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

Nick scratched the back of his head.

"I mean, I can see where you are coming from, but there isn't really much I can do about that," he said.

"I couldn't have known about this ambush. If I had known about that, I would have brought you two with me."

At that point, Nick furrowed his brows.

A thought had appeared inside his mind.

Yes, he would have brought Jenny and Trevor with him, but…

Would that have actually improved the result?

With Nick constantly running around, the enemy couldn't fully make use of their power, but if Jenny and Trevor were there, they could.

The enemy would have probably killed Jenny and Trevor with their overwhelming numbers advantage, and since Nick would have realized the danger, he would have probably become extremely nervous, which might have resulted in him attacking an enemy without being certain that he could kill them.
