The International Mana Management Organization decides to classify all monsters according to the degree of threat to human peace as follows.

「9th tier: Monsters that pollute the environment or cause plague.

Tier 8: Monsters that cause physical damage to daily life.

7th Tier: A monster that commits a serious crime equivalent to robbery, murder, or rape.

6th Tier: Monsters that paralyze the city administration in individual or group units. Or a monster that threatens human territory.

5th Tier: A monster that paralyzes city administration in units of individuals or groups. Or a monster with a threat equivalent to that.

4th Tier: A monster that manages a cluster of monsters. Or a monster that domesticates humans. Or a monster that threatens the prosperity of mankind.

3rd Tier: A monster that paralyzes national administration as a single entity and causes damage equivalent to a disaster.

2nd Tier: Monsters that, as a single entity, paralyze the national administration and cause catastrophic damage.

1st Tier: A monster that poses a threat to the survival of mankind as a single entity.”

Run away!

Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh-!!

mom! mom! Uh heh heh….

Save me!

Fear was contagious in an instant.

People were all running down the road, losing their minds.

Families who had not yet gotten out of the car were completely frozen. A stiff atmosphere flowed in the car as if he had forgotten to breathe.

Get out of the way you bastard!

Don’t leave the car!

Do you want to see everyone fall behind!?

What are the players doing!

these bastards! What if you run away too!

If only you want to live, everything!? Get over it quickly!

Mom~! where is mama!

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…!!

Eunha, who witnessed what was happening right in front of her eyes, had no choice but to admit that her uneasy premonition was correct.

It was all futile.

I tried to delay the time by forcefully inducing the other direction and saying that I would go to the bathroom in the middle. They even drilled holes in the wheels.

However, the future did not change.

No matter how much time passed, the radio was only broadcasting traffic jams on Seongsan Bridge. I couldn’t find any news that the Kraken had appeared.

So, on the one hand, Eun-ha had an optimistic thought that something he did not know would change the future and that the Kraken’s appearance did not come true.

However, fate was replaying the same scene as the day he lost his family as if to ridicule his efforts.

The incident happened suddenly only when the family reached the middle of the bridge.

As if fate can’t be changed.

A monster with a hideous appearance that seems to embody human despair.

Kraken, a disaster/disaster-class monster that falls under the third tier.

There was no sign of anything…

He really suddenly lifted his huge body out of the water.

The players escorting the road appeared without any warning, without even noticing the third tier mana.

That’s why Kraken’s camouflage was perfect. Even he, who had been sensing mana since entering Seongsandaegyo Bridge, couldn’t follow him until he came up from the river.

Among the players, there is no one strong enough to face the Kraken.

Eunha bit her lip as she watched the players lose their fighting spirit and run away.

The skill of the players who repaired the Seongsan Bridge was usually E or D grade. At least the player leading the party was C-class, but it was absurdly insufficient to deal with the third-tier monsters.

Later, Kraken was a monster that was demoted to the 4th tier due to the quality of the players when he graduated from the academy, but the fact that he was a monster with the power to paralyze the city administration and threaten the prosperity of mankind at least did not change.

For the players gathered at the scene, at most the 5th tier monsters were the limit. It was an extremely insufficient

power to deal with the 4th hierarchy.

Knowing their skills, they also prioritized dealing with monsters climbing up the bridge or evacuating people.

These were also veteran players who could keep their cool. More than half of the players fell into a panic, forgot their duties and were busy taking their backs.

…Let’s get off quickly. It’s crowded outside, so be careful getting off.

The father, who came to his senses belatedly, opened his mouth.

…are you okay. trust me dad nothing will happen

…yes.

like brainwashing.

My father’s eyes in the rearview mirror couldn’t hide his agitation.

Even so, the father was aware of the fact that even the family members would tremble with anxiety if he showed his emotions outwardly.

I had to hide my agitation even with a bluff.

There was no way my mother didn’t know that.

Mother put her hand on top of Father’s hand, which was stiff with the side brake. Then he deliberately spoke in the brightest voice possible.

Guys, stay calm and get out of the car. Players will protect you, so don’t worry too much. Don’t panic.

Eunha, Eunah, should I hold your hand? Even Eun-ah, you must never let go of Eun-ha’s hand.

ok dad I will be watching my sister.

Eunha, you really can’t let go of my hand. Do you have to hold onto my sister’s hand? please.

yes sister

Eun-ah held Eun-ha’s hand as if she wouldn’t let go.

She was like her father. Even if he didn’t try to show it on the outside, the trembling was transmitted from the hand he was holding.

