The Betrayal Knows My Name

裏切りは僕の名前を知っている

Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitteiru

High school student Yuki Sakurai has spent his entire life in an orphanage, constantly feeling like a burden to those around him. Though he possesses the rare ability to sense the emotions of others, this gift only brings him suffering. One day, a mysterious and attractive man dressed in black rescues Yuki; the man seems oddly familiar. He later introduces himself as Zess and shows deep concern for Yuki before vanishing with a warning. The next day, Takashiro Giou, the head of the Giou Clan, arrives at the orphanage, claiming to be Yuki's brother and extending an offer that Yuki hesitates to accept. As unknown threats close in and familiar figures resurface, Yuki begins to realize that his seemingly ordinary existence holds far greater significance than he ever imagined.
