I’m Not That Kind of Talent - Chapter 88

88. A vacation that is not a vacation (4)

“You are not the demon I wanted…!”

“….”

“It was clearly ‘that’ Demon just a moment ago…! why? why?”

…I really don’t know why you react like that.

Silua, who had been running wild for a while as if she didn’t feel my gaze as if she was looking at me like she was crazy, suddenly grabbed a nearby monster. And the actions that followed left me speechless for a moment.

A monster thrust right in front of your nose. Eyes that are bloodshot and full of things that I don’t know whether it’s anticipation or hope, and even hint of madness at a glance.

“Now, Demon. There is a monster here! “Hurry and grant me the rest of death with that dagger!”

“….”

After the silence, there was a step back.

This time there was no need to hesitate in carrying out the action.

Ben was also backing away with a tired look on his face, and Develania immediately made a disgusted expression and ran away to deal with the monster again.

“Daemon? Why do you avoid it? Please show ‘that’ side again!”

I don’t know, man. I don’t know what you want, and even if I did, I don’t want to show it to you.

Of course, you can’t say that thought outright.

I cautiously opened my mouth, desperately avoiding the gaze of Silua, who was breathing heavily in anticipation. Something that can somehow avoid this crazy situation right now.

“First of all….”

“First of all?”

“This is not the situation right now….”

“Ah! “You must have been annoyed by the noise around you!”

That’s why the excitement was broken!

Silua’s face brightened as if she had received a clear answer.

The two daggers spinning in my hands were sheathed, and my empty hands lightly clashed together.

match.

─People holding daggers like her came out from all directions.

….

“…You’re crazy, you’re crazy. “No matter how much support we provide, what if they throw away their boundaries and come here?”

“You didn’t throw me away and come here? “You left your adjutant behind?”

“Do you think that all you have to do is leave your adjutant behind? You brought the whole army with you! I feel sorry for the 7th Corps Commander’s adjutant. “You must be going through such a hard time right now….”

“Thanks to you, it was solid support. The attending doctor only thinks about the patients in charge, right? “Demon, can’t you see that you don’t look well?”

…I guess I should say thank you for taking care of my facial expressions in the meantime.

I was taken aback by the arrow that suddenly flew at me, and for a moment I could barely hide my shocked expression.

The seemingly endless horde of monsters, which seemed to make a big difference between having one corps and not having one, was quickly cleared up when Silua’s 7th corps joined.

Of course, thank you.

‘Thank you, so please leave now.’

The entire time she was clearing out the monsters, Silua was anxious because she couldn’t give me a weapon. I told him to catch this monster and kill it whenever he got the chance…

If Ben, who was worried about my health, hadn’t stepped forward and said that Demon-sama should rest now, I would have stood there motionless in front of that hideous monster.

After watching the few remaining monsters being cleared away, I hurriedly walked to the carriage and opened the door.

Silua, who had been looking at me the whole time while working, tilted her head.

“Are you coming in? Are you not going to deal with those monsters? I left it on purpose to give it to you, Demon…”

Was it on purpose?

After a moment of pause, I pretended not to hear anything and got into the carriage. Develania approached Silua with a bright smile.

“We’ve sorted things out to a certain extent, but why don’t the 7th Corps commander just leave?”

“Are you going to use it like this and then immediately throw it away? “I haven’t seen it that way, but Develania is also colder than I thought.”

“What are you saying?” We’re going to the second city. “Do you know who is guarding the second city right now, Commander of the 7th Corps?”

Silua’s face frowned as if she was remembering someone.

“…Commander of the 10th Corps.”

Outright contempt and disgust.

Silua spat, as if he was displeased with the fact that he was a corps commander like me, and gestured towards his corps members.

“I’m sure it would be better to get out of here than to meet a guy who doesn’t even look like the commander of the corps. See you later.”

“okay.”

“…I think the work is over, so please take this thread away.”

“Oh, I’m sorry. “It came in easily like a loach, so I thought it would take care of itself when it left.”

“It’s not difficult to get in and out, but I wonder if I have to go out inconveniently.”

Quickly. The sound of teeth grinding was heard.

Develania, smiling with a strong jaw as if gritted teeth, holds out his hand. As if they had been waiting, the threads that had been tangled together were unraveled and returned to their respective owners’ hands.

It was a neat finish that put to naught any worries that it might get tangled in the middle.

“Thank you. “Okay then.”

“….”

I thought he would stick around a bit more, but he turned away really calmly.

If you’re the 10th Corps commander, you’re probably referring to Geisitel, so why that reaction?

My doubts were resolved when I entered the second city where he was said to be residing.

‘Wow… crazy.’

Perhaps most of the monsters had flocked at that time, but since then no monsters on that scale have appeared.

Thanks to this, I was able to solve the problem with just Ben, who was going crazy with Develania and the members of the 2nd Corps, and I also arrived at the second city at the right time, so I was relieved─ ‘…I can’t believe they’re attacking me like this.

‘

Did you take advantage of the moment I let my guard down? It was a great psychological warfare, Commander of the 10th Corps.

When I arrived at the second city and got off the carriage, wearing the robe Ben had given me on behalf of my lieutenant Ed, who had not followed me, what I encountered was none other than fluttering

.

─It was colorful luminous paper powder falling against the night sky.

“Do do do star…”

As I was looking at the sky blankly, Develania clicked her tongue as if it was pitiful next to me.

I was about to look back at her, but the sound of the drums continued and I fixed my gaze straight ahead again.

Demons line up to form a path, and in the middle of them, a demon with large bat wings walks with a palanquin behind him.

He came right in front of me, who still hadn’t adjusted to this situation, and bowed politely.

