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 air was thick with the aftermath of battle. The training field—once an arena for simple sparring matches—was now a crater-ridden warzone. Blackened scars of Rift energy crackled across the ground, a reminder of the fight that had just taken place.

Kai remained frozen, staring at his own hands. His blade had vanished, his body felt drained, and worst of all…

He had felt something else inside him when the Rift had opened.

Luna approached cautiously, still gripping her arcane spear. "Kai."

He exhaled, shaking himself out of his daze. "Yeah, I'm good. Just… processing."

Before Luna could press him further—

A new alarm blared across the academy.

"WARNING! HIGH-THREAT HELLION DETECTED!"

Both of them turned just as a massive Rift split open in the sky above the academy.

From the depths of the dark swirling void, a Hellion unlike any before descended.

It was twice the size of the others, its body covered in obsidian armor, glowing red cracks running along its form like magma. But what truly set it apart—

And in its right hand, it carried a blade.

The creature slowly lifted its head, revealing its piercing crimson eyes, filled not with mindless rage like the others—

Luna felt a chill crawl up her spine. "This one's different."

Kai tightened his fists, his energy flickering weakly. "Yeah… and I don't like it."

The Hellion slowly raised its sword, pointing it directly at Kai.

Luna's breath caught. It knows about him?

The Hellion's voice was deep, distorted, but clear. Unlike the other Hellions, this one… spoke with purpose.

"You are unbalanced. You are unstable. You are an error."

Kai narrowed his eyes. "Okay, that's rude."

The Hellion's blade crackled with dark energy, a corrupted form of Rift power swirling around it.

"I am Varzon, Commander of the Hellion Legion. And I will erase you."

With a single step, the air cracked apart—

Kai barely had time to dodge before Varzon's blade crashed into the ground where he stood, splitting the earth apart.

The shockwave sent Kai hurtling backward, slamming into the academy walls.

Luna summoned a barrier, but before she could react—Varzon was already in front of her.

She swung her spear, but he caught it with his bare hand.

Varzon's grip tightened, and with one swift movement, he shattered the spear's energy, sending Luna flying across the battlefield.

She crashed into the rubble, coughing, trying to push herself up. Too fast… he's too fast!

Varzon turned his attention back to Kai.

"Your kind is an aberration. The Rift rejects you."

Kai groaned, shaking off the impact. "Yeah? Well, I reject your ugly face, so I guess we're even."

Despite his usual sarcasm, he knew this fight was different.

Varzon wasn't like the other Hellions. He wasn't just a creature born from the Rift—

He was a soldier. A warrior. A commander.

Luna stumbled to her feet. "Kai! We can't fight this thing alone!"

Kai wiped the blood from his lip, standing tall. "Yeah, well…"

He summoned his energy blade again—but it flickered weakly.

And this time—Kai wasn't sure if he could stop him.
