The monster towered above the orphan as it possessed the same height of the tall trees of the forest where we had rescued him. Wings filled with dull feathers were attached to its back alongside its strong legs that could produce the highest jumps. Muscles bulged out of its veins, catching up to the orphans making the previous large distance between them into nothing.
I squeezed Luke's sleeve even tighter, knowing they would die if we didn't step in. Walking away would mean indirectly killing them when I could have helped. What if they also turned into those s-class humanoids with vengeance, unwilling to accept their deaths like those reincarnated people?
Only spells or special weapons that consumed large amounts of mana could kill them. They currently had no power to fight back unlike the students at this school with a somewhat abundant amount of mana or else they wouldn't be running. But did I really want to put my life on a tethering cliff after getting out of another one?
"Let's go into the school," Luke ignored their pleas for help.
"We're not going to help them?" I managed to squeak out.
Luke faced me with disapproval, "Do you have enough mana to help them out after charging the gate? If you really want to help them, it's better to call some teachers here instead."
Unfortunately, Luke was right. Even if we interfered, there was nothing we could do for them except distract the monster for a few minutes. With Luke raising out our school entrance pass, the gate grandly opened to welcome us inside.
Normally the pass wasn't needed since we travelled by hover car or the teleportation gate, but the school distributed them just in case. Each of us in elementary school had a pass inside our marble that allowed the school to identify who we were. Many children from powerful families attended the school, meaning the possibility of a potential kidnapping was that much higher.
"Nooooo! Mul!" His fellow escapee cried.
My head went blank while my body was paralyzed from watching the monster snap off the boy's arm like a toy. It was too cruel! It was playing with the boy before deciding to kill its prey. The boy screamed in terror as his peers made no impact from jabbing the monster's toes with their knives.
Blood spurted out from the missing arm before the monster grinned to snap off a leg this time. The boy twisted and turned as much as he could with his torso. He was either going to slowly die from blood loss or from being dropped from below the height of clouds near him. The monster shook him like a rattle before looking down at the other orphans trying to save him.
"Did you know?" His faint voice rang inside my head.
"We're raised to become weapons. They train us to get rid of human emotions in school. But I can't. I didn't come to the orphanage as a newborn like the others. I know a better life where I had a family that loved me," he muttered inside the hover car on the way to Luke's mansion while he was half-conscious.
"What happened to your family?" I softly whispered while on lookout.
"My parents were both soldiers. But they never wanted me to go through the same experience as them. They made me study hard to get into a higher-ranking school to secure my future," his face had tears streaming down before his consciousness left him again.
My eyes widened as the monster opened its mouth and took a big bite, snapping the boy's body in half. The upper half of his body was chewed inside the monster's mouth while the lower half fell onto the ground. The sounds of loud crunching from his bones brutally crushed froze the rest of the attacks from the orphans. However, the screams for help remained with his strong will to live.
When he stopped screaming with one final gulp, we all watched the body pass through the neck and into the stomach. My knees lost its strength as I leaned onto Luke for support. With no mercy, the monster picked up the other half of the body and smiled to enjoy the rest of its meal.
My eyes welled with tears as he would never have the chance to realize his dream of living a normal life. Would things be different if I rushed into the school to get help instead of being frozen in fear? Maybe if I paid more attention to what was behind me, I could have helped them much earlier.
The sound of heavy breaths and footsteps sprinting towards the gate brought me back to my senses. The orphans quickly unfroze from their training as they rushed towards us when the monster looked down to stare at them. The monster was starting to look for its next meal and toy, chasing the running orphans.
But why was the monster looking at me? Its eyes were fixated on me as it ran towards where I stood rather than chasing the orphans after it sniffed the air. I couldn't be that I was the next target, was I?
"Run into the school! There's a barrier that can fend against even s-class monsters!" Luke pulled me with him.
"You're the monster's next target," Luke screamed as I was forced to run with him.
