Phuna who ran outside saw the urgency.
"Hnung!"
"Chief Vite is on a rampage!"
"What shall we do chief?!"
Hnung held both his axe.
"Evacuate everyone, the children and women, evacuate them inside the cave…Prioritize the women and children! Do not attack the vines! Hurry!"
The ogre warriors nodded their heads and held their weapons.
"Hnung brother we heard the urgency!"
Thirak who held his axe glanced at the 800-meter tall monster.
"This is…Vite?"
"Brother, where are Mae and the two children?"
"She is safe and is helping the others evacuate, the two children are safe as well…Brother what are we going to do?"
Thirak had white lines on his hair, he was getting older.
He didn't know what to do seeing his granddaughter rampaging.
"Father, please! don't hurt her!"
"Honey please you need to go with the others and evacuate.."
Chay was holding onto his wife, they only had one child since his wife had a weak constitution.
She almost lost her life while giving birth to Vite,
Tipa was crying, for a mother even if her child turned into a monster or a killer all parents are the same. They all love their children no matter what.
"Please…save her"
"Tipa we have to go with the others!"
Tipa was escorted by Chay.
Meanwhile, Hnung, Thirak, and the rest of the ogres tightened their grip on their weapons.
Hnung wasn't so sure that he could keep his promise, especially seeing the monster rampaging.
He doesn't know if it would be a good idea to leave a child with such power that could destroy and kill many.
"What's the plan brother?"
"Don't attack the vines carelessly, just one hit by the vine can cut a body in half…Be agile, and dodge every attack, use the fire to burn it.."
"But that would also hurt Vite inside!"
"We have no choice! Either let this thing rampage or put an end to it.."
Thirak and the others followed Hnung's plan.
Since the vine was terrified of the flame, everyone was going to form a circle to corner it while using the fire as a barrier of protection.
'Orcus, please keep us safe..'
Shriekkkkkk
With its demeaning tone, the vine hissed, it was afraid of the fire and was cornered by the other ogre.
"Hiekkkkkkkkkk!"
"Pro…te…ct…ma...s..ter…!"
"It talks!"
"Don't falter! Use the torch to corner it!"
Hnung held both his axe.
'Enhance!'
Hnung ran ahead while carrying the axe and a red aura was emanating from his body. Hnung swung the axe twice, severing a sizable chunk of the vine.
Hnung jumped away as the vine soon grew back and became even more aggressive.
"Move everyone!"
Without stopping, the vine began to move, slamming into everything as it spread its vines. Vite was shielded by the vine inside a sphere as it attacked. Many of the other ogres were sent flying as the vine struck them.
"Ugh!"
"Heok!"
Thirak rushed holding his axe and swung it on one of the vines that was holding down one of the ogres. Phi was also protecting the other injured ogres by using his axe to hit the vine.
"It's fast! I can't keep up!"
Phi's body started to bleed due to the spikes, he was doing his best to accurately hit the vines.
"Hurry leave!"
The injured ogres ran with their might.
Phi managed to push back the vine, but suddenly a vine grew from the soil behind him. His reflexes couldn't keep up, and before even dodging the strike, the vine managed to pierce Phi's stomach.
"Uh…"
"Phi!!"
Throwing up tons of blood, Phi lost his balance. Thirak rushed to his son and caught him before he fell to the ground.
"Phi! Hang in there!"
Thirak dodged the vine. He swung his axe at the vine.
Clang!
But the vine was unscathed. Thirak tried to pull the axe from the vine, but the vine wouldn't let go.
"Brother behind you!"
Thirak who heard Hnung's shout, jumped away from the vine. Thirak could see Phi's body being dragged by the vine.
"You!"
"Brother calm down, we will get Phi just wait!"
"Tipa stop!"
Hnung and Thirak turned their heads. In a split second two vines grabbed them and pushed them both to the ground.
"Urghhh!"
Hnung could feel the vine's sharp teeth begin to scathe his skin. Even his bones started to get crushed due to the sheer pressure.
'I was careless…'
"Vite stop! Please, sweetie! Enough of this!"
Tipa with her body trembling and tears falling stretched both her hands.
"Sweetie it's mother. Please stop this your hurting everyone, please"
….
Meanwhile, inside the sphere, Vite kept on banging on the vines.
"Let me out!…"
"Mas…ter…pro.. tect!"
