Beast attack

9:30 Am, The town of Endless Shores.

"Die you brainless shit!" Vaden pierced the beast skull with his spear, coated with wind elements.

"Ahh!!, these beasts are never ending, we been fighting for 6 hours straight! if this continues walls will fall and the town will be run over!!" The middle aged blue haired women, Hellan reminded.

Even when speaking Hellan's focus never left the battlefield. Slashing one beast after the another with her sword, she fought against unending number of beasts.

"I just wanted enjoy the Beach with my daughter, is that too much to ask?...Even if I am going to die I'll take a few dozen of these crazy beasts with me!" Vaden cursed, there was a deep sadness in his voice when he mentioned his daughter, as if he was lost.

"Sir, if we survive this calamity the drinks on me!" The guard capital Yato spoke trying to rekindle hope.

"We can only trying delay the inevitable!" A low leveled guard said solemnly.

"Idiot!! don't give up there's still hope!" Yato scolded the guard.

"..." There was not the usual 'YES SIR' response from the guard.

Yato turned to the side only to see the previous guard laying dead with a red hot porcupine needle impaled on his head. It was obviously from the D rank beast flame porcupine.

"...*Sigh " Yato shook his head disappointedly and commanded his contract beast to resumed fighting.

After another 30 minutes of restless fighting, humans were being pushed back with the beasts superior numerous.

The beasts were ranging from E rank to B+ rank. B+ ranked beasts just send the weaker ones to swarm the human side, while they sat back and enjoyed the view.

The higher the rank, better the intelligence and the strong ruled the weak for beasts that's law.

Various skills and fighting styles were displayed in this battle. Earth spikes Pierced the beasts, fire burnt them, flying swords cut them to pieces, lighting stuck them in buckets.

Even so the opposing beasts were not behind. Imbuing energy into muscles their speed and strength had a qualitative change, giving the humans a hard time. But humans had a wide variety of skills and techniques, even so a person drops dead every few seconds. Only the high rank beasts could only perform superior skills such as elemental attacks, that was the only relief humans had.

Coating his spear with wind energy and increasing its sharpness by almost 10× times, Vaden fought untill his chakra ran dry. Even though he knew its was fruitless, he still fought like a manic.

But he had his own limits, some things are hard to accept. Dropping on his knees due exhaustion, he resigned to his fate of being eaten by beasts.

He thought back to his life.

His wife was killed by sudden attack of evil spirits 10 years ago near the border, that left him devastated to the core, the only saving grace he had was his crippled little daughter. Even so he didn't give up and worked hard to gather money for her treatment.

But, as if heaven itself was mocking them, one day she coughed up not small amounts of blood. When doctor performed analysis, it was found out that she cought a rare incurable chakra disease and had only 2 months left to live, Vaden was left heart broken, he didn't show his sadness to his daughter and hoped for a miracle to happen.

But, his daughter had a wish before her pending death!

To see the beach with her father one last time. And he agreed after she dies he will also end his life, he couldn't live a life without his daughter. Of course, he didn't tell her about killing himself.

So the duo arrived at the town of 'Endless Shores'.

But fate decided to play bitch and launch a Beast Tide...

Remembering that his daughter was still in the town, he put an effort to stand up and fight, only to end up failing.

'Sorry sweetie! daddy failed you' Thinking about his crippled daughter 'Please god I know I'm asking too much, but please save my daughter, until she could enjoy the warm beach'

He closed his eyes and resigned to his fate.

*Whoosh

The expected pain of beasts biting and killing him didn't occur.

Vaden opened his eyes and what he saw next... confused him?

*Whoosh

Beasts were starting at a certain direction were an unnatural strong wind was comming from, no, they are shivering.

The weaker E and F rank beasts directly fainted with blood flowing from their nostrils.

*Whoosh *whoosh

The defending side was obviously confused, squinting their eyes carefully observing the source of wind from the forest.

Was it an even more powerful beast?

The humans may not see it, but the beasts can sence it.

