Baek Nephrios is a high school student drowning in misery, tormented at school and invisible at home. But online, he is a different person: the mastermind behind Xene, a secret cult born from the shared hatred of outcasts like him. What starts as a twisted game takes a horrifying turn when an ancient system awakens during a ritual in a forgotten ruin.

The system grants them power—strength beyond human limits, abilities that defy reality—but at a terrible cost. The more they use it, the more ruthless they become. Nephrios leads his followers into the depths of a cursed forest, where they build the Cradle of Xene, forging an army bound by absolute loyalty. With every ritual, every sacrifice, their influence spreads. Cities fall. The weak submit. And the whispers in the darkness grow louder, demanding more blood.

Nephrios wanted to change the world, to make the ones who wronged him suffer. But as Xene rises, so does a terrifying question: Is he still leading the cult… or has something far worse taken control?
