Chapter 17 - CHAPTER 17

The First Worldwide Demon Wave

The warning came too late.

GLOBAL SYSTEM ALERT

The sky—

Everywhere on Earth—

Turned blood red.

From New York to Delhi.

From Tokyo to small forgotten villages.

A single message burned into the air itself.

⚠ WORLD EVENT INITIATED ⚠

First Worldwide Demon Wave

Survival Rate: Unknown

Then—

The gates opened.

HELL WALKS THE EARTH

Low-rank demon gates shattered like glass.

From them poured creatures that should not exist.

Clawed beasts with twisted limbs.

Horned predators crawling on walls.

Shadow-things that screamed without mouths.

Some demons laughed.

Some hunted.

Some slaughtered silently.

Entire streets were erased in minutes.

THE FALL OF THE UNPREPARED

Military bases fired everything they had.

Tanks burned.

Jets fell from the sky.

Missiles vanished inside magical barriers.

Commanders screamed orders that no longer mattered.

"Why won't it die—?!"

"Retreat—RETREAT—!"

Governments realized the truth.

This was not a war.

This was a purge.

THE AWAKENED FIGHT BACK

Yet—

Not all humans were helpless.

In the middle of chaos—

People stood their ground.

A college student raised glowing hands—

Lightning tore through a demon pack.

A police officer's body hardened like stone—

He crushed a demon skull bare-handed.

A monk chanted—

Golden barriers formed around fleeing civilians.

Hunter Rank Evaluation: In Progress

Heroes were born in blood.

Cowards were exposed.

THE TOWERS ACTIVATE

As demons rampaged—

The towers responded.

Ancient doors opened.

Tower Rule Activated:

Clear Floors to Suppress Demon Waves

Some awakened rushed inside.

Some hesitated.

Some never returned.

DEMON RANKING REVEALED

As hunters fought, the System updated globally.

Demon Classification Identified

F-Rank – Lesser Beasts

E-Rank – Pack Predators

D-Rank – Elite Killers

C-Rank – Commander Demons

B-Rank – Regional Threats

A-Rank – Nation Breakers

S-Rank – Calamity-Class

SS / God-Tier – World Enders

Most gates released F–D Rank demons.

That alone—

Was enough to drown humanity in blood.

THE DEMON GOD WATCHES

From his throne beyond reality—

The Demon God observed calmly.

"Let them struggle."

"Let them awaken."

"Only the strong deserve to survive."

He turned his gaze—

Toward one sealed gate.

"Grow faster, Shiva's heir."

INSIDE THE GRAVITY GATE

Garud screamed.

His bones cracked under crushing force.

Blood pooled beneath him.

Gravity Multiplier: ×30

Divine Power: 5

He stood again.

Unaware—

That while he trained—

Millions were dying.

That the world had entered its first night of terror.

A PROMISE OF WAR

As the demon wave continued—

The system delivered one final message.

World Status Updated:

Era of Peace — TERMINATED

Era of Awakening — BEGUN

The old world was gone.

Only strength mattered now.

And somewhere—

A boy trained under godly gravity—

Destined to decide how this war would end.
