Guys I’m really sorry for the super late chapter. Please don’t ask why it’s so late because I don’t want to remember it. I’ll be making the character sheets next.
Chapter 16
Six days had passed and tomorrow, Shirley and I will leave to find Vayne and Kriz. For the past six days, we only did requests, requests and guess what? Requests. So far, Shirley is level 31 and I’m level 35. Shirley’s money and mine when combined is, last time I checked, it was 797,450 Ruth.
I know, it’s not enough but we’ll manage. I’m in the dining room with the whole gang since we just finished a request; we agreed to eat dinner together. I guess there’s no reason to say no since we’re going to leave tomorrow. By the way, only Aria knows that we’re going to leave tomorrow. I didn’t tell Vincent or Grey because those two have their “MAY THE BEST MAN WIN” thing. If tell those two that we’re leaving, there’s a 99.9% that those two will follow us which is a huge pain in the ass for me. Don’t get wrong, I don’t hate those two. It’s just, I don’t feel comfortable with those two flirting or doing their tricks with me. I’M STILL A GUY EVEN IF I HAVE A GIRL’S BODY! I might go to the yuri route.
“Haaa~! Shirley~” Kathy tapped the table after finishing her beer. This girl is drunk....
“H-hey Kathy!” Shirley shouted and she snatched the last bottle of beer.
“No fair! Hyuk!” Shirley looked at me as if she’s saying “HELP ME!” and I gave her a look as if I’m saying “Not my problem”. I learned something new about Kathy. Her alcohol tolerance is really low....
What level are these three now?
Kathy tryskkry
Level 37
Assassin
Oh, I'm just two levels behind her. Should I invite her to come with us? Nah, she could find Shirley anywhere so, she could just catch up with us tomorrow.
Vincent Strega
Level 48
Dark Paladin
Even if I grind a whole day, I wouldn’t be able to catch with him and I’m kinda jealous... I mean, I played a lot of online games and when I see someone whose level is higher than me, I easily get jealous. I’ll surpass him one day! But not this day though.
Grey Fortid
Level 39
Warrior
Hmmm, not bad I guess? I have no comment with this guy so let’s move on.
“I’ll go back to my room. I’m really tired.” I stood up and for some reason; Vincent and Grey didn’t said anything. Hmmm, I think that’s a good thing but there’s something off.... The two glanced at each other as if they’re saying something to each other. Weird....
“Shirley, take care of Kathy. If you need help, ask those two.” I went back to my room and I took a bath. Ah~ taking a bath after working is really refreshing... After taking a bath, I wore my pajamas. As I was about to close my eyes, I heard something. Someone is knocking on my window? Wait... Who would visit me at this time?
“Go away. I’m trying to get some sleep here. Don’t disturb me!!!” The knocking stopped for a moment but it continued. I’m going to kill this bastard.
I got off the bed and I grabbed my sword. If that’s Vincent or Grey, I’m going to give them a bearing that they will never forget “I said, don’t dis- Artiz?!” What the fuck is he doing here? Is this guy in love with me or something? Please don’t be! I don’t even remember triggering his flag.
“Hey~ I’m bored~” HUH?! He’s bored?
“SO WHAT?! Do I look like entertainment to you?” He nodded. HE FUCKING NODDED! I pulled out my sword.
“Retribution: On” A black figure covered my body and my dress of retribution is equipped. I recently discovered this. When I was playing, I shouted things like “My sword! Pierce the sky!” and a lot more so don’t ask anymore. I just happened to stumble upon these words and suddenly, the dress of retribution which isn’t equipped suddenly moved and covered my body. Before I can react, I saw that I am wearing it.
“*whistles* That’s kinda hot!” he’s isn’t even showing a speck of fear.
“Leave now. I’m in a pretty bad moo-“
“I’ll give you fifty thousand Ruth if you entertain me tonight.”
“DEAL!” I answered quickly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“So how can I entertain you?” Artiz took form of a human. He is a blonde man with spiky hair and blue eyes. Every girl we passed by are stunned by Artiz.
