainsaw' and ends with 'man'.
That aside 'Kon' does mean dusk, twilight etc, even though it isn't a commonly used meaning.
I laid back on the bed.
I wonder how Rias is going to deal with this. At this point, I don't think anything can stop a fight with second years and third years or maybe just me and Hiro. Hiro has about 30-40 third years, in his gang. While not everyone seems to be well versed in fighting, most of them have an elegant and punkish aura at the same time, so many second-years might get scared to fight them. I wonder if my brother would join if a fight indeed breaks out… Maybe Matsuda and Motohama will…
I slowly drifted off to sleep.
… *On the other side of the town*…
The wall on which the message was written was now freshly painted or at least the part where the message was written was freshly painted. In the end, after much debate, the supernatural investigation team and the two rulers came to an agreement that it was impractical to wipe the memory of citizens again because whoever did this might be able to do this stunt once more. Moreover, it doesn't solve the fact that there is countless digital evidence already floating over the internet.
"I guess," Saji said, looking down from the building, "someone would probably make a video with eleven labs voice-over about this 'mystery'. Something like, 'It was a cold morning in the town called Kuoh, located in the southeast of Japan. While everyone was busy preparing for work, a newspaper boy noticed something strange, blah blah…'"
"That… seems very possible," Kiba said with a serious look.
It was not just the two of them who were on the rooftop. The student council and the ORC were both here.
Koneko was eating in a corner. Kiba and Saji were chatting. Tsubaki Shinra was talking with Sona Sitiri. Momo, Reya Kusaka, Tomoe Meguri, and Tsubasa Yura were chatting with Akeno Himejima Katase and Murayama. Izo was not there on the rooftop. He was talking with someone from the investigation team below.
Katase and Murayama were constantly sending worried glances at Rias' direction who was on a call with a certain someone.
"Wow…" Saji said, looking at Rias with a sweatdrop, "Gremory-senpai seems to really care about Hyoudou Issei…"
Kiba didn't say anything.
"Still, I can't believe he just went and knocked down Hiro like that. Tomorrow is going to be a huge headache."
"… I think there is something we are missing here," Kiba said, "Saji-kun, do you know the reason why we can't just use magic and make Hiro Satoru a well-behaved boy?"
"… Kiba Yuuto."
"?"
"You… are a genius! KAICHOU! WE CAN USE-"
Kiba grabbed Saji's shoulder. Sona Sitiri looked over for a moment and resumed her conversation with Tsubaki as if nothing happened.
"I apologize for not considering your airheadedness. I can't understand how you are so smart sometimes but… *sigh*."
Saji looked puzzled.
"… Listen, while it is true that the Hiro family has a huge influence around these parts, it shouldn't be much of a problem for us devils. We could simply instil good behaviour in him with magic. But the real problem is… rumours are going around that his teacher is from an influential supernatural family."
"Hang on," Saji said, "does that mean the Hiro family is part of the supernatural?!"
"It's not certain, but possible. I think it's most likely that they have connections with the supernatural rather than being a family of the supernatural world. Either way, we can't make any mistakes and stir up another potential war. Like the one looming over there."
Kiba and Saji glanced at the abandoned church far away.
"But Hiro…" Saji said puzzled, "his boxing career… yeah it makes sense now. How he seemingly out of nowhere became a prodigy two years ago and dominated the championship… But still, I haven't sensed mana, holy powers, demonic powers or any other energy from him."
"… Last year, do you remember the second year that finally lost it and attacked Hiro?"
"Yeah… He was expelled from school even though he was beaten up badly."
"While Hiro was fighting him, I felt it from him… a small trace of intent."
Saji turned his whole body to face Kiba in surprise.
"Seriously?! That guy? Intent?!"
Kiba nodded.
