Intense Palpitations, a Mysterious Senior

Fu Zeyu set out for Forest City.

Along the way, his feelings were complicated. He longed for power, yet he was faintly worried about the unknown that awaited him.

The path to becoming a Contract Anomalist was filled with uncertainties, but whenever he thought of protecting his family, he found the courage to press forward.

Forest City was a place where prosperity and mystery coexisted, and one of the Aberration Containment Association's branches was hidden within it.

The moment Fu Zeyu entered Forest City, he sensed an atmosphere unlike anywhere else, as though the air itself was filled with secrets.

Following Uncle Ge's instructions, he arrived before an ordinary-looking building. This was the Aberration Containment Association's office in Forest City.

When he pushed open the door, he found the room somewhat dimly lit. A woman in a black uniform sat behind a desk, busy with her work.

She looked up and scrutinized Fu Zeyu with sharp eyes. "Are you here for the Contract Anomalist selection?"

Fu Zeyu nodded, doing his best to remain calm.

The woman handed him a form. "Fill this out first. Someone will contact you afterward."

During the days he waited, Fu Zeyu worked to adjust himself while quietly gathering information about Contract Anomalists.

He learned that Contract Anomalists gained power by forming contracts with special Weirds. Compared with Anomaly Tamers, their powers were more stable and had relatively fewer side effects.

However, the selection process for Contract Anomalists was extremely strict. Countless people came to try every year, but only a handful succeeded.

Meanwhile, Shen Yu had been observing Fu Zeyu from the shadows. He grew increasingly curious about the secrets of this world, and increasingly convinced that the karmic threads surrounding Fu Zeyu were unfathomably deep. He wanted to know how those threads would change
