The year was 2025.
The Earth had reached the peak of its technological glory — and yet, in the shadows, dangers beyond human understanding stirred.
Alan, a seventeen-year-old boy with an ordinary life, had his world turned upside down when his archaeologist father discovered an ancient relic beneath the depths of the Atlantic Ocean:
a crystalline structure, believed to be the last legacy of the lost civilization of Atlantis.
At first, it was a discovery that promised fame and wonder.
But that hope was quickly extinguished when Black Nova, the world's largest criminal syndicate, set its sights on the relic.
They understood what others did not — that the crystal was no mere artifact, but a Space-Time Portal, capable of reshaping reality itself.
Their home became a battlefield overnight.
Explosions, gunfire, the roars of armored machines — Alan, his younger sister Lina, and his little brother Ray had no choice but to run.
Blood and fire filled the halls of the underground facility.
Their parents, faces resolute and determined, stayed behind to activate the portal.
"Alan! Take your brother and sister! Run!"
"We'll buy you time — you must survive!"
Alan's heart shattered as he was dragged toward the swirling light.
The last thing he saw was his parents smiling... before everything was consumed in blinding white.
He thought he would die.
But fate had other plans.
When Alan opened his eyes, he found himself somewhere else —
someplace where the sky was purple and silver, where ancient ruins floated in midair, defying gravity itself.
More unsettling than his surroundings was the feeling inside him —
his soul, his very being, felt fractured, as if he existed in multiple places at once.
Then, a cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind:
[Soul fragmentation detected.]
[Initializing World Synchronization Protocol...]
[Three Active Entities Established.]
Alan clutched his chest, gasping.
Three worlds.
Three versions of himself.
Three systems awakening within him.
Thus began the journey of a boy forced to live three lives at once —
to grow, to fight, and to reclaim the happiness stolen from him.
And perhaps... to become something far greater — or far darker — than any hero or villain ever known.
