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. What's worse, the divine power he received happened to possess a small, but potentially fatal side effect...

Sunny did not have to wander the stretch of the staging area that had been ruined by the destruction of the wall for long. It was a mess, with collapsed prefab buildings laying shattered and broken, buried under piles of alloy debris. Finding anyone here would have been a challenge.
Before he allowed himself to drown in dark thoughts, however, a familiar black bird appeared from above and landed on a bent steel beam protruding from the ground nearby.
The Crow waved its wings, clearly agitated, and cawed:
"Jet! Jet!"
Sunny let out a shaky breath, feeling a lot of relief. If the Echo was still here, Soul Reaper couldn't be dead. He took a step toward the bird and asked:
"Where is she?"
Instead of answering, the Crow flew away, landed on a communication relay a dozen meters away, and looked back expectantly.
In this way, the Echo led Sunny to Master Jet.
After finding her, Sunny remained silent for a few moments. Then, he coughed.
