I’m Not That Kind of Talent - Chapter 87
87. Hyuga, not Hyuga (3)
There was no hesitation in his actions as he knew the location of the thread. Rather, they went beyond avoiding the thread and used the installed thread.
He flexibly moves across the thread, leading the monsters to be cut off, or directly chopping them up, controlling his stamina. As I got used to it, sometimes I pushed the monster in at the moment the nearby 2nd Corps members swung the thread.
Ben’s expression gradually changed strangely as he watched the situation while holding his visitation bag tightly.
‘The tide has changed.’
The behavior of the monsters that had been charging recklessly without regard for direction became passive. Due to Demon’s characteristics, the attitude of those guys was like setting the stage for them to go on a rampage even more.
‘But it’s not enough.’
Still, it is not enough. Even though they killed so many, there didn’t seem to be much difference in the number of monsters.
When will support come? Was 15 minutes this long?
“Cough!”
“Daemon!”
“Do not come!”
Deon stopped Ben, who was trying to rush towards him, and stepped on the dagger between the monster’s eyes, pushing it deeper. Deon used the recoil to throw himself backwards and enter the room.
The monster, unable to overcome its running speed, is cut by the thread and falls with a patter. In the midst of the pouring debris, Deon quietly wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. It was covered in something I couldn’t tell if it was the monster’s blood or my own blood.
“I hope you’re okay….”
“It’s no big deal.”
I tried my best to avoid a head-on collision, but it seems like the shock eventually piled up inside my body and exploded like this.
Deon coughed out the blood that had accumulated inside him once more and suddenly stopped moving as a thought crossed his mind. damn. Cursing words suddenly burst out.
‘I just had to hold on a little longer.’
The atmosphere that had been barely brought about had changed. The being that seemed the strongest showed blood. Deon gritted his teeth as the monster’s attack, which had faltered, became stronger again… no, stronger than before.
‘I think the 15 minutes are almost up.’
I roughly gathered myself, pulled out a new dagger, and walked out of the room. He grabs a nearby monster and randomly stabs it with his dagger as if taking out his anger.
Even though it seemed like they were hacking at random, they were deliberately hiding it. We have to be more cruel to them in order for them to wince. Only then can we bring the flow back.
“But… Demon, you don’t seem to be feeling well…!”
“….”
“If it’s enough time to get a medical examination, you can earn enough with the 2nd Corps Commander and the 2nd Corps, so it’s better to get a medical examination and move on…” “….”
“
Demon sir!”
Deon turned around without hesitation and threw his dagger. Sigh! The dagger grazed Ben’s cheek and became lodged in the carriage wall.
Blood trickled down his cheek and Ben quickly closed his mouth.
It’s not just because of the dagger, but because the red eyes staring at me are shining with a dark and slimy life.
“shut up. “It’s disturbing.”
“….”
“I would have definitely said it was no big deal.”
Even though there is a distance, a low growling voice clearly touches the eardrums.
The monster’s blood seemed to be covering his face and blocking his vision, and his narrowed eyes were clearly focused on him, unable to hide the overflowing madness even in that state.
“You didn’t expect this anyway, right?”
“…!”
The arm holding the visitation bag trembled. Ben’s eyes shake violently, as if there was an earthquake.
Deon, who looked at him with a cold expression as he couldn’t answer and just pursed his lips, quietly opened his mouth.
Rather than anger, an emotion closer to patheticness was evident in his voice, as if it was not worth getting angry about.
“Behave properly.”
Don’t be clumsy.
“….”
“….”
There was a short silence against the noisy background, and Deon was the first to look away.
He started moving again, expressing pure satisfaction that the annoying voice had disappeared, but it didn’t last long.
“Daemon!!”
There was no answer anymore. Deon turned around and raised an eyebrow as if he was really going to kill me this time.
back!! behind!
Ben was rushing towards him, screaming and calling out to him.
As if he was in such a hurry, he used his visiting bag as a shield and rushed out, trying to figure out where the thread might be, before he could reach Deon.
Suddenly,
blood splattered.
Deon, who had just turned a monster into a rag, slowly looks back. There, another monster was stopped with a dagger stabbed in a vital spot.
Deon, who realized that the monster’s hand was reaching towards his head, tilted his head as if he was interested, then smiled brightly and took a step back. Soon, cuts appeared all over the monster’s body and blood began to splatter.
“…under.”
A monster that became tattered in no time.
It clearly resembled his hand, but it was definitely not his work. Deon realized who was coming and called the other person’s name with an unexpected smile on his face.
“Silua.”
“Hello, Daemon! “It’s been a while!”
***
I woke up to a shocking sight. In a daze, I looked back and forth between the miserable corpse of the monster and the woman in front of me.
A cool, short bob haircut. A dagger in both hands. In addition to the vertically slit pupils that accentuate the seemingly lost spirit, the inside of these cruel hands!
My head screamed that I should never have anything to do with that demon, but sadly, I already knew her.
7th Corps Commander Silua.
He uses a dagger and is the corps commander in charge of the border between the human world and the demon world along with the 9th corps commander… Is it okay for him to be here now?
“I hurried over after hearing that Demon was enjoying a party alone in a place like this!”
“…Where did you hear that?”
“The Demon King told me!”
“….”
I looked around quietly.
A thread that takes on a specific shape and forms a space. A swarm of monsters flowing endlessly into it.
It’s a trap. It was also a trap with us as bait.
Although my memory was temporarily lost due to the alcohol, I can assure you that this was not a party.
‘Demon King…!’
The rest are struggling to survive, but it’s a party…
no, it’s not. It would be more likely that Silua just accepted it as a party of her own accord.
