In the magical world of Aetherus, Damon Grey is the weakest student at Aether Academy, relentlessly bullied and ridiculed for his lack of power and defiant personality. Yet, he endures the torment, clinging to his scholarship—the only thing providing him with the funds to keep his sick sister alive. 

After a brutal attack leaves him near death, Damon encounters a dark viscous entity in the forest that fuses with his shadow, awakening the Living Shadow System. This strange power grants him unimaginable abilities but comes with a grim cost—a relentless hunger for souls and flesh to feed his shadow. 

Now, with his shadow alive and insatiable, Damon faces a terrible choice: feed it to grow stronger or starve it and die with it. 

In a world ruled by ruthless nobles, deadly monsters, and power-hungry demons, Damon must decide if his newfound power is a curse or the only way to survive. With the Living Shadow System, his fate is clear: devour or be devoured.

My Living Shadow System Devours To Make Me Stronger

Damon was caught off guard by her sudden outburst. The sharpness of her tone and the anger in her eyes were unexpected. Her emotions seemed to boil over without warning, leaving him momentarily speechless.

It wasn't the first time he'd seen such resentment. He recognized the look—it was one he was all too familiar with.

"I'm not a noble," Damon said calmly, leaning back in his chair.

"I don't think you've ever heard of a noble family named Grey, have you?"

Iris didn't seem convinced. Her gaze shifted to the tea cup in front of him, her lips pressing into a thin line.

"But you have to be," she insisted. "That tea etiquette... only nobles bother with that kind of refinement."

Damon tilted his head slightly, perplexed. "Tea etiquette?"

"Yes!" she snapped. "The way you hold the cup, pour the tea, everything about it screams noble upbringing."

Damon chuckled softly, setting the tea cup down.
