Chapter 1: The Day the World Ended
The last thing Mateo Álvarez heard was his nephew screaming his name.“UNCLE MATEO!”The boy's voice tore through the ruined street, sharp with terror.Mateo tried to turn his head, but his body refused to obey. Blood filled his mouth. His left leg was crushed beneath a fallen concrete pillar, and every breath felt like swallowing broken glass.Above him, the city burned.Skyscrapers that had once pierced the clouds lay broken across the streets. Smoke swallowed the moon, while the distant howls of monsters echoed between the ruins. Somewhere beyond the destroyed buildings, an alarm continued to sound, stubbornly announcing an emergency that had begun ten years ago.Ten years.That was how long humanity had fought to survive the First Awakening.And this was how Mateo Álvarez was going to die.Not as a hero.Not as a champion.Not even as a respectable member of the human race.He would die as a man who had once possessed everything and lost it all.“Gabriel, run!” Mateo shouted.His

Chapter 2: The Tutorial’s Final Countdown
Mateo Álvarez had less than twenty-four hours to prepare for the end of the world.The problem was that nobody believed the world was ending.Outside his apartment window, traffic moved through the streets of Valencia, Spain. Delivery drones passed between buildings, advertising screens flashed promotions for the latest neural-interface upgrades, and people hurried to work beneath the pale morning sun.Everything looked normal.That was what made it terrifying.Mateo stood beside the window, staring at the city he remembered losing.In his previous life, this same street had become a battlefield. The shopping center across the road had collapsed during the first wave of monsters. The apartment block next to his had burned for three days. Hundreds of people had died before the government even understood what was happening.And the survivors?They had learned that being human did not automatically make them the good guys.Mateo turned away from the window.His phone displayed the time:

Chapter 3: When the Sky Turned Blue
At 11:47 a.m., Mateo Álvarez stood in the middle of his living room, watching the countdown on his phone.Thirteen minutes.That was all the time left before the First Awakening.The apartment was quiet except for the low hum of the refrigerator and the occasional sound of traffic outside. Gabriel sat on the sofa, checking the straps on his new boots for the third time. Sofía stood beside the dining table, her tablet connected to a portable power bank, several windows of Omega data open on the screen.They had barely slept.Neither had Mateo.He had spent most of the night reviewing everything he could remember about the First Awakening. The initial monster appearances. The first system notifications. The panic that had spread through cities when people discovered that injuries sustained inside Omega could follow them into the real world.He had also tried to understand the strange messages that appeared on his phone.Unregistered system irregularity detected.Priority: Observe. Do no

Chapter 4: The Price of Seeing
The first thing Mateo Álvarez learned about the First Awakening was that surviving it did not make him feel safe.It made him afraid of what came next.At 4:26 p.m., the underground parking structure had become a shelter for nearly two hundred people. Families huddled beside parked vehicles, injured strangers lay on blankets near the medical station, and volunteers tried to organize food and water before panic turned the crowd against itself.The electricity had returned intermittently, but the communication networks remained unreliable. Every few minutes, someone's phone would connect long enough to receive a notification before losing its signal again.The sky outside was still blue.Nobody knew whether that was normal anymore.Mateo sat against a concrete pillar, watching Gabriel help distribute water to the people around them. His nephew had complained about the work twice, but he had continued without being asked.Sofía, meanwhile, had found a corner near the medical station wher

Chapter 5: The First Mission
Mateo Álvarez woke to the sound of someone screaming.His eyes opened instantly.For a few seconds, he forgot where he was. The concrete ceiling above him, the unfamiliar smell of disinfectant, and the distant murmur of frightened survivors brought back memories of the first weeks after the Awakening.Then he remembered.The underground parking structure. Gabriel and Sofía. Lucía. The Rift Stalker.He sat up too quickly and winced as pain shot through his left shoulder."You're awake."Lucía sat a short distance away, holding a paper cup of water. She looked tired. Dark circles had formed beneath her eyes, and her hair was tied back carelessly."How long was I asleep?" Mateo asked."About four hours.""That's too long.""For someone who nearly got himself killed yesterday, I would say it was barely enough."Mateo accepted the water."Did something happen?""Several things. Most of them unpleasant."She pointed toward the entrance.A group of people had gathered around a large floating

