As strong as Vale was compared to each individual villager, he didn't possess near the required strength to survive a continuous onslaught.
So, after slicing and dicing three more, Vale reinforced his legs and ran up the side of a half-charred building that bordered Awilix's Eclipse.
Soon after, his warriors followed suit, jumping on neighboring buildings' roofs and throwing whatever they could at the villagers below.
A few had even commandeered Ophelia's stem bows and were shooting back at the villagers, who all seemed terrified, but also fearless…
'Like they possessed the fear of death, but don't care if they die...'
Vale didn't entirely know how to describe the people before him, but they were anything but sane.
Vale stowed his sword away in the Nexus of Beginnings, dragging out his whip and beginning to unleash attacks into the crowd below.
Lash after lash bit into the humans.
None of his strikes were particularly lethal, but each blow he landed caused severe damage.
