But a life of silent suffering is abruptly shattered by a global broadcast. The Vice President of Japan, makes a worldwide announcement that humanity has caused cosmic imbalance. The solution? The Survival's Game: Kill or Be Killed. Every human is now part of a system-based game, where life, wealth, and power are transferred upon murder. When the clock strikes 12:00, the game begins, and Akira, pushed past the ultimate breaking point by Sakura’s final insult, snaps. The boy who endured a year of silent agony transforms into Tanaka Akira, the Born Assassin, claiming the first bloody kills of the new world. Now, with a terrifying new skill—Soul Collector—Akira has one insane goal: amass one million souls to bring back the person, who broke him. Surrounded by elite classmates who are now ruthless competitors—Akira must conquer the very system designed to destroy him. His life is the price, and his redemption is a twisted act of resurrection.

Long ago, the earth was a perfect symphony of life, until human greed shattered the fragments of the Aether Stone—the magical core that sustained the world’s rotation. In an instant, time itself seemed to cease its ticking. The world was torn asunder; one half scorched to ashes by a relentless sun, while the other was trapped in an eternal frozen night beneath the shroud of the Blood Red Moon. In the frozen half of the world, every falling snowflake is a tear of regret for those who destroyed the earth. The remnants of humanity now seek refuge behind the Great Wall of PETERUM-MAN, a technological fortress harboring dark secrets behind every hiss of its steam engines. Nugia (Subject 009), an innocent youth, awakens with no memories. He is trained to become an instrument of demise, an emotionless Assassin under the iron fist of Lord Vier. Yet, within his veins pulses a primordial power known as the blue-Azure Sasmita—an anomaly capable of halting the very flow of time. Alongside his comrades in fate, Nugia is ensnared in a vortex of betrayal and horrific human experimentation. As the trails of his past begin to unravel through his mother’s secret recordings, Nugia realizes he is no mere soldier. He is the Heir of Sasmita, the ultimate key to reuniting the nine fragments of the Aether Stone. Will Nugia be able to rewind a dead world? Or will he crumble before the true dawn can ever shine upon the earth once more? "When this symphony is whole, the earth shall turn again. Yet beware, for the sunlight sometimes bears a curse far worse than the darkness."
