Chapter 108: Nerves

( A few hours before the monster wave )

The entire planet Earth waited with bated breaths when the sun shone over the horizon, marking the start of a new day.

Today was the day where the monster wave was expected to start, however, since the start time wasn't definite, there was a possibility of the raid starting anytime in the next 48 hours, however, the defending forces had to be alert nonetheless.

The bonfires from the night before were extinguished, the morning meals eaten quickly and battle armor equipped.

The atmosphere was tense, war songs were being sung to keep morale high, while authorized personnel from the ground zero media began their live coverage of the monster raid.

Schools, Colleges, Offices, shops, etc were shut across the world, as on this day, all non-climbers gathered in either community shelters or the safety of their homes, praying to Gemini Gods for an easy wave.
