Only those who win will survive the calamity of extinction.

When mankind was at its lowest point,

The 7 wonders appear.

Absolute victory wasn't certain.

But mankind gained the power to survive.

Against the gods

Against the elf's

Against the ancient immortals

Against the primordial

Against the demons

Humanity survived countless eons because of the seven wonders.

Each of the seven wonders represents the seven heavenly virtues.

With the world's grace, for every fight, for every loss, they stand up.

And that's how they became a legend in the last battle.

And me?

The youngest brother of the seven wonders

Yes, all of them are blood-related, with each of them having great talents and great powers.

While me? I can't wield mana, qi, aura, or even a sword; it's like they reject me.

The only reason I survived was because of my awakened ability.

Awakened: Forbidden runes

Effect: runes of incredible powers are at your disposal, and a language of the unknown is within your grasp.

At first it's quite overpowered, but what's the problem? I need mana to use it, and I barely have any mana, so I can only use some low-tier runes and some language of the elves to survive till this day.

Oh, and the help of my siblings, I guess.

Because of the prestige of my siblings, I'm being served like royalty.

But surviving every battle for the past 100 years keeps getting hard.

My siblings already died multiple times, yet I remained alive.

One of my siblings got some revival power, so they keep reviving to fight, but me, I'm just an extra at the battleground.

It's all thanks to my second ability that I even survived for 100 years.

Awakened: Neverending youth

Effect: your prime is your forever form; age is just a number to you. Your mental will also remain at your prime wound, or damaged will be deleted in a day, and your body resets to your peak state every day.

Yes, this is the reason I survived, but if it gets demolished, I don't think I'm surviving that, but this helped me a lot.

I even think my siblings forgot about me for the last 100 years; not one of them visited me.

Well, I guess they're busy…

50 years later

The climax of the battle was approaching, and humanity was losing.

The 7 wonders have long been the 3 wonders. New heroes often appeared, but as quickly as they came, they faded; the power of the enemies was just too strong for them to grow.

As humanity was nearing its extinction, the wizard of time disappeared from the battlefield.

"What?" I was surprised my brother Ren appeared in front of me.

"Why… are you here? Brother, what about the battlefield?" I asked, completely forgetting that the battlefield was already gone, as the last fort was all that was left.

"Leyn, listen," Ren said seriously as he looked at Leyn's eyes.

"I'll tell you this, so I hope you listen well."

"Yes."

"Humanity is losing, and we aren't even half as strong as the others, so we seven came up with a solution," he said as he looked at Leyn.

"Y… yes?" Leyn was confused; what was he going to do anyway?

"Listen, Leyn, your forbidden ability rune is the key to this battle with your sister. Sacrifice to gain information to win the war; the world responded with the rune."

"And with all the information we gathered, we learned that before the era of living beings, a primal being who was neither alive nor dead used a forbidden rune as a language, and that language is the world's mana flow."

"In short terms, your ability is the key to awakening all of humanity's limits, so we entrust you to save humankind."
