A rivalry shaped by literary ambition

In this second volume, the contrast between struggling writer Subaru Karasuma and celebrated author Geppo Yagira becomes more than a measure of professional success. Geppo’s difficult childhood is presented as a force behind his determination to thrive in literature, while Subaru’s sense of inferiority sharpens the tension between them. The setup brings together competition, painful personal history, and the costs of pursuing recognition, placing the story’s psychological drama within the world of publishing and literary fame.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Manga readers interested in psychological drama and rivalry between writers.
  • Readers drawn to stories about ambition, insecurity, and the pressures of literary success.

Book overview

A struggling writer finds himself drawn into darkness by a seductive, talented author in this enthralling psychological drama from the best-selling creator of Cherry Magic!

Nothing makes struggling writer Subaru Karasuma's inferiority complex flare up like the mention of Geppo Yagira, a best-selling author with a huge following of beautiful female readers. Geppo's good looks and elegant demeanor only add insult to injury. But Subaru could never have imagined that Geppo's childhood was a living hell filled with horrors beyond comprehension. This dark past is the reason why this literary star is fiercely determined to thrive in the world of literature--at any cost.
