I’m Not That Kind of Talent Chapter 136

136. Cracked dam (1)

The ground shook and dust arose.

I don’t think I would be full just by eating this small body, but there weren’t many, but large monsters running towards me with excitement.

The good news is that they run as if they are competing, as if they know that they cannot share ‘me’, so the distance between the person running at the front and the people behind him has widened a little.

‘I’, who was standing still and watching the scene, grinned.

‘That’s enough.’

I don’t know who is running in the lead right now. That you may be hunted by your prey again.

‘I’ have some talent for this type of play. Especially when the opponents are such simple people, leading the play according to the scenario is a piece of cake.

If you make one guy the scapegoat and reveal the twist, the other idiots that were chasing you will be embarrassed and stop. That gap is enough time to create fear for me.

‘They say they’re failures who couldn’t become demons, but they’re simple and stupid… I really like them.’

The dagger in my hand spins. My thumb kept folding and unfolding as if it were going to be used as a handle, and ‘I’ slowly lowered my posture───and

when the leading monster reached right in front of me, I jumped out of my seat and ran out.

In their eyes, it probably seemed like I had disappeared for a moment.

Because I was going at a speed that my body couldn’t bear, I heard a snapping sound from my legs. I ignored it, jumped into the air, swung my arm, and plunged the dagger into the guy’s neck. It took a bit of effort to insert the dagger into the tough leather, but it was okay.

Ignoring the burden on my entire arm, I shifted my weight and lowered it as if I was hanging on.

“Kaaaa!”

“Maybe it’s because he’s big. “Even though I was stabbed in a vital spot, I still have a lot of energy.”

So who looked down on ‘me’?

Before falling, the dagger in his other hand was re-inserted into the wound, fixing it and sticking to it.

Looking at the location and size of the wound, it seems like it will die even if left alone, but ‘my’ purpose is not to ‘kill’ this guy. Those who are following behind must also be taken into account.

“After all, attacking the eyes would have a good visual effect, right?”

Deep.

I committed this against humans as well, so there is no way I would hesitate against monsters. I raised my weak arm, thrust the dagger into the guy’s eye, and twisted it.

“Kaaaa!!”

“it hurts?”

He kindly put his face in front of his remaining eye and smiled innocently.

Eyes the size of fists shake. The screams of ‘anger’ at being attacked by prey began to take on the quality of ‘fear’.

The other monsters who were running in a panic at the unexpected situation that happened in front of them stopped and glanced at them. ‘I’ raised my dagger and started to roughly cut out the remaining eyes.

And then it stops.

“…Oh, there was poison in your fingernails.”

The front paw of the struggling guy scratched his side.

I looked at the wound that was turning purple and saw the guy. Even though he lost his eyesight, he has a triumphant look, as if he has a general idea of the situation he is going through.

…For someone who will die soon to struggle.

After glancing at the monsters that were beginning to approach from behind, he plunged the dagger in his hand deep into his eye and jumped down.

And without any time to waste, ‘I’ took out a clean new dagger, cut off the side, threw it on the floor, and trampled on it.

Clap.

The crushed flesh beneath my feet made an unpleasant sound.

“I thought about throwing it to you guys, but I didn’t want to create any unnecessary variables.”

Wouldn’t it be a big deal if you eat something and end up rolling your eyes at how delicious it is?

Only then does the mangled monster fall down with a thud, as if its tenacious life has run out. The monsters that followed behind had already stopped a long time ago.

‘I’ said with a wide smile at the guys.

“What’s wrong with you? “I can’t wait to come.”

I thought he had managed to inject poison after chopping up one of his compatriots, but he cut off the flesh himself before it could spread to his body… and even smiled brightly, as if he was not even conscious of his side, which was bleeding.

Basically, a crazy person is recognized regardless of his or her race.

The monsters slowly began to retreat.

***

I had a dream again. I seem to be having strange dreams often these days… I

frowned as I stabbed the neck of a small, rabbit-sized monster with a dagger.

‘The contents…’

I don’t remember the contents.

‘So in the dream, I…’

I don’t remember.

I definitely don’t remember the content, but seeing as how I didn’t feel very good after waking up, it couldn’t have been good content.

‘Ah, I’m craving medicine…’

Against the background of a beautiful moonlit night, I was wearing comfortable everyday clothes with my face bare for the first time in a while… I sighed as I slayed the crowd of little monsters.

As if considering my poor physical condition, the emperor ordered me to hunt a minor monster a week later.

Yes, I’m glad it’s not a big, fierce and scary monster, but…

‘There are too many small monsters and they run away easily…!’

I threw my dagger angrily at the fleeing guy. The guy whose torso was pierced precisely fell apart.

It’s not threatening. If we were to compare it to a wild animal in the human world, it is literally a monster the size of a rabbit or rat. However, since they also try to eat the flesh of living things, it is only difficult if their numbers increase.

‘Well… let’s just say it’s dangerous.’

Although their numbers had not yet increased to a threatening level, it was an order from the emperor who judged that it would be better to eliminate such variables in advance as it was a war situation.

Whether it’s the emperor or the devil, they pretend to care about my body, but in the end, they use it here and there. Is that really the case when you become a monarch?

“Anyway, it seems like everything is roughly organized…”

Rustle.

“…I don’t know what to say.”

As soon as you speak, the remnants appear?

I held the dagger tightly in my hand and looked towards the grass where I heard the sound. As if it sensed that it had been caught, the grass shook, and then something jumped out and ran towards me at full speed.

“Demon Nieiim!”

“!?”

I barely stopped the dagger I was swinging reflexively.

