She grew up ashamed of him. To her, he was everything a father shouldn't be: incompetent, greedy, selfish, and utterly embarrassing. Living at the very bottom of society, he couldn’t provide her the comfort or dignity she longed for. Her childhood was colored by disappointment, resentment, and a deep desire to escape the shadow of a man she believed had failed her in every way. She avoided him. She hated the way he scrimped and saved. She hated the way he dressed, the way he spoke, the way he simply existed. But then, everything changed. One day, she stumbled upon a truth too heavy to bear: her father had been silently battling cancer for sixteen years. He endured endless pain, not for himself, but to stay alive for her. To make sure she was fed. Clothed. Safe. By the time she understood the weight of his sacrifice, it was too late. He was gone. And for the first time in her life, she wept not from shame or frustration, but from grief, regret, and a love she had never realized was there all along. A heartbreaking tale of misunderstanding, sacrifice, and redemption, My Daughter Says: Having a Father Like Me is Really Embarrassing will leave you in tears, reminding us all that love sometimes hides behind the quietest of struggles. ---------- Source Material: 女儿说：有我这种父亲，真丢人

"You will suffice." That's what something whispered in Raizen's mind before a Nyx dissolved into shining ashes at his feet — right after it slaughtered everyone he ever had. He doesn't know what he's "sufficient" for, what spoke to him, or why it led him to an unconscious girl with no memory. He only knows his world is gone, and the only place that'll take him now is the Underworks — a rusty undercity beneath Neoshima's walls, where survival is never guaranteed. His only way out: the Lotus Academy, where he can learn about Nyxes, the ruined world's dark history, and how to wield Eon. Train hard enough, and he might become a Vanguard — the elite that hunts down humanity's worst nightmares. ...But the voice hasn't spoken since. And the higher Raizen climbs, the clearer a dark truth becomes: the thing that saved him, and the darkness that has haunted humanity for centuries... Might just be the same thing.