Vite glanced at the small creature, it had a height of 20 centimeters. With small hands and feet, the creature had deep blue eyes with a small round face.
The creature's hair was made of vines, and the vines attacking the others came from the creature's hair.
"Let me out! Stop this!"
Vite shouted and in return, the small creature cowered in fear.
"Bad….peo..ple! Out..side! Hurt..mas..ter!…They..ma..de..mas..ter..sad!"
"You're bad! They didn't hurt me! Stop they're my family your hurting them!"
"I'm…hurt….am..I..not…Mas…ter…family?"
"We can be if you stop! Just stop please!"
"No…..no one….wan.ts..me…Mas..ter…lying!"
…
"Vite sweetheart stop!"
"Kill….."
"Tipa get out of there now!"
Chay ran to his wife.
But the vines formed into a huge hammer, and with its fast reflexes it immediately rained down on Miele who was shivering looking at the huge mallet.
"Miele!!"
Pang!
Chay glanced at the huge mallet, he lost his strength. He gathered his thoughts looking at the scene.
"M-My wife…"
Hnung and Thirak were straining to escape the monster's vines, but they were able to move thanks to the Vine's overwhelming might. Hnung made an effort, but his strength was gone as the razor-sharp knives steadily entered his flesh. The impact was so great that even his bones began to fracture.
"Chay!…Run!"
Thirak with his last strength shouted with his might. The other ogres felt helpless looking at the towering figure, who not only captured their chief but their champion who was now on the ground bleeding.
"Run!"
The ogres couldn't move, their body was stuck in that position. They were shivering. They also wanted to move but their body was too scared, they couldn't control their body. Fear controlled them, as they looked at the monster above.
"You monster!"
A boy holding a small axe charged at the vines.
"Wait what are you doing!?"
The ogres shouted, even Thirak and Hnung who watched the boy run ahead to the vines were baffled.
"You! Hurt my father! Monster!"
"Martik don't! Urkkkk!"
The boy threw his axe leaving no scratch at the vines, but the child rushed through. He ran to Phi who was on the ground bleeding.
"Father!"
Phi was slowly losing consciousness, before he could close his eyes, his son was running towards him.
'That stupid brat….what is he doing?'
"Father!!"
"R..u.n!!"
"Huh?"
"Move away now!!"
The boy glanced up above and a set of vines held him.
"Arghh Father!!"
"No, no!"
The other ogres couldn't move, their body was stuck.
"Move…"
One of the ogres who was shivering tried to take control of his body.
"Move….Please you goddamn body move!"
"It's no use even if our body move…were still going to die…"
….
"Get inside hurry!"
Mae was holding two children in her hands.
The women and children entered the cave, and Mae using all her strength closed the cave using the boulder. Once inside, Mae lit up the dark place and glanced at everyone's scared expression.
"Mae, will they be alright?"
"They will be…"
Phuna was also inside, he held a torch and began to kneel.
"Oh our god Orcus, the Apostolos, please save our tribe, protect our people, your children from harm!"
Mae glanced at the others, and she knelt as well.
"Oh god Orcus, please save us!"
The others inside the cave followed suit and started to give their prayers In front of the statue of Orcus.
"Please save us!"
[Ding!]
[The devotion of the ogre tribe is absolute!]
[A hidden feature has been unlocked!]
[Would the host use this new feature?]
[Yes or No]
….
"It's all over, we're all going to die.."
One of the ogres in fright started to tear up.
Hnung was still being held down by the vines, the pain he was feeling was beyond.
Hnung glanced at the sky, the sky was dark, and slowly the sky began to rain as if pitying them.
'Is our tribe going to end here? Why did this happen? Where are you our god Orcus? Why aren't you here?'
Hnung was bleeding a lot, and his eyes started to wither from life.
"Let me go!! Father help!"
Phi was having trouble even standing up, he couldn't move his body due to the hole in his stomach. He was slowly losing consciousness.
"Bwahahaha!"
A laugh resounded in everyone's ear, and suddenly the rain stopped pouring.
A man with red long hair, wearing red armor, fell from the sky.
The man had a wide smile, with red bloody eyes, his skin was fair, with long ears.
The man had two huge red axes on his back and was huge with a bulky body.
"Bwahahaha it's been so long since I last descended! This will be fun!"
