The barrier shattered and the tentacles rushed in, as if they had been waiting for that exact moment.
"Run!!"
"There is nowhere to run. Everyone's struck!!"
Unlike how it let the priest go untouched prior, the tentacles blocked every alley. The remaining tentacles moved swiftly towards the people who were searching for an escape.
A thin tentacle pierced a middle-aged man's heart.
"Khkh..?!"
The middle-aged corpse, deprived of its life force, was tossed high into the sky.
"Honey!"
The dead man's wife blanched and ran toward her husband, who had been thrown away. Chuk! She was lashed off by tentacles that swung like whips, pinning her to a building.
No, for the lifeless and crushed form was now just a splash of raw meat.
"Ah…"
Ophelia looked at the hunk of meat with quivering eyes. That woman was the lady who had earlier shed tears, thanking her for saving their lives when Ophelia had saved her.
"Kyaaaaaaaaa!!"
Hearing a scream, Ophelia jolted her head around.
