I'm Actually Not Overpowered!-Chapter 130 A Certain Cry
[North Gate]
"Puack!" Blood proceeded from Sarah's mouth as she regurgitated a mix of saliva and the crimson liquid.
Her body shook immensely, and for good reason.
When one's boy was being crushed underfoot the giant leg of a massive Demon General, it was only natural to feel so much pain and agony.
'It hurts! It hurts!' Her thoughts echoed.
Her head powerlessly bobbed as she tried her best to escape her position, but it was impossible. She could do nothing but watch the Demon General feed on Zabdel, the last of her surviving comrades.
Asa, Gu, Liebert, and everyone else had been killed already.
The reason she had survived this long was due to the Blessing Of Healing. Still, what use was being alive if one had to suffer such indescribable agony?
"Hmmm... this isn't tender enough. What did I expect from an Adventurer dreg? But... that Elf girl sure was delicious, so I had high expectations..." Shuuma, the chubby blue Demon, mumbled as he finally consumed Zabdel.
"Finish the work quickly. We still have to investigate and destroy the property." His colleague muttered beside him.
"You're still worried about the Dragon Slayer? I mean... look around you, Hogun. It's over. We've killed a lot of his colleagues. The others would have done the same as well." Shuuma cackled as his belly jiggled.
This loud laugh caused winds to part, and the area was filled with a deafening echo.
"Well... there's that factor to consider."
The more he thought of it, the more Hogun was conflicted. Had he overestimated the Legendary Dragon Slayer's insight and abilities?
If so, that meant they were on the winning end. There was no need to be impatient and on edge. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
'Yet what is this uneasy feeling. Why do I feel this way—?'
"He's coming!" The female Priestess' voice burst forth.
"Hm?" Hogun stared in her direction with milf curiousity as to what drove her conviction.
"He's going to stop all of you. He is going to fix everything! He always does and he wi—"
>CHOMP!<
Before the Priestess could complete her statement, Shuuma bit a considerable portion of her body off, causing her to scream in pain.
Blood gushed out of her body, but the cruel Demon simply healed her continued with his bike act.
As he kept eating and healing her, Hogun simply watching with increased curiousity and a lurking fear that had now gotten stronger.
'Why is she so certain? Even now...'
Even as Shuuma inflicted her with so much pain, she never yielded.
"Food should be silent! The only noise you should make is screams!" He chomped even more in complaint.
Finally unable to take her fanatical rant, he completely devoured the Priestess.
"All done. No more survivors, right?" He adorably spoke, wiping the remnant blood on his face.
There were some stains on his blue body, but those simply washed out on their own.
"Yeah... let's wait to converge with the others. They should be here soon. Ah, we should also contact Adu..."
"He could still be busy with the Dragon Slayer dude..."
"... Or, he could be dead."
"Come on, man. Give Adu some credit. He's not dumb enough to risk his life in any venture. He could easily escape if he wanted to. Let's gather with the rest first."
Hogun sounded like an overly paranoid character, so he decided to tone things down a bit. 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
'I hope I'm just overreacting. Or else...'
Suddenly, he felt it.
No—not just him! Every Demon General felt it! Wherever they were, they sensed something powerful come their way.
It pierced through the sky and was headed straight for Dulum, like a blazing meteor.
"W-wha—?!" Hogun watched the speeding being trail past himself and Shuuma and land a distance away.
The energy shrouding the being was a bit different than he remembered, but as the dust settled and the suspense rose, Hogun could clearly see the person who made his entrance.
It was none other than the person he had worrying about!
"He's here..." Hogun glanced at Shuuma, who did not appear the least bit fazed.
"That slacker, Adu. What does he think he's doing? The guy is here too early."
They both watched in silence, observing the young man crumble to his knees. He did not resemble the same person Hogun recognized to be the Legendary Dragon Slayer.
It was the opposite, actually.
The man who was now sobbing and apologizing to thin air simply resembled a pathetic human.
A weak, pathetic human!
"Hehe, looks like you were young." Shuuma laughed as he began walking forward.
Hogun was simply left speechless, unable to tell how he felt. He felt somewhat moved, even when seeing the Dragon Slayer's tears and cries of despondency.
Shuuma approached the wailing human, clearly with a sadistic grin plastered on his face.
He sought amusement and his next meal. If the man would do him that favor, then he simply had to indulge in it.
"Hey, where's Adu? That slacker was supposed to be in charge of you." Shuuma spoke, now already overhead the man he was speaking to.
The Legendary Dragon Slayer's back was open to attack, and Shumma felt like he could end him at any time. But first... he had to know about his colleague.
'Thanks to Hogun planting strange ideas in my head, a part of me is still hesitant...' There ass the idea that perhaps the Dragon Slayer killed Adu.
But from what Shuuma was seeing, that was highly unlikely.
"Oi! Talk to me! I'm speaking to you, human."
Shuuma was usually a passive Demon, especially when addressing his colleagues and superiors. His gentle demeanor was deceptive, however.
It was only when among inferior beings that the Demon's sadistic side blossomed. Anytime he saw weak people, his natural instinct was to crush them.
"Accept..." The Legendary Dragon Slayer's voice was low, but Shuuma had definitely heard something along those lines.
The Statement was followed by another—even more bizarre—one.
"200 Stat Points, Strength..."
"Hm? Hey, what are you muttering you little—"
>WHOOOOMMM!!!<
In a simple flash, Shuuma was hit by something drastically heavy—overwhelmingly so—and his body was instantly propelled back.
>BOOOOOMMMMMM<
