This is a multimedia webnovel with giant city-crushing monsters, a valiant man who dares to fight them, a hero who loses himself on a righteous path, and a darkness which conceives a profound love. But I suck at descriptions, so I strongly encourage...

Several spheres of darkness appeared in front of the massive monster's chest; these spheres were untouched by the glow of fire beneath them. With a swift movement, the entire cluster of shadow balls shot forth across the sky. They blasted through the smoky air and into the distance at an unbelievable speed. When the scattershot struck the outskirts of the city, where all the helpless citizens desperately tried to flee the city, every shadow sphere detonated with a blast of blue fire. Hatasuko could feel a score of souls fall silent in reality and then awaken in the tempest; their cries empowered the symphony of screams in his head. He could feel their misery take the form of a tear that rolled down his ash-stained cheek.
"Please... give me your strength," Hatasuko whispered as he pulled back his arrow.

As he stared down the shaft of the arrow, Hatasuko tilted his body and aimed his arrow at the golden eye of the Interfectus. He kept his arms completely flexed so that he could sustain the force of his powerful bow, and now that he was ready, he took the shot by releasing the arrow. His shot would have been perfect, but the Interfectus was simply too tall. The strong northwest wind blew the arrow off course before it ever reached the monster's eye. It instead struck the hard surface of the demon's body and broke without even leaving a scratch. Hatasuko felt his heart skip a beat because this miss was critical. The Interfectus now knew that it was under attack, and its golden eyes pierced through the smoky air until it found Hatasuko.
"I don't have time for failure. I have to hit its eye!" Hatasuko said as a sense of urgency overtook his shaking body.
Hatasuko quickly pressed the nock of a second arrow against the bowstring on his weapon. He could feel the sweat on his skin evaporate from the extreme heat all around him; sparks swirled through the smoky air as he drew back another arrow. But before he could even tilt his arms and take aim, he saw that the Interfectus was ready to fight back. A cluster of shadow balls now floated in front of the massive demon, and its eyes glared directly upon him.
Despite his overwhelming urge to aim for the monster's eye, Hatasuko chose instead to do the only thing he could to protect himself. He fired his arrow at a shadow sphere in the same moment that the Interfectus unleashed its scattershot. The arrow struck the sphere, so it detonated immediately; the burst of blue flames engulfed the other spheres and forced a massive explosion in the sky. The air in between Hatasuko and the Interfectus erupted with a bright blue inferno and a deafening roar. A series of fiery shockwaves struck them both, but the Interfectus was unaffected by the flickering flames. However, the same shockwaves knocked Hatasuko through the ashy street and engulfed him with sparks and smoke.
