But something was strange. Vita, who first sensed the unusual energy, stopped.
The village was excessively silent. Although I expected it to be stifling after the explosion, it wasn’t.
There were no screams of terror or cries of agony. I could only hear the sounds of burning flames, something bursting, and buildings collapsing. An ominous premonition engulfed him.
Vita raised his right hand high. It meant to stop.
However, the field of view was not secured, and the soldiers were already in an excited state.
Most of them stopped, but a few, not seeing Vita’s signal, continued forward.
“Argh, where did these little rodents hide!”
At the careless shout, angry muscles twitched on Vita’s face. Vita strode through the soldiers. Then, she drew her sword.
“You foolish brats.”
Vita’s sword pierced through the man’s chest. The surrounding soldiers all became unsettled. Vita had seen her army do many things, but she didn’t expect such actions to continue on the battlefield.
“Urgh!”
As she pulled out the sword, blood gushed from the man’s chest. The man’s body fell like a puppet with its strings cut.
Blood stained the ground, and the soldiers, avoiding the blood that reached even their feet, hesitatedly stepped back.
Thus, the first blood spilled on the ground became Agila’s.
Silence lingered.
With the fear of Vita and the situation becoming apparent, everyone turned to look at the village. In anyone’s eyes, no one could be found.
“W-Why is this…”
Fear crossed the faces of the soldiers. But realization came too late.
Swish.
With the sound of the wind splitting, arrows flew. Then, right in front of Vita’s feet, an arrow was stuck. Vita tightly grasped it.
You’ve been deceived, Vita Agila.
Vita’s face twisted like a broken cookie.
“Find the enemy immediately!”
Although she shouted loudly, it was useless. Arrows began to rain from all directions. Moreover, explosives were attached to the tips of the arrows. The explosions that had been interrupted resumed everywhere. And this time, Agila’s screams were also present.
“Hide in places where arrows can’t reach!”
Vita shouted belatedly, but due to the collapsed surroundings, there was no place to escape. Moreover, the army, already attacked and losing their reason, couldn’t hear Vita’s words. There was no escape.
“Damn it!”
In the end, unable to wait for Vita’s command, some soldiers, turning into eagles, flew away to escape.
Swoosh!
When one or two flew away, the remaining eagle beastmen also sensed the danger and all flew up together.
“You foolish brats, don’t come back! It’s a trap!”
No one heard Vita’s shout.
Then, cawing sounds, like kraaak, rang out.
A huge net descended from the sky.
The eagle beastmen trying to fly away were all caught in the net.
Piyuuu!
The trapped eagles struggled to escape the net, but the more they struggled, the more entangled they became. The sky was filled with the screams of the trapped eagles.
Vita had to watch her captured soldiers without any mercy.
The ones who were laughing at the victory just a while ago were now like birds in a net.
“You wretches!”
Vita grabbed one annoying soldier with one hand and threw him far away.
Stride, stride. She strode forward. There was no intention to just stand there and take it.
However, before Vita could do anything, a voice was heard in the distance.
“I pondered on what to do with a beast that rampages without even knowing who its owner is.”
With a ground-shaking voice, Idrish walked out of the smoke.
“What are you doing? Attack the author right away!”
Although Vita shouted in anger, no one attacked first in the face of her momentum and instead hesitated and stepped back. Vita looked around with bloodshot eyes. There was no one helpful around.
“Incompetents.”
Vita drew her sword. It didn’t matter if the soldiers were incompetent. She could take care of them herself.
Muscles bulging on Vita’s jaw, she rushed towards Idrish.
Bang! Crash!
The sound of blades colliding was deafening, as if even the air was vibrating. However, in strength, Idrish took the lead.
“This dog, son of a dog…!”
“Sorry, but I’m not a dog; I’m a tiger.”
“Grrr.”
