The monsters were beings far too similar yet different from ones I knew well.
'They really look like harpies.'
If harpies had a male form instead of just female, they'd definitely look like that. My subordinates and I held our breath and quietly observed them.
"Anyone know them?"
"..."
No one answered. Not just the hunters and Lune, but even Eila seemed to be seeing them for the first time. In the end, none of us knew the identity of these monsters.
'Bird-head humans.'
That's exactly how I could describe them. Above the neck was an enlarged crow's head, but below that was a human body.
'How do they not even have wings?'
Naked humans with just bird heads attached, so I thought maybe they were masks, but I changed my mind when they started tearing with the beaks in their mouths.
"Soon we'll be at the land with humans-ras."
"We'll attack as soon as the boss returns-ras."
"...Why the hell do those bastards talk like that?"
