63. The Supermodel's Lightning Strike
Norn looked up abruptly, his gaze meeting those sharp yellow pupils.
The next second, a sharp spearhead pierced straight at Norn.
clang!
Norn drew his sword to parry, and sparks flew as the blade met the spearhead. Everyone present saw the lizardman's figure.
"Found them! They're here..."
Before the lizardman could finish speaking, Norn kicked him away, smashing through several bricks and shaking down some dust from the roof.
Norn summoned two orbs of light, illuminating the bloodless faces of the three people on the ground: the lizard-like demi-humans covered in bluish-green scales, and Batel.
"What was found? Where did the sound come from?"
"There, there is light!"
"Hurry, those people are over there!"
The sound of hurried footsteps came quickly, and then a pig-man, a dog-headed man, and two lizardmen appeared in the line of sight.
"It's all over, what do we do now, Father!" The two sons looked at Batel in horror.
Batel didn't speak; despite the lingering pain in his abdomen, he drew his sword.
"We lured them here, gentlemen. While there aren't many of them yet, I'll hold them off. Please take my two sons with you. I'm sorry."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the burly pig-man bared his protruding tusks and raised his warhammer to smash it down on Batel.
The warhammer crashed to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust and thatch, leaving a spiderweb-like pattern of cracks in the earth.
Bartel dodged the attack and raised his longsword to stab the pigman's throat, but it bit him down.
The pig-man kicked Batel to the ground, stomped on him, turned and spat out the longsword, then said to his companion, "Don't just stand there! Go to the carriage!"
As he spoke, the pigman increased the pressure. Bartel held on tightly to its feet with both hands, but couldn't budge an inch. His face turned purplish-red, and he was about to be crushed to death. Norn shouted:
"Close your eyes!"
Watch your eyes!
Three orbs of light instantly took shape, began to expand rapidly, and then burst forth with dazzling light.
The entire house, along with the area outside, was illuminated as bright as day, making several demi-humans dizzy from the light.
Bartel opened his eyes, and taking advantage of the pigman's momentary lapse in attention, he pushed away the big foot and rolled away to escape.
"Damn it! That human escaped!"
"Damn it, what was that?! My eyes are killing me!"
"Father! Father! I can't see anymore, where are you?"
Batel's youngest son was slow to react and did not close his eyes in time. His eyes were so bright that they started to tear up, and his eyeballs were covered with blood vessels.
Batel hoisted his son onto his shoulder, hopped onto the carriage with his eldest son, and shouted back to Norn and the others, "You guys better run too!"
After saying that, the eldest son grabbed the whip and lashed the horse's rump hard. The horse neighed and began to gallop with all its might.
Because their carriage was parked deep inside the house, the demi-humans were unable to escape and recovered from their blindness.
Norn drank several bottles of mana-restoring potions that he had taken from the carriage, finishing one bottle in one gulp.
Those few orbs of light almost depleted Norn's magic power, and even after drinking a potion, it will take at least three minutes to fully replenish it.
Then several more demi-humans rode over on horseback and surrounded the house, making escape impossible.
Their leader was a burly cat-man whose sharp, vertical pupils swept over Norn and his companion. He asked, "Where are the others?"
"They just escaped! These two are their partners!" the pig-man said angrily, his red eyes wide.
"This human is not to be underestimated! He knows magic!" the lizardman warned.
"It got away?! What are you all standing around for?! Why aren't you chasing after it?!" the cat-man roared angrily, then picked a few of its subordinates. "You go after it, we'll handle things here!"
The men nodded and turned their horses to chase after them.
The cat-man dismounted and drew the long, thin sword from his waist.
Seeing Xize pointing his sword at him, the cat-man's anger intensified.
"You, a demi-human, are actually siding with humans? Don't you feel ashamed?!"
"I'm just doing this for money. This young man is my employer. If he dies, will you pay me?"
"Hmph! All kobolds are the same, wagging their tails at whoever has the meat. Oh, sorry, except for you, Bob."
The kobold named Bob glanced helplessly at his leader.
The cat-man's agile figure swiftly rushed towards Xize, his sword flashing with a cold light as he thrust forward.
Xize dodged and parried with his sword, but because the cat-man's attack speed was too fast, he could not find an opportunity to counterattack.
Meanwhile, Norn's situation was not optimistic either. The other demi-humans seemed confident that the cat people could handle Caesar, and all of them pointed the finger at Norn.
Even though Norn's physical abilities had reached the level of a Gold-level adventurer after his relentless training with the human-faced monkey, he knew he was no match for so many well-trained demi-humans.

【Magic Power: 23/63】
This magical power is barely enough to unleash a lightning strike that can paralyze a person.
Norn didn't intend to use this precious spell on these grunts. The greatest advantage of the Lightning Strike was its extreme speed, making it almost impossible for anyone to dodge.
He aimed his right hand at the cat-man entangled with Caesar, and a white snake instantly struck it.
"Ughhhhh!!!"
The cat-man's body tensed up, its yellow fur bristled, and it collapsed to the ground, convulsing uncontrollably.
"My God! This guy can even use lightning magic!"
"Kill him quickly!"
The demi-humans charged toward Norn, brandishing various weapons. Norn managed to repel the first few who were charging ahead before retreating. Caesar rushed forward in time to stop the pursuing enemies.
At this moment, Norn discovered that Caesar was much more capable than he had imagined. His agile figure allowed him to hold his own against several opponents simultaneously. No wonder Duke William had recommended him to him.
The sounds of clashing swords filled the room like raindrops. Under Caesar's cover, Norn dealt with them with ease, and soon the next shot was fully charged.
Norn seized the opportunity and electrocuted the lizardman to the ground. Several demi-humans tried to pull it up, but were also electrocuted and pulled their hands back.
"What should we do? This mage is too troublesome, and this kobold is difficult to deal with as well."
Seeing that they were no match for the enemy, the fighting spirit of the several demi-humans waned, but none of them dared to suggest retreating.
Until the cat-man who was first electrocuted shakily stood up and shouted to them, "Retreat, retreat!"
Upon receiving the order, the demi-humans responded immediately, quickly helping the fallen lizardman to his feet. Several demi-humans rushed over to help the catman get off and onto his horse.
Norn and his men didn't intend to give chase; they simply watched silently as the animals mounted their horses and fled.
Before leaving, the cat-man uttered a harsh threat: "Don't let me see you again! Otherwise, I'll pierce your throats with my sword!"
As the sound of hooves faded into the distance, Xize finally plopped down on the ground, tongue lolling out, "That scared me to death! It's been so long since I've fought like this."
