Chapter 4: The One Who Devours The All
A Devastated World, plunged into endless war.
War shouts, filled with boundless killing intent and deep hatred echoed across the battlefield as hundreds of millions of soldiers fought.
People fell one after another, and before their bodies could be retrieved and buried honorably for fighting in the war, new soldiers rushed in to take their place—trampling the dead underfoot, crushing them into a bloody mess, and turning them into nourishment for the soil, dyeing it a deep blood-red.
Broken limbs, mangled flesh, and half-shattered bodies clad in armor were scattered everywhere, but amidst a war involving hundreds of millions, such scenes appeared insignificant.
As the soldiers fought, they couldn’t help but glance at the sky from time to time.
Another war—far more terrifying than the one taking place on the ground—was raging above.
The number of combatants in the sky was far fewer than those on land, but the destruction they caused across the heavens was far greater than what the hundreds of millions below could ever dream of achieving.
The sky was mostly obscured by the blood mist rising from the corpses of fallen soldiers, but even through the red haze, those on the ground could see colossal beasts moving above, destroying everything in their path.
From time to time, enormous bodies crashed down from the sky, crushing tens of thousands of soldiers fighting on the ground, transforming the crash site into a desolate zone filled with the thick scent of blood and the presence of death.
ROAR!
Suddenly, from behind one of the ground armies, an earth-shaking roar erupted, and a gigantic figure—so massive that it reached into the heavens—emerged.
The figure’s form was so vast that even when soldiers raised their heads to look, they could not see its end.
