I'm not that kind of orc

The guy was still unresponsive, his eyes were empty, and he was muttering words, as if he didn't feel pain.

Daisy became impatient, she simply pulled out the dagger and shook it in front of him, then turned her wrist and aimed the blade at his neck, and stabbed him.

At the last moment, Daisy stopped her movements in time, but the tip of the dagger had already touched the opponent's neck, the sharp blade pierced the skin, and a drop of blood flowed down the neck.

Even so, this guy still has no intention of dodging. It seems that their state may not be pretending.

In the end, Daisy simply gave up on the script, turned her head in a daze, and exchanged a glance with me: "Hey, what's going on? If I don't see these two for a day, I will become an idiot for no reason."

I also stopped acting, walked forward, reached out and picked up an elf sinner and shook him. The other party showed no sign of struggling, just like a dead fish.

Really weird, did someone do something to them?

Just when I was considering whether to take them back, the elf sinner who I was holding by the collar suddenly stopped talking to himself, and twitched like an epileptic seizure.

I waved my hand vigilantly and threw this guy out, only to see that he fell to the floor, still twitching unceasingly, but he slowly got up from the ground with the help of his twitching limbs.

Then, we saw the skins of these two elf sinners split open without warning, and then gradually fell off, revealing the wet and slippery blue skin under the skin layer, and the octopus-like tentacles broke the skin from their chins like beards Growing out, their bodies are also rapidly swollen, as if something is about to break out of their cocoons.

Seeing this scene, Daisy gasped suddenly: "No way!?"

"Huh? What do you know?" I turned to ask her, only to see her take a step back in the direction of the door with a look of horror on her face.

"It's the mind flayer..." she murmured.

"Mind flayer? What the hell?" I didn't understand.

"I won't accompany you! Farewell!" She turned her head and fled outside.

"Hey!" I quickly chased after him, "Why are you running all of a sudden?"

"You still don't understand, you idiot? Someone implanted the larvae of mind flayers into the bodies of those two elves. If you stay here, you will die, okay?" She ran fast in front of me.

"Please explain to me what a 'mind flayer' is," I yelled at her.

At this moment, the hunter's lodge behind us exploded, sending fragments of planks flying in all directions.

Two humanoid monsters with octopus-like faces chased after us in a floating manner.

What kind of monster is this?

"It's the two ends at the back. The mind flayer is a dangerous monster that lives underground. It survives by devouring the brains of other creatures. They will use this way to obtain wisdom and spiritual power. The mind flayer develops from a larva to a human form. Adults need to parasitize and invade the body of intelligent creatures, just like they did!" she replied impatiently.

"A monster in the ground? How did it appear here?" I frowned.

"Actually, the civilization of mind flayers was wiped out by dark elves who migrated underground a long time ago. The existing mind flayers are basically bred by dark elves!"

"Do you keep this as a pet? The taste is too weird." I looked back, and the two suspended monsters didn't have any hair on their bodies, and their slimy body surface was covered with mucus, which looked disgusting.

"Who would keep that kind of thing as a pet? It's an assassination tool, idiot!" Daisy turned her head and scolded angrily, "Put the cursed mind flayer hatchlings into the target's body, and the mind flayer hatchlings will put The brains of the prey are eaten and developed into adults. Then the adults will be controlled by the spell caster to hunt and kill more targets. It is a very efficient assassination method... But breeding mind flayer larvae is illegal in Netreland .”

"That means these two guys are..." I vaguely wanted to understand.

"Don't think about it, it must be the little bitch who wanted to assassinate me yesterday! Bastard, you really did everything to kill me!" Daisy shouted angrily.

All of a sudden, the assassin I met yesterday—a certain sister of Daisy probably found Daisy's trace at least one day earlier and started monitoring her, so not only did she catch her drunk She also learned that she would meet these elf sinners the next day.

So after the assassination failed last night, he changed his strategy, arrived at the meeting place one step earlier to ambush the two unlucky ones, implanted the larvae of the mind flayer into the body of the elf sinner, and waited for Daisy to come in and meet the two dangerous men. The monsters meet each other.

...Suddenly I feel a little sympathetic to these two elf sinners, they are somehow involved in the political struggle of the dark elves, and even their bodies are used as a seedbed for monsters.

"Those two monsters fly very fast, they obviously don't have wings." I found that the distance between us and those two monsters has not decreased at all.

