In a fractured world forged from the ashes of two fallen ones, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction. The apocalypse known as The First Selection carved a new reality—one ruled by Ranks. Born from the blood of primordial beasts, the ranked carry power beyond comprehension. From E to SSS, strength dictates worth. The lowest crawl. The highest—SSS—are worshipped as gods.
At the heart of this cruel resurrection stands Amanda Vire, a former imperial researcher excommunicated for her obsession with demon blood experimentation. In her quest for the apex of human evolution, she creates the Belfrost Orphanage—a sanctuary for discarded children turned lab subjects. Her methods are brutal, her failures expendable.
Among these discarded souls is Glass, a poor peasant-born boy injected with demon blood, destined to awaken as a Triple S Ranker. But fate recoils. Instead, he falls—landing one step below as SSR, the rank of “the failed gods.”
Cast out into the cold after enduring Amanda’s torment, Glass survives in silence. His body holds forbidden instability, and his mind burns with quiet rage. Amanda, blind to the seeds of her undoing, pushes forward with ever more reckless experiments, leaving a trail of twisted remnants in her wake.
Until one day—a pair of crimson eyes stare back at her through the remnants of what she rejected. Not just a child… not just a failed ranker… but a living contradiction to her vision. A reflection she cannot erase. A force she may not survive