“They look perfect together!” A woman said which I ignored. I’m here for the fifty thousand Ruth!
“We look perfect together huh?” Artiz said while laughing. He’s having fun isn’t he?
“So where are we headed?” I changed the topic.
“Let’s eat first. I’m really hungry now.” What the hell? It’s almost midnight and he didn’t eat yet?
“I’m on diet so I’ll pass but I’ll still come with you.” While talking with Artiz, I felt a killing intent focusing in us or rather at Artiz.
“Did you feel that?” Artiz chuckled and he shook his head.
“No.” This guy is playing with me. He definitely felt that.
After talking for a few moments, we reached the restaurant and when I saw the menu, I almost fainted. A single meal is twenty thousand ruth! I mean, what the hell? It’s just a normal meal. In the guild, the food costs only 100 Ruth but in here, it’s 20,00 ruth and up! The lowest price meal here is the extra rice.... It only costs 500 Ruth.....
“WHAT’S WITH THIS RESTAURANT?! EVERYTHING IS SO EXPENSIVE!” I roared.
“Hahahaha! This is expensive?” This guy must be seriously rich.
After 20 minutes......
“I’m stuffed! This is the best!” Artiz caressed his belly. Holy cow! This guy is definitely a monster! He ate thirty plates full of food! THIRTY! Three plates are my maximum and this guy ate ten times. Just how big is his stomach?
“Do all demons like you eat a lot?” Artiz called the waiter and ordered desserts. STOP!
“I think so. We eat about 60-70 plates of food a day.” Goku, is that you?
I have learned something new. Demons are monsters when it comes to eating. After eating the desserts, Artiz stood up “Let’s go” Huh? Where are we going this time?
“Let’s have a sparring.” Eh? Sparring? If I do that, I can die with only one strike from this guy.
“NO. DEFINITELY NO.” I still have many things I want to do in this world and dying is not one of them.
“Oh, then I’ll lower the fifty thousand ruth to fifteen thousand ruth....” No. Don’t do that!
“Ok! Ok! I’ll spar with you but DON’T KILL ME OKAY?” Artiz nodded and I heard him mumble “I’ll try not to~” I’m really scared now.
We went outside of the city and we arrived in a grassland.
“Let’s start. I won’t hold back okay?” WAIT! NO HOLDING BACK? THAT’S BULLSHIT!!!
“N-n-no! If you don’t hold back, I will die. I will definitely die!!!” Artiz acted like he didn’t hear anything. This bastard!
“[Dragon instinct]” He casted a spell. Is it a buff spell? While I’m thinking what kind of spell Artiz used, he suddenly disappeared.
“Wher- goeh!” I got kicked in the waist and fuck! It hurts! Because of the leg strength of Artiz, I got flung really far and crashed into a tree.
You received 2,467 damage!
“*cough* *cough* He held back didn’t *cough* he?” I can’t move! Fuck! My whole body hurts! I saw something quickly approaching. WHAT?! GIVE ME A BREAK! Artiz is running at top speed towards me with his right hand forming a fist.
“Wait! Time! Ti-“
“Woooshhh*
“Boogsh!*
Artiz punched the tree behind and his punch produced a shockwave. The tree that was punched, fell down. His fist is right beside my face. I can feel a fluid coming out of me. I pissed myself.... Huhu.... My legs are trembling and I only looked at Artiz.
“Is that all? Let’s renegotiate I’ll raise it to one hundred fifty thousand if you can entertain me in this fight.” I’m still trembling. One hundred fifty thousand ruth? Should I use Limit Break? There’s no choice.
“I’ll take you up on that offer. [Limit Break: Valkyrie Soul]” I transformed and I quickly took distance from Artiz.
“[Piercing Strike]” I threw my spear at Artiz and he charged towards it. He used both of his hands to stop it. At first, the spear was pushing him back but after a few moments, the spear stopped. He stopped it again.
“Heh! You have gotten stronger.” Artiz threw it back at me and I dodged it.
“You’re no fun! You should have stopped it!” Artiz said in an annoying tone. He’s so arrogant! I flew to my spear and I dashed towards him.
