Chapter 60 Limitations

60 Limitations

Rain stood atop the roof of his grandparent's house, the night enveloping him in its cloak of darkness. His keen eyes scanned the surroundings, and his senses heightened as he kept a vigilant watch over the village. The moon hung high in the sky behind many thick clouds, casting a dim glow upon the landscape below.

He listened intently to the sounds of the night, the chirping of crickets, the rustling of leaves in the gentle breeze. His gaze darted from one shadow to another, searching for any signs of movement or danger. The air was thick with anticipation, and his heart beat steadily in his chest.

Rain's mind was sharp; he knew that the beasts, though cunning and elusive, would reveal their presence through subtle clues—a rustle in the underbrush, a faint growl carried by the wind. He remained alert, ready to spring into action at a moment's notice.

As midnight approached, Rain felt a shift in the atmosphere, a heaviness that hung in the air. The hairs on the back of his neck stood on end, alerting him to the impending danger. His gaze swept the horizon, searching for any signs of disturbance.

Then, in the distance, a flickering light caught his attention. A solitary torch, its flame dancing in the darkness, pierced through the night like a beacon. Without hesitation, Rain tapped into his magic, summoning an earth platform beneath his feet.

Swiftly, he ascended into the air, soaring toward the source of the light. His heart pounded in his chest, adrenaline coursing through his veins. The wind whistled in his ears as he propelled himself forward, propelled by a sense of urgency and the need to protect his village.

The ground below blurred as Rain raced through the night sky, his eyes fixed on the distant torch. He could sense the threat lurking beneath its glow, the imminent danger that awaited. His mind raced with thoughts of strategy and preparedness, his determination unyielding.

His heart quickened with a mix of apprehension and determination as he recognized the unmistakable forms of armored beetles. These were no ordinary insects but formidable creatures with hardened exoskeletons and menacing pincers. Their presence signaled danger, a threat to the livelihood and safety of the village.

Sensing their impending doom, the monsters let out blood-curdling screams of agony, their piercing cries filling the night air. The weight of the earth immobilized them, leaving them vulnerable to Rain's next move.

Rain unleashed his strength without hesitation, channeling his mana into the ground. The earth responded to his command, exerting an incredible pressure on the trapped monsters. With a bone-crushing force, the hardened earth compressed around their limbs, causing unbearable pain.

The monsters writhed in anguish, their struggles futile against the unyielding grip of the earth. Each movement intensified their torment, further driving them to the brink of despair. The once fearsome creatures now found themselves at the mercy of Rain's merciless assault.

The cacophony of their agonized cries echoed throughout the surrounding area, causing their fellow beasts to recoil in fear. Sensing the impending danger, the remaining monsters, driven by their primal instincts, turned tail and fled, desperate to escape the fate that awaited their companions. Rain clicked his tongue while watching that. The work was far from over.
