7 Unique Power

"M-Milady…"

"Did you come to learn the truth about their relationship?"

"Y-Yes Milady!"

"Tell me already. What are you waiting for?"

"General Anderson and Raul are a couple Ma'am."

"A couple of troublemakers you mean?"

"N-No, about their relationship, they are a couple."

"Huh? What are you talking about? Spit it out already!"

"They love each other! Gay milady! Gay!"

The princess was speechless, but she managed to get a hold of herself.

"Is that true?"

"The employer of Raul, the public, and even the newscaster said it so. They even witness the scene where general Anderson confesses his love to the public!"

"Did you manage to force him to use his powers?"

"The guild that I hired, the G-Garden of Shadows fail to do so. They told me that a human wouldn't force himself to be a meat seller even if his powers are not a combat kind. Human tends to show off their skill."

"That works, but I got the feeling that he is the cunning type. The one that hides and blends with the people around him. Who knows what power he got to be able to survive that long in the forest. It might even attract people of his sex."

The princess started to guess Raul power as the logic of being in a relationship that fasts especially the people of the same sex. General Anderson has led, hundreds and even thousands of men. It doesn't make sense that he suddenly falls in love with this human.

"General"

"Yes, sir!"

General Anderson was practicing his skills when he got called out by the coachman.

"How're the recruits coming along?"

"They are well motivated and has learned the basic commands. Ready to be deployed within two weeks, sir!"

"Excellent, has the supplies for winter been prepared yet?"

"Not yet, it seems there was an attack on the carriage. My men are making trips to move and repair the carriage. Estimate around three more weeks before it gets here."

"That's worrying, round up some men to hunt more monsters to make dry meat. You are dismissed!"

"Yes, sir right away!"

"Oh! Before I forget, are you in a relationship with Raul?"

"...…."

Blue screen of death probably has appeared inside her head.

"The whole kingdom has gotten this piece of information."

"….. HUH!? What… how!?"

"So, it's true then. It seems the citizen saw you pushing Raul to the wall and dramatically confesses your love to him."

"I-I…"

"I don't care about your private life, but don't ever get it to mix with work. You got that?"

"Y-Yes, sir!"

After the coachman has left, Anderson started remembering the scene where she shoves Raul to the wall.

"T-This is so wrong! Different from what I did!! In truth, he was the one that confesses… Kyaa!"

Anderson went to his/her world, steams started coming out from her ear. It's the coachman fault that the recruit didn't get to rest that day. The general didn't come back. Thus they were forced to continue practicing their commands and attack sequence.

Meanwhile, I am suffering because of this guild manager. He told me it was going to be easy. I don't need to think at all even when we are currently out in the forest. He said everything is well planned, and I do not need to worry about anything at all.

Well, guess what!?

I am worrying whether my shoulder and arms are going to survive today. They might pop off any second now. I got my answer when I saw the guy that was somehow being abused by their guild members in the previous chapter. A direct face-smacking answer, I am currently taking his role. It is called a porter, also can be called a bearer I guess whichever way that you guys can understand.

My job is to carry all the goods and resources that they have found in the forest. Yeah to summarize in one word, 'slave.' This son of a b*tch lied to me. I should have gone back to that meat selling owner and work with him for a few more days before I could get my sword.

Now, I am stuck with this guy for a whole three days. God dammit! Hmph saying some words to justify his actions that he is going to a village to do some scouting. In fact, they were going around the village looking for herbs that were found by one of the newbie guildmates.

Hope they get attack by some monster…

A sudden vibration was felt from the ground. C-Can I take back my words?

Sounds of a massive beast roaring*

Apparently not. Hey, you should cut me some slacks man. I am already f*cking tired of carrying these goods and all. Sigh* Time to find somewhere to hide.

"Raul! Come over here, gather as much herb as you can while we entertain that beast."

