The Scion

Chapter 337: Chapter 337



The sounds of chaos was overwhelming everybody's senses many people at the Fahad General Hospital, were in a state of confusion, Caleb Rashid and Shuhrah Rashid and their youngest was still un accounted even if communication were still available the entire are surround the King Fahad General Hospital, became a war zone, civilians were armed to the teeth and were not backing down , thousand of hobgoblins and Kobolds ravage the street , children's below ten were hiding under multiple bunkers under their homes , military personnel were working hand in hand with every non Ethereal hunters , their weapons were created to give enough damage to lower monster and the advancement with this technology prove to somewhat kill a few weaker monster while the Al Saud private army made sure to eliminate the monster ,

While Ramiel, also known as Lā mǐ'ěr the White Haired Devil, coincidentally continued his hunt, hundreds of demon spiders and Gehenna wolves roamed every corner of the city. The Saudi were overwhelmed as many monsters that forcibly opened their underground bunker door were met with death. The wolves comb every house and building in search of prey, leaving destruction in their wake. Despite the chaos, Ramiel remained focused on his mission to eradicate the monsters terrorizing the city.

The reinforced steel door creek and bent as hobgoblins used their strength to open the bunker doors, as is these monster open the bunkers, they were all met with a surprise, as family elders were geared to defend their young ones to the death, children who were able to hold gun were trained by their parents, the youngest was seven years old, even if his body was small and the gun he was holding was half his weight fear and his survival instinct was far greater as his baby sister life depended on his will to protect her, the hobgoblin felt hundreds of armor piercing metal enter his body, those who were younger made sure to reload all the magazine as the ammo secure under each bunker is enough to protect a military base.

Each person under this large underground bunker with narrow passage and thick steel doors was wearing ear protection and gas masks. The filtration and air system was also advanced to ensure those who were hiding were safe from poisons and toxic chemicals these monsters might spread. The thundering sound was so numbing that they stopped shooting as soon as the passageway going toward their hiding spot became silent.

The blood and torn flesh were flowing inside the bunker as multiple hobgoblins were seen dead on top of each other; the narrow passageway was just tall and wide enough for a single person; the dead hobgoblins block the entrance. But something was removing the dead corpses on the other side; it was far bigger and more vicious. The killing intent it was emanating was making the people inside the bunker tremble in fear; they wanted to close the opening, but it was torn open. A scraping and biting sound came closer, and they all waited for the moment they saw the creature's face. The last hobgoblin that was lying on the open entrance was ripped apart, and the smell of fear increased as the beast finally showed its face.

The growling sound was terrifying. The eldest member asked the other seniors to prepare to fire again; they all took aim as the opening and waited; as soon as the creature was seen, they would open fire, but the monstrous sound turned into something else, a voice of a woman calling out to those who were inside the bunker. A slender woman entered. She was wearing a somewhat military-inspired dress. She spoke like a normal person, but because of the people under the bunker being Saudis, they were having a hard time understanding the woman. .

The young woman pointed at herself and said one word, and that was "friend!" and followed with

Introducing her name: "I am Alpha."

The people lowered their aim as Alpha smiled and gestured to stay quiet, and she cast a powerful fire spell to clean the passageways of any lingering smell of the dead hobgoblin, making sure no other monster would smell the blood in the area. With a quick inhale, Alpha, in her humanoid form, burst out a concentrated fire from her mouth; the fire was like a flamethrower, but it was 3 times more powerful, scorching everything in its path. The people watched in awe as Alpha demonstrated her immense power and skill. As she made sure the passageway was clear, she cast another spell and fixed the torn steel door, and like paper, it reverted back to its original state. The part where it was ripped open was fixed as if her fingers were acetylene rods and welded the door back together seamlessly. Alpha's abilities seemed limitless as she effortlessly manipulated the elements around her, leaving onlookers speechless.

She waved goodbye and told them to "stay safe, ok," and asked the ender to lock or barricade the entrance as she closed it behind her. As Alpha came out of the underground staircase, the upper ground was completely obliterated from the flame she busted out; the charred dead corpses around the place were a sign that the monsters were in the vicinity. The 100-square-meter bungalow house was no longer standing; monsters in the area were forced to move away as the fire blast killed those who were in its reach. Demon spiders were seen leaping and attacking the monster not under their master control. No creature was exempt in the hunt.

