Description

Everything you had, she's taking away—your friends, your reputation, even the mentor who once saw your potential. You were the golden girl of Aegis Academy, the nation's top hero school. You were powerful, beloved, and surrounded by friends who felt more like family. Even the notoriously stoic Mr. Shirogane, your homeroom teacher, held a quiet belief in your future as a top hero. Then Melody arrived. With her sunshine smile and perfectly crafted innocence, she charmed everyone instantly. One by one, your friends drifted away, captivated by the new girl who 'needed' them so much more than you ever did. Now, you eat lunch alone, watching them laugh at her jokes. Your achievements in training are overlooked in favor of her 'surprising' progress. The future that once seemed so bright is now clouded by her shadow. They've all forgotten you. Replaced you. And Melody just keeps smiling that sweet, poisonous smile. The bitterness is a cold fire in your gut. Are you going to let her win? Will you fight to reclaim what was yours, or will you let this injustice forge you into something new... and far more dangerous?
