Rei, wearing a mask disguised himself as a thief to steal the money transported by the guards every night.
Thanks to the cheat skill "Super Hearing" he was able to discover the trajectory they would take.
But a few minutes ago, the Vice-principal of the academy came to say that the barracks of the 9th squad of the Royal Knights was under attack since, Captain Bret Elliott is under suspicion of robbery.
Rei's face was the same as I would have made if I had heard that.
Since, it surely happened because of Rei.
If at some point Rose finds out what Rei does, it will be bad for him.
For that reason, he came to kill everyone involved in the attack. Except for the knights.
Rei came straight for the boss.
We encountered a weird guy, a random background character. Rei took him out easily and then we happened to find a guy who is clearly the boss.
His appearance indicates that he's not like the others.
Apparently
With this we come to the end of the first arc my dear readers. There is still the interlude that will be better than this chapter and the introduction to a certain event.
As the semester was almost over and we were halfway through the year, Rei went for a walk around the capital, to be exact to one of its edges. The place we were at was one where a lot of children came to play. It was a park. Rei wanted to come because there is no better place to relax than one. Besides, this was the only park that wasn't near the capital, Rose would have insisted that he shouldn't wander away, so he pretended to go shopping. "A hot day like this deserves a cold meal like this." He said that as he ate an ice cream. He had a whole case full. The ice creams are the creations of Bluegarden Trading Company, that is, Rei's business partner, a semi bald, fat, short man named Harold. While enjoying his ice cream I said to him. "It's June, soon the principality event will start. Well, we crushed a lot of their allies so they must be in disarray." "You said we should wait for these events or whatever they
We met someone very unexpected. We were hanging out me and Rei in the park. We heard a growl and behind us was a girl starving to death. Her name was Oriana and she belonged to the white cat tribe, one of the many races of beastmen that exist in this world. But as humans enslave them, many of them are turned into slaves or labor. Since Oriana had no decent clothes, hers were basically rags, we took her to a store. The girl in the store looked nice, but when she saw Oriana her expression twisted. Apparently many people hate beastmen for no reason, I think it's because the church treated them as aberrations in the eyes of the god of light. In the game I never gave it a thought. Rei bought her clothes, brown boots that fit her feet, black stockings that hide her legs, blue shorts that match her tail, which we had to cut a hole in. Her blouse is white with stripes similar to a cat's whiskers with a small blue jacket. Oriana
A new morning came, Rei had his bags ready as he was preparing to leave for Norden. Our acquaintances were bidding us farewell. Oliver, Isaac, Alfred and Sig, who gave us some words of encouragement. "Please don't attack your companions by mistake." I can't tell him he is wrong as he is right. Rei would be capable of that and say "They were in my way" as if he didn't care. Eli with her servant girls were together with Rose, who was discouraged for some reason. Rei said to her after hugging her. "Are you worried?" "You always make me worry." "But it's because of other matters, this time it's different." "Even if it is!" She lifted her head to look at Rei, tears overflowing from her beautiful eyes. "It's a war. A battlefield where hundreds of men die! To say you'll be fine just because you're a cheater, it’s so selfish, I really don’t want you to go..." Rose clung to Rei qui
After wreaking havoc and kidnapping Bret, General Bodin Mont laughed out loud as he rode straight back to his camp. "Hahahaha! This is the best victory in the world." "No doubt the great me will be promoted, gajajajaja." "The general will no doubt be promoted." "This plan came out so perfect it's scary." "When we return we must inform General Lurden about─" *Landing* Something fell in front of them. Their horses stopped, a large cloud of dust was rising. The general sweating said. "W-What is that?" Through the dust cloud a shadow emerged, it was taking strong but slow steps. Stepping out of the dust cloud, everyone noticed a young man saying with an angry look. "I will kill you all! I will finish Norden with my own hands!" The soldiers seeing him proclaim that, laughed loudly. "Hahaha what is that fool talking about!" "What pit did he come out of?"
