Destroyed Village and Lady in Distress

The warm sunlight of spring would have helped them enjoy the day in a pleasant mood… yet what they were looking at contributed oppositely.

At first, they thought it was cooking smoke coming from a chimney or a campfire, which meant they found a settlement.

They did arrive at a small village, which was built just outside the forest. However, there were no inhabitants. Or what should have been the inhabitants were now lifeless corpses impaled on stakes outside every burnt house.

There were mainly male villagers who were put on the stakes after having all their limbs cut off, while naked women were randomly scattered on the ground, chests and stomachs ripped open. The kids in the village weren't spared either. They were in the same terrible condition as their seniors.

At first, Tulu was furious to see the entire village slaughtered clean. But then he started getting terrified when looking at the last expressions on the villagers' faces.
