I Became the Companion of the Gods

100 – EP.23 One Day Night -3

“I wonder if Ruthven even exists?”

“This is really sudden….”

“No, he will too. Didn’t that speedy Alice go missing for an hour?”

That doesn’t mean Alice was beaten by someone.

In the first place, it was impossible to catch her leaping in time unless it was a Shinsoo who manipulated her space-time ability.

It’s not impossible considering that a divine being named Akult appeared on Miho’s side, but it was still so quiet that it was a flaw.

“Keee!!”

Except, of course, for the screaming vampires following us.

“If you’re worried, I’ll look into it and come back…” ?”

“Well, not bad. Let’s stop too If you did it for no reason and you don’t come back….”

It’s meant to play tag with those monsters at night like this.

I would like to politely decline that.

Do I have to play hahahaha with those crazy things because I’m sorry?

Even though I was running around town for an hour, I was getting tired.

‘Should I just give up….’

I try to refrain from killing as much as possible, but as time goes on, even that determination begins to waver.

There is a possibility that Ruthven may not come back even if he defeats them, and I have no obligation to save them.

I didn’t know how I was going to die right away, so I thought that saving them all would be a complacent choice.

“Let’s hold on for 10 minutes, 10 more minutes.”

“Yes… !”

Because the nights are long in winter, the time for the vampires to rampage has increased.

It was a reckless story to hold on until dawn.

So, I really set up a final grace period.

If there is no news of Rusven even after the grace period has passed, it’s really unfortunate, but I decided to annihilate the vampires.

“No….”

“I see…” .”

“Wasn’t it normal for people to usually come after a final grace period?”

“This is a scene that usually appears in human creations…..”

“But why is there no news?”

“That’s because this is reality….”

It was truly a world without dreams and hopes.

Hey, I’m also being targeted by many gods like this, but it’s ridiculous to wish for hope.

I had no choice but to reduce the number of vampires a little to catch my breath, and I grabbed one of the vampires by the neck.

As it is, I put power into my arms and bit by bit I break the guy’s neck.

If there was no hope, at least they decided to break their necks to let them go in peace, but….

“Boss, I’m sorry I’m late… !”

“Uh….”

“Ah….”

A rabbit that came back to me exactly as soon as I defeated the vampire.

The timing was exquisite enough to give goosebumps.

I feel like I’ve been holding back my desires until now, but at the end I couldn’t stand it and ordered a late-night snack to be eaten by the trainer.

Of course, Alice wasn’t the kind of person who controlled me like a trainer.

I would think that the reason I changed my mind after declaring that I would not kill any more vampires was because of my own incompetence.

In other words, I couldn’t wait for Alice, whom I trusted so much, and killed the vampire, and it was my fault.

“That… excuse me… Sorry, Alice.”

“It’s not the boss’s fault, it’s my fault for coming late.”

“Ummm….”

In just one moment, the atmosphere became awkward, and subtle air currents began to flow between Alice and me.

In a situation where no matter how much you apologize, Alice will almost certainly attribute it to her own fault, what should I do to comfort you….

Even so, due to the invasion of the Shinsoo, her complex head became even more complicated.

“Kikiiik!!”

However, even in this situation, there were uninvited guests who broke the atmosphere without even noticing, so of course they were vampires.

I really don’t like all of them, but honestly, I’m grateful for breaking this awkward atmosphere.

Did Alice feel the same way as I did?

She twisted the arm of the vampire that was reaching for her, then smashed her head with a paru, killing her.

“Sorry, boss. I killed myself by mistake….”

“Uh uh… ? That, then! It was a mistake, so it can’t be helped!”

“Hot! I’m sorry, lord… ! I accidentally burned and killed myself too… !!”

“It’s okay! Are you okay! It can’t be helped that the fire has moved!”

“Yes, force majeure.”

A heartwarming situation where everyone knows that it was intentional, but cares about each other’s face.

If we had to run away from here again, we could have covered this as everyone’s mistake.

We all thought so.

“””Ah… !!”””

However, the fire caused by Korr consumed other vampires nearby, and the situation became difficult again.

“Sorry, I’m sorry…” !”

“There could be a mistake like that! As you can see, I accidentally killed a vampire while trying to subdue it.”

-Wooddeuk!

“The boss is right. I also killed one more because Paru missed it.”

-Kwajik!

At that time, everyone was trying to defuse the situation one more time by killing one more vampire.

This time, Cor’s fire was accidentally transferred to a gas cylinder nearby, causing a huge explosion.

As a result, dozens of vampires were caught in the explosion and turned to ashes…….

A darkness fell over Cor’s face, and she eventually sulked.

“Hey, Alice? This is an obvious mistake… ?”

“Yes, that was a mistake. A common mistake we make.”

Me and the rabbit aim fists and punches at the vampires for the depressed wolf.

I feel really sorry for the vampires, but please be kind and beg for our mistakes.

***

“I think we went too far….”

“I see…” .”

“Yeah, I need to reflect….”

After coming back to my senses, the situation was truly a field of chaos and destruction.

