Soul Devourer Chapter 2 Episode 9 — A Battle Between an Inhuman Monster and the Rest

Editor:
His killing intent triggered mine, and my own rising urge for slaughter flooded my vision with bloodlust.

His hostility shifted from rational to feral, and what followed was the clash of two rampaging beasts.

We both surrendered to the urge to kill, sprinting straight towards each other —!

But the moment he took his first step, the devil inside me drove its fist clean through the guide’s skull.

Even though one of their top fighters had been killed instantly, the rest still charged at me, driven only by instinct.

I grabbed a greatsword swung at my neck, snapped the blade in half, and rammed the broken edge into the man’s throat.

A spear thrust aimed at my heart was dodged with a simple twist of my torso, and I smashed my fist into the spearman’s temple.

I picked up the spear he dropped and hurled it with full force at a mage preparing to cast.

I vanished with【Stealth】, slipped under the assassin’s hidden blade, and knocked her away with a spinning kick.

Then I caught the dagger as it spun through the air, and drove it straight into the heart of a brawler who had just thrown a punch at me.

Pulling it out quickly, I threw it into the forehead of another mage before he could finish chanting.

I pierced the gut of a man swinging a longsword, caught the dagger an assassin threw at my back, and returned it into her skull with a flick.

Then I picked up the longsword from the man whose stomach I’d slit, and cut down the remaining low-rank Hunters as they tried to flee.

Roughly a hundred members of the major clan were wiped out in under a dozen seconds — without me needing powerful skills or large-scale annihilation magic.

Blood, armor fragments, and chunks of flesh were scattered across the circular arena. The chaos ended followed by and dominated silence.

♦︎♢♦︎♢♦︎♢♦︎♢♦︎♢

In the center of the slaughtered remains of his subordinates stood a single young man.

Daiki, the clan master, had brought Matsubara here to force him to confess that his solo S-rank Dungeon clear was a lie.

As expected, Matsubara hadn’t admitted anything. Daiki ordered his subordinates to “teach him gently”.

But even though the boy took their attacks without defending, he remained unscathed. Higher-ranked members attacked after being told to forbid skill use, yet nothing changed.

Daiki then ordered them to go all out — even if it meant ripping off limbs — and the moment they got serious…

It ended instantly.

The boy suddenly displayed monstrous physical ability, slaughtering everyone before Daiki could process what was happening.

Could he also have the〘Serial Killer〙title!?

Hunters fought not only monsters but other Hunters. Killing ten people alone granted the title〘Serial Killer〙.

“Alone” meant delivering the finishing blow yourself. In a party, kills weren’t counted for everyone, so surprisingly few Hunters possessed the title.

He had always operated solo. The likelihood he has it is extremely high. I should’ve assumed he had it from the start.

Just as understanding finally caught up, the boy vanished from Daiki’s field of view.

Daiki shot up from his seat and rushed toward the mirror window.

And on the other side, the boy appeared and swung his fist.

The mirror shattered like a dry biscuit.

E/N:

The fatality of punching through a skull is giving me a headache… Pun intended 😂!

Hot damn! Thank you Daiki-tan, for the opportunity to farm experience, stats and skills!

Stay tuned!

It Seems the Convenience Store Clerk Ossan That Got Dragged Into the Teleportation of an Entire Class Will Make Use of the Leftover Skills the Heroes Didn’t Want and Become the Strongest

Editor:
Image
                   Author: Ayase Hiura A middle-aged convenience store clerk gets caught up in a hero summoning and is transported to another world! Yuichi Otogi, a dull 35-year-old single man, gets dragged into what's known as a "class transfer" to another world. While the summoned heroes each receive a cheat skill from the goddess and are reincarnated, Otogi was only caught up in the summoning by accident—so all the cheats were already taken, and he didn’t get one. As a consolation, the goddess forcibly dumps into him a bunch of leftover, discarded skills she had gathered for cheat-skill reference and sends him off to the other world. His stats are low, and his skills seem useless. But the old guy doesn’t give up. Before he knows it, he finds himself surrounded by girls—and even some pretty boys—who, for some reason, are all fond of him. And he doesn’t entirely dislike the attention, either. When he makes full use of those...

Konbini Ossan Volume 1 Chapter 25 – Herb Gathering and Skill Imbuing

Editor:
After dealing with the man, I checked the requests posted at the guild. Requests are broadly divided into two types:   - One is the standard request — These are the ones taken on by a single adventurer or a party, and the job ends once the request is fulfilled.   - The other is called a permanent request — For example, exterminating wolves or gathering medicinal herbs – jobs that are always available and have no limit. These do not require prior acceptance at the counter; simply bringing proof of the monster hunt or collected materials will be enough to process the request as completed. No matter how many times these are fulfilled, permanent requests are never withdrawn. By the time I checked the requests, it was already early afternoon, so the easy jobs had all been taken. Therefore, I didn’t formally accept any request and decided to fulfill a permanent one instead. Among them, the one I aimed for was herb gathering . There were several reasons, but the main one was simple —...

Konbini Ossan Volume 2 Chapter 26 — A Man Named Yuichi Otsugi

Editor:
After Shuri-kun deliciously took my virginity, the two of us returned to the shop and completed various contracts in writing. Arisa looked curiously at Shuri-kun, who seemed a bit worn out. But she likely didn’t suspect that Shuri-kun and I had done the deed. Surely, we hadn’t been found out. Or rather, we must not be found out. If Arisa knew, she might genuinely start to hate me. Living together while being looked at like filth by my own niece… That kind of hell is unbearable even to imagine. And yet— Thinking about it more, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad in the short term? (E/N: You masochist freak Unc! 🤣) Well, let's set irrelevant thoughts aside for now. After signing the contracts with me and promising to formalize them later with official documents from the royal palace, Shuri-kun and Marceline went home. Then the peak business hours came, which Arisa and I handled together, and night eventually fell. There was no one left in the shop. At this time, we rarely get customers. Occ...
