Chapter 316: The Monster Lurking in the Town
The clock of the clock tower rings.
In normal times, it announces the end of the day. On the weekend, the bell was just an unnoticed episode in the midst of a bustling crowd.
Approaching the end of the semester, the students were not distressed by the exams, but were a little excited because of the upcoming Winter Festival and the college competition. And the students also feel that the variety of people from other places in the college is gradually increasing.
These people, in addition to the early arrivals, are some organizations that want to reach some kind of cooperation with the Imperial Academy.
Thanks to them, the innkeepers of the college town counted the money and laughed.
Yumi's duty today was a tough one, and even though there wasn't anyone in the library, she had to stay in the old library until the bell rang and retreat.
That's all it takes, after all, Yumi can still read books and tease Soft. But the demon hunter's instinct made her sense many strange aurities in the academy, which were like monsters, but they were also slightly different.
In short, Yumi cares a lot about those breaths, to the point where she has to find out.
finally stayed up until the end of work, Yumi didn't even participate in the unit's dinner, and directly stuffed the soft into the shoulder bag to pursue these breaths.
But when the sun went down and after a few laps, Yumi found that he had wasted his time again and made a bunch of oolongs.
The "huge and conspicuous atmosphere" on the side of the function room warehouse is just a batch of fresh monster materials newly shipped, and I heard from the handover staff that these should be part of the college's big competition reward, and they should be put here for the time being.
The next suspicious person with "a faint monster aura on his body" is just a staff member who filled his own pockets and stole a carapace of some kind of huge insect monster. Yumi's appearance made the young man, who was probably a first-time offender, confess his crime at once, and then handed over the carapace to Yumi.
The "strong smell of monsters" after that is just a group of adventurers who have just returned from hunting in the south. In addition to carrying a bunch of materials, they even wore equipment from fighting monsters......
Is there a mistake!!
Although Yumi was depressed, he hurried to the next location, because the smell of "live, moving, slightly disguised, and pure" monsters came from that direction, and Yumi concluded that that place must be a villain who had mixed in!
Sure enough, will the people of the Ancient Demon Sect also take advantage of this time to sneak in?
Yumi hid his body and touched the back of a shop outside the academy, this shop is located in a remote location, and almost no one usually comes, and Yumi's perception of the location is inside!!
You can't go wrong this time!
Although Yumi kept hinting at herself, she still had a trace of concern in her heart. However, the experience of several previous failures has almost consumed her caution, coupled with the grinding feeling of holding back for a day and the torture of yesterday's drunken headache, Yumi can't wait to make a move!
If you want to say whether Yumi's patrol behavior after receiving the Demon Hunter Inheritance has any effect, probably only she knows best.
In the southeast plain, where the town of Academia is located, such things as monsters are almost extinct. If you don't count the softness in her bag, then the only monster that can appear is the ancient demon cultist hidden among the humans.
So what Yumi usually does, except for saving a kitten that is trapped under the roof and can't get here, is just simple parkour......
But in her heart, she has the dream of being a "demon hunter"!
So she shot!
She was sure that there was a monster in the room separated by a wall from her!
Hunted ...... It was supposed to be a human, and Yumi even heard the human's cry of discomfort.
Yumi jumped up with all his strength and jumped in through the window. The wooden window couldn't resist Yumi's bang, and it shattered with a thud.
As Yumi adjusted to the light in the room and continued to capture the indoor scene, a female voice sounded in her ears, as she wished.
"Stop!!"
Although he didn't know what the use of shouting when facing the enemy, Yumi still subconsciously shouted it based on the experience he had seen in the story.
“...... What are you doing?"
Ellie stood naked on the sidelines, frowning and looking at Yumi suspiciously, who was in a half-crouching position.
It's not really true that she is naked, after all, Ellie still has a layer of simple underwear made of black soft exoskeleton.
"......" Yumi was stunned.
The house is small but has bright lights. The exclamation was from a woman leaning against a distant wall, still in shock, but clutching a tape measure tightly in her hand.
Looking at the rest of the room, there was a row of shelves fixed to the walls high above the walls, on which were placed one piece of cloth one by one, and a sewing machine was placed opposite, and on the sewing machine hung an old spar lamp, the light refracted through the mirrors in the room, making the room appear quite bright.
"What's wrong?!"
The door to the room opened, and Balotte and Heidi squeezed in, stunned at the scene before them.
Heidi blushed strangely and stepped back, and a curious Marlena poked her head in.
“......”
Yumi's face turned red as soon as she brushed it, and she already realized that she seemed to have made another oolong. It's so good to die, but the other party is still Ellie, who doesn't look at her eye right......
"Ahhhh
"......" Ellie's face was puzzled, and then her eyes turned to the backpack Yumi had left behind, and she had already discovered that it contained a weak monster.
And Squishy obviously also noticed the powerful "monster" in front of him, hiding in his bag and shivering, not daring to poke his head out.
The sound of footsteps in the distance gradually faded away, and then began to gradually amplify again. Yumi, blushing in and sneaking up next to Ellie, grabbed her shoulder bag and went back the way she came.
“...... Don't go yet. ”
"What do you want!!" Yumi looked angry: "Don't ...... Don't think you're going to win......! I was just careless!"
In fact, Yumi herself is a little confused, and her speech is a little incoherent, although she has never been nervous when faced with objects, but now this situation has surpassed her experience.
Ellie pointed to a window fragment on the ground: "Compensation for the boss's windows." ”
Oh yes...... I broke the window......
"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way......" The woman holding the tape measure seemed to react, and quickly waved her hand, showing a kind smile.
Although there is still shock in the smile that has not dissipated.
"Then boss, you go ahead. Ellie spread her arms and motioned for the tailor shop owner to continue to measure her.
