In a world governed by the Beast Pact, your worth is determined by the glow of a testing sphere. For Kaelen, the sphere remained dim, marking him as an E-rank "scumbag." While others bonded with majestic dragons, Kaelen was chosen by a "defective" shadow-beast that the world deemed a death sentence. Mocked by his family and betrayed by his fiancé, Kaelen is left to rot in a sabotaged dungeon. But deep in the darkness, the "defect" speaks.
