Magnus was reincarnated in a magic world. He led a simple life on Earth and that was something he liked rather than being dragged into conflicts or into adventures to save the world or something like that. He never cared to be the MC but hoped that he would have a pleasant life, much better than his previous life. Whether he could or not, read the tales to see. ---
(3rd PoV)
Everyone is tense, but there is nothing that can be done. The Monster tide is upon them and what they could do was to fight the monsters with everything that they got.
Luckily, people do know that sometimes the estimations are wrong and the tides may occur before the estimated date. So the defences are already up.
What the defence line was missing were the people who were supposed to hold the line.
Since it was supposed to happen the next day, no one was outside, except for the ones that were on duty. Everyone else was taking a rest so that they would be at their peak when they would fight the monsters the next day.
This was a situation that was not expected but was something they were dealt with.
Now, they have only two choices fight or flee.
