Since they fought without a single care for their own lives, the four seriously injured orcs were able to take down three of the remaining orcs by sacrificing their lives.
The last orc that was remaining wasn't uninjured.
Since it had been fighting with the other orcs, it was only natural that it had suffered wounds as well.
This last orc was holding its arm while bleeding from all over its body.
It would be easy to use the Echo Bat's hypnosis to take down this orc, but…
I walked forward and pulled out the Fishman Knight's great sword.
The orc was surprised to see walking over, but then it raised its club and roared at as if it was trying to scare off. Even though it was doing all of this, I just calmly stepped forward until I was almost right in front of the orc.
Seeing that I wasn't backing down, the orc made the first move by stepping forward and bringing its club down at . However, I just calmly swung the great sword up to et it.
The mont that the great sword made contact with the club, there was no resistance at all as the great sword cut right through the club. It was like a hot knife through butter with the way that the great sword cut the club in half.
However, the great sword didn't stop after cutting the club in half.
It continued going up until it reached the orc and it continued cutting like a hot knife through butter.
The orc's thick and powerful muscles provided no resistance at all as it was easily cut in half.
The orc's eyes were wide open in shock when this happened, but there was nothing that it could do as it had already been cut in half.
The top half of the orc flipped through the air a few tis from the montum of the swing that I used to cut it. After flipping a few tis like this, it suddenly fell to the ground with a large thud and the bottom half of the orc fell over as well from the tremors.
I stabbed the great sword into the ground and just looked at the orcs that were in front of .
I didn't even bother putting them into my Storage Ring since I didn't want any part of them.
The only thing that I was thinking was…
Putting my hands together, I looked at the orcs that I had hypnotized and thought to myself.
"I hope that you can rest in peace."
Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
The reason why I had the orcs without regard for their lives was because I wanted them to die the worst death possible. I wanted them to suffer before they died, it was the smallest punishnt that I could give to the orcs for what they did.
I hoped that this would help the victim of the orc find peace.
After a mont of silence, I put on the earring again and said, "I've taken care of the orcs that were here and have cleared the area. There are people that are trapped here in this part of the dungeon break zone, so can you get soone to co and rescue them?"
"No problem." An Xue Yun's voice quickly ca through the earring.
"Thank you." I said in a grateful voice, but there was no response.
I didn't mind since I figured that she was most likely already busy contacting the necessary people to send a rescue team over to this building.
I thought about leaving, but then just in case those people in the building misunderstood…I turned around to face the building and raised my voice to say, "I've cleared out the monsters, so you're safe for now. However, I don't have the ti to escort you out of this place, so you'll have to wait for a rescue team to co. I've already contacted them and they will be here soon, so just wait for them to arrive."
I was about to turn back and leave after saying this, but there were heads that suddenly popped out of the windows.
Of course, they didn't co out to thank .
"What do you an by that?"
"Right! You're just abandoning us like this? How can you do sothing like that?"
"If you leave now, what will we do if more monsters co here? With all this shouting, there's no doubt that more monsters are already on their way!"
"You have to take responsibility for us and protect us until the end!"
All kinds of selfish words ca out of the windows of the building that made knit my brows.
I looked at these people and even wondered for a mont if they were worth saving.
But in the end, I said with a sigh, "I can't do anything, I'm really busy. I have to go now."
Without even waiting for them to say anything, I turned around to leave.
When I did, there were even more complaints and even people cursing at coming from the building. Only I just ignored all of them as I continued heading down the sa path as before.
But before I got too far, I heard one voice that was different from that rest that made turn back for one last look.
Out of a window on the top floor, there was a head that was different from all the rest.
It was the head of a little girl who seed to be standing on sothing just so she could look out the window.
She was the only one that said sothing different.
"Thank you for saving us!" She shouted at with her hands cupped in front of her mouth.
Though there were many other voices that drowned her out, I still heard what she said with my increased senses.
I looked up at her and gave a simple wave with a smile on my face.
Seeing this, she even waved back at .
A bit of warmth filled my heart seeing this.
At least this world wasn't completely heartless.
