Chapter 39: Class S Heroes Are Monsters
At the outskirts of a city, ten A-rank heroes stood firmly, guarding the gates. Their expressions were grim as a thunderous tremor shook the ground.
Rushing toward them was a living nightmare — a monster horde of overwhelming scale. The chaotic energy they radiated made it clear: there were multiple A-rank beasts among them. This wasn't just dangerous. It was catastrophic.
"Why are there so many? Just how many portal breaks are happening?" one of the heroes muttered, gulping hard.
Despite all ten being elite A-rankers, the sheer number of enemies made their odds abysmal. The best they could hope for was to delay the inevitable.
Weapons drawn, skills ignited, they braced for impact as the first wave of monsters charged. But just before the creatures made contact—
FWOOOOOM!
A blazing beam of fire fell from the sky, vaporizing the front lines of the horde in a single sweep.
The heroes froze, eyes widening as they looked up.
