Chapter 98: The Hundred-Armed Monster
Braid was incredibly efficient in his duties. By the next day, the investigation results were already on Key's desk.
According to the investigation, a beast horde was likely responsible for the village attack, as evidenced by the animal fur, and remnants of claws and fangs found at the scene.
After confirming this, Braid immediately set out to search the surrounding areas for the horde's trail, beginning from the village.
He quickly found a path of chaotic footprints and traces of blood.
Following these signs, he eventually discovered a cave deep within the forest.
However, while investigating the cave's interior, they were attacked by monsters and had to retreat temporarily.
Leaving some men to secure the cave, Braid hurried back to report the findings.
"These are the monsters Braid and his team encountered in the cave," Key said, pointing to several sketches on the table.
Sunan picked up the top sketch and raised an eyebrow.
It was a depiction of ferocious rats.
Ferocious rats are a type of beast known for their aggression and quickness, using their sharp incisors to gnaw and crush their prey.
