My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

Happy Monday!

Heres the chapter. Its a bit short, but I hope you enjoy it.

ED: Ignite

The festival in Uruk?

When we asked him if we could go to the festival, Kurou raised his voice like I did.

Maa, it was confusing.

We fought the demons, and barely escaped with our lives. Upon returning home, we were greeted by multiple newcomers, only to be invited to partake in the festival with them on the following day.

If it were me, I wouldnt want to let that group of people stay at my house either.

are you going?

When I asked that, Kurou frowned and sank into silence.

It was an unpleasant place where the guy who killed his younger sister was residing in.

I dont know why he had yet to exact his revenge up until now, but it would take courage for him to go.

Do you really want to go?

Yes. Amelia wanted to go as well. She, by nature, has a weakness for food.

I see, Kurou muttered, and blankly stared into space, just like Yoru did last night.

I sighed.

The hero and the others went to go help with the reconstruction of the town.

Amelia and Yoru went out with Zeal-san.

They went to harvest some things in the mountain, likely due to the increase in the number of people residing at Kurous home.

Mountain climbing was still too tough for me, so Kurou and I were left to housesit.

After having put up with the silence for a while, I tried inviting Kurou as well.

I heard about Kurou and Yorus encounter and about Kurous younger sister from Amelia.

I also had a younger sister, so I somewhat understood his feelings.

No matter how much we fight, even if she said, I hate you, shes still my precious family.

Yui and I were born at almost exactly the same time, so we were much closer than normal siblings.

Yui didnt hesitate in saying that the doctor made a mistake and that she was actually supposed to be the big sister, and she definitely never thought of me as a big brother, even now.

She was extremely unwilling to call me onii-chan.

However, no matter how cheeky she was, she would always be a cute younger sister to me.

If Yui was killed by someone before I returned, I dont think I would be able to stop myself.

I would use any and every means to make them regret it.

This was my opinion, and Id imagine Kurous opinion wasnt much different

do you want to know why I dont destroy my younger sisters enemy even though I know the truth?

Kurou said that and waved his tail.

I looked at Kurou with surprise.

His eyes that were staring into space had looked directly at me.

However, there was no light in those obsidian eyes.

I can guess your thoughts when I look into your eyes. You have a poker face, but the eyes speak louder than words.

Perhaps it was because his appearance looked to be around the same age as Zeal-san, I sometimes forget that Kurou was someone who had lived for more than a century.

Kurou started talking with a peaceful look on his face.

There are two reasons. First off, I dont think that my younger sister would approve of me dirtying my hands with the blood of our brethren, regardless of the circumstances. The second reason is.

He said this, and swung his fist down onto his knee in frustration.

Because of my age, I cant fight for a long time. A human might not be able to understand, but the aging of us beastmen happens all at once. There are also many brethren who, one day, became confined to the bed even though they had been moving around energetically the day before.

Hee, my voice unconsciously leaked out.

It seems to be an aging process characteristic of the beastmen.

I didnt know that.

There are individual differences, but in my case, it was early. Almost immediately after my younger sister died, I gathered information on Gram and this took fifty years. I had come up with a plan, but I aged when I was about to put it into practice. Because I had done many reckless things when I was young, the deterioration began ahead of time.

Kurou had a self-deprecating smile on his lips.

It seems that Gram had quite the luck in escaping trouble.

Or, was it that Kurou had none at all.

Rias staff, that was something I made. I had made that for her long before that girl entered the royal family because she would be the Hand of Protection in the future. It is the best staff that Ive made. It notified me of your critical situation. I had hesitated on whether to go help you guys though.

Which meant that, the ones who saved our lives were Kurou and Ria, huh.

For them to have known each other before she had entered the royal family.

What kind of relationship did they have?

There was a reason why I saved you.

As I was thinking about the relationship between Kurou and Ria, Kurou said this with a serious expression on his face and looked at me.

He was looking directly at me just like he did a while ago, but unlike before, there was a strange light within those eyes.

I held my breath when I saw it.

what.

I couldnt think of what he was going to say to me. I asked this while confused.

The light was still flickering within Kurous eyes, as a slight smile floated on his lips.
