Aether landed amidst the bloodbath area, his gaze flickering briefly back to Blake before scanning the surroundings.
"Hey, we can leave now!" Some of the onlookers muttered, their voices tinged with urgency as they glanced at the slave and then nodded in agreement. It was a grim reality they were all too familiar with—using slaves as bait was a common occurrence in their world.
"ggrrroooo!!!" The monstrous orc emitted a menacing growl as it prepared to pursue the retreating individuals.
"heh...A-AI, Bastard!!" Aether's voice pierced through the tense atmosphere, though his legs trembled with fear.... However, the fear was short-lived as his mind suddenly calmed down as if natural!!
The orc halted its advance, its dark, black eyes fixing on Aether with an unsettling intensity.
"C-Come at me, bastard..heh" Aether taunted, summoning his courage as he hurled a small pebble at the monster's eyes.
