The balance of the world collapsed when portals opened up to different worlds. Humans were granted systems to hunt the beasts in the Otherworlds. These beasts could give the Hunters their Codes, granting them special abilities and weapons.

In this world, Allen was born with an incurable disease that rendered his throat unable to utter words. He could only produce hissing sounds that made the other Hunters to bully him relentlessly.

He was the freak without a family.

But his world had shifted when he accidentally killed the lost beast and gained its Code. The Code of the Primordial Snake, one of the strongest beasts of the Otherworlds.

Allen immediately froze after Jeremy mentioned his name. He gulped and looked up only for him to be wrapped up in the arms of the other boy. The warmth from Jeremy's body felt familiar yet weird for him.

It was a different kind of warmth from Hilda's hug, like another feeling. When the woman made him feel like he was a son, Jeremy made him feel like a friend. Like someone was actually waiting for him, and that someone was his ally.

"You don't know how much it affected me after you were lost," Jeremy said. "I was made at Kyle and the others. It took us a week before I finally talked to them. Do you know how much I was worried?"

Allen was speechless. He looked at Jeremy to see the sincerity in his eyes, but all the boy could see were tears. Jeremy was crying.

"Alice was gone, and then you," Jeremy chuckled in sorrow. "You were the first person to ever talk to me, yet you– Allen."
