Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 165.2
The Rizan group also took the initiative in looting, as it would enrich their own pockets. The Rizan group, which was in charge of the red-light district, was not satisfied with this, and began to scavenge and kidnap young, good-looking women.
The inhabitants of the harsh desert were no match for the fully armed fighters of Rank 2 and 3, and those who tried to flee the town were robbed of their property and families, while those who defied them were mercilessly killed.
“Only the lives of my children…”
“Nn~? What shall we do, mister!”
A young mother pleads for mercy as she held her crying baby in her arms. The young human could be used as a labor slave, but the baby would be in the way, the Rizan group man asked Ghiva, who looked down at the mother and child with a tiresome look on his face and spat cold words.
“Get out of the way. Kill everyone except those who can work.”
“Hehe, that’s what I’m talking about. You’ve had no luck.”
“No, no way…”
The mother despairs and the man raises his single-edged sword.
It is impossible for an army, but the men here are from the Rizan group, which is worse than a run-of-the-mill mercenary. Ghiva had no mercy for those who would eventually die, and he had no other interest in them.
“Get that kid out of here…”
But then…
“Hey, what’s that?”
Someone said.
The sun shining on the desert distorted the atmosphere, and a shadow ran through the hazy desert.
For a moment, he doubted even his own eyes at the unrealistic sight that was approaching him, with a cloak fluttering like the wings of a bird of prey.
The men who had been stunned came to their senses when they felt the sweat running down their foreheads. But the shadow was already close by, and before one of the men could raise his spear, it had slashed his neck with a black blade.
“…Ha?”
Few were even able to make such a sound.
Most of them could not even understand what had happened at the sight of so much blood spurting out from the suddenly decapitated fellow, and only those who could barely understand [what they could not understand] let out a voice. The five men on the periphery followed the Spearman and collapsed, splattering blood.
“Enemy!”
Ghiva, who came to his senses quickly, shouted in a slightly hoarse voice.
The men of the Rizan group hurriedly readied their weapons. Ghiva also started chanting his specialty, fire magic, and before it could be activated, the enemy cut into the men with frightening speed.
[–!?]
The speed was so fast that even space seemed to be distorted.
The large, flapping cloak, seemingly unsuitable for battle, obscured the figure and aroused an instinctive fear that the “enemy” was not really a human being.
“Gugaaah!”
If they become frightened, they stop in their tracks and slow down. Then a black blade would strike. With each jet-black sword flash, the men who were about to ready their weapons were pierced in the eyes and between the eyes, their throats slit and their lives taken.
“Yaaaaah!!!”
“Die!! [Fire Javelin]–!”
The men who had finally come to their senses at that point brandished their axes and thrust out their spears. The spears of fire were shot out to engulf even the men, and even if the “enemy” was not human, it seemed certain that their lives would be lost.
“–!”
However, the “enemy” made a split-second decision to step over the spear and fly into the air, and the shield of light repelled the flaming spear. Not only that, but as the wind rumbled around the “enemy,” the men around him were crushed in the skull, pierced through the throat, and had their carotid arteries ripped out, sinking into a pool of blood in the blink of an eye.
“Gaah…”
