Leveling Murderer - Chapter 21

 Episode 21: Making a Decision.

 

“Alliance? What does that mean?”

Hosoya-san wrinkled her brow.

 

“It's exactly what the word says.”

I continued my conversation in front of Hosoya-san, who looked at me suspiciously.

“I can't use the spell to detect a murderer. So if a murderer tries to kill me, unless I'm very lucky, they will kill me first.”

 

“......”

Hosoya-san, the one who failed to kill me, kept her mouth shut.

 

“That's where Hosoya-san comes in. I want you to tell me the description and location of the murderer you have sensed.”

That way, I can be out of danger.

 

“So that's what an alliance is. So, what are you going to do for me, Onizuka-kun?”

“I'll let you live.”

“What? I don't understand. Are you kidding me?”

“You'd better not talk back to me. I can use a death spell, so all I have to do is think of the name and face of the person I want to kill and recite the spell and I can easily kill them.”

Of course, I can't use such a spell.

The only spells I can use are recovery, antidote, and detect bad guys.

 

“W-What, you're threatening me!”

But Hosoya-san, who was not aware of such a thing, could not hide her agitation.

 

“You said you wouldn't kill me. You said you'd forgive me.”

“I won't kill you if you listen to me, Hosoya-san.”

“That's not fair!”

I know it's cowardly of me, but it's for survival. I can’t afford to lose my life.

 

“So, what do you want to do? Are you going to form an alliance with me?”

“Fuc....”

While glaring at me, Hosoya-san bites her bottom lip in resentment.

 

“Come on, decide.”

“......... I-I understand, Alright.”

Hosoya-san reluctantly accepted my proposal, hoping that it would help her to survive.

 

Then, out of the blue, Hosoya-san grabbed the mug in front of her.

 

Gulp~

She drank the tea that was probably already cold all at once.

And then.

“I want a refill.”

She puts her mug down with a slam on the table.

 

“Didn't you just say something about poisoning?”

“If you could kill me just by thinking about it, you wouldn't have bothered to poison me. Just give me another one.”

“Okay, okay.”

 

As Hosoya-san looks somewhat refreshed, I reflect on how I may have cornered her a little too much.

 

  

 

“Um...... Hosoya-san, I'm done with the conversation, can you leave now?”

“No.”

 

She asked for refills on her tea five times.

As the clock struck 9:00 p.m., I tried to ask Hosoya-san to leave, but she showed no sign of leaving.

 

“You had a date, right? You're going to be late.”

“It's fine.”

Hosoya-san rolled around on the carpet as if she were drunk.

 

“Onizuka-kun is evil!”

“Please don't get upset. I won't threaten you anymore, so please leave for real.”

“You said that, but you're going to kill me!”

Hosoya-san points at me in a lispy tone. Her face is slightly red.

 

She is not really drunk, is she?

“Huh......? Is there alcohol in this tea?”

As I was putting away the box of tea packs, I saw the words [3% alcohol].

 

“Oh, my God.”

I can't believe it was a tea with alcohol......

 

“fufufu”

 

When I checked on her, Hosoya-san rolled up in the carpet and looked like a bagworm.

And she's trying to eat the carpet itself.

 

“What the hell are you doing? That’s dirty.”

Hosoya-san, who is weak from alcohol and has lost all sense of reason.

 

“Come on, you can't eat that. Leave it, please.”

“NO!!”

“Hey, don't scream so loud.”

“Amu Amu...”

“Don't bite my hand.”

“Guh......”

“Don't fall asleep, please.”

 

Not being able to force Hosoya-san out of the house after she had completely transformed into an infant, I had no choice but to let her stay the night.
