"Help! Somebody help me."
"Run."
"I don't want to die."
"I already escaped death but I don't think I can escape a second time."
"Run as fast you can."
The remaining survivors of Aethelgard City ran with all their strength.
The monster had already destroyed half of the city when it demolished the lodging section along with General Dray's quarter and with that, it killed thousands of humans instantly.
The remaining survivors became even more frightened and ran for their lives.
However, to their misfortune, only a small part of the city remained intact. Even General Dray's quarter, which had been reinforced by the Space Tear's restriction, was destroyed.
So, there wasn't a place left for them to run. Aethelgard City itself was quite a small city so after it was almost destroyed, there were little to no places for the remaining survivors to hide.
