Obinai never expected greatness.
Burdened by self-doubt and haunted by past traumas, Obinai’s life takes a drastic turn when cracks begin to form in the ground before Nurikabe—a colossal wall of unknown origin that has always separated humanity from what lies beyond. No one knows what’s on the other side. Most have stopped asking.
As horrifying experiences cling to him with growing intensity, Obinai is thrust into an unforgiving society where survival is conditional: either he masters essence at Elona Academy, or he is executed. The academy is no sanctuary—only a place where failure carries fatal consequences.
Amidst relentless training and harrowing visions, fragments of truth begin to surface. Not just about humanity, but about the world itself—its layered past, its conflicting stories, and its buried contradictions. More than one story exists. More than one truth. More than one lie.
And as the veil between worlds grows thin, Obinai must confront the darkness that stirs within him… and choose whether to embrace his fate, or be devoured by it.
