Chapter 12, Intentions

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin I am out on the night hunt with the Lord. Now that there is no need to conceal my abilities, the monsters in the woods are no real opponents to me. I had already gotten used to the physical abilities of a ghoul. The machete and the claws, in addition to abilities that far surpass a fleshman and with the Lord’s backup, there was no way these monsters could pose any kind of threat. I slaughter a pack of night wolves, that were…

Chapter 13, The Death Knights

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin It has been quite a while since I have been outside. The last few years of my life before were mostly spent in bed. So it must be around five or six years since I have been into town. The sunlight pouring down from the sky pricked my skin. The hunt happened almost always at night, so it’s been a while since I have been outside during the day. However, that does not mean I am out of commission in daytime. The…

Chapter 13.5, The Death Knights

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin We picked up what had been requested and made our way towards the exit of the town. Huck was very surprised when he saw me with Roux but he didn’t say anything. He has a generally favourable impression since despite his shady business, he has a principle of not prying into his clients’ affairs. The object that the Lord had requested was wrapped in a thick cloth, so I could not tell what it actually was. Except that it…

Chapter 14, A Chance Encounter

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin Beautiful hair made of fine silver strands. Deep purple eyes like the amethyst. She was, not yet twenty… but I suppose in her late teens. Her skin was pale, but not sickly like Roux's. Her refined features gave her an intelligent air. She had the kind of beauty that would have had me bewitched if not for the current circumstances. She was shorter than me and looked very dainty, but the energy I felt radiating from her was more…

Chapter 3, The Difference in Perception

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin The bear yelps out in pain and keels over. I simply keep swinging the machete down at the half-dead bear with all my might. My blade strikes relentlessly and tears through the thick coat of the bear and proceeds to hack at its flesh. The blood spatters everywhere but my hand doesn’t stop. My body is moving on its own. I am witnessing everything that is happening, from a distance, separated from my own body. The blood spatters onto…

Chapter 4, The Investigation

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin I am no stranger to counting down the hours. If I could have wished for anything, it would be a clock. Although I can’t tell the time of the day yet, I am already aware of Lord Horus’ daily routine. To be more precise, rather than his routine,what I had figured out was when he visits this particular room. He always visits the morgue well after dark. There have been no exceptions thus far. If my calculations…

Chapter 5, Evolution

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin I maneuver a long, disproportionate arm that is already accustomed to using the machete, to slay a monster monkey that jumps out of a tree overhead. The sweet smell of blood fills the air and the woods grow quiet. I wonder if the monkeys sitting up high on the treetops, observing the fight realized that the opponent was too out of their league. They let out a strange call and hightailed it deep into the woods. A body that can freely…

Chapter 6, Suspicion

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin I can feel the power surging through my body. I truly wonder how long it has been since I was given new life. The Lord has started to regard me with strong suspicion. “...There is still no change…hmph…even though he should have already gotten a lot stronger…” At the laboratory. After our daily hunting routine was over and done with, the Lord quietly groaned and looked at my face. I presumed the face of a…

Chapter 7, Trust

by Silavin — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin The lights flicker and a tearing scream echoes through the mansion. Roux was sent flying into the air and landed onto the dead bodies on the stone slab. It was the first time I had seen a person be blown off their feet. I suppose that was caused by offensive magic that the Lord seldom uses. The Lord’s expression was the same as ever. His eyebrows were not furrowed nor was his face contorted, but one could surely see the spark of anger…

Chapter 8, The Right Opportunity

by Gills — Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin Considering the fact that I can evolve and excluding the risk that I could have my freedom stripped, these are the best circumstances I could ever ask for right now. However, I could feel that ‘the time’ for my mutiny was drawing close. The seed of suspicion will no doubt keep growing bigger inside his mind. Even though the Lord dismissed Roux’s words as lies, they must surely keep pricking him in deep recesses of his…
