My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero's Chapter 38

The shadow magic completely destroyed the dragon’s insides .

It ravaged the brain, and returned to the sword blade once again .

It extracted power from the dragon, and when its life was completely extinguished, the enormous body suddenly started disintegrating into light fragments .

Normal monsters would, of course, not emit light when it died .

In the dim boss room, the dragon’s light was quite bright .

I drew ‘Yatonokami’ out and jumped down from the dragon .

Amelia, who stood at a distance, saw that and rushed over .

Amelia, when she saw that her attacks were not going through, it seems that Amelia stood outside the range of the long-distance attacks .

「Akira, your injuries?」

「It’s fine . It’s just scratches from the dragon’s scales . 」

「But, the injury on your right leg, it’s getting worse . 」

I glanced at my right thigh,

「Right now, I’m running on adrenaline, so I’m fine . 」

「Adorenarin?」

「…I’ll tell you later . 」

Leaving that aside, I looked at where the dragon was .

The lights were getting dimmer and dimmer, and the dragon’s enormous body faded, it couldn’t be compared to a dragon, but there was a huge black cat monster lying down there .

「…this was the monster that was the dragon?」

「Probably . There’s a metamorphosis extra skill in its status, so isn’t that it?」

「It’s a skill that allows it to transform into something that it’s seen once . If it’s an extra skill, one look, and even the status, most of it can be imitated . However, its strength was its own and if it didn’t didn’t look closely, then it wouldn’t be able to imitate it . 」

「Which means that it’s not such an idiot that it would attack a dragon . Thanks to that, we were saved though . 」

I, approached the monster, which seemed to be named Black Cat .

The name was as it was .

If it were God that gave it the name, give it a better name .

Amelia also followed .

The golden eyes within the black fur weakly opened and looked at us .

It seems that it was still breathing .

『…it’s the first time a human has come down to this level . 』

A sound leaked out from the mouth that was faintly opened .

We didn’t think that the bitter voice that was deeply resounding in our heads came from the dying monster in front of us, Amelia and I were restlessly looking around .

『Over here, you idiots . …haa, for the one who defeated me to be such an idiot, it’s extremely vexing . 』

「Who’s an idiot, idiot cat . 」

「The one who says idiot is the idiot . 」

When we retorted, immediately rejecting the insult, the Black Cat squinted its eyes a little .

It appeared to have laughed .

It’s quite energetic .

『…by that logic, then that man is an idiot . Maa, fine . You have received a message from the demon king-sama . Will you listen to it?』

Black Cat, looked straight into my eyes and said this .

I tilted my head in confusion .

Demon king or something, it was an acquaintance whom I’ve only heard the name of .

Rather, I’m surprised that that person knew about me though .

「…demon king? What business does he have with me . 」

『Don’t know . I don’t understand what that person is thinking either . 』

『Don’t know . I don’t understand what that person is thinking either . 』

「…Akira, are you going to listen?」

Amelia looked up at me with uneasiness .

I patted Amelia’s head .

「It’s fine . If Amelia is here, it’’ll be fine, right?」

「…un . 」

『…cough . 』

Perhaps it was feeling uncomfortable, Black Cat’s bitter voice gave a cough .

Its eyes flashed with hatred .

As expected, it seems that no matter which world it is, when one sees a man and a woman flirting, one would be filled with anger .

『…’I’ll be waiting in the demon king’s castle within the ’Continent of Demons’, Volcano . ’』

「…that’s it?」

『Aah, the message that I received was just that . 』

「It’s quite mysterious, but how did you receive that message?」

Black Cat shook its head .

『We are demonic monsters created by the demon king-sama . All of us are the eyes, ears, hands and feet of the demon king-sama . Even if we didn’t receive it, we know . 』

「…from what I heard, monsters are created by God though . 」

『Then, what you heard was wrong . I remember it like it was yesterday when I was created by the hands of the demon king-sama . 』

「… . 」

I didn’t say anything towards Black Cat who proudly said that .

It didn’t look like Black Cat was lying .

However, I don’t think that Commander Saran was lying either .

However, I don’t think that Commander Saran was lying either .

Then, who was correct .

『Saa, human . Kill me . 』

「Ha? Why . 」

『The metamorphosis skill that I received from the demon king-sama had been seen through, I have no worth . I thought that that dragon turned out pretty well though . 』

Black Cat was regretting something .

I tilted my head in confusion .

「It’s kind of late, but why are you not able to move?」

『It’s obviously because of the gravity that had stopped my movements at the very end . Because I resisted it too forcibly, my bones were jarred and I can’t get up . 』

「…hee . So you knew what gravity is . 」

『Our demon king-sama is extremely knowledgeable . 』

I nodded at Black Cat who once again puffed up his chest with pride .

I see, perhaps the demon king was summoned from our world, or he’s someone who had reincarnated .

There was no science in this world .

I had heard of this from Commander Saran too, and I heard about this matter from my conversations with Amelia as well .

In the first place, I was surprised that Amelia knew about gravity, but whether it be by summoning or reincarnation, they were taught by a person who had come to this world, or, there’s also the possibility that there were records left behind .

It may not be something unknown .

Besides, I saw electric lights and cameras in Retice as well .

It seems that it’s still not popular among the citizens, but there’s no mistake in its utilization .

The way that they used the camera that I found in the castle was ingenious .

There was definitely someone who taught them this .

『If you understand, then kill me . 』

「I refuse . 」

『If you understand, then kill me . 』

「I refuse . 」

『Why!!』

Black Cat bared its fangs .

It was a good thing that Black Cat was not able to move, I bent down and stroked its fur .

That fur was warm and extremely thick, I had only placed my palm on it and it sunk several centimeters into it .

「There’s no way that I would kill a cat with such beautiful fur . 」

「Now that you mention it, Akira, even if the cat was a monster, kept stroking it . 」

『What!?』

That’s right . I love cats .

It was said that black cats brought misfortune, but it’s absurd to mistreat cats!

Your own misfortune was completely because of yourself .

This was the pet theory that I had .

『…what’s going on . If I went back like this, I’ll be the greatest laughingstock . 』

「Then, it’ll be fine if you come with us . The demon king who would be able to monitor me would be ecstatic as well, and I’ll be ecstatic to be able to regularly cuddle this fluffiness . 」

‘Wha?,’ when it looked towards Amelia, Amelia glided her hand along Black Cat’s fur and was spellbound .

Even if she didn’t give a reply, I understood .

『I don’t particularly care, but the same race, in other words, monsters, I won’t kill them, ok?』

「That’s to be expected . For the time being, let me cuddle you thirty times a day . 」

「Me too . 」

『…you guys, are crazy . …maa, fine . I’ll go with you . 』

「Maa, we were the ones who won, so the ones who had the final say is Amelia and I though . 」

Due to a rather impure motive, my traveling companions increased by one animal .
