Chapter 885 Demon Gate
-----
Just like any of these events, everything happened too fast. The SWORD Agents have been mostly busy in the city''s outskirts, and several groups of them were also spread into neighboring cities to hold on the Monsters spawning in the wilderness. Not all monsters came from the Gates, some of them simply emerged due to normal animals mutating into inexplicably powerful creatures. Usually in the areas where monsters appeared, or a Gate showed up, the nearby fauna would slowly mutate into monsters themselves.
Other times, it would be monsters from Gates that would escape and then quickly reproduce after hiding, creatingrge families of monsters. They would continue hunting on the nearby fauna and grow inrge numbers, threatening to flood a nearby vige or city. Before the First Contact with another World, Earth still had monsters, but not as much as before, in the medieval times or even before. What remained of them were hiding inside ofrge areas away from all civilization and were only hunted by special supernatural hunters.
The SWORD Agency was once made for that. Their job was mostly to hunt the Trolls and Ogres hiding in the snowy mountains of Canada. Deal with Evil Wizards and sometimes, only a few times, fight off crazed Werewolves that left their families and decided to vite the Non-Aggression Agreement between Humans and Werewolves. Their families quickly deciding it was for the best for them to be in to not threaten the peace between both kinds.
Once the Gate Break rm rang off, the agents panicked. Most of their members had been moving in shifts to deal with the infestation of monsters, so they were only able to send their two Elites and a small group of low-level Agents to deal with the civilians. Naturally, this included Rose and Albert.
"You have to be kidding me! It has only been almost two weeks since thest one and there''s a new Gate again?!" Roseined, leaping across the buildings with her incredible physical strength and movement speed.
"At least this time there aren''t multiple ones appearing everywhere!" Albert said, flying with demonic wings made out of Hellberos'' powers. "Where is it?! Ah, there!"
The two reached the mall, feeling a huge shockwave of immense, terrific power. They were a bit toote. Although the rest of the agents were now protecting and controlling the panic of the civilians, the pair that had just arrived was toote.
"Is that… a Gate?!" Rose gasped.
"N-No, this is… What the hell is this?!" Albert asked.
Hellberos manifested out of his Aura, as he looked around,ughing. "That thing… I have not seen one of these in many years. It is a Demon Gate. You know where this leads to?"
"D-Demon Gate?!" Rose muttered. "But don''t demons… aren''t they…?! What is going on now?!"
"The worst-case scenario is happening." Albert said. "A Demon opened a Gate to Hell! Look!"
As the two ran towards the Gate, they saw gigantic arms pouring out of the entire Gate. They belonged to a myriad of terrific demonic entities, trying toe out of the enormous Gate all on their own. The titanic arms mmed the ground, the mall''s ceiling began breaking apar, barely supported by yne''s powerful roots and branches spread across.
RUMBLE!
The gigantic demonic arms with sharp ws shed through the ground. The paved floor surrounding the mall and indoor park shattered, opening up. The sewers down below broke, sshing water everywhere. Demonic mes spread, causing explosions and setting aze anything they touched.
The people screamed, running away from the scene as fast as they could. But the inside of the indoor park, Rose''s senses could clearly sense dozens of people trapped inside! She gave a nce at Albert.
"Albert, I''ll go save the people inside! C-Can you somehow handle the arms for half a minute?!" Rose asked.
"I''ll do my best. Go!" Albert swiftly leaped into air, rushing towards the gigantic arms trying to destroy everything.
Rose nodded and swiftly descended into the ground, jumping from a thirty-floor building like nothing, andnding as if she were as light as a feather. Her Blood Aura erupting from within her body and epassing her. She rushed towards the scene, giant boulders sliced apart by her long crimson ws, growing out of her nails.
SLASH! SLASH! CRAAASH!
"Now!"
She leaped into the skies, kicking the air with her swift movements. An eruption of crimson blood energy surged from below her ck boots, allowing her to reach the building through the opening in the ceiling. Her senses spread out, as she sensed arge group of people escaping into the blocked entrance.
RUMBLE!
Suddenly, one of the Demonic Arms broke through the ceiling as shended. The ceiling broke apart instantly, boulders falling down immediately after. The people running away panicked. Rose noticed some people helping them, but they couldn''t be everywhere at the same time.
"[Blood Threads]!"
Her crimson nails created threads of blood, which she used to grab a dozen people and pull them towards her while she was still falling in midair. Seconds before the pirs sustaining the ceiling were to copse right where they were.
BAAAM!
"W-What''s happening?!"
"Who are you?!"
"T-Thank you so much!"
The people cried. Some confused, others genuinely grateful. Rose had no time to even speak, she rushed right behind the group helping the people. Noticing some familiar faces again. It was yne and Mark, alongside her daughter and her friends.
"yne?!"
"Ah, Rose!"
As the two greeted one another, they had little time to talk. The ceiling continued falling apart, the gigantic boulders following them as if they were purposely chasing them. The demonic arms pierced through the ceiling, aiming to destroy the entire building.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
"The entrance is blocked by a bunch of boulders!" Anna cried.
"That shouldn''t be a problem!" Mark roared, his arm suddenly growing into a gigantic arm made of zing wood, as he punched the boulders and the door open.
CRAAASH!
A huge hole was left behind, where everyone managed to escape, seconds before the entire building were topletely copse, a cloud of dust covering the surroundings.
RUMBLE!