Aura is the atmosphere surrounding a living thing or a place. That is the common definition, but the aura is also the energy that reflects one's power in the supernatural world. Of course, there are deceptive arts that can make the person using it have a much stronger aura than his power level. But usually, aura reflects power, emotions and fighting spirit. So, what is intent? The time of the first appearance of intent is not clear. It is said that ages ago when two supernatural beings fought each other, one tried to use their best move to end the battle. While the supernatural being was executing the attack motion, his aura suddenly distorted into something much fiercer and stronger. Almost beast-like, one could say. The attack that was executed was many times stronger than it usually was. That is said to be the birth of the aura state called 'Intent'. Since then, 'intent' has been considered to be the milestone of aura practitioners. It can take years of mastery to achieve the 'intent' state.
Among this group, only Izo has mastered intent, which led to his fame throughout the supernatural world as one of the youngest masters of intent.
"Let me clarify," Kiba said, "What Hiro Satoru displayed was not true intent."
"What do you mean?" Saji asked puzzled.
"When he landed the final blow, his aura suddenly heightened and seemed to achieve the intent state but…" Kiba's eyes narrowed, "I have felt intent multiple times from my master. What Hiro executed was only a shadow of that technique. The phenomenon of 'pseudo-intent'."
Pseudo-intent is the stage that sometimes a practitioner reaches while moving on the path towards true intent; a lesser form of intent.
"Even if it is just Pseudo-Intent… while being a human… not to mention the age," Saji mumbled.
He suddenly realised something.
"Hold on, if that bit about Hiro's family having ties with the supernatural is true, doesn't that mean… Izo's brother just…"
Kiba nodded again. This time his expression was more serious.
If that happens to be true, Hyoudou Issei just offended the supernatural world. But that isn't the end of it since Hyoudou Issei supposedly did it on behalf of Rias Gremory… The devil faction might be in trouble once again.
"… Something doesn't add up… How did Izo's brother manage to knock him out that easily if he has pseudo-intent?"
"… This is just my theory but…"
Kiba took a deep breath.
"… it would make sense if he had pseudo-intent himself, right?"
"… … What? No way! Do you even hear yourself Kiba? Intent isn't something that just anyone can have!"
"… I think we will have answers soon," Kiba said, looking down at Izo on the street.
Birds were chirping.
*inhale*
*exhale*
"…"
I was doing my morning meditation. I have been noticing it since I got my powers, I am getting too disturbed by emotional thoughts.
There is a possibility that it is caused by these powers.
I took a shower and put on my uniform.
Halfway through I stopped and looked at the mirror.
"…"
I changed my red half-sleeved T-shirt, which I wear underneath my uniform shirt, to a black, full-sleeved T-shirt.
…
"Shh~ He is coming."
"Did you see the forum this morning?"
*hush* *hush* *whisper*
I am on an annoying journey to school. Not just because it isn't Friday yet but because everyone keeps staring at me and whispering… Now what happened? I need info. Best place? Kuoh Academy Forum.
Trending News:
Rias Gremory and Hyoudou Issei decide to break up after being together barely for a week!
"…"
What the- She did not just- *sigh*
So, this was her way of doing things, huh? The entire reason for Hiro picking a fight with me was because of me and her going out. I don't know what she hoped to accomplish right now 'breaking up' with me like this. I mean, it would have worked if she did this before Hiro came for me but this… I don't see what… oh… it can't be because she believes that she was the core reason for yesterday's fight, right?
In a way, Rias was the indirect reason I struck him. It was the whole point behind our scuffle yesterday. So maybe… he might be content with uh… maybe beating me a little less? I don't know. I guess, she is also looking out for the future troubles associated with going out with her. Makes sense. Hiro isn't the only crazy guy who has a crush on her. So, I am supposed to get beat up today and this matter will probably be over?
…
The atmosphere inside my classroom was grim. Everyone was staring at me as I walked towards my seat. The boys are gathered around Matsuda and Motohama's bench.
I replied to Motohama yesterday evening, 'We'll see tomorrow.'
So, all of them must be waiting for my answer. I sat down at my bench and they came over to my corner. Matsuda and Motohama are at the front with others behind them.
"Issei… you are aware of what happened yesterday right?" Matsuda asked.
