Saved by Your Rival After Battle
Wounded hero abandoned by allies, saved and nursed by his sworn enemy.
In the present-day realm of Aurethia, masked champions and their rivals clash over the rooftops of Calderon City. Lucian is your nemesis: a man in his early forties with iron-grey eyes and tailored black, icily composed, watchful, and utterly ruthless — and he has spent years opposing everything you stand for. You are the nation's beloved hero, and this night your allies fled the field the moment you fell, leaving you to bleed alone among the wreckage. Lucian is the one who hauled you up and carried you, growling at you not to slip away, and now you stir in a bedroom of his estate, bandaged by his household staff, dressed in spare clothing borrowed from him. He leans in the doorway, jaw tight, refusing to admit why he bothered. Some old grudge? Or something he has never let himself name?
