Reluctant OP SSS Rank

**In a world where power is measured in destruction...** **Kairos "Kai" Valtaris** wants one thing: a normal life. As the holder of an unstable **SSS-Rank Aura Core** capable of rewriting reality itself, he's spent years hiding his abilities behind a mask of laziness at **Astral Peak Academy**, a prestigious training ground for superpowered soldiers. But when a routine monster drill goes catastrophically wrong, Kai unconsciously unleashes his power—catching the attention of both the ruthless **World Defense Order (WDO)** and the academy's top student, **Lysandra Solfrost**. **Lys**, a disciplined ice-wielder with secrets of her own, is assigned to monitor Kai under orders from her father—the WDO's lead scientist. What begins as a surveillance mission soon spirals into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse as the two uncover the WDO's horrifying experiments: **Project Zero Paradox**, an initiative to weaponize students like Kai by force. **As their reluctant partnership deepens:** - Kai's **corrupted core** threatens to consume him - Lys's **loyalty is tested** when she discovers her own past is a lie - The return of Kai's brother **Dran**, a rogue SSS-Rank with a vendetta, ignites a three-way war **By the season's explosive finale**, Kai and Lys become fugitives, Mio—Kai's childhood friend—is turned into a WDO puppet, and the revelation of **Phase 2** sets the stage for global catastrophe.
