Chapter 398 Missing Mother

“It’s so dazzling. What is this?”

After escaping, Sareth found a safe place to sleep for the night. At dawn the next day, he was awakened by the sunlight.

When he was in Frostfire City, he could not see a star like the sun. In that fragment world, Sareth had spent nine years and never knew that there was something like dawn. So after waking up, he was flustered and quickly hid in the shadows of the nearby buildings while carefully peeping at the dazzling thing hanging in the sky.

And this look almost blinded him…

Sareth screamed. After rubbing his eyes for a while, he was finally able to see again. He felt lingering fear and wondered why there were strange things everywhere in the human world.

After walking aimlessly on the streets of this city, Sareth found that the bright and dazzling thing in the sky was actually quite comfortable. He felt warm under the light, and the surrounding light became abundant, and his sight became clear.

At dawn, the humans in this city finally dared to come out and move around, but they looked terrified, their expressions and emotions showing fear. Many people were talking softly to their friends about the explosions and the fires last night. And from time to time, words such as ‘demon’ and ‘blood’ came from their mouths.

And more people gathered in front of their TVs worriedly, wanting to see the news about what happened last night.

Sareth walked on the streets and saw humans in a hurry. Even on the streets, these people would try their best to avoid dark corners and choose places with sunlight shining to walk. It was as though they were afraid that something deadly would suddenly jump out from the dark corners.

There are so many humans? Why didn’t I see them last night? Sareth was puzzled.

What he did not know was that no matter which city in this world it was, after night fell in recent years, the streets were basically empty, and no one dared to go out casually. People would hide in their homes, lock their doors and windows, and use things to block them. They would not open them until dawn. Those who could move around at night were either soldiers or people with special powers. It was just like a curfew.

And the reason for this phenomenon was the endless ‘demon sightings’ and ‘unimaginable massacres’ in recent years…

There had always been a legend in this world. About two thousand years ago, a demon king named Mundus wanted to destroy the entire world, but he was stopped by a demon lord under him. This demon swordsman named Sparda betrayed his compatriots and stood on the side of humanity. He sealed Demon King Mundus and also sealed the passage between the human world and the Demon World. Thus, humanity welcomed more than two thousand years of peaceful development.

Humans called this demon lord who had betrayed his compatriots the Dark Knight to express their gratitude to Sparda, and they even respectfully called him the Savior. However, human beings were a short-lived race after all. Two thousand years was enough for humans to have tens of generations. Such a long time made this legend become distant and indistinct in the human world. The humans now only regarded the legend of Sparda as a myth.

That was until… demons appeared in the world again!

Around thirty to forty years ago, there had gradually been reports of eyewitness accounts about demons appearing. At first, many people only regarded it as rumors and did not believe it at all. But later, there were more and more such rumors. From only one in the first few years, they would appear several times a year later on, or even dozens of times a year! Moreover, every time they appeared, there would be corresponding cases of the destruction of cities.

The destruction of these cities was very inconceivable during the investigations. There were traces of battle everywhere, but there were no signs of thermal weapons such as bombs exploding. From the destroyed buildings, it did not look like humans had done it at all.

In some rumors and photos with unknown origins, there were even corpses and remains of terrifying non-human creatures…

Therefore, people gradually accepted the term ‘demon invasion’ claimed in these rumors. They firmly believed that creatures called ‘demons’ had appeared in this world where humans lived! They did not know where they came from, but they suddenly appeared in the human world, killed humans, sucked blood and souls, and caused immense destruction. Although the various countries had been sparing no effort to block the news and claimed that the so-called demons were nothing more than rumors, there were some things that they could not block at all. Especially about twenty years ago, an enormous tower suddenly appeared in a certain country. This tower suddenly appeared from underground and soared into the sky, far beyond any high-rise building in the city. It crazily extended thousands of meters into the sky, almost touching the clouds.

At that time, almost all the millions of people in this city witnessed the appearance of this tower with their own eyes, so countless photos of this tower appeared afterward. In the pictures, people could see that this tower had a completely different style of construction from that of humans. It was rough, oppressive, savage, dark, and definitely not a human creation!

