We Are the Monsters!

Vol 1's. Chapter 8's

The Desiring Boy! A Little Village At the Foot of Hell Mountain! (IV)

♤

The dark night and the fire that raged in the countryside made the night quite warm outside, along with the cry of the citizens who were hysterical for fear or also looking for their children.

Me walking in the opposite direction to the citizens who run makes me can feel their helplessness, humans are actually weak people.

But sometimes they can break down their own boundaries because of an invisible impulse, they call it motivation.

Hatred, resentment, hunger, love, or even fear itself.

It sounds unpleasant but the weak human being is sometimes able to become very strong.

They could eventually die at that time.

"Edward! Where are you son?!"

"Easy! There's no time left, now you better save yourself with the others!"

"No! I'm not going with my son!"

Besides all that, there are some men who try to buy time so that other residents can escape.

But they find a stubborn mother, and do not want to leave before she finds her child. It was Edward's mother.

It just so happens that I who is walking towards my destination now have to pass them first, until I get closer to them and their eyes are on me.

'Yep, just ignore it as if they weren't there.'

At least that's what I thought until Edward's mother started running towards me in a limp. It made me a little confused and surprised because after that he begged me, or else he asked for my help.

I don't know if it's because he thinks it's an emergency, or if something has changed as long as I'm in the room.

But at this time Edward's mother started to hold my legs pretty tightly and she was crying hysterically.

"Test! ...I beg ...save my son!"

'Ouch, wait! I can't walk! I am also a monster! The monster!'

"Darguably, I have absolutely no interest in fulfilling that desire of yours. Then don't forget that I'm a monster too."

Hearing my answer, Edward's mother who had looked at me expectantly finally fell down.

It was accompanied by his grasp that began to slowly detach.

After being completely detached, I walked back and passed it. The men who had previously asked Edward's mother to leave were also surprised by my answer.

I could see and feel that they remembered the fact that I was the same monster as the goblins.

When I had passed them all, one of the previous men yelled at me with his trembling voice.

"...L-then... Why are you going in the direction of those goblins being fucking?!"

Hearing that, I answered without looking back.

"Don't I tell you that this village is now mine, you understand what I mean, right?"

That way I-even completely away from them, and began to approach the group of goblins was located.

The closer I got to the goblins, I could see that there were some people and goblins that were killed horribly on the road.

Continuing my steps, I could hear the voices of the other citizens who were still fighting against the goblins.

TRANGS! TRANGS! ZHINGY!

The sound of swords and various weaponry clashing against each other was more and more clearly heard, until I finally reached the battlefield.

You could say, the resistance zone of the residents is near the entrance of the village. Some of the village walls were destroyed and also burned there.

'I don't think they managed to beat back thousands of goblins.'

But after I took a closer look, apparently it was not what I had imagined.

It was very clear that the goblins were playing around with the already exhausted citizens.

'Really too. If you remember the number of goblins where possible.'

Moreover, the citizens only fought with the lower goblins. While the rational goblin there was only watching with a grin on his face.

The lower goblins took turns against the remaining citizens, at first glance this was like torture.

Seeing it made me fall silent and want to see where the residents were at their limits, but that all changed when a familiar little boy appeared out of nowhere.

"The crap!"

""!!!"""

'Oy Edward! Your mother is crying and looking for you know!'

Edward's shout made the war atmosphere silent and silent for a moment, all eyes were on him before finally one of the rational goblins there approached him.

Seeing Edward made the citizens surprised and because of the sudden silence, the residents seemed to start feeling the pain in his body.

'Do I have to go now?'

When I wanted to go take the stage coolly, I saw Edward still standing in front of one of the rational goblins who came to him.

The boy did not tremble at all before the tall monster, and his size was larger than twice that. It made me undo my previous intentions, right now I am interested in what the boy will do next.

"...Edward?! ...Hah, what are you doing, boy?!"

"Really... You should have run off with the others!"

Edward did not even heed the words of the dying citizens and just stared at the big goblin in front of him.

The Rational goblin slowly grinned at Edward, but there Edward did not budge in the least.

"Son of man, do you want to play?"

"No, I'll beat you up."

'Life!'

Hearing that, the rational goblin laughed loudly before he finally looked back at Edward with his big eyes.

But the grin expression on his face momentarily turned irritated, for a moment the goblin seemed to close its eyes and then said.

"You look like that kid. All right, since you already reminded me of him I'll take your hit once."

"Then you must regret this."

"Stop Edward! Run away!"

"...Oye! Did you hear?!"

Rational goblin who did not move even a little as if to show that he did not need any preparation for the blow Edward.

On the other hand the citizens began to beg Edward to leave, and I myself felt proud to see Edward at this time.

'I thought he had potential!'

It could be seen that Edward was doing the horses and was going to do the simple boxing moves I had taught him before.

It was all done well, then when I noticed him he said back to the rational goblin.

"I kept doing this exercise for the past few weeks! An even scarier monster has taught me!"

"AHAHA! Which monster has taught the human child?! Tell me what he's like!"

BUKS!

Because Edward was so small, his punch only reached the knees of a rational goblin. Then the silence came back after Edward did it all, and the rational goblin still looked fine.

