A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

Fire, everything you see is fire...

The corpses of villagers everywhere were unbearable to look at.

When Edmond finally ran back to Sopa Collar exhausted, all he saw was this scene.

Without thinking, Edmond headed straight for the lord's longhouse.

Fortunately, there is no fire here yet.

Just as Edmond was about to go in and check on his family's safety, he saw the door being kicked open with a bang.

Several people dressed as soldiers that I had seen before walked out of the house.

The leader was the officer who asked for directions.

As soon as they went out, they saw Edmond standing at the door.

"Boy, it's you again, and you're not dead yet?" the officer said.

Then he looked at him carefully.

"Ha, I see, it turns out you are the lord's son."

The officer's expression suddenly became cheerful.

"What are you doing in my house!" Edmond felt that the atmosphere was getting more and more uncomfortable and shouted at several people.

"What are you doing? Hahahaha! Brothers, what is he asking us for?"

A soldier next to him helped: "Boy, if you want to know, just go in and take a look."

Then he made way.

Edmond's eyes were dull, and he slowly walked into the room under the looks of several soldiers looking at him in amusement.

Why is this scene so similar?

Ah...it turns out that I had already experienced it in my previous life...

The house was full of bloodstains and mutilated...

vomit!

Edmond couldn't take it anymore and fell to his knees and vomited.

Ignoring the jeers of the beasts behind him, Edmond suppressed his nausea and climbed up to the second floor, almost in a crawling manner.

At least... at least it must be... painless...

Unfortunately, reality is destined to hit him head-on again.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!"

The shrill screams pierced the night sky...

Seeing that the boy didn't come down for a long time, the officer at the door said: "It's not too exciting, it's scary to death."

Then he pointed at a soldier and said, "You, go up and see what a good thing you have done."

Then the soldier reluctantly entered the house.

"Oh, by the way, remember to clean up and give him as much pleasure as possible."

"The general is really naughty. He asked us to dress up as regular soldiers and play war games with him?"

"That is to say, the interests of these big shots are unique, but they are causing suffering for those of us who are responsible for the aftermath."

"Stop saying a few words, and quickly confirm that there are no survivors, then burn this place to the ground and leave."

"Brother, it's been so long, why is there still no movement from above?"

"It's not like he's tinkering with his disgusting things again..."

While several people were discussing, a black figure jumped out from the window upstairs, dragging something in his hand.

It's a head, connected to the entire spine...

"What kind of monster are you?" The mercenary who looked like an officer pulled out his sword and slashed at the black shadow.

The long sword passed through the black shadow's body without causing any damage.

But the black shadow's mouth suddenly opened, and he swallowed the person in front of him whole in one mouthful.

"Weird, monster!"

The remaining mercenaries were frightened by the unknown monster and fled in all directions.

But everything was in vain. Several tentacles emerged from the black shadow's body and headed in the direction where the people fled. Not long after, they returned to the original place with the impaled people.

After a burst of sounds of broken bones and swallowing, the world became quiet, and only the crackling sound of the blazing flames of the village in the distance could be heard.

Shadow returned to the second floor and looked at Edmond who had fainted on the ground.

"This is the last time I save you. From now on, whether you live or die has nothing to do with me."

After saying that, flames began to ignite at Shadow's feet and spread around.

Then he grabbed Edmond and left the longhouse.

......

When he woke up again, Edmond returned to the resting place where he was attacked before.

He was still on his way to the royal capital.

It was as if what I had experienced before was a dream.

If only that were the case...

Did the shadow save him?

Yes, the conditions for "revenge" have been met...

revenge?

Yes, revenge.

Who to seek revenge from?

Edmond thought of the general he had seen leading the army.

Everything has a chance after becoming a court mage.

Ah!

At this moment, Edmond was completely insane, and he didn't even know what he was thinking.

In short, after a confusing journey, Edmond arrived in Melbourne in ragged clothes.

Walking aimlessly on the bustling streets of the royal capital, Edmond didn't feel the slightest bit of joy in his heart.

What am I here to do?

Oh, yes, you need to report to the palace first and become a court mage...

"Where does a beggar come from and a court mage? Get out of here."

"Ah? Do you really have proof? Okay, okay, let's go in."

"Sopa Territory? Oh, that's what I'm talking about. I heard that they were robbed by bandits. There were hundreds of people in the entire Baron Territory, but no one survived. I heard that the four members of the Baron's family died in terrible circumstances... ..Ouch, I can’t say it anymore, or I’ll get scolded. Go in if you feel like it, and remember to change your clothes first.”

"Hello, my name is Lysa, Chief Court Mage. Welcome to join us."

"That one, that's General Turhe. He became a general at a young age. I heard that some time ago he led people to wipe out the bandits who looted the Sopa Territory. Huh? Why do you look so ugly?"

"Sorry, although I sympathize with you, General Turhe's power is not something you and I can shake. The only thing I can do for you is to cover up your existence and prevent him from knowing."

There is no way to redress the injustice.

Everything was lost, even the shadow never appeared again.

The light in young Edmund's eyes lost, and he began to become indifferent to everything, doing two-point and one-line work every day, trying to numb himself.

On a certain day, Edmund walked out of the palace by some strange coincidence and returned to the bustling streets of Melbourne.

For some reason, I stopped in front of a corner coffee shop in the center of the city.

"guest?"

"Guest? Do you need anything?"

Looking at Edmond standing in front of the store, staring motionlessly at the cakes on the counter, the clerk repeatedly asked him what he needed.

Edmund stretched out his hand and pointed tremblingly at the cake on the counter.

"You want this one, right? Guest, you are really discerning. This is the best cake in the capital. Only thirty-six pieces are available every day."

"Should I use it in the store, or should I take it away?"

"take away."

......

The cream on the cake looked as bright as the sun.

The smell of milk is so rich and attractive, and the texture in your mouth is so soft and delicious.

It really deserves the name of quantity.

what......

Just why?

Shouldn't cake be sweet?

Why...why can I only taste the bitterness of tears?
