"In a world driven by raw power and mindless slaughter, he treats survival like a hostile corporate takeover."
Kurayami doesn't view magic with divine awe; he views it strictly as an unstable, high-risk asset. But balancing two diametrically opposite forces-Light and Dark magic-inside his own soul is pushing his mental baseline to a violent breaking point.
The contract was straightforward: Extract a high-value, traumatized target named Rin from a brutal underground facility and ghost out.
But a silent retrieval quickly devolves into a facility-wide prison riot. Now boxed into a literal dead end within an ancient subterranean labyrinth built by Rin's own father, Kurayami faces an equation filled with lethal, unlisted variables.
A ruthless mercenary syndicate scraping at the walls outside.
A mysterious Supreme Boss pulling the strings from the absolute shadows.
And a supposedly loyal family butler whose eyes flash with a predatory blue light, hiding a grotesque secret beneath his shawl.
To make matters worse, they are left holding a sealed weapon of boundless destruction. With its security matrix sitting on its tenth and final activation attempt, a single wrong input will convert the entire sector into a mass grave.
As the suffocating darkness closes in, the dark mana begins to bleed directly into Kurayami's thoughts, whispering promises of unhinged, absolute supremacy. To survive the night, will he rely on cold, calculated metrics... or will he succumb to the ravenous monster he swore he would never become again?
