1 Prologue

In a world engulfed by darkness and danger unveiling the existence of an ancient force known as "anima mundi." This powerful energy permeates every corner of the Earth, empowering those who dare to tap into its mystical depths. For countless millennia, the world has been plagued by undead creatures and monstrous abominations, relentlessly seeking to consume the souls and flesh of humanity in shadows. Yet, as the world teeters on the edge of annihilation, Mother Earth herself has unleashed anima mundi upon the deserving few who possess the courage and strength to wield it.

These chosen individuals, known as knight magus, have become humanity's last line of defense against the encroaching darkness. Blessed with the ability to harness anima mundi, they possess a repertoire of spells, techniques, and ancient knowledge, enabling them to combat the horrors that haunt their world. Since time immemorial, the knight magus have valiantly fought against the unholy forces threatening the very existence of mankind.

As the battle between knight magus and the legions of undead rages on, the world holds its breath. The relentless assault of these nightmarish creatures persists, leaving no corner of the globe untouched. In this desperate struggle, a select few ordinary humans have been chosen to walk the path of the knight magus. Drawn from various walks of life, they are offered a secret sanctuary within a hidden university scattered across the world.

Within the confines of these covert institutions of sorcery, the chosen few are granted the opportunity to master the ancient arts of magic. Under the guidance of seasoned knight magus, they are taught the intricacies of wielding anima mundi, honing their skills to perfection. This secret education allows them to continue their fight against the forces of darkness without attracting unwanted attention from the public, media, or the prying eyes of the internet.

As the world remains oblivious to the ongoing battle that threatens its very existence, these graduates and even current students stand ready to take up the mantle of the knight magus. Equipped with their newfound knowledge and armed with anima mundi, they step into the shadows, prepared to face the unspeakable horrors that lie in wait. United by a common purpose and bound by their duty to protect humanity, they will stop at nothing to ensure that the light of hope prevails against the encroaching darkness.

In the bustling city of Manila, the streets pulsate with life and mystery. Amidst the vibrant chaos, a young man named Renji stands poised on the precipice of destiny. At twenty-three years old, he has just completed his studies at ALIVARD University, a prestigious institution known for its secret sorcery program. Renji's exceptional talent and unwavering dedication have earned him a place among the elite few chosen to wield the power of anima mundi.

However, Renji's journey has only just begun. He has been selected as an undercover agent, sent by ALIVARD on a clandestine mission to the Philippines. A new wave of undead creatures has emerged, threatening the fragile balance between the world of the living and the realm of darkness.

Disguised as a student in a local high school university, Renji treads carefully, his true identity concealed beneath a mask of normalcy. He immerses himself in the daily routines of a student, attending classes and participating in extracurricular activities. But behind the facade of a regular young man, Renji is ever vigilant, ready to confront the horrors that lurk in the shadows of the night.

As darkness falls upon the city, Renji's first mission commences. Armed with his knowledge of sorcery and the raw power of anima mundi coursing through his veins, he ventures into the heart of danger. Unfamiliar streets become his battlefield, and every encounter with the undead is a test of his skills, resolve, and the strength of his newfound abilities.

Renji's journey will be fraught with peril, for he will not only face the physical threats of the undead but also the psychological and emotional challenges that come with living a double life. The lines between friend and foe blur as he navigates a treacherous world, unsure of whom he can trust. Each step forward brings him closer to uncovering the truth behind the undead's resurgence and the dark forces that threaten to plunge the world into eternal night.
