It appeared as usual, with a bright day and a pleasant atmosphere. They continued on their way with a calm feeling, far from yesterday's tense atmosphere and the sudden appearance of a monster. Now everything was much calmer and friendlier.The client inside the carriage was getting bored of the scenery, which was nothing but tall trees in the forest. "I want to go back soon, where I can eat well and do all the things I left!"In his mind, there was something he always did – engaging in intimate encounters with the servants, who were essentially slaves.His body was now impatient to engage in such activities.Azazel's eyes narrowed sharply. "It seems they still haven't realized the danger approaching!"In the distance, a murderous aura approached rapidly, and the monster appeared before them.Surprisingly, the monster leaped from the hill, and the sound of its landing on the ground startled them all."What was that sound?" The client asked, looking outside, his eyes widening. "A monst
A powerful blow was about to be released, and the energy layer in the monster's hand was clearly visible. Azazel would not survive this blow for much longer."Is this the end of my simple life?" Azazel asked with a tone that seemed to belittle what the monster would do.People were already convinced that Azazel would surely die; enduring such a relentless barrage of blows as earlier would not have allowed him to survive.Kaboom...An explosion suddenly occurred, and smoke spread, obscuring their view."How? Did he survive that situation?" Federic asked, still trying to regain consciousness to see the outcome of what happened.And, everyone was indeed surprised by the sight of the muscular monster suddenly collapsing."I-Impossible, wasn't he supposed to be the one hit by that monster's deadly attack?" Kamo stared in amazement."Huh... it seems right on time!" Azazel was unfazed by this; his earlier fire attack had a parasitic effect that entered the wounds, and then the energy cluster
The atmosphere on that suddenly chilly night grew even colder due to the mysterious fog that appeared, leaving everyone there puzzled by its sudden appearance."What is this? Is it going to rain?" Federic asked, sounding confused as he looked at Azazel. "That man is still calm. Could this not be a sign of trouble?"Azazel had already noticed it; this was just a strategy employed by Kamo and his companions who were present.Federic began to see his surroundings become blurred, and then he lost consciousness; the fog contained a special effect capable of putting someone to sleep."Do I have to fall asleep because of this fog?" Azazel looked at everyone who had succumbed to the fog's influence, but his body, protected by a special energy, remained unaffected."Hmm..."Not long after, the people who had arranged all of this appeared; there were seven of them, all grinning. Kamo was also there to inspect the situation.Kamo's eyes focused on Azazel. "It turns out this guy isn't that great
Federic and Azazel had already arrived at the location. From a distance, they could see that the building had lights on. In front of the door, there was someone keeping watch."Now what?" Federic asked.Azazel's eyes narrowed, and he unleashed an attack using his energy flow.Crash...In a short moment, the attack successfully pierced the guard's neck."H-How did he do that?"Kamo who was enjoying sake, chuckled at the strange sound coming from behind the door."Where are you going?" a man asked."I want to check the situation outside!"Kamo then opened the door, and it was eerily quiet outside, with only a man standing guard in front of the door as usual."Hey, did you hear something?"The figure in front of Kamo shivered upon hearing the question."N-No..." Federic was irritated by having to play this role, but it was essential for the success of their infiltration mission. He especially found Azazel's demanding attitude annoying. "What is he planning?"Azazel was now inside the roo
"Being weak has always been something normal for me. I've never considered myself the strongest, and I'm sick of meeting people with such a high level of selfishness as yourself, who always believe that life gives them the power to oppress the weak! I didn't expect you to act like this. Simply put, I thought this journey would not bring terror or boredom! But I was wrong; you are a fool who dares to commit such a heinous act!"Kamo remained tense as Azazel recounted what had happened, desperately searching for a way out of the situation.However, escaping seemed impossible; it was clear that Azazel was someone who couldn't be avoided."How can I escape? Do I still have a chance to live? No, I'm a contract killer, and my head comes with a hefty price!" Kamo pulled out the dagger from his waist and quickly lunged at Azazel."Really, do you think this can stop me?" Azazel smoothly deflected Kamo's knife and then delivered a fatal blow to him.Kamo's face was bloody as his body was thrown
The next day, they all began to part ways."I don't know what to say, but if it weren't for what you did, we might all be dead by now."Azazel looked at them in front of him. Jina still appeared traumatized, while Huzo and Federic felt ashamed of their mistakes."Yeah, you should remember this is not the end! There will still be far more dangerous journeys that will constantly test your weak souls!""All right, we are truly grateful to you!"They bowed.Then, everyone went their separate ways.Azazel approached the cart, and Koiga's face still irritated him."So, what are you going to do now? Do you still need me to complete this task?"Koiga was nervous and struggled to answer Azazel, last night's events had left a negative impact."Of course..." He attempted to hide her fear. "I've already suffered too much, and you're supposed to protect me!""Are you the kind of person who abandons yourself like the others?""No, you must not do that! Alright, I'll pay according to the risk involv
The snake targeted Azazel, attacking him vertically. Its bite almost hit Azazel's body."The sensation of facing a monster like this will always give me a sense of excitement, but I know that you are a tough monster. Maybe you can give me a sting so I won't get bored facing you!"The hissing snake continued with a head charge, and that attack shattered the ground, sending dust flying."I understand now that you're a formidable opponent, but you must know that I am not someone who will be easily defeated! I won't give up facing you!"Azazel moved swiftly and found himself behind the snake. A sliding kick caused the snake's neck to slump.Azazel wanted to see how the snake would retaliate for what he had done.The snake's head rose high, slowly turning towards Azazel, its eyes radiating anger."Grahh... how dare you do this to me..."Azazel was surprised by the voice used by the snake. "What is this? Is this monster a shape-shifter?"A bright light emanated from the snake's body, slowly
The day ended with the death of many monsters."It seems my abilities are still far from enough! Perhaps if the opponent is even more formidable, I will be able to defeat them more seriously than this!"The coachman felt nervous being in front of the fire together with Azazel while Koiga was now asleep.The sound of snoring was so clear."I wonder why he can still feel at ease at a time like this! There are still some monsters that will launch attacks, and he seems to think that what's happening isn't important! Does he really consider this issue to be so simple to resolve?"Azazel then said, "I see that you are a coachman ordered to accompany that man! Do you feel comfortable being treated like this?"He remained silent for a moment, remembering all the events that had unfolded in his mind. "I didn't really want to do this job, but I had no other choice! I have to do it to pay off my parents' debt!""You seem to be troubled by this, but is your life worth it?"He was taken aback by t
