Chapter 182: First Battle in Another World

There is that feeling of freedom when you finally managed to get to do something freely which was previously restricted to be done in which in my case, it is the unrestrained usage of magic freely on the public. Now that we are in a place where magic is normally seen as a norm, using it in public is no longer a problem. As we are approaching the village, I noticed that the attackers of the village are not muscular humans but muscular green ogres wielding clubs and the like.

On the road to the village, I already saw lots of ripped body parts of humans and some mashed to pieces of human limbs. Now, I am quite sure that the villagers are now being slaughtered one by one in there and the more time to waste, the more villagers will die.

There was one magic that I have read before in the spells whenever I asked Blue to let me see some spells I can learn. This was the magic spell [Legs of Haste]. It increases your movement speed twice the amount of speed you can muster while running. Activating it is a little bit easy since it only needs you to let the mana in your body flow more in your legs and feet. I am not joking that it is easy. Since I already mastered using mana to enhance parts of my body, letting the mana only flow in your legs is much easier than using mana to enhance your body.

"[Legs of Haste!]"

The moment I tried the method, my speed burst out greatly and I was like riding a motorcycle at full speed as I am getting closer to the village. Seeing the nearest ogre holding a dead body of a man, I conjured an electric spark in my right hand and the burst water magic, [Water Torrent] to my left hand. Since water is a conductor of electricity and deals more pain and damage to anyone who was exposed to water, this should do the trick.

Releasing the [Water Torrent], the first ogre who got hit by it staggered when the water hits the body before his eyes suddenly became white after getting electrocuted by how many volts of electricity.

"One down!"

I pass by the houses and continue my way to the innermost part of the village. I stopped on the way when I saw some ogres destroying a house's entrance. I can still hear the cry of the kids inside. But before I can get to the battle stance, a large fireball exploded to the ogres, blasting them off the entrance of the house. When I look in the direction the fireball came, Yami was standing there, with his palms still smoking.

"What are you looking at? Go and find other people, don't just stand in there!" Yami glared at me before walking to the dazed ogres he blasted earlier.

Seeing Yami take care of the rest, I moved to the next area where a bunch of ogres is in sight too. However, Ishana is already doing her battle against the enemies as she blasts her magic to the enemies. It was all just a blast of magic so I can't tell what element of magic Ishana has, but she is doing well. She looked at me and smiled before she continues her battle against the orcs.

Since that area is also being taken care of, I headed to the next place which is the little town square. There, the female villagers are being gathered, a teenager, a wife, or a kid, as long as they are female, were being held captive there. The ogres are also gathered around the females, stopping them from escaping and blocking.

Are those monsters going to keep the girls as human cattle?! Unforgivable!

"Yuri, come out."

"What's up, Master?~"

"Here's the mana you want, now charm them all."

"Hai hai!"

SNAP!

Pink waves of gases float around the ogres who were busy with the women. They suddenly stop from their duties and stood there like idiots. Now that they are no longer holding their sanity in after being charmed by Yuri, I ignited the flames in my hands. To make sure that the females are not going to be injured, I went closer to them and ignite them one by one from the inside.

The moment their insides were ignited to flames, they will immediately break off from the charm magic and will scream in pain before they will fall to the ground, dead with their insides all reduced to ashes.

I repeated this method to the ogres one by one and kill them all. It took me a little bit of time before the ogres guarding the female villagers were killed and disposed of. The villagers did not expect what happened before their eyes and still in a daze.

"Everything will be alright," I reassure them.

A few ogres appear from the alley carrying a few unconscious girls. However, the moment they saw me with the girls, they started howling and pull out their clubs.

"They are now angry huh, however, you guys are small fries compared to the monsters I faced on the Tower of Babel. Let's see what you guys are made of! Yuri, make sure none of these monsters gets close to the girls! If they ever managed to get real close, charm and kill them!"

"Of course! For the sake of the precious mana, I will do it~"

With roars, the ogres started to charge towards my direction, while swinging their clubs like barbarians.

"Get roasted!"

SNAP!

Magic circles appeared above the ogres and Lightning strikes emerge from them, raining down to the charging ogres. It was a quick lethal strike, controlling them to hit the ogres in their weaknesses and vulnerable parts of their bodies.

They are too weak against lightning that they immediately died the moment the lightning strikes upon them. Of course, not all of them can die immediately from the lightning strikes due to their strong defenses and some have armors to protect them. But that doesn't mean I will just resort to the Lightning strikes to kill them off.

"Die."

The remaining ogres who were not able to move after the lightning strikes drew their last breath as flames burned their bodies, turning all of their bodies to ashes.

After making sure that no ogres will attack after the ruckus I made, I released the female villagers from their restraints. I asked Inari-sama to help guard them alongside Yuri on the side. I didn't pull out Yuto since he is an incubus and the villagers are all female. Even if he already said that he is not interested in women, incubus instincts might kick in and I heard that they can't control it if it is too strong.

Screams are still echoing around the village so there must be enemies left behind that are still attacking the villagers, therefore, I made a final swoop in the village.

...

Yami and Ishana already cleared most of the village's roads. The one I hear screaming is someone attacked by the last ogre alive. Killing it as easy as it let down its defenses since all of its attention is focused on the villagers.

It was already sunset that we declared the perimeter of the village safe. Only a small amount of men survive the ordeal but most of them are wounded after fighting the ogres. The rest are now corpses and dismembered parts of them due to their main body being squashed to paste and no longer recognizable via physical means. The families of the deceased all cried seeing their deaths while the surviving male villagers held back their tears as they saw the other male villagers' corpse sprawled out on the ground.

As for the ogre's bodies, they decided to keep it since they can report it to the city guards and administration offices in the city to gain some compensation for the ogre rampage incident.

"Looks like we have no luck finding those lost people here in this village. If they have stayed here if they are male, they were most likely dead while if they are female, they should be one of the girls we rescued but from what I see after the rescue, most of them do not resemble any Japanese girls at all," Ishana said.

"No luck huh, this might take us a bit more time to find a single Japanese person around here. Even a village has been almost destroyed, what if they were in the forest?" Yami scratches his head.

"Fortunately, we don't need to search for any casualties in the forest we just went out earlier. The forest we entered does not have any signs of anyone coming from the portal and explored the forest. They must have been transported here in random locations so this is not the only place we need to look. We have to search far and wide to look for 150 people and we are not sure how many died from them," I revealed to them.

"How did you know? Do you have perhaps a spell that can map out the surroundings or a bird's eye view magic? You have acted first earlier so maybe you have one to immediately see the surroundings of us?"

"Let's just say I have that sort of magic, but that is not much. Relying on it is not that easy as it is quite troublesome to use."

"Ha! Excuses. That is just pathetic. If you can't use it properly, you shouldn't have learned it!"

I frowned hearing this. Yami wanted to make some trouble again with me?
