Chapter 112: The Scene of a Massacre (3)

The demon who was digging into the reincarnation of the hero, Ranglok, had to desperately swallow the sentence that was trying to pop out of his wriggling mouth.

‘You’re not Jorgal.’

The smile of the man with white bandages wrapped around his eyes enters his sight. Ranglok did not bother to imagine what that smile meant.

He was just busy taking care of himself. It was none of his business what happened to Jorgal, who was unlucky even on normal days.

Demons were evil, and so was Ranglok.

“Ahem… Here’s your card. Mr. Jorgal.”

Ranglok returned the card to him with a cough. The man nodded slightly and then put the card in his pocket.

“Well, I’m busy, so…”

It was then that Ranglok turned his back.

“Uh… Excuse me…”

He hears the voice of the man with bandages behind him. Ranglok wanted to ignore him and pretend he didn’t hear him, but his arm was grabbed as soon as he heard his voice.

“…Haha. Why are you doing that?”

“I was wondering if you could show me around this place.”

“I’m busy…”

“…You’ll show me around, right?”

Ranglok tried to get out of there quickly, but the man casually cut off his words.

Ranglok swallowed his saliva.

He could tell because he had been a red horn, a bottom of the food chain, a weakling among the weaklings.

He felt a clear ‘killing intent’ in the voice of the man in front of him.

“…That would be better. Ahaha…”

Ranglok glanced at the security guard. The security guard was sitting at his seat, snorting his nose.

He barely held back a sigh and started to guide him.

Ranglok was quick-witted so his brain rotated fast.

He realized that this demon who came in disguise and claimed to be a newbie was dangerous.

He guessed that something very bad would happen in this place tonight, whatever his purpose was.

But Ranglok would never know in his life that the shadow of the security guard swallowed the security guard as soon as he turned his eyes away from the security guard at the blind man’s gesture.

Ranglok walked ahead of him and tried to figure out what he was up to and just realized that he couldn’t tell what color horn he was.

Judging by the pressure and suffocation he felt from behind, he knew that there was a huge difference between him and the bandaged man.

Of course, it didn’t matter much since there were no demons weaker than red horns.

“…By the way, I didn’t hear your name.”

The man’s question comes softly from behind Ranglok.

“Oh, I’m Ranglok…”

He couldn’t refuse his question. No, he didn’t want to refuse it.

Ranglok decided that he didn’t need to hate him, even if he didn’t know what he was up to.

Soon Ranglok opened the door to the hall and entered.

“This is the hall. Everyone is working here.”

The hall was still a noisy mess with piles of documents flying around everywhere.

No one paid attention to Ranglok and the man with bandages who opened the door and entered.

The man who entered the hall lost his smile on his lips and soon his mouth opened.

“…There doesn’t seem to be any other exit…It’ll be easy.”

The man muttered something strange.

‘Why do you need an exit…?’

At the moment when Ranglok had such a question in his head the man tilted his head and looked at him, and his lips under the white bandages opened slightly.

“Shadow Stitching.”

As soon as his chant is heard, all the demons in the hall stop moving.

The demon who grabbed another demon’s neck and swung his fist, the demon who looked at the documents and stroked his chin, the demon who just got up from his chair and straightened up his body. And Ranglok who was standing next to him.

They all froze as if time had stopped.

It wasn’t that time had stopped. They could move their mouths. Soon, some of them who were not aware of the situation and were stupid among the demons murmured with curiosity and annoyance.

Soon after, the man who stood still and listened to their murmurs raised his hand from bottom to top.

“Manifestation.”

As soon as he said that, all the ‘shadows’ in the hall bubbled up like sticky liquid and boiled up.

Then a strange and unpleasant sound is heard somewhere in the hall.

?Crunch!!!

At that moment, a strange silence flows through the huge hall.

?Crunch… freewe(b)novel.c(o)m

?Crunch…

They couldn’t even turn their heads, but they could hear something being chewed to the bone in their ears, and the pupils of those who saw it with their own eyes were shaking violently.

Ranglok was standing near the entrance, so he could see everything.

‘Fear’ escapes from Ranglok’s mouth.

“What… what is that…”

Something black that sprang up from the floor opened its huge mouth and swallowed the space where the demon was standing.

It was too bizarre to call it something, and he couldn’t even guess what it was.

Ranglok rolled his eyes and looked at the man next to him.