"They use psychic energy to perform levitation to move. These monsters have high spiritual power, and they can also control psychic energy to perform mental attacks." Daisy replied.

"It's hard to get rid of them after running like this, why don't you go back and kill them." I suggested to Daisy.

Although they look very strange and their abilities are also very strange, but from the feeling, these two monsters are not much stronger than those I have dealt with before, and there should be a chance of winning if they give it a go.

But Daisy obviously didn't think so.

"Who wants to take this risk! You can play with them, as long as I can run faster than you!!" Daisy yelled while speeding up, and jumped onto the treetop.

Is this girl out of fright?Forgot that I could force her to stay and fight with me just by giving an order.

Forget it, forcing this kind of guy who has no fighting spirit to stay and help in the battle is not of much use, so let's rely on ourselves.

After making up my mind, I immediately stopped and turned around, pulled the tomahawk from my back, and prepared to face those two disgusting monsters.

However, just as I was waiting for the two monsters to enter my attack range, the mind flayer that was originally floating towards me in a straight line suddenly deviated from the original route one by one to the left and one to the right. Minus, without even looking at me, he bypassed me, and then... went straight to Daisy's direction and chased after her.

I froze for a moment, then turned my head to look.

"Why are they all coming towards me!?" Daisy, who was being targeted, screamed.

Speaking of which, Daisy's sister was the one who controlled the Mind Flayer in arranging this murderous situation, and Daisy was indeed her only target.

I was left hanging here, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

Me, can I go back?

A good assassin is always bloodless (3)

The two mind flayers ignoring gravity and flying fast, and Daisy, who was being chased by them, went away in the blink of an eye.

Oh, what a hassle...

I finally summoned a warg and rode after it.

I chased after the sound for a while, and suddenly heard the sound of metal clashing and clanging. I rode on the beast soul and saw Daisy leaning against a tree with a short sword, angry. Panting, as if driven to a dead end.

I stopped and followed her gaze.

The cloaked woman stood in front of her, holding a short curved scimitar, and the two mind flayers floated on either side of her, one to the left and the other to the right.

It was the female thief who broke into Daisy's house yesterday. I have an impression of her figure and clothes.

"Sister Daisy, you are safe and well. You have been away from home for more than a month, and I think so hard." The female thief smiled strangely, raised her hand and pulled off the veil on her face, "The heir of the Laskin family How can you go to the outside world casually? If something 'accident' happens, it will be a big disaster."

A face of a dark elf that closely resembles Daisy, just as Daisy guessed, it was one of her sisters who tried to assassinate her last night and ran over to arrange the killing.

"Livelu... tsk, it really is you, you little bitch." Daisy spat, "You are the only one who does such lowly things as raising mind flayers, and you are the one who has the most limitless sisters Already."

"Oh my sister, what are you talking about?" The dark elf named Livlu pretended to play with the scimitar in her hand, "I am the most law-abiding, how could I do such a terrible thing?"

Daisy sneered: "Then what do I see floating on both sides of you now? An octopus caught from the sea? Just these two mind flayers alone should be enough for mother to ground you for five years."

"Sister, what you said makes sense, but..." Livlu picked up the scimitar and stuck it to the side of her face, grinning, not hiding her complacency at all, "Who else saw this except you?"

Uh, I saw it... I was left alone and said in my heart.

"Sister, you need to know that witnesses are unreliable if you want to testify, because the dead can't speak." Li Fulu smiled coldly at Daisy, "When traveling outside, I died inexplicably. Under the attack of the mysterious monster, you have no chance to testify against anyone. Of course, this has nothing to do with me. After all, my weapon has never even touched you... Just like my mother taught us, the best assassin , always bloodless."

...Since I want to kill people and silence them, wouldn't it be better for me, who saw the whole process, to run quietly now?

But at this moment, Daisy finally turned her face towards me, and shouted at me with staring eyes: "Hey, what are you doing there? Come and save me! Aren't we companions?"

After falling into a dead end, she seemed to regard me as the last straw.

"...That's not what you said just now." I complained to her with a dark face.

Wasn't it you who shouted "I just want to run faster than you" when I was chased 1 minute ago and then threw me off?

"Tsk tsk, sister, when did you hang out with this kind of dirty and lowly orc? I never knew that you are so good!" Livlu slowly turned her gaze to me, "I just found you yesterday When I saw the two of you going into the grove, I thought you were going to do something shameless secretly, but nothing happened... Could it be that you have already done it already?"