“[Spear Dance]” Five spears appeared and I attacked Artiz. This should limit his movements. My spears are surrounding him while I’m attacking him.
“Stay still!” I can’t land a hit!
“Let me borrow this.” He grabbed one of my spears and used it as his weapon.
“I didn’t agree!” Artiz exchanged blows with me.
3,899 damage dealt!
You have received 2,097 damage!
4,656 damage dealt!
You have received 3,987 damage!
Critical Hit!
7,999 damage dealt!
I jumped back. This is bad. I’m low on health now and Artiz is still all brand new. Just as I thought, I can’t beat this guy even if I’m in Limit Break. He’s too strong!
Artiz clapped his hands “Ok! This is enough! Here! It’s the money!” I quickly ran to Artiz and he handed me the money.
“Go back now. Thanks for your time~ and one more thing, you’re too weak. Get stronger so I could enjoy more~!” Shut up! I can’t even see your level! I just started!
“I’ll be going now.” Artiz disappeared before my eyes. JUST WAIT! I’LL FUCKING BEAT YOU SOMEDAY! I WILL! I forgot.... I’m in limit break. I NEED TO HURRY BACK!!! I don’t want to be paralyzed in the forest! Someone or something might find me and- I’ll just go back quickly. I flew until I arrived at the guild.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rise and shine! – is what they say but not for me!!!
“Haruka! It’s already afternoon! Wake up! Wake up!” Shirley is pulling me out of the bed but she doesn’t have the strength to do it because she’s so small and I’m so big.
“GIVE ME A BREAK! I ONLY SLEPT FOR SIX HOURS! Go and have sex with Kathy or whatever but don’t disturb me!!!” Shirley stopped pulling me. Thanks! Now I can sleep in peac- It’s hot.... Why is it hot?
I looked at Shirley and there is a huge fireball on her right hand. Oh no..... Shirley is staring at me with blank eyes. She’s pissed off!
“[Fireball]”
“[Barrier]”
I quickly rolled out of the bed. The fireball landed on the bed and after a few seconds, my precious bed turned to ashes.
“ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY?!” I yelled at Shirley.
“Do you know the feeling of being dominated?” Huh? Dominated? Oh... I see...
“I don’t. You deserved it, you know? Stop playing with girls. Maybe that’s divine retribution.” I calmly answered. I’m just saying the truth. He played with a lot of girls like they’re some dolls.
“*sigh* I’ll let you off this time since I get your point.”
After our fight, we went straight downstairs. By the way, I don’t see Kathy anywhere... Normally, she would be always beside Shirley.
“Hey. Where’s Kathy?”
“She said that she had to do something. She didn’t tell me what it is or where she’s going.” Suspicious...
“We’re not going to do request today. It’s free time so you could do anything except wasting money.” Maybe I’ll grind a little later since I’m not satisfied with my level and strength yet.
“Ok. I’ll search for some skill books.” Shirley replied. That’s good, doing something good with your free time.
After eating, we went separate ways. Weird.... I didn’t see Vincent or Grey at all. Where could those two be? I hope they’re doing something worth with their free time instead of thinking about how to make me fall for them.
I went outside of the city “Let’s start” After walking for a while; I reached the middle of the forest. Let’s see, I need to kill at least 15 level 10 up monsters.
“Gargarrr!!” Huh? I just heard someone screaming. Gargar? What kind of language is that?
I went to the place where I heard the sound and I saw an army of-
Orc Level 16
There are about 20 of them. Orcs are known for their strong sex drive aren’t they? I’m kinda scared to fight them.... Maybe I’ll listen to their conversation a little more. They’re really huge and their skin is green. They’re holding a huge club. I’m not afraid of their weapons. I’m afraid that if they catch me, I- DON’T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT! I’LL JUST RUN FOR IT!
“Human girls yummy!” All of the hair in my body stood up after I heard that.
“Yummy!”
“Human males kill!” They hate males? I guess that’s normal.
