185. What a terrible, terrifying world is this?
“You tricked us!”
A fit of shouting erupted from the group that followed us. I looked back at them once and smiled.
[Of course.]
It wouldn’t have been easy to get out of the city with a massacre if you wanted to, but I didn’t expect this clumsy stealth to last too long. One day his identity will be revealed.
When that time comes, the things we’ve done will come back like boomerangs. So it’s better to make accidents that you can handle. The problem would be bigger if the lord’s direct troops were annihilated.
It’s just a clumsy newcomer, there’s no big problem even if you wipe it out. It’s not like they died in the city, it’s just normal for adventurers to go out and get lost. There are a few rookie soldiers mixed in, but that’s about it.
[Could anyone else besides nerds like you be fooled by these lame lies? It’s more surprising that I now know that this is a lie.]
“What, this bastard…”
The adventurer standing at the forefront drew his weapon in a huff. Even that action is so clumsy that I sigh. The enemy has already been identified, but only now draws out the weapon?
It’s really pathetic. I looked at the spirited adventurer with eyes mixed with sympathy. So you don’t even know that you cut your own throat like that.
“It went well. Catch you, stand…”
With his mouth still chattering busily, the adventurer’s head fell off. The tongue, moving in an orderly manner, could no longer vomit words, but made a hissing sound.
An attack far beyond the perpetrator’s awareness. The opponent couldn’t even see the action of Cream inserting the sword. It is truly a swordsmanship that seems to have realized the ultimate in romance. No, should I call it a lead technique?
“Must, do, do, do it like this?”
[No. Because I just wanted to experience it once. Do whatever you want now.]
As my performance has improved, I can now freely use this skill that puts a load on my weapon. Truly a great development. Ha, I’m not a sword with a lot of tears, but tears are about to come out.
However, these advanced martial arts techniques naturally consumed much more stamina compared to normal swinging. It’s not a strong enemy that the opponent needs to put in that much effort.
“Don’t worry, he is alone and we are many, so we can win…”
So, in an instant, Cream dug into the ranks and started the sword dance. The head of the soldier who was encouraging the surroundings was the first to run away, and the remaining ragtags dispersed, abandoning their desire to fight.
But Cream did not pursue them. Are we alone? Who does
“Kleurreu・・・・・.”
The ‘hunting dog’, which had quietly followed the knight until now, let out a low cry. Soon, the guy’s hair stood up stiffly, and his body began to increase several times in size.
I don’t know much about the pureblood beasts. I just know the basic common sense that the more human features are mixed in when transformed into a beast, the weaker the power as a pureblood.
Then, on the contrary, is such a powerful “Pure-blood” Capable of transforming into a quadrupedal beast without revealing human characteristics at all? I swallowed the exclamation in my heart.
The body, which was only a little big for a dog at best, quickly grew several times larger and cast a shadow over the area. Maybe it’s because I haven’t been able to transform lately. Does it look bigger than usual?
“Hey!”
“Kwaaang!”
He is 4.5 Meters tall when he is not standing on two feet, but on all fours. There were people who fell into incontinence or passed out one after another at the unrealistic howl of the huge beast.
There was no escape from the sacrifices. They are only harvested by the sword of the white girl who hides herself under the armor of a knight, or eaten by a beast with dark brown fur like chestnuts.
[No, hey. For a moment. Don’t eat!]
But I didn’t expect this. I stopped him in a fright after absorbing the soul from the corpse of a soldier that Choco had chewed on only the head.
Of course, although the power of absorbing my soul has become much stronger, after all killing others doesn’t come out as efficient as killing myself.
[In the first place, you don’t even like hunting the weak. Please give me some concessions.]
“Kwaaang!”
[Ah, noisy. Or say it mentally.]
“······Grrr.”
Choco, who blinked for a moment, quietly backed away. With her roar, most lost the will to fight, let alone the will to flee.
All that was left was to harvest the bowed ears. This year is a prosperous year. With a happy heart like a farmer, I suck in the soul…
[No, wait.]
Why is it so lacking? On the battlefield where the screams had stopped, I briefly counted the number of corpses and souls. Is it right? Even if you lose a little bit because of chocolate, in the old days, it was enough to be full.
But, um, I feel like I’m lacking. It was as if I cooked one ramen, but this wasn’t enough, but I cooked another one, and it was too much, such a vague hunger.
Of course, these senses belong to the soul, not the body, so there is no need to eat more, and if you want to eat, there is nothing you can’t eat.
Has your belly gotten bigger, no? This doesn’t sound good, so let’s say it’s great.
“Not enough? Shall we look for more?”
[No, it’s okay. Even if it’s not right away, if you stay here, you’ll be sick of meeting people.]
Anyway, unless it’s cream, the taste of the spirits is all mild. I also prefer quantity over quality, so if you wander around the empire, you’ll be able to eat a full meal anyway.
“Greedy! You stole my share and ate it too!”
[No, weren’t you fond of hunting strong people in the first place? What do you do by catching these little ones?]
“Ugh… Then, if a strong person comes out, will you yield?”
I pondered for a while. Most of the strong in the empire are humans, right? And the strong will generally build up discipline, and of course the soul will be delicious.
[No.]
“Are you kidding me?!”
Oops, I’ll bite you. Of course, if the two of us quarreled, Cream would take my side, but since I was a benevolent person, I decided to listen to Choco’s protests.
It’s not like he’s going to go wild all of a sudden… Hmmm. Anyway, I came up with a reasonable compromise.
[Let me hit the last hit. Aren’t you going to eat your soul?]
“The last hit?”
[Well, that’s why it doesn’t matter if I fight, but please let me kill you. And if you eat meat and I eat soul, wouldn’t this be a win-win?]
For a rushed idea, it was a better plan than I thought. Choco also seemed to be thinking for a while, but then she nodded her head disapprovingly.
“So what? So what is a win-win?”
From noble mtl dot com
[This is why other worlds.]
Me and Choco glared at each other for a while, then I quit first. Ugh, what are you doing with a child. As an adult, I have to act maturely.
“Bee.”
Choco stuck out her tongue from behind, but she wasn’t angry at all ······. Yes, really I thought about why the sword’s field of view was 360 degrees and turned my head.
Crim, who threw off the armor he had been wearing for camouflage, returned to his light clothes and looked around. I then threw her words at her with a sneak peek at her.
[What are you going to do now?]
“For the time being, it would be good to go to the city, no, right?”
[Are you sure? I came here with such a splendid display.]
Wouldn’t our bounty increase a bit if the deaths of the adventurers were known? Of course, we usually don’t draw the attention of others that much, but it’s still good to avoid getting into trouble.
Of course, ‘good things’ like getting Solium might happen, but it’s true that playing hard was fun at first, but now it’s getting annoying.
Even if the other person says something that gets on my nerves, even if the other person uses weak power, I can’t punish the other person. Killing someone else is a sin in itself, and is hostile to others.
What a terrible, terrifying world is this? This reality, I can’t handle it. So for the time being, I plan to leave civilization and work as a natural person.
[By the way, will you be okay? Even if there is no city to use as a milestone?]
“I don’t know the geography, but I know the way.”
[In that case.]
No matter how much I think about it, it sounds like bullsh*t, but since Cream has shown me so far, I nod my head without any objection. Well, what if I get lost? There is no time limit or anything.
In addition, Cream has always moved in a straight line and the shortest path. In the deep forest, where even people can’t reach milestones, she always reached her destination without a compass or map.
It was a superficial wayfinding ability that could not be simply explained as ‘knowing the way’. If she is like that, she will be able to reach the place she wants, even in unfamiliar imperial lands.
“Yes, India, I will. Again.”