Chapter 6
The gate dropped halfway before grinding to a halt.The technician swore."It's jammed again!"The creature was almost upon them.Mateo's vision flashed.Blue lines appeared beneath the creature's armor. For an instant, he saw the same bright irregularity near its shoulder that he had noticed on the Stalker.Then pain stabbed behind his eyes.The lines disappeared.Mateo stumbled against the wall."Mateo!" Lucía caught his arm."I'm fine. Get everyone back!"The creature lunged through the narrowing gap beneath the gate.Marcos stepped forward and swung his wrench.The blow struck the creature's armored head and bounced off.The impact nearly pulled Marcos off balance.The creature snapped at him.He barely managed to retreat."That didn't work!" Marcos shouted."No kidding!" the technician replied.Mateo looked at the half-lowered gate.If they could force it down, the creature would be trapped on the other side. But the mechanism was jammed, and the technician could not reach the co

Chapter 7: The Signal Beneath the City
The darkness swallowed everything.Mateo froze with one hand against the wall, listening to the silence beneath the transit station. The lights had gone out without a sound, but the vibration that followed still lingered in his bones.Beside him, Lucía switched on her phone’s flashlight.Nothing happened.She tapped the screen twice, held down the power button, and tried again. The display remained black.“Please tell me you expected that,” she whispered.“I didn’t.”“Good. I’d hate to discover that you have a habit of walking into underground tunnels that shut down every electronic device nearby.”A faint smile crossed Mateo’s face, but it disappeared when the symbol on the wall began to glow.Three silver rings surrounded a dark center. The light pulsed slowly, as if something behind the wall were breathing.His chest tightened.He had seen that symbol before. First on the night he died, in the memories of a future that should no longer exist. Then in the strange visions that had fo

Chapter 8: The Creatures at the Eastern Gate
By the time Mateo and Lucía emerged from the maintenance entrance, the morning had grown warmer, but the atmosphere around the transit station had become more dangerous.Three armored creatures prowled near the overturned delivery truck. Their dark shells reflected the blue light hanging over the city, and their narrow heads moved constantly as they searched for prey. The fourth remained trapped behind the lowered service gate, scraping its claws against the metal.Beyond them, several volunteers had gathered behind a line of abandoned vehicles. Marcos stood at the front, gripping a heavy wrench. Beside him, the maintenance technician was trying to convince two frightened men to help reinforce the barricade.A woman suddenly shouted from the road.“It's coming this way!”One of the creatures had left the truck. It moved toward the barricade, its claws clicking against the pavement.Marcos raised his wrench.“Hold your positions!” he ordered. “Nobody runs unless I say so!”The creature

Chapter 9: The Price of an Unanswered Signal
The first thing Mateo noticed when he returned to the shelter was the smell.Sweat, dust, disinfectant, and the sharp scent of food being cooked over a portable gas stove filled the underground parking structure. People moved between parked cars carrying boxes, bottles, blankets, and makeshift weapons. Some looked exhausted. Others spoke in low voices, trying to convince themselves that the strange blue sky outside was only a temporary disaster.None of them knew how much the world had already changed.Mateo paused at the entrance.In his previous life, this shelter had been abandoned within three days. A group of armed survivors had taken control of the supplies, forcing everyone else to leave. Many of those who went outside never returned.He had remembered the event as inevitable.Now he understood that it had only been one possible outcome.“Mateo!”Gabriel hurried toward him, carrying a clipboard almost as large as his chest. His expression changed when he saw the dust covering M

Chapter 10: The Signal That Followed Him
Mateo had barely reached the shelter entrance when the pressure in his chest returned.It was not painful this time. It felt more like a finger pressing against a bruise, gentle but persistent, reminding him that something inside him had changed.He stopped walking.Lucía nearly bumped into his back.“Please tell me you haven't decided to investigate another mysterious phenomenon without warning me.”“I haven't.”“Then why did you stop?”“Because it's happening again.”She immediately took out her sensor.The device emitted three short clicks, paused, then produced another three.Lucía frowned at the display.“That's the same interval we recorded beneath the station.”“Can you identify the direction?”“Not yet. Give me a moment.”She moved the sensor slowly from side to side. The clicks grew faster when she faced the eastern road, then slowed when she turned toward the sports center.Mateo followed the movement.The signal was strongest toward the transit station.That was where they