"Yeah. A lot of 2nd years got beat up," I said.
"It was especially bad for our class," Motohama said, "we all want to know what you are going to do?"
"… What do you want me to do?"
"We were-"
"Listen here, man," a guy behind them angrily interrupted, "we kept our mouth quiet about what happened but you just disappeared yesterday right after school and we had to face the aftermath of your actions."
What they were saying was true. Most of them had band-aids and looked like they had gone through a rough beating.
"…" I waited for him to continue.
"Look, either you fix this or we go and report to the principal office that you were the one who attacked Hiro yesterday."
"… sure."
I got up from my table and walked past Matsuda and Motohama, towards him.
"If you think reporting to the office at this point will solve anything, you are free to try."
"… Tch," the boy named Aizawa turned his head away.
All of them knew that Hiro's gang's pride had been hurt, which is why they attacked them yesterday therefore doing something like reporting isn't going to be help.
Matsuda and Motohama remained silent. They both knew that the only solutions were to either fight the third-years or for Issei to apologise and probably get beat up.
*DING*
"… I'll decide what to do when I meet him," Issei said looking at his phone.
Motohama checked his phone.
A new article has arrived in the Kuoh Academy Forum.
'Hyoudou Issei is to arrive at the cafeteria during lunch break at 1:00 pm,' says Hiro Satoru
***Yesterday Evening***
"Do as you wish. I am not stopping you," Garou said.
"… what?" Hiro said.
Garou had returned to give him a few words before he left.
"Since you created this mess, I assume you will fix it yourself."
"Are you asking me to defeat Hyoudou Issei?" Hiro asked confused.
"You can take it however you wish to. I want you to find a solution to your problem."
"… I understand. I will surely defeat him, master."
Garou didn't say anything and went towards the door. Just before he went out, he turned and said:
"Make sure to use this opportunity well."
He left the room leaving a confused Hiro behind.
*Tick* *Tock* *Tick* *Tock*
The huge analogue clock in the cafeteria read 12:49 pm. The cafeteria was packed, a lot more than usual. There was panic among students. Everyone was buying something simple and trying to get out of the cafeteria as fast as they could. Hiro and his gang of 39 third-years were occupying the central space in the cafeteria. Hiro was facing the entrance of the cafeteria. In about 11 minutes, this place is probably going to be a bloodbath. Considering the numbers Hyoudou Issei was surely going to be beaten to a pulp.
"Hiro Satoru."
It was Rias. She couldn't tolerate Hiro's antics anymore and was here with her peerage. Akeno had a smiling face which was in contrast with Katase and Murayama's angry faces. Kiba and Koneko kept a calm and neutral face.
"Hyoudou Issei and I have already broken up. What more are you hoping to do by doing these pointless things?"
"… Pointless? No. Until Hyoudou Issei grovels under my feet this is not ending."
Hiro said with a pissed-off look. He certainly wasn't feeling thrilled about Rias showing care for Issei. His gang members loomed over the ORC.
"That is not happening," the third-year student, said to be the most efficient student council President Kuoh Academy has ever seen, arrived with the whole student council members.
Saji gave Hiro a hard look (looking for any hint of intent). Izo seemed neutral almost unbothered. But the rest of the members looked angry. Especially Sona Sitiri, despite keeping her face calm.
The whole group was now drawing attention. The kitchen staff whispered nervously, the same with the student body.
As the tension peaked and the clock ticked to 12:51; two unexpected figures came through the door.
"I'm sorry, but Hyoudou Issei won't be coming."
"You can talk with us instead."
Hiro's eyes narrowed as the uninvited guests came closer. It was Motohama and Matsuda.
"What are these guys doing here?" Katase asked bewildered. It was not just her. Everyone in the cafeteria, including Hiro was surprised by their arrival.
One of the third years with golden brown hair, with his hands clasped behind his back, walked up to the duo in an aristocratic manner.
