Butcher Demon

Chapter 228

Chapter 228

Joyce’s hips was gave out, so the lucky bunny helped her by lending her a shoulder.

With the ladies in the lead, we made our way through the underground haven.

I was wearing suitable skin. I already had a large supply of faces in my inventory. So I can wear as many skins as I wanted.

We avoided using the elevator.

We went down the stairs and passed through the VIP entrance. We had to use Joyce’s face scan. I was wary that she might making a fuss there, but she didn’t. She is not a soldier, and her own self is the most important thing to her.

Eventually, the corridor became deserted, and Joyce stopped in front of a room.

She took out a normal key from her side bag, which is rare nowadays, and opened the lock.

Joyce entered the room.

Inside was a large living room, simple but modern. A luxurious room for a rich person.

Joyce collapsed and sat down on the sofa.

“Well. Now what are we dealing with here?”

I asked, and Joyce answered indifferently.

“–Dominic takes people who have been sold and turns them into test subjects for new drugs here. He also tries out other devices that I don’t understand.”

“Devices?”

“Yes. There were all kinds of things, but he was especially experimenting a lot with a device that looked like a ring. It was so awful, they never worked, all the subjects either went crazy or melted into mush.”

“What’s that?”

“There. He tested new weapons like that knife overthere on the shelf.”

I followed Joyce’s line of sight and saw what she called a knife on the shelf.

“Hmm?”

A black knife?….blade?

“Is this even a weapon?”

“Well….he said it has some alien technology in it. It can cut just about anything. I only seen it once. Apparently it’s can’t be used for very long but it’s rechargeable. I heard that the original alien weapon was powered by magic.”

“Alien technology, huh?”

Abigail also mentioned that they had been reverse engineering alien technology at the Central. It wouldn’t be surprising if they were doing something similar at 88.

?Hey, Jibodan.?

Ferris’s eyes darted around.

?You said they had one of us here, where is it??

That reminds me.

So I ask about the alien captives, Joyce looked terribly frightened.

“T-that room over there …….”

I put what looked like a black knife back in its place and stood in front of the door she pointed to. It was a thick iron sliding door.

As I put my hand on the door, Joyce instantly began to scream.

“it’s not me! It’s Dominic! I do not have a hand on that one! If you’re going to hold a grudge, hold it against Dominic, please!!”

She repeatedly excused herself, even though I didn’t ask her.

Suspicious, I pulled the door open.

*squkk*

The room was pitch black.

A ray of light shines through the gap. The faint light reveals a figure out of the darkness.

“Whoa.”

In the back, there was a female alien chained up.

She was naked, with noticeable scars all over her body. One of her eyes was destroyed, left motionless as she stared blankly into the void with the one eye that remained. She probably had two horns, but both had been cut off and their cross-sections were visible. Her tits are average.

?That’s terrible.?

Tiriel tried to get inside, but I stopped her with my hand.

–Something didn’t feel right.

“Look, I did tell you where the aliens are, so you don’t have to kill me anymore. right? Gevaudan-sama, I want to be your pet so, please spare me…….”

Joyce clutches at my apron.

“Why did you think that if you told me where the aliens are, I will let you live?”

I didn’t tell her that.

“Because didn’t Gevaudan-sama go around killing 88 human to rescue that captured alien?”

“Go on.”

I nudge her to continue, and Joyce continues to list recent incidents.

–Apparently, she thought that the purpose of my activities was to rescue this female alien. And that is why I was attacking all the influential people.

Come to think of it, I had not yet revealed my identity or purpose to her. I didn’t expect a mere gang leader to be so informed. I planed to just eat her at first.

“—-Hmm?”

Suddenly, I realized that among the missing person cases she raised, there was a mix of cases in that I had no involvement in.

Chief researcher Maria of November and Major Rimpac of the Pharmaceutical Department, What are you talking about? I didn’t do it.

“Whelcome back, Mashter”

My thoughts are interrupted by a voice.

The voice belonged to the bound female alien.

“That alien, is she speaking human language?”

“Dominic taught it to her for fun……. it’s not me!!”

Dominic, you’re one hell of a dangerous guy.

“That’ s very ballsy. Taming aliens is like risking your life.”

“I don’t know how, but Dominic seems very confident in that area. He said something about not being scared when facing the aliens. I thought he was just being stubborn at first. And when he was holding me, I can feel that he was a little different from ordinary men. Like, his muscles feel unusually hard …… like I’m being hugged by a steel frame.”

“By the way, how did you feel when you were in my embrace?”

“It was like being hugged by a monster…….”

“You are exactly right ………… do you like monster sex?”

“I like it!! so please fuck me more!! you can take me back to your nest!! I will serve you with all my heart!! you can use me as much as you want all day!!”

That’s a hell of a survival instinct.

?Hey, Jibodan. Can I start helping her now??

