Antherius**' atmosphere, which was no longer beautiful, made the people around the place only shed tears. Almost all residents became victims and died. Someone who believes that this incident is not a coincidence makes him constantly think about how to end all this. At night since 4 months the tragedy struck Antherius. Around the headquarters of the human protection organization, they were all busy with their respective jobs. Apart from that, Jake, who is one of the leaders of the organization, is holding a meeting with several other members. Those present are people who have been in the environment for a long time.

"I heard you sent some people to investigate? Have you gone mad! isn't all this supposed to be exposed to the public?" said one of the leaders of the organization, the person named Raimond.

"It's too dangerous if you leave this mission to outsiders," said Nathaniel who was none other than a member of the organization.

"You stupid. You guys, what can you really do? If we don't use them, we won't get that information," grumbled Daniel, who is none other than the deputy leader.

Their debate lasted long enough for the others to remain silent. Likewise with Jake who just sat there in silence looking at all of them who were there. His face that looked as if he was thinking about something made him seem calm for a long time. Finally, the meeting was over. Everyone in the room left the room and there was only Jake left.

"You're not going?" Daniel said to Jake who was still sitting.

"Yes. I'll go," said Jake who then rose from his seat to leave the room.

Daniel who felt there was something with Jake, just looked at him and then left the room too. As planned Mckena will go with the two of them to Eldelius. This time Mckena was busy tidying up his things and also arranging some of the weapons he would bring. Not only that, Mckena also brought some medicines that might be needed in an emergency. After everything was done, it wasn't long before Mckena got a call from someone.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Mckena. Is this you?"

"Yes. What is it?"

"What just happened? I heard that everyone in the hideout died without anyone knowing."

"Oh, that…"

"Can you tell me?"

"I think you can figure it out yourself. They did it."

"What? they should have had enough of blowing up the city."

"I'm not sure about that. But, who else if not them. Isn't there no group that hates humans anymore except them?"

"To tell with that. hear. You didn't have to come here."

"What do you mean? It can't be like that, it's already part of the mission. I can't undo it."

"Stupid! That is not what I mean."

"Then?"

Mckena who heard the last words from his phone not long after, put on surprised face.

From his mouth no longer uttered a word and just hung up the phone. Mckena then rushed towards somewhere. Even though the city has been destroyed, the headquarters can still use the network to communicate with people outside of Antherius.

Tonight the weathers is quite nice with the night sky full of stars. Gabriel who was outside looked at the beautiful sky under the ruins of the city. Memories that can not be forgotten make him keep experiencing shock over and over again. This time he will be faced with what kind of destiny. His almost muddled mind kept him from sleeping for a long time. 3 days ago, Gabriel dreamed of an incident that can't be expressed by words, too terrible to imagine and that's what makes him pensive and can't forget it. As long as he was at headquarters and had heard news from several members of the organization that Samuel had left this world. Hearing the shocking news made him feel more depressed.

"Sorry. But that's the reality. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself," said one of the evacuation teams while removing a piece of cloth that covered someone's body.

When Gabriel opened the cloth, he immediately felt weak. Because it's true as said by the officer that his friend was dead. Gabriel, who couldn't hold back his tears, filled himself with tears. The officer immediately brought Samuel's body to be buried. Deep sadness made Gabriel despair. 2 days after the news of Samuel's death, he was never as cheerful as before. A sad blank look graced his face. Leo who saw Gabriel's condition like that made him feel worried. The worry didn't show on his face. However, deep down he was very worried about Gabriel's condition.

"Are you sure you're going to just shut up?" said Leo who suddenly came over to Gabriel who was looking at the stars. Gabriel then turned to Leo with a sad look.

"Hah? after all, what am I living for? That person shouldn't have just helped me and let my self be crushed to death by the rubble."

"Are you crazy? If you want to die, then later. You have to keep your damn promise."

"Promise? when did I promise?"

"Gosh this idiot".

