Chapter 1: Who Could Have Predicted This Outcome? Part 1
In the modern world, since the early 2000s, all nations signed a law on ceasefire. Humanity chose the path of development and the protection of international law.
By doing so, they sought to attain happiness without wars and foolish ideals.
However, after the Asiatic war in Japan ended in 2026, people began to doubt the righteousness of a world without wars.
That same year, another war erupted. For the first time, we, mere mortals, witnessed monsters with supernatural abilities.
The second war not between humans—it was a war for survival against monsters.
Red creatures, appearing from various corners of the Eastern world, attacked the innocent without hesitation. They fed on our blood, devoured our flesh in tons, while we desperately searched for a way to save our kind.
We called them demons.
With each blood-soaked month that passed, we noticed that these demons were evolving. The bodies of the first demons resembled monstrous mixtures of beasts, with shreds of flesh hanging from them, empty eye sockets oozing black liquid, and mouths filled with hundreds of uneven teeth.
From bloodthirsty, skinless beasts with four legs, they soon began to develop intelligence. One day, news spread across the world about the first demon that could walk on two legs, though its stance and hands were still clumsy.
At the time, our only salvation was rockets and bombs packed with overwhelming amounts of TNT. Humans took their chances, which is why there were no intact cities left on the outskirts of the Republic of Korea.
These places reeked of rotting flesh. However, the remains of collapsed structures served as sealed gates, blocking other demons that lurked near the waters.
