People are scared in America, my uncle is Dante

A pickup truck charged toward the ogre.

Jack, the elderly father, stood steadily on the back of the pickup truck, his hands gripping the harpoon launcher, a modified drilling rig, with its large spearhead already loaded inside.

He stared in shock at the monster sprawled on the RV.

Although he was mentally prepared, seeing this non-human being with wingspans of three or four meters still filled him with some fear.

The cannibal looked at the newcomer with a puzzled expression.

So what if he ate one of your sons?

Is it really necessary to chase after them this far?

What's wrong with food these days?

In the past, whenever it appeared, the food would tremble and kneel down, then choose the best one to serve.

Unlike now.

Not only did it dare to attack it, but it also dared to chase after me?!

The elderly father, Jack, quickly regained his senses. The pain of losing his son transformed into overwhelming hatred, and murderous intent gathered in his heart.

"Die, you beast!!!"

He roared and pulled the trigger with both hands.

"Bang!"

A spear attached to Dinima's rope suddenly shot towards the ogre.

Before the ogre could even react, the spear pierced its chest, pinning it to the RV's hood.

"Aha! Got you!"

Jack excitedly waved his fist, the thrill of revenge making his body tremble uncontrollably.

The ogre let out a painful howl, clutching the spear to its chest, trying to pull it out.

But the spear had barbs, so the more it struggled, the more stuck it became.

"roar!"

The wings behind it flapped wildly.

With its arms outstretched and its two claws gripping the fenders on both sides of the vehicle, it managed to tear off the entire hood of the RV with its terrifying strength.

The cannibal soared into the sky, carrying the deformed hood.

The rope spun rapidly in the pickup truck's winch, decreasing as the altitude increased.

"Quick! Back up and pull it off!"

Jack slammed his fist on the roof of the car and yelled at his eldest son, who was driving.

The ogre gripped the spear tightly to its chest with both hands, its wings flapping incessantly as it flew backward and upward with all its might.

"Sizzle—"

The pickup truck's tires screeched against the ground, sending up pungent white smoke.

However, the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great.

The standoff lasted only a few seconds before the pickup truck's rear wheels were pulled off the ground by the force, causing the rear of the vehicle to lift up.

"not good!"

Before Jack and his son could react, the entire pickup truck was dragged over and overturned on the ground.

Their fate remains unknown.

……

On a side road of East Highway 9.

A sports car sped through the night.

Suren gripped the steering wheel with one hand and held her phone, which had no signal, in the other, her brow furrowed.

This road is like a maze, there aren't even any road signs, how am I supposed to find it?

"Alessa, can you sense it?"

In the shadows of the passenger seat, the little girl shook her head.

Suren felt somewhat frustrated; the feeling of having strength but nowhere to use it was unpleasant.

"Bang!"

Not far away, a loud noise suddenly broke the silence of the night.

Suren looked over upon hearing the sound.

In the distance, a dark figure was seen slowly flying into the sky, holding a long rope, with a pair of enormous wings standing out prominently behind it.

"Flying kites in the middle of the night? You seem to have quite the leisure."

Suren narrowed his eyes, a murderous intent rising within them.

Whether it encounters Patty or not, all it needs to do is kill it.

As he slammed on the brakes, he jerked both hands on the steering wheel.

The black sports car executed a perfect drift on the road, then sped off the road in the next second.

"There's no road ahead. Do you need me to pave one for you?"

Alessa's voice rang out.

"paving?"

Suren looked at the small mound rising from the wasteland ahead, and instead of stepping on the brakes, he floored the accelerator.

The sports car suddenly roared, making his hands go numb.

"That's for cowards."

A hint of madness appeared on Suren's face.

"Those two words don't exist in the devil's dictionary!"

As if sensing the driver's madness, this performance beast was like a demon unleashed from its heavy shackles, unleashing its pent-up ferocity upon the wilderness.

It seemed to be born for this kind of violent driving; the speedometer needle went straight up to full speed, breaking through the red zone and turning into a black streak of lightning as it crashed into the earthen mound.

"Buzz—"

Using the slope of the earthen mound, the sports car took off into the air under the moonlight.

At the peak of his ascent, Suren leaped out of the cockpit, turned around, and stomped heavily on the car, his body rising even higher.

His entire body surged with magical power, and a faint purple light appeared on his body, making him look eerie and dangerous.

"Boom—"

The sports car, having lost power, plummeted to the ground under the force of gravity, tumbling and disintegrating in the woods before finally turning into a burning fireball.

And in the night sky above the firelight,

"Bang!"

Suren's feet created a red ripple, and his figure transformed into a purplish-red afterimage, rushing straight into the distance.

【Demon Double Jump】: Can gather magical energy into a platform in mid-air to achieve a second jump.

He moved like a ghost in the moonlight, leaving a thin red trail behind him as he rapidly advanced toward the battlefield where the shadowy figure stood.

【Trickster - Instant Step】: Instantly unleashes magical power to perform a rapid displacement in any direction.

……

"No……"

Patty looked at the father and son, whose fate was unknown, and a look of worry flashed in her eyes.

But she couldn't save them, because the cannibal was already slowly descending, not far from her.

The cannibal ripped off the rope and slammed the deformed hood onto the pickup truck like it was trash.

It turned around, and its eyes, which it had gained by devouring humans, looked once again at Patty, who was standing in the middle of the road.

Looking at this fearless prey, the ogre revealed a cruel smile and forcefully pulled the spear out of its body with one hand.

"Pfft."

Ink splattered, and the spear left a hole in its chest. The tissue at the wound writhed wildly, but was quickly repaired.

It held the spear in its hand and pressed down on Patty step by step.

Its towering body completely shrouded the petite Patty in darkness.

The ogre raised his spear, the tip of which gently lifted Patty's chin, forcing him to look at his ugly, hideous face.

Patty was forced to look up and stare at the drooling monster up close, smelling the stench emanating from it, her body trembling slightly.

But there was no fear in her eyes.

"Come on..."

Patty gritted her teeth, her voice trembling, "If you're so capable, then eat faster..."

"because……"

"This will be your last dinner!"

The ogre paused, its eyes narrowing slightly; this disregard for it was an insult to it.

It can't smell the flavor it likes on this food.

That kind of breakdown, begging for mercy, the sweet fear that becomes addictive.

From beginning to end, the food stared at it with the same look it had when it looked at its own excrement.

This made it feel dull, even a little boring.

If that's the case, then there's no need to keep it for playing around.

"roar--"

It let out a low growl and suddenly stretched out its sharp claws, aiming straight for Patty's head.

Patty trembled all over, clenched her fists, and closed her eyes in despair, but the image of Suren's back when he rejected her kept flashing through her mind.

"You bastard! Even if you go to hell... I will absolutely... absolutely never let you go!"

In that instant, the claws of Patty were less than a centimeter away from his face.

The ogre's ears twitched slightly, as if it had heard something.

Suddenly, a howling sound, as if the air was being torn apart, came from the pitch-black night sky.

It looked up in surprise.

A crimson magic rapidly magnified in its pupils.