Leo who felt annoyed then left Gabriel alone. The words that came out of Leo's mouth still made no difference. Gabriel's condition, which seemed to have lost his zest for life, made him forget the goals he wanted achieve. The wind blew around Gabriel, the cold air touched his skin and this time he saw something from afar before his eyes. The sudden vision made him feel threatened not long after he ran to report something and before he was about to report it, the people upstairs shouted there was an attack.

"Unlucky. Where are they from? Why at times like this," said the member who was on the top floor.

Gabriel looked over there and sure enough there the flames had spread everywhere, several people died. A magic circle appeared in the northern sky and in an instant almost obliterated part of the base building. Gabriel who was nearby then received the impact. His body bounced and then the rubble along with the fire almost killed his life.

"Ahhh, dammit. My body hurts so bad," Gabriel groaned

Not long after, someone appeared dressed in black. His face could not be seen because his clothes were like a cloak. That person continued to move closer to Gabriel with a smile behind his hood it was enough to intimidated him. The tense situation was then stopped by the sound of Mckena gunshots from the east.

DUARR

"Who are you? Stop all this damn thing," said Mckena

"Ho, it's you again. It's so boring," said the person as he took out a magic circle and flames erupted from it.

"Ahhhh. Damn it," moaned Mckena

"Next you."

Gabriel was still in front of him with a frightened face.

DUAR… the sound of gunshots hitting his body.

"Ah, what a brother," said the person

The shot this time hit his body and the person's body miraculously disappeared like fire right in front of the two of them. Gabriel caught a glimpse of a mark on the person's left arm. His eyes were filled with wonder and fear made him unable to speak. After the incident, everyone at the base was busy with evacuating the victims. This time, there were quite a lot of victims and all of them had only their bodies left. Jake who was also there was surprised by the arrival of one of them. Seeing part of the building destroyed made him angry.

"Are you okay?" Mckena said to Gabriel

"Oh, yes. I'm fine. What was that? How could that person have such abilities?"

"I'll explain later. Now help me carry all the victims."

"Yes."

The two of them then joined the others and brought some of the victims joined who were seriously injured. Even though this was unexpected, It felt like it all made sense how they came to destroy people. Not only in Antherius.

Several branch bases located in other cities also experienced the same thing even the bases that were there were destroyed in an instant. The person who reported the incident was outside and so did not experience the incident. And when he got there, everything was destroyed. The remaining people hid in a safe place. Terror is getting more and more crazy. Not a few victims who died. After the reports met the call of headquarters, everyone became alert in case something similar would happen again.

"Mckena. You said you would explain what it was," Gabriel said to Mckena who was just sitting on a chair in his room

"I guess if I explained it you probably wouldn't believe it,"

"Believe it or not, I have to hear it."

"Okay then what can you do? It's a kind of magic use by magus. In short, people who have supernatural abilities. You understand."

"Supernatural huh? Wait, does the Abyss have such a person?"

"Right."

"So, what I just saw that person was…"

"Not. You are wrong."

"What?"

"The person…"

Their conversation then stopped because Leo came into the room where the two of them were. Leo who immediately approached them then said something that made both of them surprised.

"Leo," Gabriel said

"What are you two talking about?" Leo said

"That incident. We're talking about that."

"I think that's enough. Let's finish everything tomorrow. It would be better if it was faster wouldn't it?"

"There's no need to rush."

"If not. Everything will die. You already know right?"

"Hey wait you two," Gabriel said

"Curse. Where did the curse come from?" said Leo with a cold look

Gabriel who felt confused only saw the two of them arguing with an incomprehensible face.

At the exact same time in an old castle belonging to the Strauss family. There Ilya was sitting on a chair in front of the dining table. In front of him was served steak which became his dinner menu. Under the dim light, Ilya enjoyed his meal. When he was about to cut meat using a knife, Ilya then felt a premonition in his head. Ilya then flashed a grinning smile while eating his dish. The steak looks quite horror with the appearance of the sauce similar to blood making quite goosebumps. The atmosphere of the room filled with gothic decorations adds to the creepy atmosphere. Behind the window, lightning struck, the rain was getting heavier, making Eldelius cold tonight.

