The Fake Hero
'Ding!'
[31st December, 23:00, suicide reminder.]
Claude, a young and brilliant surgeon who is well-known among his peers, has finally decided to end his life tonight. On the beautiful new year’s eve, under the bright stars and fireworks celebrating the joy of life, he stepped onto the hospital rooftop in an attempt to take his own life.
To his surprise, what awaits him on top was a ‘lurker’.
A being that appeared many years ago out of nowhere, who feasts specifically on human blood.
They’re vicious, powerful, unique, and most importantly, smart. After all, they were once humans, disabled humans, to be exact. They gain power according to their disability.
Blind? They got night vision.
Deaf? They got super hearing.
Paralyzed arms? They now have four arms that are sharper than swords.
Although they had the same disabilities when they were humans, no lurker harbors the same power. One disability can lead to countless types of power, which humans still haven’t figured out how.
After barely escaping death due to a stranger called Ajax, Claude comes to learn the fact that his dead brother had a second life as a ‘lurker executioner’ that he wasn’t aware of. And, most importantly, the fact that those ‘lurkers’ have something to do with his brother’s death.
“I will wipe out every single lurker on earth.”
With his newfound hatred and anger, will Claude be able to kill all lurkers who are living among humans, disguised as one of them? And will he be able to find a bonded family within this organization called the ‘Lurker Executioner’?
… But, what if lurkers are not that black and white?

Hello hello there~
This is my second book, and it’s more of a passion project! :3 So please be nice to me~
Update will be pretty slow, since I will take my time to carefully write and plan this. This will contain pretty dark themes, morally questionable scenarios (but absolutely no r*pe and stuff, I mean just like situations where you don’t really know who’s the good guy and who’s the bad guy), but also cute, warmsies-warmsies moments hehe!
[Trigger warning: mention of suicide on the first chapter]
Cover is drawn by me since I don’t wanna steal art, I respect all lines of work, even though I know it’s not as good as professionally made covers :3
Thank you for docaqui and my friend for helping me with the font!
