Chapter 104: Suspicious

Soooo...

You're telling me that dying is how you come back?

What...

Nevermind that then, let's just see how long I've been out.

Walking outside, I bump into Arteria.

<Hey Arteria.>

I wave my hand towards her.

"Hey..."

She responds.

<How long have I been out?>

I ask her.

"I don't know, taking care of you isn't my job."

"That job's for my apprenti- HUH?"

"How do you know my name?"

Brushing off my question, she figures it out.

Oops...

It must've slipped my tongue...

<Well...>

Sweating, I try to hide it.

"What is that... Weird stuff coming off you."

<What weird stuff?>

Then I realized.

They don't have sweat in Hell...

<Ummmmm...>

<I-it's just some sand from when I was s-sleeping on the floor.>

Nervously, I stutter while talking to her.

"Oh ok."

"I guess, I'll just go now."

Breathing a sigh of relief, I walk away.

Arteria POV

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He is definitely not from here...

Knowing my name?

Being able to resist my shoulder grab? (From when they first met.)

No normal demon could be able to survive that.

Yeah...

I know my nickname...

The rookie killer...

They even made rumors of rookies dying inside here.

Sadly though, they didn't give me the credit I deserved.

Blamed it on our Inkei.

NO!!!

OBVIOUSLY IT WAS ME!!!

I MEAN!!!

He's so nice...

Always treating me to some extra beast meat...

*Begins to drool*

A-anyway, there is no way that he would do that.

Perhaps...

I should stop killing rookies?

Maybe that way his reputation will be saved.

"Ah hello!"

Out of nowhere, a newbie arrives and stands next to me.

"Uhhh..."

"Where do I g- ACKKKK!!!"

<SHUT UP!!!>

<YOU'RE TOO LOUD!!!>

Picking up the newbies body, I crush his head to a bloody mess.

Whoops...
