Demon Swordsman of the East

We’ve caused a commotion on the street.
They were the two bad guys who had once sold Clara to the slavers.
The three Otto brothers are famous in this city for being tag-along evil. The oldest brother was nowhere to be found, but the second Lott, and the youngest Mott, were of some status.
I read their latest misdeeds and made it known to the onlookers so that I could be on the side of justice in condemning the evil and not be noticed as a wanted man.
Now, let the heaven’s punishment begin.
However, there are two opponents. I can only read one person’s abilities at a time.
But, well, it’s two against two this time, so no worries.
“Clara, you take care of Mott. I’ll take care of Lott. ”
“Understood, brother.”
We took off at the same time – towards lott.
Clara and I bumped into each other.
“Hey, Mott’s over there!”
“Hmm? Is that so? I don’t know which one is who.”
Oh, I see.
Since the other side knew Clara’s name, I naturally assumed that Clara knew it too.
While they were making a fuss, the brothers turned and ran away at once.
“Hey, get out of my way.”
“You’re in my way.”
They ran away while hitting spectators.
Not wanting to be rushed, the onlookers neatly split into two and made their way.
No, there was one person who didn’t move.
He is at least a head taller than me. He looks skinny but is muscular. If you look closely, you can see two horns growing out of his black hair. The man with the narrow eyes and grin had four thin, unfamiliar swords at his waist.
“Get out of the way!”
“I said get out of the way!”
The two brothers, Lot and Mott, rushed forward in unison. And then…
“Sorry, I’m just trying to do my job.”
His large hand did not reach for the sword at his hip.
He grabbed Lott’s head with his right hand and Mott’s with his left. He lifted them up as they were.
“Whoa.”
“Release me!”
The brothers clung to the man’s arms and flapped their feet, unable to bear the thought of losing their heads.
The man asks matter-of-factly.
“Did you guys really steal the Golden Statue of the Great Mother from Ms. Loggins’ house?”
“Yes! It hurts! It’s cracking my head!”
“Yes, we did it! Let me go!
The brothers grabbed him as hard as they could and easily admitted their guilt.
“Hmm. So? Where are your things?”
“To the safe house!”
“Buried under the floor, sir!”
The man’s eyes narrowed even more, and he started to walk forward.
It seems he wanted to see us.
But I didn’t want to get involved with this guy.

He looked rather old, but he was actually 28 years old.
But what a high status!
He has three unique skills. He’s a top-notch swordsman with three unique skills, all of which work well together for a physical attack type.
And the title is noteworthy.
Bounty hunters don’t take kindly to wanted men.
So far. They don’t know I’m Mel Lylute from The Priest Killer, but if they get involved, they’ll find out. I’m a professional.
Musashi, the demon man, stopped right in front of us and smashed the brothers’ heads together. The brothers went limp and quiet, and he dropped them with a thud on the spot.
“Well, I was lucky, wasn’t I? That’s 500,000 Golds just for this.”
“Huh, huh!……”
“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s not fair for me to take all the money. You’re the ones who figured out that these two guys are the culprits. How about it? We’ll split the money 50-50.”
“No, no, we’re not here for the prize money……”
“What? Seriously? Are you sure you don’t want it?”
“Oh, yes.”
“Yeah? Oh, I see. Well, the 500,000 Gold was actually the prize for finding the Golden Statue of the Great Mother. When we caught the culprit, we got another 1 million Gold. Wow, I’ve made a lot of money.”
“Yeah, I knew that. I read your information.”
“Well, I guess I’ll turn over to the guards and collect my stuff.”
Musashi-san was getting excited.
There’s just so many gaps.
So–
I took a wobbly step forward.
I read and stole the abilities of the unwary Musashi-San. Then…..
“I’ll borrow it for a moment.”
I pulled out one of the swords he had at his waist.
It’s a strange sword.
A thin, single-edged sword called “Katana”. It seemed to be a weapon from a far eastern country.
I immediately leapt behind Musashi-San.
Clank!
In the midst of the crowd of spectators
The stocky man’s face stiffened.
He is Sotto, the eldest of the three Otto brothers. He has been trying to attack Musashi-san since his brothers were in trouble.
Although his unique skill, “Concealment,” has a rank of D, he was able to eliminate the killing intent in the crowd and was unnoticed even by Musashi-San, a top-notch swordsman.
I performed “Mountain Deer’s Pace”. I kicked the ground as hard as I could, my body became as light as a feather and I swooped down on Sotto.
“F*ck.”
Sotto threw the bogan body at me. I can see the whole thing beforehand, so I can cut him in half with my katana. Keeping the momentum, I switched the blade to the opposite side and hit Sotto in the side of the head. As expected, I was hesitant to slash him.
“Geez!”
Sotto blew up and rolled his eyes. I hit him with a blunt object. If I hadn’t gone easy on him, he’d be dead.
I let out a breath and heard the sound of applause crackling in my ears.
“You’re amazing. You’ve got good body language. I wonder if you used a similar skill to mine in that move. I mean, it’s just like the Mountain Deer’s Pace, isn’t it? No no, It’s amazing.”
“But,” he said, tilting his head as if troubled.
“For a warrior, the weapon is a part of his body. It can be called an alter ego. If you use it without permission, you’ll have a lot of problems.”
“Oh, I’m sorry…….”
“No, I don’t care about that. I have a sword, which is rare around here, but it’s a mass-produced sword without an inscription. I was going to ask you to pay for it if you broke it, though.”
Musashi-San mischievously winked at me, but I couldn’t make it out because of his narrow eyes.
“You’ve got a pretty good handle on the sword, by the way. Who taught you that?”
“Eh, no, um, you know……”
I can’t say, “I stole your ability,” and I feel sluggish.
“I still have a spare. If you don’t want it, you can sell it. As I said before, they’re rare here, so they’ll fetch a fair price.”
“Are you sure?’
It’s true that this sword is worth about 150,000 Gold.
It’s a small price to pay for my share of the prize money, though. I don’t know if this brother is a good guy or a bad guy.
Anyway, let’s not get involved anymore.
I thanked him for his help and quickly left the place.
I wanted to get across the border, preferably today.
With that in mind, though, I returned to the inn where I had left the carriage.
A man and a woman in armor and an old man in robes were talking near our carriage, and I didn’t know them at all.
“Are you sure?” said a beautiful woman with red hair.
The old man in the robe said, “Yes, this carriage is owned by the church.”
“So there’s no doubt that the boy Mel Lylute is in town” said the big man.
They seems to have come looking for me, and the old man in the robes seems to have a rank B “Appraisal” skill.