"How about both of you back off for today?" he said in a calm, sweet voice with a smile. He was the right-hand man of Hiro, the famous third-year student rumoured to be strongest after Hiro in the school, Isozaki Kenji.
According to Kuoh Academy Forum, he is also from a wealthy family and both Hiro and Isozaki families are friends/business partners.
Kenji was handsome and his noble demeanour has attracted him many offers for modelling.
"Please let this matter go," Matsuda said, "Hyoudou Issei and Gremory-senpai are not even dating anymore."
"Why even bother now?" Motohama asked.
Hiro stared at them for a few seconds. He then smiled and politely addressed Sona Sitiri.
"Seems like they want to talk with us instead of him."
Realisation dawned on Sona's face as Hiro's smile turned into a creepy smirk.
"HEUK!"
She turned her head to find Motohama crouching, clutching his stomach. Kenji had punched him. The whole 40 members of Hiro's gang, including Hiro, were smirking.
Matsuda hurriedly stepped back in panic. Kenji stepped forward with an ugly grin, his fist raised.
"STOP THIS RIGHT NOW-" Sona raised her voice.
"KHEUK-!"
The cafeteria, which had entered panic mode when Kenji had punched Motohama, quietened instantly.
Rias' lips parted in surprise. Saji's mouth hung open. Only Izo's eyes narrowed while everyone else's went wide.
Motohama had just returned the favour to Kenji by punching him in the stomach.
Kenji quickly backed away, clutching his stomach but -
*CRUNCH*
Matsuda followed up with Motohama and landed a heavy blow on his face. Kenji fell backwards, unconscious.
Everyone was too surprised for words.
"T-the hell?" Murayama said.
The cafeteria suddenly broke into excited whispers.
"Did you see that?!"
"They knocked down Isozaki-senpai?!"
"I didn't know the duo were good at fighting!"
Hiro's smile vanished.
"You got that right, Hiro Satoru," Motohama said adjusting his glasses.
"We are here to talk," Matsuda said.
"! No, I SAID-" Sona raised her voice again.
"Sona Sitiri, here is a proposal for you."
Hiro got up and walked towards her. The student council members readied themselves.
"Either I stop here right now and leave things exactly as they are or we can end it with the three of them. Your choice."
Sona's mind flared with anger. She just wanted to blast this guy away for good and hated her inability to do so out of fear for her race. The devil community cannot handle a war right now.
If she prevents this fight now, Hiro is implying that he will make sure that his gang continues to harass the underclassmen, most likely outside the school grounds, since it is not under the jurisdiction of the Academy. But if she turns a blind eye to this right now…
She knew that if she asked her sister for help, her sister might even put the whole Hiro family under magic and straighten them out; even if it meant there was a potential possibility of war. That's how much her sister adored her. She was sure, Rias' brother would do the same. But both of the devil rulers of Kuoh didn't want to make things worse for the devil society even if it was only a possibility.
Hiro didn't wait for Sona's reply.
"Do you want to wait for the third idiot to show up or do you want to be pummelled into the ground right now?" Hiro asked the duo with a smile.
Motohama and Matsuda looked at each other and nodded. They both charged at the 40 third-year students.
"Guys," Hiro loudly said with a cold face, "make an example out of them."
""YES, SIR!""
His gang members also charged at them.
*12 minutes later*
Motohama was resting on one knee. The cafeteria was noisy with grunts, shouts and many people whispering. The clock read: 1:04 pm.
"Are these two for real?!"
Both of them had taken out 11 guys in such a short period. They were fighting like mad dogs without a care for their safety. While both displayed remarkable fighting prowess… they were now out of stamina.
Especially, Motohama.
Kiba turned to Rias.
"Buchou, shouldn't we stop this?" Kiba said anxiously seeing their battered bodies.
Rias didn't say anything. The student council members were also glancing at Sona for orders.
The rest of the student body was in chaos. Some 2nd years were discussing whether to join the duo. But after seeing how bloody the fight was and also because Hiro said, he would end things with the duo and Issei, they got cold feet. But almost everyone amongst them had to admit that the duo were monsters in fighting.
