Once all people received Souls and incredible powers. Some were lucky enough to obtain the Soul of an ancient and powerful creature, but fate was not favorable to all. The world began to change, and creatures evolved. But, it was not the beginning of a new era. It was the end. A couple of months later, a dark mist appeared and destroyed the world. It was a dictate of destiny from which no one could escape. Wain Norheim was the world's best assassin and the only one who didn't get a soul. However, he was destined to gain the power to confront fate. Escaping through a portal into another world, he unknowingly began the apocalypse. Even the world failed to expel him.
'Ah, Alice... I hope my intuition doesn't fail me, and Ern, though cunning, is a good man.' Wain thought and followed them.
Wain would have taken Alice to Last Light in any other situation, but she was Ern's property, and it wasn't worth ruining the relationship with him.
"Ern, what do you think the second challenge will be?"
"I don't know. I don't intend to take it anyway." Ern shrugged.
"What?"
"Since one of the items I created will be for sale in the second phase, I have certain privileges."
"It looks like your privileges have no limit."
"Hahaha, they're not. Artur is just very kind, without him, I'd be in big trouble."
"Why did you decide to skip this challenge? You could have turned it down last time, too."
"Reason is walking beside me now." Ern looked at Alice, "I can't and won't leave her unattended."
