Before I realized it, the shield-bearer’s corpse was lying at my feet.
Huh? What… just happened to me?
Tracing my memory back, I recalled myself fighting the shield-bearer with a disturbing amount of delight.
That’s right! Ever since I got that dangerous-sounding title, I felt like I wasn’t myself anymore-
To figure out what had happened to me, I opened the details of the newly acquired title.
━━━━━━━━━━
〘Serial Killer〙
① Title granted to those who have killed ten or more humans.
② Title holder becomes highly sensitive to murderous intent and cannot suppress the urge to kill until the target harboring it is eliminated.
③ During combat against humans, all stats ×1.2.
━━━━━━━━━━
So that was the cause. The bloodlust that had surged through me earlier came from the title’s effect.
It must have reacted to the shield-bearer’s killing intent. Once there was no one left around who harbored murderous intent, the title’s effect likely faded.
“So just like the description says… it’s literally a title that turns you into a murderer, huh.”
Sure, I had fought back against PK hunters who attacked me first, but I never killed for the sake of it.
And yet, I still ended up getting this title — which means the system only counts the fact that I killed someone, not the reason behind it.
“Sigh… well, at least it doesn’t make me attack people indiscriminately. Still, I never found out who those guys really were.”
Oh well. There’s some info about PKs online. Once I get home, I’ll look it up. With such a distinctive look, I should find at least one match.

When I entered the boss room, the glowing orb shone brighter than usual — and out emerged a monster slightly larger than a Vorpal Bunny: the Vorpaltinger.
Unlike the Vorpal Bunny, this one had large, pitch-black wings. It was obvious it could fight in midair.
The Vorpaltinger flapped its wings and zipped around above me at high speed. Then, in the middle of its circling, it turned toward me — and vanished.
“«Water Slash»”
I ducked and dodged the scythe swinging at my neck from behind and countered, slicing it clean in two with the blade of water.

The boss’s corpse dissolved into particles, and a treasure chest appeared. Inside were the boss’s materials — and a pitch-black robe.
