Dungeon Exploration with Absolute Accuracy ~ Level Up by Shooting Arrows from a Safe Zone ~ - Chapter 81

Her Identity

“You’re a demo!”

A bat-like wing suddenly appeared on her back, and then, Rina was gone.

Instead, Rina is in front of me, looking like a demon worthy of its name.

Black and disastrous horns sprouted from Rina’s head, and Rina’s beautiful, clear blue eyes were dyed crimson like blood.

Not only that but combined with the clothes she was wearing, she looked like a real demon.

“Ah, yes. I’m manifesting by borrowing Rina’s body.”

The demon in front of me said this as if answering my question. And her mouth twisted into a grin.

“Huh. …… I see.”

After taking a breath, I let my thoughts run through my mind, trying not to let my guard down.

This is probably not a summoned “monster”.

On the contrary, she is probably not even a “human being”.

I got this impression when the self-proclaimed demon borrowing Rina’s body showed some changes, such as wings and horns. And I remember such a sign.

“……[Wrath] Do you know this skill?”

[Wrath] That is the skill that Tagaya, who I hate to even remember, suddenly started screaming as if he were crazy and transformed.

This guy’s presence is very similar to Tagaya’s at that time.

“…… Oh, dear. I wonder how you know that power? But I know it well. So? What about it?”

I ask, and this time he looks genuinely surprised.

I knew it. I guess I was right.

I wish I hadn’t been.

“You …… called yourself a demon, but is the owner of this skill called Wrath also a demon like you?”

When I said that, the demon in the form of Rina looked surprised for a moment, but quickly returned to its original ample smile.

“Fufu. As expected of you, you’ll understand. That’s right. That’s right! The power of wrath belongs to the Seven Demon Generals, the “General of Wrath”, just like me, the “General of Greed”.”

That’s what it seems to be.

The demon, still in her Rina form, turns to me with a bewitching smile that even I, who know what’s inside, can’t help but gawk at for a moment.

“Well, I don’t think you can win no matter how hard you try. But don’t worry. It’s not that I’m going to take you and eat you.

I’m just interested in this girl’s power.

“This power of hers? ……You don’t mean ……?

Yes, that’s right. This girl’s power is to see the future, you know? I want that power. That’s why I want her.”

Saying this, the demon in the form of Rina smiles.

“……Well, I understand your point. But I can’t give in to that request.”

I replied, growing wary.

“Oh, why not? Like I said before, I don’t take food.”

“Then when are you getting out of Rina’s body?”

Yes. If I give in to her request, Rina will be in danger.

In the first place, we don’t even know what the demon is thinking, even more so if it wants to take away Rina’s power.

“……”

“Can’t you answer me?”

I ask, and the demon falls silent without saying anything.

“I can’t give you Rina. Even if it’s the devil I’m dealing with.”

“…… I can’t help it. I didn’t want to do anything too rough, but ……”

“Ah!”

At that moment, the demon’s atmosphere changed.

An intimidating feeling came over my entire body.

“Huh… I was thinking of doing it peacefully. If you’re going to get in the way of my feelings of wanting her, then I guess I’ll have to make you look at me a little painfully?”

The demon snapped her fingers as she muttered this, and suddenly something like a black mist that should have disappeared on the ground appeared.

“This is …… from earlier.”

“Hmmm. It looks like you know what this is.”

Behind the demon with a proud face, the black fog that appeared gathered and began to move like a living creature.

I had seen that creature before. Or rather, it was a monster I had fought in this dungeon many times.

“Is this guy …… devil bat ……?”

“Correct♪”

The demon, who called herself the General of Greed, answered happily.

But the Devil Bat that appeared didn’t respond to [Enemy Search], and I couldn’t feel any sign of it.

This is.

“This is the same devil bat that killed the snipers and others…….”

“Phew. You noticed.”

I knew it.

The devil bat that just came out is the same one that mummified the snipers.

And, perhaps, it’s been erased by this demon’s power.

“I created this with my magic. Isn’t it amazing?”

When the demon said that as if to brag about herself, she smiled fearlessly again.
