Recap of Chapter 49 – Hunter's Instinct
The chaos of the reception hall splintered the group. Lilith followed a shadowy summons to the rooftop, while Kazuki, Morwen, and the demon bridesmaids scrambled through labyrinthine corridors to catch up. Every hallway twisted like a trap, every locked door slowing Kazuki's frantic pursuit. Meanwhile, Lilith reached the rooftop first, where a figure was already waiting—someone who carried the unmistakable aura of a hunter. The moonlight caught in their eyes, and Lilith realized with chilling certainty: they knew her true name. And they hadn't come to talk.
Main Story
The rooftop air was razor-thin, the kind that carried no warmth even under a full moon. The city stretched endlessly below, glittering like an indifferent audience.
Lilith froze at the threshold, her fingers flexing as she let the aura settle around her like a noose.
