Powerful! The Half-Beastman Unit Annihilated in an Instant!

When someone sees something that frightens them, they instinctively avoid or push it away. This is a normal reaction, especially considering the girl was in a state of extreme distress at the time.

Yoru Machi craned his neck to look at the cliff face before him. It was only about fifty meters high. Shimada Yousuke, that guy, knew "flight" magic, so he wouldn't die anyway, and Yoru Machi decided not to bother with his fate.

The previous drought in the village hadn't been a harsh enough lesson. After this incident, that guy probably wouldn't be so reckless again.

"My lord, will your friend really be alright? How about we go find him at the foot of the mountain? I know these roads very well, and I'd like to apologize to him personally."

The girl, who had been panicking earlier, had now calmed down. She looked at Yoru Machi with self-reproach.

As she spoke, the girl observed Yoru Machi's appearance. She thought the big brother in front of her was truly handsome.

There's no harm without comparison. After being terrified by Shimada Yousuke's strange appearance just now, Yoru Machi's already handsome face now seemed incredibly, earth-shatteringly handsome to the girl.

She even wondered if, had this Yoru Machi stepped forward to protect them, she might not have pushed him down the mountain in her panic.

"No need. A mountain of this height won't kill that guy. And you don't need to apologize specifically. It's good for him to learn a lesson.

Where was your village originally? I'll go see how many Half-beastmen are there."

The siblings clearly had severe trauma from the Half-beastmen. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't even dare to seek out Half-beastmen, let alone actively look for them.

But for some reason, when the girl saw Yoru Machi's confident and nonchalant attitude, a blush involuntarily spread across her face. Then, as if possessed, she led Yoru Machi to their original village.

When they arrived at the girl's village, it was already a scene of hell on earth.

Many houses had completely collapsed, and there were scattered human limbs and pools of blood on the ground. There were also many women with torn clothes, clearly violated to death.

Witnessing this scene, Yoru Machi finally understood why Shimada Yousuke, with his Half-beastman face, was attacked wherever he went.

There were many demi-human races in this world, but Half-beastmen and Goblins were the most numerous, as well as the most brutal and the most frequent attackers of human villages.

They mostly moved in groups and possessed a certain level of intelligence. They would raid human villages to plunder food, and because they were demi-humans, they would also abduct young women from the villages for procreation, which was the reason for their ever-increasing numbers.

There was hardly any sign of life left in the village before them, but there were still many Half-beastmen feeding in the village, and quite a few were still roaming around, trying to find isolated prey.

"You two wait here for a moment. I'll clean up some trash and be right back."

As soon as Yoru Machi was exposed to the sight of the Half-beastmen, he immediately attracted the attention of several Half-beastmen on the outskirts of the village. Seeing that there was still isolated human prey, these Half-beastmen, armed with weapons, charged towards Yoru Machi, uttering unintelligible languages.

Facing these charging Half-beastmen, Yoru Machi simply gripped his sword with one hand. His wrist seemed to effortlessly swing the blade several times before him, and these Half-beastmen stopped dead about a meter away from him.

The next second, with a gush of blood erupting from them like a fountain, the bodies of these Half-beastmen exploded in mid-air, instantly shattering into several pieces and falling to the ground.

Throughout the entire exchange, Yoru Machi's expression remained completely calm, as if he had done something effortlessly. Not a single drop of blood splashed onto Yoru Machi's clothes.

Seeing more Half-beastmen drawn by the commotion, Yoru Machi calmly flicked the blood off his long sword, sheathed it, and then extended one hand forward. A massive surge of Magic Power erupted from him.

"Clearing out trash-like fodder, this method is indeed faster.

Shatter-scattered beast bone spires, crimson steel wheels, wind moves, stillness is emptiness, spears clash, sounds fill the void city.

Hadō #63: Thunder Roar Cannon!"

As Yoru Machi continuously chanted the incantation, immense Magic Power rapidly gathered in his hand. Violent golden arcs of electricity, like lightning snakes, tore through the ground, leaving behind scorched ravines.

In just a few seconds, a colossal golden lightning ball, nearly five meters in diameter, formed before Yoru Machi. The golden lightning illuminated the surroundings with a blinding white light.

The dozens of Half-beastmen who had emerged from the village upon hearing the commotion had intended to swarm and kill the human before them. However, upon seeing the ball of lightning crackling with destructive energy in his hand, they halted their charge.

Half-beastmen aren't intelligent, but they aren't completely mindless either. They too fear death.

Sensing the terrifying aura of "Thunder Roar Cannon" and the immense Magic Power radiating from Yoru Machi, these Half-beastmen began to falter. After a brief hesitation, they turned and began to flee.

"As creatures, their instincts sensed danger and recognized the disparity in strength. But it's already too late.

The strong prey on the weak, survival of the fittest. Just like the village you ravaged, I can kill you as easily as crushing ants."

Seeing the dozens of Half-beastmen turning to flee, Yoru Machi unleashed the giant Thunder Roar Cannon without hesitation.

The massive Thunder Roar Cannon, trailing destructive electric light, plowed a half-meter-deep trench in the ground before smashing into the group of Half-beastmen and instantly detonating!

"BOOM—————!"

Accompanied by a blinding white light that enveloped the surroundings, the entire village, and even the area for several kilometers around, experienced a slight tremor.

Even the thick-skinned Half-beastmen could not withstand Yoru Machi's fully chanted, otherworldly version of Thunder Roar Cannon. The violent lightning, like sharp swords, easily tore through their bodies, while simultaneously emitting intense heat, instantly incinerating their corpses.

The lightning storm raged for a full half-minute. When everything subsided, all that remained was a giant crater dozens of meters in diameter, its surface covered in scorched earth. As for those dozens of Half-beastmen, not to mention complete corpses, not even bone fragments could be found.
