Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse.

Countless technologies and advances had been lost to time as the Specters, horrifying beings with terrifying powers, arrived and destroyed the world.

Over the coming thousands of years, humanity had built itself up but always died again.

Nobody remembers the past.

Nobody remembers what humanity had once accomplished.

Now, everyone is living in a world where the Specters reign supreme.

-----

A boy with amnesia woke up in the middle of the Dregs, the worst part of Crimson Fungus City.

The boy grows up and manages to become strong enough to pass an exam for one of the most prestigious jobs in existence, a Zephyx Extractor, someone that can harvest the powers of Specters.

Sadly, he had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position.

But then, a mysterious man visits him.

And his luck finally turns around.

Kill the Sun

"I had a lot of fun today! Sorry for taking up your time," Julian said with a friendly smile.

"No problem, you helped me a lot!" Nick said with a grin.

After Nick had told Julian about his issues, Julian talked with Nick for a couple of hours about what to do.

Julian told Nick that he was trying to atone for something that couldn't be atoned for.

Nick was still young, and he hadn't been ready for such a big responsibility.

Julian said that Nick had to live his own life and that Horua's fate was because Wyntor hadn't properly informed Nick about everything.

After all, if Wyntor had told Nick about what would happen if Horua refused to become an Extractor after seeing the Dreamer, Nick wouldn't have made Horua sign the contract, right?

Therefore, Nick wasn't the one at fault.

So, why was Nick trying to atone for something that wasn't his fault?
