This demon is highly suspicious.

The fog in the air seemed to have gotten thicker.

"Did you shake them off?"

After running for a while, the tanuki monster, still shaken, stopped and observed.

Although it doesn't like fighting, and was beaten up by Reiko in the last battle, it is still quite confident in its speed.

After observing for a while, the tanuki monster, realizing that the steel man seemed to have fallen behind, let out a long sigh.

That's really scary. I'll have to talk to the princess about it later.

Turning around, a steel bar swung down.

"!!!!!!!!!"

As the steel bar hurtled toward its face, the tanuki monster's mind flashed with unforgettable scenes from the past.

The tanuki monster once read in a human book that this kind of death replay is your brain replaying all the knowledge you've learned and seen in the past, trying to find a way to help you escape this calamity.

But the raccoon felt that it might not be able to find this method.

The tanuki considered itself a very self-aware monster.

Not good at fighting............

Okay, actually it's just a noob.

It can't beat anyone; even a kappa on the roadside can bully it.

Aside from living a long life, they have no other merits.

Given the current situation, it feels that it is highly likely to be gone.

There is virtually no chance of survival.

Just lie down and hope your death won't be too gruesome.

At this critical juncture—

"Wait a minute!"

A trident flew out of nowhere and knocked away the steel bars of Steel Man Nanase, causing him to stumble.

After a moment of stunned silence, the tanuki quickly scrambled to its feet and sped away from the monster.

Even while escaping, he didn't forget to look back at his savior.

With his back to the streetlights, the figure remained in a throwing posture.

It was clear that he was the one who threw that trident.

Slightly narrowing its eyes, the tanuki monster made out the figure.

He looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, very young.

It also has a cow-and-cat figurine on its head that looks quite wise.

It seems to be a monster as well?

"That's it."

"Next, it's you."

Rascal raised his index finger and a wildly unrestrained smile appeared on his face.

He looks exactly like a blond vampire who has lived for over a hundred years.

"What is this guy doing?"

Gabriel, watching Rorschach's expression from afar, slowly typed a question mark.

Something seems off about this guy's art style.

"Hmph, hahahaha."

Covering his face, Luo Xia let out a loud, booming laugh and said:

"As expected, there are limits to human capabilities."

"I'm not human anymore! Gabriel!"

Rorschach pulled a stone mask from behind his back and shouted.

"You're not even human, you idiot."

Chapter 113 Gabriel: I Need More Money

As we all know!

The power of language is terrifying.

The same goes for rumors.

A single person saying something might be a lie, but when ten thousand people say it, the lie becomes the truth.

Especially in this particular world context.

A female celebrity who died under mysterious circumstances is transformed into a monster that appears at night and attacks other people amidst online rumors.

There's nothing wrong with me, Rorschach, using the power of the internet to maintain a Stone Mask, is there?

"I'm not human anymore!! Gabriel!!!!"

Rorschach pulled out the Stone Mask from behind his back and, laughing, stuck it onto his face.

At this moment, he still had a shout on his head.

Well, that's right.

Rorschach has now decided to name this not-so-bright cow cat.

Although considering the cat's intelligent eyes, the name "not very smart" is quite fitting.

But then Rorschach thought to himself, if he were to adopt this cat in the future, wouldn't he become a rather unwise adopter?

emmmmmm.....................

Never mind, I'll just let it make a sound anyway.

This is good for everyone.

"You weren't even human, you idiot demon."

Seeing Rorschach's excitement, Gabriel, who didn't get the joke, couldn't help but complain.

What is this ugly-looking mask?

Does wearing it transform you?

If you, a demon, and I, an angel, say you're no longer human, should I just purify you and send you away?

While inwardly complaining, Gabriel watched Rorschach remain in the position of wearing the Stone Mask for several seconds.

Quiet~~~~~~~

An eerie silence fell over the air, and for a moment the scene was strangely harmonious.

Tilting her head and staring at Luo Xia for a few seconds, Steel Man Nanase tentatively reached out towards her steel bar.

Although she didn't know what kind of creature this was, all she wanted to do now was continue hunting down the raccoon.

The moment Steel Man Nanase reached out his hand, Rorschach gently flicked his middle and index fingers together.

The crimson trident stuck in the ground instantly transformed from hard to soft.

It bound Steel Man Nanase together like a long rope.

The binding technique was quite skillful, and it was obvious that Rorschach had studied this kind of knowledge extensively.

Meanwhile, Luo Xia, somewhat embarrassed, removed the stone mask from the dam.

"This thing seems to require blood."

According to the setting, the Stone Mask will only eject its spikes after it comes into contact with blood.

Obviously, the spikes cannot be ejected without blood.

We need blood...

After stroking his chin and thinking for a few seconds, Rorschach looked at Gabriel beside him and said:

"Gabriel, give me some blood."

"can."

Raising an eyebrow, Gabriel reached under her skirt and pulled out a longbow.

He drew his bow and nocked an arrow, aiming the sharp arrow of light at Rorschach's head.

You want blood, right?

Easy, I'll make a hole for you right away.

"Wait, wait! That's not what I meant!"

Luo Xia waved his hands repeatedly and said hurriedly.

joke!

That's not what I meant at all!

After the explanation, Gabriel roughly understood what the guy meant.

Basically, they want their own blood.

Why not use his blood?

I'm afraid of pain.

Probably that's it.

"I refuse. Give up."

"I'll offer 10,000 yen."

"...This is the blood of an angel! How could I possibly give it to you like this?!"