“long time no see. Demon.”

“Ah yes.”

“I heard you were coming here so I quickly got ready. How do you feel? It may be quite inadequate since it was a hasty investigation into the civilization of the human world, but…”

For some reason. For a moment, I wondered if there was something like this in the demon world.

It seems like I worked hard, but if I were to give my honest opinion…

‘I’m embarrassed.’

All the demons around are just looking here. My face is so hot that I can’t raise my head. At least it was like this because he was wearing a robe. If he had no face, he wouldn’t have been shamed.

It was clumsy and even excessive…

Then the personality of the 10th demon corps commander in front of me came to mind.

‘He… he was a bit servile, wasn’t he?’

As Silua said, he is a corps commander who is not befitting a corps commander, as he is always observant.

It was Devellania who spoke on behalf of me, who was silent as I didn’t know how to react.

“What is that thing behind you…?”

“Oh, this is a kiln. It is said that people of high status in the human world ride on it. “Daemon is human, so I thought he would miss you, so I prepared this.”

no. I’ve never ridden that thing. Before that, why are you so sure that I am of high status?

The kiln is used in the ‘South’. I even heard that it is almost completely closed these days, and only royals ride it briefly during certain events.

‘Usually, when you’re a corps commander, you often secretly go out to the human world, right…? If so, you would be able to tell the difference between the North and the South.’

At least Develania seemed to know for sure, turning her head to the side and shaking her shoulders. If you know, please tell me.

I quietly touched my forehead.

‘…How do I fix this?’

“Daemon!”

“…?”

At that time, Ben, who was standing still, pushed the demons away and rushed out.

Develania, who had suddenly been pushed along with me, looked at me in confusion, but he didn’t pay any attention and fidgeted in front of me, looking at my magic stone necklace over and over again.

“Daemon! Do you have a headache?! Please be patient, I’ll treat you quickly… Damn, there’s no reaction, right? That means…!”

I don’t know what you’re thinking, but it’s probably not that.

I slowly lowered the hand that was on my forehead.

I was just about to explain that I was fine, thinking that the situation would escalate further.

“Huh! Do you have a headache? “There’s a palanquin here, so hurry up and get on it!”

Geisitel, commander of the 10th Corps, did not miss the opportunity and suddenly colonelized Gama. Faced with the extravagant palanquin, I could not bear to face reality and quietly looked away.

‘…I think my head will hurt more if I ride that.’

As a result, I was able to attract the attention of all demons in this city.

Yes, I rode it.

‘I’m so glad I wore the robe.’

…I’m so glad.

***

The man wearing a black robe and sitting on an ornate palanquin was more alien than anything else.

It’s not that they don’t fit together. The palanquin, which may have seemed comical, actually made the man stand out by carrying him.

Naturally relaxing, leaning back against the backrest. The posture of putting one’s arm on the armrest and resting one’s forehead as if something was bothering him.

The appearance, which added to the imagination by not being able to see the face with the robe hood pressed down, caught the attention of the city demons who flocked to see the news of the 0 Corps commander’s visit in a different way.

‘I can’t feel any magic, so I’m sure it’s a human…’

‘A human with that kind of vibe?’

‘So you’re the commander of the 0 Corps?’

Among the demons, the number 0 had great meaning.

A person who created a position that didn’t exist and recruited him without even adding a number to the end. Although the proud corps commanders who brought me in by placing me above 1st Corps Commander Jaycar

are attaching meaning to the numbers I have, in reality, the numbers they have do not have much meaning. There is an atmosphere of respect up to 3, but the only number that actually has meaning is the 1st Corps Commander, who is qualified to serve as the devil’s representative.

Therefore, the higher number ‘0’ attracted the attention of all demons in the demon world.

What was the devil thinking when he gave him that position?

Why did the other corps commanders accept him?

What is his role? And what are his abilities?

──What on earth is he worth?

The contributions he made at the time of recruitment were enough to make him a corps commander, but there were some doubts about giving him the position of corps commander.

It is not enough to stop the hero from committing suicide and kill the 7th Corps commander before that. Wouldn’t it have been okay to just give him the position of 13th corps commander?

So we gathered together. I wanted to see the face of the famous Commander 0 Corps and answer my questions.

‘I understand now.’

‘I think I understand without having to find out the reason.’

As a result, although I did not see the face, the mystery was resolved.

I think I understand why other corps commanders accepted him without any complaints.

The atmosphere is unique.

When compared to Geisitel, the commander of the 10th Corps who came to protect the city, the gap was even more evident.

If Geisitel is a scoundrel, Demon Arut is the leader or right-hand man of the underworld. Even compared to 2nd Corps Commander Develania, who had a much heavier presence than Gaisitel, the difference remained.

Even now, isn’t Develania acting as a guard and attendant, and Gaisitel fawning next to her? In a way, they are also the same ‘corps commander’. The commander of Corps 0 doesn’t even react to Geisitel’s flattery.

At the moment when the demons were admiring him as he sat silently on the palanquin and fixed his gaze on the front,

the Commander of Corps 0, who was holding his forehead as if he was tired, had a headache, or was annoyed, opened his mouth.

“….”

“Yes? “Daemon, what did you say?”

As expected, Geisitel, who was waiting next to him, did not miss the opportunity and approached quickly and listened.

The invisible gaze inside the robe seemed to glance at him, and then a small voice came out.

Everyone listened, and Geisitel, who heard him closest, kindly recited the content in his voice.

His voice spread widely in the quiet space.

“…─.”

“turn off?”

“…──.”

“lose. Get out. I said ‘get out’….”

“….”

“….”

A short silence passed by for a moment.
