Chapter 11: Be With Me II.
Why do you do this again?
After digging out five pits with his bare hands, he placed five warriors in them, compared to the last time he picked them up...... This time, the warriors' bodies were relatively intact, so that the convergence work was quickly completed. But unlike the last time when he was buried in the soil quickly, this time Gray refused to go into the soil for a long time, as if once he did this, the whole thing would be completely irreparable.
The last time I was in a trance that seemed like a dream, and finally another awakened person stepped in, and I was able to comfort myself by saying that this was an "irresistible accident". But this time it was in a state of complete "soberness......
Although it is not your own hands...... Gray subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, the NO.3 "undead" was gone, this time it was really gone, and he was very sure that he could feel that she was back in his body......
"Anyway, it's really not what I wanted."
Gray muttered to himself, straightening out the five warriors' remains, combing their messy hair, or wiping the blood off their faces...... In short, I want to do something for them in the end, which is a kind of useless compensation for my own peace of mind. I also tried to remember the appearance of each of them, but looking at their beautiful appearance and figure, I felt like a perverted/perverted murderer in a horror movie......
"People"? As he was trying to correct the frightening angle of the two-ponytailed warrior's head, Gray was suddenly stunned. Whether it's last time or this time, is this the psychology of killing "people"? Not like it at all! There is no remorse after doing something that will never be recovered, and there is no panic after a monstrous disaster. The mood at the moment is just similar to inadvertently killing a small animal, or accidentally breaking something...... There is only this level of guilt and uneasiness.
So what is I now? Gray held Harleen's face with a gloomy face, and in a slight "cluck" sound, he reset her head, only to find that Harleen's face seemed to have tears sliding down, but then he was embarrassed to find that it was not her "tears", but his own - saliva.
After strenuous exercise, my stomach is surprisingly hungry...... Damn it! Gray hurriedly covered his mouth with one hand, and wiped the saliva from the face of the two-ponytail warrior with the other. Originally, he was reluctant to go to the soil, but at this moment he hurriedly pushed the soil down.
watched her gradually drown in the mud, but there seemed to be a person in her heart, persuading herself step by step: Anyway, she is dead? After death, it's no longer a human being, it's just a piece of flesh in the form of a human, and although it stinks, it's okay...... And don't want to try it? Is it as presumed, as long as... You can get their ......
"Brute! Brute! ”
Gray gritted his teeth and buried them with soil as if he wanted to completely eliminate his evil thoughts in this way, but he still couldn't tell who the owner of each big sword was, so he hastily stuck it in front of the grave, and then left here as if he had fled......
……
At night, like a legendary martial arts master, he jumped into the window on the second floor of the hotel from the outside, but now Gray, who has long been accustomed to his own ability, has completely lost the original "fun" heart.
Why did you want to come back?
Standing naked in his room, Gray suddenly realized the question, why did he go back to the inn in this town, and went to the river to clean up in order to come back, knowing his current state...... It's dangerous. Even if you don't, will you be able to stay here? Will the organization plan for the next one after discovering that this crusade has failed? And the next time the fighter will definitely be stronger and more tricky than this time, and what will happen to him at that time? Let them kill? Or is it the same as this time......
"That...... Is Gray you? ”
Gray was awakened from his infinite speculation by a faint inquiry from the sudden faint sound of inquiry outside the door, it was Claire's voice......
"Well, it's me." Gray replied indistinctly. It's just that there is too much saliva secreted in the mouth, as if it is holding something...... Even through the door, you can smell the seductive scent of Claire outside......
"That's... Maybe it's a bit rude, I think your room is messy, and your clothes are ...... So when I come back in the afternoon, help you...... Hope you won't mind. ”
"No, no! Thank you so much. ”
Gray's face turned red when he heard this, and now he noticed that the room was much cleaner, and the dirty clothes that were crumpled and thrown on the chair were gone. Although he was crazy, he never thought about tidying up his room or doing laundry. And the awakened person's directional sense of smell made him not notice this smell, which already made Claire and them unbearable.
"If you don't mind, I just want to tell you this...... Also, good night. ”
As if relieved at last, Claire's voice returned to its usual lightness. But she suddenly realized that she had the audacity to call out the name of "demon" just now. For this strange "demon", the residents of the town naturally did not dare to call it "demon", but called it "sir", but how did Gray listen to it, how did he feel that this title had the meaning of "Taijun", so they asked them to call themselves by their names, but despite his repeated insistence, the title was still locked as "Mr. Gray".
"Good night." Gray replied with his back against the wooden door. The group wants to break through the door and put Claire ...... 's confused fantasies, I don't know when they disappeared......
