I'm Actually Not Overpowered!-Chapter 131 One Versus Nine [Pt 1]

>BOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

I heard a deafening sound of crashing behind me, and it only got me irritated even more.

"You..." My tone was hoarse, my gaze murderous.

I knew the reason why.

"It's all YOUR fault."

? All this time, I had been placing all the burden on myself.

I had called myself useless, I had struggled to come up with answers, and I had to resort to many desperate attempts. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

'But, haven't I been seeing things backwards?' As my body rose from the devastated grounds, I ignored the devastated landscape and turned my attention to the two Demons behind me.

'It's their fault. The Demons... they're the cause.'

My fists were clenched, and my hot tears dried up. Welling within me was pain and loss, my heart kept trembling with fervor.

'YOU...' My clenched teeth sent a chilly sensation down my body, but the burning rage within me.would not subside.

'YOU MONSTERS!!!'

Right in front of me were two Demon Generals. One was fat and blue, while the second was the lion-headed one I encountered in the past.

I didn't care about anything more than that, though. They were my enemies.

"YOU DARE! YOU MERE HUMAN DARES?!" The loud bellow of the one I hit—the fatso—raged forth, and that only got me angrier.

He rose to his feet and the mark of my blow on his stomach healed rapidly. He grinned in obvious satisfaction, walking from the rubble that was once a building.

One step. Two steps. Three. Five. As I watched him walk with his legs, it seemed unforgiveable.

'Scum like you don't deserve legs!'

An absurd amount of energy burst from me instantly, and I lunged at the Demon, instantly reaching for his chubby legs.

"W-wha—?!" Much faster and stronger than this one, I tightly gripped his ankle and jerked my hand as fast as I could.

>SQUELCH!<

I tipped the first and proceeded to the second, ignoring his painful scream. As I reached for the second, I felt another Demon—his partner—approach me from behind.

"STAY BACK!" MY growl sent him stopping in shock, and I completed my mission by ripping the second leg off.

"GUARRRHHH!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING, HOGUN? ARGH! HELP MEE—!!!"

I instantly grabbed the monsters chubby throat, feeling its blue fatty skin squirm softly against my grip.

"Zip it!" I growled in greater annoyance.

>BOOOOOOMMMM!!!<

Lunging to the sky with flight, I took the Demon with me, ascending far into the clouds.

The Demon struggled to speak, but my grip simply tightened on its throat with each attempt. It struggled by flailing his flabby arms, all for nothing.

My velocity far exceeded the rate at which he could resist, so I had all the control.

>WHOOOSSSHHH<

Once I reached a particular threshold, I halted, flinging the blue Demon away while readying my fist with another powerful blow that would contain my anger and frustration.

"W-WAI—!!!"

>BOOOOOOMMMM!!!<

Shockwaves and ripples of distortion spread in the sky as I sent the Demon crashing down. I made sure to hit it directly on the face, crushing it's ugly nose and flabby mouth.

Now legless and with a devastated face, it fell to the ground, powerless to the force that drove him down.

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

The destruction upon impact spread across a far distance, generating a crater at the center. I remained afloat, watching the clouds of smoke form and disperse, thanks to the strong wind that blew.

"Monsters... it's all your fault..." My voice sounded hollow, but the echoes of my heart's frustration found expression there.

Then—!

"Hm?"

>VWOOOMMM<

A Demon lunged at me with immense speed, but I reacted quickly, grabbing it by the throat instantly. I stopped its punch and squeezed my hand on its neck.

Watching it choke brought me pleasure, and I tightened my grip even more.

"Another one?" I sensed another life form approach.

Crushing the throat of the one I held, I flung in in the direction of my next opponent, preparing my second fist for another powerful strike.

Once he came within range, I sent the blow flying, causing both to crash to the ground.

"More are gathering?" I looked around, seeing Demon Generals pop out like maggots.

The mere sight of them infuriated me. I kept my breathing steady, but my hurting heart kept beating fast and hard.

"Haa... haa..."

They all gathered on the ground—all nine of them—and I watched them from my height. Somehow, I felt inclined to descend, and so I did.

Slowly, I let gravity take its course and soon felt my feet touch the ground.

"You're the Legendary Dragon Slayer? You seem different... somehow."

My face twitched a little and I focused on the hatted Demon who spoke. His tone was so formal and composed. It infuriated me that he hid his savage nature underneath such a civilized facade.

However, that wasn't the reason behind my concentration on him.

"You... I from Lilith on you."

My fists were clenched, and I glared at the Demon with hard eyes.

"Where is she?"

"Ah, the brave Demon girl. She resisted our efforts so—"

"WHERE IS SHE?!!" My enraged voice echoed, sending shockwaves traveling throughout the city.

The dust around me parted. I awaited his answer. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

"She's dead. I killed her." His tone was calm... unremorseful.

As expected. All Demons were like that, weren't they? Crude and evil.

"I... I see..." My body trembled for what seemed like forever.

I would have loved to jump into action instantly and kill him, but I somehow found myself transfixed in this single position.

These were evil beings who took away everything and everyone I loved. Plus, the System had given me a Quest to eliminate them.

Slowly, I found my face growing numb. My expression dulled, my eyes sharpened. My trembling ceased. My heart was calm.

There really was no need to get to worked up. 'Thinking and regretting can come later.

Right now, there is only one thing that matters...' My cold gaze took in all nine of the Demon Generals that caused this calamity.

... The conclusion was quite simple, if you thought about it.

"You don't deserve to live."