“Smell Human girl! Smell!” Huh? Smell? The orcs looked at my direction. HOLY SHIT! WHAT ARE THEY?!!! DOGS?!! I stood up and started running. I heard a lot of footsteps and I looked back.
“HYAAAAAAAAAAA!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!” They’re already catching up to me!
“Human girl mine!”
“Mine!”
“Breed!” BREED? PLEASE DON’T!
I have no choice! Maybe I’ll use [Limit Break]! Wait, I can’t use it! It’s still on cooldown! Fuck! I’ll kill them!
“BRING IT ON!” I drew out my sword and I slashed the first orc who came at me at the neck. It’s head got separated from the body.
Critical hit!
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.
1,567 damage dealt!
“Holy shit! That’s awesome!” I continued slashing the necks of the orcs that keeps coming at me.
Critical hit!
1,460 damage dealt!
Crtical hit!
2,109 damage dealt!
Their heads keep flying every time I attack them.
“WHOOOO! I’M ON FIRE!!! TAKE THIS YOU HORNY BASTARDS!” There are eight remaining orcs and when I was about to attack the nearest one to me, I felt a painful sensation on my back.
You have received 468 damage!
“Ah! Fuck that hur-“
*clang*
My sword dropped to the ground because I was shocked by what I saw.
Orc Commander level 35
It’s three time the size of a normal orc and It’s holding a huge club and moreover, it’s the same level as me!
“Girl yummy mine!” I quickly grabbed my sword and I casted [Barrier] and [Divine Aura].
“I’ll admit that I’m yummy but I’m not yours!!!” I swinged my sword at the orc with all of my might.
789 damage dealt!
I was about to attack it again when I caught a glance at behind me. The low levelled orcs are charging towards me.
“Tsk!” I jumped back. I can’t afford to get hit anymore since their boss appeared. If it weren’t for the <
The orcs formed a formation. 4 orcs on the front, two on the right side of the commander and also two on the left side. I’ll break the front line and that will put the minions into panic.
I dashed towards the four and I took them down one by one. I don’t why but their attacks didn’t even hit me. It’s like my body has a mind of its own. Nevermind that, the other four minions started to break formation and they all charged at me.
“Breed!”
“Mine!
I readied myself and when the first orc arrived in front of me, it swinged its club from right to left so I ducked and I aimed for its feet.
589 damage dealt!
“Hurts! Feet Hurts!” The orc started crying while the other three attacked me at the same time.
“Tsk!” I rolled down under the orc’s feet in front of me and I cut sliced off its head.
Critical hit!
898 damage dealt!
The other two didn’t mind their ally being killed instead, they came at me again.
“MINE!!”
“fuck you!” I screamed as I threw my sword on its head.
Critical hit!
1,201 damage dealt!
Holy shit! Over kill! The orc fell down with my sword piercing its head! But I think I’m going to vomit... This is definitely disgusting.
Only three are remaining. The commander, the orc that can’t walk and the other healthy orc.
“I’m not going to be your breeding machine!” I ran to the orc that has my sword on its head and I pulled it out.
Where’s the Orc commander? The other two orc didn’t say anything and they remained on their position. The other orc ran away and I sense someone behind me.
“MINE! BREED! GIRL!”
Shit! I don’t have time to dodge it! I used my sword to block the commander’s attack.
“Boogsh*
A shockwave appeared after the club hit my sword. My feet got buried in the ground. He’s not this strong when he attacked me earlier. Is it some kind of skill?
I jumped back and the orc charged at me. Fuck! I can’t get any footing if he’s this aggressive!
His speed increased too. This is bad.
“STOP! BREED GIRL!”
“I SAID I’M NOT A BREEDING MACHINE! AND SHUT UP! YOUR VOICE IS ANNOYING! HORNY BASTARD!”
If I take him head on, I’m sure that I’m definitely going to die. My [Limit Break] is still on cooldown. If I lure this one to the city, Innocent people will get killed before I could call reinforcements.
“BREED!”
“SHUT UP!”
All I could do is dodge. I can’t go on the offense because if I’m hit by the attack of that orc, I’m gonna be in trouble.
“BREED!!!”