‘…It’s his doing.’

That was the only thing that was clear. Then again, something else sprang up from the floor, from the shadow, and swallowed another demon.

But this time, it failed to swallow properly, and the demon’s body fell apart.

?Aaaahhhhh!!!

The following scream of a demon scream signaled the beginning of the ‘massacre’.

The demons panicked. They exposed their horns and used magic to try to move even a step, regardless of the rules but even the young ‘branch manager’ who was close to a black-red horn could move his body. The shadows that boiled up from under their feet began to tightly bind their bodies.

Crunch!!

Again, ‘it’ swallowed several demons.

The sound of bones being crunched and the painful groans of the demons brought despair to those who were still alive.

Watching this, Ranglok asked quietly.

“Why… are you doing this… to your own kind…”

He didn’t answer his question, but the man with bandages bent his knees and stroked a black ‘dog’ and something similar that he didn’t know where it came from.

When another death was heard from the other side of the hall the man stood up and opened his mouth.

“Did you say your name was Ranglok…How many humans have you eaten?”

“…How many…?”

“You probably never counted. No one counts how many meals they’ve had in their lives.”

“…”

“It’s the same for me. You are ‘nutrients’ that give me strength, and what you see in front of your eyes is ‘eating’.”

The man continued as he approached Ranglok.

“…So how do you feel after falling from a predator to prey?”

Ranglok couldn’t answer his question.

He couldn’t breathe or speak and cold sweat beads on his forehead.

When Ranglok lost his mind and didn’t answer, the man turned his back on him.

“…So please scream. That’s the only thing I want from you.”

After his last words, the shadow under Ranglok’s feet boiled up violently.

Ranglok sensed it and screamed.

There was a quiet silence in the hall as the demons that smelled bad disappeared without leaving a trace.

‘I thought I had to burn it…’

Thanks to Sheddie, who ate everything without caring about demons or desks, he didn’t have to bother cleaning up more.

Sheddie was visible in the empty hall.

[Is that really the Sheddie I know…?]

Sierra widened her eyes and muttered.

…It was understandable.

Grrr…

Sheddie, who had fluffy fur and was cute, was gone and a strange-looking ‘black thing’ was grooming itself.

That was Sheddie in manifestation state. I don’t know which one to call Sheddie. Both?

I wanted to test something anyway…And to do that, I didn’t need to go in with a weapon and be suspicious, so I hid Sierra outside for a while.

And now that I had finished cleaning up and brought Sierra with me.

Anyway, this battle was…I don’t know if I can call it a battle, but I planned to deal with them using only Sheddie power without using Sierra.

The performance of the binding skill was excellent, and Sheddie manifestation was powerful as expected.

Even if they were weak demons who were not named, they were still demons. And there were a lot of them but Sheddie power unleashed a one-sided massacre against them.

It’s a pity that it’s not a power that can grow more from here.

The only drawback was…

“Ugh…”

I wiped off the blood that welled up and flowed out of my mouth.

It consumed a lot of stamina.

I don’t think I’ll use it often unless it’s a special situation like this time.

I killed the demons as painfully as possible to honor those who were killed by them.

I spread out the barrier I got from Ecline on the day of admission in advance, so there was no need for the screams of the demons to leak out.

In the end, I achieved what I wanted. This much would have caused a great blow to their information network, and it would also delay them from reaching the hero a little more.

I gained a lot of experience by dealing with them, even though they were low-level.

I went up 6 levels at once and reached level 45.

As a bonus, I tested if I could fool the demons with Sheddie energy.

‘Why… are you doing this… to your own kind…’

Well, judging by their reaction, they seemed to have fallen for it well.

I’m currently spreading Sheddie energy around the hall on purpose.

I wanted to confuse the demons who would come here. It was also to get a ‘bad reputation’.

Demons store the life force of living beings in their horns and convert it into magick.

Among them, humans are the best quality but there is one living thing that is more efficient than sucking the life force of a human, and better quality than a human, it’s ‘demons’ but cannibalism is strictly taboo for demons.

For me, it was enough to remind them of their nightmarish past: the appearance of a demon that preys on its own kind.

When I saw fit I scooped up Sheddie and slipped back into the shadows but I didn’t forget to disable the sound barrier.

With that, there will be no evidence of my presence around here and no witnesses.

This place is now nothing more than a scene of a predation, a criminal offense to the demons.