The Gehenna wolves were having a time of their life; they savagely attacked the enemy and played with their dead bodies as they gained experience from a hunt, while the high-level demon spiders and towering ten-foot Gahanna wolves casually walked, each step leaving a dent in the floor, and their younglings were hyper-energetic in their first war; even the white orc tribe under Finbor's command was super active. They all took pride in joining this hunt.

The Saudi people who were fighting in the streets saw those who were the insignia of a wolf with twin swords were not harming the people but instead they were protecting and fighting alongside them. The orcs that were wearing armor that bears the insignia were gesturing that they were friends. But because they were part of the collective, the basic human interactions were already in their mind; a simple hand gesture was enough to state they are friendlies. The well-known peace sign was used.

At first the Saudi people were hesitant, but the massive wave of monsters was so vast that the entire city was like being swarmed with millions of ants. The warriors wearing Lā mǐ'ěr insignia were all smiling; the hell knights and the homunculus imperial warriors were all fuming with anger, ready to defend the city they were designated in. Seven continents were flooded with the hell knight forces, and on top of this massive army was Lā mǐ'ěr, the White Haired Devil.

Thousands of people from different nations saw the hellknight wage war; each commanding office was overjoyed as they fulfilled their hunger to serve their master, finally bearing fruit.

One particular group that was obliterating the enemy with ease was casually roaming the city of Paris; this wasn't actually part of the plan, but she was insistent on coming as she wanted to spend time with his son's human family, Empress Allatou, Amelia, Grandma Mao, and even with Ariella Laila Liu Chen, who were casually sightseeing the city when the dimensional rift broke. The multitude of various monsters that were supposed to attack the city felt Allatou's huge, monstrous killing intent and instantly crippled their violence and decided to stay as far away from where she was. The men in their lives were all busy following the women as they shopped.

The city of Paris was free from the massive outbreak, unlike the surrounding countries, but even with this conflict spreading

Guan Yu has already dispatched his entire guild to engage the monster and coordinate their effort in protecting the civilians as they already know but not confirming that his stepson Ramiel was leading his army that came from Duodecim Regna, or 12 divided and isolated realms.

This information wasn't new to most of their family and affiliated members; they just weren't making such a big deal out of it. The information that Ramiel was a king in the other world was never questioned, nor was his story mocked, as Ramiel had already shown his power was beyond just average. Those who gain this information keep it among themselves, and the events unfold on their own.

The many at the Fu Xi Shi Corporation focus was more on surviving the world change as their new president, Mrs. Sersi Mikhailov Xú, ordered all personnel and affiliated companies to adapt quickly to the new reality. Despite the uncertainty, they remained determined to thrive in the ever-changing landscape. The atmosphere at the corporation was one of resilience and innovation as they navigated through the challenges ahead.

The body guards serving under Guan Yu, was also seen waging a clean up drive on their location hellknight were seen working among side those who were figthing the monster, the devastation was world wide, but Ramiel made sure to cover all angles medical personel under , but in any war or conflict unforeseen events is still a huge vactor , as not all people have a the same capacity and mind set, so like any other battlefield, there were challenges and obstacles to overcome. Death is still unavoidable , Ramiel cant protect everybody, even if his army were all power they were still bound to limitation , especially if the person they were trying to protect were to be in a situation beyond their control. Fear , stubbornness and distrust can lead to death

The number of various monsters was reaching a tipping scale, with 300 thousand forces under Ramiel's command and an additional half a million Ethereal registered hunters and all military and police personnel helping with the war. The death toll was still significantly noticeable. Many factors were finally coming out; fatigue and stamina were accumulating among the human hunters, the vast and seemingly endless pouring of various levels of monster. From weak to a high level was still coming out of the dimensional rift.

Despite the overwhelming numbers on their side, the human forces were struggling to keep up with the relentless onslaught of monsters pouring out of the dimensional rift. The situation was becoming increasingly dire as casualties continued to mount, leading to concerns about the sustainability of the war effort.

The battle just started, and it wasn't even nighttime. The Ethereal hunters found that they lacked so many things, especially in terms of mana; every class S Ethereal hunter could only last as much as an ordinary hunter. Facing a multitude of high-level monsters all at once still leaves the Ethereal hunter overwhelmed. Beta gathered data on the situation, as she knew these monsters were actually easy to kill, as they have no strategic thinking and military tactics.

Beta was sure that if a true demon pier warrior enters the battleground, this will be hard even for her king's army. To think in the battleground is not just about brute strength but also about strategy and tactics.

Her king's forces suffered minimal loss but with zero deaths, as each participating warrior was well supported from the rear with healers and strategists guiding them. Beta knew that victory in battle was not just about overpowering the enemy but also about careful planning and execution of a well-thought-out strategy. She was confident that her king's army would emerge victorious as long as they continued to fight smart.

