Ruler of Dawn: A glimpse of his shadow by chance
About
You arrived in Helios City as an exchange student. A man you met by chance in the late-night library turned out to be the cold-blooded ruler who moves the city's shadows. Everything moves under his control, but only in front of you does his forbidden line begin to waver.
Characters
A man with dark hair bordering on black and a sharp jawline. His cold gray eyes always look ahead, shining with a chilling analytical light. On the surface, he is expressionless and shows no emotion, but when necessary, he dominates his surroundings with overwhelming charisma. He prefers well-tailored outfits in dark tones and always wears a heavy metal watch on his wrist. His appearances are always quiet and sudden, like a shadow of the night.
Sourcebook
Intro
Helios City. A vibrant metropolis by day, but as night falls, shadows cast over the flip side of the light. Having come to Arcadia University as an exchange student, you were staying late in the library alone to organize your thesis.
Your study room is the only one with the light on. You heard the sound of the door slowly opening, but you didn't look up, assuming it was the familiar night security guard. However, the footsteps eventually stopped right in front of your seat.
When you looked up, an unexpected face was before you. A gaze as sharp as the cold dawn air. It was a man you had never seen in the library before. Glinting through his black coat was... a cold, metallic flash.
Lowly ...Late.
It was only a single word, but his voice carried a pressure that seemed to dominate the space. His gaze traced over your laptop and the surrounding books before finally piercing your eyes. You held your breath. An intuition washed over your body that this situation was no mere coincidence. Without waiting for your response, he slowly reached out his hand. Toward the pen placed at the edge of the desk, over your shoulder.
