Other World Assassin Life of a Man who was a Shut-in

hours after lunch in the cave.

Me and Thing are walking into the back of the woods looking for Grossrabbits.

One thing in that cave allowed me to hear what Singh meant. I don't know if it's because of that, but I feel like Thing's attitude towards me has started to change since then.

Until then, whatever the tone, it feels like Thing's attitude has only softened a little because he couldn't wipe away his extra impression somewhere. To put it plainly, I began to behave like a child year after year.

That in itself is a great pleasure for me. Kids still have the best childish attitude. I was happy at first because I thought so, but now I regret it only a little bit. This is what caused it......

"Hey hey brother, I'm listening!? I knew you thought Mr. Minaris was special among S-rank adventurers! That strength is amazing too, but I think it's really amazing that I've been an S-rank adventurer for years!

"Right. I've met Mr. Minaris before, but he was amazing."

So far, Mr. Minaris is the only person I haven't worked with using an appraisal.

I think I'm pretty strong now myself, but still, Mr. Minaris' strength can be completely bottomless. He's my immediate goal.

And when I told him I'd met Mr. Minaris,

Right next to him, Singh starts to talk happily with his eyes shining.

"Wow, I wish I'd met Mr. Minaris before. Your brother... I wish I could actually meet Mr. Minaris one day and tell him about all the adventures and stuff! So, next up, I'm talking about the S-rank adventurer, Mr. Lebnand!

Who is Levenant? I don't know who he is.

As you can see by listening so far, Thing was an adventurer geek.

A few hours after leaving the cave, I am plunged into listening to Singh's adventurer boast.

By the way, this is the third time I've talked about Mr. Minaris just now......

"Sure, Mr. Lebnand is totally younger than Mr. Minaris, but I think that speed is amazing. Speed alone makes me think you're one of the top adventurers. Are you listening to me, brother?

Thing asks me a question to peek into my expression from below.

Honestly, I'm tired of Singh's adventurers bragging about it, but I can't possibly say that when I look at Singh's pleasant expression when he's talking to me.

"... oh, I'm fine because I'm listening, Singh"

"That would have been great! So, now I'm talking about Mr. Krew, who was an S-rank adventurer, and his swordsmanship is really amazing, and it's like he's looking at the future..."

After that, Thing's adventurer pride went on,

When a few dozen more minutes had passed, I finally got a story of my interest out of Thing's mouth.

"But I guess the most famous adventurer is that guy. You're the one who defeated the Demon King!

... Mm-hmm. Demon King?

When I was in Japan, I used to do cartoons and stuff that came out of demon kings.

After all, there is a demon king in this world. You're just a little interested.

"Thing, can you tell me about the Demon King?

When I asked him about the Demon King, Singh said with a slightly unexpected look.

"My brother doesn't know about the Demon King. That's unusual.

Well no, if that's the case, I'll tell you about the Demon King!!

Thus began the explanation about the Demon King by Thing.

"First of all, the Demon King is said to exist hundreds of years ago."

Well, was there a demon king hundreds of years ago?

Did you see in the book what Singh knows about the Demon King?

If that's what's left of it, I'd like to see it sometime.

"It seemed like a time when the demons were still moving vibrantly. The Demon King has led such demons and demons to attack many villages and cities."

Hmm, the Demon King is the first to have a Demon Nation anyway.

There are still a lot of things in this world that I don't seem to know.

"So when the Demon King finally attacked us all the way to this continent, only one adventurer stood up to the Demon King!!

Well, from what I've heard, a demon king must be quite powerful.

There are amazing people who would stand up to that demon king by themselves.

I got a little interested in the adventurer, so I decided to ask him a question.

"Thing, can I ask the name of that adventurer?

"Fine, the adventurer's name is Mr. Kroda."

It was someone I knew. Awwwwwwwwww!!

No, wait, wait, maybe someone else with just the same name!

"Hey, Thing, do you have any idea what that Mr. Croda guy looked like?

"Uh, according to the book, it was a dark hair, dark eyes, a very rare appearance."

Yeah, it's definite.

There is no doubt that Mr. Kroda is the one who defeated the demon king that Singh is talking about.

But why did Mr. Croda end up fighting the Demon King?

To protect people?

No, it's not. It's just my idea, but I don't think that's all.

"Thing, do you know why Mr. Croda is supposed to fight the Demon King?

"I don't know that much about it either, but she replied that it was just in the way of what she was trying to do. It wasn't even in the book until it was meant to be."