“I SAID, SHUUUUUT UP!!!” I really want to kill this bastard right now but I don’t know how much the increase in his strength is. Can I take him head on? No, I can’t take chances. I know! I’ll go for the eyes!
“Come at me!” The orc raised his club and smashed it down while I jumped and stabbed his right eye.
Critical hit!
2,343 damage dealt!
“HURTS! EYES HURTS! AHHH! HURTS!”
The orc commander covered his injured eyes. CHANCE!
I ran towards the orc commander and was about to slice his head off when his hand shoved me.
“Urgh....! Wha-”
You have received 1,290 damage!
With one attack, I was sent flying. It fucking hurts! My ribs are broken I guess.
“*Cough* One more *cough* hit and I’m dead *cough*” I can still move. Should I run?
HP: 1109/2867
This is a lot of exp. If I can defeat it but what good would do that to me if I’m dead. I guess I have to run huh? I stood up and started to walk away when something fell in front of me. It’s a little bottle with red liquid in it. What is this? I placed it in my pocket and started running away again.
“This should be far enough. That orc will not be able to chase me here.” Just a little more and I’ll be back. I’ll ask Shirley to heal me. Now that I see it clearly, the forest here is really beautiful.
“BREEEEEEEED!!!” What?!
I heard heavy footsteps closing in near me. Trees were falling down one by one.
“You’re persistent! [Divine Aura]!” I’ll finish this! I dashed at the running orc commander and I initiated the battle.
782 damage dealt!
987 damage dealt!
You have received 678 damage!
1,009 damage dealt!
The orc was about to attack me again so I jumped back. I can’t afford to get hit anymore. I can’t run anymore... My body’s already in its limit. Shit! Shit! Am I going to die here? My original plan was to kill low level monsters and it turned out like this! My luck is high so, why am I so unlucky?!
I remembered the little bottle earlier that has some red liquid in it. Should I drink it? No, I’LL DEFINITELY DRINK IT! I grabbed out the little bottle and opened it. I drank all of what’s inside it. At first, I felt nothing but I saw my HP.
HP: 5,999/5,999
My vision became red... Huh? I could feel my strength increasing. My long blonde hair became white and I felt a painful sensation again on my back. I looked back and I saw wings?!
“Monster girl!” Seeing me, the orc commander stepped back.
“*Smiles*”
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Artiz’s POV
“It worked. She has potential. I thought it was impossible because she’s a hero. From my analysis, she’s a high class demon rivaling Kyoura-sama and she has the same eyes that Kyoura-sama possesses.” As expected of Velcoz. He’s so smart and he knows the strength of anyone from one look. Haruka is now a demon but that’s temporary. She looks hot too when she’s a demon. White hair, red eyes and black and white wings. By the way, we’re currently watching up in a tree.
“Can I fight her after she kills that pitiful creature?” Velcoz looked at me.
“No. This is an experiment. We just came here to give her the demonic vial and I’m sure that if you fight her in that state, you will surely be killed by her. Now look at her.” Me? Killed by her? You have to be joki-
The orc was split into pieces. What the hell happened? I didn’t see what just happened.
“NYAHAHAHAHA!” She laughed and laughed after killing the orc. Blood is dripping from her..... Claws? She has silver claws. She used that to kill the orc? Impressive.
“I need to report this to Kyoura-sama. Watch her for now. I’ll be ba-“
“watch out!” I pushed Velcoz down the tree. The tree we were using moments ago was sliced up into pieces.
“What do we do?! I want to fight her!” I really want to fight her! I WANT TO FIGHT HER!
“No! The demonification will wear out so we’ll keep her entertained for a while.” HELL YEAH!
“[Demon gate 1: Murderer]” THIS IS IT! I CAN’T WAIT!
“[Over Limit: Demonic Sword]” He’s using that? Velcoz’s body got covered in black mist and after waiting for a few seconds it cleared up. A black sword appeared on his left hand and his body got covered by light black armor. As always, he looks so cool! I want to fight him too!
“Demon?” Haruka asks while looking at us like an innocent child.
