Running in this wide yet thin tunnel, we experienced fear, smelled the scent of rotten flesh, and heard screams echoing throughout the wall, begging to be spared.
"Save me, spare me, it's no use, it's way too strong, it's the end, I shouldn't have come here" regrets started to pierce our head, while watching our very own comrades whom we share our smile with, get slaughtered.
Humans will always cling to life, even if the chances are small, as long as there is a string of hope, they will tightly hold it. But if too many people hold the same string, no matter how powerful it is..... One day, It will eventually split apart, resulting to a darkness that would slowly eat them, in other words..... DESPAIR.
In a world where countless of monster resides, and humanity which oppose their existence coexist, which one is the prey, and which one is the predator? Who will kill and be killed? In this type of game like world..... It's to HUNT or be HUNTED.
Year of 2079, an era in which deaths rapidly increasing is nothing unusual. No one knows on how and why, 50 years ago, a tragedy struck, leaving a huge impact in the society and turning the world upside down. Unusual structures, out of nowhere started appearing all over the world, due to this incident, governments from different countries dispatched scouts to investigate this structures.
There, a huge change would occur, creatures with distinct sizes and strength went on rampage. Destroying cities one after another, annihilating over 270 million casualties.
Despite the lost hope, those who are brave enough, fought back and got rewarded for their effort, gaining abilities that can rival the so called monsters. These people who prevented the annihilation of the world called themselves, HUNTERS. Their existence became a huge deal, being treated as a hero and saviour, gaining overwhelming power and authority in their respective countries, with endless complements here and there.
But it's way too good to be true, just like a dazzling apple, waiting to be eaten, spewing worms and insects by the time it's consumed, eating you from the inside out, leading you to your very own death.
Through hunting we earn, through earning we eat, through eating we survive, through surviving we live, through living we hunt, a pointless endless cycle, that's what a hunter is.
I, Kei, am about to break the cycle of a hunter. You could call it as a..... life or death situation.