Mr. Kroda's purpose, perhaps to return to Japan.

Was it the demon king who got in the way of that purpose?

No, I don't see why the Demon King would stand in the way of his purpose at the moment.

Would you like to speak to Mr. Minaris next time?

"Thanks Thing. I know more or less about the Demon King.

So, what happened to the demons and demons that the Demon King was following?

"Well, the demons were exterminated on the spot, and the demons surrendered to their continent when they lost the Demon King."

What, if that story is true, do you mean the demons let them go?

Isn't that a little dangerous? If the demons put up another fight.

When I ask Singh that question.

"I don't think you need to worry about that. It seems that the Demon Clan cannot be used without the presence of the Demon King."

I see, so did the demons surrender at the time the demon king was hit?

Well, then I guess I don't have to worry about it. The Demon King is already dead.

"Well, thanks for everything, Thing."

That's how I gently stroke Thing's head while thanking him.

I looked a little embarrassed when I stroked my head before, but this time it was a full smile.

About an hour after we talked about Thing and the Demon King.

Me and Thing go deep into the woods and eventually reach the demon of purpose.

Right now, me and Thing are hiding in the grass.

And there's an overwhelming giant monster in front of us.

That's the glow slabbits.

You just have the name Rabbits. It's like something else. He is.

Perhaps the size is a good battle with the Cyclops, no, it may be outweighed.

He's got big horns on his head, and he's intimidating enough.

Well, let's just say I try to appraise it. [Appraisal] Activated.

Growth Rabbits LV67

Force 145

Health 123

Fastness 98

Lucky 97.

[skills] None

[Title] None

I see, as Mr. Grace said, it's A-rank strength.

Probably an intermediate strength between Oak King and Golithris.

Strength and strength are equal to oak king and speed is overwhelmingly higher than oak king.

This guy is a pain in the ass. Is salvation as good as not having special skills or something?

Now, the question is whether Thing can defeat this guy.

As far as the status alone is concerned, there seems to be almost no winning eye for Thing.

However, not all wins and losses depend on the difference in status.

Thing has enough sword talent to make up for the difference in status.

Besides, according to information Mr. Zonga told me, Grossrabbits has an injury to his left leg. If Thing can successfully target that injury, there must be plenty of opportunity.

Well, it's Thing I decide where I think a lot.

That's what I think. I look at Thing sitting next to me. Then.

"To, brother..."

Sitting next to me, Singh was shaking his body in small pieces.

Well, did you have this before the stats?

Thing is probably terrified of Grossrabbits.

I speak gently to Shivering Thing next door.

"Thing, are you scared of Gross Rabbits?

To my question, Singh said he was forced to make a smile.

"I'm not scared. Even I'm getting ready..."

"Thing, you seem to be mistaken, but for once, fear is not a bad thing."

"……… What do you mean?

"The fear you're feeling is important to humans. In fact, humans are brittle creatures. A few things can kill me. Fear is absolutely necessary for such a human being. Not to die."

"Well, then, what if I feel fear?"

"If I were in the current Thing position, I would definitely run away."

"That's true, run...... Huh?

You didn't expect me to answer that I was going to run away.

Thing's face is stunned.

Even if you look like that, you can't help it because this is how I feel to be honest.

"Don't look so surprised, Thing. I'm human, too, and I'm afraid to die. Actually, if you meet someone who feels scared, I think it's best to run away."

"Running away is the right answer?

"That's right. So Singh, you don't have to fight this time if you're afraid of Grossrabbits. I'll take care of everything. That solves everything."

When I talk like that, Thing looks down and thinks of something.

And the look on Thing's face, who looked up again, was different from what he had been before.

"No, brother. He's the only one who needs me to take down the Glow Slabits. If I don't, I can't move on. That's what I feel."

The tremor in Thing's body has not stopped yet.

But only the expression feels something different than before.

"Is that your answer?

"Yeah, I'll take him down. Of course, I know your brother can take him down easily. Still, I want to do it. I'm sorry for being so selfish, brother..."

Ha, your brave face is ruined at the end.

I stroked Thing's head slowly.

"If that's your answer, I'll give you my full hand. Thing, all you have to do is look at the glow slabbits. I'll take care of all other trash. Well, I might help a little when it gets dangerous, but give me a break about that, okay?

That's what I said while I stroked Thing's head.

Singh looked up and smiled happily.

"Thank you, brother. I'll definitely take him down."

Thing shows his readiness when he absolutely defeats Grossrabbits.

There was no longer a tremor of fear left in that body.