"Fuck you! You're the one who likes this! Your whole family likes this!!" Daisy suddenly jumped up, pointing at Livru with a dagger and scolding, "You think I'm willing to stay with this orc son?"

After listening to her words, I felt a blue vein popping out on my forehead: "Oh, that's it, since you don't like it so much, then I won't bother you sisters to reminisce about the past, goodbye."

As I said that, I turned the beast soul's head and made a gesture to leave.

Daisy panicked when she saw this: "Hey, you, you really left! I, I was wrong, can't you? Hey, hey, do you really want to watch me get killed?"

"Hmph, none of you can get away today." Livru suddenly lowered her voice, narrowed her eyes, and stared at me like a knife, "You lowly orc, I haven't told you why you hurt me. Forget it! It caused me to bleed... Let me tell you, even if you kneel in front of me today, crawl at my feet, lick my boots, and cry and beg me for mercy, I will not forgive you!"

"Uh, I don't know how to do any of these things." I replied with a dark face, "I don't need you to forgive me."

"Hmph, then die!" She waved her hand, and a mind flayer floated towards me at an extremely fast speed, closing the distance with me.

"Get out of the way! You will be controlled by it!" Daisy shouted to me with a serious expression on her face.

"Hmph, it's late!" Lifru snapped her fingers.

At the same time, the green eyes of the mind flayer suddenly flickered, and I suddenly felt a muffled sound coming from the depths of my brain, and a slight dizziness emerged for a moment—but that was all.

This octopus face seems to have cast some kind of mental attack, but it doesn't seem to have much effect on me.

To be honest, because the effect was too weak, I was seriously on guard against the attack, and I didn't even react for a moment, so I blinked blankly.

And this reaction seemed to them to be a trick.

"Ah..." Daisy opened her eyes wide, showing a look of despair.

On the other hand, Livlu laughed arrogantly, with a look of winning: "These two mind flayers are mutants that I spent a lot of money to buy the brains of hundreds of death row prisoners. The mind flayer is several times stronger. It is impossible to resist with the mental power of a mere orc! Taste the mind blast of the mind flayer! Get into a panic and become my slave!!"

Although she said it seemed very powerful, I really didn't feel anything special.

I actually have a clue about this - I was once instilled with all my soul power by Azak, and I don't think that such an octopus-faced monster alone can cause any decent spiritual damage to me.

I immediately controlled the beast soul to rush towards the mind flayer, and then raised my ax and slashed at the monster's head, chopping it down immediately.

The suspended mind flayer was headshot by an axe, and immediately fell to the ground, dying beyond death.

"Huh?" The smile on Livru's face froze.

"It's disgusting!" I shook the battle ax in my hand. The blood of this monster is blue, and the brain is translucent. The texture is like sticky jelly. These messy things stick to the blade of the axe. How do you look at it? How uncomfortable.

Then, I shifted my gaze to the disbelieving Livru, and the other mind flayer hovering beside her: "Well, there's only one left."

A good assassin is always bloodless (4)

"W-why... it doesn't work?" Seeing that the mind flayer she was manipulating was killed in an instant, Livru's eyes widened and she muttered to herself.

"It seems that the owner of the pet shop who sold this thing to you gave you a fake one, go and return it." I locked my eyes on her, and slowly approached her on the beast soul, "Although there are only corpses left .”

"Haha, great job! I knew you could do it, get rid of that little bitch!!" Daisy clapped her hands and applauded when the situation was reversed.

"Are you kidding me!?" Livru yelled and raised her hand, another mind flayer was blocked in front of her under her control, bright electric arcs began to crackle and flicker around the mind flayer.

Lightning-type magic... This kind of monster can actually cast spells with its powerful spiritual power.

The arc around the mind flayer was getting brighter and brighter, and it was about to finish casting. I raised the pitch-black battle ax in my hand, directly summoned the Spear of Dark Curse, aimed at the mind flayer and projected it.

The power and incantations on the pitch-black battle ax all come from the magic sword called Desolation Contract, which can be activated immediately as long as it is injected with magic power, and the casting speed is much faster than that of a mage chanting incantations silently.The Spear of the Curse pierced through the mind flayer's body in the blink of an eye, and the pain immediately tore the mind flayer's consciousness, interrupting its spellcasting.