Seeing that the human warriors lack many things, especially the part where they tend to feel fear, unlike them, they had no fear at all. Those who are connected to the collective all have one response to the battle, and this was to prove their worth toward their master and creator.

This singular mindset set Ramiel's army apart from the rest, as they felt no fear or hesitation; losing is far worse than dying, seeing that they could not accomplish their task was torment and anguish for them. Their loyalty toward their king was beyond just following his command.

The sun was setting, and the war was still ongoing; resources and medical aid were running low. Despite the odds stacked against them, the ethereal human hunter pushed on and understood that they were lacking so many things, especially when they assumed they would overwhelm these monsters, not creating a contingency plan for a long-term battle. They admit they were all too conceited in relying too much on their powers; Fu Xi Shi Corporation and most of all their affiliate buildings and personnel residential housing buildings were fully equipped and prepared for any possible scenario, including a prolonged battle against the monsters. The human hunter realized they needed to regroup and strategize more effectively in order to overcome the challenges ahead.

Guan Yu and Grandpa Tang were ahead of everybody else; all of their structural assets were constructed and maintained by the elders. Even Dr. YaXiu Fan Hospital was like a stronghold; even the illusive and grumpy Gong Renshu warehouses and residential business were built to withstand a direct assault from a small short-range ballistic missile. Ramiel cast so many offensive spells, wiping out small nasty monsters in the open parking lot of the Fahad General Hospital. Ramiel sensed that the hospital had hundreds of people inside it and knew they only had a few awaked people inside; one was peculiarly strong in healing spells. Maybe that is why the horde of red caps and humanoid monsters were drawn toward this location, as most hordes always kill the healer of any opposing enemy. This particular awaked was strong on a wide range of healing spells.

but Ramiel never once felt the person's power being used. Thinking that the person wasn't aware of her power, the silhouette of her body could be seen as Ramiel's golden eyes could see mana, and her was strong, even if he was 50 meters away from the main hospital building.

Gus's shouts could still be heard as the demon spider hunted the red caps with ease; their small stature was very annoying as they entered the hospital air conditioning vents easily.

But Ramiel also saw many armed civilians were doing their best to eliminate the small intruders with their weapons. Ramiel made sure to protect those who were injured and sick from harm as he cast barrier spells. He was taking a break as he gained updates on the current war campaign with the rest of the unit all around the world.

reports were all similar; the human warriors are exhausted as they are now feeling the weight of the prolonged battle. Ramiel knew that their morale was crucial in order to continue fighting against the invading forces. He decided to organize a strategy meeting to boost their spirits and come up with a plan to turn the tide of the war in their favor. Ramiel was disappointed as he never expected they would fall that easily considering they have all the time to set up contingency plans, but he was wrong; humans are still the same as before.

They always take everything as a mild inconvenience and fail to see the bigger picture until it's too late. He realized that he needed to instill a sense of urgency and determination in his troops in order to prevent further losses. Healing potions were used sparingly as casualties continued to mount. He expected this much, but he still hoped mankind would change their mindset. He wasn't that worried when it came to his family, as Grandpa Tang was the one who taught him to always be prepared for the unexpected; the eventuality of change in any situation is always a possibility. Grandpa Tang's wise words echoed in his mind as always: see things from different angles.

Ramiel was an avid learner, and one thing he noticed in large-scale battles was that supplies were the biggest factor, as he already saw that monster that came out were eating the dead remains of their own kind, while this was happening, the dimensional rift was still open, and more monsters were coming out. At this time, carnivorous insect-type monsters were coming out, and the day hadn't even ended yet.

Ramiel even lowered his killing intent so the monster would see him as their prey. Weaker monsters would attack him, but his automatic defense spell would instantly activate and kill the target. Alpha was finished with her task that day and was craving to be rewarded when Echo came to personally meet up with her master, as she too wanted to hear him praise her for her accomplishments. As she opened a dimensional gate, she instantly dashed toward Ramiel and gave him a hug. Alpha was standing a few feet away from him; she felt annoyed seeing how Echo reacted toward the king. Echo tends to be clingy and overly affectionate towards Ramiel, which sometimes irks Alpha. Despite her annoyance, Alpha couldn't deny the bond between all of them; she too wanted to hug her master. He addressed the two and reminded Echo she still had unfinished business to do; Ramiel saw many aircraft above their heads, signs that the government was dispatching supplies toward their people.