“Don’t let your guard down!” No need to say that!
Haruka disappeared suddenly. She’s amazingly fast! Now, where is she?
*Clang!*
Velcoz blocked her claws “What a bothersome girl” Haruka smiled “NYAHAHAHA!” Let me join in the fun!
“NO FAIR!” Velcoz looked at me coldly.
“Just help me here and don’t you dare injure her or kill her.” He said while fixing his glasses.
“Ok~!” I ran towards them and I threw my sword at Haruka. She immediately noticed it and was about to escape when Velcoz grabbed her head with his right hand and smashed it the ground.
“You said not to injure her.”
“That will keep her sleeping for a while. Now watch her. I’ll report our findings to Kyoura-sama.” Velcoz is casting a spell when I asked him something.
“She’s going to be stronger than Kyoura right?”
“....... Yeah.” I’m right. After casting his spell, he disappeared.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haruka’s POV
“Nnnm...” I stretched my body and its cold “Where am I?” I opened my eyes and I found myself in the forest. Huh? I slept here?! I quickly looked at my body and it was fine. I don’t remember anything.... After drinking the red liquid, everything is blank. Forget it. At least I’m alive! I moved my whole body and the pain is gone now. I’ll still ask Shirley to heal me.
It’s already dark huh?
“I should head back now.”
Back at the guild.
I went straight to my room and when I opened the door, I found something really amusing.
“Mmm~ Ahn~”
Kathy and Shirley are making out! And they’re doing it in my room!!! HEY! I opened the door.
“Hey you two. Stop that now.”
“!”
The two turned around and they quickly stopped what they’re doing. After closing the door, I ask Shirley to heal me.
“I’ll be leaving now.” Kathy went out.
“You sure took your sweet time hunting huh?” Shirley asked while healing me.
“Well, I encountered a monster which is the same level as me. It even had subordinates so I had a rough time killing it. Wait, did I kill the orc commander?”
“I don’t have any spell for curing amnesia.”
“Shut up.”
Shirley slightly laughed.
“You know the plan right?”
Shirley nodded.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Hurry up!” I whispered to Shirley. I asked Aria to get a wagon and two horses.
“Yeah.” Shirley and I are carrying the food supplies and the other things needed. After all, this is going to be a long trip.
After placing all the things we need on the wagon, Shirley and I went to get the horses.
“Whoa! Easy there boy!” It is a black horse and Shirley’s is a brown one.
After finishing we went to Aria.
“Hey Aria. Thanks for all the help.” Aria shook her head.
“No problem. Please visit us again ok?” I nodded.
Shirley grabbed Aria’s hand and she kissed it. This womanizer!
“Uhm, thank you?” Aria awkwardly laugh.
“We’ll be going now. Thanks again Aria.” We went to the wagon and we sit in the front.
This is it! Wait for us Kriz and Vayne! We’re coming for you two!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Hey! Don’t move so much!”
“You too! Don’t move too much!”
“Kyaa! Watch where you’re touching!”
These three voices are familiar...
“Shirley let’s stop for a moment.” The wagon stopped and I got off.
I looked at the goods and there is something I don’t remember bringing there. Something is covered by a large blanket... I pulled it and I saw the three.
“Hi there...” Grey greeted me.
“.........” Vincent remained quiet.
“Ehehe...” Kathy scratched her head.
“................ SHIRLEY!!!!!!!!!!!” I screamed her name at the top of my lungs.
“I’m sorry!!!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Yahn~ Kyoura-sama~”
A girl said who was hugging a blonde man. The door suddenly opened and a man entered.
“hou, Velcoz! Are there any news?” Blonde man asked.
“She has potential Kyoura-sama.” Velcoz politely replied.
“Tell me about her potential.”
“In terms of power, she rivals Kyoura-sama and in the future, she’s going to be stronger than Kyoura-sama.” The blonde man suddenly fell into deep thinking.
“Heh! So you’re saying that she’s the queen that I’ve been searching for?” The blonde smiled mischievously.
“Yes, a Demon Queen candidate.” Velcoz replied.