"… But still, can you believe these guys?!" Saji said with wide eyes, "They took down 11 guys this fast… I thought they were just mindless perverts."
"Shit! Move!" Motohama said to himself. He was drained.
'I can't believe I am already out of stamina…' Motohama thought. His glasses had cracked and were lying on the floor.
Matsuda was somehow still barely holding his ground against two third years. Like Motohama he was bleeding all over.
With all of his strength, Motohama got up again. But just before he could step towards Matsuda,
*WHAM*
He was knocked out by a punch from behind which hit the base of his skull. The cafeteria went silent as Motohama fell face-first, unconscious.
It was Kenji.
His handsome face was now a bloody mess thanks to Motohama's punch which broke his nose.
"MOTOHAMA!" Matsuda turned his head.
*WHACK*
Matsuda provided an opportunity to get punched by turning his head away from his opponent and after that… it was over for them.
Motohama and Matsuda lay sprawled on the floor in the bloody mess they had become. Many students averted their eyes. Even the staff were finding it hard to look at them anymore.
Kenji loomed over them. He raised his foot and stomped Matsuda's head on the floor.
"How dare you do this to my face…"
He stomped on him again and again, more fiercely each time, making even those around him uncomfortable watching. Hiro seemed uninterested.
…
"… Buchou, I'm sorry," Kiba Yuuto had enough, "You can say that I disobeyed your orders-"
*CHILLS*
Kiba felt a chill run down his spine. He reflexively turned his whole body around. Koneko also turned her head quickly in the same direction.
A beat of sweat ran down Kiba's face as he saw Hyoudou Issei. It wasn't because Kiba was worried about what they were going to do to Issei, seeing what happened to the duo. It was because of Issei's expression.
"H-hyoudou-kun…" Kiba called him reflexively.
Everyone turned their head towards Issei's direction. Rias, who saw what happened to Motohama and Matsuda, felt a chilling sense of dread run through her body.
Issei's eyes were fixed on the perverted duo lying on the floor.
"Wa-wait!" Rias looked at Hiro in panic, who had just regained interest in the situation and was smiling, "Please-"
"Hey, you…" Issei said, his eyes slowly moving up from the duo on the floor to Kenji, "W̴͎̤̫̙̿͋͜ȁ̵̞̗͒͘s̶̩̏̏̈ ̶̨̛̖͖͎̿̈t̶͙̎͜͝ȟ̷͓̦̪̇̈́̓a̵̟̻̐́̍́̊t̸̨̖̣͕̗̃̏̋ ̴̨̤̱͎͑̆̀́y̶̦̖͔̯̰̽̈́̓̕ó̵̟̮̥u̶̘̱̦͖͇̚r̸̝͇̰͉̐͌͘ ̵̞̣͈̀̎̈́̄͝d̷͚̂͐̅o̸͉̗̜̣̾i̷͖̅n̴͓̹̗̮̘̔̏ģ̵̤͔̥̙͊̓?̶̔̉͊̌͜͝"
Author's note: That's all for today, hope you enjoyed the chapter. Don't forget to leave a comment if you liked it. I would love to hear your thoughts.
Now towards the title change. The new title will be, 'T.G.O.E: Kon'. It will be changed to the new title one week after this chapter's release
Why a title change?
Ans: Because I just realised that it has the same name as Twilight written by Stephenie Meyer. Analysing my cover image I think There
What is 'Kon'?
Ans: I am using a lesser-used definition of Kon which means dusk, the same as Twilight. So the theme is still preserved. Also, it is the name of my youtube channel (KON光影), which is nothing special at this moment because it is only one month old, therefore I don't recommend subscribing to it right now since I am only starting to learn editing. Okay, enough self-promotion.
What is T.G.O.E?
Ans: I know this is gonna sound weird but… I am not gonna reveal it right now. Now, now don't worry I know what those letters stand for but I... just want to keep it a suspense. Yeah, that's it.