"Look at the weather. Is this a bad sign?" said a shop owner to his customers who were there while waiting for the rain to stop

"How long will it be like this?"

People in this city have had a bad feeling for a long time every time it rains accompanied by lightning. The clock shows 9 o'clock in the evening. The houses that adorn this megapolis city turn dark. They seemed to deliberately turn off the lights. This time at headquarters, the pensive Gabriel soon gave him a cup of coffee to warm the atmosphere.

"You want?"

"Oh, yes."

"Maybe you're confused. But that's the

truth."

"Actually, there's a lot I want to ask. First, how did this start? And then, why is it like this?"

"Everything starts with history."

"What?"

"But, everyone doesn't remember it, there's not even a record. You know why?"

"So what?"

"Everyone hates that. not sure what it is but that's a possibility. Archaeologists and other scientists tried to reveal it again to no avail. That's why no one knows."

"Oh, I see."

"Oh yes. Tomorrow we will go on a trip.

Do you mind?"

"Because Leo also wants to be faster, so it's not a problem."

"Good."

"That person earlier, had a mark on his

arm. I clearly saw it."

"Sign?"

"Yes. Some kind of symbol."

"Hmm....this is interesting. It's late you better rest there."

"Oh, yes. See you tomorrow."

"Yo."

Gabriel then left Mckena's room. On his way to his room, he then felt a strange sensation in his head. Not only that, the horrific memories in his dream continued to appear and made him suddenly stagger. Arriving in Gabriel's room, he lay down on the soft bed. His tired body then fell asleep easily. This time in his dream he saw a childhood memory of Gabriel which was getting more and more hazy. The light that shines makes the eyes feel sore. Inside, her cheerful self was filled with happiness. Until one day, where everything turned bathed in blood. The memory made him sink even more under the shadow of darkness. Gabriel who saw himself in the mirror reflected in his young self continued to stare at him with a cold gaze. the emotionless face makes it seem like someone else. he slowly tried to get out of the room and again it was all in vain.

"You're going to run away?"

"Weren't you the one who started it?"

"Coward!"

"How long are you going to be like

that?"

"Why don't you just die Gabriel!"

Gabriel, who continued to hear the words of his young self, continued to frighten him until he finally injured himself by hitting all the mirrors and then stabbed the broken glass scattered there into his left arm. While holding back the pain he couldn't get away from the horrible atmosphere and continued to stare at his small self and continued to laugh at him. The feeling was getting more and more peaked, blood was pouring from his hands. His moans echoed in every corner of the room.

"Damn it. What about this?" Gabriel said

Not long after, Gabriel woke up feeling surprised while sweating profusely on his forehead. Gabriel who had woken up, then looked at the clock and it was still night. His breathing was getting heavier and harder so he couldn't go back to sleep. A blank stare adorned him. This wasn't the first time Gabriel had dreamed of this and as time went on it felt like reality.

"If it continues like this, I'm going to go crazy," Gabriel grumbled

The next day, Leo and Mckena were already in Jake's room, both of them just waiting for Gabriel's arrival. And sure enough, it wasn't long before Gabriel came to meet them. This time everyone had gathered and prepared to leave. Jake just told him his plan and then the three of them followed suit.

"Okay, come on. Time to go," said Mckena

"Excuse us first," Leo said

"Yes. Be careful you guys," said Jake

Now the three of them left the base and got into a special car. Gabriel just walked after them without saying anything. It was Leo who realized something was wrong with Gabriel and just left it like that without asking much. Their journey to the city of Eldelius took quite a long time because the distance was quite far so they had to spend 5 hours traveling. On the way the three of them didn't talk much and just focused.

