Monsters were classified into six levels: Ordinary, Unordinary, Malevolent, Vengeful, Cursed, and Eldritch.
The first level, Ordinary, posed a threat that even regular people could handle if they had sufficient numbers.
The second level, Unordinary, was significantly more dangerous—too much for an average person. Only high-rank Awakeners or a well-coordinated party of lower-rank Awakeners could deal with them.
Malevolent-class monsters were far more powerful. Typically, they required either a single S-rank Awakener or a party of A-ranks to defeat. However, there was once an A-rank who managed to take one down alone...
The sensation caused by that feat was immense—it became a hot topic for years, and even now, people still spoke about it.
"Sigh... A Vengeful-class demon is even worse. It takes an entire party of S-rank or even SSS-rank Awakeners to bring it down."
Eryke let out a breath before turning on his computer and then opened the headline news and scanned the latest report—the number of SSS-rank Awakeners worldwide.
There were only 30.
"It would take several of them just to defeat a single one... And for a Cursed-class monster..." He trailed off, his expression darkening. "Even with all the SSS-rank Awakeners combined, victory might still be impossible."
Eryke let out a deep sigh. "Humanity is doomed."
As for Eldritch-class monsters... humanity had never encountered one. But if they ever did, it would likely mark the end.
He exhaled slowly, then willed it.
A translucent blue panel materialized before him.

"Eh..."
Eryke stared at "Fast Finisher" with a stunned expression. He had always thought of it as a joke, but its effect was astonishing.
"Wait... does this make me more handsome?"
Eryke glanced at his reflection in the mirror, noticing subtle yet undeniable changes. His skin appeared smoother and glossier, while his facial features had become sharper and more defined.
Satisfied, he turned back to the shop menu, scrolling through the options casually—until his eyes suddenly halted on a particular skill.
