Everything is in utter Chaos, destruction can be seen all over the place.
A fight between two ninth-rank realm entities is not a common thing, it hasn't happened in years but each time the fight happened, it scars many places as their fight is very destructive, taking everything down with them. Many people would definitely die from collateral damage.
The last time it happened was during the Great Barricade Bloodbath.
But back then the innocents have been evacuated and the battlefield only consists of volunteering military men and Awakened that would lay down their lives for the continuity of Humanity, they don't expect to survive that bloodbath.
Only the thought of fending off the Supernaturals and building the barricade filled their minds.
