Chapter 26 - Birthday (2/2)
I absentmindedly looked at the dying monsters.
The first of them to die was a quadruped lizard.
The only way for me to be able to kill any of them is to wait for the poison to kill them from within.
[Geeehhh, gggaahhhh!? Gguuuueeeee….]
<Your level has increased.>
I don’t feel any exhilarating feeling at all.
It’s such a terrible scene.
Just like this massacre I’m committing now.
Yes— This deed I’ve done.
This dreadful act of mine.
The kind heart that my uncle once taught me, it’s completely missing.
[Fuguuhhh…]
Tears started flowing from my eyes.
[Sh*t… what the f**k is this…]
At this time where I had finally began to understand what I had done, the gruesome and terrible act I have committed were grasping my anguished heart—
Or so I thought is what would have happened.
[It’s not like that.]
It’s not like that at all.
The tears continue to flow down from my eyes.
I was honestly surprised since I can’t feel anything for these monsters at all.
What I’m surprised about are the remaining tears that still continue to flow.
Was I “poisoned” by something?
Did my resistance to killing “sleep” temporarily?
Or was it my sense of decency as a human that had “paralyzed” my immunity to killing?
I’ve never thought about it.
I’ve never thought of how frightening I had been.
I wipe away my tears.
[Fuuuuuu…]
I exhaled out a small sigh.
The tears in my eyes had already stopped flowing.
[It’s not like I can do anything else.]
This situation will continue as long I keep fighting for my survival.
There’s no other choice but to accept the situation.
Accept it already, the me as of now.
The newest—
Touka Mimori.
All of you were trying to kill me.
I am also trying to kill of all of you.
It’s indeed a simple rule.
If you really direct killing intent towards me— then I will say sorry now for I will not be lenient towards you and thoroughly trample you down.
I gaze towards the deep darkness beyond my sight.
[Yo~]
It appears that I’m not scared of “you” anymore.
This darkness that I’ve always been afraid of, may become my newest friend who I’ll always hold hands with.
[Ggiyyaaahhh! Ggiieeehh!?]
[Gguuueeehhh!?]
[Gguuggyyaahh!? Giyyeehhh!?]
The voices of agony upon their coming death continuously sounded out.
The lizardmen were successively drawing out their last breath.
It’s a requiem of death.
[Gooo, ggeeehhh…]
[Hhiggiieeehhh…]
It seems the dragon zombies also collapsed already.
It’s an incredibly gruesome and detestable scene.
On the way towards the upper area after I finally finish all of this, I’ll make sure to remember them all—
<Your level has increased.>
The me right now had a wide smile formed in my face.
<Lv 549 → Lv 664>
