In the dark and treacherous city of Blackmere, investigator Elias Renshaw has spent years uncovering lost artifacts and unraveling hidden truths. But when a mysterious woman named Lena approaches him with a cryptic message—"Find the Black Key before they do"—he is thrust into a deadly game of secrets, betrayal, and power. The Black Key is rumored to be an ancient artifact tied to the forgotten kings of old, a key that could unlock something capable of reshaping the very foundations of the city. As Elias and Lena race against shadowy forces who will stop at nothing to possess it, they must navigate a maze of cryptic clues, dangerous adversaries, and a history that refuses to stay buried. With every step closer to the truth, they uncover more than they bargained for—hidden alliances, a centuries-old conspiracy, and an enemy who knows their every move. In a city where trust is scarce and the past is as dangerous as the present, Elias must decide how far he is willing to go to unearth the Black Key’s true power. Will he unlock salvation—or doom?

When monsters sprouted from suddenly appearing towers all over the world, the world leaders created an organization of skilled warriors to tackle this problem. The warriors compromised of awakened humans; people who had gotten skills similar to those in a video game. Unfortunately, not everyone was willing to join this attack force, so the world leaders implemented a lottery-system to fill out the ranks. A few years later, Evelyn’s twin sister was chosen via lottery to become a discoverer, but their biased parents forced Evelyn to go in her sister's stead, putting her in the line of danger. The only salvation was that her finance was also sent on the same mission. The mission was to conquer a new Boss floor, and they were to fight against a monster of unpresented might. What she hadn’t expected was that her fiancé would betray her, because of a plot he concocted together with her sister. The monster annihilated their whole team before they were finally able to defeat it, but her fiancé had no thoughts of letting her leave the tower. Stabbing her in the back, he leered over her as he explained their plan while she slowly bled to death. With the last of her life force, dead set on getting her revenge on the man she had promised her life with, she heals the boss monster in hopes that it will kill him. As she slowly closes her eyes, the world going dark around her, a notification from the system pops up. “ New class: Black healer Congratulations! You have completed the hidden legendary quest, healing an S-ranked monster on its last breath by sacrificing yourself. Your immensely caring heart should be an inspiration to all healers, both human and monsters! Not caring for the wounded’s different race and even sacrificing the last of your own life, you have been given a new chance at life. ” Waking up, she is now back three years before the battle took place. Her new life starts now!

Space is vast, unfathomable—an ocean of shadows where humanity has advanced without understanding what lurks in its depths. Twenty-two years ago, a planet appeared out of nowhere. It was on no star map. It had no orbit, no light, no signs of life. Yet, it pulsed. Now, the ship Astraea-7 is on its way to meet it. The mission is clear. The crew knows why they are there. All except one. Haruto never asked to be part of this exploration. But his presence is no coincidence. He is the key—though he does not know it yet. As the ship crosses the planet’s threshold, signals distort, communication breaks, and the silence is filled with something else. Then, it happens. For the first time in human history, the abyss answers. And in the depths of the shadow, a voice whispers: “Welcome home.” Thus begins Haruto’s journey of self-discovery, where he will uncover the echoes of a forgotten past and the shadow of a future he has yet to understand.

God of Wonder, God of Light, father to the holy ones, and creator of life. Exalted above all things he and his angels were guardians of the universe. Or so they said.

But for a heavy price, they did. God of Wonder, God of Light. Who is holier? Who is right? God of Darkness, God of Night. Too afraid to rebel... though he might.
