Unfortunately, while we found a lot of people, most of them had died.

They were either buried alive or crushed to pieces. Either way, they all died in some gruesome manner.

My heart was heavy. I had lost count of how many corpses we had dug out of the debris and rubble. My hands had gone numb and were covered in countless scratches, but I couldn't dare to stop even for a second. There were still people who needed rescuing, and time was of the essence.

While we searched, another landslide occurred, but this one was smaller and weaker than the previous one. Rufus and I were able to take Rin to a safe spot while we waited for it to subside.
