章 97: Monster (part 1)

As soon as he saw Yoichi charging towards it on horseback, the fierce snake demon roared in his direction, emitting a loud hiss and pulling its huge tongue out of its mouth.

Unlike a normal snake, that dark demon's tongue was equipped with a second mouth, smaller and full of sharp teeth. The inside of the palate and the long teeth were soaked with the blood of its victims.

With a simple glance, Yoichi was able to see what had happened behind the village attacker: dozens of massacred bodies were scattered in the middle of the street. Women, men, and children, that being had killed whoever was on its way.

"Yoichi, get out of there!" Shioko yelled again. This time, his partner's screams caused the young tamer to wake up from his trance. When he realized that the demon was about to launch a frontal attack, he immediately dismounted from Ichiro, jumping on the sand.
