Chapter 262: Good job, kid

The wind rushed past his face as he plummeted toward the ground. As he fell, he spotted a group of people huddled together near a building. There were monsters surrounding them, and they were clearly about to be overwhelmed.

John pulled out his Reaper's Edge and propelled himself towards the monsters with a shockwave. He landed on top of a monster, crushing its head under his foot.

The people looked up at him in surprise.

"I'm here to help!" John shouted as he began cutting down the monsters around him.

The people cheered as they joined the fight.

"Thank you, stranger! We owe you our lives!" A man in his 50s said as he fought beside John.

John nodded as he continued to fight.

As John fought, he noticed a monster creeping up behind the man. He quickly swung his blade, decapitating the monster.

The man turned around and saw the monster lying dead behind him. He looked at John with a grateful expression.
