SETOGIWA: A World On The Brink (Part 1)

Deafening

Shinjuku Mountain tops at 10 pm.
Yukashika looks into the night sky with a blank expression. He thinks to himself, looking at the stars,
"Billions of stars, those could each represent someone. They could all represent every chance I've had in life. Sometimes I wonder if I wasn't raised in that facility. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if I didn't have a syneji. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to have a normal life. Over and over, I fight so hard for something just for it to endlessly crash on me, but yet on these mountain tops, I feel at peace, even when I know it's only temporary. The only thing that has ever brought joy to me is killing syneji artists, but even better is a strong one to my match."

Day 8 Zenatori's Dorm: 10:12 am
Zenatori lay motionless on his bed. he thought to himself,
"You know this school life isn't too bad, we can still leave campus whenever we want. And I have some cute girls who talk to me."

Zenatori gets up to dress himself and to think on the side of his bed.
"So many things have happened, these past couple of days. First, I almost died and apparently half of Bunkyo Tokyo is destoryed by an S-Grade Automorph. I wonder if Tsuyo Hayoku could beat that strong guy, the king of the millennia, was it? I mean, he said he was the strongest there was, but ever?"

Zenatori walks to the rotunda and sees Tsuyo Hayoku. 
"Good morning, Zenatori-kun," said Hayoku.

Zenatori says,
"Who exactly is the King of the Millenia?"

Hayoku suddenly freezes and stares sharply,
"Interesting question to start off the morning. His name is Yukashika, but he was mostly called. 
Sedainoshi instead his actual name. He was seen as a God to everyone including normal civilians, he killed almost every Syneji Artist in the Okina generation. Due to his unknown method of immortality the most everyone could do was seal him into 4 fragments of his soul known as the Sedai Soul Seals."

Zenatori says,
"Was he really that powerful?"

Tsuyo Hayoku coldly says,
"If he were to somehow reincarnate at his full strength, he would most definitely wipe out this whole generation without too much difficulty. Except me, of course."

"Welp, I'm gonna go to Shibuya, I'll see you tomorrow or something."

Zenatori walks away and checks the live power rankings for his class.

A World on the Brink is an epic narrative full of high-stakes battles, deep emotional struggles, and the exploration of the human condition through the lens of supernatural power. Zenatori’s journey from an ordinary high school student to a powerful Syneji Artist is filled with moments of triumph, heartbreak, and profound realizations about the world and his place in it. As Zenatori continues to confront ever-stronger enemies and the mysteries of the Syneji, the fate of the world—and his own soul—hangs in the balance.