Vampires everywhere, debris from explosions, and burning wooden structures.

The most troublesome of all was killing the vampires who were chasing us.

‘I need to repent of my mistakes and deeply repent….’

For some reason, I felt proud.

The current situation of paying back was very thrilling, perhaps because I had been suffering all this time.

Where am I in the past who cried out for non-killing, and am I the one who became a slayer?

Is this the feeling of corruption and bliss….

“Still, I can’t help what I’ve already done, right?”

“I guess so… ?”

“Yes.”

“Hey! You scum!!”

The time when I was trying to end the situation with the understanding that ‘it could be so’.

A bat jumped out of a manhole hole hidden under the snow and started screaming at me.

Perhaps he is the divine beast Bricolacas, the master of the vampires and the cause of this situation.

“To exterminate my slaves… !! Even people like you! Are you even human?!”

“No, they said so…. Wouldn’t it be a bit problematic to think that we are the same human when we have such a monstrous appearance?”

“But I was once a human like you!”

“Isn’t it now?”

“Even if he is the companion of divine beasts, the essence is that he is a dick….”

I won’t deny it. In general, human nature tends to be vicious.

I also don’t have a very good personality.

Even now, I’m saying I’m going to live alone, so it’s like killing people who might be able to save me.

However, I didn’t want to hear such a thing from Shin-soo, the culprit of this incident.

“Then let’s ask one question. Even if I kill you, will those people return to normal?”

“No. It has already been completely mixed with my blood and their blood, so it will never come back again.”

“Really? Thank god! It could have been killed… !!”

“I’m so glad…” !”

“It was a reasonable motive for killing. Nice… !”

“Are you guys really crazy?”

Through the commotions that frequently occur these days, I have come to realize that I myself have been considerably damaged.

In the past, I was just endlessly surprised and flustered and shouted that I was going to go crazy, but now I’m just getting used to it.

Because so many extraordinary things happen, I am not surprised by trivial things.

Just for this vampire incident, when vampires appeared, I wasn’t particularly surprised by their presence.

I just admired the vampire’s actions which made my pets angry, including Tia.

So if I want to live among crazy people, I have no choice but to become a crazy person.

“By the way, there are no slaves, so is it okay to show up like that? With what confidence?”

“Hey! Doesn’t care! I thought that human slaves couldn’t defeat Shinsu anyway. That’s why I’ve prepared a lot of trump cards.”

“Are you referring to Akult when it comes to your trump number?”

“Akhult is not a trump card, but a simple helper. This is my true trump card!”

A vampire bat whose eyes glow red.

Then, as the vampires I and Alice killed start moving again, new vampires begin to appear everywhere.

When I checked with the naked eye, the number exceeded a hundred units, so all of them were disgusting.

“I never imagined that even a dead body would move.”

“Human, no matter how much you borrow the power of divine beasts, you won’t be able to kill these countless slaves?”

“Ummm…. But since the vampires Cor burned didn’t regenerate, isn’t it the end if we burn them all?”

“Well, maybe so, but it would be hard to burn all the slaves here… !!”

“Alice, could you bring me all the gas cans in town?”

“Yes.”

As soon as Alice answered, she had gas canisters and all the explosives piled up in front of us in less than five seconds.

I think you can expect a lot of power with this.

“It’s not too fast… ?”

“Because I checked the location of all the items while looking for the bat. I didn’t know he was hiding in the sewer, but….”

Perhaps it was her mind that she couldn’t find Ruth Ben until the very end, so Alice bowed her ears and her head forward.

Even though he tried to cover up killing her vampire as a mistake, the rabbit still cared about his failure.

I lifted the rabbit’s head and gently touched its chin as a consolation.

“It’s okay, Alice. Neither I would have looked for sewers. And this time, you honored my request, didn’t you? You did a good job.”

“Ah, yes… !”

As I gave him words of consolation and compliments at the same time, Alice smiled faintly.

I wondered if it didn’t work that well, but the rabbit ears that had been bowed forward popped up again and now they even fluttered.

There was not much change in Alice’s expression, but instead she was expressing emotion in her ears.

Most animals express emotions with their tails, but rabbits are the type to express emotions with their ears, so it was very fresh and cute.

“Are you planning on using the blast to blow up my slaves like before?”

“Right, that’s right!”

“But then you guys won’t be safe either! If you can, where would you like to try it?”

“Okay, I will! Cor, light the fire.”

“Neeet!”

“Uh uh… ?”

Rusben is taken aback by my prompt reply.

I thought all the information about me was known to all the gods, but it doesn’t seem to be the case.

Tia’s air manipulation ability.

Although it couldn’t blow as strong a wind as Tia’s, we were able to keep the space we were standing in from being caught in an explosion.

In the past, it was a method I would never use because I was insecure, but after receiving Hresbelg’s crazy teachings, I was confident now.

So in conclusion….

“What a f*ck… !!”

-Kwaaang!!

This means that we can comfortably watch a lively scene comparable to a 3D movie right in front of our noses.

Oh, it’s time for popcorn.
