"Gaaahhh!"
"Uaaahhh!"
Amid the evil aura that resembled black mist, several dark figures rushing at Shien revealed themselves alongside those frenzied roars.
"People?"
Shien froze once he saw the dark figures clearly.
The dark figures charging at him were people.
There were Elves, Beastfolk, and even Dwarves among them. They looked no different from ordinary people, yet they seemed to have fallen into a berserk state. Their eyes were bloodshot, their faces twisted, and drool hung from the corners of their mouths. One look was enough to tell that they had completely lost their minds.
Yet what surprised Shien was not that these people had lost their sanity, but that their clothing was unlike that of people from this era.

Some of the unarmed savages lunged directly at Shien's hands and feet, biting at him like beasts with desperate ferocity.

"Gaaahhh!"
"Uaaahhh!"
The very next second, those savages ignored