A familiar-looking demon with leaves on its head runs towards me, calling out a familiar name in a familiar voice. For a moment, my head felt overloaded.

Was I… on a mission as a ‘Demon’?

“…Ben?”

“Yes, Demon! “I managed to escape from the Demon King’s Castle and come here to seek treatment for this Ben Demon!”

What is that now…!

My feet were twisted because I was embarrassed. I reflexively stretched out my hand to get my balance, but it had no further effect than touching Ben’s shoulder.

‘No, usually he just supports me, holds me, and lifts me up, but now he’s asking me to do something.’

Yes. I fell on top of Ben now.

One hand pressed down on Ben’s shoulder and the other hand holding the dagger rested on the ground next to Ben’s head… while inserting the sword into the ground.

Anyone can see that this is attempted murder or at least a threat to kill…?

Thinking that Ben would misunderstand me, I quickly put away the dagger and tried to make an excuse, but Ben, who rolled his eyes and checked the blade next to his head, spoke first.

“sorry! “I received a signal that Demon-sama was injured, so I was in a hurry… did I get in the way?”

“yes…?”

“As expected. sorry…!”

No, that’s not it… didn’t I raise my eyebrows? Why are you doing that?…

I opened my mouth to explain, but this time, Ben spoke faster.

“still…!”

“…?”

“I’m so glad you’re safe.”

“…under.”

What should I do with my doctor who has this crazy professionalism?

He smiles happily, as if he is truly happy. I couldn’t bear to get angry at that, so I slowly withdrew the dagger.

‘I didn’t mean to get angry in the first place.’

The snake scales that cover part of his face remind me that he is a demon, so how dare I get angry about that. Being used to it and having a swollen liver that makes you angry are two different things.

Still, due to the unexpected worry, the fatigue that had accumulated without knowing it appeared, and the stiff expression on my face relaxed. Ben, who astutely noticed this as he was watching me, did not miss the opportunity to ask a question.

“Are you feeling okay? “When you look at the signals, it doesn’t look like there are many places in good condition.”

“…it’s okay.”

“It’s probably a lie, so I won’t believe it.”

Rien said the same thing and he too… If he was going to do that, why did he ask?

“Based on the movement, it seems like the muscles in the limbs are also a problem… Ah, the sides! Is your side okay?! “The signal was no joke!”

“It’s okay….”

“I don’t believe it!”

Then don’t ask!

“Excuse me, but let me take your clothes off.”

“Don’t be rude, just.”

“Can I take off the bandage?”

“no.”

“Yes, I will solve it.”

This bastard…?

The hand inside the clothes fumbles to find the knot of the bandage. It’s cold! Maybe it’s because they’re demons, but their hands are cold. I got goosebumps.

I felt like even if I refused verbally, they wouldn’t listen, so I quickly shook off his hand, stood up, and took a step down.

“I’m really fine. I finished the treatment and my body is in some condition…”

“Marquis?”

“!”

An unfamiliar voice.

I quickly turned my head to check where the voice came from. A man dressed in imperial uniform was holding a weapon and looking at me and Ben in turns.

Ah…

‘I’m ruined.’

I made a mistake. Just like when carrying out the Demon King’s orders, this mission should have been carried out in secret.

Honestly, there is no need to keep it a secret when carrying out light orders given by the emperor in the imperial camp. The emperor didn’t say it was a secret mission, and the mission itself was really light and nothing special.

So I moved confidently. As a result, they said they could not send the Marquis alone, so three knights from the military camp followed along to guide the way.

‘I barely managed to separate Dan from following him…’

Originally, more knights were going to follow, but the reason the emperor moved me in the first place was to minimize the waste of troops, so I read his intention and compromised with just three. .

‘Your Majesty, I did my best…’

In fact, I wanted to take more, but… this was the best.

Because our numbers were small, we had to divide the area into separate areas to deal with the monsters. Still, why didn’t I go alone? Giggle… Not!

I never thought a problem like this would occur.

‘What should I do with that person?’

Kill me? If you explain the situation, the Emperor will understand. But…

I looked at the imperial knight with troubled eyes and quietly touched my forehead. My head hurts and I feel my stress level skyrocketing.

“Cough.”

Oh nice timing. It’s a bit absurd that my head hurts and blood comes out of my mouth, but now is not the time.

“place…!”

“go.”

First, he threw the dagger next to Ben’s face as he tried to call out ‘Demon’ and blocked his mouth.

It was a small voice, almost like talking to oneself, but since he was a demon, he must have understood it well. Even if you didn’t hear it, he’s not a completely clueless person, so he would have roughly figured out what he meant by his actions just now.

Sure enough, Ben, who slowly got up, quickly turned his back and left. The driver who saw it tried to chase after it, but…

“Cluck, cluck, cluck!” Cooler gasp! Keheek kek!!”

“Marquis Hu!”

I guess I got caught once or twice.

He broke the blood in his mouth into his trachea and coughed out a very bloody bloody cough. Then he gave up on Ben and quickly came to me.

Okay… I’m sick, so let’s leave that guy behind and go back quickly. Ben, don’t come back again.

***

‘The demons… ‘Marquis Hart…’

The knight who was restlessly examining Deon Hart, who was coughing up blood and almost as if he was dying, gritted his teeth and recalled the situation from a moment ago.

The Marquis stands proudly holding a dagger in front of a demon who barely raises his upper body from a lying position.

It wasn’t difficult to understand the situation. The Marquis, who was alone, was busy hunting monsters when the demons attacked him.

‘Still, the Marquis would have won.’

The result would have been the scene I saw.
