Chapter 1 - 1: Where It All Began:Luminari Academy
_YEAR 3224, AERTHYS, CALONIA. February 3rd, 3225. 7:30 AM_
On this Monday morning. The sun rose with a gentle smile, even though Cerulean had experienced drastic changes; it stood there unaffected, watching the people it shone on. Life is just like a fleeting moment. The more you try to hold onto your life, the closer you get to losing it.
A black Rolls-Royce car cruised downtown at an average speed. Suddenly, the black Rolls-Royce car veered toward a skyscraper with the name "Luminari Academy" engraved on top.
The black car stopped further from the entrance of the skyscraper which was filled with crowd. A fifteen-year-old boy, with striking features of blonde coily hair and blonde eyes filled emerged. He wore a white shirt, black jean trousers, and black sneakers. His Royce-Rolls car stood out in the crowd, a symbol of his family wealth and status.
Just then, fifteen-year-old green-haired boy popped out of nowhere, hitting Blum on the head, "As expected of Mummy's son, you arrived here in a Rolls-Royce car."
"Ming, you've arrived. I thought I got here first." Song Blum was surprised by the sight of his friend. "Anyways I came second" Song Blum added
"Nah, you're wrong. You came..."
"Blum..." A black-haired young girl waved at both of them.
"....last" Ming Locke completed his sentence
Blum face fell, his mouth pursed in defeat "I know, no need to spit it out" he said, his voice laced with resignation.
Ming Locke snickered, "Don't forget, you have to follow our orders for a week."
Blum replied, "I know, I know. So, any news from them?"
Ming Locke responded, "Nah, haven't heard anything from them, dude."
Blum corrected him, "I told you to stop calling me that; I have a name given by my parents."
Ming Locke teased, "Yeah, I get it, Mummy's child."
"Do you why they picked this place as the location for our awakening, because all I can see here is this skyscraper and forest all round it" Blum asked, bothered by this.
"You are asking me, how do you expect me to know? I am not the instructor nor a god that knows about it" Ming mercilessly replied Blum.
Blum who heard this sulked, "Bro, you are too harsh. Isn't it just a question?"
"Yh, I know, but sometimes you just ask some meaningless questions. You know your background is greater than mine, since you didn't know, how do you expect me to know?"
Blum who heard this friends word, scratched his hand, embarrassed by this. "Whatever..." He said, raising his head to look at the sun that stood high, silently watching Cerulean.
Isn't it lonely? he thought. Staying so high alone, just watching the world for thousands of years, millions of years. This question lingered in Song Blum's mind.

Thousands of years ago, "Cerulean" experienced an apocalypse that caused devastating changes to the entire planet. Plants grew larger than their usual size, and animals appeared more menacing and threatening. The planet expanded, and strange portals appeared in different areas of Cerulean, unleashing numerous strange beasts that caused chaos.
This day exposed humanity's conniving behavior: lovers betrayed and forsake their partners, and parents abandoned their children. Humans gave these strange beasts the general name "Kolvoids." While fleeing in fear, some thought of countermeasures to fight the Kolvoids, while others considered leaving this hellish world.
As the human population dwindled, re
"Who are you looking for?" They asked, noticing Rose's eyes darting through the crowd. But she brushed them off, leaving the guys in shock.
"Excuse me..." A voice filled with malice startled the three of them.
