The gigantic crimson eye beneath Plush City opened wider, and the entire military headquarters shook as if the ground itself had come alive. Cracks spread across the floor beneath Reiji's feet, crawling toward the walls while alarms continued screaming throughout the building.

He didn't know how he knew it, but the moment that enormous eye appeared, something deep inside his body reacted. His dragon bloodline stirred violently, while his nine fox tails remained hidden beneath his clothing. Even without access to his skills, his instincts were screaming at him.

The A-Rank female Awakened beside him grabbed his arm. "We need to get out of here."
