Episode 67: Copper Adventurer Lent and Rat

Mouse movement is simple.

It would still be very quick from a normal human being and difficult to catch.

But not for adventurers.

Before physical abilities enhanced by magic and chi, demons of the order of mice (petite squirrels) were only good.

Shake the knife gently on the flying mouse (Petite Suri) and cleave.

That alone was powerful enough to blow away thanks to magic and the human detached physical ability of this body.

A mouse (Petite Suri) collided with the wall as it was and slipped off as it drifted.

Seems like he's still breathing, but he's almost a bug breath.

All I had to do was stab a stop...... so I slowly approached him and shook up the knife and he still seemed a little energetic and came this way to jump.

I just tried to twist my body, not too fast, and I remembered that there are people behind me today.

Maybe it wasn't a good idea that the days I was fighting solo were too long.

I was distracted by all my safety and lost my judgment for a moment.

Of course, I couldn't go through the demons there more than with Alize behind me, and pulling the knife back was a delicate position.

I had no choice but to punch him with the other hand without a knife, but because I hurried to stick my hand out, I was just hit by the area where the pointy teeth of the mouse (Petite Suri) were growing.

I felt a slight tingle in my hand, but now I am more of a demon than that.

When the blown mouse (Petite Suri) was packed with distance and thought it was time to stop it, the mouse (Petite Suri) suddenly began to suffer as it fell to the ground.

…… What? "

Strange and distant.

Because you don't know what the hell is going to happen.

Once the mouse (Petite Shrimp) had burst, and after a while it calmed down, the color of the mouse (Petite Shrimp), which had previously been gray, was dyed black.

And at the same time, I feel weird.

When I saw the slowly raised mouse (Petite Suri), it stared at me and stood still on the spot.

I see each other... and I get it.

He (...) connected with me (...), and.

I put the knife down, but I approach quietly without breaking my guard.

The mouse (Petite Shrimp) still doesn't come at me and is still there in good behavior.

"... hey what? What happened to you?

I can hear Alize's confused voice from behind.

I don't really know either... for now, to a still mouse (Petite Suri),

"... by your side, Kamame"

And I said.

Then the mouse (Petite Suri) acted exactly as it was ordered.

Seeing that, Alize's confusion seemed to have deepened even further,

"What? Huh? What do you mean?"

Says.

But I kind of understood.

Earlier, when I looked at the hands of those who slapped the mouse (Petite Suri), I saw some of the gloves torn and a little bit of dark liquid flowing from them.

For once, it is blood.

The majority of the corpse ghost Shiki's body is dry, but there are quite a few human-like parts as well.

Unlike when he was a corpse-eating ghost, Ghoul, he was bleeding.

Well, still, cutting it hardly flows.

The place where the mouse (Petite Shrimp) bit seemed to be exactly where I was, that seemingly living part.

And the blood entered the body of a mouse (Petite Suri) ….

I think the result is what it is now.

The corpse ghost Shishi is a kind of vampire.

Vampires "vampires" make their own families by biting and pouring their blood into humans.

A kind of family member is the corpse ghost Shishi, but can the corpse ghost Shishi also make family members?

Generally, it is not possible.

But isn't that because, by nature, the corpse ghost Shiki is not clearly self-conscious, and because he acts according to his instincts, he can't consciously carry out acts such as making relatives?

No, even if you make a family, because you don't give instructions, doesn't it look like you don't have any family?

But what if the corpse ghost Shiki had a clear sense of self-consciousness?

Can we also make relatives and make them listen to orders like vampires Vampires?

And that method might be the same as vampire Vampires do, letting their own blood get to them.

Vampires take their blood into their families, but their physical abilities increase.

You have to change your body.

And that mouse just took my blood in.

That altered my body, and that's why I was suffering like that.

And now I feel a connection with that mouse.

Do you call it a somewhat oddly close feeling, or do you call it a feeling that when you use this body as the main body now, the little self you divide from it is there?

That's the feeling.

That mouse (Petite Shrimp), in other words, became my family.

Isn't that what it is?

I thought so.

But it wouldn't be nice to Alize a story like that.

Anyway, only some demons, such as the vampire Vampire, can do that.

But I can't possibly not explain this state of affairs.

I've already noticed something strange.

Well, don't even say it's just the right explanation.

I said.

"Probably, but he's connected with me now."

The Path.

By the way, this is the terminology used by Monster Tamer, an exorcist.

When they can follow a demon, they establish and manipulate a connection between the demon and the demon called the Path with special magic.

In other words, I decided to survive my family's subjugation.

"Uh... I mean, what do you mean?

But Alize doesn't seem to have the knowledge of Monster Tamer.

It never occurred to me right from my dialogue.

I'll snort at it and explain it in more detail.

"I was able to make that happen all the time."

"... were you the Monster Tamer, the Obedient Master?

This seems to be the first time I've understood.

I'm not a Monster Tamer, but it's the story I wanted.

However, if you do a little research, you will soon find out that I am not Monster Tamer, etc.

So I decided to talk about the area in a lot of turbidity.

"No, I'm a pain in the ass, but thank you very much. I tried."

"Heh... I knew you could do a lot of adventurers? Wow."

The special magic of Monster Tamer is basically close to being out of the door, and since I can't learn to do so, it's Alize's mistake, but I don't make any particular corrections.

If you look into me one more time, you won't have a problem because you can't tell me that's never going to happen.

says Alize.

"So this demon doesn't come under attack anymore?

I can answer this question properly without being particularly deluded.

I told her.

"Oh. On the contrary, I'm going to ask you something... just in time, so let's have this little one stay with him. Things get stuck here, don't they?

That's why Lillian was in trouble because he couldn't purify this place with holiness.

It's not a bad story to think that just the right keeper got it.

To this, Alize,

"I hope you're not really attacking me, but you're gonna be okay, aren't you?

He questioned me suspiciously, but eventually he was convinced that Alizé would not attack the mouse (Petite Suri) in any way.
