What is presented in the eyes of the shrine maiden who is condescendingly observing is a "colony" of the human race. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Countless houses, wooden or earthen made up a village-sized human settlement, and according to the shrine maiden's rough judgment, there were at least a thousand people in this settlement.

- And the strange thing is that in the perception of the shrine maiden, there is not the slightest fluctuation of power in these people.

This world, no matter how you look at it, is not that kind of peaceful place. Generally speaking, there should be great power in humans in this kind of world.

How did they survive if they didn't have any strength at all?

Sensing a slight sense of disobedience, the witch hesitated for a moment, but after all, she still didn't fly directly.

――If the humans here really don't have any strength, I'm afraid that the act of landing from the sky will arouse suspicion. If you want to find out information, although deterrence is also a method, it is naturally better if the other party is willing to cooperate.

In addition, it would be even worse if the other side cooperated with the other side in fear of their own strength, but actually secretly concealed important information.

The shrine maiden has never been idle and has nothing to do to make trouble for herself.

Obviously, it is easier to gain trust by approaching the other party as an "ordinary human being like the other party".

With the void in the air, the shrine maiden flew forward for several kilometers. Feeling that no one should be found here, she landed on the heavy black ash and walked in the direction of the colony in the sense.

This step by step is really an ordinary step, not shrinking into inches and thousands of miles, just moving forward like mortals.

In this case, even if she didn't get tired from this level of exercise, the shrine maiden's speed inevitably slowed down.

In this way, the time that could have been reached in one second has been stretched countless times. In this innumerable amount of time, the possibility of variability is not small.

However, it seems that the shrine maiden has not thought about any accidents at all......

Or does she believe that even if the humans who can survive in such an environment have no strength, they will not be in danger in the event of an accident?

――――――――――――――――――――

What could happen?

Actually, this question is easy to answer. For the human beings of this world, there are only a few things that can be called unexpected.

As for natural and man-made disasters, these are "everyday", not "accidents". The real "accident" refers to a situation like the present one.

Hunters who go out and introduce monsters into the situation of the colony.

It is true that humans are weak, but they need food to live, and they cannot be cowered in the same place forever and not be killed. And the profession of "hunter" naturally came into being. Although edible animals and plants are almost extinct in such a world, it is possible for hunters who are more than ordinary humans to achieve this level of food if they are only to obtain food that allows the people in the colony to maintain a minimum level of physical strength.

Most of the "hunters" whose quality is higher than that of ordinary people in all aspects are extremely experienced and experienced hunters. They have the ability to dodge all kinds of monsters - and if they can't, they will save most people at their own expense.

There can be no traitors among human beings who can barely survive as a collective, not an individual, and there can be no such thing as deliberately luring monsters over.

So it stands to reason that a monster might break into the colony on its own, but be accidentally lured by a "hunter" who can't be negligent - there is no reason for it to happen.

But it still happened.

So, when the monster, which was two people tall and three or four people wide, and seemed to be able to shake the heavens and earth with every step, broke into the settlement, everyone fell into a state of disbelief and boundless fear.

The entire colony was silent, save for the heavy gasps of the monsters.

It was a humanoid demon species. The thick limbs prop up a body that can be described as huge. It was covered in pitch-black scales and had a black tail several meters long. And where its face was not covered by scales, what was revealed was a pair of yellow beast eyes full of chaos and madness.

Their scales are very similar to those of the dragon spirits, even their tails. However, they are also very different from dragon species, so they are called "half-dragon species".

After witnessing the appearance of the monster, the people of the colony fell silent at first, and then began to panic.

I don't know who opened the mouth first, and the noise and noise instantly flooded the space.

"Demon - demon seed!"

"Half-dragon! It's a half-dragon species!! ”

"Run-!"

Panic swept through the colony.

All have forgotten the laws of human existence. All they can think about now is - run away! Run!

I don't want to be able to run faster than the demon species, I just want to be able to run faster than others!

People who are occupied by the fear of death scatter in all directions, each running in a different direction! But how could such an action make the half-dragon species ignore it?

It roared in the sky! The sound seemed to shake the heavens and the earth, and even shocked many people who had become emaciated by malnutrition and fell directly to the ground, temporarily losing the ability to continue to escape.

And in this case, the loss of the ability to escape represents death.

The demon seed took heavy steps and walked towards the fallen people.

In just one or two steps, the demon species had already walked to the side of the human closest to him.

It was a young man. There is nothing special about his appearance, only his frighteningly pale face can attract the attention of others.

Seeing the demon seed coming, he struggled frantically, trying to get up and continue to flee - but, for the sake of his elderly mother, most of the food that the young man could share every day was given to her.

And just now, in order to escape with his mother on his back, he lost the opportunity to escape, who did not have much physical strength.

The filial piety of young people is indeed very touching, but the half-dragon race, which is almost irrational, cannot be experienced.

It lifted its large, scaly, dragon-like right foot, or right claw.

And then it fell.

It fell on the young man.

The body of the half-dragon race is more than twice as large even as that of the cannibal race. And if it goes all out, it can exert the power of the early stage of the third order. How can a human being without the slightest strength resist the claws of such a monster?

Blood splattered.

The young man's waist was trampled off.

Half-dragon species differ from cannibals in that they do not have a cannibalistic habit. But what they do have is the tyranny of the dragon spirits, which is said to have been inherited. What they love most is to torture their opponents in all sorts of ways!