"Did something happen, Gabriel?" Mckena said while driving

"Not."

"Is that true? Are you unwell?"

"Not."

"Hmm.... how strange, before you looked amazing. Why are you like this now?"

"That's enough. Leave it alone," Leo said

"It's no good just to let it be," said Mckena

"Besides, it's useless to ask, there will be no satisfactory answer."

"Yes yes."

In a place similar to a base, people were gathering in the dark. The room is minimal with light making their faces invisible. Everyone was silent looking at someone. There, stood a person who looked desperate with a look that wanted to run away. His hands were bound by handcuffs in front of them everyone was in tears. His body covered with wounds made blood dripping down his clothes. Not long after, someone wearing a large necklace approached the person and immediately took him to a table and forced the man down. His hands and feet were tied. Several people who were there

immediately surrounded him and someone using a magic circle emitted a smoke which then swallowed the man viciously. Those present were just silent and enjoyed the atmosphere.

"This is fun."

Several people around Eldelius city were going about their daily activities as if nothing had happened. the news seen on various television stations does not disturb their activities. People look busy. This time, it was at a pharmaceutical company owned by a person named Jodie. There all the workers are busy. Jodie sat in her chair and enjoyed her free time watching the news on the television channel. Not only that, Jodie also got a call from someone.

"Hello?"

"Have you prepared it?"

"Of course. How about you? Can you meet me over the weekend?"

"Not. Just send me what I asked for. That way the transaction is complete."

"Oh, yes of course. I will process it quickly. By the way, when will the auction be held?"

"You can simply look at the schedule on our website."

"Oh yes. OK. Of course."

Someone who called Jodie is a mysterious person. After getting a call from that person, Jodie quickly went straight to her workers and immediately prepared the items ordered by that person. Inside the highly developed company the busy atmosphere persisted even into sunset. This time Mckena together with the two of them had arrived at the city of Eldelius. Once in this city the three of them immediately met someone who would help them. Right in a house that looks just a box-shaped building. The three of them immediately got out of the car and then knocked on the door. Moments later a man came out the door. Her hair is brown and looks pretty neat.

"Oh, you have arrived," said the person

"How are you?" ask Mckena

"Still the same as usual. Oh yeah, who are those two?"

"Introduce them my comrades. This is Leo and this one is Gabriel."

"Hello," Gabriel said

"Hello sir," Leo said

"Hello too, I'm Antoni. Come on in," said Antoni to the three of them

headquarters. There are lots of electronic

As soon as he entered Antoni's house, it turned out that it was not an ordinary place. Rather like an executive items and computers like hackers' property. Not only that, it also includes a lot of weapons and laboratories. It is known that Antoni is a member of a human protection organization who deliberately mingles with ordinary people and lives in this city. When the three of them began to discuss the purpose and purpose of his arrival, of course, Antoni accepted their offer to help. So far the news of the destruction of Antherius had indeed spread to even the corners of Fedelion. For some time they had to use Antoni's residence as a base. This investigation does not require many agents, just them. However, the reality is not as easy as imagined.

"Are you sure? It will be dangerous," said Antoni

"Does not matter. Besides, there's something I want to know," Leo said

"I don't think you'll just be involved with that group. Oh yes, if this is out of control. Is it okay for us to have to come meet that person, "said Antoni

"Does not matter. Sooner or later it's

bound to happen," Mckena said

"Did you do all this?" asked Gabriel

curiously

"Right. because here I am the only one left so what can I do."¹

"What? only you left?"

"I'll tell you later. Now how about we eat BBQ outside," said Antoni

"Wait a minute, at a time like this?" ask Leo

"So what? After all, you've come all

this way and haven't enjoyed this city even for a while? That would be detrimental."

"Come on. It won't be long," said Mckena

Finally they agreed to go around the city for a while and enjoy the BBQ. They eat at a special restaurant that serves the city's famous BBQ. A slightly different megapolis atmosphere from Antherius.
