Story
Elian dies at the hands of his four demon foster-dads, and a sibling's betrayal lies behind it. When the System offers a second life, he agrees, though the deal brings a seven-day countdown to death and timed missions. His weapon is unusual, drawn from his own body, and his targets are the Four Demon Kings. This time he means to make the demons the hunted.
