A dull longsword and a heartbroken villager

"That's right, it must be him. One eye, two swords, and a tattoo on the back of his hand. I heard he has a lot of tattoos all over his body."

"A 'Demon Hunter'... Why would someone like that come here?"

"I really hope he leaves soon."

"What a terrifying guy, he looks so fierce."

"I heard that when he was carrying out his commissions, he often killed his targets brutally, and dismemberment was common."

"That's terrifying."

Bray's lips twitched, and a million curses were running through his mind.

"Demon Hunter"? What the hell is that?

When did I get such a vicious nickname?

“Whoa, Mr. 'Demon Hunter' Bray!” Naruko mocked Bray.

"Tsk." Bray glanced at Naruko with displeasure.

Levy, on the other hand, was curiously observing everything in the Adventurers' Guild.

Every time Levy comes to this place, it's a completely new experience.

Because the members of the Adventurers' Guild are different each time, and the setup is also different.

"Excuse me, do you have any requests other than those listed on the notice board?" Bray tapped on the front desk.

"Eh... 'Demon Hunter'! No, no, no, hello." The receptionist tensed up instantly when she saw Bray's expression.

"..." Bray was speechless.

“Before I look for a commission, I have a question to ask,” Bray sighed.

"May I ask you something?" The receptionist straightened her back without realizing it.

"How terrifying! The 'Demon Hunter' is so scary!"

"What should I do? What did he just ask? I didn't hear a thing!"

"What would happen if I said I didn't hear it? I'd die! I'd definitely die!"

Bray had no idea that the receptionist was having so much going on inside her head at that moment.

"Hey, hey," Bray called out a few times.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!" The receptionist exclaimed in surprise.

"How did I get called a 'Demon Hunter'?" Bray asked the receptionist helplessly.

"Huh?" The receptionist was stunned for a full minute.

"So this is your nickname."

“That’s not what I meant. I want to know why I’m called that,” Bray continued to press.

"This..." The receptionist looked around and then at Bray.

"Will you kill me if I tell you?" the receptionist tried to ask.

"No..." Bray was too lazy to even show any expression.

"Pfft—" Naruko couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"He not only kills people, he eats people, but unfortunately he won't eat me." Naruko touched her face and said regretfully.

"Speak less and no one will think you're mute." Legend has it that there was a C-rank adventurer who possessed strength far exceeding that of a B-rank adventurer.

His name is Bray.

Kras.

However, this adventurer had no intention of advancing and remained at the C-rank adventurer level.

Rumor has it that this guy simply enjoys torturing targets in easy missions, which is why he doesn't get promoted.

High-level adventurers are too embarrassed to lower themselves to do low-level quests.

So Bray

Kras simply became a C-rank adventurer, slaughtering low-level monsters and enemies.

What a psychologically twisted person he is.

—In fact, Bray was unable to be promoted because he did not contribute enough.

Of course, this is not the only reason for the "Demon Hunter".

The title "Demon Hunter" is not because of Bray.

Claes is a hunter who slays demons, but this refers to the man as a hunter as terrifying as a demon.

No one knows exactly how he lost his left eye, but some people have said that he ate the eyeball himself when he went crazy.

—In reality, Bray didn't have the perverse pleasure of eating his own eyeballs.

And "Demon Hunter" Bray

Claes' right eye is the most memorable.

That was his lifeless right eye, filled with a bloodthirsty desire, as if nothing but killing could motivate him.

—But Bray's only problem is that his eyes look dead.

The tattoos all over his body are probably a record of this "demon hunter" slaughtering his prey.

Each time, people would discover the "Demon Hunter" Bray.

Klass has gotten some new tattoos.

Each additional tattoo reminds people of another victim he has tortured and murdered.

Some people have seen him with a circular tattoo at first, and later some said he changed to a snake-shaped tattoo, but the traces of the previous circular tattoo are still there.

It feels like they just ripped off the old tattoo and etched a new one on top.

