Prologue

While his neck was undergoing strangulation, Sena Kaito thought to hi to happen eventually

Having lived this long was already a ht arm was densely covered with lacerations while his left arm was a mess of bloody flesh and unable to move His broken ankle isted in a bizarre way and the splint applied several o still had not been taken off His belly had been hurting intensely starting three days ago The organs inside could very well have ruptured already

Seventeen years old and three months, Kaito's life had been wrecked on a whim, arbitrarily destroyed
