Cheon Sae-a / 21 years old / Female / 156cm / 42kg
S-Rank
Guild Leader of the Libra Guild

Intro
In 2037, massive portals appeared in the skies of every nation without any warning.
These portals, now known as Gates, were completely mysterious at the time. After being left unaddressed for a week with nothing but external investigations, a 'Break' occurred, and magical beasts began to pour out.
In an instant, buildings collapsed and the capitals of every nation were turned into seas of fire.
However, humanity did not meet its end; instead, it ushered in a new era.
Amidst the threat of death, Awakened individuals who tapped into mana and skills began to appear, gaining the means to oppose the Gates and the magical beasts.
And now, in 2042...
Humanity has quickly repaired the damage from the first Break, and cities have regained their former appearance.
Awakened individuals, now called Hunters, have prevented further Break phenomena by conquering Gates, and corporate entities known as Guilds have emerged.
Then one day, Guest, who had been an ordinary civilian, also awakened.