A piece of news came in the evening to the Kingdom. Joachim stood up while sweating like he was in a sauna. "How... did you say?" "... The Norden Kingdom has fallen, they were conquered and their king is dead. That was what I said..." Joachim had been part of this plot to profit, the problem is now that Norden fell under the hands of the Kingdom. His life was at risk if anyone found out about the letters he sent to Walsh. He asked the servant. "Who conquered it?" "You won't believe this, but it was the captain of the 9th Squad of the Royal Knights. Bret Elliott." "... Hey, that guy? Really!" "I can't believe it either, but it's like this." Joachim was terrified. "My lord, what shall we do about the plan now?" He looked at the servant in annoyance. "It is obvious that we will go through with the plan." "We will no longer go and stir up trouble in various parts of the capita
"I don't understand." Zekken was confused by the current situation. "It should have been easy to get in since everyone would be sleeping at this hour, but... what does this mean!" The reason he was confused was because of what his eyes were seeing. "Get the hell out of here!" "We won't let you through!" "We'll protect the academy." The students were throwing rocks like fireballs at Norden's soldiers and the Codes. The academy wall was fortified with a defensive spell. They couldn't break through it even with the conjurers they had. "Reporting!" A messenger approached. "We can't breach any side of the academy, there are no openings and even the ground was fortified to prevent us from digging... there's no way in." "..." Zekken thought upon hearing that. (How would they have found out? And, who must have been the mastermind behind such prevention?) ◇◇◇ -30 mi
We arrived just in time to save Sophia. As the mansion was being burned, we checked if there was no one inside. Some servants stealing belongings and for that reason managed to lose the chance to escape were the only ones inside. Rei used the "Sensing" skill and was able to find a secret passage. We followed him and that's how we ended up here. Joachim gave us a dirty look. "It's you... the brat duke." "Duke Redblade you mean... well, never mind." Rei looked at Sophia, she had a complicated expression. Her husband was going to kill her, but we came to save her. She sure doesn't know whether to be happy or sad, but we'll take that into account later. Sasha told Rei to put her down. "Let me get off please." "Oh yeah, I forgot." Sasha staggered a little as she never thought the day would come where she would fly through the skies. "Marquis Joachim Catley, the day has come whe
The ministers were hard at work, it had been a few days since that fateful day. One of them sighed as he fiddled with his pen. "If you have time to whistle, get to work." "It's a lot of work. I haven't even been able to sleep well for some days." "We've had to work since 'that' happened. And we even hired more staff." "There's no other way, 'that' was a troublesome thing, after all, no one expected 'that' to happen." "I want to take a vacation. I'm tired, I feel there should be a law to support exploited workers like us." "... It's our job, after all, 'that' is responsible that we have to sign all these documents." The younger minister looked out the window after sighing. "I still can't believe how 'that' was possible. It would be the third tragedy to occur in the palace since that court mage burned down the tower and that female knight razed their entire base." Everyone sighed as long as they remembered
Greetings from Siegburn, your favorite author dear readers. It gives me great pleasure to officially inform you that the novel of Cheat Lord has reached the halfway point. That's right, half of the story has been reached! It's similar to Ixion where we also reached the halfway point of the story, only Re:Otome would be missing so that all my works would be halfway. Did you think that Kurono would remain a stone forever? Obviously I'm not a crappy author to do that XD. You guys after reading various things in my works that happened, you would have to have known that Kurono would have a body one day, but no one imagined that I would use a monster as a vessel XD. Could I have done it before? Yes. Why didn't I do it? I didn't want to do it, I wanted it to happen like this. Why a chimera? Because I wanted something crazy non-human for what Kurono will do. As you could see, we put aside R18 to focus on secondary and character development. Rei is growing up little by little, we are
A new morning has arrived already. I managed to get a body, it's not human, but I can make it look like one. I discovered this while fiddling around. First, keeping this form consumes approximate 40% of my powers, since even the smallest detail copied it from my original body from my memories. Second, I am never hungry. I can eat, but feel no interest in consuming food. Third, I do not need to sleep, but I can briefly disconnect my consciousness and appear to have slept for hours, it works like a stopwatch. And finally, I do not possess any limbs. That's right, I'm just like the dolls for little girls. Isn't this sad? I had to recreate everything, but it doesn't work. I want to cry, I have no use for a gun which not only doesn't have a bullet, it can't shoot either. As a man I am a failure, but well, I can't cry over spilled milk. After I got up, a maid knocked on the door. "Kurono-sama, please wake up, it's time for breakfast." Rei's bastard told everyone to call me Kuro
"... Well... do you have anything to say?" I was being lectured by Rei. How did this happen? Well it turns out that after I cast that huge magic power into the sky, a part of the palace was wiped out. I got so scared thinking that I could kill someone. I used the "invisibility" skill to check for injuries. I almost had a heart attack when I saw it... or I had one, but since this body is not human the heart attack could have happened and I didn't feel it. I was thinking of committing seppuku just like the samurai when I heard that all this was caused by a monster. I stayed all day at the palace gathering information. As night fell I heard how the palace would raise taxes to repair the castle. Then when almost everyone went to sleep, I knocked out some guards and used my powers to rebuild the place. After that I hid for three days in the forest, the knights were looking for traces of possible accomplices. I got so scared that I looked like a bear in its cave. After three day
