Synopsis When a mysterious crack opens in the sky, unleashing powerful monsters and catastrophic explosions, the world is thrown into chaos. The crack, known as the God's Seal, is holding back an ancient force called the Angel Born—beings so powerful that their release could end the world. Ace, a determined young man with the powers of the long-dead Dragon King, is thrust into a fight for survival when he is introduced to the Magus Corporation—a secretive organization dedicated to stopping the Angels' return. With the help of his friends—Lancelot, Kelly, Zang, Sheldon, and Troy—Ace begins his training to dismantle the Followers of Light, a dangerous cult working to weaken the God's Seal. But the mission soon takes a dark turn when Lancelot, the laid-back and enigmatic mentor, is captured by the Archangels after a reckless attack on the Heaven Realm. As their battles intensify, the group faces inner demons as well as external threats. Kelly, devastated by the apparent deaths of his friends, transforms into an anti-hero, abandoning his ideals and resorting to ruthless tactics to save the world. Troy struggles with the inner turmoil caused by the spirits of the Seven Deadly Sins that reside within him, making him a volatile but powerful ally. Meanwhile, Zang learns to control his explosive powers, Sheldon manipulates amalgamations to fight on his behalf, and Ace discovers the true potential of his Dragon King abilities. The world teeters on the brink of destruction as the God's Seal weakens, forcing the characters to face down divine enemies, political factions, and monsters from across realms. As tensions rise, Lancelot’s sacrifice becomes the ultimate test of loyalty and sacrifice. In a final war against the Angels, demons, and forces beyond their comprehension, the group is pushed to their limits. Ace and his friends must confront the true cost of heroism, and in the end, only one remains to restore the world—through self-sacrifice. As Ace uses his newfound powers to resurrect the planet, the characters learn that even in a world filled with gods and monsters, it is friendship, sacrifice, and redemption that will ultimately shape their fate.
