"Did you hear?" I looked at some of the parties who began to go towards the outer walls.

"Hear what?" Rose looked at me weirdly.

"The rumor about the beasts lurking around the city" A mysterious yet wry smile showed up on my face. I already had an idea of why they had come, but it was better to see it with my own eyes rather than continue to make assumptions like the rest of the humans.

"You heard that too?" Olivia asked while itched her ear, making Rose and I looked at her with tinges of surprise.

"Yeah. I saw we go check it out. Nothing can go wrong and even if it goes wrong, it just meant that it would go wrong anyway and would affect us even within the walls." I shrugged and looked at Yuri.

"Do you have enough energy to fly?" I asked with a slightly concerned tone of voice

"Yes... I don\'t need your pity" She snorted

\'What happened to the pure and innocent heartbroken Yuri that I met the first time?!\' Imaginary tears rolled down my eyes.

"Alright then, let\'s go. Make sure to not use your lighting and also slow down a little when running" Rose looked and me and then nodded.

All 4 of us began to jump from building to building at a moderate speed that the exhausted Yuri and the slightly weak Olivia could follow. Eventually, I found myself jumping on the same building as Yuri, allowing me to finally start a conversation.

"Yo~" I waved at her with a smile behind my mask

"Go away..." She tried to jump into another building, but I just followed her anyway

"What do you want?" She gave up way too fast.

"I want to talk about something" I replied sternly.

"What is it? Want to mock me for my fear of blood or are you going to insult my dead teammates again?" She sneered and tried to speed up, but at her current power, her speeding up was nothing compared to my full speed.

"I actually wanted to talk about your teammates and why I killed them" I sighed

"Trying to find reasoning for killing them won\'t make me suddenly like you." Yuri sneered while I lighting chuckled

"Well, what I was going to say probably won\'t make you like me, but I at least want to tell you why I killed them since they were your teammates after all..." I paused and looked at the distance before speaking "I have mana-soul eyes" 

Yuri immediately widened her eyes at the reveal before looking at me weirdly.

"And you are telling me this because?"

"Because I wanted you to know that I can see the sins of people by looking at their soul energy. I can tell if a sin is new or old and also how grave the sin was that they had committed" 

"And?" She frowned

"First I killed the guys because they had all committed some kind of sin while being there, I killed the women because if I didn\'t kill them right there and then, they would have lost their reason and if saved, would have become insane the moment they left the cellars. Best case scenario, they would have just killed themselves" I shrugged

"But that wasn\'t for you to decide. They could have gotten therapy when they left or they cou-"

Before she could even finish talking, I quickly stopped her and spoke again.

"Look. I simply did not care enough for them. They had lost their dignities and would have either gone on genocides or had killed themselves. The moment I saw that I just chose it was better to mercy kill them rather than let them live with the trauma and shame." I rolled my eyes.

"Well then, you are a psycopath! How can you take human life so easily!? We are of the same race yet you just choose to kill them, and even then, you have the guts to call it mercy killing?! You are disgusting!" Yuri quickly flew off with renewed figure while I halted my movement for a bit and raised a brow

\'What was wrong with that I said?\'

[Not sure. Maybe she is overly sensitive because she just lost her friends? Or maybe it is from some kind of trauma resurfacing after you two fought.]

*Sigh*

I quickly glanced around before shooting off in the direction of the wall at a speed much faster than before.

2 minutes later, I found myself finally landing amongst hundreds of people all clad with different armors that suit their fighting styles.

When my foot finally touched the ground, I stopped looking at all the people around me and instead, spread my senses to up to 1.25 km and 4 miles with my eyes. It was then that I was finally able to see the thousands upon thousands of beasts that were looking at the city with menacing glares.

They all ranged from being intermediate up to Duke tier beasts, the strongest among them having a power level of 198 thousand, barely a few thousand away from reaching the archduke tier or in other words, the bronze tier.

The moment I had looked at them, they all seemed to have looked up and made eye contact with me, or in reality, the illusory enormous eyes that watched them from above.

"Let us form an attack plan before we start chargin-" Before the man could speak, a huge gust of wind almost knocked him off balance, causing him to cover h face using his arm while getting into a fighting position.

Everyone in the crowd then watched as a golden beam went up to the skies before shooting like a meteor and descending upon the beasts.. It was only then that some of the more arrogant ones also go the courage to shoot off as well without having to hear a lecture from some random guy who thought he was the leader, yet one of the most powerful people who decided to follow the golden beam for a completely different reason was actually Rose.
