"Keep moving!"
"Don't stop!"
Higher-ranked hunters rushed past him, intercepting the monsters before they could reach the fleeing civilians.
Meanwhile
Raito remained where he was.
He watched everything unfold while catching his breath.
Damn it…
My family…
They should be safe.
He clenched his fist.
Should I create a barrier over this entire city?
He immediately shook his head.
No.
That would not be useful. The portals are scattered around this city.
He looked back toward the descending insect monster.
His mind raced.
Nearby
An A-rank hunter leaped into the air.
Slash!
The giant insect was cut cleanly in half before crashing into the street.
But that was only one.
Hundreds more monsters continued emerging from the portals.
Below
A C-rank wolf lunged at a hunter.
Its fangs sank into the hunter's shoulder.
"Agh!"
Before it could bite again
Another C-rank hunter rushed in.
Slash!
The wolf's head flew off.
