A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

"I" walked into the cave alone.

As soon as I stepped into the darkness, I heard a series of intermittent groans.

"I" couldn't help but stop, as if unwilling to move forward.

"Cough cough!"

I was awakened by a violent cough. Without time to think, I walked quickly into the depths and came to a straw mat.

Lying on the straw mat was an elderly man who was about to die.

Sensing my arrival, the old man opened his eyes with difficulty, and after seeing that it was me, he tried his best to force out a weak smile.

“Come…come…”

"…Well, here I come, Mr. Willy."

"Okay... okay... it's worth it for me to keep my breath..."

The old man stretched out his hand, and “I” also stretched out my hand and held his tightly.

"Thank you for your hard work over the past three years... You have been taking care of me... ahem... an old thing half buried in the ground..."

"This is what I want to do, Mr. Willy, just what I want to do..."

"Hehe... Of course, of course... I felt from the beginning... that you and I, and everyone else here, are different... Ahem! You are not like us. We are here to 'atone' our sins... "

"In the past three years... every night, someone would come to me... to confess... I think... maybe they hoped that I could bring their regrets to the goddess..."

"But how can a sinner like me meet the goddess after death..."

"So...child...can you please listen to the confession of a sinner like me?"

"Ah."

Old Willy smiled with relief, then took a deep breath and told the story he had been hiding for three years.

When he was young, Old Willy was a priest in a small town church. He had always worked diligently and contributed his efforts to all the large and small undertakings in the town, and was quite loved by the townspeople.

In his middle age, Willy accidentally rescued an unconscious woman in the mountains and brought her back to the small town church for treatment.

During the treatment, Willy discovered that the woman was not human. Although she looked like a human, her body temperature was very different from that of ordinary people. What was even more terrifying was that she had two pairs of sharp canine teeth in her mouth...

This was undoubtedly a genuine vampire, one of the most hated enemies of the Church of Holy Light that Willy believed in.

But Willy couldn't just abandon the woman.

Because he was not an extreme believer in Holy Light, and the humans and demons on the continent had maintained peace for nearly an era. He just quietly rescued a vampire... and let her go after her wounds healed... As long as he was careful, nothing should happen...

As time went by, the woman who was suspected to be a vampire woke up. Strangely, she could not organize any words.

As a result, Willy couldn't ask for any information about her.

Willy wrote the questions he wanted to ask on a piece of paper and showed it to the woman, but she didn't know the answers to any of them.

Judging from the woman's performance, she can't even read...

Is it a completely wild vampire?

That's what Willy thought at the time.

In this case......

Willy didn't know what he was thinking at that time, he had selfish motives, he wanted to take this woman in, even though she was a vampire.

Maybe he thought that this woman was a blank slate, and as long as she was well educated, she would be able to integrate smoothly into human society...

Willy began to teach the woman to read and speak, trying to change her cognition and regard herself as a human being.

Strange things happened one after another. The woman could live normally without sucking blood, which made people doubt whether she was the vampire in the impression.

After learning to speak, the woman told Willy about her wild life in the mountains for more than 20 years.

It turned out that the woman had never harmed any living creature and she had always made a living by gathering.

I have no idea what vampires are.

Apart from having the physical characteristics of a vampire, the woman is essentially a human being.

"I named her 'Martha'... so she has some status in the town..."

"When I was fifty... Martha suddenly said she wanted to marry me... ahem..."

Old Willy coughed and continued.

With the blessing of the townspeople, the fifty-year-old Willy married the young and beautiful Martha in the town church...

Willy didn't care whether Martha was a vampire or able to give birth. Perhaps more than ten years of companionship had really changed the relationship between the two in essence.

Just keep Martha's secret hidden, as always.

But the good times did not last long. Less than three years after their marriage, livestock and even people began to disappear frequently in the town.

According to eyewitnesses, it was a "humanoid monster" that appeared at night.

The town was in a panic and the townspeople went to the church to seek Willy's help.

Willy was a little worried. He was worried that his wife might be the "monster". However, for so many years, Martha had not shown any abnormality in her daily routine or diet.

In fact, even Martha, who is a vampire, expressed great fear, because for so many years, she really regarded herself as a human being.

Willy decided to put his worries aside for the time being.

The matter became more and more serious, and eventually people from the church were called in.

People from the church said that they would check every house in the town to see if there were any "monsters" hiding there.

However, due to the trust among colleagues, the people of the church did not pay any attention to Willy and his wife at all. After checking the townspeople, they announced that nothing unusual was found. After leaving a batch of holy water, they hurriedly evacuated the town.

The monster took advantage of the church's departure and started committing crimes the next day.

This time the victim was the mayor's son, and his shrunken body was hung in the center of town, as if to declare its victory.

As a result, the mayor, who had always been indifferent to the matter, could no longer sit still. He began to mobilize the entire town frantically, vowing to catch the monster and avenge his son.

Under the high pressure, the townspeople who were usually willing to turn a blind eye could no longer bear it. They revealed that Martha had suddenly appeared in the town more than ten years ago and listed her as a key suspect.

Although Willy tried his best to exonerate his wife, there were too many suspicious points about Martha, and her abnormal body temperature and two pairs of fangs were gradually discovered.

The "evidence" was irrefutable, and even the highly respected Willy could not argue...

"I know...I've always been a selfish person...a coward."

Old Willy said helplessly.

"That day they broke into...the church..."
