The balance of the world collapsed when portals opened up to different worlds. Humans were granted systems to hunt the beasts in the Otherworlds. These beasts could give the Hunters their Codes, granting them special abilities and weapons.

Allen was dodging all the attacks that were being launched at him. He was confused as to what was happening, having no idea why Jeremy was acting this way.

Compared to their fight from before, Allen felt like Jeremy was much much stronger than before. It felt like his powers had increased tenfold since the last time they clashed swords.