This son of a b*tch…

"Sure… Sure…"

Well, at least he didn't force me to join him to fight that humongous beast. I throw all the goods that I was carrying on the ground and started to gather all the herbs. Hopefully, they won't pull the beast here.

It took them about half an hour before they manage to end the beast life. It was Jason past group apparently, so their actions sync with each other. It was beautiful, his team consist of an archer, barbarian, magician and finally a scout. Jason got his nickname blitz cannon because of his skill of being able to create explosion upon hitting the ground.

Not exactly a useful skill as it will cause friendly damage and at the same time endangering one life. Another way to look at it, he could damage multiple enemies if he got cornered and his health and stamina are extraordinary. Ultimately his strength and damage are exceptional.

The way he blocked the beast head-on was excellent, well the sad thing is that his agility is on the low side thus he is forced to block most of the attack from the beast. You asked me how I saw this?

I had managed to finish collecting all the herbs. I was slacking away while looking at them risking their lives. One good thing about being a porter I guess? Now though, looking at that massive beast. Am I going to die carrying that thing?

~

"Hahahaha! Jokes on you!"

"…. Err… What kind?"

"Our objective today is to find and eliminate this beast. It was reported that a huge beast was spotted around the area. This beast here doesn't eat people. Instead, they aim for those herbs that you are carrying."

Oi, what kind of a joke is that!? So, all this time the beast was targeting me!!? This son of a b*tch, I hate him.

"Ha…. Ha…Ha…" I tried to laugh with them but my emotion wasn't there at all.

"Damn you are so lucky, we didn't think our group was able to kite that beast around till he was too tired to chase ya!"

He looks like he is already prepared to abandon me.

"Now we can celebrate and enjoy for two whole days in the village!!"

"Woohoo!!"

"I go make a report to the village."

The scout of the group goes on ahead and inform the villages. A few minutes later, five carts reached our location. The rest of the group were cutting the beast by parts. It felt like they had killed this beast multiple times.

They even know the way to cut the meat and avoid the hard bones. I was too useless to help, so I opt to be the role of a temporary scout.

I don't think I have the strength to even cut the skin of the beast. By the time the carts arrived, they were already halfway through for all the edible parts of the beast.

[Would you like to process this meat into a weapon?]

Huh? What?

A window suddenly pops up, blocking my view. I can change this meat into a weapon? How does that even work? Meat sword? Eww…

P-Power… This is my power! The ability to change something into a weapon! That's… Not sure if that's going to be useful, but hey I could mass produce… I could see myself being abducted to create an abundance of weapons. I shouldn't reveal this power of mine at all.

Damn, I am too excited! I didn't think I have this kind of power! I haven't tried it but thinking about it makes me want to jump for joy!

"Hey gay! Stop laughing to yourself. You look like a mentally disabled kid."

This b*tch, should I kill him? Calm down Raul, look at a bright side I might have some mental problems though. Seeing pops up within my head. Am I delusional right now?

Looking at them drinking that undrinkable beer, I'm amazed at them. I tried it once, but the taste forces me to vomit it out back. Tears were coming out from my eyes as I tried to act natural but failed to do so.

Everyone was celebrating, even the villagers. Jason donated parts of the meat to the village. They look like someone had given them a wife for them to keep. They look so happy there were a few that started moaning and the chief wife were looking at us while licking her lips.

We are not food you know?

I should invest in helping these villagers out. They look so miserable. I got the power to do so, but do I have the courage to carry out my plans?

Sigh*

I took a couple of bones from the beast, Jason told me that it was a useless part and wanted me to throw it away as no one would buy it. It is the weakest part of the bone, and it was unnecessarily burdensome, the profit of selling it is not worth it.

The number of things we are carrying is too limited. I told him I would like to practice carving these bones and make it into a weapon.

After most of the people had gone to sleep, I went into my assign room that the village generously lends it to us for these two days. I smile to myself, placing the bone side by side on the ground, I thought to myself, this is my moment!
