I couldn't put the image set and poll in one post, so I wrote it separately. Haha.. I'm sorry.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, everyone says,

That night,

That green-lit night,

That night was when the end began.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The continent of Gamelia,

The end of this continent has begun.

The beginning of that end was observed in a port city.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The port of Revendal in the Kingdom of Aspendia, known as the Land of Beginnings.

At first, it was considered a simple act of violence.

However, this seemingly simple violence engulfed the city, unleashing bloodshed and destruction, and isolated the city.

In response, the mayor, a former general, personally requested the current captain of the kingdom's guard to dispatch the kingdom army to reclaim the city and rescue the residents.

---------------------------------Revendal is a strategic location even within the Kingdom of Aspendia, so the operation was swiftly carried out.

Around a thousand kingdom soldiers were deployed, and the Adventurers' Guild sent about 200 adventurers.

Thus, the operation began, and the "unconditional" retreat horn sounded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The operation to reclaim the port and rescue the residents failed.

The defensive lines established for the rescue were brutally torn apart and crushed.

For "them," tactics didn't matter. Only the overwhelming destruction through sheer mass was effective.

"They" acted with singular purpose, and it was lethal to humans.

On this day, the first official record of defeat to "them" was made.

--------------------------------------------------------

and here

They were here too.

They took on the role of rescuing the residents, but the residents died and the retreat trumpet sounded.

It was an unprecedented order to retreat “unconditionally”, to simply escape alive without any conditions.

There was no longer any reason for them to remain here.

All they wanted was to escape this hellish pit of blood.

------------------------------------

If we go through this alley and take the left path, we'll reach the back door of the tavern. We just need to get through there!"

Marga, a former soldiers officer, knew the town's layout perfectly, and the escape route was clear in her head.

They believed that as long as they followed Marga's instructions and ran, they would be able to escape.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deferred despair accrues interest.

And before them, a greater despair stood in their way.

The walls the residents built for survival became the very thing that would kill them.

--------------------------------------------------

Even as the deferred despair threatened to choke them, Marga remained calm.

The plan was simple, Marga and Rosalie would remove the wall, while Elazra would stand guard.

Marga gave the orders, Rosalie responded and acted.

Elazra said nothing

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Elazra?"

Elazra, who hadn't responded to Marga's call,

had a face twisted in indescribable fear and disgust.

All she could do was step back and mutter curses under her breath.

--------------------------------------------------------------

The end of their despair had arrived.

Marga said,

"Everyone, prepare for battle"

--------------------------------------------------

The “thing” that appeared in the darkness had a human shape, but they did not want to think of it as a human.

It was giving off an unpleasant aura that I never wanted to get close to.

And they saw for a moment.

How "they" kill humans.

-----------------------------------

But there is no place to retreat.

Their end has begun.
