First Monster Slaughtered

The boy closed his eyes while unconscious.

The boy slowly opens his eyes after a while.

'blinks twice slowly'

'ha!!'

While the monkey stands next to him, the boy stands up and cries out in pain, "My head hurts."

The man is standing close to a sizable portal, completely covered in dark and purple eyes. He examines his hand before walking away with no signs of injury to his head or face. The boy is taken aback by this. He imagines in his head

What is this, did I get healed by that person?

The man looks at the boy and grabs him from his shirt. Through the boy into the big portal.

'aahhhhhh'

He emerges from the other side of the portal and begins to descend to the ground. The monkey exits the portal as well.

'!?'

While the boy lands on the ground fairly roughly, the monkey joins the boy and jumps, "Pow," landing safely.

'ouch'

He stands up and asks, "What kind of mess is this? Strange things are occurring today. Has something I did cause me to be cursed? Well, he gets to his feet and shakes the dust off his shirt.

He was taken to a forest, but all that was there when he arrived was some sparse grass and far-off trees.

'rustling bushes'

'!?' 'who's there?'

The boy watches the bushes as they move. The boy is being approached. The boy felt a little scared, but he kept his eyes on the shifting bushes. The object begins to draw nearer and nearer, making the boy more and more terrified. Then, out of nowhere, the money's face emerges from the undergrowth.

'hoof! I thought there was some wild animal there…but you're worse than those wild animals'

The boy recalls that he left his dragger behind when he attacked the monster's eyes as he examines his hand.

No, you're lucky today, but keep in mind that I'll get back at you eventually.

'step…step'

'!'

The boy hears heavy footsteps coming from behind him, and then an enormous monster that is much larger than himself appears. Slowly, the boy rotates his head to look at the monster's face. The monster looks back at him with two horns on his face and black eyes.

'guess my day can't get any worse'

'Rrrroooaaaarrrr'

'heee'

The creature raises a fist and rushes toward the young boy. The boy somehow avoids the punch, but as soon as his feet begin to wobble, "ha ha ha," he tries to balance himself, but it's too late.

The monster swings his fist at the boy once more.

'Bang'

The punches hit on the boy's face

'Kugh'

The boy's face and nose are covered in blood. He strikes again, this time striking the victim in the stomach.

'kugh'

The boy's mouth starts to spew more blood. The boy collapses to his knees with a loud "thud" and appears to be dead. eyes almost disappear.

'huh, hugh'

The young man had a menacing expression on his face. Punch the monster in the gut "hhhaaa."

'!?'

The boy punched the monster, but it had no effect. Guess this monster is too big to kill, huh?

'grab' 'hmmm!!'

The monster snatches the boy by the face, throwing him to the ground with a loud "thud."

As the boy utters "argh," the ground shatters. The boy was completely unconscious, his face was covered in blood, and his eyes were open but couldn't be seen.

The monster steps back while repositioning his hand. He abruptly becomes aware of the monkey that was with the boy. The monster was emitting an intense aura, but the monkey remained motionless as they both stared at each other for a while.

The monster strikes the monkey with his fist first, but the monkey easily avoids the punch as the monster shifts his fist in his direction. Once more, the monkey avoids the attack with ease. The monster became enraged as a result.

'RRROOOAAARRR'

He repeatedly strikes the monkey with his fist. But the monkey avoids the blow time and time again.

A dragger fell from the sky, making a "Thud" sound as it hit the ground close to the unconscious boy, who then began to open his eyes.

'eh…eh'

'ahh…'

The boy gets up again and

'!!!'

He observes the dragger lying on the ground with a dark aura emanating from it. He takes the dragger in hand and gives him a close inspection.

'amazing My dragger is nothing in comparison to this; I've never experienced this level of power before. I wish I had had this one sooner, but'

This boy scans his surroundings before gazing up at the sky.

Was the noise produced by the dragger?

'Smash'

When the boy saw the monster attacking the monkey, he considered running away but decided against it.

Why am I so certain that this is the only monster hiding here? There may be multiple."

The boy briefly loses consciousness before coming to.

'huh!? Okay, that's my decision. I hope I don't look back on it and regret it like I did the last one.

The monster, distracted by the monkey, then experienced a sudden sense of being followed. He turns around and looks back, but no one was there. He observes the youngster flying while grasping the dragger in both hands.

'aaahhh'

The monster is killed instantly when the boy stabs the dragger in the head of the creature. Along with the boys, his body hits the ground.

'Gasp…Gasp…Gasp'

The boy exhales deeply and beams, "Finally I killed a monster, ha ha ha ha."

Monsters returned, but this time there were two instead of one, so the boy's smile and laughter did not last long. The boy, who is severely injured and lying on the ground, turns to face the monster.

I guess I'll just have to pass away at this point because I can't move my body, but...

The boy makes every effort to stand up again and succeeds in doing so.

'I'm not that bad after all'

The boy smiled, but he was scared and anxious on the inside. The boy in question said, "I just don't want to die, but I am in a position where I have to kill or be killed."

'!?'

Along with the boy, the monkey advances to assist him.

Can I actually believe this monkey?

The boy was still unsure because the monkey had never assisted him, but thanks to the monkey's distraction of the monster, he was able to kill it.

'you ready monkey?'

The monkey looked at the boy and shook his head, the boy said, "Did he really understand me just now?"

'rrroooaaarrrr'

The monster charged at the boy and the monkey while roaring.

'Okay! then monkey you take the right one, I'll look after the left one, but let's dash for the forest to ambush them there separately.

When the boy and the monkey enter the forest and flee in separate directions, one monster is pursuing the monkey and the other is pursuing the boy as they run away through the forest.

"It worked, now let's deal with this one,"

After entering the dense forest, the monster stopped running and began to walk while keeping an eye out for the boy.

'I just hope it works'

The boy was observing the monster from above as he stood in the tall trees above it.

'Jump'

He leaps from the tree and fires his dragger at the monster's head, but... The monster raises its head and steps aside.

'What!?'

The monster moved aside, which startled the boy. The monster strikes the boy with a fist. The boy hit a huge tree after taking a flying leap.

'thud'

'Cough…Cough…Cough

"D*m it, I can't take it any longer; my body is at its breaking point; if I move, my body will start to fall apart."

'Step….Step….Step'

'Snap'

The monster approaches the boy after severing a large branch from the tree.

'Haaa'

With his right eye open, the boy grinned and looked at the monster. "You are dead,"

'?'

The monster was perplexed by the boy's smile.

'Ghar..Ghar…Ghar'

Another enormous monster lion with two horns on his head and standing on two legs suddenly appears from behind and slams the monster's head with his bare hand.

Since he only attacks monsters that enter his territory and ignores humans, I consider myself extremely lucky to have discovered this beast in this forest.

After killing the monster, the leomarch turns to face the young boy before turning around and leaving while he is still lying under the tree.

The boy's eyes close once more, and he passes out once more.