After ending the chaos with what happened to Klyde, the servants, knights and ministers proceeded to search for wounded. The deceased would be given a burial and their families would be rewarded for their brave sacrifice. As Rei searched for injured people, he encountered someone unexpected. "Max!" He found his cousin trying to run away. He turned around and saw Rei. He ran out after seeing him, Rei went after him, after grabbing him, he choked him. "You... do you have any idea the trouble you've gotten yourself into?" "They're treating you as his accomplice! They're going to execute you if they find you." "... Fault." "...?" Rei heard a small murmur, Max lifted his face and looked at his cousin with a hate-filled gaze. "It's all your fault!" 'If you hadn't ruined my future! The duke's title that belonged to me! I wouldn't have gone near that guy!" "It's your fault it ended up like this!" *Punch* Rei slapped Max's cheek. He looked at him with a nasty expression. "I'll
Rei's plan to defeat Klyde's clones was simple. They would have the six copies fall into the water fountain, Sieghart is the one who would be in charge of grouping them, Darius would throw them with his spear and Rei would arrange for the water to wet them all and thus use a necessary skill to defeat them. It was dangerous because they could die. It was ridiculous because nothing was guaranteed to work. But for Rei, this was the only plan he could think of. Thanks to the past events of his fight against Calvin, Rei understood that sometimes his powers won't work to defeat impossible enemies. Sometimes it will be necessary to ask for help and rely on others. Unlike the past, where the first person he trusted was the one who taught him how to use the sword, and then betrayed him with the knowledge that he sold children, including a little Eli, he was filled with pure hatred for liars. Rei did not trust people because they lied, it was as if a part of him was still a child. But n
In the hall of ministers were the king and queen. They were scared, they heard that a monster came out from under the palace and is coming up screaming that it wants their heads. They could run away, but they had no idea if it might have allies waiting in hiding. Thanks to a servant shouting that Sieghart had arrived, they felt safe. But the queen looked at a certain person with a bad expression. "My dear, is Sieghart sure about not coming to defend us?" The king who understood why she said so answered her. "Olga, we need Sieg to take care of defeating the intruders. That's why you sent him to protect us in the meantime." "I understand that, but... him?" Said the queen pointing her nose at Bret who stood in the center of the place. Bret thought as he looked at the door and a booger ran down his nose. (Why does this always happen to me?) (For some reason they get me involved in something I can't handle and now that I thought I would be calm at the border they drag me to this
The battle between Kurono and Regnas was about to begin. Regnas was very angry with Kurono, killed his men, destroyed his plan and now pulverized his favorite sword. He had many motives to kill them. But he was a barbarian. Someone who was born in a hostile territory make children fight against huge monsters. If the child survives, it becomes a warrior. But if doesn't survive, it's just manure. Such were their laws. Regnas grew up as the second strongest, always surpassed by the current king who disappeared. He doesn't know what happened to him, but he was thankful he was gone. Now he has a free way to do his own thing. Regnas joined the cult to gain power, he was blessed with the name Berserk. After remembering his reasons for being here, he marched straight to Kurono. "I'll kill you quickly to make sure to accomplish at least me with the mission!" Kurono thought as he saw him coming. (Come to think of it. How should I deal with this guy?) (I don't know what kind of str
"The first time I died, I was in a dark place." "There was nothing, just darkness." "I cried for help, I begged for rescue." "No one came to help me." "But at that moment... a warm light came right at me." "It was a dark light from which a woman in a black dress and skeleton-like appearance greeted me." "She said 'Your time has not come, but you are not someone normal either. I will not allow you to die until you have achieved your goal. Go on living and experiencing a life of joy to achieve your desire, I wish to see you one day and that you have achieved it'." "That's what she said." Klyde was telling strange things to the official who was taking down everything he said. He couldn't believe it. (This guy... he's completely insane!) He couldn't believe his ears. The official said. "Hey, we have to inform the king that this guy is crazy. I don't know if we can condemn someone in such a deranged state of mind." Despite the official saying that, Klyde didn't stop. "I knew
Dear readers, the day I had told you so much about has arrived. The big surprise, I don't want to say any more. Just that you enjoy it and that we are entering the final stretch of the volume. _____________ The next morning something unexpected happened. Rei took Ange-chan for a walk. After she got up, they went to have a bunch of pancakes for breakfast. After that they went horseback riding. Then they went beetle catching. It wasn't just today, this went on for quite a while. About a week. I kept asking Rei why he was doing this, but he wouldn't answer me. Now the two of them were eating ice cream again. Ange-chan was looking at her ice cream with a lost look. Rei asked her. "Is something wrong?" She was quiet and then asked him something disturbing. "Rei onii-chan. why are you being so nice to me for a while now?" "...Is it necessary for me to answer?" "Yes." Rei was thoughtful before answering. "I'm going to kill your dad tomorrow." "...!" Both Ange-chan and I