Ramiel saw there was still hope; this massive attack was just the beginning, as he knew more would come, and these monsters are actually easier compared to what might come next. The conquest to gain more dominion was the real reason this is happening; the 12 realms unification is still a lingering issue. Whoever started this war campaign was reckless and overly stubborn, considering the power to feed the dimensional opening requires a lot of mana; only a high-rank lord of a dragon-born can do this.

But Ramiel is sure that the dragons are bound to the supreme ruler's law; entering another realm requires a huge amount of power. The dimensional rift all over the world wasn't closing; something was feeding the rift. Seeing the carnivorous insect was now entering the human realm, he was afraid that the Nxus black dragon was the one who penned these gates. But the coordinated attack wasn't its doing; somebody is manipulating all the chaos to bend to its will.

Shuhrah Rashid was helping her youngest daughter in maintaining order inside the hospital when they noticed a person sitting alone in the open parking lot. Most of the vehicles in the area were already gone, as those who escaped drove away to save their own lives. Most staff at the hospitals remained with their patients; many doctors and nurses fought the monster from entering the hospital grounds.

Many were severely injured; some were killed. But because the royal family spent millions on the majority of hospitals security, the death toll was surprisingly low. The city population was around 7 million; the current death toll being reported was around 200,000., but this is too early as the problem was still ongoing and the final count was yet to be determined. The city was in a state of shock and mourning, with emergency services working tirelessly to contain the situation and provide aid to those affected.

Ramiel's hunt path was random; coincidentally, he came across the hospital as he was in the Faculty of Medicine parking lot, as the entire Makkah Al Mukarramah Br Road was filled with dead remains of various monsters. The largest were as tall as twenty feet tall war trolls and a 100-foot Basilisk and a horde of Manticores.

The monster wave was no longer centered at one location; seeing the death of their kind, many of these creatures started to evade high-populated areas and just spread out across the city. As military personnel were slowly taking control of the situation as their weapons were seen as effective toward much weaker creatures, the battle still raged on, but it toned down and shifted toward a more indirect approach in killing their prey..

Unfortunately, not all places were the same; poorer nations suffered greatly from deaths and casualties since they lacked the resources necessary to properly fight the animals. the number of people killed in other places where the hell knight hasn't yet arrived. The remainder of their type were not exactly followed by many monsters. The need for international collaboration in the fight against the animals was highlighted by the fact that the discrepancy in resources between different locales made the death toll in poorer countries even higher. The threat remained significant for people in regions where the hell knights had not yet reached, even though certain monsters did not follow their natural instincts.

Shuhrah Rashid was making sure his other family members were safe and communication was still available. After hearing that a female warrior that can cast powerful fire helped them inside their family bunker, all of their relatives and other children are safe. Caleb Rashid was wounded but not enough to lose his life. He and a few armed civilians barricaded the hospital and made sure to protect the entrance. All metal shutters were already activated, and backup generators are operational. Wounded staff members were now focused on securing their medical supplies, as they knew after this event, they would be flooded with patients from the surrounding neighborhood.

The entire place was filled with so many people, but as soon as the emergency siren activated, they all ran toward their underground bunker. These were the minors and seniors, while those who were capable were left to secure and take responsibility in protecting their loved ones and ensuring their safety. The group knew they had to stay strong and united in order to survive the chaos outside.

Ramiel was still talking to Beta mentally as he assessed all the available information on all the seven locations. Even with all his planning, it still wasn't 100 percent guaranteed that they would all make it out alive. The uncertainty of the situation weighed heavily on Ramiel's mind as he continued to strategize with Beta. Gunshots were still heard coming from the hospital facility. Echo was about to leave when a message was sent to her; it was a message from Lady Laerdya Galadhiel.

Due in part to unverified rumors of Ruler Queen Sheaira Liluth Demiurgos's intention to extend her realm into other realms, there is a chance that Maiae Dallmethad has reached the human world and is connected to the present dimensional gap. Ramiel did not anticipate this. Though the recent circumstances suggest differently, his suspicions regarding the sister of his second mother were only a hunch.

Any strategy would have complications, but Ramiel had not anticipated this ambiguity as a major barrier. The intricacy of this issue is difficult to overcome, although a large-scale dimensional break was controllable. It might launch a full-scale demon invasion because it is the tenth realm ruled by Queen Sheaira Liluth Demiurgos. A demon peer entering the human realm at this time was a sign that our aunt, Queen Sheaira Liluth Demiurgos, was responsible for everything.
