Atea was sitting in a dark alley while hugging herself. She had stayed like this for three whole days. Her whole body was thin and weak as she had not eaten anything decent for many many days. She was only 15 years old and now she was feeling a crushing despair.

Her father and mother both were ability holders and were fighting in the frontlines to save the other Utayis. But just four days ago a massive Tyrant raid happened on the city where she was staying and the city was destroyed in almost no time.

Her father and mother both were killed in that raid. She would also have died but the help from other Utayi cities arrived at time and was able to save her life. But without her loving father and mother, Atea was feeling lost and had no idea what she should do with her life next.

She knew that just staying like this was not a solution. She needed to stand back up and do something to support the Utayi race. She did not have any kind of ability. But she could work in the farms to produce food for the brave ability users like her mom and dad who were regularly fighting in the frontlines to defend the cities from the monsters.

Atea knew all that but she was still not able to move her body. She was just way too sad. At the end of the day, she was just a little girl and this world nearing its end was just way too cruel for her pure self.

But Atea's mind suddenly blanked out for a moment and she found herself in the middle of a beautiful garden. This was an unbelievable scene which could only be seen in the picture books. That was because after the apocalypse started most of the flowers stopped blooming. So creating a garden with so many flowers was just impossible in this broken world.

There was a beautiful lady sitting on the bench in this beautiful garden. Atea had never seen someone as beautiful as her in her whole life. She created a heavenly picture while sitting in this amazing garden. Atea was unable to believe that something this beautiful could be real so she tried to pinch her chick to be sure. She felt the sharp pain and frowned.

Seeing her action, the beautiful lady gave her a kind smile and stood up from the bench. Then she came to Atea and hugged her. Atea felt the gentle warmth and she felt like crying. That kind lady started to pat her back and told Atea to not hold back and cry. Hearing this Atea did not resist her urge anymore and started crying for the sad things that had happened to her.

Noah was a 22 year old ability user fighting in the frontlines. His ability was not very useful for direct fighting and instead it was good for supporting others. But Noah was not a very social person so his coordination with his team was not very good. He was worried about this matter and was always trying to better himself.

Noah had lost his whole family when he was only 12 years old. Since then he had been burning with hatred for the terrible monsters and had completely devoted himself to getting rid of them from this world. He had faced off against many Tyrants without fear and supported many strong ability users. For his fearlessness, he was looked upon favorably by the higher ups but even they were surprised by how bad he was with groups.

Noah had been fighting against a group of powerful monsters just a few minutes ago. Fortunately his team had managed to defeat all of them without losing anyone. But three of the team members were badly injured. Noah knew that if he was able to co-operate a little bit better with his team members then it was very possible to prevent those injuries. So he was slightly blaming himself.

Currently he was sitting on top of a tower from where he could see the whole city and also the barren outside. This barren land had soaked up so much blood from both Utayis and Monsters that it had a deep reddish tint. Noah was lost in his thoughts while looking at this blood soaked slaughter land.

But suddenly Noah felt that his mind went blank for a moment and immediately after that he found himself in a different area. As an experienced fighter, he immediately took his battle stance and looked all round him. He was inside a very well decorated room filled with many expensive looking furniture. In his whole life Noah had never seen a room like this. Even the room of his commanding officer was not as luxurious even though he was at the very top of the Utayi race.

There were various weapons hanging on the walls and Noah's instincts told him that all of those weapons were dangerous, then he looked in front of him and looked at the extremely beautiful lady who was sitting on an expensive couch in a classy posture and was drinking tea with perfect manners. Noah had no idea who she was but he had a feeling that this lady was extremely powerful and he would not be able to do anything against her.

Seeing the worry in Noah, that beautiful lady gave him a reassuring smile and said in a gentle tone.

"Do not worry, I have no intention to harm you. I have a little proposal for you and only for that reason I have called you here. There is also no harm in rejecting my proposal. Only your memories of this place would be erased and you will be sent back to the same place where you were before coming here. So there is no need to be nervous."

Claris was standing in front of a hospital and was watching many injured people getting their treatment here. She was the daughter of a doctor working here. These people were injured while fighting against powerful monsters in order to save the city where she was staying.

Claris knew that these people were fighting to protect her and the whole city, so she should feel grateful toward them. Claris did feel some goodwill toward them but she was not sure if only that much good will was enough or not. Her mother had always told her that if she wished good for these brave people, then they would become stronger.

As a smart person, Claris knew that it was a lie. But it was such a beautiful lie that even Claris wanted to believe in it. So she wanted to cheer them on. But for as long as Claris could remember, she had never been able to feel many emotions. Sadness, anger, thankfulness, all of these were important emotions but Claris could only slightly feel any of them. She wanted to be worried about this abnormality but worryness was also not something that she was capable of strongly feeling.

As Claris was thinking about this, her mind went blank for a moment and she found herself in the middle of a simple room with a table and a few chairs. Three people were already in the room looking at her. Claris had no idea what was happening but she did not panic and just calmly observed everything.

Seeing this, the most beautiful person that she had ever seen gently called out to her and asked her to take a seat. Claris did what she was told as she felt that it was the right thing to do.

Now that all the candidates were here, it was time to save another world.