I didn’t know how that crazy demon would react, so instead of getting angry, I suppressed even a sigh and muttered as if I was lamenting.
“How did you get in here?…”
“Oh, it’s no big deal. Like this—”
Silua swings her dagger, locates the threads, and then presses one of them with her dagger to open up space. There was a crack in the dagger, but she ignored it and slipped her body into the crack to escape the trap and smiled brightly as she looked at us from the outside.
“You can do it like this.”
“…I guess I’ll have to install it tighter next time.”
Does it make sense that the threads used to trap and cut down enemies are stretched even a little?
Devellania, who was watching from a little distance away, glared at his corps members.
Anyway, as I was belatedly realizing the uncomfortable state of my body and removing the unidentified pieces of flesh that had stuck to me, Silua, who had come back in and was looking at my blood-soaked and shabby appearance with sparkling eyes, cautiously opened her mouth.
“Oh, by the way, Demon. There’s a monster behind you…”
Pow!!
Patter.
“…?!”
“…there was.”
Wow! what’s this!!
I put aside Silua’s somewhat disappointed voice and quickly turned around.
A sound of something being smashed was heard from the rear left, and debris of something came pouring out! Before I had time to shake off the red flesh that had stuck to my body, I turned around and saw a pale Ben come into view.
He was desperately avoiding my gaze, wondering what was bothering him so much.
I looked at him curiously, then lowered my gaze a little… and saw a blood-stained visit bag.
I think that was clearly clear in my memory…
‘Yeah, he was crazy too.’
Given the circumstances, it seems like the monster’s head was smashed with that hard visiting bag. Maybe it’s for me.
I’m grateful… but it’s scary.
“I’m sorry. Demon, that’s…”
I didn’t say anything yet.
I just stared at Ben, who looked at me with a pale look on his face, started talking gibberish, and then closed his mouth. Her closed lips were trembling.
‘Why are you apologizing after protecting me as much as I can?’
The question couldn’t come out of my mouth. Because Silua had grabbed him by the collar earlier.
The vertically slit pupils glared fiercely at Ben.
“If you know you did something wrong, you should kneel. How dare you ignore Demon?”
“….”
“Do you think Demon didn’t know that?”
Why are you suddenly so angry? awfully.
And ignoring it. I’m not ignoring it. Thanks to you, I survived.
‘If I had known there was a monster behind me, I would have jumped away and avoided it long ago. I wouldn’t have stood idly by.’
As expected of a corps commander, his body was so violent that he naturally cringed, but Ben was no slouch either. He even flinched for a moment, then raised his hand and grabbed Silua’s wrist, which was holding her by the collar, and looked straight into her eyes.
“The person I apologize to is Demon, not the 7th Corps Commander.”
“…You arrogant. Is it because he was once the devil’s personal doctor? “If I keep doing this, I’ll be rude to Demon.”
“…So I was apologizing for my rudeness. “Let go of this hand.”
“Stiff all the way. “What if I get really angry and kill you?”
“Are you going to break the restrictions? My person in charge is Commander 0 Corps. “It means that only the Demon King and Demon, the commander of the 0 Corps, have the right to punish me.”
Basically, attending doctors are restricted from killing people carelessly unless they fail to perform their duties properly. If the patient performed his or her role properly or not, it is up to the patient in charge to decide whether or not he or she deserves to die.
This will be the basis for Ben to attack other corps commanders.
As the patient in charge, I am not brave enough to treat him carelessly, and other corps commanders cannot kill him due to restrictions.
‘….’
If you get involved in their fight, you won’t be able to get rid of even a single bone. I kept my mouth shut.
Silua, who was raising her dagger in annoyance, glances at me and then lowers her hand and wheezes. It was clearly visible that Ben was trying to suppress his frustration, but he didn’t let it go and opened his mouth again.
“The reason you were angry in the first place was not because you ignored Demon-sama, but because you couldn’t see Demon-sama tearing the monster to death.”
Stop that. What are we supposed to do in a place full of monsters now?
Even while those two were fighting, Develania and the 2nd Corps were moving hard, but for some reason, the spirit of the monsters was coming back to life.
It seems that Develania also felt that fact. He suddenly threw the broken pieces of the monster between the two and let out an irritated voice.
“Aren’t you going to do it? What about boundaries? Is coming here like this just a fight? “Are you here to disturb me?”
“Ah, was Develania also there? I left the boundary line to my adjutant. Even the Demon Lord said it would probably be okay. “You said the Empire has no time to attack here.”
“So you came here because the Demon King sent you?”
“yes! “I’ve been communicating with the Demon King for the past few days, whining that I’m bored, and he sent me this.”
I was whining to the devil…
Anyway, is it really okay for this to happen? Like her, I heard that the commander of the 9th Corps, who is in charge of the border line, has been sitting in the devil’s castle even before I came.
This means that there is currently no corps commander on the border with the human world. What are you going to do if someone who is really a ‘hero’ attacks you?
Devellania seemed speechless as well, so she pursed her lips for a moment before sighing and stroking her hair.
“Anyway, if you don’t want to help, why don’t you go back?”
“Of course I will help! Ah, before that, I will help you after seeing that Demon-sama has just defeated one monster!”
“…yes?”
Why am I suddenly…?
I was startled and reflexively looked at Silua, and our eyes met.
And I was able to witness in real time the eyes that were sparkling with crazy excitement gradually turning dull and dying.
Silua, who quickly lost her vitality and became droopy, muttered in a very disappointed voice.
“…It’s not Demon….”
“…?”