"HAHAHAHA! I knew it was nothing! Then it's my turn, boy!"

"That's enough, Edward! Run away!"

The rational goblin started to raise his fist and the panicked-looking Edward started to look shaky and unable to run.

The anxious citizens tried to run towards Edward, but the pain that enveloped their bodies made them unable to move.

When the punch wanted to land, the rational goblin suddenly fell and knelt down because one of its legs was broken. Right, it was Edward's earlier blow.

Edward seemed to not believe that his attack had really worked, and that the rational goblin was shouting loudly.

"Araghhh! Goddamnit! Quickly finish off this human child!"

Hearing that, the lower goblins began to run towards Edward with various weapons in his hand.

I quickly darted to repel all of those attacks, however I would not let a strong child seem to die this fast.

'Yes, even though I'm still a kid anyway.'

A BLAR!

My lesion produced a very loud bang, the ground debris and the dust that flew over made them all cover his face.

When the goblins were still shocked and thinking about what was going on, I quickly finished off some of the lower goblins around me as well as the villagers.

The sound of blood splashes and the cries of goblins could be heard at that moment all was invisible because of the smoke dust that enveloped this area.

When the dust came back down, some goblins began to panic and immediately prepared to counterattack.

But that all changed when they saw me who was already holding one of the heads of the lower goblins I just finished off.

I was thinking about how to get into this battle arena with epic and cool, but it looks like it's just terrible.

I finally threw the goblin's head in front of the rational goblin whose leg was broken earlier.

"If you ask who the monster taught him, it's me."

"...Oh!!! How can you be here?!"

"Take this as fate among us, but you need to know that this village is now my territory. In other words it's mine."

"...D-d-damn it! B-but you should also know that this time ..I came with the king!"

"King?"

When I wondered what he was saying, I could hear that there was a growing noise and shock coming, then it was getting closer.

The lower goblins that were swarming in front of me began to open the road very wide, there I finally could see what this rational goblin meant.

"Well! Now what are you going to do?! We won't be afraid and faint like that back then! HAHAHA!"

A goblin whose height this time was larger than the rational monster himself, he had a body of a deep red color that was different from other goblins who had a pale red color.

Not forgetting the two large horns, but it was nothing compared to the Aoryu horn.

"AHAHA! Are you scared"

Cratzes!

Not waiting for the rational goblin's words, I-darted into the face of this big goblin with my fist, and just then his head was completely crushed and both of his horns fell to the ground along with his huge body.

"I thought he could put up with my fist, but as I thought it was too weak. Even though his body is big he is a lower monster right? Does he deserve to call you king?"

"...N-can't be.."

Seeing that it made some goblins panic instantly and thousands of these goblins became chaotic, some of them ran back towards the mountain, some were furious and then came forward to fight me.

While the rational goblin whose leg was broken was instantly mute and his expression was greatly shaken.

But before the goblins who ran over me arrived, this broken-footed rational goblin shouted loudly.

"STOP IT! STOPIT! STOP THAT!"

Unfortunately some rational goblins other than himself still run towards me and still want to attack me.

'Didn't he listen to his friend?'

I'm sure now this broken-footed rational goblin knows his limits. He who knew it seemed to want to tell the other goblins that they could not win, but unfortunately it was too late.

I began to finish off the stubborn goblins that came attacking me simultaneously.

"It's interesting, but this time I won't let out my magic aura so you don't faint again."

Unknowingly I had repulsed these thousands of goblins far enough out of the village, in this meadow I continued to dance with the weak goblins under the moonlight.

Blood splashes and body parts of goblins flying also decorate the sky tonight in addition to the stars.

'But they seem to have no end.'

Yeah, it pisses me off a little. It is only natural that their numbers cannot be counted easily, therefore I also intend to end all this with the dragon breath that I have.

OHHUSH!!!

Before long I opened my mouth, a very bright white burst of flames made the surrounding area very bright, and I had unknowingly burned almost all parts of this vast prairie.

There were mostly goblins who seemed to have survived because they had made it into the forest at the foot of the Hell Mountain Range, while here only left one goblin's life, the national goblin whose leg was broken.

I walked up to him, and he immediately bowed his head with his body trembling violently.

"...M-forgive me! ...W-we didn't know that this countryside was yours!"

Hearing that made me smile and have a better idea.

"I'll forgive you on some condition."

"...Whatever it is! Whatever I'm gonna do!"

"good. After you return with the other goblins, tell them that I will be your king now."

"Yes! W-of course sir!"

"That's great, and then tomorrow morning you should come back to clean up all the mess you've done."

"Well! Yes sir!"

"I want this village to be stronger, and destroy anyone who dares to touch this village!"

"D-understandable!"

"That's great, now go. But before that..."

I also healed this goblin rational leg with one of the magic I created recently, this is a magic that I previously said was quite terrible.

Slowly I reached out my hand and from there appeared a magic circle with a white light.

'I call it Rewind.'

It is a magic capable of restoring the condition of its user's body or the targeted time before, but at the moment I still don't know how long the time limit is.

After that the rational goblin ran fast and now only leaves me with a dying citizen along with Edward.

'Looks like I should rewind them too.'
