Prologue (1/2)
A once ordinary and peaceful town is presently filled with roaring screams.
「Run! Just run!」
「Throw away your luggage, it will only slow you down!」
「I’m begging you, let me on your car!」
Without distinction in the chaos, a crowd of people are trying to escape.
Those who stop will be caught by the thing that is chasing them.
Only death await those who are caught.
「Wait, papa, mama!」
In the crowd, there is lost little girl calling out for her parents, but no one stops to help her.
From behind the little girl, a man who is running away pushes her aside as he runs for his life.
「Out of the way brat!」
「Kyaaa」
No one raised a complaint as she was pushed aside. The man escapes from the sea of people.
However, the heavens didn’t overlook the man’s foul deed.
Suddenly from the back, a red beam pierced through the man’s body.
「Gyaaaaaaa―――!」
Not long after the man gave his finally agonizing scream before collapsing on the ground like a puppet that had its strings cut.
On the man’s body is a single scar. His shredded heart slowly stops beating.
The light in the man’s eye disappears; he will never speak another word. It is now a corpse that has lost its spirit.
It can’t be explained by science as its existences defy the very fountain of life.
「Ah, ahh……」
Upon pulling herself up, she is rendered speechless as she witnessed the disaster unfolding before her eyes. By supporting herself with her hand she turns around.
There a transparent hexagonal crystal prism is floating on the lonely highway where people had once stood.
The giant crystal is about the size of an adult male; in the center, there is a dim red orb of light.
The surreal looking object is like a photoshopped picture.
However, that thing is an existence that seeks to destroy them. It is an enemy to the world and humankind.
「N, no……」
The little girl cowers in fear. As if it is scowling at the girl, the red orb inside the crystal begins to move about.
