In a world where the Black Hole Rift looms ominously over Earth, humanity is under constant threat from Hellions, monstrous beings that descend every seven days to wreak havoc. Society has adapted to this apocalyptic new reality, training elite fighters to combat the invaders while searching for a way to close the Rift for good.

Kai Takashi, a laid-back and sarcastic student at Sector 7 Academy, hides a secret—he possesses dual-class abilities, an anomaly that marks him as both E-Class (the weakest) and SSS-Class (the strongest). Though he plays the role of an underachiever, his raw power far surpasses what anyone expects.

Enter Luna Everhart, a brilliant and determined new transfer student from Sector 5, who immediately clashes with Kai’s carefree attitude. She sees him as an arrogant slacker, while he enjoys pushing her buttons. However, when an unexpected Hellion invasion strikes their city, the two are forced to work together, revealing Kai’s true hidden strength—a power even he doesn’t fully understand.

As the series unfolds, the Rift begins to evolve, changing the very fabric of reality. Hellions become stronger, more intelligent, and far deadlier. Clues surface about the existence of a hidden class beyond SSS—+++ Class, a power tied to the Rift’s origin. Meanwhile, two mysterious individuals, Dr. Elias Grant and Seraphina Vale, emerge, claiming to know the truth behind the Rift and its catastrophic effects.

Through intense battles, unexpected alliances, and the gradual unraveling of the Rift’s secrets, Kai and Luna must confront not just the enemies outside but also the growing connection between them. As their rivalry shifts into something deeper, they realize that their fate—and the fate of Earth—are entwined in ways they never imagined.

But with the Black Hole growing stronger and a Hellion commander leading an impending invasion, time is running out. Can Kai and Luna discover the truth behind the Rift before it’s too late? Or will humanity’s last defense fall before an unstoppable force?

The Black hole Chronicles: The Rift Awakens

The training field of Sector 7 Academy had turned into a warzone. The air shimmered with energy from Luna's magic and Kai's energy blade, clashing against the unnatural darkness of the Hellion.

The creature moved like smoke and shadow, dodging attacks before reforming instantly.

Luna gritted her teeth. "This thing doesn't have a solid form!"

Kai smirked, despite the sweat dripping down his temple. "Yeah, that's kinda annoying, huh?"

The Hellion let out a low, distorted growl, then raised its clawed hands. The air pressure shifted, and a sudden force slammed into both of them, sending them flying backward.

Kai skidded to a stop, coughing. "Okay. Ow."

Luna flipped back onto her feet. She quickly analyzed the creature's movements—it was studying them. Adapting. Waiting for an opening.

"It's intelligent," Luna said, gripping her spear. "More than any Hellion before."

Kai wiped the dirt off his jacket. "Great. Now they have brains? What's next, Hellion schools?"

Luna ignored his sarcasm. "If it's studying us, that means it has a weakness. We just have to find it."

She spun around just in time to see the creature reappear behind him, its claws already slashing forward.

Kai barely dodged, twisting his body as the attack tore through the ground where he had stood.

Luna didn't hesitate. She thrust her spear forward, its arcane glow intensifying. The moment her weapon made contact, something strange happened.

The Hellion shrank back—its form flickering erratically, as if the magic had disrupted it.

Kai noticed immediately. "So, light-based attacks work on it?"

Luna narrowed her eyes. "Seems like it."

Kai grinned. "Perfect. That means I just have to get creative."

He dashed forward, but instead of aiming for a direct hit, he faked an attack, causing the Hellion to dodge—right into Luna's range.

Luna launched a spear of energy, striking the creature square in the chest.

For the first time, the Hellion let out a piercing shriek. Its body convulsed, the shadowy energy rippling violently.

But before they could finish it off, the Hellion suddenly collapsed into itself, turning into a swirling black mass.

Luna's stomach dropped. "It's retreating."

Kai's eyes darkened. "No. It's reporting back."

They barely had a second to process before the dark mass vanished, dissolving into the air.

The fight was over. But this didn't feel like a victory.

Luna clutched her spear. "Something's coming, Kai. Something worse than before."

Kai exhaled, gripping his energy blade tightly. "Yeah… I feel it too."

Above them, the Black Hole Rift pulsed again, sending a ripple across the sky.

And for the first time, it spoke back.

"The beginning is over. Now comes the end."
