Chapter 16 – The Forbidden Gate
The sky turned crimson.
Every hunter in the city felt it at the same time.
A pressure.
Heavy. Ancient. Suffocating.
Then—
A massive black gate materialized above the industrial district.
Not blue.
Not purple.
Black.
Director Arvind's voice echoed through emergency channels:
"Code Black. All civilians evacuate immediately."
Arjun stood on a rooftop, staring at the gate.
The system window flickered.
[World-Level Event Detected]
[Forbidden Dungeon: Abyss Rift]
[Survival Probability: 12%]
Twelve percent.
Instead of fear—
Arjun felt excitement.
"Finally," he whispered.
He activated Shadow Domain.
Darkness spread across the rooftop like living ink.
And he jumped toward the falling chaos.
