It's Just A Picture (BL) - Chapter 49: I hate myself

Ren has never known kindness. He grew up alone in the slums, learning to survive by staying out of sight and trusting no one. One night, he stumbles into a strange tunnel and finds a hidden shrine forgotten by time.There, he sees a black cat with golden eyes and hears a voice inside his head.The shrine is more than it seems. So is the cat.As Ren is pulled into something ancient and mysterious, he must decide if he's willing to take a different step in life or keep running from the world that hurt him.Because the city doesn't care if he lives or dies, but something in the dark might.(No system, no isekai, no reincarnation, no regression, no harem. The story focuses on mystery and character development.)

A mysterious wave of black mist swept over the whole planet, resulting in monsters and super power holders.And Jiang Hou awakens a talent under the corruption, becoming a... colossal beast of destruction.

What is love after all, and where does it come from?I can't quite understand it. Perhaps love is just a colorful butterfly, beautiful to look at but forever out of reach.If you try to hold onto it tightly, it will struggle, and in that struggle, it will rub off all its colors and become pale.

Liohime Kitagami could only blink in utter confusion as the fully nude body of the woman came into view.And thus, only a single word creaked out from him in response.“….Eh?”The playful beaming smile of the young woman emerged right before she jumped at him and screamed with joy while her arms opened wide for an emphatic hug.“MASTER, WELCOME HOME!!!”It was at that moment that the life of Liohime Kitagami from the Shinigami Soldiers changed forever.In a modern fantasy world where powerful magic beasts are the norm, seventeen year-old Liohime undergoes his biggest undercover theft mission yet by sneaking into one of the branches of the most famous Magical Beast organizations. His life changes completely when his eyes casts upon his target- a mysterious green and white decorated egg.Unfortunately, his split second decision of taking it while almost out of time was a mistake. Thus, life with an extremely clingy sacred beast that could transform into a mythical young woman who displayed a hyperfixation of love for him had emerged.While understanding that this magical beast is probably more incredibly important than he might have thought, it is up to Liohime Kitagami to engage in countless day to day activities, adventures, recreational mishaps, dates and more with mayhem lurking around every corner in order to satisfy this Magical Beast Girl that won't leave him alone....***TW: BOO! Profanity and sexual themes included!....Hey, why are you not scared?
