PROLOGUE

“When a world that stands opposite to Science reveals itself, will people truly accept it?” — Male Voice.

“Not entirely. But once the power of that world is revealed, everything will change.” — Female Voice.

“However, perhaps the greatest change will happen when both worlds begin to accept each other.” — Male & Female Voice.

The sound of footsteps echoed throughout the hallway.
From the distance, a man could be seen with a pale face and an exhausted expression.
He kept running from one end of the corridor to the other, until he finally stopped after noticing something in front of him…

“What the hell is this fog?! How much longer do I have to keep running like this, damn it?!”

“Everyone suddenly collapsed… What the hell is happening?!”

The fog spread rapidly, injuring and even killing the people around it.
But this was no ordinary fog. It was a foreign atmosphere that functioned like oxygen—though not a single human had realized it yet.

“Damn it… I’ve got no choice but to go through it!”

He charged straight into the fog.

In an instant, his body began to react. Breathing became difficult, and his heart felt as though it was being crushed from within…

But by the time he realized it, everything already seemed too late.
