My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

Happy Wednesday!

Here is the chapter, enjoy.

ED: Ignite

Just as there was some awkwardness between Yoru and I, Ria spoke.

I was completely unaware that this was happening. Perhaps the royal family of that time had suppressed it. Everything that we know came from what was written in the records. They told of a story where the demon king offered a peace treaty, which made the people lower their guard and thus, unaware of an attack from the demons

How stupid of the royal family to hide such crucial information from the people.

Maa, if the royal family released the information without even regulating it, in that case, it would be concerning, but its irritating that they didnt tell people what actually happened and suppressed it.

Really, why was it that people, no matter which world it was, could not live peaceful lives.

Who was right, who was wrong, it doesnt really matter. In a world where magic exists, something like memories could be easily altered. in other worlds, if you want to believe in something, you have to see it for yourself.

While I call myself an assassin, I have yet to kill anyone. I simply didnt have the resolve to kill another person.

I didnt want to kill anyone.

Even though I had the power, even though I could use powerful magic, my heart was otherwise weak.

I didnt want to kill, or be killed.

However, from now on, I may not be able to say such a thing.

I need to come to terms with it as well.

At this time, if it was that guy, if it was Kyousuke, what would he do.

There was barely any conversation, and a few hours after that, we reached the eightieth floor.

Yoru did not go easy on the bosses either, trampling them, perhaps in consideration of my depleted magic due to my repeated use of shadow magic.

I think that it couldnt be helped that I unconsciously pitied those monsters who were trampled on.

It was extremely pitiful.

They readied themselves, and had a magnificent entry as the floor boss, and yet, they were instantly killed.

Moreover, by a monster like them.

If this wasnt pitiful, then what was.

However, we had passed through the seventieth floor in such a relaxed manner, until things turned tense.

The magic that seemed to belong to the demon gradually became thicker.

The magic concentration was so thick that if it had been normal humans, they would have trouble breathing.

For the places that we just happened to pass by to have this degree of magic.

Rescuing Amelia was of the highest priority and it would be wise to avoid confrontation with the demon.

Yoru. Im going to useShadow Magic.

it cant be helped. Ill leave it to you, Master-dono.

I said that in front of the boss room, and Yoru sighed as he reluctantly agreed.

The seventieth floor boss from just now was one that Yoru was not able to defeat it in one hit.

The defense and vitality of the boss rose just as it fell.

Thanks to that, a sudden change in direction was unavoidable as we needed to go back and defeat it, and as a result, Ria was thrown off Yoru.

Yoru was going at a speed that seemed to be faster than the speed of sound, so for her to still be alive after taking a hit that used the strength of her entire body weight, she was quite tough.

It was like, she had the same vitality as the aforementioned black monsters that were found in the kitchen.

TN: if anyone remembers, he had mentioned the cockroach in one of the earliest chapters.

The seventieth floor was like that, so a strong monster would surely appear on the eightieth floor.

The moment the door opened, I invoked myShadow Magicand used the shadows within the room.

I immediately moved to attack.

Shadow Magic.

!? Wait! Master-dono!!

Yoru noticed something, but I had already released myShadow Magicand couldnt retract it when I heard Yorus voice.

It pierced into the monster in the middle of the room that looked like a shark with wings and limbs growing out of it.

whaa!?

I had thought that myShadow Magichad accurately pierced the monster right in the chest, but just as it touched the monsters body, it disappeared.

It cant be, does this guy have a magic nullification type skill?

When I muttered this, Yoru answered me with great difficulty.

That guys name is Poseidon. It manipulates water and earth and as Master-dono said, he has a magic nullification type ability.

Uwaah.

Even though Yorus name was just Black Cat, this guy was Poseidon, huh.

Moreover, wasnt Poseidon the name of a god.

Even if I was mistaken, it shouldnt be a monster with a shark head that was brimming with ominous magic.

Or rather, manipulating water, normally, this guy should be a land monster!

Im not good with sharks. When I was little, I experienced a terrifying encounter with a shark at an amusement park attraction.

Moreover, I was afraid of the dark.

If it were during midday, I would be able to approximate which direction it could come from, but when it suddenly appeared right next to me in a dimly lit placeI was slightly traumatized.

Even though, my mother had a weak body, she wanted to go on it no matter what, so I had Yui ride in my stead in exchange for a stuffed animal that she wanted.

And for some reason, father and Yui were happily playing with the shark masks at the gift shop.

That was the first and the last family excursion.

Since then, Ive been afraid of the ocean, much less sharks, it cant be helped.

Im fine if its shallow, but if the waters deep and I cant see the bottom, I would feel chills running down my spine. Even a mere picture of the ocean was enough to trigger this uneasy feeling.

We had traveled from the elven territory to the beastmen territory on a ship, but to tell you the truth, my thoughts were a mess and I was frightened.

I had persevered in front of Amelia, but I could not stop the cold sweat, and my hands were trembling a little as well.

Even if the monster in front of me was a land animal, the head was that of a shark.

Moreover, theShadow Magic, my last ray of hope, could not be used.

In other words, we had to attack it directly.

We needed to get closer to it.

I see. However, Master-dono, if we cant defeat this guy, rescuing Miss Amelia would be a dream within a dream. Even now, Aulum Trace may be getting further and further away.

I got it.

My back was drenched in cold sweat.

However, this was for Amelias sake.

Sorry, but past trauma, a shark or two, none of that matters right now.

I readied Yatonokami that had turned into two daggers when I had Kurou repair it.

Gugyaaaaaaa!!

The shark head charged at us as it made a strange sound.

When it opened its mouth, many neat rows of sharp teeth could be seen.

If I was bitten by that, as expected, it would hurt, even for me.

No, this was not the time to be thinking about the pain.

I grasped the daggers tightly.

fuu!

I could not afford to lose.

I jumped onto its hand that it swung down to catch me, and ran up the shark heads body.

As I ran, I easily avoided the water blade magic that it conjured to attack me with and swung Yatonokami downwards.