Ferris asked. I thought she might be angry, but she didn’t seem too upset.

Well, It seems the alien side treats humanity in a similar way. They won’t put themself in the victim’s position and let them say it themself, and this is considered a war zone. She seems to be aware of that How admirable for such a young age.

?I suppose so—-?

Little hesitate. I pushed Ferris and the others behind and hid them behind me.

?–Would you girls mind stepping back for a minute??

Then, I stepped into the room instead.

–I knew I should be very careful, and it paid off.

A high-pitched roar of a blade emerges from the blind spot.

It must be that knife. I caught it out of the corner of my eye, looking at the blunt edge of the blade.

I reached out to intercept its trajectory.

Normally, I just would have caught the blade in the palm of my hand and crushed it.

But I had a feeling that there was a terrible power hidden in the short, slightly glowing blade.

I think it was a soldier’s sixth sense, or intuition, or whatever you want to call it.

I withdrew my hand that was about to grab it.

I turned my head back to avoid the knife.

I can clearly see the light trail that grazed my chest.

After the deafening high-frequency sound dissipated, a pain spread through my chest.

My hunch feeling turned into a certainty.

My apron had been cleanly sliced open.

My butcher’s apron, which has the durability to withstand even rockets.

–I don’t know what that blade was, but it is dangerous.

I dodged a series of knives, all missing just by a hair.

The aim was precise. Everything was aimed at my vital point, so it was easy to evade.

Eventually, the barrage of attacks stopped, and the attacker stopped moving.

The knife was held by a dark-skinned man. His head was covered with a blindfold, so I was unable to see his face.

It seemed that he had been hiding in this room, waiting in ambush with a surprise attack.

Next, I stepped in.

I swung my claw out, but it missed.

The attacker is quick.

After a while of exchanging knives and claws, I grabbed one of the attacker’s arms.

Then, the attacker quickly threw the knife in his hand up, then grab the falling knife with his other hand and thrusting it out.

I brushed it off with my fingernail and delivered a front kick.

By that time, the attacker had already backed away and retreated to the back of the room.

His movement halted for a moment. Aiming for that exact instant, I swung my extended with both hands.

I thought I had got him, but all I saw was an X-shaped claw mark on the wall of the room. He dodged it.

Once again, I took my distance and faced my attacker.

–The attacker was incredibly skilled.

And he’s used to fighting aliens.

These are not the moves that are typically used when fighting a human. Keep the distance, play with it, and keep aiming for the decisive blow. This is the only melee tactic that has a chance to win when facing monstrous aliens, such as the Butcher.

Although I has human skin on my face. The vital points they are aiming for are too precise, and Butcher has very different physiques from a human.

–So I am sure.

He knows I’m a butcher.

is still in effect. I’m very sure of it.

He can see me?

That doesn’t look like night vision goggles either….

What the hell is this guy?

Many thoughts going through my head, but I didn’t have time to think about them right now.

Slowly, I moved my feet and measured the distance in this small room.

And suddenly, as if the attacker had tired of it, he lunged toward me

A reckless move. Surely he wasn’t trying to kill himself?

Alarmed by the blow, I backed away.

Then, as if waiting for me, the attacker slips past me and leaps into the living room. I was tricked!

The attacker used his momentum to grab the black knife that was on the shelf, and ran behind the lucky bunny who happened to be standing nearby.

“Ah!”

The knife thrust out from her chest as her tiny voice rang out.

Drops of blood trickled down the blade that growing with blue-white light.

The strength drained from Bunny’s knees and she crumpled to the floor.

The high-frequency sound tickling the eardrums is deafening.

The sound is similar to the Mosquito noise.

–Something rises up in me, a wave of anger.

A burning rage from the pit of my stomach.

I am now being stimulated by a long-forgotten desire for vengeance.

I can’t believe that I’m feeling this, even though I had nothing to do with the death of this stranger.

I followed the man back to the living room.

The attacker reappeared from behind the fallen bunny and pulled a gun from his waistband. It was a revolver.

“W-Wait!! I’m hu—-.”

The revolver’s muzzle erupted with fire.

A single shot to the forehead.

Joyce’s head knock back and she fell to the sofa.

Several more shots. The attacker pulled the trigger on Ferris, but Tiriel reacted.

?Look out!!?

When she waved her staff, the sound of a rattle echoed through the room, and the bullet landed in the opposite direction. It was the bullet-proof barrier.

In turn, Ferris steps forward.

“—-Shhh!!”

With a gust of wind, Ferris unleashed a flying kick that pierced the attacker’s stomach.

Unfortunately, it was blocked, but it had enough impact force to lift the attacker’s large body off the ground.

The black-clad attacker was knocked off his feet and fell back.

Without a moment’s pause, Ferris charged forward and charged after the attacker.

The attacker fought back, and the two continued to engage in close-quarters combat.
