Snake of Domination (1)

Gerard Martein.

Tiger Viscount, Warrior.

Although no hero had died in nearly a decade, Viscount Martein perished due to a sudden, unprecedented monster wave.

Thus began an era of turbulence.

Martein, who had terrified the empire with a single sun spear, met an end befitting his name.

He slew the leader of the monster wave but fell in the process.

That monster had led the wave with its cries.

With the leader dead, the cohesion of the monster wave weakened.

The flow of a fluid becomes faster and stronger when concentrated in one place.

The monster wave, having lost its focal point, spread out like a river gradually widening.

Battles raged for days.

As a result, Martein's domain was devastated.

Countless people were killed by monsters, and beasts that once preyed on each other in primeval forests now developed a taste for humans.

Farmlands and houses burned.