Now, people have discovered that he has a lion tattoo on the back of his hand.

It's chilling; I can't imagine what that tattoo on the back means—no, I should say I dare not even imagine it.

—Bray the tattoo artist also expressed his grievances, saying he didn't want to think about it so much.

Two old, worn-out swords, stained with countless drops of blood.

The reason why the "Demon Hunter" is reluctant to replace these two nearly broken swords is probably because he is still attached to the bloodstains on them.

The two swords, dull and chipped, were completely unusable and covered in a thick layer of blood.

—Although in a sense it’s not wrong to say that.

He was vicious and bloodthirsty; he looked more like a bandit or an executioner than an adventurer.

His fighting style is also unsettling; he would smash an enemy with a dulled sword when he could easily kill them.

The battlefield is always littered with blood; who knows if it's human blood or monster blood?

Even without seeing it with one's own eyes, people can imagine the hideous smile and bloodthirsty frenzy of the "Demon Hunter" as it hunts.

A terrifying adventurer, an outcast among adventurers, this is the "Demon Hunter," the very name of Bray.

Kras.

At this moment, Bray's eyebrows were twitching wildly, and he was experiencing great emotional turmoil.

What is this? Where did this criminal escape from?

"Stop!!! Let me calm down." Bray interrupted the receptionist.

Where should I even begin to complain? No, the entire introduction is open to criticism.

No, no, no, I should say that this isn't even about myself at all.

"Ah! Don't be angry! Please don't be angry!" The receptionist immediately covered her head and crouched down in defense.

“I…” Bray hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

"Pfft, hahahahahaha!!!" Naruko laughed heartlessly.

“‘Demon Hunter’, what a terrifying guy, who is he?” Naruko said to Bray with a smile.

"..." Bray rubbed his forehead, feeling like a million grass mud horses were galloping through his mind.

"Stand up first..."

"Okay...okay." The receptionist trembled.

Bray stared at the receptionist for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

"Um, you..." The receptionist felt her life was in serious danger.

"He probably won't kill anyone in the Adventurers' Guild again, right?"

"But what if he's in the alley..."

"How scary, how scary, how scary."

Bray couldn't imagine that the receptionist had so many thoughts running through her mind.

"I'm not that ruthless," Bray finally said after a long pause.

"Yes, yes." The receptionist nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"No ruthless person would say they are ruthless."

Unfortunately, she was still uneasy.

Driven by an extremely strong will to survive, she managed to force a professional smile.

"Alright, let's not worry about my nickname anymore." Bray sighed deeply.

"Demon Hunter" it is, at least it sounds alright.

"Could you give me some low-level jobs with decent pay?"

"Yes, yes."

Driven by a survival instinct, the receptionist quickly flipped through the service record book.

All the commissions that weren't posted on the notice board are included here.

"Yes, there is one that suits you."

"Please take a look!" The receptionist respectfully handed the notebook to Bree.

“…” Bray’s lips twitched.

"There are three in total, please choose one."

"No! Let me introduce them to you!" The receptionist quickly changed her mind, thinking that letting Bray choose for himself might upset him.

"This is the first batch, processing a large number of Miqiu Rabbits."

Miko Rabbit is a monster that is aggressive, but has extremely weak attack power.

However, these monsters reproduce too quickly; their population can double in a single season.

It has a great impact on people's daily life and work.

"You need to burn down the Riceball Rabbit's nest, and also take the begging Riceball Rabbit with you."

Let's skip this one.

Bray really didn't want to face the rabbit sea.

"The second document is about escorting prisoners."

“Skip it.” Bray had absolutely no desire to deal with prisons or anything like that.

Having been imprisoned and having broken into prison, Bray chose to avoid this job.

"The last one is for keeping watch in a town," the receptionist said.

"It seems that monsters have been appearing in that town at night recently, and adventurers are needed to keep watch."

However, it's impossible to hire high-level adventurers for the night watch, so we can only hire low-level ones.

However, because it involves working through the night, the pay is exceptionally high.
