The Legendaries Awaken
The World Changed Overnight,
Without warning, portals from other realms tore through the sky, opening gateways to nightmarish creatures that threatened to wipe out humanity. Cities burned. Nations crumbled. The monstrous invaders—ranging from grotesque goblins to towering beasts—massacred everything in their path.
Amidst the chaos, a new force emerged: The Awakened—humans who mysteriously gained supernatural abilities in response to the invasion. Light burst from their bodies, fire ignited in their palms, water coiled into deadly spears, winds howled at their command, shadows shifted with their will. These resemble as Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light, and Darkness—became humanity’s last hope against extinction.
Kai Jin.
A cold, intelligent high school student from Korea, Kai had long abandoned the idea of relying on others. Orphaned at a young age, he grew up alone in a modest apartment, surviving through sheer will and independence. His past trauma left him emotionally closed off, but beneath his calm, detached exterior, a fire burned—a refusal to ever be powerless again.
Then, the portals opened, and his world turned upside down.
The night was eerily silent.
Kai sat in his dimly lit apartment, eyes locked on his Television screen. The news was flooded with reports of strange anomalies appearing across the globe—massive gates hovering in the sky, creatures emerging from their depths. Some called it a phenomenon. Others called it the end of the world.
Then—
Scratch. Scratch.
A faint noise echoed from the hallway outside his door.
Kai frowned. His neighborhood was quiet at night—too quiet for random footsteps.
Then—
BAM!
The apartment door slammed open.
A goblin. Small, grotesque, with sickly green skin, jagged teeth, and glowing red eyes. It sniffed the air, its sharp claws twitching in anticipation.
Kai’s breath hitched. His mind raced. He had no weapons. No powers. Nothing but his instincts.
Move. Now.
The goblin lunged.
Kai grabbed the closest thing within reach—a wooden chair—and swung it with all his strength.The impact sent the creature stumbling backward, snarling in rage.
His heart pounded. His hands trembled, but he forced himself to stay steady. He couldn’t afford to freeze. He had to kill it.
Spotting a kitchen knife on the counter, he dove for it—just as the goblin recovered and charged again. At the last second, he twisted his body, dodging its claws, and in one swift motion—
STAB!
The knife sank into the goblin’s skull. It shrieked, its body convulsing violently before collapsing lifelessly to the floor.
Kai stood there, panting. His clothes were splattered with dark, sticky blood. The room reeked of iron and death.
Then—
Ding!
A floating, translucent system window appeared before his eyes.
[Awakening Process Complete.] [Congratulations!]
[You have awakened.]
Kai’s eyes widened. His nightmare had just begun.