Laugh… Tea! uh?

be careful sister

But she was still young and young. When she got out of the car, her legs gave out and she collapsed to the ground.

uh huh why doesn’t it happen I have to get up…

My sister…

tries to get up somehow, but every time Eun-ah gets tired and ends up on her knees.

She was on the verge of tears as her body did not move as she intended.

I’ll take your sweetheart with me. Eunha, can you walk?

Yes I can walk, Dad. please sister

dad i’m fine can wake up alone

Yes, Dad knows that Eun-ah is okay too. Dad wants to hug Eun-ah.

I’m really fine…

Eun-ah tried to hold back the tears somehow.

But when his father picked him up, he couldn’t hold back his tears and buried his face in his shoulder.

It was an unbearable fear for the now 10-year-old.

What are you doing without evacuating! You’ll die if you stay there!

It’s this way! Stay calm and come this way!

Group C! You guys take care of the guys coming up on the bridge! If they block the road, there’s no way!

hey fuck! You’re not doing your job right! Don’t keep your mind straight!?

Please support. …I want support, you bastard! It won’t come out right away, what are you doing!

Just in time, the players were pulling away from the lead.

The Eunhae family followed them and moved their feet.

be careful!

Wow…!

Wow!

The player, who was running to secure a way to escape, collapsed.

A harpoon had been pierced through the player’s side before he knew it. It was thrown by a monster that stepped on the opposite guardrail and climbed up.

A 7th tier monster diver.

A monster with an amphibian-like appearance and skin covered in blue slime pulled out a harpoon.

Ahhh…!

The player’s face slowly contorted as he looked down at the hole in his abdomen.

His words, which denied the unbelievable reality, were very short.

The monster that glanced back had completely cut off its breath with the harpoon it was holding.

fuck! Hurry up and stick here!

therapy! Is there anyone who can use healing magic!?

What are so many of these guys!

It was a crucible of confusion.

Mana fluctuates greatly depending on emotions. The mana shed by people in panic is ubiquitous without dissipation.

And monsters are attracted by the ubiquitous mana.

The divers jumped out of the river and began to occupy the escape route the players had made.

Those who were stunned and fled lost their lives.

Some, terrified, did not even know that their heads had fallen, and fell over while running, some were brutally eaten, and others were dragged down the railing. Finally, some drowned and struggled, turning the river red.

Guys! Do you believe Dad!? Daddy will protect you no matter what! Don’t look back, just run forward!

It’s not long. If I run a little more… I can get off my legs… Let’s be patient until then. huh? Eunah and Eunha can do it, right?

Fathers and mothers run away by squeezing between cars and people.

Holding her mother’s hand and running, Eun-ha looked around to find a safe way. Then he sensed the monster’s mana from the vehicle in front.

Watch out Dad!

Almost at the same time as Eunha shouted, the father quickly lifted his leg.

If he had been a little late, he could have been bitten on his ankle by a monster crawling out from under the vehicle.

It was a situation where life could come and go in an instant.

I had to come to my senses.

Moreover, he was holding Eun-ah.

Don’t go that way, let’s go that way! keep running!

While the father shouted, the galaxy that grabbed and led the mother pointed to the escape route the players had pierced.

My father started running again in the lead, and my mother followed with bated breath.

I ran and ran, ignoring the constant screams.

Back then,

it was crazy—!!

Kyaaak-!!

oh oh oh fuck-!!

Asphalt-paved roads shook.

only once. It was only once.

The moment the Kraken decided to attack, the pillar supporting the bridge collapsed and the road tilted.

People lost their balance and fell, and those who were running near the railing fell straight down the bridge.

Fuck….

Someone barely spoke at the situation that happened in an instant.

Car bodies rolling down from the front as if being swept away by waves.

I couldn’t help but lose my mind at the sight of a small object that was visible from afar, increasing in volume like a snowball.

run away-!!

Eunha screamed.

However, there were only a few people who regained consciousness from the fear of approaching death as a high tide.

Guardian-!!

Afterwards, the players rallied at the sound of someone shouting.

The guardians carrying the shields unfolded their shields all at once as if they had come together.

Whoa…!

They couldn’t afford all of them.

Each time a wave passed and another wave overlapped it, the protective shield shook greatly.

Cracks began to form where the impact was concentrated, and the monsters that were being born even at this moment rushed in without giving any gap.

Just hold on a little longer…!

Flames burning the entire bridge.

A series of explosions.

Bridge starting to collapse.

The father raised his head from hell and comforted the family.

The father, who confirmed that the family was safe, looked relieved, but it was too early to be relieved.

Despair still lurked around.

In order to endure Hell, the Guardians consumed all their mana and monsters were filling the roads.
