Perfect. Here's the beginning of Chapter 1: "The Protagonist" — with a manhwa-style panel breakdown, worldbuilding, and buildup for Aman.

Chapter 1: The Protagonist
Panel 1: Wide shot of a massive, futuristic academy—gates opening as students wearing combat uniforms enter.
Narration:
"Ravindra Academy for Superhuman Combat"—the most prestigious hunter academy in the Eastern World.
Panel 2: Inside the academy's main plaza. Holographic screens float showing daily gate stats, monster sightings, and S-rank hunters.
Narration:
This is where the next generation of dungeon conquerors are forged. Some are born strong… others claw their way up.
Panel 3: Close-up of a student's feet walking alone, shadow trailing behind him.
Panel 4: Zoom in—Aman. Simple uniform. Calm eyes. Slight smile. Students whisper as he passes.
Student A (whispering):
"Hey, that's Aman… the gate survivor, right?"
Student B:
"Yeah. The only one who made it out alive from the Red Zone Dungeon last year…"
Panel 5: Aman sits quietly in class. Everyone around him seems powerful, flashy, loud.
Narration:
Aman doesn't talk much. Doesn't brag. Doesn't fight in training duels. But those who know… avoid crossing him.

[Flashback Panel: One year ago — Red Zone Dungeon]
Panel 6: Corpses of students scattered. Aman, bloodied, stands alone with a broken sword and glowing eyes.
Narration:
The monsters didn't scare him. The betrayal did.

[Back to present]
Panel 7: A new teacher enters the class—young, serious, holding a clipboard.
Teacher:
"Class 1-A. Today's gate simulation will be a ranked group trial. You'll be assigned based on compatibility."
*Panel 8: Students react with excitement. Aman just closes his eyes.
