Guess We're Walking

(MC POV)

I looked at the two bodies that were dangling on the tree branch, their faces so disfigured I doubt their own mothers could recognise them.

"It seems I was too late in subduing those monsters last night…" I sighed.

"It is no fault of yours Master, this is merely an unfortunate circumstance," Lian Li consoled me.

"Poor things…" Manami commented, her hands dutifully covering Cai Hong's eyes from seeing the gruesome scene in front of us.

I used a Technique to pull the corpses of our drivers down from the tree, laying them down on the ground to inspect them.

Their faces had various slashes across them, the size and shape resembling claw marks.

Almost none of their facial features remained and there was a huge gaping hole in their abdomen, their intestines visibly missing.

"I guess the monsters must have killed them for food and left them there for dessert," Eris concluded, prodding the corpses with a stick.
