Chapter 101: Leveling up is the only way.
The Demon lost all reason and unleashed its domain, turning everything in its surroundings into one massive swamp. Everything melted inside the nightmarish cauldron, be it buildings, the obsidian, or the monster’s own spawn.
The smart ones knew to flee ahead of time, but many failed to do so, driven by the hunger for human flesh and Aether. Death came from the front and from the back yet all they could do was charge at the humans believing that’s all it would take to devour them.
All of them were slaves to those mad desires, but not all went about satisfying them the same way. The longer they survive, the more prey they consume. And the more prey they consume, the less clouded their minds become.
Hunting and devouring would still be their ultimate goal, but unlike before, the ways they could go about it would increase.
They could charge straight at the prey and try to dominate it, or they could keep their distance and hide in the shadows, watching as the humans lower their guard and waiting for the right moment.

Mark watched as Lara took care of the monster. After the message disappeared, he turned to the big Peace Keeper and asked "What are the Ranks for Awakened?"
Ben raised the thick index finger of his gauntlet-clad right hand and grinned.
"There are nine, of course. It starts with Dormant, and when one Awakens they become an Awakened, just like you!"