……
Early the next morning, Gray yawned and came down from the second floor, and last night he had slept like an ordinary person for so long, and he slept very peacefully, and those warriors rarely did not appear in their dreams.
"Huh?"
Claire, who was sweeping the floor on the first floor, saw Gray coming down and showed her trademark smile, "Good morning, Mr. Gray. It's rare to see you sleep today, so I didn't bother you...... Leave breakfast for you, help you warm it now. ”
"I'm sorry for you."
With Gray's physique, he didn't need to eat ordinary food at all, but he insisted on eating three meals a day, as if doing so meant a lot to him. But as far as the truth goes, there is some benefit, and eating with the Calvins every day at least makes them sometimes careless forget the fact that they are not very human.
Looking at the back of Claire who went to the kitchen, Gray unconsciously smiled again, picked up the broom she had just put down, and planned to continue cleaning, but at this time, he sensed a huge demonic aura suddenly appearing in the direction of the town...... Not again! But this level of demonic energy is by no means something that warriors and demons can achieve, only awakened people like themselves......
After a short while, Gray appeared at the entrance of the town with a solemn face, looking at the girl who was wearing a simple and elegant dress, with short and medium purple hair, and looked a little familiar, and was waving to him with a smile on her face.
Seeing that she still maintains the appearance of her human body, her demonic qi fluctuations have also calmed down, as if there is no hostility at all, and she has just sensed her sudden burst of demonic energy, as if it is just to lure herself out. Faced with this situation, Gray naturally did not rashly "transform" to stimulate her. So he was secretly on guard, and stopped at a distance where he didn't affect communication with her, and was enough for his own reaction.
"Senpai, remember me." The girl teased her parted bangs and asked a little coquettishly.
Gray was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that she had met the spider-type awakened when she first arrived in this world...... What did she come to do? She looked like she was coming for herself.
"First of all, congratulations to the seniors, who beautifully solved the "trouble" of finding the door. The girl put her hands behind her back, bent slightly, and through the loose neckline of the dress, the view of wearing nothing inside was unobstructed, but she herself didn't seem to care at all.
Troublesome? Is it talking about the crusade we faced yesterday? Gray frowned, why would she know? Yesterday, I didn't feel any other demonic aura around there......
The purple-haired girl seemed to see Gray's confusion and took the initiative to explain, "We also have "eyes" on our side, to be precise, "eyes" in the past. ”
"Eye" seems to be the organization's name for a warrior who can sense demonic energy from a distance...... Wait a minute! She seems to mean "we"? The existence of the awakened in groups, and their vague memories are only ...... Gray involuntarily glanced to the north.
"Well, don't get me wrong, senior, I'm not the two of those in the north or the west."
The girl seemed to see what Gray was suspicious of, and raised her hand and waved, "It looks smart to cling to them, but it's actually stupid." Because those two are already completely different existences from us, the disparity in strength is too great, so naturally they can't talk about equivalence, and sooner or later they will either be killed by them or consumed as outcasts. That's what my predecessors thought too, right? ”
Gray was still digesting these words and didn't say anything, but the other party thought it was a tacit acquiescence and continued, "The seniors are probably so close to the south for the first time, so they don't know much about our south's "alliance" ......"
South? Coalition? Just as Gray was confused by these words, the girl changed the subject, "Let's find a place to sit down and talk." As he spoke, he poked into the town of Plainsville behind Gray, and the streets were empty. In the course of the conversation between the two just now, the townspeople found that the "demon" was chatting with a strange foreign woman there, and they would think that this was an ordinary woman...... So they all hid far away.
"My predecessor has been here for so long, so I think there should be a place to stay."
Can this awakened person enter the town? Gray thought so, but his body moved first, and he took a diagonal step to block her view. Faced with Gray's "food protection" move, the girl was stunned for a moment and then chuckled, "I didn't see that the seniors were so stingy." Don't worry, since my predecessors think this is your cafeteria, then I naturally won't make a rude act of picking up food in someone else's bowl. ”
The girl said and bypassed Gray and continued to walk towards the town of Plainsville, but after walking a few steps, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned her head to look at Gray who was still standing in place, "Oops, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Lacrena, what about you, senior?" ”
"Gray."
Gray replied absentmindedly. Her mind was still stuck in the struggle to stop her. If you insist on blocking it, you can't guarantee that she will turn her face, so let's not mention whether she can defeat her next. Listening to the meaning between the lines of her words, it is obvious that she is coming on behalf of a certain force...... If you rashly act with the envoy yourself, will this force see it as a signal of provocation? And is he in a situation where he is now enough to make enemies everywhere?
