Chapter 15 (2/2)
Corpses that were unrecognizable.
「Ueeeh.」
I threw up.
「This is awful.」
「Wh- why did this… UWAAHHHHHH!」
Why, why, why!
We were just together in the afternoon!
So why did they end up looking like this?
Who the h.e.l.l did this?!
I hate him, I hate him, I hate him, I’ll kill him, I’LL KILL HIM!
「What? Are there survivors?」
「Ugh! Who is it!」
「Me? I am the Demon Lord! FUHAHAHA.」
「Were you the one who did this!」
「Ahh, this? That’s right, I did it.」
This guy… to everyone!
I’LL KILL HIM, I’LL KILL HIM, I’LL KILL HIM, I’LL KILL HIM, I’LL KILL HIM!
At that point, I heard a cold voice resounding in my mind.
「You have fulfilled the fixed conditions. You are able to temporarily use the skill 「Extraordinary Cooking (異食)」.」
What was that? That voice just now…
Whatever. For now, I’m gonna kill this b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
「DIEE!」
「Hmph, did you think you could hurt someone like me with that?!」
I lunged my sword at the Demon Lord with all my might.
The Demon Lord thought he would not be hurt by such a thing and brought out his arm.
Thud.
「…What? My arm has…!!」
Kio cut off the Demon Lord’s arm.
「b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I won’t forgive you!」
「Dark Ball!」
Dogonnn!!
It landed a direct hit on Kio, but
「It’s not effective, huh, ORAAH!」
From the smoke emerged Kio, unhurt.
Moreover, he has already cut the other arm off.
「GUH! B- b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Who are you!」
「The cook of this Kis.h.i.+dan! Hmph!」
He aimed for the Demon Lord’s neck, and it his head rolled on the ground.
「You do not fulfill the requirements. The skill 「Extraordinary Cooking」has been revoked.」
「Phew-」
「K- Kio. What the heck was that!?」
I just realized that the Oukoku Kis.h.i.+dan leader saw everything.
「I also don’t understand. But it seems to do with my skills…」
「Your skills?」
I told the leader about my current skills and how I heard a voice saying I got a new skill, used it, and now can’t use it anymore.
「That kind of skill…」
「Before that, Oukoku Kis.h.i.+dan Leader, can you please cremate everyone?」
「Ah, of course.」
Oukoku Kis.h.i.+dan’s leader went back to the capital and told the King what had happened.
I thought about how I should tell Leader who was sleeping at the inn, but decided that I would just tell him the truth.
「E- Everyone was…」
「Y- Yes…」
The silence was painful.
It’s because he’s the Order’s leader.
The one who’s in the most pain is Leader.
「Sorry, but can you leave me alone?」
「I understand.」
I left Leader’s room and went to my own.
「Haah-, why did that sort of thing happen?」
「Kio-sama, Kio-sama.」
「W- Who is that?」
「It is me. It’s Nezumi.*」*TL: Nezumi is speaking in a really humble old style.
「W- What, you can talk!?」
「Actually, I was granted life from G.o.d and came to your side.」
「Eh, Eh, what do you mean?」
「Well, G.o.d told me to come protect you, Kio-sama.」
「G.o.d sent you to this world to me?」
「Yes, that is right.」
「And just now, I granted you a skill using my powers.」
「Eh? Are you talking about that 「Extraordinary Cooking」skill?」
「Yes, the skill 「Extraordinary Cooking」allows inedible creatures to be edible.」
「So that’s why! That’s how I was able to defeat the Demon Lord!」
「Yes, that is right.」
「Thank you, Nezumi-kun!」
「It is quite fine. However, because I used my power, I have to return back to my Lord.」
「Eh? Are you leaving? Are we never meeting again?」
「That, I do not know. However, we may have the chance to meet again. Until then, stay well!」
After saying this, Nezumi-kun left out the window.
It’d be good if we met again-
「A lot happened today. I wonder what will happen to the Lint Bloom Order now.」
