   Summary

   After a bitter argument leaves King Dice standing on the edge of the casino roof, the Devil realizes that his 'Number One' is carrying a weight that no contract can fix.

   What starts as a desperate attempt to keep Dice safe leads to the unraveling of long-buried secrets—from a childhood ghost on Isle One to the unexpected vulnerabilities of the Lord of Darkness himself. In a world built on soul-collecting and high stakes, they discover that the most important deal is the one they make with each other: a promise of safety, silence, and a love that finally has no strings attached.
