A Core Ship From The Start

"As a monster, to plead for mercy like a human—doesn’t it make you sick?"

While he spoke, Duanmu Huai clenched his right hand tightly. Feeling the force of his fist, the girl’s face grew even paler. Her expression twisted in pain, and like a helpless little animal, she desperately beat against Duanmu Huai’s hand. But Duanmu Huai merely savored her struggles, his right hand tightening slowly.

"Cry, scream, wail! And then die! Filthy alien! There’s no place for your kind here! Feel the terror and wrath of the Tribunal, and perish in despair!"

"Ugh... Ah... Aaah..."

By now, the girl’s eyes had rolled back, her mouth gaping wide, a swollen tongue protruding as drool dripped uncontrollably from the corners. Her delicate, pitiful figure convulsed and squirmed in Duanmu Huai’s grasp, kicking at him wildly with her small legs. Yet Duanmu Huai observed everything coldly, as though what he held was nothing more than a worthless lab rat.

Then, veins bulged along Duanmu Huai’s arm, and his right hand clenched forcefully!

"Crunch!"

With the crisp sound of bones breaking, the girl’s struggles ceased. Her head drooped like a broken doll. At that moment, her entire form started to dissolve, melting away like a wax sculpture consumed by flames. She turned into a thick black liquid resembling shadow, dripping from Duanmu Huai’s hand to the floor before vanishing without a trace.

"Hmph, nothing special."
