Mientras aguarda, reflexiona sobre su propia naturaleza, sabe que hay otros seres monstruosos, como él y de otras estirpes, otros seres de la noche...pero parece que no lo sabe todo sobre su mundo...algo imperdonable.

Death, it seems, isn’t always the end. I was a soldier, fighting for the lives of the whole damned world, when I went and got myself obliterated by this alien f**k. I figured that was it. Game over, done. But then I woke up in a different body, in a strange world full of dust and ruins, with awesome martial arts skills I’d never had before. Not to mention a chi gift thing that seemed to work a lot like magic. I had no clue why or how it all happened. All I knew was that there were these monster girls I was supposed to protect from an endless horde of semi-human things.

I can sense it. The temple we’ve been heading toward for so long. The end of our journey. Standing in our way are the most malign, loathsome, powerful beings ever put on this earth, and their dark chi powers are just plain mental.

The words have been seared into my brain since this alien f*ck blew me to pieces. It’s time to find out if there’s any truth to them at all. This is it. The big finale. Do you really need the warning?