But this was not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing was that at the top of the tower, someone had seen scarlet lightning and a gargantuan vortex-shaped cloud. This vortex-shaped cloud was rotating around the tower like a giant gate. People had seen many fantastical and terrifying scenes through the center of the vortex. In these scenes, countless hideous enormous monsters appeared, and blood and flames surrounded their entire bodies. They were continuously letting out terrifying roars… Some people even had a nervous breakdown and went crazy after seeing these horrifying scenes.

Although no one knew what happened, the tower finally collapsed, and the gargantuan vortex cloud disappeared with it. But the place where the tower appeared turned into a ruin. Afterward, the army sealed the city and relocated the surrounding residents. At the same time, numerous investigations were carried out. However, when people asked, the governments used all kinds of ridiculous facts and explanations to brush them off.

Similar incidents happened more than once. Various reports of non-human sightings and the bizarre and tragic deaths of many humans made people believe that demons really appeared in the human world again.

It was not until this time that people recalled the legend about Sparda. They believed that this legend was true. Two thousand years ago, there really was such the demon swordsman Sparda. Although he sealed the Demon World and Demon King Mundus, because of human greed, someone coveted Sparda’s powerful demon power, causing the seal to open!

Facing the threat of demons, humans appeared to be so weak and helpless. Under these circumstances, worship and faith in Sparda was born, and the word ‘savior’ emerged in the mouths of people once again. Many people believed that only faith in Sparda could allow them to survive the threat of the demon invasion, so various religious groups were born. From various documents and records, they restored Sparda’s image and made statues of Sparda according to this image. They prayed day and night to the Sparda statues, hoping that the Savior Sparda would appear again and save humanity.

Of course, since there were people who placed their hopes on so-called religions, there were naturally people who placed their hopes on resistance. Some brave humans began to use technological weapons created by humans to fight against these ever-increasing demons. Through clever traps and tactics, they did indeed kill some demons. Then, through research on demon corpses, they found that the parts and tissues obtained from some powerful demons carried a potent force. Through the corresponding technological means, they could also stimulate this force. And if people used this stimulated force to deal with demons, it was even better than technological weapons.

As a result, demon-hunting organizations were born. They relied on their collective strength to hunt demons, and they used the power of demons to fight against demons. However, in the war with demons, demon hunters discovered that there would occasionally be some extraordinarily terrifying and powerful demons. These demons were not existences that demon hunters could contend against at all. Once they appeared, they might even cause the destruction of entire cities. However, what was strange was that these powerful demons would be eliminated not long after they appeared. Therefore, in the dark world of demon hunters, a legend gradually spread that these powerful demons were actually eliminated by a shop named ‘Devil May Cry’!

However, this legend had not been truly confirmed because very few people could see or encounter powerful demons. Even if people really met them, they were basically dead… But there were more and more legends about a white-haired man wearing a red trench coat in this shop…

The appearance of demons had undoubtedly changed people’s lives. This was also the real reason why Sareth could walk on the streets while carrying a terrifying scythe on his back without being regarded as a monster.

Although many people who brushed past him would look at him strangely, no one had any doubts about him. They only avoided him instead of fearing him.

Sareth was regarded as a demon hunter…

But even so, Sareth still felt uncomfortable. He had never lived in a human world, and after the novelty disappeared, all that was left was discomfort.

In particular, when he smelled an aroma coming from the street and found a shop selling roasted meat, he curiously went to pick up a piece and ate it. But after the stall owner called the police on him because he did not know how to pay, he disliked this world even more.

Then when the police came to arrest him, he resisted. He kicked a fragile human police officer unconscious, causing more police to come and shoot him…

Realizing that he had caused a huge commotion, Sareth, who had no sense of security in this world, hurriedly escaped. Although these humans were very weak, there were too many. Moreover, his intuition told him that if he killed these humans, there would probably be even more trouble waiting for him. This would likely not be of any help to his missions at all…

Therefore, on the second day after arriving in the human world, the disheveled Sareth, who was running away, began to miss his mother…
