Growing up in poverty, Sunny never expected anything good from life. However, even he did not anticipate being chosen by the Nightmare Spell and becoming one of the Awakened - an elite group of people gifted with supernatural powers. Transported into a ruined magical world, he found himself facing against terrible monsters - and other Awakened - in a deadly battle of survival.

Sunny smiled and leaned back on his chair, then looked at his friends with curiosity.
There was a question he really wanted to ask, but tried not to up until now.
"...What's your second Ability, anyway?"
His words hung in the air for a few moments. Suddenly, Kai coughed with embarrassment and looked away. After a couple of seconds, he said in a strange tone:
"I, uh… can see really far now, when I want to. Even when there's no light. I am also supposed to be able to see through illusions and all forms of obfuscation, whatever that means. And… uh… I can also see through objects."
Sunny and Effie stared at him and asked almost simultaneously:
"Like, through walls?"
"Like, through clothes?"
Kai hid behind his glass, lingered for a bit, and then answered in a small voice:
"...Yes. But I would never!"
While Sunny tried to imagine why would Kai refuse to look through walls, Effie laughed out loud.
"I see, I see. What a great Ability!"