A force rivaling the potency and similarity of natural energy was put on full display like a white beacon piercing the sky, Threatening to annihilate the all the beasts from both sides of the battle field any second.

*Whoosh

And this unfathomable force was pissed, really pissed.

From the darkness of the forest two small figures walked out.

A boy and a girl!

With black and white straight hair, the boy showed an annoyed look. The bob haired girl stood behind the boy carrying a small bag which contained a world ending 'seed of divine tree', which no one knew except for Sen and Stella.

[A/N: it's simple as giving nuke to a kid ]

Taking a few steps forward under the confused gaze and fearful glare of the beasts the boy uttered a word that changed the entire battle.

"SCRAM"

Like a tsunami his aura raged.

Like powerless herbivores to a carnivore, the beasts ran towards the dark forest like there is no tomorrow.

Regardless of the contracted ones or the attacking ones!

•••

'That was more easier than I thought' Wiping out an imaginary sweat, both Sen and Kaguya proceeded to move towards the broken gate under everyones curious gazes.

Before he could enter the town, he was greeted by a long sword blocking his path.

The bulky man holding the sword threatened "Kid if you don't want to die you better hand over that special item?"

Sen eyes brows flinched Was he being robbed in middle of almost a hundred people?

"What item?" Sen asked genuinely curious.

The man furiously spoke "The same one! you used to chase the beasts away..."

None of the humans raised a voice to help Sen. why because they also wanted know what item kid used and possibly steal it.

After all, if there was such a miraculous item that could scare the beasts, it could fetch a good fortune and help forming contracts with strong beasts.

The crowds hungry eyed Sen, but also felt pity for his parents, the kid had no brains, he basically going to die showing off.

As for the kid being genuinely strong, Bullshit!!. They couldn't even feel a single ounce of energy from the kid. The boy was probably nitwit.

The humans tend to believe what they wanted to belive, but not clearly the unexplainable. That was the human nature and it was both fortune and disaster at the same time.

The bulky man continued "...hehe on further look... I decided to take the girl too... after I'm done I will send her head back, Isn't that enou-"

"PREPOSTEROUS!!" Sen shouted and his eyes were bloodshot. It was natural for men to lust after females it was natural, but to behead a girl after the deed is done. It was utterly inconceivable.

And this lusty titan had to eye his women at that, what an audacity! This one needs to be punished and the highest level at that.

Sen didn't even have the time to check rest of his Omnivikrigon's abilities. When he saw the beast attack, he somehow knew it was his fault for not concealing his 'aura' that the beasts run towards the town.

'Maybe it's now time to increase my proficiency in using the Truth gate'

Time to kill!

Sen grabbed the swords blade under the man's confused glare and twisted it, untill it snapped.

*Clank

The man was shocked and tried to put up distance.

But the man felt an even more ominous feeling and looked upwards. He wish he hadn't, he nearly wet himself looking at the gigantic eye that straight off came from a horror movie.

The next instant countless dark obsidian hands came out and attacked the man. The man was freaked out beyond words.

Coating his sword with fire, the man madly slashed at the black hands. Unfortunately for him the hands passed directly through the attacks as if they never existed since the start.

After latching on the bulky man. The hands pulled out an ethereal transparent version of man from the body, the soul.

The soulless body like a broken doll hit the ground.

*Thud

As soon the hands pulled him out of this body the special effect of the gate of truth was applied.

DESPAIR! the man was shown a glimpse of what will befall him.

Of course, it was stell's idea to make it dramatic. Well it was all Stell's idea, even the truth gate itself.

"Argh!! please forgive me—"

*Thud

The door closed!

From that day onwards the bulky man we not know of, will be eaten alive by the body less heads of several victims he created in the past again and again.

The crowd was both shocked and horrified.

A few thought raced through their minds, never voiced out.

'Devil'

'Demon'

Never caring about their thoughts Sen and Kaguya entered the town of 'endless shores', their vacation was starting.
